I want.
TO DIE.
I'm very tired.
But the chapter has been finished.
So enough of my shit and on with the trainwreck.
I don't own My Hero Academia or Ink Sans.
Two figures stared up at the entrance gates in a mixture of awe and excitement. This is what they spent most of their lives preparing for. This is what ten months of utter Hell with their demon spartan teacher for. They spent the ten months before the exam training intensely in both hand to hand combat both with and without their quirks. Still, they didn't regret it.
"Ready Kacchan?!" Izuku asked excitedly. Katsuki smirked and looked at his friend.
"Hell yes, nerd! Let's go!" With that, both boys ran into the building with excitement, ready to start the exam. Sitting down in their seats, they were quickly handed their tests. Forty minutes later, they finished their written exams and were now sitting and waiting patiently for the next portion. Well, Izuku was sitting patiently and doodling absentmindedly on the desk. Katsuki was grumbling to himself about how everyone else still taking the test was idiotic and slow.
"Come the fuck on!" he growled, a mini explosion popping in his palm. Izuku chuckled and patted Katsuki's hand.
"Now, now, Kacchan. No blowing up the others. That's not very nice." Katsuki groaned and tried not to explode his friend, but he came very close to it. Finally, after a few more minutes, the rest of the applicants filtered in and the lights went out, spotlights focusing on the front of the auditorium.
"Hey, kiddos! Are you READY?!" a blond man up on stage suddenly yelled but was met with nothing but silence from his audience. At the loud sound, Izuku looked up and smiled widely at the sight.
"Kaachan, look! It's Present Mic! I didn't know that he was teaching here!" the boy squealed and Katsuki slapped his hand over his friends mouth to quiet him before he could go off on a tangent. Once he got going, he wouldn't stop for a long time. He could feel Izuku still mumbling underneath his hand all throughout the explanation, but luckily, nothing was heard after that first outburst. Halfway through, the teen finally stopped and Katsuki pulled his hand away. The Pro Hero was still screaming up on the stage, but both boys understood what needed to be done.
"Alright kids! Let's head out! Make sure to look over your guide and follow the signs to your assign testing area!" Present Mic announced and immediately, both boys took a look down at the page in their hands. Izuku frowned and glanced back in between the two papers.
"We have different testing areas." Katsuki stated flatly, glaring down at the paper in his hands.
"They must want to make sure that the kids from different schools don't team up." Izuku observed. Katsuki nodded.
"Right! Well I'll just see you after it's over." Katsuki nodded, clapping the smaller boy's shoulder. "You better beat all those extras with you, Izu! After the hell training with that old geezer, I know for a fucking fact that you can kill their asses, so you'd better not let me down." The blonde grinned sharply and Izuku smiled hack happily.
"Yeah! We'll both do our best and become Heroes!" he cheered and ran off in the direction of his testing ground, but quickly turned around to yell encouragements at his friend.
"Have fun, Kaachan! I know you'll destroy them all!" he yelled cheerfully. Katsuki smiled wider and there was a fire in his eyes that blazed with determination. With that, Izuku continued running down to his testing area. As he got there and settled for looking around at the other participants, he took a deep breath and felt himself calm down and focus. Gin had taught the two boys many relaxation and focusing techniques, which benefitted Izuku very much. Due to his Quirk, his emotions and thoughts tended to get a bit scattered and at the beginning of his training with Gin, he had a very hard time concentrating. But after a few weeks of working together, Izuku learned to manage his thoughts. At least somewhat. It really depended on the ink he ingested and how he was feeling that day.
"And begin!" a voice called out from the speakers and Izuku looked around for the source of the noise, confused.
"Well, what are you waiting for? They don't tell you to start in a real battle! Go!" Present Mic yelled. Izuku felt his heart leap into his throat and took off at the command along with the rest of the applicants in his group. He felt his heart beat in his ears in excitement and he had to try and focus on the test, otherwise he'd puke ink again. Soon enough, he made it to the central area where he ran into a group of enemy robots. Izuku smiled and brought out an ink bottle from his pocket and flung it at the group. Chuckling, he activated his Quirk and what was once ink were now blades that sliced through the robots easily. Izuku smiled happily and ran ahead to find more robots, smiling happily as the test went on.
