-Chapter 2: UA, a Green-Haired Hero Boy, and a Brown-Haired Gravity Girl-
The Present Day, 2149
Days before the physical exam, Goku was training, bench pressing cars and moving anything to help build up his strength for the upcoming exam. He was routinely reminded to also study up on his courses to make sure that he can pass the written exams that was coming up tomorrow. As a gift for all the hard work that he had done, both academically and physically, his parents bought him an orange gi, with a turtle kanji on both the back and a small patch on his left as a present, making the teenage boy super happy.
The UA Written Exam was child's play, handled by a Heroine wearing BDSM gear and a weird looking Hero who can clone himself in a giant lecture hall, like you'd see in a University. Many questions, multiple long-written answers, and about three hours later, the Written Exam had reached its conclusion. Now came the hard part of waiting for that Physical Exam to come within two days. Unfortunately, the boy couldn't get a good bead on anybody aside from the Heroine and the multiple clones of that other Hero, since it was so boring his mind kind of slept away the minor details.
The day had finally came, of which Goku felt his heart beat in excitement. As the mass of Hero-To-Be's were approaching the auditorium at UA, he was sprinting in excitement, accidentally bumping into a nervous, shy green-haired boy. Before the green-haired boy even fell, a hand touched him as he floated in place.
"Oops, sorry there, kid! I guess I was too excited!" Goku scratched the back of his hand, giggling a little nervously as he helped the boy right himself. He looks at the boy, who was looking back at him with nervousness, admiration, and fear of this stranger. Actually, this kid seems familiar somehow, Goku had thought, studying the boy.
"W-wow, you're fast..." the young boy nervously spits out, softly. He soon felt himself weighed back down, as the girl deactivated her Quirk.
"It's a bad omen to trip and fall before a big event, you know!" the brown-haired girl said, the boy looking away, looking super nervous to even be within her presence while she was beaming with a great smile. "My Quirk, Zero Gravity, was why you didn't fall onto your face when he accidentally bumped you!"
"Hey, good luck to you two!" Goku said in his excitement, the brown haired girl and the green haired boy both nod and wave back.
"Good luck to you two, as well! I'm sure you'll do fantastic!" she replied back, a warm smile met the two.
"Y-yeah... Good luck to you two, as well...!" the boy replied nervously as he slinked off towards the auditorium.
"Those bastards... Do they seriously think they can beat me? Especially that pathetic weakling, Deku?!" a blonde kid said, in a hushed, yet angered voice as he stares daggers at Goku and the boy he called Deku, whom he held a grudge for their school life.
Upon entering the auditorium, there was a singular man with blonde hair standing all the way up, a large mic surrounding his lower face, and some gaudy-looking shades that'd befit a radio DJ. And upon hearing the man speak, Goku felt his ears were going to rupture, as he closed his ears with his hands, yelping.
"WELCOME, ALL! To the UA ENTRANCE PHYSICAL EXAAAM!" The loud-mouthed Hero, Present Mic yelled. "Can I get a HEEEEEEEEEEEEEY?!" And there was nothing. However, it did nothing to stop the Radio Personality from shrugging. "Alright, you're all a bunch of rambunctious tykes, ready to hit the big shows! Can I get a YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAH for that?" Again, nothingness. He still shrugged with a wide grin on his face, as the auditorium lights shut off and there's only Mic and a Presentation playing out. "Now it's time to get the fun part after getting past the Written Exams! Your objective is to destroy as many robots as you can before it's all over!"
Present Mic then shows the robots in a presentation, appearing as Mic announces them. Goku, unfortunately, doesn't know what those things are, but they kinda look silly. He was not aware that Mic decided to use Super Mario sprites to represent these robots. "One Pointers! These tiny bots are mobile, but they can overpower normal people with ease! The Two Pointers! These creepy crawlies will make you regret your life choices and then some if they get the drop on you! Three Pointers! These tank-like bots will take everything and pay it back, so be ready for an exhilirating match-up against them if you want their sweet points!" And then... "THE ZERO POINTERS! Just avoid them! They are worthless!" The giant group murmured a bit, though they fell silent as the walking microphone cleared his throat.
