I own nothing
Izuku watched on disinterested as he waited for the explanation of the rules for the physical part of the exam to be explained.The theory was not as challenging as the boy had expected,Considering that Nezu himself had taken part in creating it.
As the Physical part of the exam was being explained Izuku placed his head down on the table ahead of him.
He had already read through the sheet of paper on the desk and didn't feel as though he needed another explanation from Present Mic.
Izuku felt the eyes of Katsuki Bakugo searing into the back of his head.He considered looking up for a moment but didn't get a chance to.He heard someone stand from their seat and begin shouting.
"Sir, You have yet to explain the importance of the last robot on the sheet.I'm not sure if this was a mistake on your behalf, But I would expect better from a Professional hero teaching at a prestigious school such as U.A." The boy took a pause and Izuku let out a sigh that was cut short as the boy began talking again."You, The boy with green hair."He stopped speaking again as if waiting for Izuku to raise his head off the desk.Izuku lifted his head lazily and moved his head in the boy's direction to indicate he was listening."You've had your head down on the desk for most of the time we have been in this room. If you think you can just sleep here instead of paying attention then perhaps you shouldn't be here."
The Boy looked as though he was going to continue scolding Izuku but was cut off by a cold gaze from the greenette.Izuku inwardly sighed as he thought about whether to respond to the boy.He could tell that the boy was related to the Iida family due to the boy's striking resemblance to his pro hero brother Ingenium.Izuku's decision was eventually decided when he remembered that he had decided to not let anyone push him around now that he officially had a registered quirk.
Present Mic looked as if he was going to say something to attempt to defuse the situation but was cut off by Izuku.
"If you had been more patient, perhaps you would have realised that the information about the extra robot was about to be explained before you began speaking.You also could have read the Information on the paper in front of you to find out the information that you wished to know instead of interrupting the explanation and wasting people's time."Just when everyone had thought Izuku had finished,He continued to speak.
"If you wish to question my place here then perhaps you should question your own."He turned to glance at Bakugo and smiled mockingly."Being rash isn't the ideal makings of a hero."He turned back to the Iida boy before anyone other than Bakugo could realise that he had looked away."Lacking common sense isn't a good trait for a hero to have either."
Having said all he felt he needed to Izuku placed his head back on the desk to hide the smirk he had at Bakugo's irritation.The Iida boy soon sat down in embarrassment allowing for present mic to continue explaining.
Izuku already knew the purpose of the last robot. It was used to cause a distraction for the other students.He also theorised that with the supposed size of the robot it would cause damage to any surrounding objects.Izuku thought that it could be used to his advantage,all he needed to do was allow students to get in danger and save them.He knew that the test would have a secret factor to do with heroics but he wasn't completely certain what it was.
While Present Mic was talking Izuku noticed small pieces of paper being passed around.The sheets of paper were labelled as either Fake city-A or Fake city-B.Izuku's sheet of paper was for Fake city-B, which was were he was guessing the test would be held.He wondered whether their was two places was because of the sheer number of applicants or as a way to keep the process as fair as possible.
He dismissed his thoughts as he noticed the other applicants were now leaving.He headed out to hopefully find his test point.
Izuku was waiting patiently for the test to begin.He had belief that he would pass it ease but he still had some nerves.Izuku wouldn't put it past Nezu to amplify the difficulty of the test solely for him.
Izuku began bouncing on his heels and warming up as a way to clear the thoughts from his head.There was no reason to worry at this point in time.He was one hundred percent certain that not a single living entity had the capabilities to stop him,With the sole exception of All For One obviously.He wasn't stupid enough to believe he was on the level of that monster,But he would be.
(Flashback)
[10 Days Earlier]
Izuku was awoken by the sound of his phone vibrating against his bedside table.He groggily leaned over and checked his phone.He had a new message from Doctor Ujiko telling him to visit him ASAP.
The greenette groaned and rolled out of bed.He was thankful that Allmight allowed him to have a rest day today so that he could prepare for the harsh training he was going to undertake before the U.A Entrance Exam.
He decided to have a quick shower before getting changed and leaving.He rushed down to see the doctor in an attempt to speed things up so that he could get it out of the way and enjoy the rest of the day in peace.
He finally arrived as he stood before the doctor while breathing slightly heavier than normal,The train didn't arrive so he had to run all the way there.
He spent a moment catching his breath before he sat down in the Chair opposite the doctor.
"What was so important that you decided to wake me up this early in the morning."Izuku spoke impatiently as the lack of sleep was starting to catch up to him.
