1 week felt like an eternity, at least that was what Aki thought. School was as like usual. Training was intense, especially after Mei has finished upgrading the Loaded Umbrella, which she did wonderfully.
The Load Umbrella – Magnet (named by Mei) now has a tempered magnetic shaft that makes it nearly unbreakable. According to Mei, by spinning the open umbrella, user could deflect and block incoming enemy attacks while staying sheltered under it. It will also continue to block attacks as the user moves.
Aki tried this with Wolf. The Umbrella managed to block Wolf's attacks, but Aki quickly realized that it was hard to maintain posture after blocking attacks. On the bright side, the Umbrella managed to block incoming projectiles with ease, and it fit Aki's prosthetic arm perfectly.
Aki was very grateful that Mei managed to improve the Umbrella into a better version, even though Aki had to beg, even restraining Mei from turning the Umbrella into a spy weapon. He bought Mei her favorite chocolate as payment, which needless to say immensely boost her stamina to maximum, which also needless to say made Aki regretted it instantly the moment Mei pulled him inside her workshop to test out her babies.
Thankfully, UA was very punctual in delivering letters. It was 8 A.M when Aki saw a very carefully folded letter lying in front of his doorstep after he came back from his morning run.
With a speed that would put a certain blue hedgehog to shame, Aki grabbed the letter, closed the door, threw his shoes and ran to his room. This is it! Aki opened the letter.
To his surprise, the letter flashed into a hologram, revealing a very muscular, grey-hair man. He was wearing a red skin-tight suit, a cross scar was visible on his right cheek, along with 2 very sharp teeths.
"Is it on? Alright. I'm Kan Sekijirou, A.K.A The Blood Hero: Vlad King, also a first-year teacher of UA High. Let's get straight to business. Your written exam isn't in the top, but decent enough for you to join the General Education Course. While for your Practical Exam, you 40 Villain Points, which is quite high for an amateur. These scores are high enough to grant you into the Hero Course, BUT, there were a hidden part to the exam!"
Vlad screamed out, before pressing a remote which revealed a video of Aki, Ibara and Neito rescuing an unsconcious boy.
"You and 2 other students performed a selfless heroic act, risking your own safety to save someone. How can we call ourselves a prestige hero school without awarding you for hero act. That's why we decided to award you guys with Rescue Point!"
Kan said with a sastisfied grin, before showing a result board of top 10 students.
"You scored 72 points for you your practical exam in total, which landed you in the 4th place! Allow me to welcome you to class 1-B, Mochizuki-kun. This, is Your Hero Academia!"
With that, the hologram ended and turned into a few forms to confirm admission to UA. After signing the forms, Aki was told that his uniforms will arrive tomorrow along with his Student's ID.
After finishing all the required forms, Aki quietly sent them back to UA through the mails, before returning home and shouting at the top of his lungs.
"I FUCKING DID IT!"
Needless to say that he received a lot of complaints from his neighbors, but he didn't care. He was so happy that he couldn't care less about anything.
Spring came in a blink of an eye, same for school. Standing in front of UA High, Aki couldn't stop the cheerful grin on his smile, thinking about how this is his first step to achieve his dream.
He stepped inside!
.
.
.
.
.
And immediately fell down!
"FFFFFFUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKK!"
His mind echoed one word as he closed his eyes, preparing to introduce his face to UA's ground for the first time…..
It never came.
"Eh?"
Instead, whatever surface he landed on was….soft? It felt almost like a mattress, just a little harder.
"Are you okay? That fall looks like it hurts."
A soft, feminine voice caught Aki's attention as he tried to stand up. The owner of the voice has a pair of turquoise eyes with a concerning look on her face. However, her most noticeable futures were visibly her orange, side-ponytail hair and her enlarged hand that caught Aki a moment earlier.
"I-I'm fine. Thank you for catching me" Aki stuttered as he slight bowed to the girl in front of him.
"It's no big deal. The name is Kendou Itsuka." Itsuka said as she extended her hand out to Aki.
"Mochizuki Aki. Nice to meet y-you."
"Likewise. Hey, do you by any chance know where class 1-B is?"
"1-B? I'm heading there too!"
"Really!? Then I guess we're classmates! You wanna walk there together?"
"S-sure!"
Itsuka sweatdropped, looking at the boy who nodded his head so fast that she could see a remnant of his face.
"Dang the door is HUGE!" Cried out Aki as he stood in front of his classroom door with Itsuka giggling beside him.
"Must be for students with gigantification quirks. We ARE at UA after all!"
Not waiting for Aki to respond, Itsuka opened the door to the class and pushed Aki from behing into the classroom.
