Chapter 2: TEST (Tough Exams Stress Teens)
A train rocked gently as it thundered down the line towards Yueii prefecture and towards UA high, the premier heroics school in Japan. On board was Izuku midoriya who was currently looking through his small bag of gadgets he was allowed to bring for the exam. A GUMZOOKA, a AID (Awful Injury Deturant), a POGO (Pranced Over Ground Outstandingly), BOOTED (Breaks Overly Obvious Traps Every Day) and the only POW (Punches Overly Wildly) in existence as Mei hadn't submitted the plans for it before her decomissioning and he didn't have the heart to submit it in her name.
"Hey, seat taken?" A voice asked. Turning his head he spotted a ginger girl in a simple pair of jeans and a black gym shirt, a bag slung over her shoulder.
"Oh, uh, go ahead." Izuku replied as he zipped up his bag, trying his best not to stare or slip up with her name, after all she was the one who shoved him in the decomissioning chamber years ago.
"Name's Itsuka Kendo, nice to meet you." She smiled as she held out her hand.
"Uh, Izuku Midoriya." He replied hesitantly as he shook her hand.
"You headed for UA too?" She asked. When izuku nodded she gave a smile at him. "Pretty nerve wracking isn't it. My Quirk is Big Fist, just hope the exam is combat based ya know?"
"Uh yeah." Izuku replied haltingly.
"So, what's your quirk?" She asked.
"Uh, re-Ramshackled. I can turn junk into working gadgets in my hands." Izuku replied, almost spitting out the word recommissioning as so many KND operatives demanded to know how a teenager still worked for the KND whenever he came across the younger members. It was just odd to him that his superriors were all now decomissioned, heck he saw the former numbah 09 the other day at a skate park trying to learn how to skateboard.
"So, what, like I give you a paperclip and you make a car?" Kendo asked with a smirk and a raised eyebrow.
"Not nearly that crazy." Izuku waved her off nervously. "Give me a tube of glue, a bullclip, some wood and a stick of gum and I can make a pretty decent capture weapon out of it even if nothing lines up the way it should."
"Oh neat, you applying to the support class?" She asked with a smile.
"Hero corse actually." Izuku replied nervously as the train slowed to a stop at a station and more people jammed themselves in forcing Kendo to move closer which made him blush.
"Seriously? Your quirk could probably make you millions in support." Kendo replied honestly as the train once more began to move along.
"I-Im good. Gadgets was more of a friend of mine's thing, she could go on for litteral weeks about them, I remember one time we had to duck tape her mouth as she wouldn't stop." Izuku gave a soft chuckle at the memory. Mei had gotten into contact with a fresh from cadets Numbah 2 from America a few months before her decomissioning and frankly he was terrified of the resaulting creations and with the full backing of command had made sure they couldn't contact one another after they blew a hole in the moon base the size of a car when testing the SANDD (Space And Nearby Defencive Detonator). The gadget was basically a device to launch massive space proof baloons filled with baking soda and vinegar at whatever got too close, they were actually used on several moon base loading bays to destroy asteroids and anyone dumb enough to invade through the landing bays.
"Sounds like my eight year old cousin Hitoshi. None of what he makes works but he tries for sure." Kendo chuckled to herself while Izuku barely refrained from facepalming. He was well aware of number 2399 and his failed gadgets, the last one was meant to be an improved SCAMPP but instead of trigger functions it was constantly on and frankly they had to put it in a mirrored box to stop it slicing through everything. "So how about you? Got any family?"
"Well my mum works as an assistant for a somewhat unknown company." Izuku replied, it was the generally accepted answer his mother had been giving out since she got recommissioned. "I have a dad who works in middle management at a toilet paper company in America but I don't see him often and I have a cousin, aunt and uncle there too. I haven't met them in person though, only family photos."
"Huh neat, its just my parents and my little brother honestly." Kendo replied with a smile as the train finally slowed to a stop once more and the doors chimed twice. "This is our stop."
