It has been ten grueling months since Izuku and Hitoshi had agreed to train under Yagi. Both boys stood at the top of a staircase that led down to the beach

And here and now both boys are looking at the last heap pile of trash they had just finished loading into their sensei's trailer. Breathing heavily, exhausted from their morning work.

Despite wanting to fall to the ground to relax their tired legs they stood, looking down at the beach. The beach that not ten months ago was nothing but a trash dump for the local population.

Izuku looked over to Hitoshi, still panting slightly out of breath, "I can't believe we did it. We cleaned the whole beach."

Hitoshi could only nod. The exhaustion that he would normally feel replaced by the onslaught of excitement on completing the beach.

Yagi called out to the two boys, in excitement, holding out his phone with the camera app opened. As both boys turned around Yagi quickly snapped a picture of the two boys who were left in confusion.

"Why did you just take our picture Yagi-sensei?" Izuku asked out.

Just laughing out loud as he handed the phone to the boys, the pride in his voice was unmistakable "Here take a look for yourselves!"

Hitoshi took the phone with Izuku looking over his shoulder at what was on the phone. It was a photo of the two boys. The first photo was when they first started to train under Yagi.

While the boys looked healthy you could see the clear difference from the second picture. "Just look at you two from before, you two were so, scrawny back when you first started! And now look at your two, your muscles are much more defined. You both struggled at the beginning to carry out a fridge together, but you both carried that last fridge out as if it was nothing!"

Both boys grinned wide staring down at their before and after photo.

"I am proud of how far you both have come since the beginning! And I know more than ever that you two are ready for the UA entrance exam! Now, why don't you two take the rest of today and tomorrow off to relax for the exam."

Handing back the phone, both replied with exhausted but excited thank yous. Waving off the kids as Toshinari got into his car taking off to dispose of the trash.

"Hey, Toshi, you want to come back to my place today? My mom said she was going to cook a celebration lunch for completing our goal to clean the beach."

Looking over at the boy, a slight smile that would be hidden underneath his exhausted look by anyone besides Izuku. "Oh, I couldn't possibly turn down food from your mom."

"Great, we should get going then. I Just had my clone send the text confirming to her that you will be joining us today."

Looking over towards his duplicate, taking the phone back. "Thank you, did you manage to find anything else about Yagi-sensei?"

The clone Izuku shook his head frowning. "Sorry master, just like before we have failed to uncover any new information about him."

"That's quite alright, thanks for attempting, you may go now."

Bowing down to the original, "Sorry for not being of more use to you," Disappearing into nothing leaving behind the two boys.

The purple haired boy chuckled as he watched the duplicate vanish into thin air. "Still trying to figure out Yagi-sensei's hero identity?"

"Yeah, I can't help it. At first it was out of mistrust, but now it just feels like a challenge to figure it out." Giving a slight laugh from under his breath, "I'm sure you will figure it out eventually."

With that the two boys started their walk back to Izuku's place. About a quarter way to his apartment complex the boys ran into a familiar blond headed explosive boy who was stomping his way towards them.

"Hey, you two dorks are done working on that stupid beach already?" he yelled out as he approached them.

"Oh, Kaachan! Yeah, we just got done cleaning up the last load we were heading to my place to get lun-" "Good, I'm coming then!"

Hitoshi spoke up in a voice just barely audible to the other two boys, "We did all of the cleaning, you don't get to join us in our celebration." Receiving a death glare, from the explosive boy, who yelled out, "Oh, and who asked you anyways Loser?!"

As the two boys began to argue back and forth with each other Izuku walked quietly in between the two chuckling to himself. Thinking back to when they really started becoming friends.

Izuku was just leaving the beach giving a slight hand sign back at a hidden figure that was watching over at the retreating backs of his creator and Hitoshi. Getting up and cleaning up the supplies and taking off himself.

Hitoshi, who was a few steps behind Izuku, gave a weird look at the back of the green headed boy's head as he saw the slight hand movements, "What were the hand movements about?"

"Oh, that was nothing, I'll tell you about it when we get to the restaurant okay." came the excited reply of the green-headed boy. With that the exhausted looking purple boy decided to drop the topic for the time being, as they continued walking towards their destination.

It was only a short time of walking before the two arrived at a small quiet cafe. Entering the nice cool building breathing a sigh of relief to be out of the heat of the glaring sun.

"Welcome to Kyoshi's Cafe, Hitoshi! Kaachan and I come here regularly after working out. They have some really amazing food."

Before Hitoshi could say anything, a smaller woman that was behind the store counter smiled at the two of them, "Oh, now Izuku flattery ain't going to get you a discount here you know that."

Chuckling "Oh! Good afternoon Akari, this is Hitoshi. We are going to be training together."
"Oh, and what about Bakugou? Where is he at?" She inquired still happily.

"You know how he can be." waving off the question, taking a seat at one of the booths that looked out at the city. Hitoshi followed suit sitting down across from him at the booth. The woman that was behind the counter came walking around handing the both of them a menu, "Just holler when you two are ready to order." quickly taking back off to behind the counter.

After the two boys had placed their orders to the waitress, the two boys just stared silently out of the window. Watching the people outside go by. Hitoshi listened idly to Izuku mumble excitedly as people with clear mutant quirks walked by the window.

It was when the waitress came back with their order that Izuku spoke up to Hitoshi for the first time. Asking the one question that he dreaded being asked.

"So, Hitoshi, what is your quirk?"