There were a lot of students already presented in the classroom. They were either sitting in their seats, using their phones, or conversing with one another. A few eyes turned to Itsuka and Aki as they walked into the class, most noticeably a silver-haired boy with a shit-eating grin on his face.
Aki took a quick glance around the huge classroom and classmates that he will be studying with for the year. They all looked interesting, everyone has something that felt….unique. As he continued to inspect his classmates, a familiar figure caught his attention before he questioned out loud,
"Shiozaki-san?"
Hearing her name, the vine-hair girl turned her attention from the conversation that she was in to Aki. She widened her eyes in surprise before smiling gently at the boy,
"Mochizuki-san! It's been a while!"
This seems to catch the attention of the whole class as every pair of eyes were on the quick greeting between Aki and Ibara. There was a moment of awkward silence before Itsuka voiced out everyone thoughts,
"You two know each other?"
"We met during the entrance exam. Mochizuki-san helped me and another boy to escape from the zero-pointer."
If their attention were caught earlier, now the whole class 1-B is interested.
"Help you to escape from the zero-pointer? How?" Someone voiced their curiosity.
"He turned the zero-pointer off."
Before Ibara could replied, another voice cut in. The whole class attention is now turned to a blonde-hair boy who just arrived at the door.
"Monoma-san! You're here too!" Aki smiled as he waved at Monoma.
Politely waving back to the black-hair boy, Neito continued,
"I was there. I saw him jumped down from the zero-pointer head after it stopped moving. It was…a sight to behold." Now this turned all attention towards Aki, who was already hiding behind Itsuka.
Before anyone could say anything, a silver-hair boy ran towards Aki with a…happy-murder face? He grabbed Aki's shoulders with his hands and shook him like a broken vending machine, all while asking,
"Man, that sounds so manly! How did you do it? Is it your Quirk? What is your Quirk anyway? Oh, the name is Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu – it's my full name by the way. What's your name?"
Before Aki could say anything, Itsuka quickly stood between him and Tetsutetsu,
"Knock it off! You're making him uncomfortable!"
Realising that he was getting into Aki's personal space, Tetsutetsu quickly backed off, however he continued with the questions,
"Sorry! But you've gotta tell me how you did it!"
Just as Itsuka was about to say something, a voice caught everyone attention.
"Settle down, you maggots! We don't have much time!"
At the door was Vlad King with a laptop on his hand and a very angry face that made all the students find a seat.
Tetsutetsu reluctantly returned to his seat, followed by Monoma and Itsuka. Monoma sat at the back of the class, 2 seats away from Tetsutetsu while Itsuka sat next to a curly green-hair girl.
"Are you going to stand here forever?"
Vlad grumpy voice snapped Aki out of his thought as he quickly sat down to the remaining seat, next to an ashen-hair girl.
"At least you maggots know how to follow instruction." Grinned Vlad King as he put his laptop down on the teacher's table before announcing again,
"As some of you already know, my name is Kan Sekijirou and my hero name is Vlad King. You all can me Kan-sensei or Vlad-sensei. I will be your homeroom teacher as well as your hero lessons instructor, so I will personally deal with you if I see troubles! Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes, sir" The class mumbled.
"WHAT WAS THAT?"
"YES, SIR!" Shouted out the class.
"Good." Kan nodded his head in satisfaction, "Now,, we got roughly…15 minutes before orientation! I want you all to introduce yourself to the class. Think of this as an ice-breaker."
A hand was raised up by a boy who was wearing headband. Kan gestured him to speak up,
"Sensei, what should we talk about?"
"Hmm, I was thinking of a quick introduction about your name and Quirk, but you can throw in a fact about yourself if you want to. Here I'll make an example!" Kan answered before crossing his arms and speaking out loud.
"My name is Kan Sekijirou and my Quirk is called Blood Control. It allows me to freely control my blood after it left my body as well as solidify it. I…have a pet dog as well,"
A few giggles were heard before Kan spoke up, "Now you all try it! Start from….you!"
The boy who was pointed at flinched before standing up and spoke out loud,
"My name is Awase Yosetsu and my Quirk is Welder. I can fuse organic and inorganic objects at an atomic level by touching them and I like mobile games! Hope we could be friend!"
Seems to pick up the cue, the boy behind him continued,
"Name is Kaibara Sen. My Quirk is Gyrate. It allows my to rotate any part of my body like a drill. I like cameras."
"Kamakiri Togaru. Quirk is Razor Sharp." The mantis boy said as he produced blade on his arms as an explanation, "Get in my way and Imma slice yall up."
"Kuroiro Shihai. My Quirk is called Black. It allows me to merge myself with anything that is dark in color and I enjoy…taboos things." That sent a shiver down the class.
