Chapter 11.
Entrance Exam.
Four months had passed, and tomorrow was the entrance exam from the UA and Yamikumo was helping Kinoko with her training. Both were having a friendly spar.
Kinoko charged at Yamikumo and started throwing punches and kicks, Yamikumo dodged all her attacks easily, even so she managed to surprise him and punch him in the face. Upon receiving the blow, Yamikumo smirked and proceeded to counterattack with his own attacks, of course he was holding back a bit, even so Kinoko managed to push him enough.
An hour later Yamikumo decided to end the training.
- "That's enough for today" –
- "It was sooner than other days."-
- "Yes. But remember that tomorrow is the UA's entrance exam, you have to be well rested and prepared"-
- "True. Well, if that was all for today, I better get ready for tomorrow. I'm so excited." –
- "I'm sure you are."-
- "Aren't you gonna wish me luck?"-
- "Why? You don't need it. With you level I'm sure you will easily pass. But if you want, then good luck"-
- "Thank you. Now I'll be going"-
After this she got close to Yamikumo and stared at him for a few seconds she gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
- "That's for all the help. Well goodbye!" – She said before running away with a giant blush in her face.
Yamikumo just stared at where Kinoko was, then a sly smile appeared in his face.
- "I'm so lucky. Well, I have to go as well, I also have to prepare for the exam. I feel a little bad for not telling her that I will take the exam as well, but I want to surprise her for when we both pass the exam."- He then leave as well.

…
A day later.
UA's front gate.
Yamikumo arrived at UA's front gate, he was prepared and was completely confident about his opportunities, even with the written part, he loves to learn new stuff and in his free time he always read different books about different topics.
He looked around and saw all the applicants, some of them looked like they were here only to have fun, others seemed like they were taking this seriously, but then something caught his attention, it was a girl, she was standing there not moving, she looked nervous. Then Yamikumo decided to give her a little help.
When he reached her, he then noticed her looks, the girl in question had messy green hair, her face was quite plain, her eyes are large and somewhat circular, their irises the same green color as her hair and has a set of four symmetrical freckles in diamond formations, one on each cheek, she kind of reminded to himself. She was dressed in a school uniform.
Izumi POV.
Izumi Midoriya was staring at the UA's front gate, she was really nervous but at the same time excited, if someone told her a few years ago that she was going to attend at UA she would not have believed it, since she was diagnosed quirkless her life was turned into a hell, she wanted to become a hero but no one believed in her and she was started to get bullied at the school, but that changed 10 months ago, when she met All Might and he chose her to become his successor.
For 10 months she trained to become a good vessel for the One for All, she trained so hard and finally All Might passed One for All into her a few hours ago so she didn't have time to try it.
- "I can't believe I'm here, at UA, where some of the top hero graduated, Best Jeanist the eight times Beast Jeanist award winner, Endeavor the hero with the record of most solved cases and, of course, All Might the number one hero of Japan! For great heroes, graduation from UA high school is certainly a requirement" – At this moment she was daydreaming but then she was taken out of her thoughts by some sound of fingers snapping.
When she returned at the real world, she saw a guy snapping his fingers at her. The guy in question was taller than her, had dark green hair and his left eye was the same color of his hair, he had a mature and serious face. But then she saw his right eye, it was blood red, and the most striking feature were his scars, he had three on his right eye and one in his right cheek. He was dressed in some black and dark green casual clothes, even so in her mind the guy was extremely handsome, she blushed furiously.
- "Are you okay?" – Asked the guy.
- "I…I…" – She tried to say something, but she was very nervous, this was the first time a guy talked to her without bullying her.
- "Look, I understand that you are nervous, everyone is, but you better enter, the exam will start with or without you." –
- "Y-Yes… T-Thank you" –
The guy turned around and started entering the building, but not without waving at her and speak. - "Don't thank me yet, thank me when we both pass the exam."- Then he disappeared after entering the building.
- "A guy spoke to me! And he didn't bully me! But he is right I better go inside. This is my first step to become a hero." – She said with confidence… only to trip with herself, but before hitting the floor she stopped.
- "Are you okay?" – A voice said.
She turned at the voice to see a brown-haired girl, she is fair skinned with a perpetual blush on her cheeks. Her eyes are large and round, their irises a warm auburn brown, with rather thick upper eyelashes, two longer and more prominent ones protruding outwards on either side and fewer but more individually pronounced lower eyelashes. She was the same height as her. Her hair is bobbed and curved inwards at the ends, two longer clumps taking the same shape on either side of her face, and short bangs that reach roughly a quarter of the way down her forehead.
