The last ten months have been something for Peter, he has had to get used to a whole new history as well as learning a whole new language which took a lot of his early months. However Peter is rather clever so he managed to pick up Japanese fluently within the first six months. It wasn't without faults of course, he had a few funny mistakes in the start of learning it from what Yu told him. He once tried to order pork but it may have came out as something that's more suited in a porno, that did make a rather awkward walk home as Yu couldn't stop laughing at the mistake.
He had a few rough months with dealing with everything that happened but he is trying not to let that get him too down, after all he knew that wherever his Aunt May, Mr Stark and everyone he cared for were, they would want him to become the best Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man he could be. As Mr Stark had told him, he wanted him to be better so that was what he was going to be. There was no real leads on how he got to the world from what Aizawa and the Detective have told him so there was no way to return yet.
On the plus side, the whole idea of a Hero society should make it easier to help people while he was here, after all without having to hide your actions and run from the cops in fear of being arrested should allow him to help more people but he really wasn't someone who wanted frame which was funny given how Yu had plans for herself being a world famous Pro Hero. It was still surreal for Peter to see that Heroes had charts like they were musicians releasing albums with All Might current the number one hero in Japan, most likely the whole world really. The idea of being famous wasn't something that Peter wanted but he also understand the need to regulate those powers from use, it's why he had supported Iron-Man during his fight with Captain America.
The world was still often very confusing for Peter as well as how many different and weird heroes they were in this world. Hell there was an Orca called Gang Orca in the top ten and Peter was sure that he saw an news report about an up and coming Pro Hero who was basically a washing machine on legs the other day. Everyone acting like it was normal, it was something that he had to hide early on was his shock at everything but it was something he was slowly getting use to. It was nice that he had someone like Yu to explain things to him, she has been a great help along with Shinji, who was around a decent amount and once Peter knew Japanese, he was a good help as well.
Now actually living with Yu was something else, she wasn't the cleanest person and it took a surprise visit from Aizawa who wasn't happy with the state of the messy home for her to get her act together with cleaning. Something about "how could Peter learn anything when he was worried about what he could catch from the mess" and how he was having second thoughts about this whole thing made Yu step up a bit with the cleaning. Not perfect in any way but acceptable was what Aizawa said, at least he could see the floor now was what Peter thought.
Today was the day of the UA Entrance Exam, Peter Parker had been given a chance to take it, Aizawa did have the power to get him in via recommendation but he felt that it would be better to see what Parker had learned through the written exam and a better view of his abilities in the practical exam. Peter had been working on his Iron Spider suit for the exam and while it was running for now, it would have limited use for maybe three or four hours is his guess at full power. Enough for the exam and maybe a class or two but his base suit that he got from Tony was there, it just seemed to have shorted out at some point so Karen wasn't active at the moment. He planned on using it for the exam and for emergency use after that. His base suit is enough for normal training that Aizawa had said UA would do.
He was currently eating breakfast with Yu as he was nervous about the day ahead. He had already done the written test and felt that he did well enough to past but it's been a while since he was active as Spider-Man, he had kept up with work outs and that but it's another matter swinging about. He was playing with his eggs as Yu noticed that he was nervous as she started to speak up in Japanese. "Hey Peter, you know it's okay to be nervous right? UA is a pretty big deal for your future but I know that you have got this in the bag. You got your... what you call them, web shooters in your bag?"
Peter smiled as he knew that she was trying, he knew that she may feel like she isn't doing a good job but she was as he looked at his bag and pulled them out to show her. "Yup, got them as well as two refills which should be enough right? I don't really know what to expect, do I need more because it's too late to make anymore."
"You know I can't tell you what to expect, Aizawa will somehow know as he knows everything and I am not gonna to deal with him." She said as Peter couldn't help by laugh a bit as it did seem to be true of the Pro Hero and possible teacher for Peter. "However, I am sure that is fine, you will find out when you get there, just no swinging there, take the train right? I don't want to have to deal with the cops again after last time."
Peter rubs his neck as he remember he had tested the web fluid in the park and got into trouble for using his "quirk" until he pointed out it wasn't actually a power but more an support item which still got him and Yu a talking to by the cops. "I know, it's faster but I get it as the cops said, you could have web up a Pro Hero on their way to stop a crime. I will take the train like a normal kid."
