The Battle Simulation and USJ Incident will be in the next chapter.
Mornings are supposed be peaceful with a mourning routine that comes natural after waking up and doing it so many times. Hence, why the morning routine of Midoriya Izuku had changed drastically with the two new arrivals in his life. Which leaders him to his new morning routine right now.
Sunlight beams down through the closed curtains of a certain green haired boys bedroom. Squinting his eyes with groan he covered his eyes with his arm before yawning. As he removed his arm he noticed a weight on his chest and felt another extra weight.
'Heavy.'
Removing his arm from his eyes he looked down, noticing the extra weight on him was none other than his new adoptive sibling, Midoriya Eri. She really did look peaceful, its a shame he had to wake her up though, along with the other sleepy head. His brother, Midoriya Ren. Coming up with a birth certificate for Rin wasn't hard because of Hatsume, which he would like to point again should be just a simple technician, only she's not. The adoption papers for Eri though were legit, so there's that.
Placing a hand on her head he decided now was the time to get up, besides he has an early meeting today, "Eri, its time to get up." His voice sounded horse, but that's because he just woke up. The little girl merely snuggled further in his chest as a response. He would find this cute, if he really didn't need to get up right now. Sitting up on the bed he managed to pry Eri's hands off of him and place her on Ren's chest instead. Since she spends all her time with the two of them anyway she's come to sleep on both of them. When she first came here the only person she clung to was him, but after spending more time with her new family she grew more comfortable around them. She would follow the two brothers around like a little duckling, which he might add was very adorable.
The people who treated her like some kind of object rather than a person, the Shie Hassaikai were mentioned on the news, just weren't arrested. Chances are they found a new hideout since their old one was probably no more since All Might was with the police when they found their first secret hideout. He didn't know if they were looking for Eri or not, but on the off chance All Might or the police somehow find out about her and start looking then we will have to tell them everything.
Let's just hope they can handle the truth.
Having finished brushing his teeth, he went to the kitchen and decided to make his own breakfast since he was going to school early. Why was he going early? Its because that he was forced to become the new Disciplinary Committee President. After Yui-senpai graduated he was immediately inaugurated into the position, unfortunately. The only good thing about being named the new Disciplinary Committee President is that Shinsō was stuck being his Vice President. As there are upsides to a position, there are also downsides, one of them is going to early meetings and having to reign in undisciplined students. One of them being Bakugo Katsuki. When the explosive blonde found out he became the new Disciplinary Committee President he decided to act out even worse than before. Yui-senpai, that sneaky girl. The real reason she gave him the position after she graduated was so that she wouldn't have to deal with Bakugo anymore.
Very sneaky.
Leaving a note on the kitchen table he left the apartment building and headed to school. It was his third and final year of Middle School before he will soon take the High School Entrance Exams along with Shinsō. Speaking of which...
"Morning." Izuku greeted the boy that met him half way on the way to school.
Shinsō gave him a lazy smile, "Morning, Izuku."
Izuku inspected the boy's face, "You've got more dark circles. Are you getting enough sleep?"
Shinsō let out a yawn, "Yeah...my insomnia's gonna kill me one of these days."
"Don't joke about something so serious." Izuku sighed.
"Dreading the meeting?" Shinsō guessed.
"How could you tell?" Izuku said dryly.
"Just a hunch," the brainwash Quirk user shrugged, "Why do we have an early meeting anyway?"
"Because we'll be graduating soon and need to address the students who will be leaving right along with us," Izuku stated, "That also means we need to organize papers for those who will be going to certain schools."
"Like how we're going to U.A?" Shinsō said.
"That's right."
The Discipline Committee did more than just keep delinquents in line. They were also responsible for letting the principal know who would be going to what school, and so fourth. Then there was the inauguration of the new Discipline Committee President. Izuku was certainly going to be busy before leaving.
"Already have someone in mind for the position?" Shinsō asked.
"Yep."
"Good."
"What about you?"
Shinsō smirked, "I have someone in mind. By the way, congrats on being in a relationship with Ochako, even though it was hilarious to watch."
Izuku grumbled but didn't say he was wrong, because he wasn't. See, Izuku had decided to tell Ochako everything he'd found out about his father, but neglected to tell her about Ren, Eri, and defeating Black Arachnid's leader Gou.
Needless to say she wasn't happy.
Ochako stood as still as a statue as she stared at Ren. The news of Izuku's father and what he did made her so angry that she was thinking about sending the man straight into the moon with her Quirk. But right now she was angry at Izuku because he hid two things from her. One, was the clone of his brother Ren, and little Eri-chan, but what really made her angry...
She put on her sweet smile.
The same sweet smile that sent shivers down Izuku's spine because it was a sign, telling him that he had screwed up. Big time.
"Izuku-kun~?"
"Y-Yes...?"
"Why are you just now telling me about Ren and Eri-chan?"
Said individuals were sitting in the same room, aka Izuku's bedroom, blinking a few times as they were currently being talked about by Ochako. Shinsō meanwhile was smirking in the background and Izuku was very tempted to punch him in the face.
"Izuku-kun~?" Ochako said his name again.
"Yeah, see...I meant to tell you about everything that happened sooner, but..." he trailed off.
"But?" She gestured for him to go on.
Izuku had never before felt this kind of fear, not even when he went up against the leader of Black Arachnid. This was a whole different level of fear.
"Sorry, I forgot." He confessed.
Shinsō's annoying snort of laughter only wanted to make him punch the boy even harder in the face. This is not funny. Nothing about the current situation right now is funny. There will be payback for this.
A dark aura surrounded the always cheerful Ochako and Izuku felt like a small animal about to be devoured by a predator. He could face both the members of Black Arachnid and their leader, break into a highly secured Yazuka base and rescue a little girl, but he was absolutely weak against Ochako's anger.
"Izuku-kun...you..." Before he knew it, the girl was hitting him with her balled fists, "Baka, baka, baka, baka!" She chanted over and over again as she kept hitting him.
"Ow, ow, ow—Ochako-chan, that hurts—Ow!" Izuku protested to her hitting weakly.
"I don't care! You kept secrets from me, that's not what friends do!" Ochako told him.
"What if I want us to be more than just friends?!" Izuku suddenly said.
The hitting abruptly stopped as Ochako's cheeks were tinted pink, a sign of embarrassment.
"Eh...?"
Izuku realized what he just said and mentally kicked himself, while promising to hit Shinsō even harder for laughing. Ren had that knowing look on his face, like he's not even surprised, and sweet, sweet little Eri blinked her innocent and oblivious eyes at them could truly do no wrong.
"I-Izuku-kun...just now...what did you mean by..." Ochako felt like her brain was about to short circuit but a part of her needed to know what he meant. No, she needed to know!
Izuku looked away from her with a small blush before sighing and turned to her with determination in his eyes, "Ochako-chan...I'm sorry, for not telling you about Black Arachnid, Ren, Eri...and Hisashi. The real reason I didn't tell you was because I didn't want to get you involved because I..." he took a deep breath, "Ochako-chan, I want us to be more than just best friends."
Ochako's whole face was as red as a tomato with both hands on each side of her face, "You...You...us...we..." she closed her eyes tightly before hiding her face with her hands, but she soon removed them and looked at Izuku. Her face was still red, but she was smiling this time, "Me too...I...I want to be...more than just a best friend..."
Izuku felt like his heart was going to burst out of his chest. Not only did Ochako accept everything he told her, but she felt the same as him. Standing up, he grabbed both of her hands with an awkward smile, "Ochako-chan...will you...will you...be my partner?"
Shinsō sweat-dropped, 'Is he asking her to be his girlfriend or wife?'
Ochako didn't seem to mind as she gave him a gentle smile, "I'd like that very much, Izuku-kun."
Izuku had a bright grin on his face when she agreed to be his partner and Shinsō merely gave the new couple an exasperated smile. Took them long enough.
Eri was confused though and decided to ask Ren what was going on, "Why did Izuku ask Ochako-san to be his partner?"
