❀

A week had passed since the exam and Naomi was currently laying down on her back, a book in her hands as she read through each page slowly, while Hannah was typing away to her boyfriend; hopefully soon to be ex, Naomi absolutely hated the guy; as she was sitting on the ground, her back against the bed.

It was quite a good book she had to admit, something about a girl being a daughter of some dragon court and the enemy strikes on the day before her wedding.

She was curious about how she did in the exam, but until she got her results she'd never know and so, she decided to read a good book to pass the time.

She had absolutely no idea how she did on anything in the exam, for all she knows she could've completely failed the written exam.

Her mother tried to let her know that it should arrive any day now, but she was too immersed into the story to hear her, before she looked at Hannah who was furiously typing away on her phone and a small chuckle left her lips as she placed down two plates of food on her desk, before leaving the room as she closed the door behind her.

Seeing the food, Hannah got up and began to scarf it down as she sat back in her spot, reading her text messages with a frown on her face as she chewed the delicious chicken.

Hours had gone by; it was really only thirty minutes but I guess you lose track of time when reading, before her bedroom door slammed open and the raven haired jumped with a screech leaving her, her book flying out of her hands.

The book hit Hannah in the head and her phone went flying out of her hands as she reached up to rub the red spot, a wince on her face as her food fell off her lap.

The book just had to have a hard cover, didn't it.

'Ow! Shit, son of a bi- MY FOOD! How dare you!?'

Watching as it landed on the ground, the pages closing, a sad look formed on Naomi's face and comedic tears fell down her face as she realized that she had lost the page she was on and would have to go through the whole book to find it again.

A cry of sadness left Hannah's lips as she picked up the food from the floor and turned to glare at the book beside her, a dark aura forming around her body.

Thankfully Naomi's mom always made a ton of extra food since she was always over; hell she practically lived the there, and would let her have as much as she wanted but that wasn't the point.

Her delicious food was now on the floor and her heart was broken.

'It's here! Your test results are here!'

'That pain was worth it!'

Scrambling up from her spot on the floor, Hannah grabbed the envelope and rushed forward, jumping onto the bed, shoving it into the girl's hands.

Opening the envelope, they all watched as a disk fell onto the bed and hums left their lips, before a shriek left Hannah as a projection of All Might appeared, loudly announcing his presence.

'Hello, young Naomi!'

The loud voice caused her body to shake as her ears almost bursted and she shook her head, looking at the projection.

The Number One Hero was in a yellow suit with a white undershirt and a dark blue tie.

Seeing the man caused Hannah's eyes to roll back and she fell backwards, hitting the ground harshly as her face burned red.

It was quite easy to tell she had a schoolgirl crush on the man.

'I apologize that I couldn't contact you with this projection for your results, I had quite a bit of paperwork to get done and it had pushed back some of the results. You passed the written exam and got a very interesting result of 32 points, but there is another reason you had passed besides that. Without even thinking you rushed forward to help another applicant, Miss Ochaco, from getting hurt and put yourself in harms way to save her. Your kindness that causes you put yourself in harms way to help others is exactly what makes a great hero! Of course, we don't only give points for the written exam and practice exam, we also have rescue points'

Humming slightly, Naomi furrowed her eyebrows and glanced towards her mother and Hannah, who were both watching intensely, holding their breath as they waited to hear the results.

'You got 56 rescue points!'

Feeling as if her heart was about to explode, Naomi watched the video with wide eyes and shaky breathing, her hands becoming clammy.

She passed.

Tears began to fill eyes of pale pink and her body began to shake as she watched All Might reach out his hand, smiling brightly.

'Welcome, young Naomi. To your hero academia!'

A scream of excitement and happiness left Hannah and her mother's lips and the blonde jumped towards Naomi, tackling her to the ground as tears left the ravenette's eyes, small sobs leaving her.

'You did it! Oh my god!'

She did it.

She really made it.

❀

To say being confident walking into the school was exactly what Naomi did, was a lie.

Her whole body was tense with anxiety and she looked around at all of the students in her class; class 1A.

They were all unique in their own ways with their different quirks.

The one that caught her eye the most though was a boy with spiky red hair and sharp teeth that glistened in the light whenever he smiled, his eyes radiating with light.

His hair kind of looked like the blonde boy who always looked like he was prepared to fight with anyone.

Although he was currently being lectured by the boy with glasses; she remembered him from the entrance exam when he was scolding Izuku.

He looked like the kind of person to yell at someone for being late by one minute.

'Don't put your feet on the desk!'

Huffing slightly, Naomi's attention was drawn to the door as it opened and seeing the green-haired boy standing there caused her to blink slowly.

