I am The Batman

Chapter 4

Izuku's POV:

The exam ended and I was sent back home. I sat down on the couch and processed everything that happened.

I didn't get 1 point and worst of all I couldn't even save someone. Selina had to bail me out from getting crushed.

Selina's POV:

*At the exam*

I witnessed that Izuku was going to get crushed. I prepared a metal javelin but first I screwed something on the bottom.

My quirk only allowed me to make an explosive charge to the whole object. So I had to modify my javelins so the sharp part could be screwed on and off.

I charged the part I just screwed on and hauled it with all my strength. When I saw it reach its highest point I activated the explosion at the bottom so it could propel far enough.

I repeated this process 3 times as 3 of javelins hit the things face. Then once I saw it pierced it I activated the explosion knocking the robot back.

"I knew this was a bad idea" I mumbled. Izuku looked straight at me as I nodded at him and he nodded back.

I turned around and walked off deciding it was better that the heroes take care of it. I would do nothing more than wound his already low self-esteem

I looked back to see Izuku looking straight at the group with a disappointed look plastered over his face.

"I'm sorry little guy" I said to myself. I always thought of the possibility of it happening but by how hard he trained I thought he could at least pass by a sliver.

The only reason I joined the exam was so I could be with him. He'd get bullied just like he used to if he was alone, but I'd never tell him that.

He was already on the edge and having such discouraging words from a close friend would've broken him, and I can't exactly drop out now it'd be too suspicious.

I'd decided I was going to be a hero, for Izuku but a question crawled out to my mind.

Could I just give him some of my points?

Izuku's POV:

I already knew what to expect from the letter I received. It was going to tell me that I failed, but there's always next year right? I'll be able to get in with more training I thought to myself.

But a feeling of uncertainty crept over my, could I really do it? I fumbled an entrance exam how was I going to handle what came next?

I told myself to Ignore those voices, both my mom and Selina believe I can do it.

I won't give up if I have them I'll never give up. I stood up inhaling ready to soak in the contents of the letter.

Right when I was about to open it I was called by my mother. I quickly took my phone and picked up.

"Hey mom"

"Hey hunny" she said in a fatigued voice

"Why're you so tired?" I asked curiously

"I had to sprint thought aisles so I didn't miss the special on salmon" she said proudly of herself.

I didn't quite know how to reply but I wasn't going to downplay the achievement she was so proud of.

"Wow mom that's some guts you got there. Not everyone can do that y'know?"

"Thank you hunny. I'll be home soon okay?"