Ren answered, "It is because the two of them share the same emotions towards each other and will soon use that emotion to become bonded with one another, Ren explains to his clueless sibling."
Shinsō choked on his spit.
Ren was so lucky Eri was too damn young to understand what he meant by that.
Dammit Ren!
"Once again, congratulations on your union." Shinsō teased.
"Shut up, you ass," Izuku playfully hit his arm, "We're a couple, not hitched."
"Yet." Shinsō smirked.
"I will send you flying." Izuku threatened.
Shinsō held his hands up in mock surrender.
This was how Izuku's morning routine went since the arrival of Ren and Eri, but he wouldn't change it for anything in the world. He hoped to keep having this routine when they got accepted into U.A. together.
All of them.
"So that takes care of the students who are applying to schools that fit their criteria," Izuku took off his glasses as he finished the report on students applying to high schools that suit their future careers, "What's next on the agenda?"
"Sir, next on the agenda is who will be giving the speech for the 3rd Years that will be graduating this year." A member of the committee spoke.
Izuku leaned back in his chair, "We'll take a vote on that. Next."
A member stood up, "Here's the weekly report on the trouble makers, as you expected its mostly Bakugo and his group."
All of the other members sighed as Bakugo's arrogant behavior hadn't changed in the slightest. They're also not pleased to know that he also plans on going to U.A. along with Izuku and Shinsō. They just couldn't get away from him, could they?
"Couldn't Shinsō-san just use his Quirk on Bakugo to make him not want to go to U.A?" Someone in the room voiced.
Speaking of which, everyone in the Committee fully accepted Shinsō's Quirk and would often, if not always tell him just how much they appreciate having him here with them. Mostly because he can use his Quirk on Bakugo to make him be quiet for at least five freaking minutes! Shinsō merely rolled his eyes in amusement.
"Tempting, but I'd rather not waste my Quirk on something like that," Shinsō finally spoke, "Besides, my Quirk doesn't quite work that way."
"Ah, that's right. Sorry, I forgot." The same person apologized.
"Its cool."
Izuku rubbed his temples, "This is his last year, just keep thinking that soon you'll never have to see him again...except for the ruinion."
They all blanched.
'We're not exactly looking forward to that either.' They all shuddered at the thought of a five year into the future Bakugo.
Honestly terrifying.
"And on that note," Izuku got their attention, "Meeting is adjourned."
Izuku and Shinsō wasted no time leaving the room and heading off to their classroom. They told the teacher they were going to be a little late because of the meeting, but he didn't seem to mind and understood.
Shinsō groaned, "I don't wanna go to class..."
Izuku stopped walking making Shinsō give him a confused look, "Izuku?"
"We're skipping." he declared.
Shinsō just stared at him before snorting, "Yes, sir."
Elsewhere a certain Number #1 Hero was busy chasing down a E-Class villain, known as the Sludge Villain. The crime committed wasn't that serious, just petty robbery. Just hearing that reminded him of what happened with that boy years ago when he killed two members of Black Arachnid after he went berserk when he saw his mother get shot. He wondered how that boy was doing, and if he'd managed to control his Quirk?
Spotting the villain he wasted no time in trying to confront the E-Class felon, only for him to bolt once again much to his frustration. He really didn't have time to be playing around. He was on a time limit after all.
His Quirk had already decided that for him when he fought that man.
No—when he fought that monster.
Erasing his mind of someone, who he hoped was dead, he chased after the Sludge Villain and the chase started up once again.
Izuku's frown was making Shinsō wonder if the green haired boy was doing it on purpose or not. He knew the reason for the frown though. See, earlier when they decided to skip class, Bakugo found them on the roof and demanded they stay far away from U.A.
Shinsō just looked at him like he was stupid, which is probably was despite him being pretty smart. All three of them were going to a school that was hard to get into and yet instead of encouraging they all do their best to get in, he was telling them to stay away. Un-freaking-believable. This shouldn't be a surprise to him and its not, but still—he and Izuku have every right to apply to U.A, not just Bakugo.
The green haired boy in question had that look on his face, the same look he gave when they rescued Eri and he was contemplating about destroying the hideout with everyone in it. Not wanting to see Izuku do something he might regret, he used his Quirk on Bakugo and told him to go back to class and not bother them again. Bakugo did what he asked and left.
Now here they are, at the end of the day and they were both going home. Izuku was still frowning, and had been all day. With a sigh, he poked the boy's forehead to snap him out of it. Good thing Izuku's Vector Quirk wasn't on, otherwise he'd lose a finger.
"What?"
"Stop frowning, you'll get wrinkles." Shinsō told him.
"Are you my mom?" Izuku shot back.
"If you were my son I'd give you a spanking, but Inko-san can do that."
"Smartass."
"Thank you."
As they walked to a tunnel, where there was a sewer, Izuku stopped in his tracks which alerted Shinsō.
"Being followed?" The Brainwash user got ready to bring out his explosive darts if necessary.
"No, but something is coming." Izuku said.
Just as he said, the Sludge Villain appeared and spotted the two boys with a smirk.
"Not bad looking bodies, wonder which one of you will be useful against that pest?" The Sludge Villain grinned.
Shinsō's eyes narrowed, "This guy was on the Hero App this morning for petty robbery. Last I'd heard, All Might was chasing after him."
"He must be the "pest" then." Izuku guessed.
The Sludge Villain's eyes landed on Izuku with a wide grin, "You'll do." Sludge like tentacles shot towards Izuku who wasn't worried at all. Why? Simple, because his Reflection ability blocked the tentacles from touching him.
"Annoying," Izuku sighed, "Shinsō, get behind me."
"Roger."
The Sludge Vilain blinked, "What the hell?" He tried again and again, but his sludge tentacles just couldn't touch Izuku no matter what he did.
"Your nasty tentacles won't touch me, and seriously tentacles? Are you into that Hentai stuff cause I'm not." Izuku sneered at the tentacles with disgust.
Shinsō snorted and had to cover his mouth with his hand so he wouldn't bust out laughing.
"You little shi—!"
"I AM..." All Might bursts out from below the ground, wearing nothing but a simple white shirt and pants, "HERE!"
"Finally, what took him so long?" Izuku questioned.
"Who knows? He is the Number #1 Hero, probably had alot of other stuff to take care of." Shinsō guessed.
Good point.
All Might wasted no time in taking the Sludge Villain down before scooping him up in a clear jar. One-sided, but at least the guy was taken care of.
"Are you young lads alright?" All Might asked.
"We're good, Izuku makes a great human shield." Shinsō said.
"Whatever." Izuku rolled his eyes.
All Might's eyes were on Izuku the moment the purple haired boy said his name. This boy is...
"Are you...Midoriya Izuku?" All Might asked.
Izuku raised a brow as All Might said his full name, had he'd met All Might before? Like in the past maybe?
"How do you my name?"
He was cautious as to how the Number #1 Hero in all of Japan knew him. In the back of his mind he felt like he'd met All Might before, question is where? Was it when...
All Might gave him a small grin,"You probably don't remember, but you were involved in a hostage situation along with your mother and friend years ago—"
"Stop."
Izuku cutting the man off came as a surprise to both All Might and Shinsō. The memories would sometimes still come back to haunt him. No matter what anyone said, he still had blood on his hands even though the blood belonged to scum who had no problem shooting at women and children. He didn't want to be reminded of what he did that day.
Never again.
Without another word he walked away from All Might with Shinsō following right behind him with worried steps. Shinsō knew why Izuku's mood was suddenly even worse now. Its because he knew that Izuku would never be able to forget what happened on that day. His mind wouldn't let him. There's a saying that "your memories can betray you," and it would sometimes happen to Izuku. Even Ren, his brother sensed that Izuku was still bothered by the "Black Arachnid Incident." Inko-san would unconsciously rub her healed shoulder wound, and Ochako would look behind her every five minutes to see if she was being followed.
It was still bothering all of them.
