Chapter 3: Training Time
Get Ready for the Test
Izuku ran as fast as he could to the beach. He didn't want to disappoint All Might; the hero was taking and dedicating effort to train him, so it would really rude to at least not be there on time. The boy looked at his watch and saw it was 5:50.
Two minutes later, he was on the beach panting for his breath, when he heard a voice from behind him laughing, "There, you are my boy. I hope you didn't wait too long for me to arrive."
Izuku shook his head as he said, "No All Might, I got here just a minute ago." He then looked around and saw the beach of garbage from the shoreside even to the water. He scratched his head as he said, "Is there a reason why you picked this location among all places there is?"
The man laughed a little as he said, "Perceptive as ever young Midoriya, I picked this place because you are going to clean it up, and return it to its formal glory."
Izuku looked around, and asked, "But why; I mean can't we use some of the gyms in your agency? It seems more efficient this way." The boy finished as he thought about training at All Might's hero agency; it was a dream go true. It was really awesome to think his idol training him at his agency.
All Might continued to smile, as he said, "Well my boy, people these days tend to forget that heroes were, and still are public servants, so that means they must serve the public above all others; that's why you will be cleaning this beach as a public service, and it would be also considered as training to grow your muscles given that there is trash of all sizes, and shapes here." The hero then grabbed the boy's arms, and said, "I mean look at those thin arms; do they seem like the arms of a hero to you?"
The boy nodded his head as he agreed with All Might. He spent so much time in the past hoping to gain power that he forgot to train to be a hero. At that moment he heard Discord say, "You did, didn't you?"
The boy mentally scoffed as he said, "Yeah, now shut up you cheap circus freak wannabe."
The ex-lord of chaos laughed as he said, "You crack me up, my boy. Who knew that all under this politeness you tend to project, there is a child who looks to talk back."
Izuku then lowered and said nothing, as he felt All Might poking him. he then looked at the hero who said, "Are you alright, young Midoriya? You seem to have zoned out for a moment."
The boy chuckled nervously, as he weighed his options; should he tell All Might about discord? Or should he keep it a secret? But if he told him, then the hero could find a way to help him use his power safely, and train him.
He was cut from his line of thoughts as the hero then asked, "There is also one more thing, young Midoriya." The boy looked at him and the hero asked, "What is your quirk exactly. I need to know, so I can add training to my plans. That way you can build up muscles and train your quirk at the same time."
The boy then said, "Well, my quirk you can call it um… 'chaos'."
The hero looked t him, and said, "Can you explain it further?"
Discord then said, "Let me explain it. I know it more than you do." The boy wondered how, but Discord answered, "Even though I'm considered powerless, I still can affect my surroundings, and one of them is appearing on the surface of the water." The boy panicked as he thought about telling All Might the truth of his powers, but Discord said, "They're going to know one way, or the other so stop panicking and take a deep breath."
The boy took a deep breath and looked at All Might saying, "Look All Might, I can't explain it myself, but I know someone who can. So can you please follow me." the boy walked toward the water as the hero followed him intrigued.
When they stopped in front of the sea, the hero asked, "Where is that person who can explain…" the hero then saw the young man pointing to the water, and when his eyes landed on it he saw a figure which looked like a combination of many animals. He then said, "Is that him?"
The boy then said, "Sadly, yes"
The hero then looked at the figure, and said, "Hi"
Discord then said, "Hi yourself." He then dismembered himself as he stretched his body, and said, "I bet you have a lot of questions; mostly who I am, what is this quirk that the boy has, and how does it work?"
The hero nodded his head, as the ex-lord of chaos said, "Well for starters, I'm called Discord the lord of chaos, or ex-lord for that matter…" before the hero can ask him what he means, or how he can hear him talk in the first place, "I'm going to show you a small video that explains who I am, and how I ended here."
A projector then appeared in the water, and a film rolled showing Discord's entire history. When it finished the hero said, "You tried to take over his body." This caused Izuku to say, "That's what I said when he showed me it last night."
The hero then added, "You're a villain."
"Ex-villain" Discord retorted, "And I think we're past this point where I have to say t was a rebellious phase of mine. I mean come on; everyone has them."
The hero sweat-dropped as he thought that most rebellious phases don't include taking over a kingdom, but then again he is from another world.
Discord then said, "Drop the transformation. I know you can barely hold it."
The hero chuckled awkwardly as he turned into his smaller form, and then said, "This was enlightening to know about your history, Discord, but I have to ask what is chaos and who can I help young Izuku train in it."
The being of chaos then hummed as he said, "No need for your help in the training per se, but you can make a schedule, so my training with his powers won't cross yours with his body." And before the hero can object, "I mean I did have these powers for hundreds if not thousands of years."
The hero nodded understanding what he meant, but then asked another question, "How can he access it? I mean how does it work in the first place."
The hero then saw Izuku deflate as he said, "To access chaos, I have to collect chaos energy, but to do that I have to take from places that chaos exists in; in other words, wherever there is a crime, I can power up."
The hero understood why the boy was down, but then buffed up saying, "Young Midoriya, while the way to collect said energy seems wrong, you are ignoring a very important thing." The boy looked at him wondering what did he miss as the hero explained, "Your powers allow you to detect where chaos energy exists correct, but that means that you can feel when crimes happen, so it means that you can go there before any pro, therefore, helping many people as possible."
The boy thought about what All Might said and smiled. he was right; since he can feel chaos energy that means he can know where the crime is happening, so he can go there and help. Discord meanwhile gave a thumbs up to All Might for helping the crybaby get over himself.
The hero then deflated as he said, "Young Midoriya, why don't you start collecting trash while I talk with Discord about you're training." The boy then stood up and began to collect trash while the hero talked with Discord. Half an hour late, Discord yelled in his head, "We're finished."
The boy then ran over to All Might who was brandishing a huge manual, as he said, "Look here young Midoriya, from now on this will be your training program, and don't worry everything will be included." The hero then gave him the manual as the boy read it, and to say he was shocked would be an understatement. The manual included everything from training with the hero to Discord, and even his sleep and food.
"Wow, it's so detailed," Izuku said in astonishment.
The hero chuckled a little, as he said, "Well thank you, young Midoriya. I like to call 'The American Training program to become a hero'; now on today you'll start with meditation, and trying to activate your 'quirk' so to speak, while I work the finer details in the plan."
Izuku nodded his head, as he sat down, and tried to meditate with Discord's help, while All Might sat and read his plans.
Three weeks later, the boy have managed to start cleaning the beach and was making slow progress in growing his muscles, but he wasn't getting any closer to grabbing chaos energy. Even though he felt, he had no idea how to grab it.
