14.entrance exam

(Izuku's pov)

Today is finally the day!
Months of building confidence and studying all for this moment!

Me and Toshi we're standing on UA's door step taking in the glorious view.

"Let's get this show on the road." Says the purple boy with his normal dry humor.
I nod and start walking with my brother .

Only to trip on a brick..
Welp there goes my confidence.
.
..
...
....?
I never hit the ground.
I realize that I'm weightless and it reminds of the awful tube.
I started squirming , trying to move out of my half fallen position.

"Are you okay?"asks a bubbly voice.
I stop and look at the person that stopped me from faceplanting as she corrects my stance in order for me to land on my feet.

"I stopped you with my quirk. I'm sorry I didn't ask first." She says as I feel the weight return to me.

"N-No no it's fine you just surprised me that's all!" I quickly respond.
"Yo Izuku. What's the hold up?" Toshi calls back.
"Oh um, I tripped and she caught me." I started."My name is Izuku Aizawa , what's yours?" I ask remembering what Dad said about making friends.
"Oh I'm Ochako Uraraka!" She glances down at her watch.
"Oh shoot I got to go! I guess I will see you inside! Bye!" She said taking off.

"Flirting already short stack?" Asks my brother in a teasing tone.
" *Gasp* Hey I'm not short I'm travel sized!"
I say in mock offense.
"You're not denying flirting though?" My tail flicks in annoyance.
"Let's just get inside!" I say walking off with my brother close behind.

"What's up UA candidates, thank you for tuning in to me your school DJ " I hear papa mic say. Lord is his hero persona so... extra.

"Come on and let me hear a YEEEEeeeAAAaahhh!"  No one responded. "Tough crowd huh"
"Well I guess I'll just skip to the main show!" He says way to enthusiastically.
Paps continues to explain the exam which involves three types of robots each having a different amount of points .

The strangely enough there was four robots listed on the packet handed out which apparently irritated one specific candidate.
"Excuse me with all due respect there seems to be a mistake on the packet it says that there are four robots not three if this is a mistake on the count of UA, It is shameful." Says a blue haired boy that looks like the belong at a job interview instead of a high school exam.
"Well someone has a stick up their ass." Whispered Toshi.
"-and you!" He pointed at me
"If you could stop flicking your tail and distracting people that would be appreciated." I hadn't even noticed that it was flicking and it's not something I can really control. The only thing he managed to do was royally piss of Toshi.
If anyone knew anything about Toshi it would be that He Does Not Tolerate quirk discrimination and that's exactly how it was looking. He stood where the rage in his eyes.
"Excuse me you idiot. How can you be both over-educated and under educated?
You must be sore from that silver spoon shoved up your ass because how can you not tell that "that" is an obvious mutation! It's a tail! reacts to emotion!" He said sitting back down.
Papa mic ignored Toshi's outburst and answered the blunetee's question.
"Thanks for calling in with your request! The fourth villain type is worth 0 points!"

"That guy's just an obstacle that we will be throwing in your way. There's one in every battle center , Think of it as a hurdle that you should try to avoid."

"It's not that it can't be beaten but there kind is no point" paps finishes with a sample of the schools moto and we're shipped off to our testing grounds.

I already know Toshi is going to pass. He's been training every day with dad until he can hardly move. On the days that I joined then I quickly realized why Toshi calls dad's training "hell training".
But hey at least I'm not so scrawny anymore.

I quickly made my way to the front of the group. When those gates open I don't want to be stuck with the scraps and leftovers.
I spotted Uraraka trying to calm down, she looked like she was about to have a panic attack so I started to make my way to her.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and stopped.
"If your going to go distract her then don't, she looks like she's trying to focus." It's the blue haired boy from before.
This irritated me and Nekage started getting interested .
" She "looks" like she's about to have a panic attack. " I said pulling free from his hand. I could feel his glare, if this was me from a month ago I would have probably coward at his gaze but not with all the social training me and dad did.

I walked over and said hi again. She seemed happy to have a distraction.

After about 5 minutes I heard the gate start to open and made my way back to the front.
I say the red light above the gate turn green and I was off.

Shifting partially I quickly snatch the necks of three robots near the entrance .

All one pointers.
3 points
I need at least 30 to reach my personal goal.

I took off again hearing paps confirm that there were no count downs in a real battle.

Taking to the alleys i gained 13 more points.
Not many people would go for the alleys, most find them cramped and dark .

Well I can see in the dark and I use the walls to my advantage.

I'm surprised how fun this is.
The fight.
The adrenaline.
The Chaos

10 minutes left
And I'm..
Starting to get bored?
Exam is strangely not difficult enough it's just boring .

36 points
5 Minutes left

I can feel a rumble through the ground .
I know what it is.
The zero pointer.
A challenge!

Grinning
I shift fully into my cat form and take off towards the source of the rumbling.
It's total chaos and not the good kind.

People have fallen in the path of the zero pointer.
That's more than enough to snap me out of my battle frenzy.
Shifting back into my partial form.
I start to scoop up any stragglers and get them to safety.

2 minutes left

A scream could he heard from the war path of the zero pointer.
The voice sounds familiar.
I rushed over towards the source.

Uraraka had been trapped by fallen debris.
I'm definitely not strong enough to lift it.
.
.
Nothing is going to touch my new friend

I run at the zero pointer as it swings a massive arm down toward me trying to squash me.

I jump as the arm made contact with the ground landing on the arm as I start running up.
Digging my extended claws into the metal to better grip.

Latching on to the neck I start to activate energy control to try to cause the robot to malfunction.

The casing on the wires isn't helping.
I extend my claws as much as I can and slash through the wires and activating energy control earning a massive shock on the process.

The robot fails to fix itself and falls backwards but so do I .

(Pov???)
I feel a slap last second before I hit the ground.
It's Uraraka, she saves me again.
But something is off.
"Owe"
Wait ?
What?
"Woah dude your eyes!"
"What wrong with my eyes?" I ask . my voice is off ... In fact it kinda sounds like
Nekage/Izuku
What?
My mind .. our mind?
Is kinda scrambled right now.
Maybe because of the electric shock.
I-we hear papa call out the end of the exam.

"-uo ok there?" Asks some other candidate.
Everything feels off.
I- we try to stand only to find it difficult.
Oh we need to respond to the person.
"I don't know"

(Izuku's pov)

I feel my mind separate from Nekage's.
That was so strange.
'what the actual fuck' I hear Nekage say

I try to stand again, this time succeeding.
I see it recovery girl in the distance and start walking over

It's probably best to get checked over after such a massive shock and whatever just happened.

(Authors time skip no jutsu)

Back at home I'm still wondering what happened.
It's like me and Nekage combined our consciousness .

I can only hope that that won't happen too often.
