"Oh, three more. One after the other." Mera reported. "Our totals at eighty-two, meaning that there is only twenty-two more to pass."
Luna, Selene, Aisha, and Diana have finally arrived towards the anteroom. Diana caught the sight of Kaminari, Kirishima, and Katsuki along with Izuku, Sero, and Uraraka.
"Oh, hey. Some of our classmates passed the exam just like us." Diana said with a smile.
"Aw, yeah, Class A represent!" Kaminari shouted as he ran up to Izuku, Sero, and Uraraka.
"Oh, you know it!" Uraraka cheered. "Our class is awesome! We did it!"
Luna, Selene, Aisha, and Diana watched with smiles as Kaminari, Kirishima, Sero, and Uraraka began dancing together while chanting "Class 1-A" victoriously.
"Their victory dance is so hilarious." Diana laughed.
"You can say that again." Aisha agreed with a laugh.
"Luna."
Luna's eyes turned towards Katsuki, who started walking towards her.
"I'll see you girls inside." Luna said to her friends.
"Ok." Selene said.
Selene, Aisha, and Diana walked into the anteroom just as Katsuki stood in front of Luna.
"Congrats for passing the exam, Bakugo." Luna smiled.
"Yeah, you too." Katsuki said. He leaned close to Luna's ear. "Then again, not even All Might's daughter couldn't fail this exam."
Luna gasped sharply. Her eyes stared into Katsuki's eyes in complete disbelief.
W-Wait. Did…did he say what I think he say?! Luna exclaimed in utter shock.
"Speechless,?" Katsuki said. "Judging by your Quirk, you seem to carry more of your mom than your dad."
Luna stood in a complete mix of shock and disbelief. How did Katsuki managed to figure out the familial connection between her and her parents? She never recalled telling him about the secrets of her Quirk nor about her heroic parents.
"Bakugo, I…" Luna spoke.
But Katsuki walked past Luna and headed his way to the anteroom.
All Luna can do is stare at him silently with an anxious face.
A few minutes later, Luna met up with her friends inside the anteroom.
"Hey, girls. What did I miss?" Luna asked.
"Not much." Aisha replied. "The good news is that fourteen of our classmates have passed."
"The bad news is that there's only nine more to go." Diana said.
"And the announcer said that there's only eighteen spots left." Selene added.
"Wow, eight people just passed at the same time." Mera said through the speakers. "That leaves only ten open spots."
Luna, Aisha, Diana, and Selene turned their heads to see eight Ketsubutsu students walking inside the anteroom.
"Oh, this is not good." Diana said with a worried expression.
"That means there are still nine people in our class who haven't passed yet." Selene said.
Luna, Aisha, Diana, and Selene looked towards the large screen on the wall that showcased the student examinees doing everything they can to ace the exam with their Quirks.
Come on, Class A. I have faith in you. Luna thought with a clenched fist.
"That's two more in. Eight spots left." Ness announced. "Seven spaces remain! Six left! Make that five! The pressure's on now! In the final minutes, UA came together and pulled off some absolutely insane combos!"
Luna, Aisha, Diana, and Selene's eyes widened wide for their classmates' Quirk determination.
"Four spots! Now three!" Mera continued. "Ooh! That's one is from Shiketsu High! So only two spots remain."
Then, the alarm boomed throughout the arena.
"The last students passed! Every spot is now filled! One hundred students will advance!" Mera concluded. "The end is finally here! Wah-hoo!"
All Class 1-A students started cheering and rejoicing each other with pure enthusiasm.
"Thank goodness." Selene said with a relief.
"We really did it, you guys." Luna smiled.
"Hell yeah." Diana and Aisha grinned as they high-fived each other.
"Unfortunately, those of you who failed will now have to withdraw from the licensing exam." Mera said. "Please leave the test area immediately."
After the first phase of the exam was over, Izuku and Luna gave each other thumbs-up. Diana hugged Kirishima, who blushed shyly. Shoto and Aisha exchanged satisfied smiles. And Selene high-fived Jiro, Yaoyorozu, and Hagakure.
"Oh, right. For the 100 of you that passed the first test, please turn your attention to the screen." Ness said.
Everyone directed their attention to the large screen that showed the city building region.
"Is that the test arena?" Luna asked.
"Why are they showing us that?" Aisha wondered.
Suddenly, several city buildings got demolished in massive explosions. The industrial site and the large mountains also got destroyed by the massive explosions. Afterwards, the entire arena was converted into a disaster zone in an instant.
Only Jiro, Yaoyorozu, Kaminari, Kirishima, and Mineta looked completely shaken.
"Hold on." Luna said.
"Wait. Does this mean…?" Izuku said.
"There's only one more round for the exam." Mera explained. "Your goal is simple: undertake rescue exercises and save the bystanders who are trapped in these disaster sites."
"A rescue mission." Izuku and Luna said.
Enjoy and review.