He was thrown out of his meditation as he asked, "Discord, are you sure I'm not doing wrong?"
The chaos being sighed as he answered, "For the hundred times, you're doing it right, but you can't force it into your body."
The boy frowned as he asked, "What do you mean?"
"I mean you need to feel it. It has to come to you. Chaos is a tricky substance. It's a primal element of this world; you can't force something so primal to come to you, you have to feel it then it will be collected."
The boy then started to meditate again, as he tried to feel the chaotic energy. He cleared his mind and took a deep breath. He then began to feel it like he always did, but instead of forcing it into his body; he allowed it to naturally move around him. Moments later, he felt it. His body was being energized, so he opened his eyes, and saw chaotic energy swirling between his hands and entering his body. He looked at Discord, and cheered, "I did it. I really did it."
The chaos being chuckled at him, as he said, "Yeah, you did; at least for a moment there." He said as he pointed to the boy. The boy then looked and saw it all had disappeared causing him to frown.
"Don't feel bad, it will take you another week, or so before you have the hang of it." He then looked at his clock as he said, "Now start running, and just like I told you to try to feel it." The boy then began to run as he tried to feel chaos energy, but he was happy he was able to make at least some progress.
Another three weeks went by, and by that time Izuku grabbed the concept of harvesting chaos energy and was getting better at it. He began to help All Might with his hero work by sensing where the crime is happening and telling the location.
The hero would often joke about Izuku being his own personal crime alarm to which the boy felt honored and cried a river making both Discord and All Might wonder if he had some type of water-crying quirk that was unknown.
Now, Izuku was currently lifting some pile of trash that each weighed 10 kilos by himself, and Discord then appeared in mind as he said, "I'm proud of you, mini-lord of chaos. You came to a long boy from the little whiny boy I first tried to possess, but now you're going to become your own hero." He then wiped a tear, "It's so moving."
Izuku then quirked an eyebrow at him but shrugged as he said, "Well, I want to become a hero, so I can't afford to sleep on it like I used to do. I have to keep working to achieve my goal."
Discord then clamped his hands as he said, "Bravo, bravo. I'm so moved right now, but I have some news that will make you a happy bunny boy."
'Bunny Boy' Izuku thought as the ex-lord chuckled at him. he then cleared his throat as he said, "I know deem you worthy enough to start power training."
The boy's smile brightened as he began to jump and down saying, "I can't wait to start training. I don't know what to do first; hmm maybe reality manipulation, or shapeshifting, or maybe I can…"
He was cut from his thought when a loud blow horn echoed in his head as Discord said, "Like hell, I'm going to allow to start with something like reality manipulation. I don't know about you, but I prefer living, or whatever my condition is considered here." The boy shook his head as he continued talking, "We'll start with four simple things telekinesis, flight, telepathy, and teleportation. This is your chaos energy application beginners course. Reality manipulation is something that you won't take even after the exams. You will only take it when I deem you fit, got it?"
Izuku then saluted him saying, "Sir, yes sir."
"Alright then, let's begin with telekinesis, and do try not to nerd out." Discord said as Izuku then began focusing on a small piece of trash, but he ended up falling to the ground after five minutes. He looked at Discord who was right in front of him, but only he can see him as he said, "This is hopeless."
"Stand up, you crybaby." Discord said, "You can't just give up. Look telekinesis is like a string. You need to visualize the thing you try and catch it with to actually handle it." He then looked at a small discarded bottle as he said, "Now, try again."
For the next half hour, the boy tried to activate telekinesis, but he always failed. So he said, "I don't think I got it right." He then took a thinking position as he thought about what Discord told him, and began muttering, "Well, I need to use telekinesis, but I can't. Discord compared to a string wrapped around the item, but I can't seem how to do it…" the boy then went into a mutter storm, but an idea popped into his head.
He then looked at a small bottle, visualized some chaos energy he had stored from his previous training, and made it into a fine string. He took a deep breath, sent said string to the bottle, and tied it around the item. He then lifted it for a few seconds before it fell to the ground when he lost concentration.
He smiled at himself as he looked to the now sunbathing ex-lord of chaos who gave him a thumbs up.
The boy then heard a huge crashing sound behind. He looked to see All Might had arrived here. The boy smiled at the hero as he greeted him saying, "Hey there, All Might."
The hero deflated into his small form as he talked back, "Hey there young Midoriya. How is training going? I hope that I didn't irrupt something."
The boy shook his head as he said, "Not really, I just figured out how to control telekinesis. I'm still far away from mastering it. I hope I get good at it before the entrance exam."
The hero patted his back as he said, "Don't fret young Midoriya. I am sure you can master your power before the entrance exam. Keep working hard, and I'm sure you'll make a perfect candidate for the hero course. They would be blind not to see the hero in you."
"Thanks All Might. I just hope that I master the many powers I have before the entrance exam. I mean there's so many to choose from, and I don't have too much time." He said catching the hero's interest as he didn't know what type of power chaos came with.
Discord then yelled from the side, "Keep training, and you'll get there. Now go back to it, and start trying to lengthen the time where you hold something with your telekinesis."
All Might then rubbed his chin as he said, "Young Midoriya, I never asked, but how many powers do you have? Discord wasn't very obvious when he talked about them. He only said that I'm on a need-to-know basis."
"Well, there are many, and I can't count them here…" the boy said as he scratched the back of his head, "But to make my point clear right now, I'm training on the weakest skills as Discord call them which are telepathy, telekinesis, flight, and teleportation. I really need to get back to working on my telekinesis, so bye All Might."
The hero smiled a little, but he couldn't help but shiver a little as he remembered his old nemesis who had multiple abilities, and if he didn't know any better, he would ask young Midoriya if he ever heard of him, but after talking to the ex-lord of chaos himself. He couldn't actually say that the boy was lying.
The boy then went to a bottle, visualized the string around the bottle, and lifted it. The boy then slowly walked to the trashcan on the sidewalk of the beach and threw it in it. He smiled at his work and went back to working with his powers. He then tried to lift a T.V., but Discord smacked him on the head as he yelled, "Did you lose your marbles. You can't just upgrade like that? You need to work from the down up. Start up slowly, don't try to stress yourself, or you'll lose control."
The boy frowned as he said, "I was just going 'Plus Ultra'. I mean how can I get stronger, if I don't push my limits."
Discord then said, "There's a difference between pushing your limits, and going to an early grave."
"What's the difference?" the boy asked making the being of chaos facepalm, but he then said, "The difference is that while the first you push your limits to a reasonable degree, the second is you put your health in danger. This skill needs to be sharpened at least for a week before you begin to lift things like T.V. or anything its size. Don't forget your body needs some rest. So next you try to go 'Plus Ultra', go at it at a reasonable pace."
