My Hero Academia: Blood and Fire

Eventually the day of the entrance exam was upon the siblings, where Celestia and Selene found that Izuku, true to form, was nowhere to be seen and were heading out around six in the morning to track him down, even though there was only one place he would be, the junky beach.

"I can't believe that man, making Izuku stay out all night like this." Selene remarked, as this was a big day, the exam could only be taken once a year and if their brother missed it he'd be forced to wait another year before taking it, though she had a suspicion that this was All Might's plan to shape Izuku into the perfect vessel for One For All, "He's not going to have any energy for the exam if he's been training all night."

"Though knowing our brother, he'll likely be full of energy once he remembers what day it is." Celestia stated, though while she agreed with Selene, the old man had been running him into the ground like he was a beast of burden, she also knew their brother would be far too excited for today, especially with what it meant for him.

Selene said nothing to that as they reached the edge of the beach, allowing them to see out into the area that their brother had been used to clean, and sure enough most of the trash was gone now, save for a pile that was ready to be loaded onto the truck, a pile Izuku was standing near. She found that All Might, in his weakened form, was standing there and was in the middle of talking to their brother, who was missing his shirt, showing off his new muscles he had gained thanks to his work over the last ten months, even if it wasn't as impressive as the muscles that some other people had. Still, she had to admit that her brother's work had been successful, he was definitely stronger than before he had been when he started training under All Might, though it remained to be see if this changed anything for him. Based on what she was seeing it sure looked like the Number One had already passed on One For All, how she had no idea since they had missed that fact, that was if she had been right about that being the figure's reason for all of this, but she decided not to worry about it.

Of course when the sisters approached the pair it was clear that Toshinori was done with whatever it was that he had to say to Izuku, where their exhausted brother walked over to them as he grabbed his discarded shirt and his backpack, which had his water bottle and other items that he started using to give himself his energy back.

"I'm sure you two know what day it is, right?" Selene asked, because she assumed that Izuku was the one that really knew what today was and how important it actually was to all three of them, since it didn't matter to All Might, and she wanted to make sure of that before they got going.

"February 26th, the day of UA's entry exam... I need to go home, take a shower, and then we need to head out." Izuku said, as the reality of the situation was dawning on him as he bowed his head towards his mentor, while doing what he could to move back towards their home.

Celestia sighed as she spread her wings and took to the air, grabbing onto her brother as she hauled him back home, while at the same time Selene ran down the streets on all fours, neither of them caring about the license rule for Quirks, and it didn't take them long to get back home. With that in mind the sisters made sure Izuku took a quick shower and had a quick meal, even though their mother worried over him while he was eating his food, leaving the sisters to make sure his pack was ready as well, since there wasn't a whole lot of time before the exam started. Once he was ready to go, and had some time to calm his nerves, the sisters grabbed their own packs and walked outside with him, heading down to the subway since they were going to head to UA like normal people. It gave them time to rest and relax, especially Izuku since he needed to recover from his training, even though they also knew that Katsuki was on a car that was ahead of him, meaning he'd likely annoy one or more of them when they reached their destination.

Eventually the trio approached the H shaped building that was UA, where there was a single open gate with a sign outside it, welcoming applicants to the exams, and sure enough Katsuki walked by with a 'Fuck off, Deku', which was normal for him so the sisters weren't worried about it at all.

"Quite the turn out." Selene commented, as there were plenty of people, a sea of potential Quirks, standing outside the main building as they waited to be admitted inside, and she suspected that their father's spy was somewhere in the crowd, simply watching Izuku like they had been told to do.

"Not surprising, considering how popular the hero job is." Celestia said, where she had to wonder how many of the people here were interested in the fame and money, instead of actually putting their lives on the line like a true hero, but decided that it was better to focus on whatever their exam might be.

As they glanced back at Izuku, however, they found that he had nearly tripped on his own feet and a girl with auburn hair had stopped him from hitting the ground, with what Selene found to be a gravity based Quirk, something she wanted to see in action, and the girl said something about it being bad luck to hit the ground. Izuku, shocked by the fact that someone was willing to talk to him, blushed for a moment as he joined his sisters, which was around the time that they found that the rest of the potential students were heading into the main building at last. They followed them inside and found that everyone was sitting down in the various seats, where Celestia and Selene sat down in two of the seats as Izuku sat next to them, and in addition to that Katsuki sat next to Izuku so he could tell him to 'shut up' while they listened to the heroes that would no doubt be administering the exam. The one who eventually came to the stage was the hero known as 'Present Mic', who was an eccentric hero who doubled as a radio host, Izuku even listened to him in the mornings, and the device around his neck was supposed to help him control his Quirk.