"Good, now finish your eggs, you will need the energy for the exam, trust me on that." She said as she started to clean up her plate as she stopped at the sink as she turned back to Peter. "You know that no matter what happens today, I am proud of you, Peter. I know it's silly because you are totally gonna rock this exam and show Aizawa that he should have gotten you that recommendation but given everything that happened to you, you have not let that hold you down." She still hadn't a full idea of what happened just the basics but it was enough to know it could have broken some adults never mind a fifteen year old that Peter was.
"Thank you." Peter said as he did start to eat his eggs, he didn't like to think about it much. Sure he would ever so often but he hoped that maybe his Aunt May was safe and that despite his failures that Mr Stark would find a way to have defeated Thanos in the end. He had hope for that at least. "You know I want to say that I am proud of you too, Yu."
That comment got Yu off guard a bit as what did she done to make him proud of her. "What do you mean, Peter?"
"I mean I have been on the internet, all the reports have you as a Pro Hero who is a little selfish but I know differently, you took me in when you didn't need to and you have worked on improving yourself while helping me with my studies. It can't be easy when you aren't too much older then me but you have done well and look at me now, I have an entrance exam for UA to do today. I don't know if I would have gotten here without you, Yu." He said as he finished his eggs, Yu turned back to the sink as she had a tear in her eyes at Peter's kind words, she quickly got herself together as Peter brought the plate up to the sink. "Also I can now walk on the floor instead of the first couple of months when I had to use the roof due to the mess." He joked which made the both laugh.
Peter arrived at the famous UA High School for his exam, he felt like he had a lot riding on his as he took a deep breath before walking into the grounds. Ahead of him he saw a boy starting to fall as he quickly tried to get his web shooters out of his bag out to help him but he was stopped in mid air and floating after a girl touched him. He was glad that someone helped the kid as he quickly put his bag back on his back and headed into the school.
He arrived at his seat, he seemingly the only one that wasn't in a school uniform, he never saw anyone during his written exam, from what he understood most took it at their middle school while Peter took it here. He was just wearing some normal clothes as he found that his seat was next to the boy that had fallen outside. He smiled as he looked at the kid and spoke "Hey there, I'm Peter Parker, I saw what happened outside, I am glad the girl helped you out, I was gonna to but she was just faster."
"Oh t-thanks, I'm Izuku Midoriya and forgive me for asking but you're from America right? While your Japanese is perfect, you still have a bit of an American accent to you." Midoriya said as he didn't want to upset Peter but he was just curious, he knew that UA was world famous and had a big following in American given All Might, he didn't know that transfer students from there trying out.
"Yup, from Queens, New York. Had to come to Japan to stay with a family friend." Peter remembered the cover story that Detective Tsukauchi and Aizawa had put together for him about why he was here. "Also it helps that UA has the best hero course, All Might came here right?" Peter quickly tried to change the subject onto something else as it still didn't feel natural to use the cover story yet.
"Oh yes, he as well as many Pro Heroes came through the halls of UA, it's why the exam is always so busy. It's the leading hero course in Japan, maybe only rivalled by Shiketsu High in the west. I often forget how much world appeal UA has world wide, good luck on your exams, Peter." Midoriya said with a smile as Peter returned the smile back to the kid.
"Same to you, Midoriya." Peter remember that the family name came first in Japan unlike in America where it was given name than family name. The teacher then arrived on the stage as he introduced himself as Present Mic and sounded like a old radio DJ that Peter had seen in old movies in his world. He smiled as he heard the teacher ask for them to make some noise with a hey as Peter yelled out "HEY!" however he noticed that he was the only one to do so which made him a little embarrassed.
"Well I thank that listener for trying to make some noise for me. Since the rest of you are all business, allow me to tell you how this practical exam will go." Peter listened as he heard Midoriya nerd out about Present Mic and a blonde kid telling him to shut up which wasn't very nice. "This is how the exam will go, my listeners. You'll be experiencing a ten minutes long exam called 'Mock Cityscape Maneuvers'! Bring along anything you want!" Peter smirks as he looks at his bag that had his Iron Spider suit as well as his web shooters. "After this presentation, you'll each head to your assigned testing locations! OK?!"