Jumping as the words left the other boy's mouth. Fidgeting as he looked uncomfortably out of the window.

Izuku stared at the boy in confusion at the others' sudden reaction to the question. Raising one of his green eyebrows up bewildered at what to think of the others' reaction.

"I-I'm sorry, if you don't wish to talk about it that's fine. I can tell you a bit about my quirk."
Turning his head back from the window to look Izuku in the eyes, taking a deep breath, his voice was quieter than normal, "It's alright Izuku, It's… It's just that everyone that knows my quirk says that it's a villainess quirk."

Looking down at the table he was too nervous to look at the green-haired boy in front of him. Too scared to see the disgusted face that he was sure he would have. Playing around with his fingers trying to not think about the current situation.

Meanwhile Izuku remained quiet as he looked on at Hitoshi in concern for what he must have gone through. As he was about to say something to get the purple teen's attention an explosion came from the side of the table rocking it causing both boys to look over in shock.

Standing there was a familiar explosive blond boy, glaring at Hitoshi. Who was sweating at the other boy's evil glare.

He barked out at the purple headed teen, "Who gives a shit what some dumb extras think of your damn quirk!" Sitting down next to Izuku still glaring towards the other boy. Continuing to snarl at Hitoshi as he spoke, "His quirk is Duplication-" pointing towards Izuku before pointing towards himself, "My quirk is the best, most powerful quirk of course! It's called Explosion!"

Never taking his burning red eyes away from the purple eyes of Hitoshi, "Now what is your so-called evil quirk!"

Looking away from the burning aggressive eyes wishing for a hole to swallow him up ending this whole conversation. Turning his head back to look towards the burning red eyes when a loud banging on the table regained his attention with the same deep snarl "What is your quirk!"

Izuku tried pulling on Bakugo's sleeve yelling at him to be nice. But was being ignored by the blond who only continued to glare at Hitoshi.

Finally Hitoshi took a deep breath, already regretting agreeing to come to the restaurant with Izuku. Speaking far too quietly for the two to hear. "My quirk is mind control."

"What was that you damn nerd?"
This time louder than before, but still quite just loud enough to be heard by the two boys. "I can control people's minds, okay…."

The quiet between the three boys was too much for Hitoshi as he looked away from the two once again ready for their outburst. His eyes closed tight as he was clenching his fist in expectation of what was to come next…

Jumping up in shock at the loud banging from the other side of the table, turning quickly to look towards the aggressive blond boy snarling. Preparing himself for the worst that was about to come.

Bakugo on the other side was just snarling at the stupidity of the other boy, peeved off at such a disappointing 'evil quirk' huffing out, "That's all? That's your so-called evil quirk? How fucking lame."

Izuku spoke up with a bright smile trying to calm the situation down. "Hitoshi, there is no such thing as an evil quirk, only evil people and how they use said quirk. You want to be a hero, right?"

Seeing the nod from Hitoshi as he shifted his focus from the annoyed blond who was still glaring at him. The green teen carried on what he was saying, "So I think you'll make a great hero then! I mean I can already think of hundreds of ways that you can use your quirk to help other people!"

The excitement bubbled up in him until it came rushing out as he pulled out his hero book for the future and began jotting down ideas that Hitoshi could use as a hero, mumbling questions too fast for Hitoshi to answer any of them.

Bakugo just shook his head in annoyance at his friend's annoying habit, while Hitoshi just looked on in shock at both boys. Trying to wrap his mind around everything that has happened in the past few minutes.

When the waitress came out from behind the counter with the ordered dishes of the three boys sitting at the table. Ignoring the situation at the table to used to Bakugo's annoyed expression and the mumbling rants of Izuku.

Setting the tray down on the table going unnoticed by the boys Clapping her hands loudly using her quirk for a second to cause the sound of the clap to be more pronounced to the three boys that were sitting at the table, causing them to hear over their own thoughts.

With her bright cheerful smile as the three teens looked up at her, "Good now that I have your attention, here are your meals. I hope you are okay with the usual Bakugo; I saw you were busy talking to your friends and didn't want to interrupt."

Chuckling at the gruff that Bakugo let out as he took his meal. The waitress nodded to the trio as Izuku and Hitoshi took their meal and took off back to help other customers.

As the Waitress took off Izuku looked over towards Bakugou in confused realization that his friend took off earlier that day. "By the way Kaachan, why are you here?"

Bakugo gave out a slight under-breath sigh, pulling out a phone in a green case from his pocket, "Some idiot keeps allowing his stupid copies to keep his damn cellphone. So, Aunty Inko asked me to bring it to you. That's when I saw you and the other nerd sitting at the table." handing the phone over to Izuku was blushing awkwardly as he took the phone.

The rest of their meal was spent in relative quiet with only Izuku feeling it in with his slight mumbling as he was going through a word document that was left open on his phone.

As the three finished eating and paid the bill, they headed off towards the door. As they got outside Hitoshi asked a question that he was wondering about since Izuku had received his phone from Bakugo. "Hey, Izuku, what were you mumbling about in the restaurant?"

Shocked at the question, embarrassed from his old habit that he can't seem to break, "Oh… Yeah, I was just uhm going over my duplicate's notes about Yagi-Sensei. I am trying to figure out what happened to him and what hero he used to be."

Raising one of his eyes up in curiosity towards Izuku "So, what has your clone figured out?"