The boy nodded his head as he went back to lifting stuff, so he then tried lifting a broken toy to which Discord nodded his head, and gave him a thumbs up. The boy then began doing a similar thing with objects the size or close to a weight of a bottle.
Meanwhile, All Might was watching him, as he was still thinking about the previous subject. Could this be some sort of trick by his nemesis? But the person in question died years ago. He then shook his head as he saw that he was trying to picture the boy as his enemy.
Even though he had the conservation with Discord, he can't be blamed if he was a little paranoid. The guy in question practically was a monster who lived on making people's lives miserable. He was someone who needed to be erased from the face of existence or else he would cause so much harm to the world in ways no one would see.
He then smiled as the boy lift a small hair brush, put it inside a bag he was using, and go back to work. He then stopped as the hero approached and said, "Young Midoriya, so what will you do now that you have telekinesis? Will you keep moving forward, or will you stop here?"
"No, I won't stop. I want to excel." The boy said with determination in his eyes.
"That's the spirit my boy. Now, let's go lift some weights, and you can use your telekinesis to help al it a bit so you can increase your weight limit." The hero said as he buffed up to his strong form.
The boy then went to a bar, and All Might then put two weights from it, and said, "Young Midoriya, this is a weight you can lift under normal circumstances, but now I want you to try, and lift it with your telekinesis. And I will help if anything goes wrong."
The boy looked at him and said, "All right, All Might. I'll try to do that."
The boy then went to the bench, sat at it with All Might over his head, and watched him with his ever-present smile saying, "Don't worry Young Midoriya, I'm here for you, and I'll keep you safe."
The boy nodded his head, and said, "Alright, here's go nothing." The boy said as he lifted the weight, focused his telekinesis, and then let it down and began to do it again till he did about twenty lifts, and gave up.
The boy then sat up and drank some water, as he saw All Might giving him a thumbs-up and Discord now swimming, so he said, "This is going to be a long journey."
5 months later, Izuku was now proficient to an extent with his telekinesis, flight, teleportation, telepathy, and a couple more skills. He began last week to master gesturify, and today he was working with Discord on Shape-shifting.
The boy heard the chaos lord saying, "Come on, put your back into it. Turn into a bunny."
The boy then mumbled something under his breath earning a smack on his head by Discord as he said, "Don't complain. I told you that shape-shifting isn't going to be easy. I told you that since you mastered the easier skills, we'll be going into more challenging skills. I mean you did well with bubble prisons and other easy stuff. Now, I want to see your skills in shape-shifting. Don't forget that it needs more chaos energy, and in a fight, you can't just drain yourself. The transformation is easy enough, and even you know that, but your problem is saving energy, isn't it?"
The boy nodded as he tried one more time to turn into a bunny. The boy then found himself collecting chaos energy from the world around him, and storing it in his body, and then took a deep breath. A moment later, he opened his eyes and saw that he was looking at everything from another perspective.
Discord then summoned a mirror, and made the boy look at himself. He was now a small bunny with green and black hair and huge green eyes. The bunny then transformed back into Izuku and took a deep breath as he fell back.
Izuku then said, "Man, that was tiring. I really thought that I was going to pass out."
Discord then said, "Good, but now we're going to increase the size of your shape-shifting, and use it to haul whatever lift from the trash that is present on the beach."
The boy nodded his head, as he sat down to relax a little, but then he felt something in the air. I was a disturbance in the air, and it was near him. It wasn't a crime, but Discord said that sometimes chaos could range from horrible things and small causal stuff.
He stood up and went walking to the side of the beach, and in front of him, he saw a girl that was the reason for the chaos he sensed.
The girl was looking around in confusion. Izuku couldn't help, but blushed seeing her. The girl was really cute. She was a medium-height girl with hoofed feet. She had long blond hair and a small blond tail. She had big round eyes which are colored a Prussian blue. She also had big ivory-colored horns which Izuku surmised must be related to her quirk.
The girl looked at him and shrieked a little as he approached her.
The boy then lifted his hands, and said, "I don't mean any harm. Please don't be afraid."
The girl then said, "Me not good at Japanese. Me not from here. I come from America." The girl spoke in broken Japanese alerting him to the fact that she's a foreigner, and that she most likely speaks English.
The boy then cleared his throat as he said in English, "Well, hello there my name is Izuku Midoriya."
The girl then brightened immediately, as she began jumping up and down with happiness making the boy's heart flutter from how cute she is. She then said, "You can speak English."
The boy smiled, "Yes, I can."
"Can you please help me out? I'm new in Japan, and I don't know anyone here. I really want to see more of the city, but my caretaker is always busy with her work, and she can't take me out." The girl explained, before gasping as she added, "How rude of me, my name is Pony Tsunotori. Nice to meet you, Midoriya, right?"
The boy then nodded his head as he said, "Of course, I can, but let me ask my trainer if I can leave today."
The boy then grabbed his phone and texted All Might explaining what happened with him, and the hero replied with a positive saying that the boy had already cleaned more than half of the beach, so he can take the day off, and help Tsunotori around the city.
The boy then said, "I got permission, so let's walk around."
The girl nodded quickly, as she walked beside him as they walked from the beach to the city, but Izuku then apologized, "I'm sorry if I smell a little, but I was working really hard on the beach with my powers. I really want to make it into the hero course in UA."
The girl then smiled at him, and said with happiness, "I also want to go into UA. I came here to go there."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I'm an exchange student."
"Which course are you in?"
"Hero."
The boy then brightened immediately as he began to mutter, "Really, so what is your quirk? I mean it must be really strong if you want to enter the hero course."
The girl then said, "Yeah, my quirk is named horn cannon. I can launch the horns on my head to hit targets. I can also control 4 horns with telekinesis at once. I can also use them for flight. It is really cool. What about you, Midoriya? What is your quirk?" the girl asked him.
The boy then said, "Well, my quirk is named chaos. It allows me to collect some type of power I like to call chaos energy," this statement was yelled at by Discord who refused his ideas to be claimed by Izuku to impress some girl, "And I can use this energy into a multitude of ways."
The girl tilted her head as she asked, "What can you do?"
The boy felt his heart melt as he looked at her expression, but then answered quickly, "Well, I can do a lot of things with it, such as telekinesis, telepathy, flight, teleportation, pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, element control, and many more."
The girl stared at him blankly as she then said, "Your quirk is so awesome. I mean to do all those things. This seems awesome."
The boy then scratched his cheek, as he said, "It's not really all that awesome if you know where the power comes from."