The only thing that he was concentrating on was the destruction of the robots and if he was honest, he was having a pretty fun time. He knew for a fact that Katsuki was probably having the time of his life over in his testing area. Throughout their training, they weren't allowed to let as loose at they wanted to without causing massive amounts of destruction so the fact they could use their Quirks however they wanted was liberating. Stopping to rest for a moment at the two-minute mark, Izuku glanced around for any other oncoming enemies, but it seemed that they were all occupied. Smiling softly, he looked around and simply reveled in the fact that he was actually there. Sadly, the moment was ruined when he felt violent tremors under his feet. But just as suddenly as the shaking started, it stopped, and he spotted a giant robot bursting out of the ground. Blinking in surprise, Izuku whistled and walked toward the giant robot in curiosity and ignoring the people running in the opposite direction, his eyes yellow and purple question marks.
'That's the biggest robot I've ever seen. Can I make something that big? Maybe. I should try it next time…' he thought to himself, his mind wandering until he was brought back to reality.
"Ngh…! H-help…!" he heard a voice call out weakly. Looking around and ignoring the oncoming giant robot, he spotted a girl trapped underneath a pile of rubble. Blinking in surprise, the quickly walked over to the girl and examined her.
"Are your legs just pinned or broken?" he asked, trying to assess how he would handle the situation.
"J-just pinned, but I'm to exhausted to use my quirk." The girl replied, trying her best to pull herself out, but not being able to. Nodding, Izuku brought out his paintbrush and splattered paint around the debris, making it form into iron beams that pushed the rocks away enough for Izuku to help pull the girl out.
"Wh-what about the Zero pointer! We'll never get away fast enough!" she panted and Izuku agreed. She was in no shape to run and the robot was only a step away. Nodding to himself, he gently set the girl on the rocks and gave her his best smiled.
"Ok. I'll stop it then!" he said cheerfully, and before she could say anything in reply, he had already taken off towards the giant robot, jumping up its body to about midlevel before launching himself away, smiling happily, his eyed red and green stars and diamonds. Painting a large diagonal slash over the robot, he chuckled softly before both his eyes flashed red. The ink suddenly solidified and a giant sharp blade was in place, effectively cutting the robot in half. The robot stopped in its tracks, sparks flying from the severed area and the top sliding slowly off behind it. Izuku smiled and landed on the robot before jumping off and landing safely on the ground where the brown-haired girl was staring at him, jaw dropped in shock.
"There we go. Now we should probably get you to see a doctor or something?' he said and gently picked the girl up, carrying her back to the entrance.
"B-b-but…! Th-The robot! A-and the blade thing! Wh-what?!" she stammered, confused. Izuku raised his eyebrow, Quirk still activated so all she could see were yellow and blue question marks.
"Uh, are you ok? You sure you didn't hit your head to hard? You're not making much sense." He asked innocently and walked briskly over to the entrance. The girl stared in uncomprehending silence at the level of nonchalance the boy showed.
Meanwhile, somewhere on the other side of the testing area, a blond-haired boy stood over a pile of fallen robot enemies, panting and smiling in a crazed manner. It was then that he suddenly felt a shiver run down his spine and was left with the distinct feeling that his best friend had just gone and confused someone beyond belief again. Groaning, he marched off of the pile as the buzzer went off. Stomping back to the entrance, he went back through the meeting hall and stood at the entrance gates, eyes scanning for a mop of green hair in among the dozens of kids walking out of the school.
"Kaachan! There you are!" he suddenly heard a familiar voice called out and he spotted his friend running through the crowd to him, his usual sunny smile plastered on his face. Pushing off from the wall he was leaning on, he watched as his friend got closer.
"That test was really exciting, wasn't it? so ow do you think you-gah!" Izuku greeted and was suddenly face first into the ground.
"Oww! What was that for?" he complained.
"You know exactly what that was for, you fuck." The blonde growled, glaring down at the other boy. Izuku looked up and smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head and standing up again.
"Yeah. I know." He said sheepishly.
"Stop confusing the dumb people! They need all the brains they have." He said, throwing an arm around the smaller boy's shoulder. "Now let's go home. I got a workout today and I know the old fart is gonna wanna know how we did." He said, pulling the boy along with him, chatting about what they did in their tests.