"Good luck." Izuku smiled as they bolted off the train along with a good 50 odd other people around their age. While Kendo proceeded straight through Izuku stopped to admire the view of the school.
"This is it. All my training has been leading me to this." Izuku smiled as he took a step forwards only for his eyes to widen as something in his BOOTED clicked. A trap. A loud explosion burst downwards cracking the pavers bellow his feet into five pieces.
"Hey are you okay?" A brown haired girl asked in concern as she rushed over. "Was that your quirk?"
"N-no, just my gadgets, they go off on traps." Izuku admitted with a slight stutter as he turned around. Why was it he was finding so many former KND operatives today?! Standing before him was the former number 51, he remembered her decomissioning too, she had freaked out and her quirk activated when she covered her face while crying, it took four decomissioning squad members to get her into the chamber.
"Really? That's pretty neat. Ochako Uraraka." She grinned as she held out a hand, her pinky tucked against her palm to avoid using her quirk.
"Izuku Midoriya." He replied with a grin as he shook her hand.
"Good luck with the tests then Midoriya san!" Ochako grinned before rushing inside.
"What is with my luck today?" Izuku muttered.
"OUT OF THE WAY DEKU!" A blonde teen snarled as he shoved his way past despite having had to of moved to the right to even get near izuku.
"Oh hey Kaachan." Izuku deadpanned. Despite not being former KND bakugo had knowledge of the delightful children from down the lane after the blonde copycat one picked a fight with him, since then he made it his mission to target the dork where possible.
The sound of loud bell chimes filled the air making Izuku's eyes widen as he rushed into the main auditorium for the first test. Unaware that a certain rat was watching everything with an amused grin that frankly disturbed the other teachers near him. As Izuku found his seat he could only sigh at the fact he had to sit next to Bakugo. He guessed that it was sorted by schools then.
"WHAT'S UP LITTLE LISTENERS CAN I GET A HEY?!" Called a blonde hero with swept back hair, thin mustache and a French accent. Nobody answered not even Izuku who was just confused as to what he was actually meant to do in response to that. Was he to stay quiet like the majority or jump up screaming like a excited fangirl with a shrug he made his choice.
Taking a deep breath izuku cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted, "YEAHHHHH!"
"FINALLY! SOMEBODY GETS IT! I LIKE YOUR STYLE LITTLE LISTNER. AYWAY, WELCOME TO UA ACADEMY ENTRANCE EXAMS! MY NAME IS PRESENT MIC I'LL BE YOUR COMBAT EXAMINER THIS SUNNY AFTERNOON. NOW THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF ENEMIES, THE 1 POINTER, 2 POINTER AND THREE POINTER!" Present Mic called out with a large grin, obviously aimed at someone in the observation box above the exam areas. Izuku could swear he heard the sound of someone headbutting a desk too.
It was at this point a glasses wearing teen with blue hair a few rows infront of them stood up, interrupting the pro hero. "Hold on, in the booklet handed out it stated there are 4 kinds of enemies not 3 how can we expect quality education if UA is fumbeling on something as basic as paperwork and you two!" He snapped rounding on Bakugo who was quietly swearing at everyone and Izuku who had started to mumble quietly to himself. "Your swearing is rude to the other students here, you should be ashamed." He then rounded on Izuku making him jump up from his chair defensively. "Your mumbling is distracting to the other students, are you not even taking this seriously?!"
"Hey I am taking this seriously, I've been training for years for this and nobody around me was complaining about any noise." Izuku rebutted. "You're three rows infront of me and two seats to the left yet you somehow heard me over the loudest hero alive? What are you a bully looking to pick on people?"
"The green kid is right."
"Yeah I can barely hear the kid yet he did? Something fishy man."
"What a jerk."
"Hey does the green guy look firmilular to you?"
"What an jerk, is he trying to make people fail?"
"Cough-jerk-cough"
"NOW NOW, SETTLE EVERYONE. GOOD QUESTION EXAMINEE 237301, TO ANSWER THE QUESTION THE FORTH ROBOT WILL BE AN OBSTICAL TO AVOID, A GIMIC IF YOU WILL!" The hero called loudly. "IF YOU GET TOO CLOSE, IT RAMPAGES. ANYWAY, EXAM STARTS IN 5 MINUTES, EVERYONE HEAD TO YOUR PREDETURMINED ARENAS."