Even if they wanted to forget, their memories won't let them.
"You good?" Shinsō asked.
Izuku's frown slowly left his face, "Shinsō..."
"I know, you don't have to tell me. I could tell for a long time now." Shinsō confessed.
"You could?"
Of course he could.
"Its not just you, Inko-san and Uraraka still have scars from that day just like you." The purple haired teen observed.
A sigh escaped from Izuku's lips, "The memories will stay with me, whether I want them to or not. But, I won't let them control me."
"I know you won't. Because you're Izuku." Shinsō smirked.
Izuku raised a brow, "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Not telling."
"You're such a brat."
"You love me and you know it."
"Hmph."
BOOM
Hearing an explosion not too far from them they stopped walking. That explosion sounded pretty close to where they were.
"The hell was that?" Shinsō wondered.
"Its coming from over there." Izuku pointed in the direction of the explosion.
Without even thinking, they ran in the direction where the explosion sound came from and finally arrrived. What they saw was utter chaos. The three Heroes, Mt. Lady, Kamui Woods, and Death Arms looked like headless chickens while the only hero that was doing a decent job was Backdraft, who was trying to put the flames out.
"Hey, isn't that...?" Shinsō started to say.
"That Sludge Villain from earlier, but I thought All Might took care of him already." Izuku wondered just what the hell the Number #1 was doing? Not only did the villain escape him again, but now it had a hostage...that looked very familiar.
"Shinsō...please tell me my eyes are deceiving me..." Izuku looked so done.
"Yeah...its Bakugo." Shinsō looked just as disturbed as Izuku.
The way the villain had wrapped Bakugo up in its sludge like body was...disgusting. Surely Bakugo was humiliated to be used as a hostage, especially by a villain with a sludge body.
Seriously disgusting.
"Hey, wait! That's the villain All Might was chasing earlier, isn't it?"
"Did he escape All Might or something?"
"And where is All Might?"
The very same man they were talking about was in the crowd, panicking about what to do. Transforming with this much people around would freak them out and find out his true identity, but if he doesn't do something then that boy will die.
'I have to do something! If I just continue to stand here then that boy-!' Toshinori thought of his options.
Izuku and Shinsō eyed each other as they saw Bakugo give a pleading look to the crowd for someone, anyone to save him.
"So what do you think?" Shinsō asked.
"We might as well." Izuku answered.
As much as they couldn't stand Bakugo they weren't so heartless enough to just let him die of suffocation. Ignoring the heroes and the crowd behind them both boys walked forward without hesitation.
"Shinsō." Izuku said.
"I already know."
The villain noticed them with a grin, "Oh, its you two again."
Shinsō smirked, "Hey, how does it feel to be a disgusting perverted sludge who likes to send sludge tentacles at boys?"
Izuku snorted.
Behind them the crowd had various looks of disgust on their faces, even the heroes.
"Wait...so the villain's a pedophile?!"
"Ewww!"
"Sicko!"
"Scumbag!"
"Please save that boy! He could be molesting him!"
"Burn that disgusting piece of sludge!"
Toshinori sweat-dropped as the crowd spewed venomous words at the Sludge Villain, who he noticed was appalled by the accusation. The hostage, whose face was once laced with fear of his current situation now had a look of disgust.
'At least the boy managed to distract the villain.' So that was a good thing.
The villain didn't seem to think so as his facial expression showed it, "I'M NOT A FUCKING PEDOPHILE YOU—!" And just like that his eyes became completely white and lifeless.
"Now, release Bakugo and use those tentacles of yours to bring him towards the heroes." Shinsō ordered.
The Sludge villain did just that. He freed Bakugo and moved him over to the heroes, who immediately checked on him.
"He actually let the kid go..." Kamui Woods uttered in disbelief.
"Did that purple haired boy do something to make that happen?" Mt. Lady wondered.
"A Brainwashing Quirk? What a convenient Quirk to have." Death Arms said.
Shinsō was ignoring them as he focused on the sludge villain. With Bakugo out of harms way, there was no one stopping the heroes from attacking the creep. Except they still weren't moving their asses, so he and Izuku will just have to take care of this guy.
"Shinsō, cancel your Quirk. I've got this." Izuku told him.
"Will do."
As requested, he cancelled his Quirks effects on the villain and got the hell out of the way, by standing near the dumbfounded heroes. He did his part, now it was Izuku's turn.
The Sludge Villain looked confused before he realized that his hostage was over by the heroes.
"The hell...?" His eyes then landed on Izuku, "You brat!"
An electric shock cut off his anger and rage towards Izuku who stood there with a bored look on his face.
"Huh...well isn't that interesting," Izuku muttered out loud, "So you can electrocute sludge? Good to know."
Shinsō rolled his eyes, "Try not to kill him, even though you'd probably be doing the world a favor."
"Don't say that so casually!" Death Arms exclaimed.
"Tch," Izuku clicked his teeth, "I mean, of course I wouldn't do that."
"I heard you click your teeth, kid!" Death Arms yelled.
The burnt sludge villain was still conscious. Interesting.
"Still conscious, are you?"
The villain glared.
"Good. Cause I wanna keep electrocuting you as payback for earlier," Izuku gave him a sweet smile, "So...shall we?"
The villain did what his instincts told him to do...and that was run.
"Ah!"
"He's running away!"
Izuku sighed and took out an arcade coin, making Shinsō flinch.
"Not good...everybody might wanna take a few steps back." Shinsō warned.
"Why?" Kamui Woods asked curiously.
"You're about to see in a minute."
Flipping the coin in the air he lifted up his left arm, "Hate to break it to you, but...I can still get to you, even if you run away from me," as the coin fell back down he uttered the words Shinsō had long associated with as the final blow, "Chō-Denjihō: Rērugan (Super Electromagnetic Cannon: Railgun)." Firing the powerful electric canon, he stared impassively as it tore through the sludge villain, but enough to kill. He felt bad that he tore some concrete off the road, but somebody will repair it. Putting his arm down, he saw some sludge was scattered on the streets but still twitching, so he knows the creep is still alive.
He sighed, "Well...that was annoying."
Just as he said those words the crowd started cheering and clapping for him. The heroes gathered were impressed with not only his Quirk, but Shinsō's as well. Izuku and Shinsō left the area, not in the mood to deal with the police or heroes that showed up unaware of a pair of eyes on them.
Toshinori watched as they left the area, "He's gotten stronger...much stronger..." as his stared at Izuku's back he knew in that moment...that he had found his successor.
Location: Midoriya Residence
Having dropped Shinsō off and texting Ochako about what happened today, he finally went home. He sighed remembering how Bakugo had caught to them and yelled at Izuku for hiding his strength. His response was that he was under no obligation to tell Bakugo anything and went on his way along with Shinsō.
"I'm back!" He announced.
Man was it good to be home.
Small footsteps were running towards him before finding himself being hugged by Eri. With a smile he rubbed her head as he was very happy to see her.
"Welcome home, Izuku." Eri looked up at him with a smile.
"I'm back, Eri. Where's mom and Ren?"
"They went shopping."
"I see."
His mom had fully accepted Ren into the family and apologized to him. There really was no need for her to apologize, but knew that it was something she had decided to do and didn't try to go against it. She probably felt like she owed it to Ren. Ren of course simply gave her a hug as a way to ease her from any guilt she feels.
He and Eri sit down on the couch and wait for the two to come home. As he turned on the TV he saw that they were talking about the incident this afternoon. Good thing his mom was out shopping with Ren, otherwise she would be scolding him right now. Speaking of news, after they rescued Eri from those Yakuza scum their name and hideout was all over the place...but the members weren't caught. Despite All Might being there along with the police force to raid the place it was already cleaned out. Those guys were still out there though, out there looking for Eri while at the same time remaining a low profile.
Leaning his head back against the couch he let out a sigh.
"The world just keeps on turning..."
No matter what happens the world just keeps on turning.
The door opens as a familiar sweet voice announces itself.