- "Sorry for using my quirk without your permission, but it would have been bad luck if you fell, right?" – The girl said with a smile in her face. – "You are also nervous, right?" –
- "Uh?"-
- "Let's do our best" – The nice girl said, then entered the building.
- "… I talked with a girl!"- She blushed again.
After this Izumi also entered the building.
…
…
…
Yamikumo POV
Yamikumo entered the building where the exam would take place, but before he could enter the room he was stopped by a person.
- "Wait. You can't bring any weapons in here unless you have a permission"- He said pointing at Yamikumo's katana which was strapped in his back.
- "Right, I forgot, here"- Yamikumo said handing him the permission that the principal gave him.
- "I see, looks legit, you can enter, sorry for the problems caused"-
- "Thank you."-
After entering the room Yamikumo looked at everyone, there was a lot of people, he decided to sit in the farthest seat possible, this way it won't attract attention. He also saw Kinoko at the distance, but he decided to leave her to concentrate.
A few minutes later all the seats were taken, he also saw that the green haired girl from the entrance was there.
The written test was easy for him, despite never having gone to a school, Yamikumo was very intelligent thanks to the different books he had.
The time limit for the written test was over, then a person entered the room and seated at the front of everyone.
- "Welcome to my live performance of today!"- The guy screamed, the guy in question was a blonde man which Yamikumo recognized.
- "It's Present Mic. I guess a hero school will have heroes as teachers." –
- "Everybody! Say HEY!"-
Nobody said anything.
- "… Looks like we have a tough crowd this year! Now I will briefly explain what the practical test consists of! Are you ready?!"-
More silence…
Izumi POV.
- "Incredible, it's the voice hero, Present Mic! I hear him every week on the radio. This is incredible! All the teachers at UA are pro heroes!"- She was muttering again.
- "Shut up" – Right, Kachan was right beside her.
- "These are the important points of the entrance exam. For 10 minutes we will carry out an exercise in a simulated urban area. You can bring whatever you want with you. After this presentation, each of you will go to the area for the exercise that has been assigned to you." –
After this explanation the different areas were showed in the screen.
- "Will they let classmates from the same school collaborate with each other?"- Asked Bakugou to himself.
- "Although the registration numbers are consecutive, sure the assigned area will be different, right?"- Izumi replied.
- "Then I won't be able to crush you."- Said Bakugo.
- "Three types of potential enemies will be in large numbers in the exercise area. Each one has a set score depending on the degree of difficulty."-
The three kinds of enemies were shown in the screen, 1, 2 and 3 points.
- "Each on of you must immobilize potential enemies using your quirks. Your goal will be to earn the most points. Of course, anti-heroic behaviors, such as attacking other people, are prohibited."- Present Mic finished.
- "Excuse me! I have a question!" – Said a tall guy with short dark blue hair.
- "On the sheet he mentions four types of villains. If it is a mistake, it would be a shame for the UA. We applicants want teaching to be heroes who will become role models and that is why we are sitting in this place!"- He said in a high tone.
- "Also, you, the girl with the curly hair" – He said pointing at Izumi.
- "M-Me?"-
- "You've been muttering for a long time, that is very distracting! If you only plan to come to play, I ask you to get out of here immediately!"-
- "S-Sorry"-
Yamikumo POV.
- "That guy needs to chill out, can't he see that she is nervous? I would answer him, but I don't want to call any attention. Sorry girl, you are at your own in this one."-
- "Ok, ok"- Present Mic said breaking the tension. – "Applicant number 7111, thank you for your good observation. The fourth type of villain scores zero points! Try to avoid it at all costs!"-
- "I see, Thank you very much!" – Said the guy with a bow.
- "That's all for me! What the hero Napoleon Bonaparte ever said! A true hero is one who overcomes all the misfortunes of life! Go Beyond! Plus Ultra!"-
After this, everyone went to their respective assigned areas.
…
…
…
Battle center B.
Izumi POV.
- "It's so big!"- Said Izumi in awe.
- "It's like a city! In an area a, how many villains can there be?"- Said another applicant.
- "Why does everyone seem so confident? Aren't they nervous? Huh?"- She quickly turned and saw the girl from the entrance. – "It's her! We are in the same area! Right, I have to thank her for what happened."- She started to head towards the girl but was stopped by a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see the same guy who called her in the writing test.