She was literally just thinking about when he was getting scolded by the boy with glasses and he suddenly appears at the door.

What a coincidence.

'I attended Somei Private Academy. My name is Tenya Iida'

'Somei? So you're a damn elite, huh? Looks like I'll have fun crushing you'

Rolling her eyes, Naomi looked away from the two and looked towards Izuku, watching as he looked towards her causing her to smile, lifting up her hand as she waved slightly.

Watching as his face reddened, the girl tilted her head in confusion and watched as he slowly raised his hand, his body shaking as he tried to wave back.

'You're..'

The whole class turned in Izuku's direction and he tore his eyes away from Naomi, looking at the whole class with wide eyes; everyone was staring at him.

'Good morning!',Tenya announced and strode towards the green haired boy,'I am from Somei Private Academy. My name is—'

'I heard!'

Hearing this, Tenya stopped in place and blinked slowly, a shocked look on his face as he looked at the boy's nervous smile.

'I'm Midoriya. Nice to meet you, Iida'

'Midoriya, you realized there was something more to that practical exam, didn't you?'

Looking at him with a shocked looked, the green-haired boy's eyes widened slightly and a small hum left his lips.

Closing his eyes in frustration, Iida sighed slightly and slowly shook his head, lightly pushing his glasses up.

'I had no idea. I misjudged you. I hate to admit it, but you are better than me'

'Sorry. I actually didn't realize anything'

A small drop of sweat fell down the side of his head and Midoriya blinked slowly, staring at the boy in front of him with a confused look on his face.

At the time, he hadn't even thought of the test and only thought of helping Naomi and that girl get out of harms away.

He only thought about protecting them.

'Oh, that curly hair! You're the plain-looking one!'

A small snort-like laugh left Naomi and she reached up her hands, covering her face as her shoulders began to shake from her quiet laughs.

'Go somewhere else if you want to play at being friends'

Confused by the sudden voice; which sounded strangely very close to the ground, Naomi got out of her seat and slowly looked out the door, looking at the ground.

A small shriek left her as she jumped back in shock and stared with wide eyes at the man on the ground; he was currently wrapped up in a dark yellow sleeping bag with his black hair and his head just barely poking out.

'This is the hero course',He said and unzipped the sleeping bag to lift a pouch of juice to his mouth, before standing up, unzipping the bag all of the way,'Okay, it took eight seconds before you were quiet. Time is limited. You kids are not rational enough'

The closer she look at the man, the more she took in her teachers features. He was quite tall and had pale skin with shoulder-length midnight black hair that partially hangs in front of his face, a small stubble of a half shaven beard along with a mustache and his black eyes were half opened, the veins in his eyes showing just how tired he was.

'I'm your homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa. Nice to meet you'

Pulling a uniform from his sleeping bag, Aizawa looked at the students and watched as they went silent, all of them staring at him with blank looks.

'It's kind of sudden, but put this on and go out onto the field'

Staring at the uniform in his hand, Naomi tilted her head to the side and narrowed her eyes.

What would they be doing?

❀

'A quirk assessment test?!'

Looking down at her hand with a frown, Naomi stared at her sharp nails and clenched her hand into a fist softly, making sure her nails didn't pierce the skin.

A quirk assessment test.

So he wanted to see what everyone's quirks were and how well they could use them.

'What about the entrance ceremony?',Ochaco asked,'The orientation?'

'If you're going to become a hero, you don't have time for such leisurely events. U.A.'s selling point is how unrestricted it's school traditions are. That's also how the teachers run their classes. You kids have been doing these since junior high, too, right?'

Holding up his phone, Aizawa stared at the teens and looked over each of them.

'Physical fitness tests where you weren't allowed to use your Quirks. The country still uses averages taken from results from students not using their Quirks. It's not rational. Well, the Ministry of Education is procrastinating. Bakugo, you finished at the top of the practical exam, right?'

Turning to look at the blonde haired teen, Naomi wasn't that surprised he had finished at the top and watched as he looked towards the teacher.

'In junior high, what was your best result for the softball throw?'

'67 meters'

'Then, try doing it with your Quirk'

Standing in the circle of a track; which was probably used for pitching in baseball, Bakugo threw up the ball and caught it, watching Aizawa with a bored look on his face.

'You can do whatever you want as long as you stay in the circle. Hurry up. Give it all you've got'

Stretching slightly, Bakugo had a bored look on his face and turned around, stretching out once more before getting ready to throw the ball.

Reeling his arm back, the blonde threw the baseball with an explosion behind it and the ball went soaring through the air, a ring of fire surrounding it.

'Die!'

Blinking at his words, Naomi looked towards him with wide eyes and glance towards where the ball had landed.

He was going to be the cause of a lot of headaches.

