Holy Jesus, it's finally time. Izuku is actually hyped as hell. He got a whole gallon of blood last night. He's not gonna ask where Toga got it or why it was fresh as that wasn't his business. God, he was excited. He was in the Midoriya van banging his head to his music and slapping his hands on the wheel. He was tearing down the road on his way to Bakugou's house. That certainly dulled his excitement. Still hyped though. He parked outside and shot a text to Mitsuki telling her to send out her brat.
"Hey big man." calls Izuku to Bakugou, while he waves to Mitsuki.
"You're not gonna pass." says Bakugou as he gets in the van.
"Not a neck in sight and you still go for the jugular? Calm down man." says Izuku.
"Just warning you ahead of time." says Bakugou.
"Boohoo dude. I'll be fine. If I fail I'll just kill myself." says Izuku nonchalantly, now he didn't really want to do that but he needed to see how Bakugou would respond to that.
Apparently he wasn't gonna get a response at all. This ass jack gets in his van, insults him and doesn't even have the common courtesy to respond to him.
"Don't." says Bakugou.
Well it wasn't much. It was really stiff too. But it was something.
"I'm just playing. I'd just go apply to Shiketsu." says Izuku.
"You think they'd take you?" asks Bakugou?
"You think they'd take you?" asks Izuku.
"Duh Dumb ass." says Bakugou.
Izuku smiles at him, "Ya know you could lick my balls. Not implying anything. Just an idea."
"Fuck you." says Bakugou.
"Hey, we got two more stops before U.A." says Izuku, "We got some people to pick up."
"Fine whatever." says Bakugou.
They fall into an uncomfortable silence after that. Izuku ignores it and sings along with his playlist and Bakugou just looks out the window. They pull up to Hatsume's lab and Izuku shoots her a text.
While they wait for Hatsume to come out Bakugou leans down and picks up a glass bottle of Stella Artois.
"The hell is this?" asks Bakugou.
"It's booze. It's Belgian." says Izuku.
"I should tell your Inko you've got this." says Bakugou.
"For sure. Lemme just tell Auntie you told me to kill myself." says Izuku.
Bakugou glares at him.
"Square up bitch." says Izuku before Bakugou can say anything.
"I'd run your shit pussy." says Bakugou.
"Wouldja?" asks Izuku he's actually really mad, "Wouldja?"
"Yeah, I-" starts Bakugou.
"You know I really thought about it. I did. I didn't do it but I wanted to." says Izuku, "If I didn't meet the right people, damn I probably woulda. I don't know why I even agreed to this. I can't fucking stand you. God Damn, I can't."
Bakugou starts to say something.
"SHUT!" starts Izuku before sighing and pinching the bridge of his nose, "Let's just not talk."
Izuku takes his silence as an agreement.
Hatsume opens the door to the backseat of the van and slides in.
"Big green. How ya bin?" asks Hatsume.
"Hatsubae!" says Izuku excitedly like nothing just happened, "I've been great. How boutchu?"
"Buildin' an shit. You know." says Hatsume.
"This is my old buddy and honorary cousin, Bakugou Katsuki." says Izuku.
"Nice to meetcha B-man." says Hatsume.
He just nods in response.
"Alright gravy train leaving the station. We have one more stop to make before heading to U.A." says Izuku.
"Where we headed?" asks Hatsume.
"We've got another test taker to pick up." says Izuku.
"Bitchin'" says Hatsume.
"You build any cool shit lately?" asks Izuku.
"Made a bomb. The ministry of defense had to confiscate that one." says Hatsume.
"Damn." says Izuku.
A couple minutes later they're outside a fairly nice apartment building. Izuku shoots a text to Shinsou telling him to come out. Like a minute later Shinsou is getting in the car.
"Hey man." says Izuku.
"Hey." says Shinsou, this guy didn't come off as very social. Sucks for him.
"How you doin' boss?" asks Izuku.
"Okay, you?" asks Shinsou.
"Doing great." says Izuku, "Hey I gotta ask. You've got three parents right? How is that? Cause I've only got one. Although I do have a couple daddies if you know what I mean."
Izuku laughs at his joke and nudges Bakugou with his elbow. To his surprise and maybe delight Bakugou laughs. Holy shit Bakugou never laughs.
"It's pretty nice. Aizawa's technically my Dad, but the rest of them do what they can." says Shinsou.
"Cool cool." says Izuku, "So are they all… about it?"
"What?" asks Shinsou.
"Are they into polygimy or what's going on there?" asks Izuku.
"That's not their style." says Shinsou.
"So Nemuri's single?" asks Izuku.
He can see Shinsou glaring at him from his rearview mirror. That joke was clearly a step in the wrong direction.
"I'm kidding by the way. I already have a girl. She's a hell of a girl too." says Izuku causing a comfortable lull in the conversation until they make it to U.A.
Izuku parks his van and they all hop out.
"See you." says Mei as she jogs off to wherever she takes her test.
"See you, meet back here if you need a ride home." says Izuku.
"She's not with us?" asks Shinsou.
