Training Field. -
Izuku stood in front of the Battle Center gate, examining the other applicants while he waited. He has seen some interesting quirks, one guy has multiple arms with webbing between them, another had striped hair like a horn, even a kid with a lens on his waist then there is the girl from earlier, uraraka. Earlier while Izuku was heading to the Orientation, Izuku had tripped nearly fallen while walking carelessly and was saved by the charming brunette. They conversed, talking about how nervous they were before exchanging names and heading inside. Izuku had a strange feeling after that, maybe It was because he had never talked to a girl before or possibly because someone other than his mother had given him pleasant conversation. Izuku started towards her but was stopped by a firm hand grasping his shoulder.
"She looks like she's trying to focus, Are you really gonna distract her and ruin her chances to succeed?" Izuku turned to see a tall boy with Dark blue hair and stern eyes behind square rimmed glasses.
Izuku recognized him from orientation as well, he had interrupted the pro hero president mic to ask about the trial. He also annoyed Izuku after calling him out in front of everyone for exchanging jabs with Bakugou and being both distracting and disruptive to those around, especially since he had been far more disruptive than both him and Bakugou combined.
"Well what about you?" Izuku asked with a sardonic smile glaring slightly locking his eyes with the taller teen.
" ...Pardon?" asked the blunet, confusion bleeding through his stern expression. Izuku spoke with a laugh as if he had remembered a funny joke.
"Zehahaha, well what if I wasn't going to talk to her? Perhaps I was just walking closer to the gate to better prepare. I may have been thinking up a strategy and honing my focus, only to have it broken by needless conversation, as an aspiring hero you shouldn't jump to conclusions, Moreover your brash action could cause trouble and get you or someone else hurt...or Worse. Izuku emphasized that last point and watched the nuisances features slightly softened with regret for a brief instance before hardening again with a mix of anger and resolve.
" I see, Apologizes. I misread the situation and performed the very wrong I had hoped to quell." He bowed before excusing himself, walking stiff and mechanically. Izuku chuckled at his victory before making his way to the front.
Moments later the gates opened and he bolted. Izuku had trained his body and even without his darkness or sludge easily smashed his way through the robots, he kept struggling not to use his sludge quirk but still managed to gain forty-eight points before he heard a voice.
"There are no countdowns in real battles, get moving." He then saw a stampede of applicants and after earning fifteen more points he began hearing them call out their scores. Twenty-eight, forty-five and thirty-two, cried his fellow participants. As he casually smashed a three pointers head in.
"Guess I should get serious." spoke Izuku with a wicked smirk.
The UA staff watched over the candidates progress, keeping an eye out for particular talents eyeing Izuku only until they found an interesting quirk.
"there are some impressive applicants this year." The teachers were impressed by some of the candidates. While most of the teachers we enthralled by flashy quirks
Two were watching an applicant for different reasons.
"Do you notice it?" questioned Aizawa not really asking, while he watched Izuku Midoriya. All might watched silently as Izuku smashed a two pointer bringing his total to fifty-six.
He had noticed it the moment Midoriya began the exam, the quirkles boy was a monster but it was obvious the boy's holding back. Like he's fighting his muscle memory causing his movements to be slightly jerky and mildly sloppy.
"He's holding back." spoke All Might tilting his head to AIzawa keeping his gaze on Midoriya remembering might felt guilt rise in his chest as he watched the young man fight and remembered his words, the longer the boy fought the more impressed All might become. That's when he noticed it.
Over time young Midorya's movements became smoother and his strikes more precise like pieces in a puzzle. That's when Aizawa and All might realize there were tiny movements when Izuku would extend his palm inches in front of the target and it would suddenly close the gap, that's when Izuku struck, knocking its head off and earning a combined total of seventy-three points. It was so quick and well executed that to the average eye it wouldn't have been noticeable.
Slowly other heros began to notice Izuku, commenting on his technique and his score. But none seemed to notice what Aizawa and All might did...none except-
"Curious." Spoke principle nezu as he cheerfully gazed at the monitor.
"At first glance the young man seems to have a strength quirk but I noticed, he seems to be pulling his targets closer." The teachers and staff gawked in confusion as they stared at the boy tearing his way to eighty-sixth points. Some noticed it quicker than others.
"You two noticed it right." Said nezu gleaming without turning his head towards Aizawa or All wasn't a question, they thought and the affirmed Nezu's suspension.
"He's hiding his quirk, at the very least he's keeping his hand close to his chest." spoke Aizawa glancing at All Might. The symbol of peace was still gazing at the screen.
Young man, why would you ask such a question. All Might remembered when young Midorya had asked if he could become a hero, he had made himself seem quirkless but why?
All Might's mind continued to buzz with thoughts and questions as he watched, not noticing Principle Nezu talking until the button was pressed and the zero pointer was released.
Battle Center.-
Izuku had felt like he was finally getting into the groove as he smashed three more robots bringing his total from ninety-two to a clean one hundred.
"Zehahahaha that was fun and with one hundred points I've more than proven my point." Izuku's thoughts turned bitter and he felt himself shaking at the memories.
"I'd die in the exam huh, I can't be a hero without a quirk zehahaha!" Izuku began to laugh but stopped as the ground began to tremble.
Suddenly a massive test robot erupted from the ground it towered over the applicants and was bigger than the buildings.
Izuku stared at the Zero pointer thinking to himself, so that's why I should run. Izuku turned to make good on that suggestion but suddenly heard a cry for help. Izuku found the source to be Ururaka; she was pinned under rubble and couldn't escape. Izuku stared as the Zero pointer got closer and no one stopped to help. Izuku had only one thought in his mind.
...SHIT!