Neither of the sisters were surprised by the fact that everyone was excited by Present Mic's arrival, he was the one that was a commentator for the various events that were funded by the school, like the Sports Festival for example, and the moment he raised his hand everyone quieted down immediately.

"Welcome, one and all, to my live show! Everybody say 'heeeey'!" Present Mic said, his voice reaching everyone, which was the combination of his Quirk and the equipment he wore to fully control it, while at the same time he turned his head so he could listen to everyone cheer for a few seconds, before he smiled as he turned to face them once more, "I've got shivers running down my spine as well, examinees, so without further ado let me give you the low-down on how this will go down!"

Present Mic explained that there were seven exam areas, labeled A through G, and each of them had been given a number that happened to have which of the 'battlefields' they were going to be sent to for the physical part of the exam, and by an odd twist of fate all three siblings were in the same area. The sisters and Katsuki correctly guessed that it had been made this way to prevent classmates and friends from helping each other, but apparently failed to take into account siblings taking the exam at the same time, as if Celestia, Selene, and Izuku were the first group of siblings to take the exam at the exact same time. Present Mic then explained that there would be 'villains' sprinkled around the battlefields, likely robots since that was the most likely thing, and that some were worth one point, others two, and some three, meaning their goal was to track down, take them out, and collect a high score. Since they were training to be heroes this meant they could use their Quirks to do battle, and he made sure they knew that attacking the other examinees was against the rules, no doubt grounds for immediate disqualification if it were to happen.

While the lecture went on there was someone who spoke up and asked a question, about the fourth type of 'villain' that was part of this, as there was another one listed on the paper that everyone had been given, and he even singled out Izuku for being excited about the big day, but backed down when the sisters glared at him.

Present Mic, clearly a little annoyed by the interruption, still thanked the rather well dressed boy for pointing that out to him, even though he had been getting to mentioning the fourth type, which were the 'arena traps', worth zero points, which he likened to the Thwomp enemies from the old Super Mario Bros games. Basically they were gimmick enemies that were best avoided so everyone could focus on displaying their powers and abilities, and a few of the examinees mentioned how similar this was to a video game, with all of the points and things they had to think about. Following that Present Mic left them with a presentation so they could go over the precepts of the school, which was just the concepts everyone knew about since the school went above and beyond in ensuring that everyone knew they were raising heroes here. None of them were surprised when he told them that they would be moving onto the main event and followed it up with a 'Plus Ultra', a phrase that meant to go 'further beyond', but he did wish them well in their suffering to come.

Once that was done everyone was allowed to change into their exercise attire, some of them even coming with equipment that would help them control their Quirks, like the fancy boy who had a belt that looked like it was weaponized in some odd manner, while Izuku had a light blue uniform, Selene had a dark blue, and Celestia's was a mix of yellow and orange.

"I do hope you aren't thinking of distracting a fellow test taker." the boy from before remarked, focusing on Izuku when their brother noticed that the girl who had saved him from falling had been assigned to this portion of the exam ground, as he had no doubt thought about thanking her before the exam started, and the uptight boy likely thought he was planning on trying to sabotage another student's chances.

"Honestly dude, take a chill pill. He was just thinking of talking to someone to pass the time." Selene stated, as she didn't like the uptight boy, because while she understood that this was an important day for everyone, and knew that being focused would be a good thing for everyone, she also knew that they had some time before the seven exam areas were readied for the exam and could afford this for the time being.

Annnd START! Present Mic loudly said, his voice coming from the top of a tower that overlooked all seven testing areas, while at the same time the doors to the testing areas, replicas of a portion of a city, though while everyone else stalled for a time, confused by the statement since they were expecting a countdown, Selene and Celestia were already moving, both of them activating their transformation Quirks without delay, What's the matter? There's no such thing as a countdown on a battlefield! Run, examinees, RUN! Consider the baton tossed!

Izuku barely had time to understand what was going on as the rest of the exam takers in his section raced after his sisters, a fact that was followed by him racing after everyone else, where he noticed that neither of his sisters were holding back, due to the fact that they tore through each robot that came at them. Selene rushed around with the speed of her tiger form, or even her hybrid form since she could switch between the two nearly instantly, her claws tearing through the robots that had the nerve to challenge her, while at the same time her attacks were as precise as Mirko's were. Celestia, on the other hand, had a different approach as she focused on letting her hands and feet be her dragon claws, while at the same time giving herself her tail and wings, the latter allowing her to pull herself out of danger and shield herself while the former was used to crush those that challenged her. Izuku found that both of his sisters moved down different paths, they wanted to do their best without ruining the experience for the other or for himself, yet down one path he found Celestia taking a deep breath before loosing a burst of fire from her mouth, just like a dragon, tearing through only her enemies.