The doctor smirked at the boy in front of him before chuckling."He finally agreed to see you."The doctor gave a dramatic pause to allow the information to sink in,He then continued before the boy could say anything in response."He had some free time on his hands and said that as long as you follow some of his conditions,He will grant your request."
Izuku gave him a skeptical look.
Ujiko chuckled again before standing and beckoning the boy to follow."He will elaborate when you meet with him later today."
The boy looked at the man in surprise."Does that mean he's going to meet with me in person?"Ujiko laughed at the boy's eagerness before nodding."His body has finished healing enough for him to move outside of his base."He said."You will be meeting him in an abandoned building on the outskirts of the city.
Reluctantly Izuku stood up and followed the Doctor
The two sat in a car as the Doctor drove in silence.Izuku Looked out of the window with a bored expression on his face.
They were in one of the poorer areas of the country at this point of time.After the rise of Quirks and superheroes it became common for those not as gifted to not have the same luxuries.
In recent years those without homelessness had became a problem for the Quirkless population.in reaction to this those without a home would come to this area and share the abandoned buildings.If you were to enter these buildings you would find at least eight people in each room.
Izuku was thankful that his mother had left a lot of money for his future before the accident,otherwise he would have ended up like all the homeless people around him.
He would do his best to help these people when he became a hero.
The car stopped,Pulling the boy from his thoughts and bringing his attention to the building in front of him.
He stepped out of the car and gave an analytical glance to the building in front of him.It was very clearly old,The walls looked like they would crumble at any moment and the only windows were holes in the wall from where the building had been damaged.
He gave a suspicious glance towards Doctor Ujiko.
"Do you think he will kill me if I don't agree to his conditions."Izuku wasn't stupid.He had heard about how insane the man known as All For One was.All For One was someone so incredibly strong he managed to push Allmight to his limits and lived to tell the tale.
If the story that Allmight told him was true then he had killed his own brother.
Ujiko Laughed."It's definitely a possibility."He pulled out a flask from his pocket and took a swig.
"It's also possible that he kills you either way."He placed the closed flask back into his pocket."Death is always a likely inconvenience when dealing with All for one, it is something you come to understand quite quickly when dealing with it."He said simply.
Ujiko was enjoying the strange expression on Izuku's face.The strange mix of fear and respect looked out of place on the usually confident and spiteful boy.
The doctor's amusement didn't last long as the unusual facial expression was soon replaced by an apathetic mask of false confidence.Ujiko chuckled as he began walking towards the building, with Midoriya following behind him.
"is Something Funny?"He pushed the fear to the back of his mind and decided that he didn't trust Ujiko's smug sounding chuckle.
The man tilted his head to the side as his pace slowed slightly."For a brief moment,The expression of your face made me believe you were human."
They walked inside the building in complete silence.
Izuku was surprised at how well furnished the inside of the building was considering the state the outside of the building was in.
He sat down on a chair in the corner of the room.
After a few moments of irritating silence, Footsteps could be heard from the other room.He leaned forward in anticipation and moved his hands to his lap.
A man in a suit came from around the corner.His face was made up of scar tissue extending from his upper lip and covering his entire head to the back of his neck, As he saw from the the side view he got as the man walked to the chair in the opposite corner to the one Izuku was sat in.The man's eye socket's were visible through the tissue, but there was no other facial features there.The man's eyes,ears and nose all didn't exist.
Izuku Immediately understood that the man stood in front of him was the one they called All for One.His smile seemed off-putting and the strength he portrayed in just the way he was sitting was alarming.
Izuku could feel his Quirk's scream for activation in his body.His hand felt searingly hot as he held his wrist in an attempt to reduce the pain in the right side of his body.
The man chuckled at the sight and leaned back In his seat.He turned to look at Doctor Ujiko and saw him stood against the wall farthest from both of them, taking a swig from his flask.
All for one greeted the doctor before turning his attention towards the boy.
"I'm a busy man Izuku Midoriya, So I will keep this as short as possible."The man placed a hand on the arm of the chair before standing and moving towards the Cabinet leaning against the wall he was sat next to.He brushed off some dust before speaking again."It's my understanding that you wish to add to your of Quirks with my help."He turned his head to the boy who nodded slowly as if he felt like he was going to spontaneously combust if he disagreed with anything the man said.
Izuku could tell that the man's pleasantries were not as genuine as they appeared.
