Disclaimer: I don't own Bnha or Jsh.
Name: Yamamoto Isamu
Quirk: Earthbender, he can control a certain amount of rocks at a limited distance of 200 m from himself. He call that 'his area' where he can sense anything on the ground.
Downside: If the user overuses his powers he suffers from migraine and gets nauseous.
"Y-Yugi-san," the trembling voice of Fuuji resonated from the phone. It's been a week since the exam. And Amane has just received the acceptance letter from the school. He was earnestly joyful that words cannot describe how he felt. Though, just when he was savoring the serendipity of the joy-filling information, Fuuji called him.
"I didn't," his voice shook more. "I didn't make it into the hero course." He sobbed. "I wasn't able to live up to your expectations. I am sorry. I am so sorry." He was so heartbroken.
"Fuuji-kun," Amane said softly. "Hey, it's alright. Don't give up yet."
"What are you saying?" He screamed angrily. "How can you say that? My dreams are shattered. I did not make it. I was put into the general education course."
"So what?" Amane cut him off harshly. His voice was dangerously low and his eyes darkened. "That's not the end of it yet. You can make it in if you work harder. Students can be moved from the general course to the hero's if they show their promise." He sat cross-legged on his bed and side-gazed at his roommate, Yako who was watching him curiously.
"R-really?" He cooled off his head and seemed to consider what he has said.
"Of course, why would I lie to you?"
"E-even so, I-I don't think I can make it." He fumbled shyly. What a fast mood swing!
"Let's be honest; someone like you who've only trained and done his best for about 10 month couldn't possibly compete with those who've put much longer and harder work. Don't be so self-centered and stop thinking of yourself as a protagonist of some shounen anime. This is real life kid. You don't always get what you want. I've already said it; it's not your Quirk or the lack of it that makes you. You were blindly cutting off the criticisms of your peers without actually considering their words and what you should do."
"I-I…"
"Stop being naïve. Embrace your lost and work harder." Amane's voice mellowed a little. "You won't give up now, right?"
"Y-yes," he sobbed. "I won't give up. I will try harder next time. And this time, I will be worthy to stand by your side forever."
"D-don't say that. That's somewhat disturbing!"
"Class 1-A! 1-A! 1-A!" Yugi wandered the halls searching for his classroom. The boarding school of U.A. has given them a map when their acceptance letter was sent to them. It makes it easier especially when the facility was so gigantic that even with the guide he's still having some difficulties. Yako was floating beside him again. Since the entrance exam, she's been going outside more and more.
After a couple of minutes, he found his classroom. The words '1-A' were written in bold on the big door. "Here we go!" He took a deep breath and took his first step to his future.
"Hello," he chirped as soon as he entered the room. Some ignored him completely, others waved back and few greeted him. He glanced around; studying attentively his classmates.
A few seats were left yet luckily his favorite one was not taken. He sat at the back in the last row which was near the window. He had great love of astronomy since his childhood, that's why he likes gazing at the sky especially on boring periods that he most likely is going to be put through. Despite it being U.A's hero course normal classes are still mandatory.
The door opened again and a familiar indigo-hair popped up. The girl entered the room happily and politely greeted her classmates. When she saw him, she waved at him passionately and marched rapidly to him.
"H-hi," she began excitedly. "I don't know if you remember me, but I am the one you saved at the entrance exam. Thank you very much for what you've done."
"Yeah, of course I do recognize you. And, like I said you don't have to thank me." A playful smirk creased his lips. "I am Yugi Amane by the way. Nice to meet you."
"Akane Aoi," She grinned happily.
"Don't know why I have to say this every year; if you're here to make friends then go home. You're not kids anymore." A strange caterpillar crawled through the door. All conversation ceased and they all looked blankly at the creature. It stood up (somehow) and the face of a tired man appeared. The person stepped out of his sleeping bag. "I'm Aizawa Shouta, aka Eraserhead, your homeroom teacher."
"That sleep deprived hero at the entrance exam is our homeroom teacher?"
"If you have a problem with that you're free to leave anytime. Most importantly, put these PE uniform on and go out onto the field."
"A quirk assessment test?"
"Yeah, that's exactly what I said. what do I get this reaction every year? And, before you ask, no I don't care about missing the entrance ceremony or the orientation. If you're going to become heroes, you don't have time for leisure activities. And yes, as your teacher, I can do whatever I want. The U.A system doesn't follow the beaten path. Oh and, depending on your performance, I might or might not expel you." The students took a long minute to grasp what he said. "And, here we go again."
"What?"
"Can you even do that?"
"Expulsion? On our first day?"
"That's crazy!"
"Are you kidding me?"
"That can't be true."
"That's so not fair."
"Life is not fair, kiddos. My class, my rules. If you have a problem with that, you are free to leave." He smirked welcome to U.A's hero course."
