Chapter 1 – Interested

On the 3-A classroom, three people were talking:

The first one was a blonde boy with cowlick hair. He had a plain face, but a gentle smile.

The second one was a black-haired boy with an awkward aura. He was trying to hold the conversation with the other two.

The third one was a girl with long blue hair that twists around itself at the waist area. Her eyes were in the same blue-tone, and she had a happy expression.

They are U.A's Big Three: The students with more potential.

"Togata, when do you think that the U.A's Sports Festival for the freshmen will start?" – Asked the bluenette. She was excited to see more people… And their quirks.

She is a curious person, and her blunt nature just adds to it. She will often ask invasive or off-putting questions. Her name is Nejire Hado (1st name, 2nd name). Her quirk allows her to send shockwaves through her body, and its even possible to take down two villains with Gigantification Quirks. She can also fly with them.

Nejire is intrigued by other's quirks and unique physical features, and her curiosity and bluntness increase that exponentially.

She is often taken control by the black-haired one. His name is Tamaki Amajiki.

He is a socially-awkward person, with low self-confidence and also an Inferiority-Complex. He often thinks that he is not good enough, and needs others to confirm that he did it right.

The other one, who Nejire asked the question, is called Mirio Togata. He is considered the 'leader' of the Big Three. He is the best candidate for No. 1 Hero for the future.

Even though he receives a lot of praise, he doesn't let his ideals blind him, and has a hero-like personality. He is a perfect example of a hero.

After receiving the question, he looked at Hado.

"I'm not… But I have an idea. Maybe in a week or so, based on our freshman's Sports Festival." – Togata answered the bluenette.

"Ok, thank you!" – She thanked him – "Also… Thankfully they decided that the senior's Sports Festival will be held later, therefore we can watch the first-years! I'm so excited… I want to see more quirks." – She added excitedly.

"Just don't go overboard…" – Amajiki warned her for he is the one in charge of keeping her form embarrassing more people… He remembered a lot of things that happened between the three.

After a couple of minutes, in another classroom, the teacher arrived.

He had a pessimistic and grumpy aura around him. He had longish black hair that covered a part of his eyes, and he was wearing a bandage-scarf.

"Sit down everybody. I have an important announcement today." – Announced the teacher.

His name is Shota Aizawa, or Eraserhead – his hero name.

He is a very gloomy and pessimistic person and doesn't show affection or anything to the classroom, but actually, cares for them. He doesn't show that directly though… Wait… Does it means he is a TSUNDERE!? … I'll drop this… for now.

And after his announcement, the class started to speak with themselves, making a ruckus.

"Shut up…" – He said in a stern voice, making everyone stop to talk instantly – "… I am here to say that we will have the U.A's Sports Festival, and so you will have a free week to train." – He said as the classroom started to create a bigger ruckus.

The teacher sighed at this and decided to wait a bit.

'This is going to be a pain…' – He thought to himself.

After a week, the entire class prepared themselves. It was now the opening ceremony for the festival.

Bakugo, who was the Player Representative, went to the stage to perform his… ehrm… Speech?

"I will win this. I will be first place." – Bakugo said it with a straight face and caused the entire classroom to be targeted by the rest.

And so, Midnight announced that the first event will be The Perilous Obstacle Race Around The Stadium.

It is just as the name says, they will race to the end. First place wins.

Meanwhile, the Big Three were watching it on the TV that was placed inside the classroom. Everyone was paying attention to everything.

When Bakugo said that, the entire class chuckled, except for two people: Tamaki and Mirio.

Tamaki didn't mind, and Mirio noticed that he was being serious.

Nejire was chuckling at that. It was amusing for her.

'I can't wait to see more quirks!' – She thought to herself excitedly.

'Calm down…' – Tamaki thought to himself as if he read her mind.

After that, the Event started.

Everyone started running, and when they arrived at the first obstacle, a certain bi-colored haired boy made a giant wall of ice, killing a robot, blocking the path and easing his way out.

'Interesting strategy…' – Mirio thought to himself.