"We shall split in groups and conduct these exams in your designated grounds!" Goku was designated in Battle Zone 2, alongside the green-haired boy and the chestnut-haired girl, among many more, including a stock serious guy with glasses on and exhaust pipes coming from his legs glaring right at the other kid, a pretty blonde boy with a weird belt on his waist, and a floating bunch of clothing in the shape of a human girl.
"WELL, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! DISASTERS DON'T WAIT FOR ANYONE! GO, GO, GO!" Mic belted out.
Soon, everyone rushed into the battlefield, with the orange gi-clad man leading the charge. Goku started to strike the robots, earning many points for every robot he destroyed. The other kids looked at Goku on occasion, shocked with how many he's handling them all with his bare hands, not even the three-pointers can do anything to him due to his incredible agility. He looks at the green haired kid with disappointment when he's avoiding every robot, destroying a two-pointer that nearly got to him.
"C'mon, kid! You gotta be willing to use your Quirk or else you'll fail!" He yelled towards the boy as he continues on his onslaught. The boy simply whimpered, not sure what to do and how to do it.
However, by the three minute mark, Present Mic releases the zero-pointer robots. It wasn't a tiny robot. It was absolutely gigantic, easily over a hundred feet tall in height. However, before he could register the giant thing coming nearby, the dance of battle Goku was in was interrupted by a shill scream of pain.
"Help! I'm stuck!" The chestnut-brown haired girl screamed. Her lower body was pinned by some debris, whatever her Quirk was, it seemed she couldn't use it. Regardless, Goku shrugged the thought off and rushes to help her by lifting the debris off her, but he was shocked seeing the previously scared green haired kid running headfirst to the robot, jumping high and landing a devastating punch on the zero-point robot, decimating it. It was at this moment, he saw why he was with the No. 1 Hero, this kid's heroic spirit was beyond what he had expected! However, he started to fall, and Goku, quickly thinking, got the brown-haired girl into his arms and leaped high up so that she used her Quirk on the helplessly injured boy. This ends up exhausting the girl, as after the boy was placed gingerly on the ground, she threw up her lunch. Ew, no wonder why she couldn't get that debris off her lower body, she must have already pushed herself to her limits... Goku thought as he puts her back down gently and waves goodbye.
"AND THAT'S THE END OF THE ENTRANCE EXAM!" Present Mic shouted, signaling the end of the Entrance Exam.
The two look at the now unconscious green-haired boy as he's taken off by a stretcher, with a mix of worry and awe, especially worry for her, as he didn't seem to have scored any points because of her. Their performance was noted by the teachers watching the exams, many of them murmuring about Goku's strength and speed, in addition to his and the green-haired kid's help with saving one of their test mates from the Zero-Pointer. As well as the latter's powerful blow against the Zero-Pointer and his savior being that powerful black-haired boy and the girl. All Might, in particular, eyeballed Ground Beta, specifically looking on at the trio of kids in front of the debris of the Zero Pointer. He had barely remembered the kid in the orange gi from when he stumbled on them back at Takobah, but he saw it for himself. That kid had seemingly limitless potential, and a kind heart, perfect to being a great Hero in the future as he grinned.
"I'm sorry, but I need you to be on a stretcher as well," an old woman said, frowning. "With that heavy of a weight on your lower body, I don't want you to chance it by walking." Another stretcher was summoned as the girl was placed onto it.
"Hmm... That kid's really something, though he injured his legs and arm pretty badly destroying that Zero Pointer..." Goku said to himself, as they leave, he opted to just follow the girl on the stretcher.