"We're back!"
His mother's voice sounded happy, probably because she got to go shopping with Ren so they could have a mother and son bonding moment. It was cute.
"We're back from shopping, Ren reports." Ren said.
"Welcome back." Izuku got up from the couch and hugged his mother before hugging Ren, "Did you guys find what you were looking for?"
"Yep." Inko put the bags on the table, "How was your day at school? If I recall, you had a meeting today, didn't you?"
"Yeah, I can't wait to graduate so I can be done with those annoying meetings." Izuku said.
"Good luck, Ren encourages." Ren said hoping that would cheer him up.
Izuku gave him a awkward smile, "I appreciate the support..."
Inko giggled before remembering something, "Oh, I almost forgot to ask you! Will Shinsō be okay with taking the exams?"
"He'll be fine, I looked into what the participants are allowed to bring with them to the exams, and weapons are allowed. Of various kinds." Izuku assured her.
Meaning, Shinsō was allowed to bring his explosive darts since they were considered weapons.
She breathed a sigh of relief, so she was worried about it, huh?
"That's good. Me and his mother have been stressing over it." She confessed.
Izuku chuckled, "That is so like you, mom."
She pouted, "Mou, don't tease your mother!"
"Yes ma'am."
All four members of the Midoriya Family sat around the table and got ready for dinner. They were an odd family in the opinion of others, but they were just right in their own opinion. This was their family, and nothing was going to tear them apart.
Night came pretty quickly as all three Midoriya children were in bed. Eri was asleep of course, being a small child her only disadvantage is feeling really sleepy. She was already in bed with the twins, sleeping in between them, but by morning she'll have slept on either one's chest. Both twins stared at her peaceful sleeping expression with soft expressions.
"Her peaceful sleeping face is always adorable, Ren states as he observes the girl's face." Ren smiled.
Izuku gently rubbed her forehead, "She is cute. That'll be a problem when she gets older."
"Which is why we must eliminate the threats, Ren says seriously." Ren said.
"Haa..."
Izuku wondered if Ren was serious or not, but he did have a point. It'll be a cold day in hell before they let anyone near their precious Eri.
"Are you ready for the exams?" Ren asked.
"Yeah, how are you feeling about it?" Izuku questioned.
"Normal, Ren gives an honest reply."
"Figures." He chuckled softly before leaning down on the bed, "Let's do our best, Ren."
"Understood."
The day finally came as Izuku, Ren, and Shinsō were just standing there, waiting on Ochako. Mei was already doing the exam for the Support Department so they didn't have to wait on her. Izuku felt bad for the them though cause Mei has a habit of creating destructive inventions.
"So, we're just going to wait for her here?" Shinsō asked just to be sure.
"Yeah, she should be here soon though." Izuku said.
"I'm worried that if she does not show up soon then she will be late, Ren says, expressing his concern." Ren said.
"She'll be here don't worry." Izuku assures him.
"Get the hell out of the way, Deku!"
Izuku and Shinsō gave each other nervous glances as they heard Bakugo's voice and steps approach them.
Shit. Bakugo's the only one that doesn't know about Ren existence.
Ren looks back and gives Bakugo a blank stare, making him cease his walking.
"Wha..." Bakugo said with his mouth wide open like a gaping fish.
Well...damn.
Shinsō gave Izuku a glance, "What do we do...?"
"Nothing we can do..."
"True."
Ren was still staring at Bakugo blankly.
"Two...what the fuck...?"
Izuku was pretty sure Bakugo's brain was malfunctioning because he was unable to make words at Ren's appearance. In this case, he couldn't really blame the guy for he had pretty much the exact same reaction when he met Ren for the first time.
"Izuku-kun!"
Thank god, Ochako's here.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to run late—oh..." she paused when she saw Bakugo's dumbfounded expression when he spotted Ren.
Izuku grabbed her hand, "Time to go inside! Ren, lets go!"
"...Yes." Ren said as he followed Izuku and the others inside the building, leaving a still gaping Bakugo behind.
"What...the hell...?"
Izuku was trying to ignore Bakugo's glare as he was sitting in between him and Shinsō. Ochako and Ren were somewhere else. Unfortunately they had to be separated because they didn't go to the same school. Well, if anything happens Ochako will look after Ren, even though deep down he was still worried. He knew Ren could handle himself, but he can't but feel protective. A big brother's need to protect his younger sibling, perhaps? Well, whatever you would call it, the protective instincts he has for his brother will never fade. As he listened to Present Mic explain the second part of the Entrance Exam I was a little worried about Bakugo's reaction to Ren. It wasn't unexpected actually and there's also no need to explain anything to him either.
He just wanted to hurry up and get this exam over with.
Hopefully though, there won't be any problems.
Right...?
Ochako was wide eyed as she stared at the place where they were going to take the second part of the Entrance Exam. Izuku was a little impressed himself. U.A. certainly has some money in their pockets to have field like this. It looked like an ordinary city, tall buildings and all. Apparently this place is called Ground Beta and was one of the training areas the school uses. Useful.
"Impressed enough?" He jokes.
Ochako gave him a pout, "I can't help it! I wasn't expecting this!"
"That's the point, Ochako-chan."
"Hmph!"
She was so cute when she pouted.
"Can you two stop flirting? Its killing us over here." Shinsō said to them dryly.
Ren just stared at them, "I believe Shinsō is jealous because he has yet to find a suitable partner yet, Ren theorizes."
Shinsō looked ready to kill Ren and Izuku snorts.
"Is that so? Poor you..." Izuku struggled not to laugh as he said this.
"The hell with you both." Shinsō scowls playfully.
Ren pats his head, "There, there, Ren says trying to soothe his single friend."
Izuku and Ochako's shoulders were shaking as they tried to hold in their laughter. Shinsō's eyebrow was twitching uncontrollably as he was struggling not to attack Ren.
"Ren...stop petting me, like right now." Shinsō growled.
Ren tilts his head, "Why?"
Shinsō decides to turn his attention to the older sibling, "Do something."
Izuku managed to compose himself, "The person you are trying to get into contact with is unavailable, please try again."
Ochako giggled.
"You damn twins."
"You love us and you know it."
"Tch."
The moment between them all didn't last though as a hand clapped hard on Ren's shoulder. Ren turned to the source calmly, Izuku frowned immediately as he noticed the hand belonged to the boy in glasses. Now what Izuku didn't like is anyone touching his brother, especially strangers. Its okay for Shinsō, Ochako, Eri, Mei, and Mom, but strangers...
Hell no.
"You lot are being very rowdy," the glasses wearing boy told them, "And you," his eyes were on Ren who still gave him a blank stare, "Treating a fellow examinee in such a way is disrespectful!" He said to Ren, his grip on his shoulder tightening.
Izuku didn't even think.
In an instant he gripped the glasses wearing boy's wrist. Izuku was struggling not to break this guy's wrist. How dare he say all that crap about his brother? Asshole!
"You..." his tone was cold and borderline murderous, "Don't you ever touch him...not now, not ever..." his eyes expressed just how angry he was, "Touch him again...and I'll do more than just shatter all of the bones in your wrist..." To emphasize how serious he was the grip he had on the boy's tightens a little. But not enough to actually break the bones in his wrist.
"Shit!" Shinsō cursed in the background. Everybody else watched the exchange nervously between Izuku and glasses guy, but the purple haired boy was worried for a different reason.
Izuku's Overprotective Mode.
It was dangerous. Very dangerous. It wasn't the first time he's gone into this mode either. He used it once when some creep was leering at Mei when they went out shopping one day. The glare Izuku gave the guy actually made him pass out.
Takes some serious bloodlust to pull that off.
Well...compared to Izuku's other mode, this one was only dangerous if you didn't intervene, but there was no need for him to intervene though.
For he had Ochako.
Speaking of Ochako, she wasted no time and marching right up to him and whacking him on the back of the head, causing a yelp to escape his lips.
Izuku let go to the boy's wrist and gave Ochako a look of betrayal.
