McDonald's
Chapter-2
[3 Months later]
"Fuu…"
Inside his room, Akira could be seen doing curl-ups as he was hanging upside down on a bar which he made using his 'projection'. Below him was a rubber mat which he brought a few weeks ago when he started this kind of practice. He started this practice after Sazu made him fill the U.A. application. He decided to take this a lot more seriously since Sazu seemed to be really passionate about it.
'114..'
This kind of training improves both his physical attributes and focus, even in exhausting situations.
'118..'
*Ring… Ring… Ring..*
He stopped his training as he looked over to his phone to see who was calling him.
'Kaminari?'
Akira hopped out of the bar and landed on his feet after doing a flip in the air. All the while the bar was still on the air, showing how much he has improved in this short time. He took a towel to wipe off his sweat as a green light engulfed his whole body. It was a trick he learned in this time span, since the only thing that his power depends on is his imagination he went on 'creative' with it.
The green light accelerates his healing to a very high degree, which is the reason for his very quick transformation from a normal dude to the one whom your girlfriend tells not to worry about.
Akira took his phone after wiping the sweat off and answered the call, "Hello."
[YO! Akira! Are you planning to go to the U.A. too!?]
"Yeah. Are you planning to go there too?" Akira asked.
[Of course! That's the only good school near Kamakura! Say, are you free this evening?]
"Umm… yeah. I don't have anything that important to do today." Akira thought of his schedule. Only to realise that he doesn't have one. He does whatever he wants to do at that moment.
[Then we'll meet at the McDonald's near the Seven Eleven at 3!-] Saying that Kaminari cut the call.
Akira stared at his phone for a second before opening the maps. He had no idea where Kaminari was talking about. He's only been to one McDonald's which is directly opposite to his apartment.
..................
"Yo! Akira! Here!" Kiminari waved his hands at Akira who just entered the fast food joint. He was wearing a black hoodie over his white shirt and black tracks. He wore a pair of white sneakers and a piercing on his right ear. He walked towards Kaminari and sat on the chair opposite to him.
"Look at you man! I haven't seen you for a few months and you've become hotter!" Kaminari shouted, he hasn't seen Akira since their graduation party. Since Akira wasn't very active in his social media either, Kaminari was shocked at how much Akira changed.
"And you've become louder." Akira commented and looked at the menu, he felt his stomach rumble even at the sight of the juicy burgers. The past days he's been eating nothing but bland and sorry excuses for food to put on muscles. So he was very eager to have a burger after a long time.
"I'll take that as a compliment." Kaminari smiled, "But I ain't kidding man. You went from Hawks to motherfucking Endeavour!"
"Well.. I trained daily."
"Is it because of the U.A. entrance exam?" Kaminari asked while Akira gave the order to the waitress.
"What about you sir?" The waitress asked Kaminari.
"Oh, I'm fine with anything a beauty like you brings me." He shamelessly tried to flirt with her.
"Haa.. please excuse my friend's behaviour, he's stupid. He'll have a big mac and sprite." Akira said to the waitress who laughed and left.
"Why do you gotta do me like that man? You may be able to get a girl with a face like that but look at me!" Kaminari fake cried. Akira looked at his face just like he said, "If a hot girl said she likes me, I will wait for my alarm to ring. That's how bad it is."
"You're exaggerating, women find character more attractive." Akira commented while looking at all the prices on the menu.
"Yeah but you should have a face they like first!" Kaminari pulled the menu from Akira's hand and asked, "Look me in the eyes and say honestly, will a girl like Midnight or Mt. Lady, ever like this face?"
Akira tried hard to not laugh and avoided looking at his eyes and said, "...no."
"See? I bet you'll become the 'popular kid' in the U.A. too. I won't get any bitches there too.." Kaminari laid on the table and started whining.
"That's kinda unavoidable with my handsome appearance and unmatched charm. And just for the record, I think Midnight is mid. I'm a Mirko lover through and through" Akira said, angering him even more.