Like a tidal wave the students rushed for their arenas, each vying for a spot near the front of the group to be closest to the doors when they opened. Izuku breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed Bakugo heading for a different arena than him, he didn't like him but he also didn't want to have to fight him either. A few meters ahead of where he was standing Izuku noticed Uraraka fidgeting nervously ahead of him.
He took all of two steps forwards when a hand clamped on his shoulder and jerked him back. On pure instinct izuku in one fluid motion pulled and fired a few rounds from a GUMZOOKA at the person holding him pelting them with enough gum to leave them bruised. The blue haired teen from before stumbled back as everyone looked towards them.
"What is your problem?!" Izuku demanded in annoyed anger. "I was going to wish a friend luck and you just yank me around like you're Spankula or something?!"
Some of the teens winced at that, spankula was a D class villain but still nobody wanted to be slapped by a guy who could slap a door in half easily. Many more however started glaring at the blue haired teen, realising he was the same teen who interrupted Present Mic before and started spreading it to their friends aswell. It wasn't long before the majority were glaring at the sputtering blue haired teen when a siren blared and the doors swung open.
Years of KND training saw Izuku rocket out the door first, using the POGO to bound over the crowd in two jumps before angling it to launch himself towards the first lot of robots while pulling out a spring loaded boxing glove in a box which had several cogs on it nailed down and a old wind up handle. With a single crank it retracted and fired a large boxing glove too big for the box to contain at the robots six times destroying two.
"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! REAL LIFE HAS NO COUNTDOWNS GO GO GO!" Present Mic called loudly, inwardly he was impressed with the green haired kid who within 3 seconds of the siren blaring had already scored 3 points from 2 robots and with a boxing glove!
Up in the observation box Power loader was screaming in annoyance as he pulled at his already receding hair. "NOT POSSIBLE!"
"YES YES! HAHAHA!" Nezu cackled like a maniac as they watched the students finally charge into the arena while Izuku had already gotten himself 4 robots with a total of 7 points between them and with a boxing glove of all things. A sickly skeletal man hummed to himself as he watched on but didn't offer anything beyond that.
"CURSE! YOU! MIDORIYA!" Power Loader screamed in anger, doing a weird pose for each word. Curse was a head stand, You was him screeching mid air and Midoriya was with him one more pulling at his hair as he grit his teeth.
"Hmm." Aizawa huffed tiredly. "What's his quirk?"
"NO! NONONONONO!" Power Loader roared. "KEEP HIM OUT OF SUPPORT CLASS! HE AND HATSUME ARE NEVER TO MEET, EVER!"
"Lucky he didn't apply for support." Nezu cackled. "As for your question, here is his file."
Nezu grinned as he handed a manilla file to aizawa who lazily flipped it open only to blink in surprise at the amount of black ink.
"Why is it so heavily censored?" He asked the rodent.
"All I will say is the kid is experienced." Nezu replied with a smug grin. "Several accounts of taking down D class villains, one of a C class villain and driving back a S class villain with help. All legally done too."
"Nezu what the hell?" Aizawa growled as the other teachers crowded, trying to see what was on the file that wasn't inked out. The damned rodent knew he hated to be crowded.
"All I will say for now." Nezu cackled. "Looks like the contestants have finally got half way through everything. Let's see how they do with thinning numbers shall we?"
"Damned rat. This keeps getting more dangerous each year!" Recovery Girl growled as she threw her cain at the principal which he merely ducked under then once more as the cain went flying back to her waiting hand.