"The only thing that it was able to come up with is an employment document as a secretary for All Might, but that he was on temporary administration leave."

The explosive blond who was ignoring the two's conversation blew a small explosion, receiving glares from passing citizens.

Ignoring them as he barked out angrily, "What?! You are telling me that pathetic deathly man works for THE All Might!"

Under his breath annoyed "You shouldn't be using your quirk like that Bakugo." Hitoshi said out but was ignored by the explosive blond who was only staring daggers at his green friend.

"Yeah, he is listed as a secretary for him, and like I said he is currently on administrative leave, more than likely from that injury that he received. But if he is only a secretary, how did he get such an injury from a villain attack."

From there Izuku started going off mumbling all of his questions about Yagi-sensei that were not adding up, forgetting the presence of the other two.

Bakugo rolled his eyes grumbling low "Whatever I still don't need the help of some sickly extra that already has his foot in his own coffin."

This became a regular routine for the three boys, Izuku and Hitoshi would head over to the cafe after their daily cleaning. Bakugo always comes in a little bit after they arrive and sits himself right down next to Izuku.

Back to the present time, the trio of boys had just arrived back at Izuku's apartment. As they entered the building, they were greeted by the smell of Inko's cooking.

"Mom, we're here!" Izuku yelled out. The three boys walked towards the kitchen, where they found a green-haired woman standing in front of the stove stirring a pot of food.

As she turned around at the sound of pattering feet entering into the kitchen. Her Bright emerald green eyes shined brightly as she gave the biggest smile towards the boys. "Welcome home my little green bean. Hitoshi, Katsuki, it's a pleasure to see you both here-" Turning back towards the stove, "Lunch will be done in just a little while, so just make yourself at home. I'll let you know when it's ready."

As the three boys thanked Inko they made their way down the hall and into one of the rooms. It was decorated heavily in All Might merchandise. Alongside other pro hero merchandise that Izuku has collected over the years.

Bakugo quickly took his place at one of the two computer chairs. Izuku looked over towards where Hitoshi was standing to offer him the other chair, but as he looked over, he saw the boy had already moved.

Chuckling as he looked down at his twin sized bed with All Might bedding was the purple-haired boy. Already trying to take a quick nap.

Moving quickly over to the other chair taking his seat, Izuku grabbed the pile of papers that he had printed out earlier that day. Handing one of the documents to Bakugo who took it aggressively from the boy staring at the paper.

Turning towards the napping boy on the bed and shoving him slightly to try and wake him up. But to Izuku's frustration but not his surprise the boy just continued to ignore him.

Bakugo, rolling his burning red eyes in annoyance, got up from the chair and walked over to the napping purple-haired boy, taking the other document from Izuku's hand

Smacking him with the paper across the face, yelling out as aggressive as he normally is. "Wake up you damn Lazy Ass!"

Getting up to look over at the blond, his eyes still draped half close in exhaustion, the annoyance coming across in his quiet voice. "Can't a guy get some sleep around here-" Looking away from Bakugo who was still growling at him like a rabid dog towards Izuku who was smiling sheepishly at him already starting to apologize. "Fine, who needs sleep anyways," grumbling out this last bit as he took the papers from Bakugo.

"Good now, as you two can see this is everything that I was able to gather about the UA entrance exam. I figured this would be the perfect time for us to go over our strategies for the entrance exam."

It was now the day of the entrance exam. Izuku was standing outside of the gates of UA. The towering cement walls protect the building. A giant blue archway with the UA logo greeted the boy as he took his first steps into the premises of UA for the first time.

Taking a deep breath trying to calm his nerves as he passed through the gates. His nerves were starting to get to him as the reality of the situation started to fill in. The only thing going through his mind was his fear of failing the test. Mumbling under his breath that no one would be able to hear, "I know we have done all we could to get prepared for this, but what if my dupli-"

Before he was able to finish his musing, he managed to trip on himself. The cement pathway he was walking on quickly headed towards his face. Closing his eyes as he braced himself for impact.

Opening his eyes as he felt something smack against his back, eyes bugging out as he saw that he was no longer moving towards the ground. That's when he felt someone helping him to be standing once again.

Turning with a breath of relief at the save, he turned around to look at the person who had helped save him. There he saw a girl with fair skin, her cheeks blushing pink. Her hair was colored auburn and reached down to her shoulders.

Her brown eyes that complemented her hair glowed brightly with kindness towards him. She was smiling softly towards Izuku as she said out kindly towards the boy, she had just saved from falling, "Are you okay? I'm sorry for using my quirk on you without your permission. I just figured it would be bad luck to fall during the entrance exam."

A slight blush covered Izuku's cheeks as he stared at the girl before him. Mumbling out softly, "O-oh, it's okay,"

Giving one last smile to the boy, wishing him luck on the exam before she took off leaving Izuku behind staring at her retreating back, his mind left a blank.

Snapping out of his trance, looking away from where the girl that had just aided him. When he felt a slap to the back of his head. Turning around quickly looking for his attacker. To find standing behind him with an evil smirk.

With a nervous smile at his best friend. "Kaachan! How long have you been standing there!"

"Long enough Romeo. Now move it or we are going to be late." He barked out, causing Izuku to finally realize where he was again. "Right, let's do this."

Both boys walked towards the school building where they found their third member of the group standing by the door dozing off.

Bakugo just walked past the boy not even bothering to give him a passing glance, only stopping inside the building looking back with a glare, already expecting Izuku to have stopped to get the others' attention.

