Nine rings (MHA AU)

Chapter 1: Heroes

The sun shone through the classroom window. It was the final few weeks for this class. Many were on their phones, having a conversation with their peers or just messing about, not really doing any work. Paper airplanes whizzed through the room, carrying messages between the students.

"Settle down class." Said the unbothered and uncaring teacher as a ball of paper went flying across the room. Every became silent, knowing that their results here would make an impact on their lives so they all wanted to know if they'd passed or not.

He continued "I would tell you your individual scores and grades, but there's not much point seeing as you passed.". With that sentence, a cheer erupted from the students, with pieces of paper being burned, people extending their limbs and one kid even breaking his pencil.

"Don't drone on teach. Anyone who did good enough knew they were gone a pass or fail so there's no point." Remarked the blonde boy in the middle row, his feet on the desk and a smug look on his face.

"Well, that can be said for you. Others were on the line of failing but managed to get through. Anyways, I've seen a lot of your applications to various places. Including Bakugo's to UA." He said, his eyes focusing on nothing of remote interest, voice as dead as could be.

There were whispers around the classroom at the mention of Katsuki Bakugo entering the prestigious UA high school. "I heard that were All Might went to study." Said one girl. "Only 10 in a hundred get into that school." Another boy muttered.

Bakugo leapt, standing tall with his face in a grin as smug as a child beating an opponent in a video game." It's only natural for me. I aced all the mock tests. I'm the best person here. I ranked highest in all the physicals and completed the homework the best." He yelled, clearly wanting his voice to be heard throughout. "I'm on track to become the richest hero in the world! I'll be even better the ALL MIGHT! AND UA IS WHERE I'LL TRULY START!!!".

"Oh, and Midoryia, it says here that you wanna go to UA to.".

Bakugo's expressing changed from prideful to one of shock as he stood for a few minutes. Then, he exploded in a rage.

"WHAT THE GODDAMN HELL BASTARD!?"

His open fist came down onto a desk, as he threw a large explosion at Izuku. However, midoryia remained unfazed. His green hair flew back a little from rye explosion, but it seemed to leave no mark on his hands or on the desk itself. He had been scribbling away in his notebook, only slightly burned and had no reaction to the violent outburst.

"That was pathetic." He said calmly, voice a bit raspy but nonetheless calm. His hair was green, parted and messy with a bit of purple at the ends. His hands erupted in a series of mini explosions, causing Bakugo to jump back.

"Haven't you learned that I can simply render your explosions useless. You can't touch me, kaachan." Midoryia said, speaking with relative calmness. This infuriated Katsuki even more.

"YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME NERD!!?" he yelled, min explosions going off on his open palms.

"I know I'm better then, so don't try me. Especially not after last time." Izuku replied, not even seeming the slightest bit stressed.

Flashback to last time...

"Eat this NERD!" yelled Bakugo as he hurled an explosion at a pretty beat up Izuku. However, as his explosion collided, there was a bright purple glow. The other kids stood back, covering their eyes as the light was almost blinding. When it cleared, Bakugo was a few feet away from where he'd originally been, holding in his open hand the remains of two shattered rings. The very same ones that made up the 11 preventing Midoryia from activating his quirk. As for Midoryia himself, he stood, arm bruised and battered. He had a gash on his cheek and stood, clutching the wounded arm.
