Look over the horizon it's another chapter already
You're welcome
Not much else to say but stay safe and here we go
My Hero Academia USA Sara Gaiden
Ken Smokes
Ken watched as their homeroom teacher paced in front of them
Ken was reminded of a trip he had taken to the Zoo with his family and the wolves walking in their enclosure one time a wolf had walked up to Ken making eye contact with him a moment before it had stalked off
They were the eyes of a predator proud and powerful
His homeroom teacher had the same look in his eyes
The teacher stepped forward "good afternoon students my name is Rex Sharp I'll be your homeroom teacher for the duration of your freshman year" he said walking in front of them eyeing them like he was a fighter in ring and they were his opponent
"Now then" he said with a smirk "let's get to work"
Ken watched Mr. Sharp point to a boy in in the middle of the crowd "Dray Young step forward"
The boy in question stepped out of the crowd Mr. Smith then pointed to his other side "August Grendel over here"
August stepped forward out of the crowd he had been quiet since his altercation in the lounge against Kyle but if looks could kill August would be considered a serial killer
Fortunately from what Ken has read in the past there was no quirk allowed one to instantly kill a man simply by looking at him
"Right these two will be our team captains for our first class exercise" Mr. Sharp explained "when I call your name step behind your captain"
Mr. Sharp eyed them again reminding Ken again of the wolf from the zoo
"Team Dray as follows Cole D'Meilo Eris Solei Deacon Marek Gael Montesinos Jack Ripper Rozu Tanaka Sara Yarkud Casper Lalka Hunter Armstrong" he listed
"Team Grendel Ken Smokes Jessica Prejean Mavis Weir Monet Hayes Hisato Kemuri Ember Cole Galileo Lockett Princessa Nestle Kiri Takei"
Of course not only would Ken have to be on the team with the captain who attempted assault on their upperclassman but also the girl who had sent judgmental looks at a number of students for their appearances
Ken stood in line between August standing taller then his captain even by two inches even with the horns growing from his temples and Jessica Prejean a girl he had yet to have a conversation with
She was in an overwhelming majority as he hadn't spoken to any of his classmates yet
Right now it would be wise to listen to Mr. Smith to explain the rule of the test
Being on an athletic field it must be some sort of physically demanding test
Kyle brought over Mr. Sharp a large plastic trash can earning a raised eyebrow from Ken
"The name of the game" Mr. Sharp began kicking the trash can over dozens of familiar red rubber balls rolled out onto the grass Mr. Sharp smiled "is dodgeball"
MJ Weir
Dodgeball
MJ hated dodgeball gym class in general actually
It was such a pain in the neck to not being allowed to her quirk in gym class
Emitters and Transformation quirks were better for stuff like that Mutant quirks like MJ's meant they either sat on the bench or just did exercises
"The rules are simple you get hit by a ball your out you catch a ball the one who threw it is out winner takes all first team to have all of their members knocked out loses" Mr. Sharp explained
Yeah that was pretty much how dodgeball worked
"Here's the difference between normal high school dodgeball and Hamilton high so long as you don't cause bodily harm quirks are allowed"
Whoa could Mr. Sharp read peoples minds
Wait all quirks were allowed
MJ grinned school hadn't even started yet and this was already the best school MJ has ever been to
"Oh and here's an incentive for you all to do your best" Mr. Sharp said getting everyones attention
"The winning team will get to go to the freshman mixer in the cafeteria the loser will stay here on the field with me to run laps"
MJ didn't have to look around at her fellow classmates to know which they would rather be doing
MJ wasn't the most competitive student but now she wanted to win
"You kids can have a minute to figure out your game plan" Mr. Sharp said
The two teams split up standing on their own sides while the dodgeballs were set up along the fifty yard line
"All right everyone listen up" the snobby blonde from earlier "if we have to win we should have a clearly established line of command"
"And let me guess you're at the top of the chain" a girl with tiger stripes along her arm and sharp looking claws at the ends of her fingers according to the name tag on her shirt her name was Jessica "we've already got a team captain and it's August"
"Well Mr. Sharp clearly overlooked the better candidate for team captain" the blonde girl said snobbishly "and that would be me Monet Hayes"
Jessica rolled her eyes "yeah it's dodgeball not an election" she said sarcastically before sounding serious "look I've seen a couple of the other team during the test we should take out the blue haired girl the archer with the afro and the dude covered in bandages"
Yeah MJ could agree with taking out Cole
She had seen him during the entrance exam the dude was a beast with his shadow quirk he had been ripping apart robots like a sumo wrestler with food at an all you can eat buffet
