"You.. you broke your arm?!" Midoriya exclaimed as she inspected Kendou's body, the red head's left arm in a sling. "How?!"
"I…. kinda underestimated just how bad the backlash would actually be…" The girl laughed quietly, pulling away and turning to walk down the path as Izumi trailed behind. "All Might wasn't kidding when he said it was intense."
"Yeah but bone breaking!? I thought…." The greenette let out a frustrated sigh, catching up and deciding this was an issue to argue with All Might, not Kendou. "What exactly were you doing when you broke it?"
"Oh, well it was right as the exam was about to end. The zero pointer was barrelling down on us, and there was the big crowed of two and three pointers all in front of it. I was kinda worried I wouldn't be high enough in the rankings so I decided to use it…." The girl began to trail off, nervous grin on her face. Sighing, Izumi looked at her expectantly. "I…. brought down the zero pointer on top of all the robots. I may have also demolished a few of the buildings by accident. It was like a whole new quirk! Well… actually I guess technically that's what it was."
"…Well done, Itsuka. Just… well done." The shapeshifter said, shaking her head. "Can't leave you alone for a second."
"Says the girl who manages to explode into chunks every other day!" The red head laughed, shoving the greenette lightly. "So? What about you? Is your placement as uncertain and nerve-wracking as mine or is 'the great prototype' too good for that."
"Oh haha. Keep your voice down about that." Midoriya giggled, as the two walked into the train station. "And it's the fantabulous prototype to you."
"Yes, your majesty." Itsuka teased, sticking her tongue out. "So come on, let's here how It went!"
"Eh, there's really not that much to tell." Izumi shrugged, as the two boarded their train back to Mustafu. They took a booth, both sitting on the same side so Kendou could rest on the smaller girl. "I got to try out a whole bunch of moves I don't really get to utilize as much as I'd like. Oh, I did meet this one girl, Uraraka. Actually, she gave me her number. I kinda hope she gets in."
When she heard the red head gasp, Midoriya knew she made a mistake. The taller girl shot up excitedly, giddy look on her face and already the greenette could see all the incoming teasing. 'Oh no.'
"Oh my god!"
"Don't…"
"My little Izumi is growing up to be a romantic, getting girl's numbers!" Itsuka squealed, wrapping her good arm tight around the shapeshifter as she blushed. "I'm so proud!"
"Please stop…."
"Never! Oh I can't wait until your mom hears!" The red head laughed, and Izumi birefly considered literally melting. "Come on! Tell me about her!"
"Kendou…." Midoriya groaned, only for the girls grip to get tighter. "Itsuka…"
"Come on please?" The taller girl pleaded, pout on her face and the greenette sighed, a teasing smile of her own coming on.
"You're lucky your cute, you know that?"
"Not as cute as you!"
"Flattery will get you nowhere and you know it."
"What, am I not allowed to compliment my best friend?"
"Not when you're only doing it to try to escape my ire for teasing me."
"Fair. Still, come on. Uraraka? What's she like? Is she pretty?" The tall teen pondered and Midoriya nodded, scratching the back of her neck. "Tell me everything."
So she did, and that was how the two spent the majority of their train ride back, discussing a girl they barely knew.
Two weeks after they'd attended the exam, the results had come in. Midoriya had been out, patrolling for one final time and beating down thug after thug with ease, so she didn't know straight away until her phone went off and she'd seen the text from Kendou.
It had simply said to meet her at Dagobah as soon as possible with her results letter. Judging by the excited face on the text though, the greenette could already guess what Itsuka's result had been.
She'd rushed immediately home after that, fortunately not running into any more crimes along the way. She had landed on one of the higher balconies and changed back to her normal blue blouse and black skirt, hurrying home. She pushed the door to her apartment open quickly, excitement on her face and saw Kokoa and Inko both sitting on the couch, shaking in nervous excitement.
