On the drive back to Aizawa's home Optimus's head was filled with thoughts. *I really have a Quirk? Could I still have the Matrix? How did I even get here? I'm supposed to be in the Allspark, not an Alternate Universe. Can I get back or will I have to live the rest of my life here? What if they find out I wasn't originally human? Why do I appear so young, I'm older than a teenager.* 

His thought twisted into worries, only for him to be brought back to reality when he noticed Aizawa was pulling the car into his driveway. They were back home. *Huh... Home...*

"Alright, want to test out the quirk of yours now or later?" Aizawa asked.

"How about now, I'd like to see what I can do so I can stop thinking about it." Optimus responded with a slight chuckle. 

Aizawa guided Optimus to his backyard, "Let's see what you can do."

Optimus didn't know how to start, he tried putting his hand out hoping that if he just believed he could do it, it would come naturally.  After a few seconds a portal fit for someone the size of a human appeared, it looked exactly like a ground bridge. Optimus wondered if he should walk through, he doesn't know where it goes, does he need to open a second one. He put out his other hand in the opposite direction of the one he already had outstretched. Just then a second portal appeared, he prepared for the worst but nothing happened. No shadow zone. Optimus put his hands down but kept the thought of keeping the bridge open in his mind. They stayed right where he put them. He carefully walked towards one, he took a deep breath and walked in. It only took a few steps for him to arrive at the other end, as he did the bridge closed behind him.

"Good job Orion." Aizawa stated, startling Optimus. He had forgotten Aizawa was watching him. "Sorry." Aizawa said quickly when he noticed Optimus jump. 

"It's alright." Optimus chuckled as he walked over to Aizawa.

"You know, with enough training you could jump in and out of those portals pretty quickly. Would be good for combat and a get away." Aizawa thought aloud.

"That reminds me," Optimus started, "When is tryouts for that hero school you told me about?"

"UA, in about 2 months. If you want to join you better start training. I'll leave you to it." Aizawa smirked.

The next 2 months flew by. Optimus not only trained his quirk and body, he taught himself how to be a human teenager. He read up on human history, he watched reality TV, as well as the news. He even tried to make dinner once... they ended up eating take out. Finally the day of the tryouts arrived.