'That is the most rational way to form the foundation of a hero',Aizawa said.

Seeing how far Bakugo had thrown it caused the class to erupt into a bunch of chatter about how fun this was going to be and Naomi hummed slightly.

705.2

Since they could use quirks, then she wouldn't have to hold back much with her strength.

This was going to be interesting.

' "It looks fun", huh?'. You have three years to become a hero. Will you have an attitude like that the whole time? Alright, whoever comes in last place in all eight tests will be judged to have no potential and will be punished with expulsion'

Eyes widening, Uraraka and Naomi looked towards one another with panicked looks on their faces.

Surely he couldn't do that right?

Looking off to the side, a small shiver of fear ran throughout her body and she began to think about it.

If she used just enough strength from her quirk then she'll be fine.

Yeah that's all she had to do, everything would be fine.

But out of all the students, she noticed that Midoriya looked the most intimidated. From what she'd seen him do with his quirk though, she was sure that he'd be just fine; she believed in him.

'We're free to do what we want about the circumstances of our students. Welcome to U.A.'s hero course!'

Gulping slightly, Naomi looked down at her hand and held it up, thinking back to the multiple times she had used her quirk.

Even though she's had this quirk for a long time, she still wasn't able to completely control it and that's what scared her.

'Last place will be expelled? But it's the first day of school! No, even if it wasn't the first day of school, this is totally unfair!'

'Natural disasters, big accidents, and selfish villains. Calamities whose time or place can't be predicted. Japan is covered with unfairness. Heroes are the ones who reverse those situations', Aizawa explained,'If you want to go talk with your friends at Mickey D's after school, too bad. For the next three years, U.A. will do all it can to give you one hardship after another. Go beyond, Plus Ultra'

The world was a very unfair place filled with disaster and chaos, the man wasn't wrong, but that's why heroes existed.

To try and fix the balance of things as they got worse.

However they could only do so much.

'Overcome it with everything you've got. Alright, demonstrations over, the real thing starts now'

❀

The first test was a fifty meter dash.

It wasn't like Naomi was out of shape, it was quite the opposite, she was very good with stamina and speed but at the moment, the thought of running made her want to fall to the ground and cry.

But what was the worst thing of all was when she saw that she was up against Bakugo Katsuki and it just made her want to sob loudly.

It wasn't that she hated the guy or anything, his pride just made him a very aggressive competitor.

She wished that she was against the boy with red, spiky hair since he seemed like a sweet guy and wouldn't try to blow her up if she won.

Bending down slightly, Naomi got into a running position with her feet up against the starting block sprinter and her eyes narrowed as Katsuki angrily huffed beside her; as if he was agitated for being up against her.

His attitude caused an irk mark to form on Naomi's forehead as she huffed, steam comedically blowing from her nose as she tensed up; waiting for the word to go.

'On your mark, get set...'

Leaning down a bit more, the girl's muscles tensed and the veins in her body popped out as she slightly strengthened the muscles in her legs.

The sound of the gun firing caused the girl to push forward, releasing that strength as she ran as quickly as she could with Bakugo right behind her with an angry look on his face.

Small explosions were set off from the palm of his hands and he pushes ahead of the girl slightly, crossing the line.

Beep.

'4.13 seconds'

Another beep sounded.

'4.14 seconds'

Seeing that she had finished a second behind the egotistical boy, Naomi huffed and rolled her eyes as he boasted about how much cooler he was than her.

Turning around, she walked away from the blonde and heard as he yelled out in irritation, watching as she walked away.

She knew that she was going to happen, hence why she was upset at the beginning for having to go against the explosion boy.

❀

Once it was time for the fifth test, Naomi was already beginning to feel quite tired and swayed slightly, her head bobbing slightly as she tried to stay awake.

Using so much strength and speed from her quirk for these exams were really starting to drain her energy, her eyelids drooping slightly.

'Are you alright, Naomi?'

Turning towards the sweet voice, Naomi turned towards the sound and seeing Ochaco looking at her with a worried look, the girl smiled softly as a small hum left her.

Seeing the dark circles that were beginning to appear underneath the slightly taller girls eyes, Ochaco frowned in concern and stared at her, watching the way her body swayed slightly from the fatigue.

Even though the girl was trying to reassure her that she was okay, she let the raventte lean against her, Naomi's head resting against her own as her eyelids drooped.

It was the girl's turn now and Uraraka glanced towards her in concern as she slowly walked forward, catching the ball as Aizawa threw it towards her.

Clenching her hand around the ball, Naomi breathed in slightly and the veins in her body popped out as the pupils in her eyes narrowed into cat-like slits as she drew her arm back.