"You asshole… my dream of getting a hot girlfriend will go unachieved… you're lucky I'm depressed otherwise I'll defend Midnight with all my love for her plumpus boobs."
"You'd get more girls if you stopped whining and started doing something productive. Your face may look like an inbred swine but a hot blind girl may still come to like you if you had the body of a Greek god."
"Did you have to be that harsh?" Kaminari said but soon started to think, "Wait… that's not a bad idea at all!"
He got up and asked Akira, "How do I get the body of a Greek god quickly Akira!?"
"Don't worry you got a department already covered." Akira smiled as he pointed down.
Kaminary blushed due to embarrassment, "It's not small, I'm just average!."
"We went to an Onsen together, I've seen your 'little' brother more than I wish to."
"It's grown since then!"
............…
"Damn~ that was a good damn burger!" Kaminari said loudly.
After having a hearty meal both Akira and Kaminari were sitting on a park bench. They both had a can of coke in their hand.
"Did you hear from others in our class?" Akira asked Kaminari. He wasn't active in social media but he knew Kaminari was chronically online.
"Yeah, most of them are enjoying their vacations out of town either at their grandparents' house or somewhere good. Kazui and Hiraki moved to Shibuya and Shizuka moved to Sendai. I heard they plan to pursue a hero course too. Now that I remember, I wanted to know why you suddenly got interested in becoming a hero Akira? You used to say you wanted to become an artist."
Akira finished taking a gulp of his coke and answered, "Well it's nothing noble. I just wanted to get rich and retire at 30."
"Heh, that's so like you. I also don't have a noble aim either, I wanna become a hero because all hot chick seem to join this course." Kaminari smiled.
"So, to get a successful admission! Cheers!"
"Cheers."
..................
"Your friend is nothing like you Akira." Sazu commented as he looked at Kaminari who awkwardly stared at the floor. "He lacks any sort of resolve. You should stop hanging out with him."
"Cut him some slack Sazu-san, he's just a kid."
'You're a kid too bastard!' Kaminari thought but didn't have the guts to say it out loud. He stared at Sazu's biceps and knew very well that his head would explode like a watermelon if Sazu crunched him. He really wasn't expecting this when Akira said he'll introduce him to his instructor.
"Well, since he's your friend I'll train him." Sazu gripped Kaminari's shoulder and grinned, "Get ready to beg brat!"
.
.
.
.
"Akira! Help me!" Kaminari shouted at Akira who was running on the treadmill.
"If you have energy to shout then do 10 more push-ups brat!" Sazu, who was standing near him shouted at him.
Akira acted like he heard nothing and turned on the noise-cancellation on his headphones, as he watched a series as he ran.
'You traitor!' Kaminari thought as he struggled to do 30 push-ups. He couldn't do it because Sazu counted only the ones which he considered to be perfect, so Kaminari didn't even reach 20.
'I fucking paid money to this gorilla to get treated like a masochist. If I had known this I would have gone for another gym which has a female trainer!'
...............…..
"This was a long day…" Akira sat on his couch exhausted. Soon a green light covered his body, healing him a bit, to stop the muscle aches. He recently named this application too, he just calls it, 'Healing aura'. Currently he focuses on his body more than his quirk.
He researched about the previous U.A. entrance exams. He's pretty confident on the writing test part since middle school grade questions are the last thing he's scared about. What truly worries him is the practical part. Since the year of its creation, the U.A. has used only 3 different types of entrance exams. Them being, destroying robots for points, battle royale for points and just overall physical examination.
Since the last two are heavily inefficient, the last few years destroying robots for points is the one which is being used.
"What's the most optimal way of destroying as much mechs as possible?" He wondered for a while before getting a perfect idea. He pulled out his phone and opened YouTube.
That whole night he spent on watching videos of how various kinds of guns work and their designs. He decided his strategy for getting the most points.

I tried my best. If it's not up to your satisfaction or if you find any mistakes or errors please feel free to mention. I'm a masochist thigh lover, of course I'll like the criticism.