Back down bellow Izuku was cleaving a path through the robots with an ease that left many contestants shocked, especially when the boxing glove gadget was destroyed by a 2 pointer and started using what could only be described as scrap metal stuck with bubble gum and scotch tape from a robot he destroyed and what was left from some teen who could shoot tape from his elbows. The monstrosity would scoop up the ruined road and fire chunks of gravel at things with enough force to send even the 3 pointers flying and ultimately when combined with the fact he was aiming the robots at other robots was just ridiculous with how many points he gained b
It wasn't just fighting robots, whenever one of the other contestants got in over their heads or was overwhelmed Izuku jumped in to help them, often leaving some robots trapped for them to take out aswell such as with the case of a purple haired teen who looked like he missed out of too much sleep to be healthy.
Eventually at the 12 minute mark izuku was finally exhausted and almost out of gadgets too. His GUMZOOKA was out of gumballs, his POGO was transport only, his POW was broken, hit BOOTED only worked on traps and his improvised gadget made of 2 pointer scraps was now finally starting to fall appart too.
"JUST THREE MINUTES LEFT CONTESTANTS! HERE COMES TO 0 POINTER!" Present Mic's voice called over the intercom as the ground began to shake violently and a massive figure rose above the skyline.
"Damn that is big." Izuku whistled in appreciation. "Probably bigger than the treehouse's robot form too."
With a flash of red the optics of the robot turned on as it rumbled forwards, its arms flailing around as it did so sending chunks of the roofs falling down bellow as the other contestants began to panic.
"Hmm, we need to get out of here. I don't think anything short of All Might or a TREEHOUSE can take it right now." Izuku hummed to himself as he made his way away from the rampaging robot with the other, just not screaming in panick or trying to shove others out of the way to get away themselves.
"OW! my leg! I'm stuck!" A voice cried in pain making Izuku stop and look back to see Ochako stuck under a slab of concrete with her arms pinned so she couldn't use her quirk.
"Hold on!" Izuku called as he worked his way through the other fleeing students to Ochako where he slid to a stop next to her. With a frown he tried and failed to lift the chunk of cement. "I have an idea, I'm going to wedge something in there then you slide out, okay?"
"Okay." Ochako nodded as Izuku wedged the remains of the 2 pointer scrap gadget under the rubble and heaved. With a grunt of pain Ochako managed to wriggle out but it was clear from the swelling around and the angle of her ankle it was broken or atleast sprained.
"Can you stand?" Izuku asked her. At her nod he handed her a metal rod from the now crushed scrap gadget then pointed at the approaching 0 pointer. "Use this as a crutch and try to head away from that thing, even if I help you we can't outrun it without it being slowed down first."
"What about you though?" Ochakp asked in worry as she took the pole.
"I'm going to stop it." Izuku smiled with determination as he pulled out his POGO and wacked his BOOTED against the side of a building hard, breaking the trigger mechanism before he ushered for Ochako to leave. "Okay, I have one shot at this. Battle stations!"
With a scream he charged the massive approaching robot as he brought his pogo down on the ground hard, sending him flying upwards at the nearby wall which he bounced off of.
Up in the observation box Power Loader was having another breakdown while Aizawa faceplanted the desk. "Of corse the problem child can wall jump."
"Come get some!" Izuku screamed as he leveled with the robot's head. With a scream of fear and anger he kicked the zero pointer hard engaging the BOOTED, a loud click echoed through the arena as many turned to watch before a massive explosion rippled through the robot's head sending it flying backwards as Izuku was launched away from the robot, his POGO mangled, his boots gone and his legs broken. "This is gonna HUUUUUURRRRT!" He screamed.
"Grab on!" Ochako called from atop a floating chunk of rubble as she grabbed his hand. A jolt of energy shot up their arms. "101?!"
"Oh crud buckets." Izuku gulped nervously as a loud crunch and dust cloud signalled the defeat of the 0 pointer. "Hi again 51."
"What the heck is going on?" Ochako growled as she slowly lowered them to the ground. "Urk. One second." She groaned before hunching behind the rock and vomiting up rainbows.
"AND THATS TIME!" Present Mic called as the final buzzer sounded. "OUR MEDICAL STAFF WILL BE DOWN SHORTLY TO ATTEND TO THE INJURED."
Izuku could only groan in defeat."I am so dead."