And he was the guy in third who knows what August or Dray could do
"Yes thank you for the suggestion dear but we shouldn't target someone simply based on your recommendation" Monet said turning towards the rest of the team "now does anyone have anything intelligent to contribute"
"Intelligent" Jessica hissed the claws she had extended "I'll show you intelligent when I use your head to make a field goal"
A black haired boy with silver eyes grabbed onto her before she could lunge at Monet "Jess calm down" he pleaded
"Sure after I punt her head" Jessica snarled at Monet "or just cut it off I haven't decided yet"
"Oh joy another violent brute" Monet scoffed "as if you could hold a candle to me"
MJ thought she was still sounding arrogant but she slipped into some kind of martial arts stance and were her eyes starting to glow
Greeaaaattt first day of school and there was already a cat fight it was starting to feel like she was in middle school
Before the first punch could be thrown two other students got in between Monet and Jess
Their name tags read Ember and Hisato
Not that MJ needed to read Hisatos name tag he introduced himself to everyone when he ran up late
"Come on ladies let's save it for the other team" Hisato pleaded to Monet and Jess
"Hisato's right let's sheathe the claws and turn off our glowing eyes and maybe we can think of an actual strategy"
"I've got a plan already" August growled out for a second his voice sounded demonic getting a squeak of fear from the smallest member of their team Kiri
"Hit the other team and don't get in my way or I'll pulverize you after the game's over"
MJ and a few others watched August march towards the fifty yard line
She didn't know what was more terrifying being that guy's opponent
Or being on his team
Cole D'Meilo
The sun was so bright today why did it have to be so bright
Cole felt weak and sluggish the longer he had to endure being under the sun the weaker his quirk would be
Cole had to win so his team could go back inside
"So" their captain Dray said sounding nervous talking to so many people
Unbelievable the kid who scored top on the entrance exam was afraid of public speaking
Cole wished that he could have such a mundane fear instead of the nightmares he had to deal with
"Does anyone have a plan" Dray asked
"it's not much of a plan but I can redirect any balls that are thrown at us" said girl stepped forward her nametag read Rozu
"Great that sounds like the start of a plan" Dray clapped his hands "ok let's go out there and win"
Agreed
The sooner Cole got out of the sun the better
"All right" Mr. Sharp yelled getting everyones attention "it's time to play"
The two teams lined up "on the count of three"
Cole reached deep inside getting ready to use his quirk feeling the darkness deep inside of him ready to pull it out when Mr. Sharp gave the word
"Go" Mr. Sharp called out
Both teams rushed for the red rubber balls each side grabbing ammunition Cole didn't run instead he stepped forward forward pulling the darkness out throwing out towards the other end of the field
"Black Hole" Cole called out quietly a wave of darkness flew out over the other end of the field
"Hey what the heck" a boy on the other team said Cole was pretty sure his name was Hisato or maybe Hisao
It was something Japanese Cole couldn't remember
Cole kept pouring the darkness out keeping people tracked
Cole D'Meilo
Quirk Dark Void
Cole's body body can produce control and turn into darkness
Cole held back a yawn the sun was really starting to get to him "you girls had better get moving"
Sara and Rozu rushed forward throwing dodgeballs taking out two members of the other team
August snarled "you think a little quicksand can stop me" August grew larger and his horns looking like a monster August snarled grabbing a handful of dodgeballs with his now massive hands throwing them straight at Cole
"I got this" Sara said rushing forward she grabbed Cole by his arms taking him out of the line of fire
Sara placed him down "you good"
Cole nodded slowly
Rozu standing in his original spot with her arms held out the dodgeballs stopped in mid air "thanks for the ammunition August" Rozu said a bead of sweat pouring down the side of her head
Rozu Tanaka
Quirk Telekinetic Agility
Rozu is a low level telekinetic that can move small objects or increase her agility
Rozu pushed with her hands the dodgeballs flying back where they came from back to the hulking brute that was August
August snarled at Rozu before marching off
Cole was honestly wondering why someone who had such obvious anger management issues would sign up to be in the hero course or how he even got in
"Can you do that black hole trick again" Sara asked him dodging a ball Cole knelt down picking up a ball tossing it to another member of their team a short blonde boy whose skin was shining in the light
Cole shook his head "no" Cole he said without explaining
A dodgeball flew at Cole
Catching it Cole was going to throw it back but he couldn't let go of the ball it was stick to his bandages
