Double Life

3: Entrance Exam

               Once we get to the room where the entrance exams are being viewed I get a lot of strange looks since I mostly avoid teachers when I come to study with Nezu. But luckily none of them say anything. We sit down and I turn to look at the screens. All of the examinees are outside there gates stretching or standing around. All but a lilac haired boy. 'Hmm, I wonder why he is just sitting in the shade. Maybe it has something to do with his quirk. Or maybe he doesn't want to use all his energy before the exams, unlike other people. I will have to keep an eye on him.'

               Suddenly present mic yells GO and most of the examinees go running at least they have some common sense. The lilac haired boy seems to not have a quirk and has taken to trying to hit the switches at the bottom of the robots. Or maybe he just has a quirk like Aizawa's that has to be used on people I will have to check that out later. I decide I have to look at others testing. There is a boy that looks familiar with spiky ash-blond hair but I don't know from where, and then I see his quirk.

Get the fuck away from me nerd!

You're just so useless

Why are you even still here

You're not worth anyone's time

Why don't you take a swan dive off the roof then you would finally do some good to the world

               "Whoa, hey kid breath. inhale..........Exhale............Inhale............Exhale...... there you go calm down" 'I didn't realize that I had been hyperventilating...Shoot now there going to want to know what is going on with me' I also feel Novi inside my jacket trying to comfort me without being noticed. I look up to see that Aizawa of all people was the one to be helping me and all the other teachers were just watching me.

               I quickly write in my notebook "I'm sorry"

               "Kid there's no reason to be sorry it's not your fault you went into a panic attack. Now I understand if you don't want to say now why it happened but, you should tell Nezu later." 'oh, so he actually cares, hmm I wonder where his tough-guy act went. I decided to just nod my head and turn to the screens to watch the rest of the entrance exams.

*~*Time Skip*~*

               Once we were back in the safety of Nezu's office Nezu turns this huge whiteboard with all of the examinees on it. I already had all of the kids that made it into the hero course in a group. The rest of them were just hanging out in no evident order. He then turns to me and asks about who caught my eye. I immediately search the board for the lilac haired insomniac. His picture finally appears with the name Hitoshi Shinso. 'Hmm, so Shinso's his name I hope I get to see him around some more. He seems distant like me.'

               "Hitoshi Shinso, whats his quirk? It didn't look like he was using it at all during the exams" I ask stopping myself from rambling.

               Nezu's eyes gleam "Ahh I knew it the second I saw him sitting by himself that he was going to pique your interest. As for his quirk, it is called brainwashing and he can make people listen to him as long as they answer him" 'ooh such a nice quirk not flashy but can stop collateral damage.'

               I quickly reply "I want him in the hero's course"

               "Ok but I think that you should totter him in the hand to hand combat. I seems as though he will need more help in that department than others to make up for his quirk's properties. Then, you can also start talking to more kids your age"

               "Umm I guess, let me know more on that later but I need to leave before I am late to work" I turn to leave but, I am stopped by Aizawa walking in.

               "So kid what was that panic attack for earlier." 'no no no I don't want to talk about him. I guess I can tell Aizawa the basics"

               I hall my notebook out of my bag turn to an unused page and write down "Well you see I saw one of my childhood friends and I guess I was just startled to see him after 5 years." that should satisfy him.

               Aizawa just looked at me with such a face of disbelief "I know that isn't it. You don't just get a panic attack for seeing an old friend there is more to this then your telling us. Now, tell us the whole story or your not leaving" 'Agghh fine you win this time Aizawa'

               "Well he kinda bullied me since I got my quirk do to it being a useless Neko quirk"

               "We aren't letting them into any of the classes then just tell us his name." Aizawa looked like he was about to beat someone. What happened to him like damn calm down Aizawa.

               "No, you can't do that it was years ago and it's not like he was wrong anyways"

"Kid, I can't make you tell me what their name is but, no quirk is useless. If you see them again face to face and they start to insult you again you have to tell us otherwise we would be letting someone unfit to become a hero become a hero." (I hope that sentence made any sense.) Has Aizawa always been this overprotective? I just nod as a response and walk out to go to work at the animal shelter.
