Test

  Izuku stared up at UA's gates in awe. Danger Sense warned him to step to the left, dodging Bakugo's shoulder check.

  "Tch, fucking Deku." He said, storming off.

  "He was rude." A girl said.

  Izuku turned, coming face to face with a pretty brunette with rosy cheeks.

  "H-hi.." Izuku said.

  The girl smiled.

  "Hello! Being here is so cool isn't it? I can't wait for the exam! Anyway, don't want to be late, see you inside!"

  The girl walked away.

  Izuku could hear the Fifth's laughing from here.

 

  Izuku entered the auditorium, taking his seat next to the Pomeranian.

  He was just in time to see Present Mic walk onstage below.

  "Welcome to UA's heroics practical exam! Can I get a YEEAHH??"

  Izuku grinned, sitting up a little straighter.

  *Oh, what the hell.*

  "YEAH!" He yelled.

  Everyone else remained silent.

  Present Mic shot some finger guns at Izuku, a huge grin on his face.

  "That's what I like to hear!! Now, onto the explanation! You will all be split up into groups, and dumped into a city constructed for the exam! You must defeat robots to earn points to pass! There are one pointers, two pointers and three pointers! Earn as many points as you can in ten minutes to-!"

  "Excuse me, I have a question!"
 
  Present Mic took the rude interruption in stride, pointing up at the boy.

  "You're on air examinee 7771!"

  "You have said there are three kinds of robot in the exam, whilst there are clearly four on the sheet provided and the screen behind you! If this is an error then UA should be ashamed!"

  Present Mic's smile was a little strained, but he hid his irritation well.

  "Thank you listener, but there's nothing to worry about! That robot is different, it's not worth any points! Destroying it gives no villain points whatsoever! It's more of an obstacle for you kids to avoid! It's not that it can't be beaten, it's just not worth the trouble!"

  The pompous kid sat back down after apologising, and Present Mic finished the explanation with the school motto.

  "So do your best out there everyone! Go beyond.." Present Mic's expression almost became.. feral. "Plus Ultra!"

  Izuku thought about the explanation on the bus ride over.

  The zero pointer had to have some kind of secret. It didn't give any villain points. Villain points..?

  Izuku smiled.

There was a secret scoring system. And what else did heroes do? Save people. Saving points? Helping points? Whatever they were called, that's what the zero pointer was for. If you took it down, and 'saved' the people in its path, you would be given Helping points. Interesting. Did that apply to any situation? Could you earn points by 'saving' examinees from one pointers? Rubble? Doing first aid?

  Izuku frowned. The zero pointer had to be significantly tougher than the other robots then. More weapons? Tougher armour?

  Izuku sighed, going through a list of his quirks, and how he could use them in this situation.

  One for All. (Pass on and energy accumulation) super strength. Super speed. Self explanatory.

  Float. Reconnaissance. Mobility.

  Blackwhip. Reconnaissance. Restraints. Mobility.

  Danger Sense. Self explanatory.

  Wall Step. Climbing buildings. Mobility.

  Smokescreen and Pore weren't all that useful in combat against robots. Smokescreen was useful against human opponents, but robot's sensors wouldn't be impaired much. Pore kept his skin fresh and clean, so it was obviously not a combat oriented quirk.

  The bus slowed to a stop and Izuku followed the rest of the teenagers outside, waiting beside a massive pair of doors.

  Izuku called on his quirks, keeping them shimmering just beneath the surface.

  "START!!" Present Mic screamed.

  Izuku kicked off the ground and flew through the still opening doors at high speed. He launched Blackwhip forwards and grabbed a robot, swinging it around and using the one pointer as a club to beat a group of two pointers.

  Izuku had changed his quirk registry to energy manipulation ten months ago. He included a few misleading titbits in its description, like he's been accumulating energy unknowingly since he was four, and activated it in his sleep by mistake, floating in the air.

  Izuku, over the course of a few months, had slowly updated the registry to make it seem like he 'discovered' new ways to use his energy.

  Izuku had Float, Blackwhip, Danger Sense, Smokescreen and Wall step added to the registry alongside the superspeed.

  He was perfectly hidden from both the heroes and Villains searching for him. Everyone was so focused on the super strength they didn't realize it could be hidden as super speed.

  Quite a few people with strength enhancers had come forward saying 'I am the successor to All Might'. But they were of course found to be bogus.

 
  Izuku smashed his twentieth three pointer, cleaving his foot through its throat, taking the head off completely.

  "118 points... Most of the basic robots have already been taken down, and I don't know how many 'helping points' I've earned. That just leaves the zero pointer.." Izuku muttered under his breath.

  Danger Sense spiked through his mind. It was the biggest threat Izuku had felt so far with the quirk, but the feeling still wasn't as strong as the Fourth said it would get when facing villains.

  "Okay, there is danger, but it's not all that severe." He mumbled, sprinting towards the source of the screaming two streets away.

  Izuku skidded to a stop and stared up at the zero pointer.

  " 'its more of an obstacle you should try to avoid'. Cheers Present Mic, I'll totally avoid that freaking thing. AVOID IT WHERE EXACTLY?" Izuku asked nobody in particular.

  Danger Sense spiked, making Izuku look around. He spotted the brunette from earlier trapped under a pile of rubble. Danger Sense could tell him if someone else was in danger? That was pretty useful.

  Izuku flew to the girl, snaking Blackwhip under the rubble and picking it up all at once.

  "Are you hurt?" He asked.

  The girl shook her head, standing up on unsteady legs.

  Izuku smiled, chucking the concrete at the robot.

  "Get going then. I'll hold this guy off. Try and help anyone else that's stuck too."

  Izuku pushed off and flew upwards, towards the zero pointer's head.

 
  The UA faculty were watching the screens in interest.

  "Nezu, what's the kid's quirk registered as?" A scruffy hobo man asked.

  A bipedal animal in a suit looked down at his tablet.

  "He was quirkless until ten months ago, when he updated his registry to 'energy manipulation'. He updated it three more times at irregular intervals to add new aspects he'd discovered. He has super speed and super strength, he can fly, create those dark tendrils, sense danger and walk on walls."

  Most of the heroes present sighed in disappointment.

  "So it's not him?" The same man asked.

  Nezu shook his head.

  "It's not impossible, however it is most likely just an energy manipulation quirk. The reason it was only discovered ten months ago checks out alongside other late bloomers and undiscovered accumulation type quirks. It is unlikely the boy possesses One for All. Keep an eye on him though, just in case."

  Izuku blew the head off of the zero pointer with ease.

  "He is most definitely in your class Aizawa."