"Where does it come from?" the girl asked.
"It mostly comes from any place that chaos occurs in. I mean any place that crime happens in, or something as simple as getting lost like you were, I can collect it and use it."
The girl then hummed a little as she thought about it a little, "I still think it's cool though. I mean if you can feel it you can reach the place, and stop the crime."
The boy smiled remembering All Might's words from a couple of months back when he told the boy that this ability can be used wisely if he masters the ability to sense it. The boy looked at the girl, and said, "Thank you, Tsunotori."
The girl smiled at him, and then they began their walk around the city. They walked to the mall where the girl did window shopping. They then went to the park where he told her a couple of stories from when he was still a young boy, and how he used to play in the forest beside the park, and finally, after a long tour, they had lunch in a restaurant.
After they finished, the girl looked at her watch and frowned, and said, "It's already noon. I have to go back home. I wish we could talk more, Midoriya." She then had an idea as she took his phone, typed something in it, and said, "It was really nice to meet you, Midoriya. Here, I typed my phone number on your phone, so we can talk later, and also…" the girl began to kick the garble on the ground, "Can you teach me Japanese?"
The boy then smiled at her, "Of course, I would like to help Tsunotori, if you want we can train together on the beach too; that way, we can become stronger for the entrance exam, and enter the hero course together."
The horse girl then nodded her head as she said, "That's really nice of you, Midoriya. See you tomorrow here." The girl then went back home, while Izuku realized that he just invited her to train with him and All Might.
Discord then said, "Nice. You didn't stutter with her. What's the occasion?"
The boy blushed as she said, "Well, I think it's thanks to this ability giving some form of confidence. At least, that's the theory I have."
Discord then shrugged, as Izuku then called All Might, and explained what happened. The hero didn't mind it much, as he explained that he has no problem helping the young girl train with him and that he'll work on a program for the girl to use.
And for that day forward, Tsunotori joined Izuku training on the beach while the latter began to teach the former how to read Japanese. They also increased the control of their quirks; for Pony, she increased the number of horns she can launch from her head, and increased the number of horns she can control in the air, and Izuku, also managed to increase the scope of his abilities and even managed to convince Discord to let him learn the basics of reality manipulation, but he didn't let him try it, since he said he will only train him in it after the entrance exam.
Right now, Izuku was on the beach with a small All Might talking with him, "I'm really proud of young Midoriya. I mean look at you; 10 months about you were nothing, but a small crybaby. Now, you changed entirely. If I didn't know you I wouldn't have believed that you're the same person, I met months ago."
The boy then smiled, and said, "Thank you, All Might. I'm really excited about the entrance exam, and I can't wait to get there. I really wish I do good on it."
"Well, I believe that you're going to do good young Midoriya." All Might said hoping that the boy will meet his successor during the exam, and he knew that both of them will get along with each other immediately.
They then both heard a voice calling out for them. They looked and saw Pony running toward them, "Hey Midoriya. Hey Mr. Yagi, how are you today?"
The boy blushed a little as the girl talked to him, and All Might laughed at the boy's reactions as he said, "Good morning, young Tsunotori. I'm fine today. I hope you are ready to go to the exam. I have high hopes for both of you, and I know that you're both going to enter the hero course and make great heroes.
The girl nodded her head repeatedly as she said, "Yeah, I'm really ready. I'm going to totally kill it today." The girl still remembered the hard training she had, and she was really positive about today. She believed that today was going to be easy. She was sure that she was going to do great in the practical exam. That only left the theoretical exam, but she was sure that she was going to do great in it.
She then looked at Izuku, and said, "Midoriya, are you ready to go to the entrance exam? I'm really excited, and I'm sure that we're going to do great."
The boy nodded his head smiling at her excitement, but also couldn't help but feel a little bit worried that something would go wrong, and he would fail. Pony saw this, and smacked the side of his head with one of her horns as she said, "No worrying now, Midoriya. I know what you're thinking, and I'm telling you right now that you're going to make it in the hero course."
The boy's eyes widen, but he then smiled at the girl, and said, "Thank you, Tsunotori. That's really nice of you to say. I believe that you're going to make it in too."
All Might then looked at his phone, and said, "Now, I believe that you too should seriously begin making your way to UA, because you still have about an hour before the exam begins."
The two nodded their head, walked to the train station, and took the ride toward UA. They sat in silence as they waited for the ride to end. When they finally arrived, Pony grabbed Izuku's arms and dragged him like a ragdoll with the boy flailing trying not to hit anyone.
The future hero students then stood in front of UA, as they both gaped at the huge size of the place, and Pony said in her native language, "Damn, that's a huge place. How much does it cost?"
The boy only shrugged she said, "I don't know, but most likely it seems that it must cost a fortune to be in this place, but this is UA, and their motto is 'Plus Ultra'. So it's, go big or go home."
The girl giggled a little as she said, "Yeah, I suppose so." She then grabbed his arm as she said, "Let's go in then, no need to wait anymore."
Both of them were then startled as someone shouted at them saying, "Get the fuck out of the way, Deku."
Izuku and Pony then sighed and looked at the source, and they both saw Bakugo who was wearing his usual scowl, and Izuku greeted him, "Hi, Kacchan."
"Shut the fuck up, Deku." He then looked at the girl holding his hand, and asked, "Who's this? Your girlfriend; didn't know someone was desperate enough to date you."
The girl then blushed furiously, but by the time she opened her mouth to talk Bakugo was already gone.
She looked at Izuku, and asked him, "Is that…"
"Yeah, that's him, but he seems in a good mood today."
The girl frowned as she said, "Don't let him walk all over you, Izuku." Pony then grabbed his arm, and dragged him inside the school property as a girl with chestnut-colored hair watched both of them with a blush on her face thinking that they were a couple.
As Pony dragged the boy, Izuku thought, 'Well, here I am in UA. I have to do my best to become a hero. It's now or never.'
Chapter 4: Time to destroy some bots
The Exam from Hell
The two hero course contestants walked through the huge facility as they searched for the debriefing hall where they will be told what they are going to do today, and where will they go to take their tests. Izuku looked and saw a huge room, and grabbed Pony's arm as he dragged him inside the room.
The girl smiled as she said excitedly in her native tongue, "I can't wait, Izuku. I'm so excited about the test. This is so cool. My mommy studied here in U.A. and became a hero. I hope I can make her proud." The girl finished grabbing Izuku's attention since he didn't know that her mother was a hero, so he manifested his notebook and pen.
"So Pony, can you tell me who your mother is?" the boy said as he readied his pen to write down her quirk, and analyze it.