Opening his eyes as the green-headed boy began to lightly shake him. "Hey, Izuku, is it time for the exams already?" His voice was low and full of exhaustion. Pushing off against the wall, falling into step with Izuku. Katsuki led the way to the exam room grumbling to himself that neither boy was able to make out.

Once they got checked in at the reception table outside of the examination room, the three entered into a large auditorium filled with a long-curved desk that circled half the room. Looking down towards the stage below.

Walking down the steps to the middle of the auditorium, they found a section that had three empty seats available. Izuku took a seat with Bakugo to his right glaring down at the stage, and Hitoshi to his left, already on the table, trying to sleep. Leaving Izuku to just shake his head at his friends.

After the entire auditorium was full, a man with long blond-hair spiked up. With black jacket and black pants and long black boots. A surround sound system around his neck. Walked out onto stage. Seeing the man caused Izuku to begin to mumble to himself in excitement.

The voice of the man on stage rang out loud around the whole auditorium. He wasn't even using a mic and he could make his voice heard over the entire auditorium. Hitoshi, with his eyes half closed, raised his head at the booming voice.

"Good morning future heroes! Welcome to the UA entrance exam. It's a pleasure to see so many wonderful faces turn out for the exam today." His voice boomed out across the stage full of excitement.

"Now, I know you are all excited to get to the practical part of the exam, but first we will begin with the written exam! If you will all look to your right, you will see several of my colleagues walking up the stairs handing out the test! Keep them upside down, until we tell you to begin the test!"

With that the proctors began walking up the stairs handing out the exams to all of the future want to be heroes. Once the last test was placed down and the proctors gave a signal to the blond-man up on stage he spoke up again in his same booming voice as before.

"Wonderful! Does everyone have a test?" Looking around the room confirming that everyone within the auditorium had received their test, he continued on. "Great! You will all have one and a half hours to complete this exam! Once the time is up you will place the upside down on your desk and wait for the proctors to come and collect the exam! Now begin!"

For the trio, the hour and half to complete the test was more than enough time to complete it. With them all finishing with plenty of time left to spare. With their spare time Bakugo just glared down, towards Present Mic who was still standing on stage looking around, for anyone that was attempting to cheat.

While Hitoshi was laying his head down on his desk, he was using the remaining time to take a quick nap. Izuku on the other hand, while confident with the fact that he would score high enough on his test, couldn't help but feel that he ended up choking on his test spending the remainder of the test going back and reworking, and reworking the same problems until the time was called.

"Time's up! Turn your tests over now for a proctor to come and collect!" came the same booming voice from down on stage, that ended up frightening several of the teens including Izuku to look up towards the beaming Present Mic on the stage. Quickly turning his test over.

As the proctors were going around to collect the exams Izuku used this time to look around at some of the other examiners in the room. Noticing several people sighing in defeat from the test or looking overly confident as the test concluded.

Jumping up looking back down to the stage as the booming voice of the pro hero on the stage boomed out once more. "Alright, I'm sure you all did an excellent job on the written part of the exam, but now it's time to go PLUS ULTRA on the practical part of today's examination!"

The lights in the auditorium began to dim as a white screen began to lower behind Present Mic. A projector that was hanging down off of the ceiling, clicked on, lighting up the screen with a power point presentation.

"To start off, everyone here should have received an envelope from the staff members outside of this classroom. Go ahead at this time and open it up!" Everyone in the room began to open up their envelope that they had received at the entrance to the room.

Izuku, Katsuki, and Hitoshi were staring down at the card that was inside of their envelope. On it they were labeled 'Your Hero Academia Practical Exam Card! Recipient! And a random preassigned battle number'

Izuku sighed to himself begging to mutter as he snuck a peak at his two friends' cards to see that they both had different battle arenas they will be in. "It's as I had thought, they are going to be separating us from our friends."

"Alright! Now that you have all had a chance to check your card. You will be using those cards to board your buses that will take you to your battle arena for your practical exam!" Presents Mic's voice still booming as loud as when he had entered the room.

The screen slide flipped panels to a blank page that was cut into three colored squares. "Now we will begin by going over how you will be earning points during this test!"

On the screen, a round robot with the number one which was written on the front plate of it. "This is the one pointer! When you defeat this robot, you will receive one point towards your score. It is by far the easiest one to take down."

Now another robot appeared up on screen a bit more bulkier than the first one. Also shown a bit taller than the first robot in the picture. On the front plate is the number two. "Now this is the two pointer! If you manage to defeat one of these, you will receive two points for your final score! They are the medium of the row and can be challenging to take on."

A third robot appeared on the screen. This one was much bulkier than the other two. The picture depicting it showed that it will be by far much bigger than the other two. And just like the other two robots, this one had a giant number three written on the front plate.

"This is the three pointer! And of course, if you managed to take one of these down you will receive three points towards your grand total score! But be warned contestants this is no easy feat to take one of these down!"

The screen in the back turned black, leaving the already dim room to be darker. Present Mic and the other proctors using this time to look around the examination room sizing up all of the contestants.

After sizing up the participants, Present Mic was about to continue on with his spill, but before he could get started a hand in one of the back rows raised up quickly. "Yes participant, what is your question?"

Standing up was a taller teen with short dark blue hair. Moving quite robotically as he began to ask his question, annoyance clearly falling from his voice as he spoke loudly but clearly. "What is the meaning of this? On the pamphlet that was on the school's website stated that there would be four robots! You have stated only three. This is a mistake that should not be made at a reputable school such as UA!"

