I could feel the discomfort permeating the air, Who wouldn't? They had just made a joke that was so incredibly indescribably rude. I pulled my blindfold down so that it hung around my neck and then turned around. This gave them a moment to take in my facial features, most notably my cloudy gray eyes.

Among the murmurs of "Oh wow, he wasn't kidding," and "what do you think that staff is for," I heard one statement that went something along the lines of "hey, he's kind of cute." I tilted my head as I zeroed in on the source of the comment, and discovered it came from a messy haired girl with what appeared to be horns poking out of her head. She had leaned over to whisper to her neighbor who had long appendages dangling from her ears. I must admit that I thought that the girl who had spoken was kind of cute as well.

I involuntarily let large smile break out on my face, and then I started to laugh. "Oh man, I wish you could see your own faces right now, they're absolutely priceless!"

The same spiky haired boy that had called me a dumbass jumped up out of his chair and a small explosion went off in his hand. "Did you just try to make a fool out of me? I'm going to tear you a new one!"

"Oh no, I didn't have to try anything, I really am clinically blind. I can't see anything that isn't a physical object. And I cant see anything that's more than 20 meters away from me."

"How the hell does that even work? Are you blind or not?" The exloding boy yelled.

"Yes and no." I know it wasn't nice, but I couldn't help messing with this guy.

"God damn it, give me a straight answer!"

At this point Mr. Aizawa stepped in to seize control of the situation. "Bakugo sit down. I would like to finish my class before the school day is over."

The boy that I now knew as Bakugo obeyed Mr. Aizawa, but it was clear he didn't like doing so. I heard him grumbling about some not so nice things he'd do to me the next time I pulled something like that.

Aizawa then pointed towards one of the back corners of the room. "You can have the empty seat in the back, the one next to the window. I'm assuming that if your statement from earlier was accurate, you can find your own way there." I nodded and made my way to my seat as aizawa finished speaking. "Alright where was I? Oh yeah, I want you to put these on and make your way out to training field B."

I sat in my seat and almost immediately raised my hand, "um sir, where exactly are we going to change, I didn't see any locker rooms on my way up here."

"For now you can use the classroom to change, you'll get a tour of the school from another teacher when we're finished. I'll be waiting for all of you down at the field," and with that he walked out."

If his plan was to cause absolute pandemonium it most certainly succeeded. I saw one boy who was very small in stature start muttering to himself about breasts and underwear, so I immediately labeled him as a pervert. The girls wasted no time in banishing all of us men from the classroom so they could change privately.

While we were in the hallway the very short boy started sweating profusely and tried clawing his way up to the door window. I quickly spun around with my staff (which hadn't left my hands this whole time) and hit him hard enough he bounced off the door and fell to the ground. I squatted down and spoke to him, "I'm only going to tell you this once. I don't like perverts, so don't try something like that again, ok?" I gave him a smile and stood back up.

"Oh wow Mineta, he doesn't look like he's joking." A boy with sharp jagged teeth and spiky hair said.

"I regret nothing Kirishima!"

"You'll never change will you, anyways," Kirishima turns and looks at me, "I've been meaning to ask, what's the deal with that staff and the blindfold?"

"Well, both have something to do with my quirk, but since the girls are done changing, my story will have to wait for lunch."

"What do you mean the girls are do-" he cut himself off as a girl with incredibly long hair that was in a ponytail opened the door.

Minetas still prostrate body slowly rolled to the side to avoid being stepped on as the girls left the classroom.

"How did you know that the girls were done changing," asked a boy with a large burn scar on the left side of his face.

"You'll have to find me at lunch to hear that tale, I'll be expecting a decent sized audience when i tell you all. Now, as entertaining as it would be to see how long we can test Mr. Aizawas patience, i'd rather leave a good first impression on my first day." They seemed to agree with me so we entered the classroom, changed into our PE uniforms, and then went down to the field.

Down at the training field Aizawa was waiting for us tossing what looked like a softball up into the air and catching it when it fell. There were several machines that looked like cameras set up at several different points on the field."It looks like your all here, good. We're going to have a quirk assessment test right now."

Everyone in the class exclaimed, "Wait, What?"

A round faced girl with long bangs framing her face cried out, "But what about first year orientation? We're going to miss it."

"If you really want to make the big leagues you can't waste time on pointless ceremonies."

The class was somewhat taken aback by Aizawas statement.

"Here at Yuuei we aren't tethered to tradition. That means that I get to run my class as I see fit." He turned and looked at us. "You've been taking standardized tests most of your lives, but you never got to use your quirks in physical exams before. The country is still trying to pretend that we're all created equal. We're not. It as simple as that. Bakugo, you got the most points on the entrance exam.
What was your farthest throw with a softball in middle school?

"67 meters I think."

Aizawa tossed him the ball in his hand and pulled a phone out of his pocket. "Try it now, while using your quirk."

Bakugo stepped up to the marker in the ground, took a deep breath as he wound up and yelled "DIE!!" A large explosion propelled the ball up into the air and well out of my sight.

Aizawa turned the phone towards us and everybody except for me gasped.
"I take it that he threw it pretty far then?" I asked with a bit of sarcasm.

The girl to my left, which I noticed was the same girl that called me cute in class, leaned over and said to me, "He threw it over 700 meters. I didn't even know that was possible, by the way, My names Mina Ashido."

"Oh yeah," Kirishima cheered, "This is what I'm talking about, using our quirks as much as we want."

"This looks fun!" Ashido agreed.

"This looks fun?" Aizawa asked, he turned and looked at us with a malicious gleam in his eyes. "How about this, whoever comes in last will be deemed hopeless and immediately expelled."