The girl giggled at his antics, as Discord, who thanks to Izuku could manifest to others, appeared in front of her in his small form to stay away from people's sight and said, "Please don't encourage his antics. It's already troublesome enough. We don't need his girlfriend making it even further. Heroes shouldn't be blabbermouth who let out their secrets in the open." Izuku has longed shared the origin of his powers with Pony, and where it came from. To say the girl was shocked would be an understatement, but that didn't change the girl's mind about the boy as he told him during their training sessions that he would make a hero regardless if he had powers or not.
Pony, who now had a huge blush on her face wondering why everyone they met thought they were a couple, said, "First, we're not a couple." Discord only snorted and added, "Yet". The girl carried on saying, "I think it's cute when he mumbles."
The boy who was on the sides had his face turn into a bringing mess, as he couldn't handle this anymore, and so was the girl who just realized what she said.
The girl then answered his earlier question saying, "My mommy is the American hero known as 'Cow lady'."
The boy's eyes widened, as he recalled her from one of All Might's team-ups in his early days back in the USA. He then said, "That's so cool." He quickly began to write in his notebook as the girl giggled.
The lights in the entire hall then went out, as a single light was now beaming to a desk at the beginning of the hall. Moments later, a man who looked like he didn't get a good night's sleep in 3 days strolled inside the room, causing the horse girl to ask the boy, "Izuku, do you know who's the scary-looking hobo?"
The boy shook his as he looked at the man that he couldn't help, but feel that he knew from somewhere, but he couldn't remember where, "No, I don't think so, or at least I can't pinpoint where I saw him."
The girl was shocked since she knew that Izuku knew about every hero there including ones from outside the country.
A cough drew everyone's attention as the homeless man said, "Good morning problem children," this caused more than a few eyebrows to be raised at the odd naming, "Right now, you're all going to the theoretical part of the entrance exam, before you all go to the practical part. The rules to the theoretical part are simple for all of you; the test is one hour, all of you will keep your eyes on your own paper, you are to keep quiet at all times; if anyone of you has a quirk that helps them in this, there's nothing we can do about it, and most importantly if any of you as so much try to look at your neighbor's test, both individuals will be kicked out." And with that, the man walked away from the students leaving more than a stunned individual.
The students were then divided into multiple groups to go to the theoretical exam. When Izuku reached his room, a huge smile broke on his face as he saw the ghost hero: Ectoplasm. He took the test from the man and began to do his test as Discord talked with him in his mind trying to help him.
"I think the correct answer for question 88 is 'c'." Discord said trying to help the boy with his test.
The boy then looked at his test and saw that he was close to finishing, so Discord then decided to ask, "So when are you going to ask the girl out? I mean it's clear that she likes you, and most importantly you like her."
The boy blushed heavily as he continued to write his exam as he replied to the ex-lord of chaos, "It's not like that. She's just a friend…" he was cut off by Discord, "Who calls you by your first name, had a few sleepovers at your house, and even slept with you in the same bed one time." He finished with a smirk.
The boy right now resembled a human strawberry drawing Ectoplasm's attention, but when he noticed who the boy was, he simply shook his head. All Might had long but forged Izuku's quirk papers saying that his quirk was named was chaos, which immediately put the boy under the eyes of the HSPC, but All Might managed to calm down their fears as he didn't want the boy to be taken under their wing, and become a mindless soldier. The hero knew the entire truth about the boy's quirk, so he simply considered it as something between the two chaos users.
When the test was finished, the boy went and handed out his exam to the ghost hero asking for his autograph which the hero did. Turns out contrary to his scary-looking appearance, the ghost hero was a nice individual albeit a little strict, but nice nonetheless.
The boy then went to the same hall that he was in before, waiting for the explanation for the practical part of the test. He was hugged from behind by Pony who asked him, "How did you do, Izuku? I did really great."
The boy smiled at her, as she disengaged from the hug and looked at him, "I did great. I think I might be able to get a full grade." The boy then puffed his chest in a rare show of power as the girl couldn't contain her laughter at his antics.
The girl then pouted as she said, "No fair, Izuku. You have Discord to help you out during the tests. The guy lived for thousands of years. He already has so much knowledge about everything."
The ex-lord then appeared in his mini-form saying, "Guilty as charged."
The two then began to laugh as the boy looked away with a pout on his face, but a harsh thud beside the boy caused Discord to disappear. Both the girl and the boy looked beside them only to see Bakugo sitting beside them, causing him to growl, "Of all the fucking places to sit, couldn't you sit somewhere else?"
Izuku steeled himself as he said, "I can sit where I want, and you don't have a say in it." The moment the words left his lips, Bakugo's expression turned into something that resembled a demon that came straight out of hell who wants nothing but to kill the green-haired boy right there and now, but before he can do anything the lights went out causing the green-haired boy to sigh in relief while Pony was giving Bakugo the evil eye.
The lights came back up again, but this time to the desk in front of the hall. A different man now walked up to the stage; he was wearing stylish clothes with a speaker attached to his throat. He had his hair styled like cockatoo feathers. He was the voice hero: Present Mic. The man sat down at his desk, and said, "HOW ARE YOU DOING EVERYBODY? CAN I GET A 'YEAH'?" The hero sat down at his desk waiting for a response but got nothing.
Over with Izuku and Pony, both were giggling at the hero since Izuku was a fan of heroes, and Pony liked Mic's style.
The hero then tried again to have the children react with him, "HELLO, THERE FUTURE HERO EXAMINEES. ARE YOU EXCITED LIKE I AM FOR THE TEST TODAY BECAUSE I SURE AM? SO HOW ABOUT I GET FROM ALL OF YOU LITTLE LISTENERS A LITTLE 'YEAH'."
This time both Izuku and Pony yelled at the hero, "YEAH."
The hero then raised his hands as he pointed at the two hero examinees saying, "Thanks for that little speakers." However, at their side, Bakugo began to slowly sink in the seat to avoid being accidentally associated with the two idiots as he called them. Also unknown to the two future heroes, a boy with blue hair looked at them with a scowl on his head as he shook it dismissively at them.
Izuku then said excitedly, "I just replied to Present Mic. This is so cool." He looked at Pony who was sharing his exact emotions at the moment, as he carried on, "I listen to his radio show every day in the morning. It's so cool."
Bakugo then slapped his forehead as he said, "Shut the fuck up, Deku. And put a muzzle on that girl of yours," Izuku had to grab Pony to prevent her from choking him, "He's about to start, so shut the heck up so I can listen to his explanation." He looked away from him as he said quietly, "Damn idiot. What did I do to ever deserve this?"