Turning his head to look a bit down at the audience at a particular green-headed boy, who had been mumbling throughout the whole presentation. The annoyance at the believed mistake of the school, towards the boy, only grew more strongly as he continued on his rabbit hole. "And you with the green hair, that's been mumbling this whole time! You are distracting your fellow examinees. If you weren't going to take this seriously then you shouldn't have even come here!"

Izuku just let out a meep and a quiet apology towards the boy, embarrassed by being called out for an old habit of his that he could never seem to break. While Hitoshi just rolled his eyes in annoyance at the other teen.

Katsuki was growling under his breath, ready to explode. Only being held down by Izuku who was holding onto the sleeve of his shirt talking quickly and nervously towards his friend.

Present Mic after confirming the boy is looking back towards the stage and paying attention towards him, he began to answer his inquiry. "Right, you are sir! There is indeed another robot that you all must be on the lookout for!"

With that the screen changed again, and a picture of another robot appeared on the screen. This one had a lot more plating around it than the other three that came before it. Marked on the front plating was a giant red zero.

"This here is the zero pointer! You will not be receiving any points for defeating it. And it will be far too difficult for any of you to defeat it anyways! So, if you see it I recommend just avoiding it!"

Looking up to the teen that was still standing up bowing his head down at the teacher on stage. This time with a much calmer voice, "Thank you sir for answering my question. I apologize for interrupting." Sitting back down.

"Good now if there are any more questions-" giving one last look around the room for anyone who might have anything else, before continuing on, "Good, then you are all dismissed to go and catch your bus to your battlefield! Good luck everyone and remember everyone to go PLUS ULTERA!"

With that everyone started making their way to the exit of the building. Izuku was still trying to calm down his angry explosive friend who was mumbling how he was going to kill that four eyed freak.

It didn't take long before the three buses reached their designated battle arena. Each one was an exact replica of a city. At the front was a gate keeping the city closed off to the students.

At Izuku's battle arena he was nervously going over the battle strategy that he worked out the other day with his friends. Taking a deep breath to try and cool his nerves when he looked up, he noticed a familiar round face from early in the morning.

His eyes widened up a little upon seeing her there. Taking another nervous breath, he went to take a step forward towards her. That's when a hand gripped strongly onto his shoulder holding him back.

A voice that he recognized came running out causing Izuku to grow annoyed at. The same voice that had called him out earlier during the briefing for this exam. His voice was robotic and a matter of fact as if he was above everyone else.

"Can't you see that she is clearly trying to get focused on this exam. You might not be taking these exams seriously, but I won't allow you to mess up anyone else."

Shaking off the grip of the other teen, in his head he couldn't help but to think 'How annoying, of course he had to be at my test site," But on the outside trying to defuse the situation at hand, Izuku put his hands up in surrender, about to apologize to the other boy.

But, before he had a chance to make an apology, a familiar booming voice came bursting out of speakers nearby. The voice came out loud and clear for everyone to understand. Present Mic, over the speakers all across the three battle zones only uttered one single word. "BEGIN!"

At all three test sites every student started looking around for the voice, in confusion. The voice came booming out once again, "Come on everyone you won't receive a countdown for a real-life battle! It appears only three of you had already begun the test!"

Sure enough, looking around the three test sites, a student from each one had already taken off through the now opened gates.

Katsuki wastes no time using his explosions to blast himself into the city. Laughing like a maniac as he finds one pointer and two pointers, blasting them into little pieces. His manic smile grows as he looks back at all of the 'extras' running in after him with a look of shock as they looked on to see the carnage that was left behind from the explosive blond.

Hitoshi, upon hearing the words come from Present Mic, ran quickly into the city. Looking around to find the alley that he could take. Working to avoid the first few robots that he had encountered.

Looking around the alley looking for anything that he could use to aid him in the fight against the robots. Cussing at the proctors for using such a biased test, but thankful for Izuku and his help coming up with a strategy that he is putting his faith in to pass this final exam.

Smiling as he finally finds what he was looking for. As Izuku had predicted, tools were hidden in the back alley. Grabbing a crowbar that he found, he ran up a fire escape, calling out to the end of the alley gaining the attention of a two pointer that turned its attention towards the boy.

As it approached he climbed up the fire escape, gaining just enough height to jump onto the two pointer as it got close enough. Aiming the crowbar towards the eye of the machine, as predicted by Izuku, shattered into pieces. Pulling the bar out of its eyes destroying some necessary components causing the bot to lose balance.

Jumping back to the fire escape before it fell Hitoshi gave a bright smile, before turning nervous, "How am I going to beat enough of these to pass the exam." Becoming more nervous as he came out of the alley to find the destruction of the other students. Shaking his head 'No, I will pass this test, for All Might, for Izuku, for Bakugou who put so much faith in me, I can't fail, not now." Running down the street to find more robots.

With Izuku, as he heard the orders for Present Mic to begin, he took off from the teen who had been scolding him. Leaving everyone in the dust bewildered as the boy they were looking down on had managed to get a head start on them.

Once he entered the battle arena, calling upon his quirk with a request, "Now I need the aid of Bakugo's explosions to aid me in defeating these robots."

