The Two Antiheroes (BNHA Fanfic)

ᑕᕼᗩᑭTᗴᖇ 3

The next day, mom calls me from the living room while I'm reading on my bed. I rush to her and see an envelope. She gives it to me holding my hands. I don't even know what I'm feeling.

She seems amused and smiles at me.
"It'll be fine. No matter what happens, I'm here."

I nod and walk back to my room. There might be a tiny little chance that I got in. Right?

As I sit on my bed, I open the envelope and start to read:

At first, I didn't know how to react. But this says I still have a chance. I do still have a chance. But what will mom think? I have to show her...

I stand up and walk to the living room. Mom looks at me from the couch, feeling the little hope I still have inside. She takes my letter and reads it. After a while she looks back at me. She's... smiling? I look confused and she laughs.

"Kanjo. You did your best. The Principal is saying you can make it to the Hero Department. You should be proud of yourself."

She takes the phone from her lap.

"I'm going to call your dad. He's going to be so happy for you."

I blink several times. I absolutely didn't expect that.

I'm freaking out so badly right now. I'm going to go to UA. I still can't believe it. My parents had showed me their support, so it's my turn to show them my worth.

I take a deep breathe and head to the bus stop. This time my mom made my buns. I want to give a first good impression. I was wearing the school uniform. I don't like skirts, I feel uncomfortable in them. So I'm wearing shorts under it. And I had to learn how to wear a tie. My bag was hanging from my shoulder as I was waiting for the bus. I hear footsteps and see a familiar face next to me.

"Hey." He greets me with a faint smile.

It's Shinsou! And he's wearing the same uniform as me! I smile back at him.

"Hi Shinsou. How was the exam?"

Now he's feeling upset while keeping a straight face. Why? He passed, didn't he? However, his chest feels heavy.

"I..."

Before he could say anything the bus arrives and he gets in before me. I decide to sit next to him at the back. He doesn't look at me. Something happened. I just decide not to keep asking and talk about mine.

"I didn't pass."

Now he turns his face at me surprised. I give him a nervous smile.

"I messed up."

He shifts his gaze to his lap and he seems to relax a little.

"I didn't pass either. I'm going to General Education. But I'm not going to give up."
His determined eyes give me chills.
"I'm going to get into the Hero Course."

That was admirable. I look up to this guy.
"I'm sure you will. And I'll go with you."

"You want to change class too?"

I nod. "I'm at General Education and I want to become a hero too. I don't want to stay where they put me. We can help each other."

Shinsou smirks and offers me a fist bump. I gladly accept it.
"So... Nento, right?"
I nod once again.
"What's your quirk?"

"I can feel people's energy and change it too. That's why I didn't pass. They thought controlling others was risky. So I didn't really do anything..."
I started to feel a bit gloomy, and Shinso noticed.

"Hey, I did something similar. My quirk is brainwashing. If you answer to my voice I can control your body."
He gives me a sympathetic look.
"We're not very different from each other."

I can see he wants to cheer me up. He's nice. I feel like we're going to be good friends. And I'm definitely gonna help him. We're gonna become heroes. Together.