"No she's going for the support course." says Izuku.
"Well okay. See you back here." says Shinsou.
"Don't wanna walk with us?" asks Izuku.
"Sorry, no." says Shinsou, he was pretty nice about it.
"Guess, it's just you and me." says Izuku.
"Whatever. I'm going." says Bakugou.
"Hey uhh." says Izuku, "uuhhh."
"Just say it." says Bakugou.
"I really fucking hate you dawg." says Izuku, "But the thing I hate about you the most, is that I still care. So uh, good luck."
"Don't need it." says Bakugou, "You do though."
Was that his way of wishing Izuku good luck? Was that an insult? Izuku's gonna take it like a compliment.
Izuku makes his way to the gate. He's really here. He's finally gonna take the test. He trips. He's gonna die holy fucking shit. He's gonna die in front of all these people. Oh my god!
He's floating… why is he floating? Weee?
"Hey are you alright?" asks some cute brunette, wow a really cute brunette but Izuku isn't allowed to have that feeling so he crushes it, squish.
"I'm fine, how're you?" asks Izuku as he starts spinning in the air.
"I'm okay. I'm gonna put you down now." says Brunette.
"Haha. Just like Old Yeller." says Izuku.
"What?" asks Brunette.
"It's nothing." says Izuku before righting himself and falling to the ground.
"Are you sure, you're okay?" asks Brunette.
"Oh absolutely. I'm fine." says Izuku.
"Well alright then, good luck." says Brunette.
"Good luck." says Izuku.
Izuku makes his way in and takes the written portion of the test. He kinda breezed through it. He always was pretty smart. It was the next part that had him worried. He could fight quirkless, sure, but the thingy said he'd be fighting robots. It was a good thing he brought that sledge hammer. He could use the axe but he didn't really want to.
He'd use it if he had to. For now though, he had to head into this big auditorium. Lucky him his seat is right next to Bakugou's.
"Funny seeing you here." says Izuku.
Bakugou mumbled something like, "Oh my fucking god."
He's probably real tired of Izuku's shit. Well that's too damn bad.
"Oh hey it's present Mic. He's pretty cool." says Izuku.
"Shut up." says Bakugou.
"He's tough too. He could probably kick your ass." says Izuku.
"I'll kill you." says Bakugou.
"Couldn't kick my ass though, I'm too tough." says Izuku.
He hears Mic shout something along the lines of "Everybody say HEY."
Izuku decides to now would be a good time to chime in, "HELL YEAH, LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOO."
Wow, literally nobody joined him. Like he was really the only one. In fact a lot of people looked kinda pissed. Especially that dude with the glasses. Actually that guy looked pretty familiar. Izuku couldn't figure it out though.
"That's not at all what I asked for but I appreciate the enthusiasm." says Mic.
Izuku shoots him. Shoots him a thumbs up that is.
Izuku leans over to Bakugou. Bakugou visibly scowls at this. Whatever Izuku wants to say, Bakugou doesn't want to hear it.
"He took that really well." says Izuku, "Like can you imagine the reactions that'd get if someone else was giving a presentation."
"And You." comes the glasses dude, who is now pointing right at him.
Izuku turns his thumb against his chest, pointing to himself.
'Me', he mouths.
"Yes you. You've been talking this whole time. You've even disrupted the speaker. If you're not gonna take this seriously then you should just leave." says Glasses.
Jeez, this guy's pretty intense. Oh shit.
"Hehe. You look like my buddy Tensei." says Izuku.
He looks visibly taken back, "You know my brother?"
"You're initial T's little brother?!" asks Izuku, "Wow, good for you honestly. Hey when you see him tell him I said hi."
"Oh, Okay." says Glasses.
Wow that distracted him from the topic completely. Izuku did a pretty good job with that. He tunes out the rest of the presentation. Apparently not all test takers were testing at the same place. Which was good. There wasn't enough room for him and Bakugou in the same test sight.
Izuku a bunch of other kids loaded up onto a bus. He probably looked kinda scary with the lead pipe and sledge hammer chained to his body.
Everybody got off the bus and started standing around. Izuku saw the nice brunette from earlier. He never got her name. At least he doesn't think he did. He'll go talk to her. He would if there weren't a large hand on his shoulder. Did he get grabbed by a gorilla? Oh it was just glasses.
"Oh hey man." says Izuku.
"Are you here to distract people and make them fail?" asks glasses.
What a baseless accusation, actually Izuku kinda sees where he's coming from. Actually he's got an idea.
"Yeah actually." he whispers, "I work for U.A. Good job finding me out just don't let anybody else know. Okay?"
"Oh." says Glasses… What was Tensei's last name?
"Promise." says Izuku.
"Of course. I didn't realize you were hired or I wouldn't have said anything." says Initial Jr.
"It's cool. You're looking out for your fellow test taker, more power to you." says Izuku.
"START." comes Mic's voice.
Izuku and Glasses didn't hesitate. They both took off into the opening gate.
