A Student At UA

It was around 9 in the morning and Izuku had just woken up. The night before had been a calm one and so would be the one after this one and so Izuku decided to take it easy until he would learn about his results in the physical exams. 

He was anxious to say the least, given that he did not score as many points as he would have liked. He had expected more of himself though did not think for a second that saving that "baby" was a bad idea. 

Were he to become a hero, choices like these should come to him only naturally and given the amount praise the media and about every other person he knew had given he knew that he had made the right choice. 

Talking about the media, Izuku had made quite the impact according to Uwabami who, along with most if not all female and male reporters around Japan had given a positive outlook to his quirk, abilities and character. 

His abs had also made an impact, claiming first page reports on each newspaper outlet and website that provided it's viewers with the amazing thing that was imaging. 

Given that he was now the new hot topic multiple heroines had been asked about his sudden appearance in the world of heroics through interviews and fan questions. Given that most knew at least something about him none gave a negative sort of response.

Though most heroines had made sure to avoid mentioning much in the meaning of details and or personal info about Izuku as they were supposed to do. 

Though enough about what had happened until now as what was happening now is what matters the most. 


Izuku sat on the dinner table of his and Nana's home. Along with the two were Rumi and Ryuko who stood behind the young man holding each of his shoulders. It was their holds on him that kept him relaxed as he was rather anxious if not anything else.

Nemuri was also there though only sat in the chair next to him, slowly caressing his injured hand. 

With his hand still raised and in slight pain Izuku could only glance at the small holomessage that Nana held in her hand. In it was either his acceptance video or the video that would make him want to cry in bed for about two days. 

The four women had reassured him that given his performance he had certainly not failed BUT none of them cared to make it official either. Izuku at the moment held his head down with one hand ruffling his hair. 

He dared not look up until he was given a yellowish paper made of a harder and certainly a rougher kind of paper. 

"What is this?" He asked as Nana smiled as gently and lovingly as she always did. "Well it's the results of the exams that you were sure to pass" She answered making Izu chuckle in response. He had completely forgotten about the written exams!

Going through the paper as quickly as he could, he found those few words that mattered most. Muttering all his way through the paper he now spoke with his actual voice. 

"We at the UA academy are happy to inform you (Izuku Midoroyia) that you have passed the written exams with a score of 98% the highest we have seen since the founding of this academy and so congratulate you on this massive personal victory. With this stepping stone under your feet we await your eventual entry into UA and your imminent yet certain future"

 Izuku's smile shone bright inside the room as he found himself prideful and happy. Letting out a long sigh he felt the arms of the many heroines around him wrap themselves around his neck and body. 

Until now he hadn't known how much of a weight even those exams had become. He felt his shoulders loosen up a bit more as his mind could now clear most of the useless information he had learned for that exam. 

Everything felt lighter as his whole body relaxed into everyone's embrace. 

"98% is amazing Izu!" Shouted Rumi planting a quick kiss in the middle of his messy hair. The rest smiled as Nemuri felt tears come to her eyes. "I taught you so well" She said, pulling Izu's head back into her gifted chest. 

Ryuko and Nana just smiled at him lovingly knowing that it would be better to reward him later on throughout the day. 


Izu's celebrations were short lived as he saw Nana placing down the hologram on the table. He felt his heart quake and a small lump got caught on his throat. 

"Now then, shall we see how well you did?" 

Nana asked pushing the button that started the recording that she herself was a part of. 


As the minutes passed and many names but his were mentioned he felt pressure like never before. They had reached the top ten and slowly went down the numbers.

10th 

9th

8th

7th

6th

5th

And still no Izuku Midoroyia

Looking up at Nana he could only spot her unwavering smile, which she shot his way. He felt a little better from just that but still awaited the great reveal that would most hopefully come any time soon.

4th. . . 

3rd. . . 

2nd. . . 

"And lastly, a student of unprecedented heroism in his heart. A man with a mission and a quirk ready to take the world by storm With 87/100 points for his excellent performance in the field of action . . .IZUKU MIDOROIYA!" 