The two hero students looked at the hero as a huge picture came from behind him.
The hero then pointed to the screen and began his explanation, "Alright little listeners and the two little speakers, now let's get to the main event of this little seminar, shall we?" The voice hero then pointed to the screen behind him, "As you can see, there are three types of robots that you can destroy, the first is the one-pointer," the robot had one wheel with two huge gun hands that protect it, "And you have the two-pointer which is a little bit tougher than the first one, but it is still doable and easy to defeat," the second one seemed like a scorpion shaped robot with a huge tail that was connected to its back, "And finally, there is the three-pointer which is the hardest of the robots to beat cause it was made to present a challenge to you little listeners to see what you are made off." He then said, "Now please, everyone look under your desks, and you will find your assigned arenas where you will fight the robots."
The students then looked and saw that the desk in front of them now presented them with small cards that presented them where they were going to fight. Izuku looked at his card and saw that he was in arena 'B'. He looked at Pony who was smiling as he asked her, "Where are going to fight, Pony?"
"B" the girl smiled at him, "We're totally going to rock this, but get ready for me to defeat you." The girl said with a huge smirk.
"Is that a challenge?" Izuku asked with a smirk of his own, but the happy mood was destroyed by Bakugo, "Can you stop flirting with each other? We're here to be heroes, not lovers," he then looked at the Izuku's card, and said, "Seems that we're not in the same place. Pity, I wanted to kick your ass to the next century."
Izuku then said, "I think that they separated people from the same school to avoid them trying to help each other." He then looked at Bakugo's card as he asked him, "Where did you end up getting it?"
The blond-haired boy then snarled as he said, "Go away, Deku. I'd never tell you where I am." The green-haired boy sweat-dropped as he said, "But you're the one who looked at my card first."
Present Mic then continued with his explanation, "Alright, little listeners, now regarding the test; the rules are simple as they get. You are going to destroy as many robots as you can to gather points. The more you gather the greater your chances are to enter the hero course. Everything goes as long as you don't attack other competitors. Furthermore, stealing another examinee's kill will lead to a penalty, so don't try that. And now…" the voice hero was going to add something, but he was stopped by a boy who raised his hand saying, "Excuse me, sir, can I ask you a question?"
The boy looked like a robot since his posture was extremely rigid, and he was chopping his hand in the air like a robot. He was wearing a brown jacket and rectangular-shaped eyeglasses.
The voice had his eyebrow twitch cause he was interrupted mid-explanation, but he put a smile on his face as he looked at the boy, and said with a chipper voice, "Alright, examinee 7111, shoot your question away at me, and let's see if I can help in any way possible." The voice hero finished as the boy nodded his head.
The boy then stood up and held the pamphlet that the school gave them to read about the robots in the test as he began speaking, "First off, I'd like to ask about the fourth robot that was represented in the presentation that you just gave. I didn't hear explain anything about it, and I don't see anything about it in the pamphlet here, so I must ask what it is. This should be considered a huge mistake on U.A.'s behalf to forget about such a thing given how prestigious its reputation is." This caused Mic's brow to twitch again, but before he can answer the boy turned toward Izuku and Pony saying, "And you two over there, the one with the green hair and the one with the pair of horns."
Izuku pointed at himself as he asked, "Are you talking to me?" Pony on the other hand just blinked in confusion, as she was sure that both of them were quiet so no one heard them talk about the test.
The boy then continued, "Both of you have been muttering and talking with each other this entire time. If you can't take this seriously, leave. This institution doesn't need freeloaders like you. The moment you came here you were both distracting everyone from the beginning when you yelled."
While Izuku felt embarrassed about what happened, Pony didn't have it as she yelled back, "What about you? You disrupted Present Mic during his explanation, plus if you looked at the pamphlet you would have seen it's called a zero-pointer. And tell me something; how did we bother everyone when you're the only one complaining? My friend mutters when he tries to strategize, so if anything, you're trying to distract him from doing his best, and everyone else." This caused Izuku to look at her with awe while Discord said in his head, "You sure you don't like her."
The boy's face turned red from embarrassment, as he said, "No, of course not, I apologize for my accusation."
Present Mic then took control of the ship again as he said, "No problem, little listener 7111, just try to understand what's happening before you throw an accusation next time. As for your question, like little speaker 5439 said; it's called the zero pointer. It's a huge obstacle that no one is supposed to be able to fight. If you see this thing, turn and run since no one can actually beat it. Consider it as the boss villain from the Mario Brothers' video game Bowser."
The blue-haired boy then nodded his head as he said, "Thank you for your explanation." He bowed and then sat down on his desk.
Present Mic then said, "Alright little listeners, now everyone get ready to go to the exam area, and do the best you can. Don't forget the school's motto 'Plus Ultra'." The hero then stood and walked away from the desk.
Pony then grabbed Izuku's and dragged him away like a ragdoll to go to the bus that will take them to their arena.
The girl said happily with a huge grin on her face, "let's go do our best, Izuku."
The boy then replied with the same smile, "Alright Pony, let's do our best, and see which one of us will do better in the test."
"You're on, Izuku." The girl replied excitedly, before adding, "And the loser will have to take the winner to buy ice cream." The boy chuckled at her knowing that the girl had some serious sweet tooth on her.
The two teens boarded the bus that would take them to their sight where they would take the practical part of the exam. The two talked to each other during the duration of the trip making strategies so they can fight off the robots.
When they reached the city, they marveled at the scene in front of them. The sight itself was a giant city made of ruins. Truly, UA was the personification of the saying go big, or go home. the boy wondered, if UA had this much money, or if it had a benefactor that just didn't care where his money was going.
The boy shook his head as he saw Pony go to a side so she can begin with her stretching. The boy watched her for a bit, as Discord said in his head, "Like what you see." The boy blushed quickly as he began to mumble incoherently.
Discord chuckled at him saying, "Clam down, it's natural for you to like a girl. It's not the end of the world, you know." He went silent for a moment before asking again, "So, are going to ask her out on a date after this?"
The boy's face went atomic red as he said, "You can't just say that like it's nothing." The boy then scratched the back of his head saying, "Plus, I'm sure she doesn't see me that way."
Discord sighed as he facepalmed saying, "You're both seriously dense. You both clearly like each other. You both hung out with each other for the past 5 months. You both watch the same type of movies which is nerd movies by the way; no class at all…" he was cut off by Izuku saying, "Hey marvel is one of the classics; show some respect."
Discord scoffed at him with a smirk, "Anyway, my point is that you two totally like each other, so why won't you ask her out?"