"I hope he'll be okay, too. It was unfair of me to deny him or even you those points just to rescue me... What's your name again?" she asked him. "I'm Ochako Uraraka, and thank you for rescuing me alongside Deku!"
"Oh, I'm Son Goku! Nice to meet you, Ochako Uraraka!" Goku replied. "So that green-haired kid's 'Deku'...? Nah, it must be some kind of nickname or something," Goku spoke to himself. He ran off, while Uraraka was taken by stretcher.
After a week, the Son family received mail from UA addressed to Goku. After the three open the envelope, a hologram starts playing.
"DO NOT FEAR, FOR I AM HERE! IN HOLOGRAPHIC FORM!" All Might said, posing in his tacky dress. "Young Son Goku, it's with great pleasure to say that you have passed the Entrance Exam with flying colors! Your powerful blows against the robots was admirable, but your rescue and teamwork with Ochako Uraraka and Izuku Midoriya showcases a great promise of a Hero! So much so, that Miss Uraraka actually wanted to give you and Mister Midoriya her points!" The scene in the hologram shifted to one, where, infront of three teachers, Uraraka stood solo.
"Hey... I have a request. Please give Deku-kun and Goku-kun my points! They deserve it for saving me from that Zero-Pointer!" Uraraka pleaded.
"Miss Uraraka. I'm sorry, but that cannot happen. You've earned your points and we will not reallocate them away from you," a female teacher said. However, a small grin came from her face.
"Young Uraraka, you must realize that there's more to Heroics than just simply destroying those robots. However, seeing you come before us and request us to give them your points...? That also speaks highly of your inner Hero." All Might beamed.
"Wait... so Deku-kun and Goku-kun passed?" Uraraka said, shocked.
"That was a spoiler, Miss Uraraka." A tired voice pointed out, he was grinning. "But yes, they have passed. Now, please go back home. It's illogical for you to stay here for any longer."
The scene fades back to just one with All Might.
"Back on schedule, though. You've accumulated a score total of 120 points: 56 Villain Points and 64 Rescue Points; you placed first in the Physical Exam and your Written Exam was within the top tenth percentile! It is with these results that you are a part of Class 1A at UA High School! In addition, I shall be teaching at UA myself, so I hope to see your aspiring spirit at UA when the time comes! Go beyond, Plus Ultra! Alright, how many more do I have to make?" The hologram ends. Gohan and Mikai look at Goku with tears of joy streaming down their eyes. Not only did he get into UA, but All Might himself complimented on how he had helped save his fellow test mates. Goku felt a great elation as he puts down the hologram.
"Goku, we're so proud of you!" The two said in unison. "I think this deserves a feast! I'll make your absolute favorite!" Mikai said, as she started to get to work. The teenager practically salivates, as he always loved Mikai's orange-infused dishes.
"You've done us proud, Goku. But most of all," Gohan said as he placed his hand on his chest. "You've done yourself proud. This is your training and your education paying for itself, and never forget that. Be sure to play well, to live well, and always remember to practice peace before you practice war, because peace is what will help your career as a Hero!" An hour later, Goku and his family ate a gargantuan feast. It was nothing to him, but the two parents still ate well enough.
AN: The inspiration behind Gohan and Mikai's name was me trying to follow up on Toriyama's naming convention, which as mostly foodstuffs. Gohan was obvious, taking Grandpa Gohan, chopping off the Grand part, then giving him a Quirk based on rice, specifically Mochi. Mikai is actually a corruption of the word "Mikan", which is a Japanese citrus fruit. Fittingly, her Quirk is like Mitsuki Bakugou's Quirk, in that she can secrete oils. However, Mikai's variation allows her to embed her citrus oils within anything, mostly food she makes for her husband and adopted son. Speaking of such, I had decided to make Mikai and Mitsuki first cousins after giving Mikai the citrus oils Quirk, mostly due to the nature of their skin oil quirks being too similar. However, Gohan and Mineta are not related, even if their Quirks are similar in ability.