Izuku jumped out of his chair, completely forgetting about his injured arm as he punched the air with all his might and ferocity. "YES" He shouted in joy, laughing in pure success and happiness. And god was he happy. 

The girls didn't react, they knew what was coming and now only had to enjoy the view of a man who had achieved one of his newest yet brightest dreams. 

Slowly yet surely Izuku would calm down holding his arm in the process though not without a big smile still on his face. He now felt the lightest he had ever felt and could finally sleep at night in peace. 

God was all this taking it's toll. 

"Though i would like to add Izu" 

Stated Nana as he turned around to face her. 

"Had you not damaged yourself this much that score would have been higher but i am going to presume that you do not care like me because you are in" 

She said following it up with.

"Right?" 

Izuku simply nodded as did Nana grabbing that hologram and throwing it straight in the trash can. "I need a drink" She stated surprising no one but Izuku as the other heroines joined her in that need. 

"ehhhh?" 

Was what he could muster as he saw all of them grab a glass and pour some beverage of their liking. Turning to him Ryuko could only sigh in despair. "Do you know how heart retching it is to know that you have passed and not be able to tell for multiple reasons despite us wanting to do so cause of many other reasons?" 

He didn't answer as he himself had difficulties in finding the reasons and the meanings behind that sentence. 

Each heroine gulped down what they had poured for themselves and then set the bottles back in their places. He could only watch as they all slumped down on the couch of the living room rubbing faces and hair. 

Out of the four that sat down it was the three that would remain as Nemuri spotted the time and let out a long sigh. "I have to go to work. . . dammit" Her defeated tone making Izu chuckle at how normal and human like shew as acting. 

Standing up the heroine walked over to Izu before dropping herself into his graceful, warm and strong hands. "Goodbye Izu~" She said before placing a kiss on the young man's chin as she took him into a tight hug. 

Smiling at the gesture he kissed her back, planting the kiss on her forehead where he could easily reach. 

With her blush now in full form Nemuri smiled at the four before blowing a kiss to each and leaving for work. 

"Izu~" A very seductive voice called as he felt a pair of breasts slam themselves onto his back. Ryuko. . .  oh no.

"We want a kiss too. . .darling~" 




First Day At UA

Izuku sat in the classroom that he had been assigned to surprised and quite awake. He had taken the first row on the far right seat meaning he was right next to the door. What had surprised was that he was not the first to have entered the class. 

Rather the first person there was a. . .tall? Most probably yeah, tall girl with short dark blue hair, black glasses and shining red eyes (Like in the manga). And to those horny guys she had a moderate bust. 

Izuku happened to know who she was and if his memory did serve him right her name is Iida. 

She had a very interesting thing to say about the flier the students were given at the physical exam. . about how it did not portray something? he hadn't payed much attention to it and so now could only remember half of what was said. 

Iida had talked to him yet. She had however turned to smile at him the moment he had walked into the classroom waving her hand at him in the most robotic manner possible. 

. . .he . . .liked stoic, calm and generally people that would follow the rules. . . which is why he fell in love with Ryuko and such but. . . that's a bit too much for him. Ryuko was at least. . .and now he was judging Iida by just the cover. . .but Ryuko could be so cute and sexy as well by acting that way! 

Izuku felt his cheeks warm up as he now recalled all the great moments he had had the last few days with his draconian girlfriend. He was seeing her later today luckily and now planned on showing her once again how much he loved her just because he wanted to do so again. 

The two students would wait for a few more minutes alone until it was Iida that spoke up first. "I saw your exams live on television" She said to which he could only nod and move on. "I. . .don't know what i should ask you about it" 

He said trying to at least be honest rather than awkward or simply weird. 