The man sighed and moved back to his seat.He sat down and Izuku could immediately see the change in his body language.The fake kind smile on his face was replaced by a serious frown, which was hard to tell because of his lack of facial features.
"There is a war coming."He paused to let it sink in. "This battle between heroes and villains has been building for a long time now.It seems that the tension has grown to the highest point it has been at for a very long time."He sighed.
"What does this have to do with your conditions for our agreement."He asked.
"I want your support for this oncoming war."He said, getting straight to the point."With your help we would be unstoppable."He laughed as he imagined it.
Izuku didn't have to think about his answer.
"No."All For One laughed once more, as if he already knew the answer the boy was going to give.Ujiko gave him a strange look and awkwardly stared at him for a moment.Izuku felt the urge to explain his answer.
"I made a promise a long time ago, and I refuse to go back on in.The heroes of this world may be corrupt, but don't think that just because I don't wish to side with them that you are my only option." He saw the amused look on the face of the man in front of him and continued."I will save this world on my own.I alone shall bear the burden of saving the world, I alone will be their hero."
"You are one fifteen year old boy.Your Quirk may have awoken when you were seven but you never found out how to activate your Quirk until you were ten."All for One couldn't contain his amusement and smiled, which in Izuku's opinion looked bloodthirsty. "What can one fifteen year old boy, that has had half the experience with his Quirk as the rest of the children his age, do in a war of this ferocity."
"If I have too I will convert people to my way of thinking.I will convince them that what I am doing is the right thing to do.No matter what I will find a way to save these people from themselves."
All For One stood and moved to the door.He stopped and turned to face the boy one final time before he left."I have great expectations for you Izuku Midoriya.Do not disappoint me."
He turned once again, this time to face Ujiko.
"Tomorrow morning we'll be headed to America."He didn't elaborate anything more before leaving.
Izuku let out a breath he didn't know he was holding.
He felt so powerless throughout that entire conversation, so much so that even after the man left the feeling lingered for a moment.
The boy's hands glowed blue and the cabinet was lit on fire.
He never wanted to feel like this ever again.
Izuku smashed a 1 pointer robot with One for All at eight percent.
In the opening few minutes since the test had started he had managed to gather just under twenty points from destroying similar robots.
Izuku had guessed that the test had a hidden point system for saving people.With the time he had spent around Nezu he knew that he would do something like this to test a hero's common sense, as well as their want and willingness to help those in need.
Izuku would have thought it to be strange if a test for heroes in training to not involve saving and helping others.
His attention was taken when a melted robotic corpse touched his foot. A girl with pink skin and horns shouted an apology before running off.
Izuku decided to use this as an opportunity to scout out his potential future classmates.
A bird like boy had taken out two one point robots with his Quirk, Which seemed to be a sentient shadow creature.
There was also a boy, who Izuku thought looked like an off-brand Spider-Man,that was incapacitating robots by wrapping them in tape that came from his elbows.He also attempted to swing from building to building like spider-Man but failed miserably, much to Izuku's amusement.
Izuku was distracted once again.
A boy with blonde hair had been surrounded by one and two pointer robots in front of Izuku.The boy looked as if he was looking for an opening to escape, but from the look on his face he was having no luck.
Izuku dashed forward towards one of the one pointer robots. He activated stockpiling,which gave him enough strength to jump above the robot.
As he was falling he placed a hand on the robot's head and set it on fire.He used the hand on the robot to push off and flip beside one of the two pointer robots.
He grabbed the robot's long neck and activated discharge.His hand glowed bright blue and blue electricity sparked around the robot's body.
The robot was quickly overcharged and blew up, but not before Izuku teleported right met to the blonde boy to avoid the small blast.
The boy thanked Izuku and patted him on the back. The boy's hand suddenly produced blue electricity that quickly overcharged the last of the robots behind them.
He winced in pain and held the arm that the electricity came from.The pain only seemed to last a couple of seconds before he shook it off and smiled again.
Izuku guessed that the boy must of had some sort of copy Quirk from the way the boy's electricity looked exactly like his.Both Quirks seemed to have the same drawback as well.
He put the Idea to the back of his mind and reminded himself of his need for extra points.
They nodded at each other before going of in different directions to obtain more points.
A few moments had passed and Izuku could feel the ground shaking.
Izuku had been expecting Nezu to throw in something that would make things more challenging for the rest of the participants.He guessed that whatever was making all that noise had something to do with Nezu and his strange amusement at the suffering and struggles of humans.