He, on the other hand, was still scared senseless and even someone else came to his aid when a robot showed up to fight him, the one that seemed to be French, based on some of the words he used, as he fired a laser beam from his navel area, tearing down the robot, before rushing off with a friendly smile on his face.

It was in that instant that Izuku realized what he lacked and what his sisters possessed, for one he lacked the insight that both of them were known form, the ability to grasp what was happening in any given situation and react accordingly, often coming to his defense or the defense of others. He also had none of their profound and otherworldly agility, which allowed them to get involved with whatever was going on without being late, despite the one time with the sludge villain, but he was willing to forgive that since it was his fault for sending them on their way. Izuku also understood that he really lacked their judgement, the ability to face any obstacle and threat with a calm and collected composure, as he was often a coward and he usually fled in fear when Kacchan bullied him, in comparison to how his sisters reacted. And, at the very top of it all, was his lack of battle prowess, as he lacked the valor, bravery, and combat abilities that both Selene and Celestia were showing to the Pro Heroes that were no doubt watching over the various exams.

In fact, as he came to terms with everything, the gimmick villain showed up, a massive green robot that seemed more like a war machine with how big it was, the so called 'Menace of Supreme Dread' as he heard over the intercoms, meaning Present Mic was definitely watching this.

"We're screwed." Izuku commented, though this time he couldn't help but be fearful over this discovery, there was no way he could realistically fight the massive machine that was wrecking part of the city, while at the same time he found that both of his sisters seemed unfazed by this discovery.

Even as he cowered, however, Izuku heard someone call out in pain and found that the girl who had saved him earlier had fallen into some of the rubble from the Menace's arrival, in fact it looked like it might crush her, to which he acted on instinct, he launched himself into the air and punched the robot in the face, shattering it's face like it was nothing.

"You've got to be shitting me. He really did inherit it." Selene remarked, as that power was definitely One For All, the sheer destructive power was unmistakable, and it was in that moment that both she and Celestia noticed that not only was Izuku's right arm broken, from the elbow to his fist, but so were both of his legs.

As she and Celestia got ready to catch their brother, they could see each other doing the same thing, the gravity girl was the first one on the scene, listing herself up into the air with her Quirk while riding on something she raised, allowing her to get up to Izuku's level and smacked his cheek. Such a thing allowed her to place him under her ability, which was followed by the pair floating down until they were within range of her safely releasing her skill, even though the gravity girl ended up lightly throwing up in the process, like this was more than she could handle. Celestia rushed over to her brother and Selene found that she seemed to be tapping into another of her innate powers, as the sun had the power to give and take, so her sister was no doubt using her power, her magic, to ease the pain that Izuku was in, even though Selene knew she likely had no idea what she was doing. As she thought about that the ground quaked as two more Menaces rose out of their hiding places, no doubt a last attempt to scare the examinees or force them to act, where Selene utilized both Tiger and Hydra together as she wrapped her serpent power around the feet of one and used her own power to knock it down.

As Selene landed near her brother, however, the last Menace advanced on them, which was when Celestia sighed for a few seconds as she raised a finger towards the sky and an orb of solar energy, like a miniature sun, formed above her, where she swung her hand and the orb went flying straight through the robot, destroying it's core, before vanishing into bits of energy as the Menace collapsed on Selene's ruined foe.

"I... I don't believe it... she really does hold such an amazing Quirk." one of the other examinees commented, while the boy with glasses just stood there, as everyone had heard the rumors about the girls who had two Quirks each, all four Quirks being powerful on their own right, and yet 'Sunshine' was the mythical one, the power to use the sun's power, and now they knew that it really existed.

Selene sighed as she and Celestia stood near Izuku, while an elderly lady called 'Recovery Girl', a hero who specialized in the art of healing and dressed like a combat nurse, whose Quirk allowed her to amplify and speed up someone's natural healing process, and she was able to heal Izuku with a single smooch. Of course he would be out for a time, and Recovery Girl told them that he'd be up and about by the time they had to take the written exam, so the sisters made sure he would be fine while he rested, even though Selene's mind had a maelstrom of thoughts. She had all the confirmation she needed to tell her father that Izuku had, in fact, been chosen as the next wielder of One For All, the Ninth based on the tales Hisashi shared with her in the past, and she had a feeling her father would be pissed by how All Might had prepared his son for using such a powerful Quirk. At the same time it made Selene more annoyed than she had been previously, as her brother had fractured and broken three of his limbs when using the Quirk for the first time and knew that his lack of skill would lead to that same thing happening more in the future, something she and Celestia would have to counter, especially with Celestia unlocking the power to heal somewhat.

Selene rested her head against the wall that was behind her, because while she knew what was going on she wasn't happy with the end results, something that really made her wonder what the future held for her, her siblings, and the rest of the various exam takers.
