Chapter VI
Hasumi and the rest of 1-A stood in the training field, each in their training uniform. A sense of paranoia washed over Hasumi as he looked around, his gaze going to Okumara and Yahiro and Akisada. Okumara's serious gaze didn't bring him much comfort. However, the twins seemed to be happy and excited which calmed Hasumi down a little bit.
"Alright, in my hand is a ball. However, this ball can measure how far you throw it. So, who's going first?" Bakugou asks, throwing the ball up in his hands.
Silence.
Everyone was nervous. Most of them could use their quirk and get the ball farther than if they just threw it. However, everyone was hesitant to show off what they could do since they didn't want to seem like a show off. He was hesitant, but after a moment or two, Hasumi raised his hand.
"I-I'll go first!" Hasumi offered, tensing up once all eyes were on him again.
"Alright, show us what you can do," Bakugou instructs, handing the ball to Hasumi when the green haired boy finally stepped forward past everyone.
Hasumi nodded and looked at the moment. In general, Hasumi could throw pretty far. But if he wanted to make sure he actually ranked high enough to stay, he'd have to have more of a strategy than just to throw it. Then, an idea came. It was something Izuku had told him he did when he did this during his first day at UA.
This had to work. So, taking a deep breath, Hasumi threw the ball. However, last minute, he put a thin layer of ice on two sides of the ball to add more momentum to it so that it went farther. A small hum left Bakugou before he showed the distance in meters.
127.
A soft sigh of relief left Hasumi as he went back to the group, Okumara being the first to speak with Hasumi.
"That was quite impressive, I must admit. How did you come up with such a clever idea?" The blue haired male asks, pushing up his glasses a little bit.
"Ah, well, i-it wasn't my original idea! My papa d-did something similar when he d-did this for his first day coming to UA!" Hasumi explains, earning a small hum from Okumara.
"I see. So you took prior knowledge and adapted it to fit your quirk. That's very clever," Okumara says, nodding a bit as if to confirm his own words before both males turned at the sound of sudden commotion.
Ugumori stood, looking confident in himself as ever swarmed around the score he got for the ball throw. He got...
"Infinite!?" The entire class exclaimed in unison.
"Yup! Got my mom's quirk: Zero Gravity!" Ugumori exclaims with a bright smile.
Hasumi felt hope for him drop. He definitely ranked lower now. But that was also amazing on Ugumori's end. Honestly, Hasumi would have done the same thing if that was his quirk. It was a smart idea. This kept on for a while until it moved on. The other training activities were a race, which Okumara won within 0.5 seconds. His quirk, Rocket, acted much like Iida's quirk, however, his engines pointed down and they activated when he touched his finger pads together.
Lastly, was a high jump. Hasumi definitely scored low. He shot ice from the palm of his hand as a boost, but he couldn't get far. Using the tape that came from the palm of his hand, Yahiro had scored the highest in that. But now, the scores were up. Hasumi gasped when he saw he was in the top 10. He wasn't going home! Though, he noticed Konishi frown, anger evident in the girl's expression. When the green haired boy looked, he saw she was the last person.
Konishi's quirk wasn't flashy or even really noticeable. Her quirk allowed her to copy the voice of anyone she heard. During the race, she used it to her advantage to make the other person start early then get scolded by Bakugou but that was it. Feeling bad for her, Hasumi went over to the female and gave her shoulder a pat, causing the female to quickly look at Hasumi.
"H-Hey, I know that the scores say different, but, I-I thought you did good out there!" Hasumi says with a soft smile.
"Thanks. But, guess I'm going home," Konishi says with a soft sigh, moving some of her black hair out of her face before perking up when Bakugou spoke.
"Alright, get back to class. No one is going home," Bakugou stated casually.
"HUH!?"