A building in the distance crumbled leaving debris all around the floor and Izuku saw the boy with engines on his legs from earlier dash past him.
Izuku caught a glimpse of the Zero pointer robot.The robot looked like a tank and more than triple the size of the other robots.
Izuku began to question the safety of himself and all the future heroes in training if Nezu was going to let robots like this run around.
He dashed to the area he last saw the zero pointer robot in as he expected there to be people to help for extra points.
He also passed another student that he felt could be a future classmate of his, She was detaching her body parts and attacking the robot with them from multiple angles, but he ignored her in an attempt to get to the area the Zero pointer robot was last spotted.
When he got there he was proven right when he saw a girl stuck under the rubble.He was about to help her when he realised that by the time he reached her they both would have been crushed by the tank-like robot.
He cursed under his breath and quickly brainstormed for ideas.He cursed again when he realised that the best idea he could come up with on such short notice was to attempt to stop the robot.
Looking back at it he realised it was a stupid idea and that their were better ways to deal with the situation then what he did, like using his new super speed Quirk from Doctor Ujiko ,but this was all his panic filled mind could think of.
He focused his mind and thought back to the training he had undergone with Nezu to fuse two or more Quirks into one ball of energy.
He focused his mind while simultaneously activating his Discharge and Pyrokinesis Quirks.He pictured the image of the ball of energy spinning in his hands before activating his teleportation ability to get to eye level with the robot.
He once again pictured Nejire's Wave Motion Quirk and fired the ball of energy at the Zero Pointer robot. It took a few seconds before the ball made contact but when he did the result pleased him.
The ball of energy collided with the robot's head and left an indentation in it. There were cracks running down the robot's body. They widened just before the robot combusted.
Thankfully Izuku had already lost enough altitude to narrowly avoid being hit by the blast from the explosion.
He fought to stay awake after using the blast of energy but he could feel himself drifting. He stayed awake long enough to see that the girl he was trying to help had escaped from the debris.
He sighed with relief and slipped into unconsciousness.
A girl with Vine-like hair looked on as he fell. The voice in the back of her head told her that he was the one they were looking for.
A few days had passed since the UA entrance exam and Izuku Midoriya was feeling restless.
After the exam had ended he found himself in the hospital room in UA, a fairly common sight for the boy considering he was there a lot after training.
Apparently the girl he had saved had managed to save him with her Quirk. Her name was Ochako Ururaka and her Quirk was called Zero Gravity.She hade given Izuku a detailed explanation of the Quirk's capabilities and weaknesses when he had asked. He obviously took the chance to write about it in his notebook, as well as copy the Quirk to use it for himself.
He was glad that she was harm free and she thanked him relentlessly for his help. It made Izuku happy that he had managed to save someone, It meant that he was one step closer to accomplishing their dream of becoming a pro hero.
Apparently the girl hadn't left his bed in the UA hospital room since Recovery Girl had put him there. He had thanked both of them for their help before he left.
Izuku heard the door and headed out of his room.
He found a letter from UA on the carpet in the hallway.
He had been accepted.
Apparently he had aced the written exam, which Nezu was exceptionally pleased with.
Not only that he had finished with the highest score on the physical exam as well. He had finished with a grand total of 27 villain points and 68 rescue points.
That gave the boy a score of 95 points in total. Second place was Katsuki Bakugo With 77 villain points and no rescue points, Izuku couldn't help the sadistic glee at being above the arrogant, volatile teen.
As soon as Izuku got had heard that he had passed a part of his body and soul felt like it wanted to cry tears of joy. All the joy and excitement had died down and now the green haired teen felt the urge to have a nap.
He decided to go on his daily run to attempt to keep himself awake. He searched for his Workout clothes and began his 10KM run.
It took him a bit longer than usual to finish his run because of his exhaustion. Instead of his usual half an hour he finished in an hour and he was slightly out of breath.
He took a guess that his over exertion from the days prior had caused him to suffer from fatigue, It didn't help that Recovery Girl's Quirk drained him of his energy.
He leaned up against the wall next to him and took a breath. Apparently his use of his energy ball technique had caused damage to his hands, Recovery Girl said that his hands were burnt to a crisp.
Izuku felt something watching him.
He looked up and saw a girl with Green, vine-looking hair staring at him. He saw this girl at the entrance exam, she was there when he had destroyed the Zero pointer robot and had nearly fell to his death.
He attempted to ask her what she wanted but she cut him off before he even got a chance to get a word out.
"We need to talk Izuku Midoriya."
