Song: July - Noah Cyrus
-------------------------------------------------------
One week passes and finally the results arrive. I return to my house after an afternoon jog and notice a large packet placed on the recycled denim welcome mat.
Reaching down to pick it up, I study the sizable envelope - the bold UA emblem sealing its contents. I unlock the door and enter the house, turning the packet over in my hand and absentmindedly weighing it. However I hesitate to open the package as thoughts of doubt flood my mind.
What if I didn't make it in? What if all my hard work and training just wasn't enough. Should I have just taken the easy way out and used my father's name to get in on a recommendation?
I fidget with the edges of the paper for a moment. Half of me wants to tear open the packet and the other half wants to throw up. Flipping the envelope over for the umpteenth time the sharp design of my soulmarks catch my attention.
That's right - I have to keep pushing forward so that when we meet I can make you proud.
Faced with constant rejection from my father, I have always found comfort in the fact that someone out there is meant for me. Someone I can rely on to catch me when I fall. Someone who won't limit me by pointing out my imperfections, as if I don't already see them.
My resolve returns to me as I hum to myself to calm my nerves. I carefully open the letter and pull out a bunch of paperwork and a small metal disk. Rotating the disk in my hand, I examine it before setting it down on the coffee table in the center of my room. Upon contact with the flat surface the disk suddenly lights up displaying a projected image of an emaciated man dressed in an over-sized yellow suit with black pin-stripes. The man beams down at me, his skeletal like features set in a proud smile.
"ALL MIGHT!" I yell excitedly.
Jeez he looks worse every time I see him.
"I AM HERE - AS A PROJECTION!" All Might's voice booms out of the disk as he briefly transforms into his muscle form. Shrinking down to his original size he continues after a few rough coughs: "I hope you are doing well young L/N. I am pleased to inform you that - YOU PASSED THE UA ENTRANCE EXAM!! Well done!"
WOW! What a relief! I don't even care how I actually did, all that matters is that I made it! There must have been so many capable students. To think that I was actually good enough to be among them is an accomplishment in and of itself.
The All Might projection opens his arms to me, his jubilant emotion at my success is almost tangible through the digital display of the small disk. "You placed first overall in the exam with 58 Villain points and 25 Rescue points, totaling 83 points!" He leans forward with his pointer finger raised matter-of-factly, "These results are not surprising considering your abilities, courage, and tenacity. Congratulations Young Lady!"
A goofy smile spreads across my face after hearing that I was not only accepted into my dream school, but that I had also done incredibly well in the exam. Whilst I begin letting this incredible information sink in my soulmate marks start to give off a warm sensation. The heat is comforting as it rises through my arms and into my chest. The warmth takes over my body and stirs up feelings of overwhelming pride and confidence in my heart - the level of which is quite unexpected given my usually humble nature.
"Of course I got in, I'm the best!" I blurt out. I slap a hand over my mouth alarmed at my sudden outburst.
What the hell - that's not like me! I did well but I still feel lucky to have gotten in at all.