"Ochako-chan..." he whined.
"Don't, "Ochako-chan," me!" She chided, "No threatening!"
He looked away with a pout, "I didn't threaten him..."
"And you!" Ochako pointed at the glasses wearing boy, "No being mean to people!"
"..."
The glasses wearing boy couldn't say anything back at her.
Shinsō clapped his hands, "Okay, that's enough. Right, Ren?"
Ren nodded as he grabbed Izuku's hand.
"Let's keep the bloodshed to a minimum, alright?"
"Haha..." Izuku said sarcastically.
With the hostilities over with the four of them went up to the front of the crowd, which gave them a wide berth as they walked to the front. Not that Izuku minded because he didn't.
"Big brother, I am alright now, therefore there is no longer a need for you to keep holding my arm." Ren told him.
"No. This is to make sure no one tries to harass you again," Izuku eyed the others taking the exam, "And if someone tries something..." his threat was heard as everyone else around them backed away slowly.
Ren sighed, "Goodness, such a troublesome brother I have, Ren says with a sigh."
"Like you can talk..." Izuku and Shinsō muttered.
Ochako giggled, "You guys ready for this?"
"As ready as we'll ever be." Shinsō shrugged.
"Yosh!" Ochako raised her fist in the air, "Let's do our best!"
"Yeah." Izuku, Ren, and Shinsō followed her example.
Soon Present Mic's voice was heard over the speaker, "YOU READY LISTENERS?! GOOD! LET'S GET'S STARTED!"
As soon as the gate opened, Ochako, Izuku, Ren, and Shinsō ran forward, confusing the other examinees.
"WHAT'S WITH THOSE DUMBFOUNDED FACES?! THERE'S NO SIGNAL FOR YOU GUYS TO GET THE BALL ROLLING!" Present Mic told them.
The dumbfounded examinees didn't stay that way for long as they followed the four who got a head start and ran forward.
Izuku and the others got pretty far, which was good because now...they could let loose.
"You guys know what too do!" Izuku said.
"Roger." Ren said.
"Let's get this over with." Shinsō said, brandishing his darts.
Ochako got her hands ready, "I'm ready, Izuku-kun!"
With a nod, Izuku and Ochako split up from Shinsō and Ren.
With Izuku and Ochako
Izuku and Ochako decided to pair up together while Ren and Shinsō became paired together. As soon as the two ended up in a secluded part of the city where they were instantly surrounded by 2 and 3 Pointers.
Ochako wasn't worried and instead had a massive grin on her face, "Let's do this, Izuku-kun!"
A wicked grin appeared on his face, "Took the words right out of my mouth," he said as five 2 pointers charged at him, "Hōden (Electric Discharge)!" Releasing a large quantity of electricity from his body he zapped all five of them in an instant.
"My turn!" Ochako was like a blur as he touched four 3 pointers before backing up and pressing her fingers together as the four 3 pointers were lifted in the air, "Kaijo (Skill Release)!" All four 3 pointers were sent to the ground where they were destroyed.
"That's gotten better." Izuku complimented.
"Thanks." She grinned, "Oh, by the way, does it say participants are allowed to help each other?"
"Didn't hear or see it not be mentioned." Izuku said.
"True."
And with that the two of them continued to slaughter more Robot Pointers with battle grins on their faces that made some participants avoid them like the plague.
Observation Room
Unknown to the students taking the second part of the exam, they were being watched by falculty members. While they complimented some of the students on the usage of their Quirks, they were more interested in Izuku, Ochako, Shinsō, and Ren. As soon as the gate opened they ran forward and split up into two pairs before going at it.
"Those two are going to town on those robots!" Present Mic grinned.
Midnight smirked, "They're in perfect synch with each other...how delicious."
"Eh..." Present Mic said.
"Hmmm," Vlad King said as he read a piece of paper in his hand, "According to this, the twins Midoriya Izuku and Ren have two Quirks, but Midoriya Izuku has only used one."
"TWO QUIRKS?!" Present Mic and Midnight exclaimed.
"Why are you two so surprised? There have been cases where some people develop two Quirks, even though its rare." Vlad King explained.
"Yeah, but...I've never actually seen it before though so you can't really blame me for being shocked." Present Mic rubbed the back of his head, a little embarrassed.
Nedzu the principal with animal like features stared with interest at the older twin before moving onto the youngest, who was paired up with Shinsō.
With Ren and Shinsō
Ren and Shinsō, like Izuku and Ochako decided to stay together during the second part of the exam. Shinsō threw his explosive darts at some 2 and 3 pointer robots and watched as they exploded. Man was he glad Izuku looked up the information about the second part of the exam that allowed weapons this year. And by 'look up' he means 'hacked' but since Izuku can get in and out without being traced the information might as well be looked up.
Ren stood there calmly as he was surrounded by 3-Pointer robots.
"Kaden Ryūshi Kyūshū (Charged Particle Absorption)." Absorbing charged particles into his body, he released that absorbed energy and decimated them all without mercy.
Shinsō smirked as he tossed another explosive dart at a pointer, "How long have you been working on that?"
"For a very long time, Ren says with enthusiasm." Ren replied.
"I'm not even surprised."
The two man team of Izuku & Ochako, Ren & Shinsō continued to destroy some robot pointer, while at the same time helping out some fellow examinees. While true the second part of the exam was to gain points by taking down the pointer robots, it was more than that. They could tell after Present Mic explained about the Zero Pointer. Why bring it up in the exam in the first place if they weren't supposed to attack it? Either what he said about it reducing their points back to zero was true, or it was only worth zero points. Another thing that got Izuku's attention was the fact that taking out the pointers wasn't all the exam was about. No, it had to be about rescuing others, too. When you stop and think about it, this is a school training those who want to become heroes, so of course rescue points should be added into the mix, even though it wasn't explained.
Ren sighed as he sat down on one of the defeated pointer robots, "I believe we have sufficient enough points, Ren says as he fans his face, feeling tired."
Shinsō sat down next to him, "I'm all out of darts, but I think I have enough points."
"I'm a little tired, but can still keep going!" Ochako grinned.
Izuku stroked her cheek, "Don't push yourself too much, okay?"
She pouted with a small blush, "I know..."
"Oi, flirt somewhere else," Shinsō deadpanned, "Some of us are still single."
A loud sound that sounded like giant footsteps got their attention. Looking up they came face to face with the Zero Pointer present Mic explained. The one thing they didn't expect from the Zero Pointer was the fact that it was freaking huge!
"A giant robot...where do they get the money for this?" Shinsō's tone was laced with curiosity with a bit of nervousness.
"Such a robot would be most effective in a war. The devastation it would cause in its wake would horrifying, Ren says casually." Ren said.
"Don't say that so casually." Shinsō deadpanned.
"What should we do?" Ochako questioned.
Izuku didn't see a reason to attack the Zero Pointer since it was only worth 0 points. But just as Izuku was about to suggest they leave like the others he noticed a girl with green vine like hair was down and no one was helping her. Too busy trying to save their own asses.
Future Heroes indeed.
"There's somebody down and the Zero pointer is about to step on her." Izuku told them, "We help her and if the thing tries to attack us...fight back."
All four sprinted into action. Ren immediately saw the vine green haired girl and went to her.
"Pardon me, Ren says as he acts gentlemanly." Ren picked her up and placed her near Shinsō, "Watch her."
"Will do." Shinsō saluted.
Ren went back to help Ochako and Izuku take down the Zero Pointer. Ochako touched some of the nearby debris and launched them at the Zero Pointer's legs, halting its movements for a little bit.
Izuku and Ren gave each other a look before giving Ochako a hand. Izuku summoned black tornadoes from his back to help him get in the air. Ren didn't hesitate to use his ability to poke holes in the Zero Pointer's legs and arms. Its knees were on the ground as it slumped over.
Izuku was above the Zero Pointer, but was upside down, not that he minded though. With the coin in his hand, he angled it just right before getting ready to attack.