As quickly as he made that request, an exact clone of his friend was standing in front of Him. "But of course master all you need is to ask, an evil smirk growing on its face." The Clone took off down the road with a trail of explosions that were weaker than the original explosion but still quite powerful. Taking off in the other direction from where his duplication had run, "Alright, now to find some for myself."

Up in an office space back at UA with several tv screens lining one side of the wall. Each screen showing different angles from all three battle arenas.

In the center overlooking all of the screens was an ever grinning, small animal that looked like a mixture between a mouse, dog and bear. Having white fur and a scar that went over his right eye.

In the room sitting beside him were six other adults. Three sitting on either side of him. All watching the broadcast from the battlefield. While a buff blond-haired man, wearing his hero costume that was designed to resemble the United States.

The mouse bear thing that was sitting in the center of the group, chuckled as he watched only three students run straight into battle, "In all of these years we had this test, I think those three might just be the first ones to actually go when told to go."

The man who was sitting next to him, wearing all black, his eyes half closed, sipping on coffee. His voice was gruff, but soft. "That blond is going to be so much trouble."

Another teacher spoke up, "Look at the purple one, using his head to come up with a strategy to take out the robots. Smart."

A third spoke up, "Oh my, the green one just created a clone of one of our other participants. How very interesting is that."

"Those three are quite an interesting bunch." the leader of the group in the center spoke up. Looking over his shoulder towards the man that has been sitting quietly in the back with a bright smile. "Isn't those two your personal students All Might?" giving a knowing smirk already knowing the answer to the question.

Turning back to the monitor his smirk became quite wicked in delight as he thought of what was about to come. "My, it's about time that we release the real challenge now. What do you all think?"

After receiving a nod from all six onlookers, he pressed a red button that was on the control panel giving a sinister chuckle that caused the others to move away slightly nervous of the mouse, dog, bear thing.

Back at Izuku's training field he was running around gaining the attention of the robots he could find. Then started running away in a mock retreat. Looking back several times to make sure that they were still following him.

Looking up at the building, the blond boy that he was looking for quickly dived into a nearby alley. The blond blasted down with wicked laughter, shouting out gaining the attention of the two, two pointers and a three pointer that was chasing after the green headed boy. "You damn fools feel for the trap!"

With that several explosions came from the fist of the boy who jumped down, blasting into the bots. While not as powerful as what the real Bakugo was able to create, it was still strong enough to destroy the three bots that were chasing Izuku.

Walking out of the alley up to the clone, Good job! That is another seven points!" the smirk on the Bakugou duplicate smirked, "Of course with me at your side your victory is all but assured from these extras master.

Giving a slight awkward chuckle under his breath, "My it's weird to hear Bakugou even as a clone of him call me master-" After getting over the awkwardness, he spoke up again, "Alright get in position I'll go and find some more to lure back here."

Over at Hitoshi's battle arena he was standing over a small pile of two pointers and one pointers. "Wow, I'm already up to fifteen points." Looking over at the trap that he had set up, "I can't let Izuku and All Might down, it's thanks to them that I even got this much points."

Taking off from the destroyed robots, continuing going up and down alleyways looking for places he can lay another trap.

As he found a suitable spot to set up another trap. Tying up a small wire just after a fire escape ladder. It's a simple trap, but with how the robots work they wouldn't be able to see the wire and trip them. Allowing Hitoshi to jump down from the fire escape and quickly rip out any of the circuitry that was needed to keep the bots running.

As he finished getting setup ready, he heard crying coming from the end of the alley way. Without thinking he immediately ran down the alley towards the street where he heard the crying coming from.

At the end of the street was a small boy, with giant purple balls on his head. He was on the ground up against a building crying as he was throwing the purple balls at a three pointer that was running towards him.

As Hitoshi looked on at the boy, he started running towards the three pointer. When he noticed the three pointer seemed to get stuck in the boy's balls he started to slow down, figuring the crying boy would have it under control now. But to his shock and disbelief he was still sitting on the ground crying, still throwing his balls unaware that he had managed to get the bot stuck.

Looking back at the three pointer who was trying to break out of the sticky balls failing to do, so Hitoshi yelled out to the boy, as the three pointer began to raise its arm that had a canon attached to it

"Hey, you over there!" the crying boy looked up at the shouting tears flowing out of his eyes as he responded to him in a shaky voice- "Ye-yeah?" With that he had the boy under his mind control. "You need to get out of there now!"

Without missing a beat, the other boy got up and ran off, away from the three pointer as it fired its missile.

"Good now that he is safe, let's get this thing taken care of." Jumping up behind the bot, unexpecting of the attack, tried to move but was still unable to get stuck in the sticky balls of the boy from earlier.

Falling to the ground as Hitoshi destroyed the circuitry in the back, breathed a sigh of relief. "That was a close one." Walking over to the boy who was standing at the end of the street, looking a little confused as to what just happened. "Are you okay?" Hitoshi asked out in concern for the boy.

"Yeah, I think so? Uhm… Thank you I think?"

"That's great to hear, will I'm off, we still have a test to take." nodding his head bye to the boy as he took back off down the street.

Over in Bakugou's battle arena he was just blasting his explosion off in every direction, standing on a pile of destroyed robots. A demonic smile crossed his face as he laughed maniacally as more of the robots that came for him dropped from his explosions as if they were a shred of paper he could rip through.

It was at this time the three boys in the respective training grounds felt the ground beneath them begin to shake. Each turning to look in the direction where a loud, blaring, booming, sound had come from.