Peter looked at his card and saw that he was going to battle center B for his exam. He smiled as he was looking forward to finally being able to swing about once again, god how he has missed doing that. "Each site is filled with three kinds of faux villains! Points are awarded for defeating each type according to their difficultly levels!" Peter looked at the screen and saw that there was ones for 1, 2 and 3 points which made him think could so like a high score in a video game, easy enough. Present Mic went on to explain "Use your quirks to disable those faux villains to earn points! That's your goal, dear Listeners and of course playing Anti-Hero and attacking other examinees is against the rules!"
"May I ask a question, sir?" A boy wearing glasses a few rows down had put his hand up and stood up as Present Mic seemingly allowed him to do as the boy kept going. "There appears to be four types of faux villains on this handout." He holds up a piece of paper that he had as he went on. "I expect such a blatant error, if it is one, to be highly unbecoming of UA, Japan's top academy. We are all here with the hopes of being molded by this school into model Pro Heroes."
Peter couldn't help but think that this kid needs to take a chill pill as he turns to face where he was sitting. "Also, you with the curly hair." Look straight at Midoriya as he said that. "You have been muttering the whole time, it has been highly distracting. As for you, American I assume with the accent." Look straight at Peter himself. "If you want to treat this as some sort of joke, I advise you to leave right now." That got Peter to rise his eyebrow, was this because he told Present Mic when everyone was being a stick in the mud. Midoriya muttering sorry in the direction of this boy.
"Alright now, let's settle down listeners." Present Mic trying to calm the boy down who had just called out Midoriya and Parker. "Examinee 7111, nice catch and thanks! However the fourth type of faux villain gets you no points whatsoever, it's there as more of an obstacle then anything else. So best to avoid it all together but there will be only one in each battle center, there to rampage through it." That made some sense to Peter, often there was obstacles in the way of being a hero so likely to see how kids would handle that.
"The great hero Napoleon Bonaparte once said 'True heroism consists in being superior to the ills of life' Now that's all from me. I'll leave my listeners with our school moto. PLUS ULRTA!" Peter smirked at that, he had heard that was a common phrase used by the heroes that came from this school, even Yu had said it when cleaning which was funny to him. "Break a leg, everyone!"
Yu was on patrol with Kamui as she was thinking about how Peter would likely be about to start the entrance exam for UA about now. She was nervous for him, she wanted him to get so bad as she could see that the kid needed something like this to help him. Maybe getting close to being the hero was in his world would help him out in the long run. Kamui spoke up as he noticed that "You seem distracted, Mt Lady?"
"Oh it's nothing, it's just today's the start of Peter's entrance exam for UA." With that Kamui understood why Yu's mind was elsewhere and why she requested to patrol together. They had often done so but she was more insistent that they do so today. "It's why I ask to patrol with you today, hoping that would take my mind of him doing it."
"I mean I am sure you have nothing to worry about, from what I remember seeing in our first meeting, he is rather talented in the hero department." Kamui only saw a small part of what Parker did against the giant ten months ago but he seemed to hope his own. "I am sure he will be enjoying himself being back in the swing of things."
Yu couldn't help but laugh at the small joke by Kamui, he sure would be enjoying being able to swing about again, Yu had thought. It was why she let him doing it longer than she knew she should have when testing out his webs in the park. Sure it got them into the trouble but it was one of the few times she truly felt that Peter didn't have the weight of the world on him. "I am sure you are right, I am just nervous as I am sure this will help Parker out a lot, not just being in the top school in Japan but also being on the path of being a hero."
"My how you have grown in these ten months, Yu, I remember the vain Pro Hero debut who stole the glory from me on her debut to now being worried about her young ward being on the path of becoming a Pro Hero." He said as Yu wanted to argue but she couldn't really, Peter had changed her a bit. While she did want to be famous and in the past she had always wanted to help people, she had to admit that her focus had changed from helping people first before the fame.
"Well maybe if you were quicker then you would have gotten the credit, instead you want to monologue, which is so boring." She teasing said to Kamui who simply laughed as some things will never truly change from the young hero. He hoped that Parker was as good as Aizawa said so that Yu had nothing to worry about.
Peter felt a little out of place as he stood there in his full Iron Spider suit, the other examinees were look at him, most didn't seem to have any supply items never mind a super suit like he did. He almost wanted to take it off but he knew that he wanted to pass this exam and this would help him big time, he wasn't going to let down Yu and fail it just because he didn't want to be on show so to speak. He was sure when the exam starts that everyone will focus on getting points and not on him. He was a little shocked at the size of the test area, it was like a full city which just made Peter wonder what type of budget did the school have.