And
Cole held the ball up taking a sniff
Is this caramel
Another ball hit Cole in the stomach taking him out of the game
Cole walked off of the field over to Mr. Sharp "sir is it ok if I head inside until the exercise is over" the staff were informed of his photophobia and knew he couldn't spend too much time outside
Even without the weakness from his quirk Cole was not a fan of being outside but the school and his foster parents had worked out a deal that so long as he participated during exercises he wouldn't have to be outside for long periods of time
Another stipulation was talking with a guidance counselor but there were worst conditions they could have set
Mr. Sharp nodded "go ahead Cole but don't go too far"
Cole nodded thankfully heading inside
Hopefully his team won
He'd probably would have to run laps inside but that didn't mean he wanted to
Leo Lockett
The quirks in their class were certainly unique
On Leo's team there was a boy who transformed into a demon a girl who had shot glowing knives at balls thrown at her until she had been knocked out an orc a cat a fire quirk a smoke screen and Jess
Leo made a wall in front of himself to block some dodgeballs
Leo and his wall were being backed up down field towards a girl with cat like features and orange eyes her name tag read MJ "how do you think we're doing" she asked
Leo didn't know how to answer that on one hand they still had four members on their team with him Jess MJ and Monet
Wait scratch that Monet just got out
So now they were down to three the same number as the other team
On the other hand the quirks the other team had were impressive the purple haired Hunter no one had been able to touch Rozu deflected everything thrown at her with telekinesis and then there was Dray who would appear and disappear taking shots at Leo's team from the sides
And Leo was starting to feel the drain on his reserves
Rozu was the biggest problem they needed to get her from an angle where they wouldn't be able to deflect the shot back at them
"I think we can still win" Leo said coming up with the idea
Leo dropped his wall catching a ball get Dray out
'That's one down two to go' Leo thought looking to Jess "Jess meteor shower"
Jess ducked under a shot from Hunter grinning "I'm in" standing up she ran forward sliding across the field grabbing a ball she tossed her dodgeball in the air Leo did the same letting his eyes glow pale yellow hands shot out of his back grabbing the dodgeballs catching them Leo threw them back in a downward arc towards Rozu's back
Rozu turned to stop the balls holding them in mid air
"MJ now"
"Oh I get it" MJ said with a catlike grin throwing a ball at Rozu's back knocking her out
The only player left on the other team was Hunter who no one had been able to hit
And Leo still had no idea what his quirk was MJ Jess and Leo grabbed a ball going at Hunter from all sides "give it up dude you're out numbered three to one"
Hunter looked between the three of them "yeah you're right" Hunter said before he disappeared
Wait why did he disappear
Was it some kind of invisibility quirk
Hunter looked around paranoid
Where did he go
"Over here dudes" Hunter said Leo and the others on Team August turned to see Hunter sitting on a bench wiping the sweat off his forehead the rest of his team looked at him shocked they had no idea how he'd gotten there
"Ta da" Hunter said
Wait how did he what was he
"Oh great an illusion quirk" MJ surmised sarcastically
Mr. Sharp clapped his hands "congratulations you've all showed excellent uses of your quirks and Team August ended up being the winner"
Which meant that Leo and the rest of Team August weren't going to be running laps
"Oh and about the laps" Mr. Sharp smiled "I made that up to motivate you all to work harder"
Well thats a relief Leo supposed
At least no one was going to be running laps
"Enjoy the party" Mr. Sharp said with a smile
Rozu Tanaka
The party she supposed was mildly fun
The music didn't give her a headache the food was edible and August Grendel wasn't charging her like a wild bull for getting him out during the dodgeball game
All in all it was a good day
Though if she or anyone else on team Dray would have had to run laps because of Hunter and his illusion quirk she would have used him as a target for her archery practice
But right now there was something Rozu had to do that she had been meaning to do all day
Rozu walked over to Sara who was having a coke by the entrance when Rozu was in her personal space Sara looked up
"Let me guess the music giving you a headache too " Sara asked
Rozu shook her head "actually I wanted to tell you thank you for the entrance exam"
Sara shrugged "no big deal" taking a sip of her coke "you would have done the same right"
Rozu nodded "right"
Rozu stood next to Sara the two continuing to talk through the party
It was much better then eating or making awkward small talk with her other classmates
And that's the chapter I hope you enjoyed the quirk test
Not much else to say other then
Stay Safe
And