At their home, they recounted their stories and their families, Izuku's mother sobbed happily, hugging her son close as he blushed. Mitsuki and Masaru beamed proudly at their son. Mitsuki chuckled and hugged the boy tightly, much to his displeasure.
"Let me go, you old hag!" he yelled, hissing like a cat, but his mother paid him no mind, chatting happily with Inko.
"And of course we're proud of Izuku too! There's no doubt that you boys will get in!" she cheered and Inko smiled happily, nodding in agreement.

Izuku stared at the letter in his hands, his hands shaking slightly from nervousness. The pit of fear in his stomach was the only reason that he knew what this moment was real and not just an illusion.
"Are you going to open it, Izu?" His mother asked from the kitchen. Groaning, Izuku flailed and shrugged. Inko giggled and finished outing away the dishes before walking over and ruffling the boy's hair lovingly.
"Well, I'm sure you did! I don't have any doubts at all that you and Katsuki made it in! After all the training and studying you both did, they'd be crazy to reject you!" she said cheerfully, hugging him. Izuku smiled and hugged back.
"Thanks mom. That really helped." Izuku chuckled and hugged her back. Inko smiled and kissed the top of his head.
"Well, I'm going to the market to get groceries for dinner. I'll be back later, alright?" she said, letting him go and heading towards the door. Izuku smiled and nodded.
"Ok mom! I'll be here! be safe!" he called out and Inko giggled before nodding and leaving, closing the door behind her with a soft click. Sighing, he stared back at the innocent looking envelope in his hands and resigned himself to a possible lifetime of waiting and staring at the letter in front of him, or he would have, until the front door suddenly came flying open and a blonde blur came in, panting hard.
"Izu!" Katsuki yelled, panting. Izuku immediately looked up.
"Kaachan? What are you doing here? you didn't destroy the front door again, did you?" the smaller boy asked, s look of concern for the front door. Katsuki shook his head and stomped over, grabbing the boy's shoulders and shaking him.
"Did you get you UA letter yet?! Did you open it?!" he asked and Izuku blinked away the dizziness before shaking his head, smiling sheepishly.
"No. I was too scared to open mine." He admitted. "Did you open yours yet?" he asked and Katsuki let him go before smiling proudly.
"Of course I did! I got in and had the highest points out of all the examinees!" he boasted and Izuku chuckled before pulling away and sitting up.
"Yeah. I don't think you would have settled for anything else." Izuku teased. Katsuki rolled his eyes and eyed the envelope.
"Open it, ya nerd. They're not gonna reject you. We'll fight them if they do." Katsuki said, trying to be subtly encouraging. Izuku sighed and looked at the envelope warily, taking it into his hands and, closing his eyes, quickly ripping it open and taking out the small disk inside. His eyes snapped open as the disk started making sound and quickly placing it on the table, watching as a hologram appeared, revealing the number one Hero smiling proudly.
"Congratulations, Midoriya Izuku! Your impressive scores in both the written and practical exams have shown that you are truly meant for Yuuei High! You placed second in our scores and we would be honored to have you here!" the man announced and Izuku felt the tears well up in his eyes. He made it. He actually made it. And he scored so high too!
"You did it, nerd." Katsuki said rolled his eyes as Izuku cried and wiped his eyes furiously.

"Sensei! We got in" Izuku shouted, bursting into the dojo excitedly with Katsuki following close behind, smirking proudly.
"Like they could ever reject us." He snorted. The older man looked up and smiled proudly, standing up just as Izuku hugged him.
"There was never a doubt in my mind that you would." He said softly, rubbing the boy's curls before hugging the hoy with one arm and placing a and on Katsuki's shoulder. Katsuki's smirk softened into a smile at the pat.
"This is your starting point, boys. You are truly on your way to becoming great heroes! Just know that I am so proud to have taught you boys. It's been my pleasure and honor." He said in uncharacteristic softness. At that, Izuku burst into tears and hugged his teacher tighter, dragging Katsuki into the hug as well. Katsuki sighed and hugged them both, looking reluctant, but feeling just as overwhelmed and grateful to have this man as his teacher. Gin smiled in understanding and hugged the two boys fiercely.
These two boys would be the future.