"Hey guys, my name is Kedou Itsuka. My quirk is Big Fist. I can enlarge both my hands to a gigantic size, my power also increases with the size of my hands. I like coffee and motorcycles. Hope we could be friendly towards one another!"
"Yui Kodai. Size" a raven-hair girl behind Itsuka stood up, shrinking down her pencil before enlarging it back again and sat down.
"…..That's it?!" A same voice echoed through class 1-B
"My-my name is Komori Kinoko. My Quirk is Mushroom. I-I can spread various type of fungus from my body, b-but it only lasted around 2-3 hours or s-so."
"Hey! The name is Tokage Setsuna. My Quirk is Lizard Tail Splitter. I could detach parts of my body and control them at will." Setsuna said as she detatched her arms and shook it with Itsuka and Kinoko. "I like dinosaurs!"
"Good morning. My name is Shiozaki Ibara, and my Quirk is Vines." Ibara clasped her hands together, controlling her vines to wrap around her table, "I can control them at will. Bread is my favorite food. I hope we all cound strive together to become heroes."
"My name is Shishida Jurota. My Quirk is called Beast and as the name suggested, I could turn my self into a beast-man that greatly enhance my strength and speed but I became more.. wild however, when I transformed."
"Shoda Nirengeki. My Quirk is called Twin Impact. It allows to create a second impact that is several times stronger."
"Tsunotori Pony. Me…American, not good w-with Japanese. Horn Cannon…. is Quirk, can shoot horns. Please be nice to me!" She shouted the last part out in English which only a few students could understand.
"Tsuburaba Kosei. My Quirk is Solid Air. I can solidify any air that I breathe out to create a wall or platform. I like ball games!"
"My name is Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, as yall already heard and again, it's my real full name so no question. My Quirk is Metal as I can turn my body into metal. I like fighting games and manly battles. Hope I can fight you all fair and square!"
"My name is Fukidashi Manga. My Quirk is called Comic. It allows me to materialize words in midair by speaking them but my throat can get really sore if I use it a lot. I enjoy drawing a lot."
"Honenuki Juzo. My Quirk, Softening, allow me to soften any non-living thing I touch. I guess I enjoy massages."
It's already Aki's turn and he felt really uncomfortable. All eyes trained on him, especially Monoma and Tetsutetsu. Aki literally froze in his seat until Kan called him out.
"We don't have all day, Mochizuki-kun."
"Y-yes sir-r! M-my name is Mochizuki Aki and my Quirk is, well I called it Resurrection."
This caused an uproar. Disbelieving, curious and shock looks were thrown at Aki' direction. Mumblings were heard throughtout the class until Kan has to growl at them before directing his understanding, yet curious eyes at Aki,
"Mind explaining it to your clasmates?"
"W-well, there aren't much to tell but as far as I know, I could recover from any fatal injuries that were done to me and I think I could use it once a day. I don't know if I could resurrect again after doing it once since you know,.. I haven't tried it yet."
Shishida raised his hand before speaking up, "Excuse me for my rudeness, Mochizuki-sama, but could you describe for us how it works?"
"Well, i-it's kinda hard to explain by words, so.. maybe I could show you! Just open the window a-"
"NO!" "ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Class 1-B and Vlad-sensei screamed all together before Vlad instructed everyone who sat by the window to lock it tightly which they happily followed.
"Someone please, continue with the introduction…" Kan tiredly said as he rubbed his eyes.
"I go by the name of Yanagi Reiko. My Quirk is called Poltergeist. It gives me the ability to telekinetically manipulate nearby objects. However, I am limited by the weight of an average human being. I prefer using my free time on the Internet seeking out spooky tales."
"Monoma Neito. My Quirk is Copy. I can copy Quirks for 5 minutes by touching its owner for 5 minutes. I enjoy French Cuisine."
"My name is Rin Hiryu. My Quirk is called Scales as it allows me to sprout strong, durable reptilian scales from hmy skin that can be used as armor and weapon. I moved to Japan from China since elementary school so I could speak Japanese fluently and I like sushi."
Just as Rin finished his introduction, the bell alarmed Vlad that it was time to take his class to orientation.
"Perfect timing. Everyone, be at the school hall in 10 minutes. Don't be late, or else." He said the last sentence threateningly, and it worked!
Author's Note: God, I think this is my longest chapter yet! Anyway, I hope this chapter solves the mystery of what Aki's Quirk is. Initially, I wanted to leave it a surprise, but meh.
Hope you enjoy the chapter! I'm sorry if there's any grammar errors but I'm… too lazy and tired to check. Sorry!