The buildings in the direction of the noise all showed signs of severe damage as roofs and even whole sides of buildings collapsed. The dust rising from the collapsing started to rush through the city.

Standing over the tallest building in the battlefield was the biggest robot that was shown off in the presentation by Present Mic. In all three sites all of the students only took a second to look on in shock, before all turning tail and running away from the skyscraper sized robot.

Back at Izuku's test site, looking at the ginormous robot, mumbling to himself, "What the heck! That thing is huge. I guess it is best if I get out of here quickly."

Turning around quickly to start running away from the bot with the rest of his fellow test takers. But before he could start running, he heard a voice coming from behind him. Turning around, to where the voice had come from, there he saw a familiar-looking girl stuck in some rubble from the crashing down buildings.

Without thinking, moving on pure instinct Izuku took off running through the crowd towards the girl. Everyone ignored his presence as he ran past them, besides for one person, the teen who had called him out earlier that day twice, looked back in shock as Izuku ran back towards the robot.

Up from one of the buildings his Bakugou duplicate that he had created jumped down, landing next to Izuku and following suit with him towards the fallen student.

Once arriving at the familiar girl who was struggling to get lift off the rubble that had fallen on her. Both Izuku and his created duplicate both started to lift a big piece of rubble off of her.

Being able to lift it just enough that she was able to wiggle herself free from the debris, looking up towards her two heroes. Wide eyed at the familiar green-headed boy that she had saved from falling at the gates.

Snapping out of her daze as she realized the green-haired boy was leaning down next to her trying to gain her attention. His voice in clear concern for her "Hey, are you okay? Can you walk? "

Her voice was shaky. "I think so, but my legs are really sore right now." Looking around trying to find the other that had aided in her rescue. Hearing a blast coming from up in the sky looking up and seeing the other one was currently in a duel against the zero pointer.

Able to use the blast from his explosions to dodge the punches from the zero pointer. Snapping back to the boy standing beside her with his arms reaching out for her.

"That's good, here let's get you to safety now-" looking back at the giant robot thinking to himself as he helped lift her up and slump over his shoulder.

'This thing is really dangerous. I can't believe they would allow this. We need to take this down, but my Bakugou duplicate isn't strong enough to take it down…. Maybe we could trip it, to bring it down, but I can't leave her behind. I need another clone to find some string and set a trap to cause that thing to fall."

While walking the girl away, without his knowledge steam started to come from his back, forming another copy of himself quickly. Taking off quickly in looking for the needed supply that would hopefully bring the zero pointer down and keep everyone safe.

The duplicate rummaging through the alleyways quickly was able to find some supplies that would hopefully be strong enough to bring down the zero pointer. Running out of the alleyway looking for a place that would be able to set up the trap.

Finding a place and quickly running through some quick math to make an estimate on how high the steel string he was able to find would need to be to take down the zero pointer. Getting everything set, he called out signaling to the Bakugou duplicate to bring the zero pointer over.

With that it started to force the zero pointer towards the trap. To be distracted by the explosive teen, it walked straight into the trap. Losing its balance falling to the ground. Both the Bakugou clone and newly created Izuku duplicate tied up the zero pointer before it had a chance to get back up, putting an end to the rampage of the zero pointer, leaving everyone in the battle arena in shock.

And with that in all three battle arenas the booming voice of Present Mic called out across the arena, "THE EXAM IS NOW OVER!" All of the remaining bots that were still roaming the streets of the mock city, including the zero pointer powered down.

A short older lady was walking down the street towards where Izuku and the girl were sitting down. Leaning up against one of the buildings. Her voice was soft and sweet as she spoke, gaining their attention. "Oh, you poor dear, let me treat you will quickly."

As the older lady came up to the two students, she gave a quick peck to the girl's forehead, causing a slight glow. Reaching out her hands "Here you two go, take some gummies to help replenish your energy."

After the pro hero that had aided them walked away from the two children to continue to help out the other examinees that needed her medical aid. Both getting up from the ground, the gravity defying girl was in shock that the pain in her legs had gone away.

Izuku and the girl started walking toward the exit when realization clicked to Izuku, "Oh! I just remembered I never got your name."

Looking over at the green haired boy "Oh! Right, my name is Uraraka, Ochako…-" trailing off a bit more awkward, "Thanks for saving me from the zero pointer, uhm"

Catching her hesitation Izuku jumped in "Midoriya, Izuku. And you don't have to thank me, but I still haven't thanked you for saving me from falling."

The now named Ochako, chuckled at the nervous quick reply of her hero. "Will I guess we are even now aren't we." She started looking around in confusion at the exit of the mock city, Izuku began to sport a blush across his cheeks.

"Hey, uh Midoriya, where is the blond boy that helped you lift the debris off of me, I would like to thank him also for rescuing me.

Before Izuku had a chance to reply to her a loud aggressive voice came yelling out from behind the two, causing them to turn around. Seeing the familiar face of the other boy who aided her she took a step forward giving a slight bow to the other boy. "Thank you for saving me!"

"Ha! It was no problem at all that debris was nothing to move!" the aggressive voice of the explosive clone blasted out.

As Uraraka looked back up with a bright smile on her, morphing into confusion as she saw the boy she had just been walking with standing next to the blond boy, looking over to see that the Green boy was still standing next to her,

Izuku was just standing there, eyes wide at the second version of him standing next to the clone of his best friend.

Snapping out of his shock as Uraraka spoke up to him, "How are there two of you?" looking back at her, showing the confusion on his face only making her more puzzled by the boy next to her.