"Nothing personal, but I got out of giant robots years ago...Chō-Denjihō: Rērugan (Super Electromagnetic Cannon: Railgun)!" He launched the Railgun at the Zero Pointer, creating a massive whole in its middle. As Izuku landed safely on the ground, the defeated Zero Pointer fell forward and didn't get back up.
"Whew." Izuku said.
Ren clapped his hands, "Excellent work, Ren congratulates big brother."
Shinsō smirked, "Overkill, but whatever."
"Yeah, yeah." Izuku waved his hand.
"I wonder when the exam is going to be over?" Ochako wondered.
"TIMES UP!" Present Mic's voice boomed.
"Guess that answered my question." She said.
Izuku yawned, "I'm sleepy...I'll take a nap on the bus on the way home..."
"Ren will do the same..." Ren yawned.
Shinsō chuckled, "Yeah, you two are definitely brothers."
Ochako smiled.
Observation Room
"THAT WAS AWESOME!" Present Mic yelled.
"Shut up..." a tired voice said.
"What an amazing final attack, and so brutal." Midnight smirked.
"Those twins," Vlad King said, "They're not normal..."
Principal Nedzu smiled in good nature, "All four of them were interesting. I look forward to seeing them in our school, right?" He turned to a buff and blonde haired man.
Said blonde man, Toshinori Yagi or better known as All Might had seen everything and was beyond impressed. Midoriya Izuku had grown leaps and bounds compared to when he last saw the boy. But what strikes him as odd was the fact that the boy had a twin brother. He doesn't remember seeing him all those years ago, maybe he was staying with a relative at the time? Well...what's important is the fact that both of them passed along with their friend with flying colors.
He looked forward to seeing him in the school, he also needed to apologize for their previous encounter. Him bringing up the robbery probably brought up some unpleasant memories and he needed to fix that.
After going through the standard ceremony for the last day of Middle School and passing on the Disciplinary Committee job over to people Izuku and Shinsō trusted they prepared to take a nice long break. Bakugo tried to corner Izuku and demand to know about Ren, claiming that he doesn't have a brother and wants to know what the hell is going on. Shinsō used his Quirk on Bakugo and they left it at that. Sooner or later though Bakugo would keep pestering him about it again, and Aunt Mitsuki will want to know everything, too. He'll have to let his mom handle that one. Izuku spend all that time before it was time to start High School to hang out with his family, Shinsō, Ochako, and Mei.
Speaking of which...
She caused quite the scene during the Support Course Exam. And that was creating a laser canon made out of a hair dryer, a bracelet that lets someone become invisible, etc.
Mei was called a prodigy by one of the teachers for being able to create weapons out of normal household items and accessories. He still felt bad for the Support Course because they had no idea of the terror known as Mei Hatsume.
He'll be sending silent prayers to the teacher.
The acceptance letter came from U.A. and All Might appeared on a holographic screen. The holographic All Might explained how he passed the written portion and second part of the exam with flying colors, and was placed first. He chuckled when he saw that Bakugo was placed fourth, behind Shinsō. Guess Bakugo was more focused on the Villain Points that Rescue Points, but Bakugo probably didn't know about the rescue points. Look like all four of them got into U.A. Let's see what this famous High School has to offer them.
Location: U.A. High School
"Its just this way." Izuku said, as they headed off towards where their class room is. It was just their luck that all four of them were in the same class. That was either a coincidence or on purpose. Probably on purpose.
"Big brother, this is our destination, Ren says pointing at the large door with the letter 'A' on it." Ren pointed.
"So it is, but why a large door?" Izuku questioned.
"Who knows?" Shinsō shrugged.
"You guys think Bakugo and that rude kid with the glasses will be in our class?" Ochako asked.
Izuku frowned at the mention of the two.
Shinsō made a mental prayer that those two won't be in the same class as them.
Ren opened the door and sure enough, what they hoped for didn't happen.
"Remove your feet from the desk at once!" The glasses wearing boy said.
"HA! Don't order me around, four-eyes!" Bakugo grinned.
Ren turned to his brother and friends, "It would appear they are in our class, Ren states the obvious."
"Thank you for that Ren." Shinsō said sarcastically.
The boy in glasses noticed them and approached. Izuku was about to stand in front of his brother when the boy bowed, "I am truly sorry for my behavior during the exam! My name is Iida Tanya and I hope we get along this year!"
Izuku was taken back by the sincerity in his voice, but otherwise didn't see a reason to call him out on his behavior again.
"You are forgiven, Ren says forgiving the boy." Ren spoke first.
Izuku sighed, "If my brother forgives you, then its fine."
Shinsō rubbed the back of his head, "You're not a bad person...just a prude."
Ochako giggled.
Tenya stood straight, "Excuse me for saying this out of the blue, but by any chance did you all know of the Rescue Points? Is that why you fought the Zero Pointer?"
"Nope." Izuku and Shinsō said.
"We didn't have a clue." Ochako scratched her cheek in embarrassment.
"We speculated, but unaware if such a point system existed, Says Ren as he clarifies." Ren said.
"I-I see..." Tenya said.
Bakugo stood up from his seat, "What the hell are you two doing here along with that clone?"
Izuku and Shinsō didn't react outwardly, but inside they were panicking before realizing Bakugo probably had no idea Ren was an actual clone of Izuku's deceased younger twin brother.
Ren gave Bakugo a blank stare before looking down, "There is an unidentified individual here in the classroom with us that has been watching us for quite some time, Says Ren as he stares down at the yellow sleeping bag with a person inside of it."
Izuku and the rest of the class looked down and did indeed see a yellow sleeping bag with a person's face showing. The guy looked pale with wavy black hair, with lethargic eyes. Said eyes were focused on Ren as he kept staring at the man.
"If you brats are here to get acquainted with each other then get out." The man said tiredly.
Ren bent down, "You misunderstand, we have already been acquainted and are simply talking as we waited for you, our home room teacher to appear. Ren must say though, the fact that you crawled all the way here in a sleeping bag indicates that you are very tired and if that is the case, then Ren shall escort you to the nurse's office where you can receive proper rest, Says Ren as he offers the tired teacher a helping hand."
"..."
Izuku sighed as Shinsō and Ochako snorted, trying to hold in their laughter at Ren response. The rest of the class gave him confused looks because of the way he talks. Ren will always be Ren, so there's no need to try and force him to change the way he speaks.
"Ren...I'm sure our teacher appreciates your concern, but I think he wants to hurry up and start class now." Izuku said sounding used to this.
"Understood." Ren says standing back up before bowing, "Please forgive Ren for the interruption, Says Ren as he apologizes."
"..." the man stared at Ren again with that expression before getting out of the sleeping back. The man was wearing a black jumpsuit with a grey scarf around his neck, "The names Shota Aizawa and I'll be your homeroom teacher for the year. It took you brats 8 seconds to shut up, meaning you lack common sense."
Izuku eyed Shinsō, seeing his friend have a hidden awestruck look on his face. This guy must be Eraser Head then if he looks starstruck.
Aizawa then brought out some gym clothes, "Put these on and meet me outside. The location is the P.E. grounds."
One by one, everyone in the class grabbed a blue and white uniform before leaving the classroom.
The whole class stood before Aizawa who looked like he had something planned for them.
"Listen up, we'll be doing a Quirk Assessment Test." He said.
"Quirk Assessment Test?" The pink haired girl questioned, "Are we skipping the Initiation Ceremony?"
"You lot plan on being heroes in the near future, right? Then you don't have time for pointless things." Aizawa told them harshly, "We have an amount of freedom here at U.A. that I plan to use."
Izuku wondered what he was planing.
"50-Meter Dash, Grip Strength, Standing Long Jump, Upper Body Exercise, Ball Throw, and Villain Bot Simulation. Some of this stuff you should know from Middle School, but the Villain Bot Combat Simulation is different. For this part of the exercise you will be using your Quirks on the same Villain Bots you faced in the Entrance Exams. The reason for this is to see how well you handle combat situations." He explained flatly.