"Izumi! It's here!" The blue haired woman called, grabbing the letter and throwing it to the girl with a grin. "I bet you did amazing, sweetie!"
Opening the letter, she found a projector of some description inside and pulled it out, placing it on the table. The three woman leaned in, and suddenly a massive projection of All Might's face appeared.
"AHAHA! I AM HERE! AS A PROJECTION!" The blonde laughed, causing the two taller woman in the room to jump back in fright from the sudden entrance while Midoriya just sat up straight. 'Wait, why is-' "I'm sure you are wondering why I am delivering this message, well the answer is simple, my girl! I am now in a teaching position at U.A high! Of course, you're not on this projection for that, young Midoriya! You want to know how you did. Well, let me just let the number speak for itself! You got…."
He screen flashed and a screen appeared behind All Might, showing the text 'Combat Points' and the number….
"Thirty-nine!" The blonde announced and Midoriya's eye twitched. 'So close to forty….' "Not a bad scoring at all, however on it's own it wouldn't be enough to pass."
The shapeshifter felt her mouth dry, and her eyes widened. 'No… I didn't…'
Then her mentor laughed, gesturing to behind him. "Good thing we have rescue points as well! I'm sure you remember rushing in heroically to save one miss Uraraka from the zero pointer. In the process of doing this, you earned yourself seventy rescue points! As well as that, miss Uraraka's decision to save you from the rubble gave her ten points, and with it you both have managed to succeed. You passed the test young Midoriya! How could a hero course ever turn down someone who acts to save another?!"
A grin started to grow on her face, and she felt two pairs of arms wrap tight around her in excitement. She vaguely registered Kokoa saying something about 'that being our baby'
"And, as if that wasn't enough. With your combined points, you gained a total of one hundred and nine points. The second place ranking overall had only eighty-two points overall, all from combat. Well done, my girl! I- Huh? Yes I'm just wrapping up now- Wait I have to do how many of these?! Oh geez…."
Midoriya laughed at her mentor's antics, the projection fading away and she took a moment to just enjoy this feeling. She was in…. she was going to U.A! She really would be a hero!
"Um, mom? Kokoa? I'd love to stay but Kendou wanted to meet me about her results so…" The greenette excused herself, standing up and beginning to move towards the door. However before she could get far she heard shuffling behind her.
"Wait Izumi! Just, before you go…." Inko started, pulling out a parcel from the back of the couch and placing it on the table with a smile.
"Me and your mom have been working on a little something for you, for when you got in." Her aunt grinned, taking off the lid. Walking over, izumi puled it out and found it was a pure black costume, covered in green stripes all over. It had a bunny like hood with red lenses, a flowery but not so huge it was in the way skirt,, black leggings to protect her modesty and finally, a metal collar of some kind, resembling teeth. "We know you love your costume but you can't exactly go in with it as your main one, so we looked at one of your old notebooks. It's changed up a little, cause you made it before… well you know, but we tried to keep your color scheme in tact."
The greenette was quiet as she looked it over, grin turning to a soft smile as she looked at her aunt and mother, before wrapping them both into a tight hug. "Thank you…."
"Just…. Put it to good use sweetie." Her mother chuckled, placing a hand on her head. "I know you'll make me proud. Now, go see Kendou."
"Right!"
It didn't take her long at all to get to the beach, hurrying as fast as she reasonably could and finding herself atop the steps, looking over the scenery until she spotted her friend and mentor, talking at the edge of the beach.
"Itsuka! All Might!" She called, bounding up to the two with a grin and getting their attention. They smiled back and Kendou rushed forth, wrapping her into a tight hug. "I got in! You?"
"Yup! I can't believe we really did it!" The red head laughed excitedly and Midoriya picked her up, twirling around lightly. "Hahaha! Hey! I get it, your strong!"
"Well done. Both of you," All Might interrupted, a much softer smile on his face as Izumi set down the new One for All user. "I am incredibly proud of both of you, you have no idea."
