Entrance Exam 2

Walking out onto the street I start to get a move on. If I miss the train then there's no chance I'm making it to the exam in time.

As I briskly strode pass on comers on my way to the station many of them spewed some sort of encouraging nonsense to me.

"Show those guys at UA who's boss!"

"Go smash it today Benimaru!"

"Good luck with the exam!"

"I made daifuku!"

Well maybe not the last one. That old bat's daifuku's going to be the death of me, she puts way to much sugar in them. Probably contains enough of it to kill a small animal.

Still I never told anyone other than Konro and the twins. He must've snuck around telling everyone, while I was away.

After breaking free from everyone, I finally managed to arrive at the station.

On the platform were others just like me, all prepared for the entrance exam to the famous UA high school's hero course.

Not having to wait long the train arrives, and I hop on along with the others. It's an hour trip from here to the nearest station so I plug my headphones in and prepared to relax for the rest of the trip.

---------------------------------

After getting off the train I made my way for UA, it ended up arriving slightly head of schedule so there was no rush as I moved through the city to my destination.

Soon enough the gates of UA were in front of me. The vibrant mix of colours that coated the ground gave the entire complex an energetic feel.

As I walked through the front gate I passed a girl holding this freckly guy up with her quirk. Looks like he was in the middle of falling. Shame, would've been pretty funny to watch.

Although, his facial expressions just now are equally hilarious. Seems like someone's not got much experience talking to girls.

After having my fun, I entered the building where the written exam would take place.

Once inside we were escorted in groups to our desks, all that was left was to wait for the papers. I was feeling confident about my chances for passing so there was no panic as the written exam was placed on my desk

-------------------

After the exam timer ran out we got moved to a large theatre where we waited for the instructor to give us the run down on the practical section.

The lights are cut darkening the room, a spot light shines on stage revealing the pro hero Present Mic.

Who the immediately tried to get the crowd going, but the clearly never got the MEMO so he quickly got on with explaining the practical.

During his explanation we were given cards that told us which site we'll be attending for the exam.

This is when some guy who looks like the definition of straight laced asks Mic a question about the fourth 'Villain' that he hadn't gone over, while at the same time chastising the same messy haired boy I saw at the gate. The little skit got some laughs from people around the hall until Mic changed the projector to show us the 0 pointers.

The zero pointers thought seemed pretty strong, but there don't give any points so there's not really a point in fighting them. Better just steer clear and get as many easy targets as possible.

After telling us about them he finished the lecture and sends us away to our respective zones, while allowing those who weren't wearing suitable clothing to go and get chanced in the specified UA facilities.

------------------------

The bus on the way to the facilities was packed with aspiring hero's and the smell of nervous sweat.

Seriously don't these people know what anti-perspirant is. A spray a day keeps the smell away and all that, shit that actually a good catchphrase for a company that does stuff like that. Maybe I could sell it or something.

Breaking me out of my money making thoughts was a small girl with dark sea green hair, big eyes and a tiny nose.

"Are you nervous" she asked me.

We were holding the railing across from each other so she must've decided to make some small talk.

"No, you?" I replied.

"A little bit, I try not to let it get to me though. I'm more excited about how I have the chance to become a hero if I do well in this" She explained as her free hand began to play with her brown locks.

"I can tell your handling it better than these guys, you can literally smell the nervousness off them, this bus reeks." I said without fear or repercussion.

Nearly everyone on the bus looked at me after those words, while the girl just laughed while whatever was left of her nervousness disappeared.

When everyone got back to minding their own damn business she held her hand out towards me.

"By the way, my name's Tsuyu Asui"

Inspecting her hand for a moment, my own goes out to meet hers. As they touched it felt as if her hands latched onto mine, the grip from them was incredible.

"I'm Benimaru Shinmon"

As our hand's separate I ask her "Has your quirk got something to do with your hands? They feel abnormally grippy"

"Yea my quirks called Frog. It gives me a frogs physiology and lets me do anything a frog can"

Guess that explains why her hands were like that, I wonder how that quirk effects her strength.

"What about your eyes, have they got something to do with your quirk?" she asked looking at my red eyes, one with and a O and one with a X.

"Something like that" I replied.

My haves don't have much to do with my quirk, it's just the appearance change I got when it awakened.

Before Asui could say anything else the bus came to a halt and a mechanical voice told us to get off. It stopped right in front of our specified battle centre, so as soon as we alighted the bus we were greeted with the huge gate blocking us from the urban terrain behind it.

As the gates opened, there were nervous and confident faces mixed in the crowd while we waited for the test to begin.

Another thing I noticed was that some students had equipment tailored for their quirk. The stuff pro hero's use while doing their job. Does things like that not cost a fair bit of money? Seems like these people really want to be accepted into UA.

Can't really blame them though, UA's on a different level compared to the other hero schools in Japan, bar Shiketsu High but that's just too far away from where I live to even think about attending. I'm already taking an hours train to reach here, anymore than that's just too much.

With no warning a voice coming through a loud speaker, who I think is President Mic told us the test had started.

After a momentary lapse the group outside the gate began to rush in, ready to begin the hunt for points.