Izuku leaned in close to Shinsō, "You have them on you, right?"
"Always."
There was no reason to ask, but he wanted to make sure.
"Midoriya, how far could you throw in Middle School?" Aizawa asked.
"90 meters, I think." Izuku didn't really remember cause it had felt like such a long time.
Shinsō snorted lightly.
Aizawa tossed a ball at him and Izuku caught it easily with one hand, "Use your Quirk to throw it as far as you can. It doesn't matter how you do it, so long as you don't leave the circle."
Izuku walked inside the circle and prepared to use his Lightning ability but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Aizawa's grey scarf move, "Sensei, may I ask what you're doing?"
Aizawa raised a brow, "What are you talking about?"
"Well...just as I was about to prepare to throw the ball I noticed your scarf moving. Care to tell me why?" Izuku asked casually.
"Ren also noticed and was preparing to go on the defensive should it be something that would harm big brother, Says Ren as he watched Shota Aizawa closely." Ren kept his firm gaze on Aizawa.
"Oi, oi, keep the bloodshed at zero percent." Shinsō said dryly.
"...Uh, you guys are joking, right?" The spiky red haired kid spoke unsurely.
Aizawa kept his gaze on Izuku, "In your Quirk Registration information it says you are a Dual Quirk User."
"What would be your point?" Izuku countered.
"Do you plan on using both, or just half-ass it?" Aizawa didn't hold back in his question.
Izuku hummed as he brought up the soft ball in his hand as electricity coursed through the ball, "Half-ass," huh...?" Without hesitation he threw the ball high in the air as the aftershock sent some of the class behind him falling backwards. When the smoke cleared the class saw Izuku stand in the middle of a crater, "I don't think I can." He finished.
"...What the hell?"
"He actually made a crater..."
"Just what are his Quirks...?"
Aizawa was dumbfounded himself as looked at the results.
[2138.9 meters]
"Holy! Is that even accurate?!"
"The guy did create a crater, but still..."
Izuku walked back over to Ochako, his brother, and best friend. There was no reason for him to hold back since Eraser Head gave him the okay.
"That actually looks like fun!" The same pink haired girl grinned.
Aizawa's aura changed, "Looks fun'" you say?" The other students felt his sudden change and gulped, "You think this is some kind of game? Didn't you brats come here to be heroes or am I wrong?"
'Uh-oh...looks like he's snapped.' Izuku thought.
"Since you feel that way then I should tell you that whoever ranks last will be expelled." He declared.
Izuku saw some students grow worried, but Shinsō and Ochako were okay, but they were still a little scared by the threat. He and Ren should be fine for obvious reasons, but they couldn't slack off.
"This is the Hero Course, we do things differently here than other departments," Aizawa told them, "We plan on pushing you past your limits, so be prepared. If you planning on spending the next three years here chatting up a storm with your friends, then too bad."
He then smirked, "Now then...let's begin."
The first test was the 50-Meter Dash.
Tenya had proved that his Quirk was useful when it comes to speed, clocking in at 3.04 seconds. Ochako did her best with 4.12 seconds, beating her previous score back in Middle School. Shinsō and Ren went up against each other, both of them did really well, Shinsō clocked in an impressive 5.14 seconds, while Ren got a 1.10 seconds. This left some of their classmates with open mouths as they stared at his score, but that didn't last long when it was Izuku's turn. He was (surprise, surprise) up against Bakugo. Why must it always be him he had to be paired with? Was someone trying to torment him or something? Instead of using his Electrokenesis ability, he used his Vector Manipulation to hurry and finish this. With a tap of his foot he was off like a bullet and arrived quickly to the finish line. His was 1.09 seconds, one point ahead of Ren. Bakugo's was 4.12 seconds.
"These two are insane! 1 second for both of them?!" The little purple midget exclaimed.
"For real, and one of them uses electricity like me. Talk about jealous." A blonde with black streaks in his hair said.
The next was grip strength. The three stand outs where a boy named Mezo Shoji with 540.0 kg, Ren with 876.3 kg, and Izuku with 910.5 kg. Funny thing about Ren's score was that he wasn't even using his Quirk for this one. Being a clone his strength is already enhanced, Izuku some vectors to enhance his grip. Good thing he didn't brake the device.
They did some other exercises and it was becoming clear that Izuku and the gang were becoming the standouts in the class, but mostly Izuku and Ren. When it was time for the Ball Throw, Ochako got first, wanna know why?
[∞]
That was her actual score. She had sent the ball all the way up in the air, probably in space, too. Ochako looked proud of her achievement and Izuku couldn't help but chuckle. Everybody had gotten good scores, too. Ren was the last one to go. As he held the ball he looked over at Aizawa.
"Ren has a request." Ren said to the man.
Aizawa raised a brow, "What is it?"
"Ren is allowed to go all out, correct? Asks Ren wanting to clarify things." Ren said.
"Yeah, I don't care what you do, so long as you don't half-ass it." He said.
"Very well," Ren's hand glowed green with the softball in hand, "Tsubuki Hakei Kōsokuhō (Particle Waveform High-Speed Cannon)." He threw the ball with a particle like canon that sent the ball flying, which possibly already disintegrated already.
Ren stares after the ball blankly before looking over at his teacher, "How did Ren do, Asks Ren bursting with anticipation."
Aizawa was pretty done trying to figure these damn twins out. They were odd, one has an odd air around him, and the other one talks weird, either on purpose or not. With a sigh he showed how he did.
[2076.5 meters]
Ren nods in satisfaction as his classmates couldn't believe both brothers were in the two-thousands range. Shinsō and Ochako weren't surprised in the least, while Bakugo looked ready to go on the offensive. He still didn't know who Ren was, having never been introduced to him before.
Ren went over by Izuku and bowed his head, "Ren asks to be pat on the head for he got a good score, Says Ren as he waits patiently for big brother to pat his head."
Izuku huffed in amusement and did just that, "You did really good, Ren."
"Good enough to receive Milk tea as a reward? Says Ren hoping big brother will get the hint." Ren said with a glint in his eye.
"So that's what you were really going for..."
So Ren can be calculating and sneaky. What a sneaky little brother.
"Fine...I'll make you some when we get home." He promised.
Ren didn't hesitate to hug Izuku, who returned it.
"Awww~" Ochako and some other girls swooned.
Shinsō gave them a dry look, "Stop already. Your brotherly love is killing me."
"Do not feel jealous because Ren will always be placed first in big brother's heart, Says Ren as he gives a teasing smirk to Shinsō." Ren smirked.
"I am not jealous." Shinsō retorted.
"And what do you mean special place?!" Ochako demanded.
"It means you are second, Ren clarifies." Ren said.
Ochako pouted, "Mou, no fair!"
"C-Calm down, Uraraka-san!" Tenya tried calming her down.
"Enough," Aizawa's sharp voice interrupted them, "You brats still need to do the Villain Bot Simulation. Follow me."
Location: U.A. High School Simulation Room
The room was impressive. It was like one of those simulation rooms you would play in a video game. And this is what they were going to use to fight the Villain Robots.
"This is where the combat simulation will take place." Aizawa said.
"Looks like one of those video game stages." The blonde with the black streak commented.
Izuku had to agree with him on that one.
"You lot will go individually, there will three Villain bots from the very same exam. If you feel like you can't continue then say so, the points you've earned in this simulation will be added to the points you've gathered for the Quirk Assessment Test exercises." He said.
Izuku eyed his classmates, 'No one looks tired yet, but still...he's not giving us any breathing room. The staff at U. A. are not messing around.'
"The first one to go up will be Bakugo Katsuki, everyone else wait up in the observation room." Aizawa told them.
Bakugo grinned maliciously as he was called to go up first. Everyone else was up in the observation room, watching how well Bakugo would do.
Aizawa started the simulation right away, "Get ready, Bakugo."
Bakugo merely grinned.