- "That girl seems to be concentrating. What are you trying to do? Are you taking the test to obstruct others?"- The scary guy scolded her.
Everyone that was watching this interaction started muttering with each other.
- "It's the girl who was fooling at the entrance. They scold her and she cowers in fear."-
- "At least we have one less rival"-
- "They seem to feel lucky about it."-
- "That's enough! Don't you think?"- Said a voice.
Everyone turned at the source of the voice, it was Yamikumo.
- "It's the guy from the gate. We are in the same area as well"-
Yamikumo POV.
Yamikumo was ready for the exam, but then he overheard the glasses guy scolding the green haired girl, that was enough he must interfere.
- "That's enough! Don't you think?" – Everyone turned at him. – "Let me ask you something. Do you know this girl?" – He asked at the glasses guy.
- "No, but…" – He was interrupted by Yamikumo.
- "Then why are you making assumptions about this girl. Maybe she knows the other girl and wanted to wish her luck?"-
- "Yes, but…"-
- "Look at her, can't you see she is nervous, put yourself in her place, you are nervous and then a random guy starts scolding at you for just a random assumption."-
After a few seconds of silence, the guy started to talk again but he directed to Izumi.
- "I must apologize for my behavior, I guess I was too rude with you. The thing I wanted to say is if you don't know that girl, I suggest you to not interfere with her concentration."- He said with some weird hand movement. He then separated and started focusing on the exam.
- "That also goes for the rest of you" -Yamikumo said glaring at the rest of the applicants which just turned away and focused on the exam.
- "T-Thank you"- Said the girl to him.
- "Don't mention it. Good luck in the exam."- He said and then separated from her to focus on the exam.
Izumi was staring at him with a small blush in her face, but then a loud scream was heard.
- "START!"- Present Mic Screamed, then the gates of the city opened.
Everyone was confused and were staring at the city, everyone except for one person.
Yamikumo quickly drew his Katana and charged inside the city, he found three 1-point robots, he quickly slashed through them destroying the three robots with one slash.
Everyone was staring at him and started muttering.
- "What is he doing?"-
- "There were no indications to start. He's gonna be disqualified"-
- "What are you waiting for?!" – Present Mic screamed again. – "There's no countdowns in a real battle. That guy understands it. Come on or he will get all the points to himself!"-
Izumi POV.
- "Eeeeh?!"- Everyone rushed at the city leaving Izumi behind.
- "I'm already behind" – She thought and quickly rushed inside the city; she then remembered the conversation with All Might of how to activate One for All.
Small Flashback.
- "Whenever you want to activate One for All just remember these words. Clench your buttcheeks and scream from the deep of your heart!"-
Flashback end.
Izumi was running through the city searching for robots when a wall was destroyed in front of her, then a 1-point emerged from the wall.
- "Target in sigh! Eliminate!"-
- "A 1-point, here it comes…Why I can't move? Why?"- She was about to get hit but a laser destroyed the robot.
- "Merci"- Said a French looking guy. – "We do an excellent team, but I doubt we'll see each other again. Adieu"-
- "Six minutes remaining!"- Screamed Present Mic.
- "Six minutes! This isn't good!"- She started panicking, she then turned at the nice girl from the entrance.
- "28 points"- She said. Then Izumi turned at the scary guy with glasses.
- "45 points"- He said.
- "How did they managed to get so many points? This is bad, the enemies are decreasing."-
…
…
…
Observation Room.
- "A limited time and a vast area, their abilities will be revealed."- Nezu said while looking at the cameras.
- "Be aware of the situation without any delay."- The camera focused on a guy with multiple arms. – "Act immediately, despite a delay."- The camera now focused on the guy with glasses. – "Stay calm no matter the situation" - The camera now focused on the French looking guy. – "And, of course, pure combat skills"- The camera focused on Bakugo. - "The basic capacities to protect the streets are evaluated by points."
- "We have an interesting batch this year?"- Asked a teacher.
- "No. Not yet but let's find out"- Said Nezu while pressing a red button.
…
…
…
Yamikumo POV.
Yamikumo slashed another 3-points robot with his Katana, he was doing very well in this exam.
- "With this one I have a total of 82 points, and I didn't even use my fire or telekinesis." – He thought but then the floor started shaking and a giant robot appeared in the center of the city, the Zero-points robot. – "That's a big motherf*cker. I should get out of here"- But before he could start running, he saw the brown-haired girl trapped under some debris from the building, he was about to go and help her but then he spotted the green haired girl jumping towards the zero-points and with just ONE hit, the robot was completely destroyed.