"I did want to tell you that your quirk is most impressive though i cannot figure out exactly what it is, I am Iida, Iida Tenya, it is good to meet you fellow student" 

She said, standing up and bowing down in a quick and sudden motion. Izuku was surprised but also got up and bowed down in simple respect for her honesty. "I am Izuku Midoroyia, it's also good to meet you Tenya" 

Iida seemed pleased with his answer and so sat back down. As time went on more and more students would enter the class and as time went on they would form small huddles of people talking to each other. 

Izuku opted to stay out of said huddling and simply waited for the teacher to come knowing not who it would be. 


*Slam* 

The classroom door opened violently as none other that Aizawa came into the room glaring at all the students there. Her simple gaze made them all sit down without another word being spoken.

"Hello 1-A i will be your homeroom teacher for this year and every other year of your lives in this school. Now keep your mouths shut as i explain what is going to happen. Speak and you are expelled got it?" 

Her simple yet frightening words secured the silence in the room as all of the students there felt the pressure of her words. She was simply frightening to say the least. 

"Good. You might know me as Eraserhead but from now on you will know me as Aizawa-sensei and nothing else. Now, UA wants us to learn about each other for the first day but i want to test you already" 

No one dared to speak though it was clear that most were shaken up. 

"It is not a test of the brain, rather i simply want to see what you can do with your quirks and get a feel of where you are sitting" 

It was then that everyone relaxed realizing that this was not going to be as bad. 

"If you fail to meet my expectations you will be expelled" 

And there goes the pressure back to one hundred. 

Out of all the students there Izuku had certainly expected it the most. After all he knew Aizawa personally and given how she was this was most predictable. 


The whole of 1-A now found themselves outside in the schools training grounds. 

"Welcome to UA hero course test your first and most important test of this week!" 

Aizawa stated, raising her hair to look at the students with her tired eyes in full display. Some smiled and some shivered as the excitement and fear set in equally in both kinds of people. 

"Excuse me Aizawa-sensei but isn't it a bit much to do such a test right on the first day?" Spoke a pink haired girl. 

Aizawa looked away from the group before letting out a long sigh. 

"Natural disasters, big accidents, selfish villains. Calamities whose time and place cannot be predicted. Japan is full of unfairness. Heroes are the ones that reverse those situations. If you wanted to spend time with your friends after each day then UA is not the right school for you. Here, for the next three years will you tested daily and go through many hardships one after another" 

. . . . She turned around to face them.

"But you must go beyond. Plus ultra. Overcome it will all you have got" 

The students now looked on with reignited spirits smiling and preparing themselves for what was to come. Aizawa smiled, proud at herself for the speech she had just made. 

Taking a quick look at Izuku she saw him smiling all the way. He along with that Bakugo girl seemed the most confident of the group. Others were more serious in manner or standing but those two looked ready for all. 

Knowing the amount of damage he had sustained she knew that one or two of these courses would not be ideal for him but then again. . . he would find a way to turn that on it's head immediately. Maybe he knew that i would even do this in the first place. . .

Eh who cares. 


(I am not going to be mentioning any of the female characters in this just because you know them and how they look and act and all that. Instead i am just going to focus on the gender bent ones that are mostly important.)

Test 1: 50 meter dash. 

First participant was Iida with her quirk of engine along with Bakugo with her quirk of explosion. Bakugo was an average in height girl who Izuku had saved from that slime monster a few days ago. Something he just realized. She was also the person with second highest rating in the physical exams!

She looked a bit more muscular than the other girls and wore her bright yellow hair in a ponytail. Her hair was also uniquely spikey and with her beautiful red eyes staring at your soul you knew she meant trouble. 

Izuku realized that by the simple fact that she had been glaring at him for a while now. A long while now. 

Iida would score an amazing 3.04 though given that her quirk was literally engines on her legs it was only normal. She was in her element. 

Bakugo using her quirk to propel herself towards the finish line would get a time of 4.13 smiling all the way as she flew through the air. 

The following participants were Izuku himself and a short purple haired girl named Mineta. Izuku knew that her quirk had nothing to do with going fast and so was more than excited to see in what way she would use it. 

