Walking to the class proved to be more of a problem than I had expected. Especially considering then firecracker walking next to me began to shout at everyone who even dared to make a move in front of him. When we arrived at our classroom a enormous door was waiting for us. Without thinking I confidently opened it. There were a few students already inside and they began to look at me since I had opened the door quite agrresively. I left katsuki in the dust while looking for my desk. I found it shortly since I had checked the places I liked most first. My desk was right near the window and father to the back. I looked around for katsuki finding that he was sitting right behind me. "Cool we'll be sitting near each other" I said as I sat down he merely muttered a "what a fucking pain in my ass". Class didn't start for another ten minutes so I Decided I might as well just listen to music. I listened to music for a song or two before I noticed uraraka and midoriya and a strange man wearing what seemed like a sleeping bag. And I couldn't help but stifle a chuckle as that's what I bet we were all feeling inside as it was somewhat early in the morning. I waved over to them as they began looking for their seats. To my shock the man who was wearing a sleeping bag early was actually our teacher.

He began explaining to us that he was our home room teacher and that we should address him as Mr. Aizawa. He also mentioned that our lesson for the day was going to be testing our capabilities. Somewhat threatening he said the person with the lowest score would be expelled. Uraraka and few others complained that it wasn't fair and that they had just gotten there. I agreed slightly but also didn't. After this school we were going to be pushed out into the real world so we needed to be prepared for the unfairness of everything. Mr  aizawa said something along the lines of what I was thinking except a lot harsher.
Looking to the side of the classroom the wall opened up reveal small compartments, that held our hero costumes.

Me and the rest of the girls rushed to the locker rooms, to change into the  school uniforms. We met the boys outside on the field waiting for our teacher to arrive. While waiting I stood next to bakugo and some other girls. I stared straight ahead waiting for our lesson to begin until I felt piercing eyes bore into me. I looked to the side meeting scarlet eyes. Bakugo looked away once our eyes met focusing on the mr Aizawa as we walked out. I whipped my head to the side shaking off the feeling of that intensity. 

"Bakugo, (l/n)" mr aizawa called out. Bakugo grunted an I hummed in recognition. "Get up here I'll have you two demonstrate as you got the highest scores on the test." We stepped up feeling our peers staring at us in shock. I even heard a few people mutter."she got the highest score she seems like she couldn't hurt a fly" I muttered under my breath a small I know. Bakugo glances at my intimidating glare an all.

Bakugo got up into the ring and began to stretch before aizawa even told him the instructions of the assessment. "Bakugo this ball I'm going to hand you has a distance tracker on it I'm going to give it to you and I want you to throw it with all you've got" aizawa said while handing him the ball.  He stepped back, muscles pulsing as he threw the ball with great force. A loud die was heard as there was an earth shaking explosion. Die? What a funny phrase. My hair was blown out of my face as air came rushing towards me due to the explosion. The People behind me looked absolutely blown away if not literally as aizawa held up the device with the numbers 263 miles. Even I was somewhat shocked. Aizawa called me up next and Bakugo has a smug look on his face. I shrugged not really caring whether I beat his score or not. I stepped up into the ring as aizawa handed me the ball I stretched my arms and quads. Backing up in the ring as I ran forward with a burst of speed using around 15% of my power. The ball shot into the atmosphere encased in blue. It took quite a while for the ball to land an when it did I surprised myself with a score of 723 miles. I shrugged on the outside even though I was super happy on the inside an walked back to the line standing next to a grumbling Bakugo. I could feel people staring at me. Amazed at my score. As the day continued on we completed the assessments. I came in first of second most of the time. Midoriya came in last which made me concerned for him as his power was to strong for his body to handle or so it seemed. Aizawa announced that he was no longer expelling the last place holder. Which had me confused. He was so obviously willing to expel midoriya until he proved he could fight without breaking every bone in his body. How strange but commendable.

We went back to the locker rooms to change an I noticed a bunch of the girls walking up to me asking for my phone number which I gave happily. It was the first time someone was even remotely interested in being my friend. Which made me so happy.

I went back to home room to grab my backpack to head home for the day as the bell had rung a few minutes ago. I noticed Bakugo leaving so I swung my bag over my shoulder and caught up to him. We didn't talk as we walked home we had a mutual respect of being silent with each other. As I reached my house I said goodbye and he said goodbye as well though it was in his own unique way as he had said piss off round eyes. I chuckled and ran up my stairs to my apartment to be greeted by Shizuka raving up to me am jumping on to my uniform. She burrowed her face in my neck as I cradled her to the living room floor where I began to work on my homework.

As I finished my homework and got ready for bed  I couldn't help but feel excited for the things that were to come for me. Good and bad, I would accept them graciously in my arms.