Throwing the ball forward with as much strength as she could, a small burst of wind blew everyone's hair back and the classes eyes widened, watching the softball disappear into the clouds.

After a few seconds had passed, a small drop of sweat fell down Naomi's face as realized that she had overdone it with her strength and eventually, the ball started to come back down, landing somewhere in the field.

Holding up the reader, everyone's eyes widened at the score and even though it couldn't beat infinity, it was still impressive.

943 meters.

Face brightening at her score, Naomi slightly jumped in place in excitement before she ran over to Ochaco, who gave her a high five and the ravenette hummed as she smiled up at the slightly taller girl.

'That was amazing, Naomi!'

Beaming up at her, the raventte nodded her thanks and the two looked back towards Aizawa as he called the next student.

Midoriya.

Seeing that he was staring at the ball, Naomi frowned and tilted her head, furrowing her eyebrows.

Was he alright?

'It doesn't look good for Midoriya if he continues like this'

'Huh? Of course not, he's a quirkless small fry, you know?'

Furrowing her eyebrows, Naomi turned towards Bakugo and hummed out in disagreement, causing the blonde to turn to look down at her with an irritated look on his face.

That couldn't be true, she'd seen him use a quirk.

Maybe he was a late bloomer.

Noticing that she was trying to find a way to say something, Ochaco looked at the raven haired girl in worry and gently tapped on her shoulder.

As Naomi looked up at her, the brunette's heart clenched at the look of sadness in her eyes and she quickly took her hands in her own, causing Naomi's eyes to widen as a blush formed on her face.

'I know how to help you speak to people without having to use words or writing them down!'

Eyes brightening, hums of excitement left Naomi's lips and she looks at the girl expectingly, watching as a small drop of sweat fell down the side of Ochaco's head.

'Well, it's called ASL, or sign language. People who have hearing complications or can't speak use it all of the time, we can learn it together and teach our classmates so they can understand you when you use it so that you don't have to write stuff down all of the time'

"Mm! Mmhm mmmm hmm hmm!"

Brightening with glee at her words, Naomi nodded quickly and giggled as she bounced in place, watching as Ochaco let out a soft laugh, having absolutely no idea what the ravenette tried to say, but that was okay, as long as she was excited and happy to try it.

Turning their heads back just in time, the two watched as he reeled his arm back and threw the ball, a burst of wind going through the area causing the ravenette's eyes to widen, a small sparkle in them.

705.3 meters.

'Mr. Aizawa'

Watching as the black haired man looked up towards Midoriya, the ravenette watched as he lifted up his hand and clenched it into a fist, his pointer finger turning purple from having broken it.

'I can still move!'

Perking up, Naomi clapped her hands for the boy and watched as he glanced towards her, his cheeks turning red as she beamed towards him.

But one person wasn't very happy with what had happened.

'Hey! Tell me what's going on, Deku, you bastard!'

With an angry look on his face, Bakugo lunged towards the boy and small sparks of an explosion sparked in his palms, causing Izuku to jump back, yelling in fear.

A cloth wrapped around Bakugo and he came to a stop, rage on his face as he struggled.

'What the—? These cloths are hard!'

'They're weapons for capture made of carbon fiber woven together with metal wire made of a special alloy. Jeez.. don't keep making me use my quirk over and over'

A small drop of sweat fell down Naomi's forehead and she leaned back, an intimidated look on her face as Aizawa's eyes glowed red.

'I have dry eye'

Thinking that her teachers quirk was amazing, Naomi's eyes glistened and her chest sparked with jealousy.

Why couldn't her quirk be as cool as that.

'We're wasting time. Whoever's next, get ready'

Walking around Bakugo with a scared look on his face, Midoriya rushed back towards everyone and settled in next to Uraraka and Naomi.

Feeling a gently tug on his sleeve, a small hum left Midoriya's lips and he looked down, his face reddening at the sparkles in Naomi's eyes as she looked up at him, a breath of awe leaving her.

His entire face went red and he covered himself with his arms, an embarrassed look on his face as Naomi copied his previous actions as she hummed out her words that she wanted to say, her eyes glistening with an impressed look.

Glancing towards the two, a small giggle left Uraraka's lips and she covered her mouth with one of her hands, watching the scene.

But as Naomi suddenly grabbed his hand and looked at his broken fingers with wide eyes, Izuku froze as his brain malfunctioned and his whole face went red, not being able to hear the way the girl let out worried noises through the muzzle on her face.

'Are your fingers okay!?',Uraraka yelled, noticing the way Naomi held his injured hand and leaned closer, sweating with worry.

Not being able to handle two girls worrying over him, Izuku could almost feel the steam radiating off of his body as the blush on his face darkened.
