I stood there in front of the school's gate just thinking about my two choices, 'I could stay and try, or run home without knowing.' I was so lost in thought I didn't realise that someone had came out of the school and was standing in front of me, but once they tapped me on the shoulder I was startled. Even though they did give me a spook, I didn't give any signs of it. I looked them in the eyes, and that's when I realised who it was... Eraserhead. This was my hero the one I've looked up to for years upon years. Just being able to look him in the eyes once made me feel accomplished, but now I really wanted to go in there and pass the entrance exam just to be able to see my idle here or there (maybe even be one of his students).

Once I stopped my inner fanboy moment I asked him, "What do you need, sir?" After I asked him that he responded with, "I need to know what your doing here." My answer was, "I came here for the entrance exam." He stared at me for a moment before replying, "Do you realise you're an hour early?" I responded with, "Really I thought I was just going to be around 30 minutes early when I started walking here." There was a moment of silence before he answered, "Would you like to go ahead and come inside and wait for the exam to start?" I kindly answered, "Thank you, I would greatly appreciate it."

The two of us walked inside and went to where the exam would take place. On the way there I was really happy and excited, but decided to keep it to myself along with some questions I wanted to ask him. My thoughts were 'If I make it into the school then I will ask him my questions because by then I think I would at least have the right ti ask.' After a few minutes I was in what looked like an auditorium. He told me where to sit and then he said, "Stay here, later the other applicants will be arriving," then he left.

I sat there and waited, then -after about fifty minutes- I heard people walking towards the door. After a couple of seconds a huge group of teenagers entered. I was petrified by how many there were, but like always I kept it to myself. When people started to walk down to the first row they noticed me already sitting at the first seat. So I got some questioning looks, but I really didn't care. After a few minutes everyone was sat down and quite. I could tell all of them were nervous, no matter how hard they tried to put up a confident front.

While I was skanning the group I noticed a lot of other people skanning as well. Some of them would stop and look at me for a moment, but I had a feeling I already knew why. It was probably because of the way I carried myself, and how I had the most convincing confident facade out of everyone in the room. But I still noticed a few others that looked like complete and utter confidence, I actually couldn't tell if their confidence was real or fake. After a few minutes of this Present Mic came out and gave all of us a speech about trying our hardest on the written exam.

The written exam took about 1 hour, after everyone was done Present Mic came back out and told us that there was also going to be a second part of the entrance exam, and we would have to fight robots. The second he said we would have to fight robots I got excited, but also a little curious 'What is the the catch? Yes, there has to be something extra about this... An extra thing that we won't pay attention to, since we're to focussed on destroying the robots that we won't care about something more important that is going on... But, what is it?'