Izuku sighed as he dragged a hand at his face looking at the spirit of chaos with an exasperated look and explained, "It's like I don't want to, but she's my first friend from a very long time; I'm afraid if I asked her out that this might affects just drastically if she rejected me."
The spirit of chaos nodded its head saying, "I get where you're coming from, but at the end of the day, you have to take leaps of faith to make things work. Playing it safely is good, but sometimes you need to take chances."
The boy nodded his head as he understood his mentor of sorts words, and said, "Alright, have it your way. I'll ask her out when I get my results." He crossed his arms, and looked away seeing, "Are proud of yourself now?"
Discord laughed and said, "Of course, I can now add to my resume matchmaker," he then began to ask himself, "What name should I choose Izukuy or Ponku? What to choose? What to choose?"
The boy blushed at the couple's name as he turned around to continue his stretches. When he did that he noticed a girl with blush marks on her cheeks taking breaths as she tried to calm herself. The boy smiled to himself as he remembered how he was a couple of months ago.
The boy then stood up and went to the girl to try and cheer her up, so she wouldn't be too nervous when she goes to the test, but suddenly a hand clasped on his shoulder taking him by surprise… or it would have if wasn't for the chaos ability of enhanced senses already warning him of the approaching presence.
He turned to the individual that the boy who Pony roasted in the hall during Present Mic's explanation. 'Wow, this guy sure likes to spread his nervousness to others, or he's just so stiff he seems that he has a stick up his ass like Bakugo would say.'
The boy opened his mouth to try and say something, but Izuku quickly shut him by saying, "Dude, calm yourself. I was only trying to help her. she was nervous and I was trying to help her calm down. I mean it's a hero's job to help people feel safe after all."
The boy had his mouth clamp shut as he suddenly felt very embarrassed, and said quietly, "I'm sorry, it seems I misjudged your intentions." He then bowed at 90 degrees as Izuku said, "Now, now, no need for that all of us make mistakes."
He then looked at the boy and gave him a chocolate bar saying, "Here, you need more than me. You seem nervous; eat it. It sure helps me when I'm nervous." The boy looked at the bar before taking and bowing another time saying, "Thanks for your kindness. I already know that you're going to be a great hero, and proved yourself to be my superior. I wish I can learn more from you."
"I don't think that a stick, but I think he's really earnest.' Discord said to which Izuku accidentally said, "Yeah, that seems about right, Discord."
The boy looked at him, and asked, "Excuse, but who are you talking to?"
Izuku blushed before rubbing the back of his head and explained, "Well, you see my quirk is kinda sentient, so I was talking to it. And it goes by the name of Discord."
The boy hummed as he said, "That's interesting. I never encountered a sentient quirk before, but the world is full of wonders," the boy then gasped, and said, "Where are my manners? My name is Tenya Iida. It's a pleasure to meet you…"
"Izuku Midoriya, and it's also my pleasure to meet you, Iida." The boy shook the other one's hand, but when he touched it; something happened. The boy found himself in a dark alleyway, where the sound of swords echoed.
When he came back, Iida asked him, "Midoriya, are you alright? You seem to have blacked out for a second."
The boy shook his head, and said, "No nothing just a bad memory. And by the way, since we're on the subject of bad memories; here's a word of advice never go to dark alleyways. You don't know what type of creeps will be waiting for you there."
The taller boy although confused nodded, as Izuku took his leave to talk to the girl he saw from earlier.
He walked up to hear, and he heard say, "Alright, this is one of a time life chance, Ochako. You can't fail here. You have to help your parents, so you need to get into the hero course."
He then tapped her shoulder causing her to yelp, and jump back a little. When she looked at him, she said, "Was I distracting you? I'm really sorry…" the girl then began to mutter apologies at a speed that would put Izuku to shame.
The boy chuckled a little causing the girl to look at him, so he said, "Actually, I came here to try and help you. I saw that you were extremely nervous, so I wanted to help you calm your nerves down."
The girl looked at him and blushed to say, "Thank you, I'm really nervous. I mean this is a rare opportunity, so I'm afraid that I might not be able to make it." He understood where the girl was coming from. He was also nervous given that he only had his powers for 10 months and trained them in a hurry, but nonetheless he was determined, so he said, "It's okay, I believe that you can totally do it."
The girl blushed as she rubbed the back of her head with a sheepish expression, as she said, "Thank you. I really hope you and your girlfriend make it too." The boy immediately gained a blush as Discord laughed at his expense.
Izuku then shook his head saying, "I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself before. My name is Izuku Midoriya."
The girl replied by saying, "Ochako Uraraka"
Izuku then said, "Alright Uraraka, I'll give this final piece of advice which is that a hero's core base is saving people, and also when the gates open run as quickly as you can." He then flashed a thumbs up, "Okay"
"Okay?" the girl droned on confused.
Suddenly the gates of the city opened, and Izuku with Pony ran quickly in with Ochako following Izuku's advice and walking inside the city.
Voices of rejection echoed out as people began to talk about how the three will be disqualified.
"He didn't tell us to move yet."
"Those three will totally get disqualified."
Suddenly Present Mic came over the speaker system saying, "WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! HEROES DON'T WAIT FOR GO SIGNS IN REAL LIFE. FOLLOW THE OTHER 3 LEADS AND GO IN ALREADY."
The other contestants then ran quickly inside the city to gather points.
Inside the city, Izuku ran looking for points. He made around and saw two 1-pointers. So he used all the chaos energy present in the entire test sight and other sights and turned into a rhino. The rhino quickly ran and slammed his body inside the first robot destroying it, before putting his horn through the other one.
The boy then turned back into normal as he used his enhanced speed to run quickly through the area, and once again he found a robot; a 3-pointer to be exact. The boy smiled as he decided to use something other than his shape-shifting. He then used his magnetism as he said, "Metal meet magnetism." The robot then began to shrink on itself till it was nothing but scrap.
The boy then ran again through the field before finding three 2-pointers. The 2-pointer saw him, and they lifted their hands saying, "Target acquired, eliminate."
The robots then throw their tails at him to which he dodged. Izuku then tapped the tail causing the robot contained to it to be cut in half as one half was out in the open while the other was in a bubble prison. He then used his telekinesis to crush a robot's head. And finally, he used pryokinesis to burn the third robot.
He then began to count on his hands, "Alright, let's see, so that's 2 1-pointers, one 3-pointer, and 3 2-pointers. So I gathered till now about 11 points." He then used teleportation to find new targets leaving behind him a gaping audience as one of them said, "Are we seriously going against a monster like this?"
Back in the observation room, several people were watching the exams with interest. One of them then said with a calm voice, "it would appear that we have a promising batch this year."