"Anyway, it's simple. You've been doing it since Junior high. Those physical fitness test where you prohibited to use your Quirks. This time you have to." Hands in pockets, he looked at every student before him. Despite his worn-out appearance, he was intimidating. "Hmm, Yamamoto, you placed first in the practical exam, right?" The orange-haired boy stepped forward. Amane frowned.
"First know your maximum, and then overcome it. Go Beyond Plus Ultra! That's one the most essential way to form the foundation of a hero." Aizawa-sensei tossed him a ball. "First of all soft ball, throw the ball as far as you can with your quirk without leaving the circle."
The boy, Yamamoto Isamu, nodded lazily. He manipulated some rocks that circled the ball. Then, he used his power to send it flying. When it was about to exit 'his area' he gave it a last boost and it soared in the sky.
The Erasure hero: Eraser-head showed them a device that served as a way to measure the distance. '583,43 m,' it read. "Demonstration is over. Let's begin the test."
Test 1: 50-meter sprint
"The aim of this test is to determine acceleration and speed. You will go by pairs. When I call your name you may step forward. For more detailed records of the results, we won't use a stop watch but a robot that would do the job."
3,58 Yamamoto Isamu;("It's a lazy but creative use of his Quirk. He rides a floating that he controls. His control over his Quirk is remarkable as it's difficult to attain that level at his age. His physical condition is lacking, though. He has potential.")
4,31 Yugi Amane; ("His Quirk is Regeneration. It's a powerful ability yet it is of no use in this test. The odd thing is his speed. He easily placed second on his test. He isn't particularly muscular but he's lean and athletic.")
4,44 Ryoto Asahi; ("He used fire to propel himself. Between all his classmates, he seems the most physically capable one. What's weird is that, despite his quirk, Yugi was able to arrive before him.")
5,49 Asui Satsuki; ("The younger sister of Froppy. She can partially or totally transform into a frog.")
The others were average or not as notable as these.
Test 2: Grip Strength
480 Kg Yamamoto Isamu;
90 Kg Akane Aoi ("I guess that her Quirk strengthened her arms' power.")
87 kg Ryoto Asahi;
77 Kg Yugi Amane;("He's quite strong despite his appearance, that's sure.")
63 kg Aizawa Eri; ("I am so proud of her. Her work is paying off.")
Test 3: Standing long jump
30 inches Yamamoto Isamu ("I wanted to see his physical strength. It was catastrophic. I have so much work to do.")
? Yugi Amane ("I don't know how he was doing it, but he was floating until I used my Quirk on him and he fell face first into the ground. Now I'm convinced that his Quirk isn't just Regeneration. He isn't trying to hide other aspects of his ability. I will have a talk with him later –just more work for me.")
87 inches Mirai Maki ("A relative of the late Mirai Sasaki and a recommendation student. The short girl has, surprisingly, a great jumping ability.")
Test 4: Repeated Side Steps
Test 5: Ball Throw
"Yugi Amane, it's your turn." He stepped forward. Eraser Head tossed him the ball and he stood in the circle. The cryptic boy looked at his side as if he was listening to someone. His eyes went wide and he sweat dropped. He nodded his head slightly and prepared to throw the ball. That was weird! I don't know what he's going to do. I will try stopping him with my Quirk. Aizawa's eyes glowed deep red while he glared at the short boy. The latter lazily threw it and in a span of a second it disappeared. What the hell? Did it teleport or something? Aizawa shakily glanced at the device. It read '1.3 Km'. What just happened? If the Pro Hero man was bemused earlier, now he is outright bewildered.
Test 6: Long Distance Run
Test 7: Sit-ups
Test 8: The Seated Toe-touch ("nothing more to note. The performance is the same.")
"Ranking in this test doesn't matter to me. What I am searching for is your potential or the lack of it for some cases. This year's student is the most promising one in nearly one decade." I can smell the trouble that would come with it like that cursed year. Let's hope it's not something as extreme. "So, congratulation for those who are not expelled… yet. If I deem you unworthy to continue on."
More than half of the class was expelled and they all were shocked. They did not believe him at first but they were all proven wrong. the ones that were not expelled were: Yugi Amane (Regeneration)– Akane Aoi (Deathclaws)– Yamamoto Isamu (Earthbender)– Ryoto Asahi (Dragon-soul) – Mirai Maki (recommendation student, Timeline)– Saiki Kokoro (recommendation student, Telepathy)– Asui Satsuki (Frog)– Aizawa Eri (Rewind).
The rest of the day was normal and boring which they were thankful for –no need for another stressful session.
The next day, they were having Hero Basic Training. The door opened harshly and the towering form of a flaming person appeared. He walked proudly to the front of the classroom. His tone was harsh when he talked and the scowl wasn't leaving his face. "My name is Todoroki Enji, aka Endevour, as you can see I am your Heroics teacher."
Author Note: Yamamoto Isamu, Saiki Kokoro and Ryoto Asahi are OCs. There are few Jsh character. I know that OC are usually not loved very much. And if I use many of them, it would become difficult to remember. That's why I will not use that many and I will use simpler names to remember.
Hope you liked the chapter.
