Chapter Three: Practical

~A/N~ Here we go. Chapter Three and the practical.

Chapter Start!

~Practical Exam Site: Gamma~

Izumi looked around trying to find someone. Her eyes landed on a woman with a U.A. badge on. She quickly approached gaining the woman's attention. "Can I help you?" the woman quickly asked.

"Yeah I have a transformation quirk but no clothes that shift with me. I was wondering if I can leave this with you," Izumi showed a small duffel bag.

"Of course, See that yellow tent over there," the woman pointed. Izumi looked and nodded. "Once the exam is over I'll have your bag there for you,"

"Thank you," Izumi smiled and bowed leaving her bag and returning to the waiting spot. She hadn't even come to a stop when the huge doors opened. Something in Izumi told her to go. So she did.

She broke the front lines running full board into the city. As she passed the gates she called on her power. In an instant, her body shifted. Her lightly tanned skin turned black and scaled. Her body grew and wings burst from her back. Her hands and feet changed to wicked claws. A long powerful tail grew from her lower back. Her face morphed features elongating as her draconic maw came to the surface.

"Well someone has the right idea!" Present Mic's voice echoed. "WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!? THERE ARE NO 'STARTS' IN REAL LIFE! GO! GO! GO!" Izumi now fully shifted into her dragon form let out a massive roar and started tearing robots to pieces.

~Observation Room~

"Holy-" Snipe started

"Shit," Midnight finished. All eyes were on Izumi. She had acted faster than any other examinee had. By the time the doors had finished opening she was already racking up points.

"If I remember hearing right even Endeavor waited until he got a 'Go' to run in. She's got good instincts," Cementoss said as others finally started gaining points.

"Hey look there," Vlad King said pointing to an ashy blonde. "Someone is giving her some competition,"

"I'm pretty sure nobody could catch her at this point," Power Loader said seeing her points already well into the thirties and still rising fast.

"How many points did Ryukyu get in her exam?" Ectoplasm asked.

"Close to a hundred," Nezu replied quickly. "Dragon quirks are truly powerful,"

~With Izumi~

Izumi hadn't felt so free in years. She rarely got to be in her Dragon form. Getting to stretch her wings felt wonderful. "DUCK!" Her draconic voice boomed causing a brunette to duck making a robot miss its attack.

"Thanks," the girl replied before tripping the bot and slapping it. The bot floated up then dropped and smashed to pieces.

'She turned off the bot's gravity! that's so cool!' Izumi thought as she tore another three bots to shreds and moved on.

~Sometime Later~

Izumi came to rest atop one of the many buildings in the faux city. She was starting to have trouble finding any more bots. The test had been going on for just a little under a half-hour at this point. She was sure they were nearly done. Her eyes scanned the rooftops trying to see if there were any hidden points to be had.

'Should've guessed they wouldn't have anything up here,' Izumi thought. She couldn't hold back a yawn as she finally started to let her body relax. She'd been going full throttle since the start and it had taken its toll. She needed a nap.

~Observation Room~

"Did she actually just yawn?" Vlad asked seeing the screen with Izumi on it. "Is she not taking this seriously.

"It's probably more exhaustion than boredom," Midnight countered.

"I agree," Cementoss stated. "She's likely not spent this much time in her dragon form. It must be draining,"

"We are just about at that time," Nezu said with a smirk. "Who would like to wake up the big boys this year?"

"Oh, dibs!" Midnight smiled sitting up more so she could reach the activation button.

"Let the final test begin," Nezu's smile grew.

~Gamma Site~

The examinees all stopped feeling the ground starting to shake. Something big was on the way. Then a building collapsed and it came into view. A truly gargantuan robot.

"Fuck that!" a voice cried out causing everyone else to run. So filled with fear almost nobody heard the cry for help.

"Help!" Ochaco called out her body pinned down. She was too exhausted to use her quirk. Not that she could use it at the moment. One hand was stuck under her body while the other was pinned by debris stopping her from twisting her wrist. She could feel the ground shake more as the robot closed in.

"Help her! I'll handle the bot!" A deep voice called out.

"On it!" another voice answered.

'Someone heard me,' Ochaco wanted to cry. Maybe she wouldn't be dying today.