Mineta with her ball like purple hair had a very average build and was not as gifted by god in the chest department. Also, given by how he had heard her speak about heroines with two other girls he could safely guess that she was a pervert at heart. . . and a bad one at that. 

Sighing to himself Izuku got ready barely activating his quirk. 

It was just at the tip of his toes that he let OFA surge making sure that with one good dash he would finish immediately. Were he not to fuck up he would go fast where he to do otherwise he would not go fast.

"Ready"

"Set" 

"Go"

It all happened so quick that even he had missed it. In about 0.1 seconds he had raised his back just barely. In 1 second he had felt his feet raised off of the ground with his knees taking a lot of frontal force. 

"2.99 seconds" 

Had shouted the bot and Izuku looked surprised before falling from his feet. He was not in pain as he had done this before it was just that he was not expecting to go this fast. And guessing by everyone's else face they weren't either. 

Aizawa herself was surprised. . .did not show it but he was pretty fucking sure she was surprised.

"7.21 seconds" 

Shouted the bot once more as Mineta had just crossed the line. Taking a breather Izuku got up from his ass and dusted himself off getting ready for the next test.

Test 2: Grip Strength. 

Izuku grabbed one of the machines in his hand. He had used these before and would average around 81kg of grip strength without his quirk. Looking up he was surprised yet pleased to find that Mezo had a grip strength of 513 kg. 

Something which Mineta was especially surprised to know. Mezo was a tall girl with white hair and a gifted bust. She had multiple hands around her and guessing by such a score she was also really strong. 

Smiling to himself he applied one for all to all the muscle groups that would be needed for this test. He did his left hand as he wanted to keep the right one intact, just in case. Slowly upping the power he felt himself get stronger. 

With sparks flying around his arm most students turned to face him. Taking a deep breath he closed his fist as hard as he could hitting an instant amount of 321 kilos. But it seemed he had stopped half way. 

From then on his fist would close all the more slowly as he made sure not to hurt himself. 

400 kg

500 kg

600 kg

700 kg

710 kg

720 kg

725 kg

729 kg was his final score at which he let go letting out a labored grunt at that. Looking at his hand he found small bruises dotted around but felt them not and so decided that he had gone without serious injury. That was true. 

Test 3 Long Jump

Izuku Jumped over the sand pit. 


Test 4 Side Steps. 

Barely enhanced his feet though managed to do about 1000 in the span of a minute. 


Final Test. Long Throw.

His turn came just after Uraraka's who just thrown a ball so high that even Aizawa's phone had calculated infinity in distance. He was NOT trying to top that shit. Nah no way. His quirk had nothing to do with that!

Instead he decided that he would go for something more moderate and so got ready to throw away. Just before he did so though he noticed one small thing. His shadow quirk while not in use was still very much active. 

And so by it being active he could sense that someone was hiding behind a wall nearby. That someone also just happened to have a figure that he had ingrained into his mind and had touched himself multiple times. 

It was then that he decided with a smile on his face not to go for something moderate. 

And so charging up OFA he got ready to through this ball as far as physically possible. Starting the motion he got ready and . . . 

he stopped. 

"Aizawa-sensei?" He asked, turning around and seeing what he was already expecting to see. She had used her quirk to cancel his own glaring at the young man as she did so. 

"I am sorry Midoroyia but i can't have you breaking your arm on me again. Either you find a solution around it or you are expelled" She said in a stoic yet wrathful voice. From just her eyes he knew she was telling the truth. 

It didn't change much though. 

The amount of force he was planning on using would cause him very little damage. 

"Yes Aizawa-sensei" 

He simply said channeling OFA to just one finger, his pointer. With four percent he would at most get a bruise which was acceptable at worst. Getting ready once more Izuku used OFA to launch the ball as far as he could loosing it as the sun blinded his eyes. 

Aizawa huffed at her phone seemingly pleased with the result. 2.420 meters. Nice.