As the simulation started, two 2 Point Villain Bots came right at him. Bakugo destroyed them instantly with a savage grin on his face.
"That's all you've got?" Bakugo taunted, "You damn canon fodder!"
Observation Room
"Uwaa...he looks like a real villain with that kind of face." Mina commented.
"I agree." Momo said.
"Really? He looks super manly to me." Kirishima said with a grin.
Izuku sighed and leaned his head on Ochako's shoulder, "Sleepy..."
Ochako rubbed his head, "Stay awake, Izuku-kun. It could be your turn next."
"Mm..."
Ren leaned on Shinsō's shoulder, "Ren is also a little tired, Says Ren leaning on Shinsō's shoulder because Ochako has hogged big brother all to herself."
Ochako stuck her tongue out at him in a teasing manner.
Shinsō rolled his eyes and let Ren lay on his shoulder.
"Are they always like this?" Tenya asked.
"All the time. Welcome to the group."
"I am happy to be apart of it." Tenya said.
Bakugo had finally gotten tired enough to stop fighting the Villain Bots, even though he tried to deny it. His score was 80, two points higher than his Entrance Exam points. Aizawa continued to call on more students that Izuku fell asleep on Ochako's shoulder until it was time for her to go. He woke up with a pout but let her go, but when she got back he hogged her shoulder all to himself again. He vaguely remember her saying her score was 70 before passing out again.
"Izuku-kun, Izuku-kun!" Ochako shook his shoulder.
"Mnm..." he protested.
"Its your turn." She told him.
Reluctantly, he woke up with a yawn before standing up.
"Enjoy your nap?" Aizawa asked dryly.
A grumble was Izuku's response.
"Get down there, Midoriya."
Izuku sluggishly walked down, still feeling a little sleepy. Interrupting from his nap has severe consequences, one of which Shinsō, Ochako, Ren, and Mei already know about. Hell, even Inko-san knows, which is why she lets him wake up on his own or set an alarm clock.
Shinsō leaned in towards Ochako and whispered, "He still looked sleepy, didn't he?"
"Yep." She nodded.
They both looked at the screen.
"Too much to ask for him to keep calm?" Shinsō held on to some small hope.
"Not gonna happen." Ochako gave an uneasy, yet cheerful smile.
"Shit."
Ren nodded in agreement, much to Tenya's confusion.
"Oi, is he gonna be alright?"
"Yeah, he looks really tired."
Shinsō snorted, 'If only they knew.'
Aizawa decided to turn up the level from 3 to 10. He got the Principal's okay to test both the Midoriya Twins. He wanted to see what this kid was capable of.
"Wake up, Midoriya, we're starting." Aizawa told him through he microphone.
Izuku grunted as the scene changed to a city where there were no people around.
Simulation City
Izuku started walking down the street. No Villain Bots had attacked him yet, but they will soon enough. He had a sneaky suspicion that Aizawa had upped the level up just for him. Having been forced to cut his nap short, he was in a really bad mood. Which is why...he's not using his Electric ability, but his other one. If this was how Aizawa-sensei was going to play, then he'll respond in kind. All of a sudden, a 2-Pointer Villain Bot came at him from the right.
[Play—Song: Time to Attack]
Izuku stood there as the Villain Bot slammed into an invisible barrier that sent it flying backwards into the building, destroying is upon impact. He looked over at the defeated robot with an annoyed scowl as he saw the thing twitch a little.
So its still kicking is it?
Walking over to the twitching form of the robot he stomped on its middle, making is permanently cease movement.
Hearing multiple sounds coming from all around him he noticed it was more Villain Bots, and simply stood there as they came at him. All at once, they were obliterated just like that.
He let a small vicious grin appear on his face...
Let the hunt begin.
Resuming his walk around the city he spotted three more robots blocking his path in an alley. The middle one attacked him first, only to have Izuku grab its middle with one hand and dig his fingers in it, thanks to his Vector Ability.
"Three-vs.-one...not bad," he tossed it against the wall as its arms and legs were torn apart due to the impact, "But not good enough." Tapping his foot against the concrete he sent the two in front of him flying before they too slammed into the wall behind them and exploded upon impact.
"Different from the one's Bakugo fought, more coordinated." He said to himself before walking forward until he was out in the open and found himself surrounded by 5 Villain Bots.
"Five of you...whatever shall I do?" He teased, tilting his head like a curious child.
At once all five dived towards him. With a bored look the ground below him formed into earth spikes and stabbed all five of them in an instant.
"Good effort...but unfortunately, I've been attacked all at once before, so that won't work against me." Izuku hopped on one of the Villain Bots as the earth spikes crumbled. He looked up as he saw more Villain Bots appear. Okay, now this was starting to get on his damn nerves, not to mention boring.
"Ugh...they just keep coming." With a twisted grin he bent down and punched the Villain Bot he was standing on, making it explode as the after shock sent the others flying away from him.
Izuku let out an excited laugh, "Gyahahaha! Well, whatever! I'll just keep tearing you apart until I'm not bored anymore!"
Observation Room
Shinsō rubbed his temples, "That maniac is having way too much fun. That proves he's still tired. He'd never be acting like this if he was fully awake."
"So true..." Ochako said with a smile.
"His laughter sounds like an excited child playing with a toy for the very first time, Says Ren as he observes his big brother's behavior." Ren observes.
"How are all of you so calm about this?!" Tenya exclaimed in shock. To see such a change in personality in Izuku was...shocking to say the least.
"We're used to it." They said.
He sweat-dropped, "Okay...so how do you snap him out of such a dangerous personality change?"
Everyone else in the room was looking at them, too since they seem to be the experts on both Izuku and Ren.
"Wait for him to keep tearing those robots apart until he finally wakes up from his insane daze, or...have Ren or Ochako snap him out of it, or make him go back to sleep. This is why she told him not to take a nap, because then he would have to be woken up, and then he'd get cranky, and then this would happen." Shinsō said, sounding irritated.
"A-And...what is that Quirk he's using? I've never seen anything like it before." Momo asked.
Shinsō smirked, "You know about Vectors, right? That's what his other Quirk is based off of."
"How is that possible?! To think that...he could have such a Quirk..."
"Incredible..." Tenya said in awe.
"Eh? What? What are you guys talking about?" Kirishima asked.
Aizawa stared at Midoriya Izuku as he tore through the Villain Bots by either standing there or using variations of his Vector Quirk to eliminate them. What really bothered him was the change in personality, which according to Shinsō, Ochako, and the younger brother was a common thing if he didn't get much sleep. He had his moments when it comes to no sleep, but even he wasn't this bad. The simulation kept on going until finally, Midoriya was showing signs of getting tired.
"Midoriya, that's enough." He said as he ended the simulation.
Izuku stood there silently as the fictional city was no more. He finally moved, walking towards the stairs where the others were. It was silent when he entered as the others wanted to ask him what the hell was that, but didn't get a chance to for he went straight for Ochako. She sighed with a smile before patting her lap, which he didn't hesitate to put his head down on. And just like that he was out like a light.
"He is asleep, Says Ren as he listens to his brother's ready breathing." Ren said.
"Geez..." Shinsō leaned back in his seat, "I don't know which one of you is worse, or maybe you both are."
"Do not worry, for we plan on causing you more trouble in the near future, Says Ren with a happy expression." Ren said.
"God help me." Shinsō says playfully.
Aizawa sighed, 'I'm not getting paid enough for this...'
The simulation continued as Midoriya Izuku's score was 120, while Ren's was 117. So far the only students in the 100 range was the Midoriya Twins and Todoroki Shoto, whose score was 108. When the scores were finally tallied, no one was surprised that Izuku and Ren got 1st and 2nd place, Ochako got 10th place, and Shinsō was ranked 11th. The one that got last place was Mineta, the pervert. Izuku woke up to see the ranking and had only one question.
"So what was my score in the Simulation?" Izuku asked.
Shinsō gave him a dry look, "Never take a nap in school again."
"Huh?"