"Why are you staring at her? Hoping to interfere?" He heard as he saw the glasses boy grab Midoriya as he looked to be going over to the girl that saved him before. He guessed that he was likely going to say thanks as he never saw him say it to her before. "She has a lot more to focus on then dealing with you or maybe that's your plan distract her from the exam."
Peter stepped in as he tried to defuse the whole thing. "Hey man, he is just likely going to say thanks to the girl, she helped him out when he fell in the front gate. I saw it myself and was gonna help but she beat me to it."
"Oh it's the American, your Japanese surprises me but you have shown that you don't treat this serious enough." The boy turned to face Parker as he looked very serious. "This school is the top academy in all of Japan and the people who make it will be molded into some of the top heroes in this country. If you are not going to take that serious then you should leave right now before you embarrass yourself."
Peter was about to say something as Present Mic yelled out "AND BEGIN" from the top of what looks to be a tower on the opposite side, he sure did have some volume to his voice. The boy raced into the center as Peter smirked and shot some webs out to shoot himself over the mass group at the door and into the faux city before anyone else. His Iron Spider extra legs shot out has they attached to a building side as he took in the city while the hub on the display started to point out where the villains were. "Oh this was gonna be a lot of fun." he said as he swung into action.
The entire city was filled with these robots that Present Mic was talking about as the heads up display on his mask pointed out where each one was. Peter skillfully moved throughout the city using his webs to catch some of the robots and smashing them into the ground as two more came at him, one taking a swipe at him which he managed to dodge "Now, now Dr Robotic, you will get you chance just wait your turn." He said as he landed a powerful right roundhouse kick that knocked one into the other, smashing both of them. Peter took note of their numbers, 8 points already.
"You weren't kidding about Young Parker, Aizawa." Toshinori Yagi said in the observation room that all of the teachers are watching the exam on. Aizawa was right ten months ago, watching Parker go was a sight to see. The way he moved about such agility through the city was something that showed his experience.
"Yeah but if he took it a little more serious, he could be on to possibly break your record, All Might." Snipe another teacher in the room pointed out. While Parker was skilled no doubt, his focus seemed to be on having fun which could be an issue in a real fight as Aizawa thought about it. "The kid, Bakugo in Battle Center F has already more points than him because of just that, he seems to be focus on just destroying as many as he can while Parker is trying to get style points." Snipe pointed on a different screen which showed Bakugo in the middle of a lot of broken robots, he was on 11 points at the moment which was three ahead of Parker.
"While you are right, Bakugo is being a lot more reckless with how he is doing it. He isn't considering how the other examinees may be effected by his actions." Principal Nezu pointed out as he watched the screens. "Young Parker has been trying to prevent any risk of collateral to other students from his attacks by his use of his webs keeps the faux villains together as he destroys them. It is interesting to see so many promising young wannabe heroes in this year's pool and that's not even considering those in the recommendation pool."
That was true but Toshinori couldn't help but worry about young Midoriya running through the city as he was trying to get some points. Come on kid, you don't need to be on Young Parker or Young Bakugo's level just yet. Just make sure to get through this, I believe in you. He thought as he switched his focus back on Bakugo who had just gotten some more points.
Peter was on top of one of the building as he saw spikey black hair kid totally outnumber by faux villains which caused him to quickly swing down and towards the scene that was unfolding. The kid was holding his own as he smashed a few in the front as one had managed to seemingly get the drop on him from behind but that's when Peter came in and webbed up the arm was trying to hit the kid. "Now that isn't very fair, you can see the kid is busy, wait..." Peter landed near the kid as he swung and slammed the 2 pointer into a wall next to him "Your..." slammed him into the opposite wall of the ally "Turn." He flipped over the 2 pointer and brought it over his head and into the ground below destroying the faux villain.
His tingle went off as he ducked from another 2 pointer that tried to take a swipe at him before behind, he slide on the ground was about to try to kick the faux villain when a hand that seemed to be made out of something hard but looked like a arm came through the centre of the faux villain. "Thanks for the save, man. Thought I would return the favor." The boy smirked as he held out his hand to help Peter up to his feet which he accepted. "Cool suit by the way."
"Thanks, man, cool quirk." Peter replied back to him as he looked at a few 1 pointers making their way down into the alley as both me and the kid got ready to fight before Peter got an idea. "You ever been bowling?" seeing that the villains were in a prefect formation for him to swing the kid that could harden himself into them.
