By the end of the day Tatsu was exhausted, he barely remembered making it home. As Tatsu finally collapsed onto his bed, exhaustion washed over him like a tidal wave. The events of the day felt like a blur, each moment blending into the next as he struggled to keep up with the intensity of the practical exam. Despite his weariness, a sense of satisfaction washed over him knowing that he had faced the challenges head-on and pushed himself to the limit.

As sleep began to claim him, Tatsu's mind drifted back to the encounter with the blond  and the surge of power he had experienced, he had never experienced anything quite like it before... and about how good it felt to finally be free of all his fears and worries...

During the Entrance Exam

Aizawa's eyes narrowed as he observed Tatsu's performance on the screen. The boy had displayed a level of control and power that exceeded Aizawa's expectations. "His control has improved, but he's still walking a dangerous line," Aizawa muttered under his breath, his eyes narrowing further as he analyzed Tatsu's movements. The raw energy and determination emanating from the boy were undeniable, but Aizawa knew that without proper guidance, Tatsu's quirk could pose a serious threat, both to himself and those around him.

As the footage played on, Aizawa made mental notes of areas where Tatsu's control faltered, identifying moments where the boy's power seemed to overwhelm him. It was clear that Tatsu would need intensive training to harness this new side of his quirk.

Aizawa made a mental note to speak with Tatsu about his 'performance' as soon as he could, it seemed that there was lots for him to learn, especially if he managed to pass and get into U.A which it seemed like he would, even if it was only on combat points....

The journey ahead would be arduous, but Aizawa was confident that with his guidance, Tatsu could become a formidable hero—one who would make U.A proud.

Present Day

Tatsu stared at the note in his hands as his body trembled, this was it, once he opened this note he'd officially know whether he got into U.A or not. He was overwhelmed with anticipation and nervousness, his heart pounding in his chest as he hesitated to unfold the paper. Every moment felt like an eternity as he grappled with the uncertainty of his future.

Taking a deep breath, Tatsu steadied his trembling hands and slowly opened the letter, jumping as a small, metal disc fell out and began playing a holographic video. He watched patiently as the holographic video played before him, his heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and trepidation.

The video began with an image of All Might, introducing himself and expressing his pride in the new generation of heroes. He then went on to talk about the entrance exam, congratulating them on their hard work and dedication.

Eventually the number one hero moved on to the actual results, revealing that Tatsu was among the selected few! He was accepted into U.A! He couldn't believe it! His heart felt like it was going to explode with joy. This was his dream come true! He had worked so hard for this moment, and now he had been accepted into the prestigious U.A. Academy!

Now he had to figure out what he was going to do next. What was he supposed to take with him to such a school? Would it just be the same as a regular high school or would there be more requirements? Tatsu looked through the letter again, hoping to find some clues about what he needed to do next. The academy seemed serious about preparation, mentioning the need for specialized equipment and training in addition to academic excellence. He'd also probably need a hero costume of some kind, though he had no idea where to start with that either. There were so many questions running through his mind, but one thing was for sure: he was excited to embark on this new chapter of his life.

As the days went by Tatsu found himself more and more restless as he tried to get everything ready for the start of the school year. He spent hours researching different types of hero costumes, trying to find one that fit his personality and powers. He also started working out more seriously, knowing that he would need to be in top physical condition if he wanted to succeed at this new academy. Though he wasn't exactly sticking to it as well as he had hoped but he had managed to gain some much needed muscle on his otherwise thin body.

With just a week before the start of school Tatsu was certain he managed to get everything done and there was absolutely nothing that could go wrong!

Hey guys! Sorry about the relatively short chapter! I've been super busy lately between work and uni and have mostly been working on other stories (it certainly didn't help that I had pretty bad writer's block for this chapter) but I'm glad to finally be done!

Hopefully the next chapter will be out sooner than this one was.

Also! Any ideas for what fears other characters will have? I want to see if anyone has similar ideas to what I'm thinking.

See ya!