"Ehehe… thanks. Oh! Wait, I just remembered, you're gonna be a teacher at U.A. now?" The vigilante asked, cocking her head to the side and the man nodded.
"Yes, teaching the hero course. I was already going in before I met either of you, initially to try to find a successor but now, it's simply a fortunate way that I can teach the both of you, even if you won't be in the same class." The blonde explained, and the two girls shared a look of disappointment at that.
"Oh, we're in different classes? I'm 1-A." Midoriya muttered, pulling out her letter to show the taller girl. Sighing, Itsuka pulled out her own, and showed where it said '1-B' "Damn."
"That's a shame." Kendou muttered, turning back to their mentor. "At least we're both in though. We can just see each other at the end of the day."
"That's a positive way to think of it!" All Might laughed. "Now, I don't want to keep you both too long, as I'm sure you have stuff to do and it IS quite late. Young Kendou, I will need to speak with you tomorrow more in-depth about One for All, I do apologise if I failed to warn you as well as I should of. Young Midoriya…. Just be careful. The teachers are already wondering why someone of your calibre wasn't a recommended student, and they are hardly easy to fool. If they see too many similarities between you and your alter-ego, they will find out."
"So, I keep hiding my secret identity like I always have?" Midoriya asked with a grin,, before punching her fist into her palm. "Piece of cake!"
"Say's the girl who ends up revealing it to someone new every week." Kendou said under her breathe, pretending not to notice the look Izumi gave her for the comment. Sighing, the three turned to walk to the entrance of the beach
"So, want to do something on the way back sis?" Midoriya asked, before she realized what she said. After a moment, Kendou's grin turned teasing once more.
"Oh, I don't know sis? Anything you want to do sis?" She asked, placing heavy emphasis on the 'sis' part. Rolling her eyes, Izumi shoved her. A second later though, the shapeshifter got a hug from the taller girls. "Hey, I'm just kidding. If you want to call me sis, go ahead."
"Not that it's my place to say anything but you two did always seem like sisters anyways." All Might said as they reached their split off, where the girls would split from their mentor. "Well, I'll see you both later. Don't do anything I wouldn't do!"
"Well, I won't get caught doing it at least." Midoriya called back, before turning back to Kendou. "But yeah, I do know a good café nearby, sis."
So, the two 'sisters' continued to laugh and tease one another as they set off for something to eat.
"HEY YOU HAG! WHERE THE FUCK ARE THOSE UGLY ASS PHOTOS OF DEKU FROM WHEN WE WERE KIDS?!" Bakugou demanded, yelling down the stairs as his acceptance letter sat before him.
"UGLY?! HE WAS A CUTER KID THAN YOU EVER WERE! WHY DO YOU WANT THEM!?" A more feminine voice barked up the stairs, make the blonde snarl. "YOU AREN'T GONNA TRY TO PULL SOME SHIT ARE YOU KATSUKI?! I SWEAR TO FUCK-"
"SHUT UP! I JUST WANT TO SEE THEM!" He lied, letting off an explosion, before he noticed the book he was looking for in the corner.
He opened it up to one of the early pages and grinned as he came across one of him and the little fuckmunch playing in the pool. Back when Izumi was still Izuku.
He couldn't make the bitch fail the entrance exam, she would have definitely passed with her freak villain powers. U.A. wasn't a place for someone like her though!
So he would just have to run her out, by exposing her however he had to.
In the dark depths of japan, hidden away from the ordinary citizens and the heroes, two figures sat conversing.
"What do you think, doctor?" A breathy, quiet voice asked.
"Servicable, I suppose." Another voice hummed, however there was an annoyed tone to his voice. "Still… I'd say I was the better choice than this… Nomu…"
"Patience Srijan…. Patience. You're time will come as well. In the meantime, I imagine Kurogiri could do with some help keeping Tomura in check."
"Yes, master."
