10 months have passed since Izuku met All Might and he's just as determined now as he was that night. He's grown in the last 10 months and now stands at about 180cm tall and has gained quite a lot of muscle from cleaning Dagoba Beach and doing some self-defence training. He's by no means a martial arts master but can at least handle himself in a fight.

Izuku is currently staring up at the main campus building of U.A. mumbling about how much bigger it looks in person and doesn't notice the blond boy holding out his foot ready to trip him until he's already falling. He manages to catch himself in a push-up position but feels everyone's eyes on him when Bakugo starts to shout, "DEKU! You quirkless loser, I thought I told you not to bother applying to U.A." Bakugo then starts to walk away towards the exam leaving Izuku on the floor, "Not that it matters anyway, there's no way they would let in someone as useless as you."

As Izuku picked himself off the floor he heard a soft voice behind him say, "Hey, are you alright?" he turned to see a girl with large brown eyes and a brown bob cut looking up at him as she was about eye level with his chin.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Thank you. Katsuki's always like that." Izuku states, " I'm Izuku Midoriya by the way."

"Ochako Uraraka, you're here for the exam too right? We should get going, we don't want to be late. It was nice to meet you." Uraraka then runs off with a slightly darker blush than normal. Izuku quickly follows after her, also not wanting to be late.

When he got into the auditorium for the explanation of the physical exam he had to ignore some of the sniggering and whispering about the quirkless boy who fell outside. He then found his seat next to Bakugo who just stared daggers at him and huffed in annoyance.

Present Mic then began explaining about the exam and the One, Two and Three point robots that gain you the corresponding amount of points until he was interrupted by a muscular teen with dark blue hair and as stiff posture who questioned the lack of information about the fourth kind of villain before turning to face directly at Izuku and saying, "And you there with the messy hair, stop mumbling if you're not going to take the exam seriously please leave."

Izuku then spoke up stating "I'm just trying to analyse the test and mumbling helps me concentrate. Also, you just interrupted the whole exam explanation to ask about something that Present Mic was about to talk about so if anyone is distracting the other examines it's you."

Both students then sat back down allowing Present Mic to continue with his presentation explaining that the fourth robot is worth Zero points and should just be avoided.

Izuku was now stood outside Test side B in a crowd of students some of which were still questioning whether he had a quirk or was indeed quirkless and if so if he was suicidal or an idiot. He chose to ignore these people in favour of walking up to Uraraka who he had just spotted. He flashed her a bright smile before saying, "Good luck with the exam."

She was about to reply when the huge concrete doors to the examination site began to open and Izuku bolted away from her. All the other examines were frozen in shock until Present Mic yelled, "What are you waiting for, RUN! There's no countdown in a real battle." This spurred everyone into action as they raced to catch up with Izuku who was now facing down against a Two pointer robot which was scorpion-esque in design. He started by leaping over its claws when it lunged for an attack and landed on its back and began ripping out wires from the back of its head and neck causing it to collapse with no power.

He continued into the mock city and was immediately targeted by a Three pointer, Izuku began running away from it and led it to a large gathering of other robots. When the Three pointer fired its missiles Izuku jumped to the side causing the missiles to fly into the other gathered robots blowing them up leaving piles of scrap metal. Izuku then grabbed a large piece of scrap metal triangular in shape and leapt onto the original Three pointer stabbing the metal through its hull causing it to shut down. Izuku then made his way to the main road of the faux city mentally adding up his points to a total of nineteen.

He then overheard others calling out their totals, Uraraka had 28 from touching the robots and causing them to fall and explode on contact, the Blue haired boy from earlier had 42 from using high-speed kicks from his engine quirk. Izuku panicked at this and began destroying robots as quick as he could using scrap metal as makeshift weapons. Once he had destroyed a few more robots he stood upon the remains of a Three pointer panting adding up his total again to have 31 points when he felt the ground rumble and vibrate. When he got back to the main street he saw a towering monster of metal with eight glowing red eyes, other examines began running past him away from the robot and Izuku was about to follow until his eyes locked onto a girl stuck under rubble in front of the Zero pointer.

Before he even had a chance to think he was already bolting his way down the street towards the robot making the other examines think that he's crazy. When he got to the girl he noticed it was Uraraka, he squatted down and began lifting the slab of concrete off of her leg. Once she had crawled out Izuku helped her up then spotted the giant hand of the Zero pointer coming down at them. In a split second decision, Izuku threw Uraraka as far as he could getting her out of the reach of the robot before putting up his arm to attempt to block his head from the hit.

The other potential heroes looked on in horror as the Zero pointer swatted Izuku away sending him flying through a wall as Present Mic announced the end of the exam. 30 seconds went by without anyone even daring to breath when they spotted movement from the hole caused by Izuku's body.

Emerging from said hole was Izuku, left arm visibly broken, right clutching his likely cracked ribs and blood staining his dark green hair from where he must of hit the wall. He slowly limped over to Uraraka and slumped down onto the floor next to her asking, "Hey, you alright? Sorry, I through you so hard but I didn't want you to get hit by that." He lightly gestures over to the now inactive Zero Pointer.

Meanwhile, all the hero hopefuls are questioning whether Izuku is quirkless or not, no one saw him use a quirk, most saying they saw him using parts of the robots to destroy others, but none of them could believe that a quirkless person could survive a hit like that and still walk. Recovery Girl slipped past the crowd just in time to hear Izuku's first instinct was to ask about the girl he saved rather than worry about his own injuries.

Both Izuku and Uraraka are healed, Izuku for his long list of injuries and Uraraka for her broken ankle from the concrete slab, and were dismissed along with the other examines.