Another one then spoke in a sensual voice, "Yes, and that makes me so excited."
A tired voice then rang out as he said, "Please don't do that. We don't want lawsuits this year."
A raspy voice then spoke up, "All the students are performing greatly all things considered. Each is displaying impressive abilities."
Another person then added, "some are fighting with pure raw strength, and using their powers to the fullest." A screen was showing who was fighting robots with a huge maniacal smile on his face as he blasted robots away.
"Some are using the environment to their advantage." It now showed a frog girl using her tongue to lift robots and then throw them to the ground.
"Others are defying all the odds even though they can't much to the robots." It now showed a robot being shut down courtesy of a switch being shut off by an invisible girl.
and then the tired voice said, "And then they are people are using the chaos of the exam to their advantage." He said as he pointed to Izuku who blasted a robot with ice.
"Like I said a promising batch this year." The original voice spoke.
He then smiled as he said, "Now, it's time for the true test." He then pushed a huge red button as he yelled, "Release the Kraken"
Others looked at him with an exasperated look at his antics, but only shrugged because they work for him. only one figure sat quietly as he said, "Now, it's the true test of a hero."
Back in the ground, Izuku shifted from his wyvern form after he destroyed a 3-pointer, as he said, "Alright and that makes it about 80 points. Good"
He suddenly felt the ground begin to shake as he looked at the hulking monstrosity in front of him, as he said, "Seriously, who's funding UA? Killer Robots Incorporated." The boy then began to run away from the robot like the other contestants, but he then heard a faint voice that yelled, "Help."
When he looked back, Uraraka was stuck under some rumble unable to come from beneath them with the zero-pointer marching toward her. The boy then ran toward her as he passed Pony who yelled, "Izuku"
The girl was shocked when he didn't reply, but then saw Ochako and decided to help him to free the girl.
The boy then reached Ochako as he tried to lift the rumble. The girl saw him and then said, "Midoriya, what are you doing? That giant thing is coming. Go away, so you won't be hurt." The boy looked at her and said, "Never"
The rumble he was trying to lift was budging a little as the giant robot came closer, but suddenly two horns slammed themselves into the rock as Pony said, "You seriously are stubborn, Izuku. Next time call for help."
The two of them then managed to lift the rumble as they dragged Ochako away from the killer robot, but Izuku looked at it, and began to walk toward, it as Pony said, "Izuku what are you planning to do."
"What a hero does. I'm going to take out the threat."
"But that thing is huge. You could get hurt."
"And so could others; so that's why I have to take it down."
"But…"
"no buts"
The horse girl sighed knowing that there was no changing his mind now, but only said, "Just promise that you will come back in one piece."
The boy smiled at her, and said, "Don't worry because I got this thing in the bag."
The boy walked up to the zero pointer; he knew that he had to stop it, but the problem was that he didn't have the slightest idea of how he was going to do it. At first, he thought he could use his reality-altering abilities, but given that he had no training whatsoever in this domain, he might as well throw a pick of dynamite into an oil well and hope that the well doesn't blow up into bits and pieces.
He had then had an idea that might just work. It was crazy that's for sure, but it had hope for it to work. The boy then began to absorb the chaotic energy that was in the field and the surrounding ones. He looked at the giant zero-pointer as he lifted his hand to the sky causing a huge cloud to appear, and then used his weather manipulation to cause lighting to strike the machine.
Back in the observation room, All Might sat as he watched Izuku and his successor fight the zero-pointer, "In life, there is no merit in doing the right thing. No one will congratulate you, or give you a medal for it. However, for some people, happiness is for their help is all that they need to do it…"
Izuku then turned into a huge dragon as he breathed a huge amount of fire on the zero-pointer managing to cause its armor to begin to melt from the intense heat. Discord then appeared in Izuku's head as he yelled, "Izuku, what the hell are you doing? You're overloading yourself, and that thing is still rolling on forward. You need to go away."
Izuku then turned back into his human form as he began to condense the chaos energy into his super strength aspect focusing it into his arms to help make one super punch. The boy then used his teleportation and was near the zero pointer's head as he punched it causing the huge machine to cave on itself.
The boy smiled at his handy work as he began to pass out, but he said, "That's totally worth it." The boy then allowed himself to blackout as he felt something grab him preventing him from dying.
With All Might, he then said, "Nothing is more beautiful than self-sacrifice." He then watched both his successor and the ex-lord of chaos collapse to the ground after destroying the zero pointer to save people.
Back in the testing area, Pony just barely managed to grab Izuku from midair using her horns before helping him land on the ground. The girl sighed as she looked at Izuku's sleeping form. He seemed happy with himself. It wasn't like he almost caused her a heart attack not a couple of moments ago. Well, training could be a good way to get back at him, but now she had one thing to do.
She hugged the boy and began to cry telling him how she was afraid that he was going to die earning a couple of weird looks given that he was unconscious and couldn't possibly reply, but she didn't care.
Moments later, recovery girl came and healed all the injured individuals, and robots took Izuku to the infirmary to let him rest since he overused his quirk. Pony tagged along to make sure that he was okay. Ochako went along to make sure that her savior was fine.
An hour later, Izuku woke up groaning. He looked around only to see a very pissed-off Pony looking at him with Ochako sitting there with worry in her eyes.
Pony then yelled in English saying, "Damn it Izuku, how many times do I have to tell you to stop doing stupid things?"
The boy scratched his head saying in Japanese, "As much, as I had Discord tell me that I'm an idiot when it comes to social skills."
The girl nodded her head saying, "Exactly, so stop doing it okay."
The boy nodded his head knowing deep down that he was going to break this promise very soon when school starts. He then said, "How many points did you collect?"
The girl then smiled saying, "60 points"
The boy then replied, "80 points"
The girl pouted, "No fair, Izuku. You have all these powers it's hard to keep up."
The boy chuckled saying, "Well, a deal is a deal. So, I want a chocolate triple scoop please." The girl although pouting nodded her head. Izuku then turned to Ochako, "Uraraka, do you want to come with us? We're going to buy ice cream."
The girl blushed upon being noticed feeling like she was interrupting something, but said, "No, I just wanted to say thank you for saving." She then looked at her clock and said, "I really have to go now." The girl then took her to leave.
Izuku then looked at Pony, "So, shall we go to earn my winnings?" the girl huffed as she stood up. Her tail was moving and wagging left and right. Izuku then said cheekily, "You know it's hard to take you seriously when your tail is acting like an excited puppy."
Izuku then ran outside the room with Pony yelling, "I swear Izuku, I kick your butt. This the last time you compare my tail to a puppy."
Recovery girl could only smile as she said, "Young Love"