After that, the rest of the competitors – 1-A especially – started to make the way out of there.

There was a huge variety of quirks showing here and there. Everyone was using their quirks… except for one person…

'Why isn't that boy using his quirk? I'm SO curious!' – Nejiki thought to herself as she looked to a certain green and black haired boy.

He was currently running without his quirk, utilizing solely his own and pure strength.

She saw him picking a part of a robot.

'Is his quirk related to metal?' – She pondered while watching. Her eyes were not leaving him for one moment.

Suddenly, another robot approached him, and he slashed that robot-part at the robot, killing him.

The boy was now running towards the objective.

'He didn't use his quirk, I'm sure… Why?' – She thought, still looking at the boy.

After he ran, slashed some robots and ran, he arrived at the Second Obstacle: The Fall. That obstacle consisted of a mini-canyon with some platforms, and they had to go across it. There were also some ropes here and there.

The green-haired boy got a rope, and walked through cautiously, holding for his dear life. His eyes were not filled with fear, but determination.

'Not even here? WHEN IS HE USING IT?' – Hado thought to herself, still looking at the boy.

For some reason, she forgot the interest on the other participant's quirks but focused on the boy who hadn't show his.

She was anxiously waiting to see his quirk.

And so, after crossing the 'canyon', he arrived at the Third Obstacle: The Minefield.

The boy looked and saw the two leaders were too far away.

Still holding the metal-part, he had an idea.

'USE YOUR FREAKING QUIRK!' – The bluenette was screaming inside her mind.

She noticed that he stopped walking, and saw him caving some bombs carefully with the robot part as the other participants that passed him glared.

'What are you doing? You can't stop now!' – Nejire thought to herself. She was rooting for him.

After a minute or so, the boy got a lot of bombs arranged in a pile.

'Is he doing what I think he is doing?' – Hado asked herself rhetorically.

He got the metal part and jumped at the pile.

'He is…' – That answered the bluenette.

BOOM!

Suddenly a huge pink explosion resounded throughout the entire place as the boy disappeared from where he was.

A streak of pink smoke was seen flying, and the boy was quickly catching up to the leaders.

'I want to see his quirk… SO BADLY! I mean, it isn't possible for someone quirkless to get in here, is it?' – She thought to herself.

Even though she is totally curious about other's quirks and unique physicalities, she had never been so interested in someone's quirk like that since she saw All Might fight criminals at the news for the first time.

After that, he was falling…. However, the green-haired boy didn't plan the landing, so he was about to fall face-first into the ground.

Time seemed to slow down for him and Nejire.

The two leaders were surpassing Izuku.

'It's over for him…' – The bluenette thought to herself just before seeing something that she wasn't expecting.

The boy, before falling to the ground, with a determined face, picked the metal piece, and slammed it onto the ground, causing an explosion and sending him further away. He was now in first place, running from the others.

The bi-colored hair decided to use his Ice-quirk and make a platform for him to go quicker.

The explosive sand-colored hair boy started using his explosions to follow the green-colored hair…

It was too late.

"Winner… Izuku Midoriya, from the Hero Course!" – President Mic yelled in excitement.

After that, the camera zoomed to the winner, and Nejire looked at the boy.

"He won without using his quirk…" – She mumbled as she started to blush a bit. She wasn't aware of that, but Tamaki was. He chuckled softly and quietly.

'Someone's got a crush, eh?' – The black-haired boy thought to himself, grinning slightly as not to call attention to himself.

"Impressive! I didn't see him using his quirk once… It shows that heroes are more than quirk vessels, but instead, they are people with capabilities." – Mirio said happily as he saw the winner smile.

"Yeah." – Amajiki agreed.

Nejire was still staring at the boy, with her blush still visible.

"Earth to Nejire. Hello?" – Tamaki said, snapping her out of her thoughts.

"Y-Yeah, I thought it was pretty interesting…" – She said, blushing slightly from embarrassment.

Even though she is blunt and curious, she is still bound to embarrassment.

'I am interested in that boy… Izuku Midoriya.' – She thought to herself, as she smiled.