The test wasn't going too bad all things considered. He was actually having a really good time. Like a really good time. People were starting to give him weird looks when he screamed about how fun this was, or how his blood was pumping. They really should pay more attention they probably won't pass. He probably won't pass either though. He only has twenty points. Which wasn't terrible all things considered.
Was that an earthquake? No, it was the biggest Robot Izuku's ever seen. What did Hatsume do this time? Well as good a time as it would be he's not fighting that it's huge.
"Help me." comes the Brunettes' voice.
Okay, caution to the wind let's fucking do this. He bum rushes the robot, digs the cutie out and tosses her out of the way. He could've been a little gentler but it's massive fucking hand was coming down on them. The hand hit where Izuku was standing. When the hand raised a plate was missing and it's wires could be seen. A couple seconds later Izuku pops out of its shoulder. Izuku takes his axe back out and starts chopping at its neck like it's a tree.
"TIMBER." shouts Izuku as it's robo head plumments.
Izuku could go for some robo head right about now. Hehe.
"LOOK AT ME I TOOK DOWN THE BIG FU-" starts Izuku before the robot explodes, sending him higher into the air than he was earlier.
Well he's falling. To his death. He can either out himself as not quirkless or die. He's gonna die. Wait no he's not. He wraps the chain around the axe handle and throws at it a roof. It hooks the roof. The line goes tight. The axe slips, he's still falling, god damnit.
He feels roughly three and a half tons of force slap him clean across the face the second before he hits the ground. It's his first meeting with All Might all over again. Except instead of the worlds strongest hero it was some 14 maybe fifteen year old brunette.
Izuku's floating again. Oh it's the brunette.
"Oh my god are you okay?" she asks.
He forgot to mention this but that explosion kinda messed him up. He thinks he has a concussion. No scratch that, she's too blurry he totally has one. His shirt's kinda shredded. He's bleeding from a couple places here and there. And there. And there. Actually he's in really bad shape wow. He did not expect this today.
"Oh it happens." says Izuku.
"It does?" asks Brunette.
Wow she's funny too.
"Sometimes." says Izuku.
"I'm gonna put you down now." says Brunette before doing exactly what she said and more as she promptly vomits.
"Just like old yeller." says Izuku.
At this point recovery girl comes by.
"What happened to you?" she asks.
"Fought the big guy." says Izuku, "Hey I think her ankles broken."
She kisses Brunette and her bones realign.
She turns to Izuku who is limping away as he doesn't know if recovery girls powers work on him and doesn't think this would be the time or place to find out.
"Where do you think you're going?" asks Chiyo.
"Probably wendy's." says Izuku.
"You don't think there's anything more important?" asks Chiyo.
"Well I've got a buddy with a healing quirk who doesn't take time off your lifespan." says Izuku.
"Are you concussed?" asks Chiyo.
Absolutely.
"No mam." says Izuku.
"I'm not allowed to forcibly heal you unless your a student so you're technically free to go but your also really dumb." says Chiyo.
"Fair. Thank you." says Izuku before leaving.
He still never got that brunette's name. It's fine.
A little while later and Izuku was driving everybody home. But true to his word, he did take them to Wendy's his treat. Also he picked some up for the family as he did not want to cook right now. The cashier at the window seemed surprised to see him and even more surprised to see the state he was in. Not long after he dropped everybody off and headed home he deserved a break. Not just from the exam but knowing people are taking pictures of you kinda drains your social battery. He could finally sit back and relax. Giran kicks his front door open.
"Kid the syndicate bosses are meeting up. We've got a genuine chance to cripple or crush them. We've got a lotta work to do and a couple of days to do it. Get up let's get going." says Giran.
Guess not.
Authors Note
Man this took a while to write. It was a little longer than the average chapter so I hope you enjoy it. It also felt like a lot funnier than most of my stuff. I was on fire with this. We're kinda leading into something really big with the next chapter or two. I'm really hyped to get to this. I've had it planned for a while.
I had a good time writing Bakugou. Bakugou was a little softer this chapter but being told what he was told would bring anybody down a level or two. It was fun to write Izuku trying to decipher what Bakugou meant by some of the things he said. I also had a hell of a time writing Izuku and Mei, Izuku and Shinsou, Izuku and Iida, Izuku and Uraraka, Izuku and everyone. Honestly just had a blast working on this.

Dank brugh 100: I think I did a pretty good job with this. Had a lot of fun doing it too. I hope you enjoy it.
Kahjj: It was a fun chapter to write. Izuku and Eri are always fun. I feel like I should write them more but Izuku keeps himself busy a lot of the time and Eri strikes me as the type of person who has a short social battery. It works out well that way though I think, it makes the time they spend together a little more special.
Blue hell fire 666: Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. I hope you enjoy this one as well. I've been excited to write Izuku with 1-A students for a while. It felt pretty solid and well done on my end. Not perfect but still pretty good, you know. I feel like he could handle his classmates pretty well. He'd probably have his problems with some of them. But for the most part they'd get along well. Have a good day, it's been a pleasure responding to you.