- "That strength…it's similar to All Might's… could she be…?"- Before he could end his train of thought he saw that the girl started falling, he quickly got closer to the brown-haired girl and helped get out of the debris.
- "You can make things float, right? Can you use it in yourself?"-
- "Y-Yes"- Answered the girl.
- "Use it, I'll throw you at her so you can stop her fall. Don't worry I'll get you to the ground safely."
- "Okay."-
The girl used her quirk in herself, then Yamikumo used his Telekinesis to move her. – "She is weightless, this is going to be easier"- He then proceeded to launch the girl towards the other. When both were close the brown-haired girl slapped the other in the face but fortunately that worked and both were floating in the sky, Yamikumo quickly pulled both girls into the ground safely and finally the brown-haired girl deactivated her quirk…and then she threw up.
- "Are you okay?"- Yamikumo asked, the brown-haired girl just raised her thumb up, while the other was muttering something about getting some points but before she could so anything…
- "Time's up!" – Present Mic screamed, and the girl just collapsed into the ground.
- "Her body is so broken. Is this the backlash of One for All? Then I'm glad I didn't accept it, sorry girl but, better you than me."- He then heard the other applicants speaking.
- "Who's that girl? She has some kind of strengthen quirk, but she is very nervous."-
- "She destroyed the robot with one hit. There's no doubt that she is amazing"-
- "They don't see it, do they? She didn't do that to show up her strength, he did it to rescue the other girl, she didn't even flinch. But why the proctors didn't stop the robot? Maybe they wanted to prove the heroism of the applicants, in that case there must be second type of score, one that rate the heroic acts, if that's the case, then she…hmm?"- Yamikumo wandered, he then turned and saw the glasses guy staring at the girl, he was probably thinking the same.
- "Good, all of you did great."- A small old lady said.
- "Who is she?"- An applicant said.
- "That mademoiselle is the pillar of UA, she is the reason of why the school can do these dangerous tests."- Said the French-looking guy. – "She is the heroine Recovery Girl."-
The now identified as Recovery Girl got close to the green-haired girl - "Oh my, it looks like is your quirk and body are not in tune with each other. Let's fix you up."- Then she kissed the girl's forehead and quickly the girl has healed to everyone's surprise.
- Is there anyone else injured?"-
…

…
A week later.
Atanagi's bar.
Yamikumo POV.
Yamikumo was having a dinner with his parents, a week passed since the test, Kinoko talked about the exam and her experience in there, without knowing that he participated in it as well.
- "The results must be ready for today or by tomorrow, right?" – Asked Akane.
- "Yes. I'm confident, I know I passed but I'm still a little nervous."- Replied Yamikumo.
- "I'm so happy that you got an opportunity to take the exam. Remember thank the Principal Nezu for the opportunity."-
- "Don't worry, I will."- Suddenly a knock in the door was heard. – "I'll open the door. Thanks for the meal."-
Yamikumo opened the door and saw the mail guy.
- "I have a card for Yamikumo Atanagi. From UA, well look at you, trying to get in? I wish you luck. Here you go"- The mail guy said handing Yamikumo his acceptance letter.
- "Thank you"- He said before closing the door, he quickly went to the table and opened the letter, a small device was found inside the letter, he put the device on the table and a holographic screen showed the principal Nezu.
- *Yamikumo Atanagi, in this projection I will provide you with your scores in the entrance exam. First of all, you got a perfect score in the written part, congratulations. Now, for the practical, you scored a total of 82 villain points, that is more than enough you pass. Congratulations! * - Yamikumo smiled at that. – *But that's not all, you see, we had a secret scoring, rescue points, we rate the heroic acts apart from the villain points. By saving another applicant from a dangerous fall you earned a total of 30 hero points earning a total of 112 points overall, as well taking the first place in the scoreboard. Within this letter you will also find you student ID, as well for your assigned class. We are waiting, at your hero academy. * -
- "You did it! I'm so proud of you! You didn't just get in, you also scored first place."- Akane said while hugging Yamikumo.
Yamikumo returned the hug but didn't say anything. – "Brother…I did it!"- He broke the hug and felt his phone vibrate, he pulled it from his pants and saw a messge from Kinoko.
I did it! I got in!
- K.
He smiled and replied.
See? I told you'll get in. Congrats.
- Y.
He saved his phone and took a last glance at the screen where the scoreboard was projected.
