Red POV

I let out a huff becoming bored of the book I was reading about genetics and I closed it and dropped it beside me on my bed.
How the scientists were so fascinated in this stuff I will never know...
I was half expecting a response but remembered they was "resting."
Guess I can't blame them... They are active much longer then I am.

I suddenly felt my phone vibrate next to me. I checked the screen and saw a text from Pony.

Short horse- I just saw my letter from UA and guess what?
Spectrum- Did you get in?
Short horse- Yep! :D
Spectrum- I'll tell you if I get in.
Short horse- K

I put my phone in my pocket and heard Jack shout me from the door.

"Red! Guess what just came through the mail!" Jack was smiling and leaning forwards through my door.

"UA letters?" I asked knowing full well we never get anything in the mail and Pony had just got hers.

"Oh... Well yeah but... You kind of ruined that, here..." Jack sighed as he passed me the letter with a huff and left to check his.

I sat in my desk and placed the letter on my desk and stared at it.
Here we go... Would they really let a quirkless in? Even if I am so... No one really noticed before, maybe I should keep them guessing... If I get in...
I then shakily opened the letter and a circular device slid out. I was confused for a second before a hologram appeared above it.

I listened closely at what they had to say, they mentioned that I had forty combat points and thirty rescue points.
I didn't know they had rescue points...
Then they looked a little shocked for a second but continued. "Your combat skill was... Interesting but very good as you managed to take down the zero point robot by yourself." They told me showing a screen next to them of me destroying its hand as it grabbed me before I climbed into its shoulder joint and it exploded moments after.
"Your technique of splitting up... Well, yourself also caught the attention of the judges as you saved people as well as taking down robots. With your score of seventy you have... Succeeded with flying colours! And your written exam score was perfect! Well done Red Yuukit, you are a part of UA. This is your hero academia!"
With that the hologram disappeared and I was left in shock. I'm in? Wait... That was all might... Is he a teacher now?

All of a sudden Jack burst in the room with a huge smile.
"I'm in! I'm part of UA!" He ran at me and hugged me.

"Same here. Turned out I took down the zero pointer." I laughed happily and sighed. Jack seemed to notice what I said as he pushed away from me in shock.

"What!? How!?" He ran a hand through his hair hysterically and laughed in an insane tone.
What's up with him?... Did I remind him of something... Maybe about the labs?...

"Are you OK? You seem a little... Insane?" I asked carefully. I didn't want to say anything wrong as even I haven't seen him like this before.

"I'm fine just happy I guess..." Jack sighed as he left the room, closing the door behind him.

I took my phone out of my pocket and told Pony about my results, we talked for a while before getting bored and I finished with saying I was going to train more.

I looked in my mirror and sighed in relief. I continued to stare in an almost hypnotised state. I was wearing dark blue jeans, green canvas shoes, a golden silk scarf and a white T-shirt with blue sleeves, it looked a bit flashy but I had to get used to wearing these colours to show my personalities, it started with gold wanting to wear more of his colour then Teal, Shugo didn't ask but it would have felt wrong to leave him out.

I turned away from the mirror feeling like I was wasting time but something felt... Wrong, like I was being watched and it was like seeing a full puzzle but one of the pieces looked wrong while still fitting. I turned back to the mirror... I wish I hadn't... Because what I saw...

I saw myself in a white uniform, stained with blood all over it. The room I was in was different too, a locker room by the looks of it also blood everywhere... There was corpses on littering the ground, decapitated, dismembered, the heads... All showing scared and painful expressions, showing how they felt as they died.

I didn't react... Not for at least a full minute... I stumbled in shock and closed my eyes tight, I wished for it to go away... I lifted my head, I saw myself in my room through my large mirror.
Just hallucinating?...
I stood up, my legs wobbling slightly as I stumbled out my door and into the garden.
What happened?
"Its nothing... Just tired." I sighed as I began punching the bag hanging from the tree.

I was glad he didn't push more but instead took over slowly. I watched as he punched the bag for over an hour without rest. I couldn't sleep, I was in a traumatised daze as I sat and watched.
Remember... I'm always here for you...