The kid gave Peter a toothy grin as he got what Peter was planning as he looked at the web shooter on his wrist. "Team-up, now that a mainly idea." Peter was a little confused with the words but he saw the kid turn his forearms hard and get ready as Peter shot some web onto his back and swung him right at the 1 pointers which all went crashing down as the Kid started to smash them.
"STRIKE!" Peter said as he leap up and swung away from the scene.
"Are you sure, you didn't fill Young Parker in on what to expect, Aizawa?" Principal Nezu said as he watched the young wannabe hero leap into helping other students when numbers were against them and helping them get points at the expense of his own.
"No, Principal Nezu, I made it very clear to Yu as well that she was not to let Parker know what the exam was testing on. I'll have a word with Parker after the exam to make sure that she didn't tell him." Parker was laughing and just having fun which caused Aizawa to shake his head, if he took it more seriously then he would be leading in the villain points table but he was currently behind Bakugo in that as the blonde's boy scream of DIEEE came through the speakers of one of the screen.
"It seems like he may have worked out what this exam truly is a test of outside of the villains on his own then if Yu was true to her word." The Principal said as he was impressed if Parker had worked that out or even if this was just how he was in general. "Or it could be simply the case that he works well with others and puts others first. Either way, this is very impressive from the young man. Maybe it's time to put the true test out there."
Peter had almost forgot that this was meant to be an exam, he was having too much fun as he yells out swinging from building to building, god had he missed swinging through the city like this. It was so freeing for him as he had lost count on how many points he had after he hit the twenty mark. That was a while ago too so he wasn't sure what he had as he landed on the side of a building as the clock on his display was counting down from just above a minute. He was scanning the area as he heard a massive boom coming from about a mile away from him. "Shit" He spoke in English for the first time since arrive at the school as he wondered what that could be.
He crawled up the way until he got to the top of the building and saw that the boom was caused by the zero pointer arriving in the city. It was a massive robot that Peter had to guess would be equal to every single one of the robots he had defeated put together and even than he thought that maybe under selling the size of this. He knew that for the exam that the best idea would be to avoid that massive faux villain but as he was about to leave the area his heads up display showed something worrying. He prayed that he was wrong but he used the googles of his mask to zoom and there was someone trapped under some rubble in the pathway of the behemoth.
It was moving fast and would surely crush the girl so Peter wasted no time as he swung his webs out to try to make his way towards the area. It was far though, he was pushing himself to try to to her. He refuses to have another death on his hands as he felt his muscles in his legs and arms tensed up, he pushed himself even harder as he landed on a roof and sprung off it shooting out another web but he was too slow as fast as he was, he was too far to save the girl as he attempted to shoot a web at her. NO, not again, I can do this. I'll be stronger, faster, better.
All of a sudden a green blur leap into the air in front of the behemoth and heard a yell "SMASH!"
Writer Note
Okay so here is the third chapter and next chapter will see the full fallout of the exam and if Peter got in or not as well. The pace will likely slow down a little bit in getting chapters out, this was took a while longer than planned because I had a change of plan going forward really which meant I changed a few things in it. I had the first three chapters full written finished for a couple of weeks now before that but I am still going to try to get chapters out once a week, maybe a little quicker depending, the fourth chapter was already half way done before the change of plans so may that may be sooner or not depending on how much changes needed to it to fit in with the new plans.
Now there was a review that from the last chapter that said that it felt a bit rush, I am unsure if you mean the pace of the story(if so what part) or if not what do you mean? Just so I can try to work on whatever felt rush in the future chapters, this will one will likely feel rushed as I did rush through the ten months in a mini time skip because in my head, it was more about Peter learning Japanese and some minor things, he isn't fully used to the world yet so it will see be shown him getting used to the world of quirks and superpowers.
Another review that I said somethings that I do want to clear up, Thanos snap was not the sole reason Peter has arrived in MHA, it's part of the reason why but along with another reason that I have there is a very small hint in the chapter two about caused Peter to be dropped into the BNHA world. So it's unique situation that brought Peter to this world that the others affected by the snap wouldn't have. Also while I will have some similar characters based off loosely off Spider-Man mythos, there won't be out and out variants. I don't want people to go into this thinking that is possible and be disappointed when it doesn't happen, the other things in your review, well as River Song would say spoilers.