'Crap crap crap crap crap crap crap crap crap crap,' Hitoshi sang in his head as he ran past falling concrete and glass.

"I'm here!" Hitoshi said as he reached the downed girl. He made quick work of the concrete pinning her arm down.

"Thank you," Ochaco said.

"Look out!" The deep voice called out. Hitoshi ducked putting himself over the girl as something smashed into the ground next to them.

"Shit are you good?" Hitoshi asked seeing a very battered dragon push itself up.

"Not really," Izumi replied planting her feet. Her chest started to expand as she drew in a deep breath. "Stay down,"

"What are you doing?" Ochaco asked as Hitoshi covered her again.

"MOLTEN INFERNO!" Izumi screamed as what looked like pure lava erupted from her maw.

~Ground Alpha~

The ground shook. Buildings started to collapse. Everyone was running away from the massive zero pointer. Everyone save for one ashy blonde. No, he was smiling like a killer as he ran full board at the gargantuan bot.

"Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine!" Katsuki chanted crazily as he ran. As he neared the bot he let loose several explosions launching himself up towards its face.

"Enemy Detected!" the bot spoke.

"DETECT THIS!" Katsuki threw his hands forward and put all his effort forth. "HOWITZER IMPACT!" The explosion rocked the city nearly as hard as the Zero pointer had. Katsuki smiled as he fell back towards the ground using a few weak explosions to stop his fall.

The smoke cleared and the massive robot remained motionless its head completely gone.

"FUCK YEAH! THAT'S HOW YOU WIN!" Katsuki shouted before he fell backward passing out from exhaustion.

~Observation Room~

"Well color me impressed more than one ran back," Shota said seeing Izumi and Hitoshi rocketing towards the Zero Pointer.

"The explosive boy did too," Power Loader said. All the screens split showing the two testing grounds where examinees ran back. The first showed the explosive blonde smiling crazily as he ran forward while the second showed the dragon clawing at the Zero pointer.

"She tunneled," Snipe said right as she was slapped out of the sky not having seen the robot's hand coming.

"She almost hit the other two," Vlad said gruffly.

"What's the boy planning?" Cementoss pondered as he watched Katsuki start flying up.

"Well this will line up well," Nezu said seeing Izumi breathing in while Katsuki reached the apex of his climb.

"HOWITZER IMPACT!"

"MOLTEN INFERNO!" the two teens screamed out in unknown unity.

"Holy heatwave," Midnight said chuckling.

"Indeed both seem to have quite the firepower," All Might added.

~Gamma Site~

Izumi dropped to her side panting heavily as she heard Present Mic call out the completion of the exam. Her body started to shrink back down to her normal form.

"That was am- Oh you're naked," Hitoshi said quickly turning away.

"Yeah sorry. I down own shifting clothes," Izumi said sitting up.

"Here," Hitoshi said handing her his jacket. "It should be enough to cover everything,"

"Thanks," Izumi smiled taking the offered jacket.

"My my, Are you three ok?" a sweet voice spoke.

"Just tired," Izumi replied seeing Recovery Girl walk up.

"I'm fine, She's hurt," Hitoshi said pointing to Ochaco who waved her uninjured arm.

"I don't think anything broke thankfully," Ochaco said while Recovery Girl started checking her over.

"You're extremely lucky," Recovery Girl said placing a kiss on Ochaco's cheek healing the girl. "You'll just take a nap for a bit," almost on cue Ochaco slumped already snoozing.

~Outside U.A.~

Hitoshi leaned against a wall his mind wandering. Well, wandering wasn't quite the right word. It was solely focused on a single thing or in this case a single person. The dragon girl. She was a black dragon.

"Hey," Hitoshi was brought back to reality. His jaw nearly hit the ground when he saw who it was. "Thanks for letting me borrow this," It was the dragon girl but she wasn't alone. She had a young child in her arms.

"Uh, yeah thanks," Hitoshi said taking his jacket back.

"Momma!" the boy smiled brightly. "You made a new friend!" the boy continued.

"Well I don't-" Izumi started.

"Is he going to be your new special bedroom friend?" the boy said.

"Dai... Daiki!" Izumi's face paled.

"Um... what?" Hitoshi asked.
