A few battle centres to the right, in block E, Hana was doing his best to rack up as many points as possible too. He swiped his hand to the right as a two-point robot crawled into view. The large venus flytrap extending from his shoulder crashed into the large machine, pinning it against the building beside it and chewing through the tube of its neck.

"That's twenty nine," Hana panted to himself, his rose-gold locks dripping with sweat and plastered against his scalp. It was six minutes in and he didn't have much longer to score enough points to get into U.A.. Hana could hear someone screaming nearby and quickly turned his attention around to face it. A girl with shaggy white hair and olive skin was stumbling away from one of those terrifying three pointers.

Oh the poor darling, I need to save her! he called himself to action. Without any sign of plant life in this urban setting, he had no choice but to use his own body to grow plants from. Plants grown from his body consumed his own fluids and proteins, so it ate at his energy if he used his Quirk on himself too much.

Hana ran towards the large robot and stopped a few feet away. Sliding up the leg of his thin track pants, Hana formed a small green sprout from his calf, which thickened and straightened into a spike. The thorn drove itself into the earth and buried itself in the ground, pulling more of the plant with it. Without warning, an enormous wooden spike pierced the machine from bottom to top, destroying its head and disabling it. He detached the plant from his leg and jogged over to the girl on the ground.

"Are you alright, my dear?" he asked and held a hand out to her. She gave him a soft smile and grabbed his hand, allowing herself to be pulled up.

"Yeah, I am, thanks. I guess I just didn't save up enough power for my Quirk, I have to be careful with it from now on or I'm not gonna pass this exam," she sighed and ran her fingers through her ivory locks. I've got thirty two points now, I should have time to spare to help a sister out, Hana told himself.

"Come with me sweetie, I can restrain the bots and you can destroy them, sound good?" he asked, and the girl nodded joyfully.

"If you wouldn't mind being so kind, that would be great." With that, the two of them ran down the street in search of more machines.

"Maran, let me rebuild that building! It's a structural risk that could injure other students!" Taio growled as he aimed his pale hand at a concrete tower laden with cracks. A machine had been thrown against it by another student and caused heavy structural damage.

"Blah blah blah, I can't hear you, don't have time for others, we gotta pass this!" Maran spat back as he directed his darker palm towards an encroaching villain bot. Furrowing his brow, Taio refused to let Maran use his power. "Dude, what are you doing, there's a bot right freaking there!!"

"Yep, and there's a building right there that could severely injure some students. So let me fix the building and you can have your points," Taio reasoned with his conjoined brother. Maran snorted in defeat.

"Fine, have your stupid order powers. What use is a power that does nothing but help others anyway?" he grumbled, and a black aura enveloped his palm. A wave of dark energy rumbled forth and disassembled the two point villain bot with ease. At the same time, Taio's hand glowed a bright white, and the cracks in the building followed. They shone a brilliant ivory, before it faded into nothingness, leaving no signs of damage behind.

"What's that now?" Taio asked.

"Thirty five, doing good."

"Alright, just keep it up, and try not to be too reckless with those destructive powers of yours," Taio warned his brother, who just grunted ignorantly.

"Forty three," the girl shouted loudly as a beam of white light shot through the torso of the machine in front of her. Hana retracted the vines he'd been using to hold the bot in place back into his forearm.

"Awesome job, hun," Hana congratulated her, holding his hand out for a high five. She gave his hand a soft slap with hers.

"Thanks, that should get me through. Use the last few minutes to keep your score up too, okay?" she suggested before starting to head off, waving over her shoulder at Hana.

"Will do. Hope you pass!" he called back, before turning his attention to the couple one-pointers that just scooted into view. "This should be thirty four," he muttered to himself as a long stem extended from the middle of his back. The end of the stem sprouted into a beautiful purple flower with a golden centre. A moment later, the petals sharpened and chiseled into razor-like edges, and the deadly flower began whizzing at the machines like a flying buzzsaw.

"Crap, Tai, I missed!" Maran shouted as his leg staggered backwards. Taio snapped to attention and held their ground with his leg. He raised his hand up above their heads and a white glow pulsed in front of them, slamming into the robot and scooting it backwards along the concrete.

"Maran, now!" He passed control back over to his darker brother, who swung his fist downward, cloaked in black energy, and slammed it into the ground. The asphalt ruptured in a fissure and toppled the machine above it, sending it crashing onto its side. Taio smiled and turned to his brother, holding his hand up. "Nice job bro."

"Psh, it was nothing." He clapped his hand against Taio's and sighed. "Think we've got enough points?"

"And that's time!" a voice bellowed across the speaker system, echoing across the fake city. "Well done to you all. Please exit your battle centers and head home. We look forward to sending you all your results."

"Whether we do or not, that's it," Taio simpered and began to move to walk off. Maran followed his lead and headed towards the exit.
