All the students were standing outside around a track field and staring in shock (except Kinich bc yk he's best boi) as Aizawa was facing his back at them, "A TEST OF OUR QUIRKS?!" The Plain looking girl walked toward the pro hero, "What about the entrance ceremony?! Or guidance sessions?!" it was almost as if she was panicking, but their teacher stood firm "No time to waste on that stuff if you want to become heroes"

"UA is known for its "freestyle" educational system. That applies to us teachers as well," as he turned around to face the students, Aizawa listed off the tests

"Softball throwing

The standing long jump.

The 50 meter dash

Endurance running.

Grip strength.

Side-to-side stepping.

Upper-body training.

Seated toe touch."

"You did all these in middle school, yes? Your standard no-quirks-allowed gym tests," holding two softballs in his hand, the hero continued his spiel as he lobbed one over to Kinich, who caught it and handed it to Calix to play with his siblings, "This country still insists on prohibiting quirks when calculating the averages of those records. It's not rational. The department of education is just procrastinating. Bakugo."

Aizawa pointed a finger in the loud blond student's direction, "How far could you throw in middle school?"

"Sixty-seven meters"

"Great," the softball was thrown at Bakugo and he caught it with one hand, "Now try it with your quirk. Do whatever you need to. Just don't leave the circle. Give it all you got"

Holding the ball in hand, the blond stretched his arms before turning toward the group of watching students as he to a pitcher's pose (like baseball bc idk),

"Awesome."

He reeled back his arm before snapping it forward, igniting an explosion in the palm of his hand, sending the ball off with a BOOM as he screamed, "DIE!!"

The ball rocketed to the air, whipping the students' hair around their faces as it soared through the sky. The noise startled the little whelps who were amusing themselves with the other softball, they lifted their heads to watch the smoky arc in the air. Darya being the shy one, grabbed Kinich's pant leg as her brothers' eyes lit up at the display. Their excited chirps were sure signs of mischief as everyone watched the ball landed in the distance

A little beeping was heard from a small device in Aizawa's had as he spoke once again, "It's important for us to know our limits," flipping around the device, it showed 705.2 meters, "That's the first rational step to figuring out what kind of heroes you'll be"

"WHOA!! THIS IS AWESOME!!"

"705 meters? Seriously?"

"So we CAN use our quirks!! Man, the hero course is GREAT!!"

The students excitement grew, both scheming whelps started to race to where the softball landed, the one they had before was left forgotten as the prize of a new ball awaited them

"Bijou! Calix!" The sudden call arrested the attention of the students, every single one turning to stare at Kinich. The teen was holding the yumkasaur by the scruff of his neck as his tail whipped from side to side in annoyance, Darya letting out little squeals of laughter at her brother's predicament. However, Kinich wasn't staring at Calix, instead he was glaring at the little trail of jewels that were appearing and disappearing as Bijou dug his way towards the ball that was resting on the ground

A small guttural escaped past his lips as Kinich covered his face with his hand, "Ajaw, can you-?"

"Yeah, I got it," the students watched as a small yellow-pixelated dragon emerged and ran toward the trail of gems that ended with Bijou's brown, little face holding the softball in his hands triumphantly. They saw the dragon transform midair into a handsome young man who grabbed the tepetlisaur whelp, "Gotcha!"

Despite Bijou's protests, the dark-skinned teen wrangled the ball away from the little saurian's hands and started to walk back toward the group. Seeing the situation was solved, Kinich gave a small apologetic nod toward Aizawa and placed Calix down next to Darya,who was still letting out squeaks of enjoyment, said prohero just gave a sigh, before gaining the students attention again

"You're hoping to become heroes after three years here...and you think it'll be all fun and games?" he raised his eyes slightly to make eye contact with the now cowering students, "Right. The one with the lowest score across all eight events will be judged hopeless...and will be expelled."

"WHAAAAAAA?!" Kinich watched as his classmates' eyes widened in fear in shock.

Aizawa pushed back his hair and put on a deranged expression as he faced the students "Your fates are in our hands. Welcome. This is the hero course of UA HIGH!""

Extra #1:
While observing the display of bravado, Ajaw reached Kinich with a pouty Bijou in his hands, "Heh heh heeeeh, he takes after me!" The smaller one just turned to Ajaw and watched him shower the moping whelp with compliments, "You're gonna grow up and fulfill my legacy as the LEGENDARY DRAGONLORD!"

Leaning close to the dragonlord's ear, Kinich whispered, "Ajaw"

"Huh? What is it servant?" At his voice, Ajaw paused his compliments and placed Bijou on the ground with his siblings

"Thanks for getting Bijou" Kinich crouched down to the three whelps playing with his tail again, allowing a small smile to break his normally stoic nature. The response surprised Ajaw so much that he froze for a moment. After a few minutes, the dragon slipped his phone out of his pocket and snapped a picture of the scene.

Unlocking his phone, Ajaw quickly navigated to his photos and favorited the picture