"I'm able to make a duplicate of myself or of someone else, the better I know the other person I'm trying to make a clone of the closer my duplicate can be at resembling them. Both physically and personality wise. But…."

"Oh! That's so cool that you can make a clone of yourself! But why do you look so confused?" Came the excited reply from Ochako.

"I've only been able to make one clone before. I originally created a clone of my best friend; I don't know how there is now another clone of me here…"

Before he could trail off and start mumbling the duplicate of the green headed boy spoke up for the first. "I'm sorry, master that I don't know how you were able to make a second duplication, but I do know that I came to be, because you were desperate to find a way to take down the zero pointer."

Eyes wide, from what the duplicate of himself had just said. "So that's how the zero pointer ended up getting taken down. I thought it was weird that the Kaachan clone I had was able to defeat it alone."

A scuff came from the clone of Bakugou as he spat out in a low threatening voice, "Hey, I could take out that damned zero pointer by myself!"

The original shaking his head "Alright you two, thanks for serving your purpose so wonderfully, you are both dismissed."

Both of the clones gave a bow to the original Izuku as they quickly faded away from existence.

A month after the exams had concluded, Izuku, Bakugo, and Hitoshi were all in Izuku's bedroom. The three boys were all holding yellow envelopes that they had received in the mail that day, labeled from UA.

Bakugou wasted no time tearing into the envelope where a small metal disk fell out of the envelope landing onto the desk below. Looking on at the metal disk in slight confusion a hologram of a small creature with white fur and a scar going over his eyes.

"Hello Bakugou, what am I? Am I a dog, a mouse, a bear, more importantly… I am the principal of UA Nezu. It was an honor to watch your fight against the robots. You were able to quickly take out all of the threats against you. And with that claimed the highest villain point from this year's examinees with eighty points. To top it off with your almost perfect written test, you have easily earned your place in UA-"

With that the creature gave a slight eerie smile, "Welcome to your Hero Academia Bakugou."

With his smug smile looking over at the other two. "As if there was ever any doubt that I would've ever made it in."

"Congrats Kaachan-" came the excited reply of Izuku, meanwhile beside him came a mumbled gruffed reply of Hitoshi, "Yeah, just what the world needed a manic going to a hero school"

Twitching his eyes at the exhausted looking purple headed boy, the two began to bicker back and forth with each other.

Ignoring the two bickering friends of his, Izuku opened up his envelope having a familiar metal disk falling out onto the desk.

The hologram like for Bakugo's turned on showing once again Principal Nezu who opened up his spill with the same opening for Bakugou.

"Hello Midoriya, what am I? Am I a dog, a mouse, a bear, more importantly… I am the principal of UA Nezu. You have quite an interesting quirk to be able to make a duplicate of your friend like that. Using your duplicate to lure and ambush robots was an excellent show. You managed to get twenty-five villain points during the test! But my you didn't let the show end there no! How you rushed into danger to help out that poor girl stuck under the debris was so heroic! Not only did you manage to aid in her rescue, but with your quirk you had managed to get her to safety and take down the zero pointer making sure that everyone else stays safe. With that, I will introduce the hidden point system, The hero points given out to those who act heroically during the battle! And for you we decided to give you fifty hero points!"

Continuing on with his spell his eyes gleaming devilishly as he continued on, "Not only did you manage to perform and show off that brain of yours during the practical portion of the exam, you have shown that you are quite clever during the written portion of the exam scoring a perfect score! -"

Giving a slight bow, "Welcome Midoriya to your Hero Academia!"

A forceful clicking of tongue coming from behind Izuku frightening him out of his excitement of getting into UA, turning around quickly in his chair finding Bakugou was now standing over his shoulder.

"Pft, I could have taken out the zero pointer myself." To anyone but Izuku and Hitoshi, he might have sounded annoyed, but they could hear the proudness coming from his voice as well.

"Alright, tired eyes you are open!" Bakugo spat out as he looked over to Hitoshi who had started to open up his envelope to find the same metal disk that was inside of both Bakugou's and Izuku's envelope.

And once more, Principal Nezu showed up in the Hologram, unchanged from his opening speech that he had given to the other two in the room.

"Hello Shinso-" the three boys ignoring the rest of Principal Nezu's opening speech talking over it only paying attention once more when he got to talking about Hitoshi's test.

"Your show of planning and cunning to find a way to take down the enemy despite not having a quirk that was all suited for this type of combat just goes to show your cleverness-"

'Will if it wasn't for Izuku helping me to come up with the plans to take them out, I might not have been able to pass,' Hitoshi thought quietly to himself.

"You had managed to earn fifteen villain points during the exam. But not only that, there were also hero points that could be earned by acting heroic during the exam, and by stepping in to aid that boy who was about to be taken out, you had proven yourself heroic and had received an additional twenty hero points. And with your written portion of the exam, you had passed it in the higher percentile of the examinees."

Giving a slight bow once more, "Welcome Shinso to your hero Academia!"

With that the last hologram shut off leaving two of the three boys in the room smiling stupidly at being accepted into their dream school.

While the third one just scowled on annoyed as the other two rambled on about their expectations for the upcoming school year at UA and their excitement of making it in.

"Whatever nerds, we were always going to make it in. No damn extra could stop me from making it into the top hero school! Now if you two don't mind I'm fucking starving I'm going to go get something to eat!"
