"Begin." The stern voice of All Might declares over the roar of the waves at Mustafu Beach. In his skinny form, All Might sits on the top of a lifeguard tower overlooking a mock arena beneath him set up for his training session for Izuku.

Flanked on all sides by several pro heroes, Izuku looks between the ones in front of him trying to sense who's gonna make the first move. To his right Miruko stands in all her short glory giving him a wide smirk with her ears perked straight up above her head. To his left his father takes a long drag from his cigar before blowing out a smoke ring above his head. To his rear left side, Nemuri Kayama aka Midnight brushes a hand through her indigo locks of hair, her being the only one of the pros who's wearing a bikini showing off the purple airbending tattoos. Opposite her stands another new face, this man nearly 9 ft tall with the appearance of a killer whale and one of the most talented and powerful waterbenders that's become a pro hero, Gang Orca. Finally directly in front of Izuku stands Aizawa, relaxed and laid back as usual with his hands in his pockets expectantly waiting for the show to begin.

When All Might's words register in Izuku's mind, he shifts his gaze directly to his father and makes a B-line right for him. Hisashi smirks seeing Izuku launch himself towards him, the father and son being neck and neck against each other in sparring match wins. Hisashi pulls as much smoke as he can in from his cigar before leaning forwards and exhaling all of it in front of himself creating a cloud of smoke trying to distract Izuku. This doesn't work aside from just burning up half of Hisashi's cigar as the airbending assisted sprint Izuku used to blitz him sucks all of the smoke past the avatar as the distance closes between them. Izuku opens up his attack with a flaming right handed overhead punch aiming right for Hisashi's midsection causing the older man to have to guard against the attack. As the punch connects with Hisashi's forearms the fireball connected with Izuku's fist drives Hisashi backwards from a point blank explosion. Bahamut is forced to blast flames through his feet to stop his backwards movement as the blast sends him flying backwards bouncing against the sand.

Turning to his right, Izuku nimbly dodges a knuckle punch that Aizawa is throwing right for him. Raising his arm upwards he pushes the back of Aizawa's upper arm creating even more of an opening on his mentor's back. From his crouched position Izuku lunges forwards and plants his knee firmly in Aizawa's stomach before slamming him in the upper chest with a deluge of sand from the beach. Seeing Miruko and Gang Orca preparing two attacks towards him, Izuku tucks his arms inwards towards his waist then spins his entire body creating a cyclone of sand and air around his waist using it to gain altitude on the five pro heroes. Miruko throws two hard hook punches in the air aiming upwards towards Izuku causing bursts of sand to be thrown towards him. Orca uses his own waterbending to draw in some of the water from the ocean creating two large streams over his arms and across his shoulders. He turns and whips an arm towards Izuku trying to use it to grab a hold of the avatar and pull him back to the ground.

Midnight begins bending the air creating a rotating column going the opposite direction of the winds Izuku is using to keep himself in the air. Seeing what the airbender woman is planning. Izuku maneuvers the cyclone away from Miruko's attack before allowing Gang Orca's water to get close enough to him that he can take control of it, pulling away a great deal of the water that the pro hero is using to then use it against Nemuri. Spinning his hand in a circular motion as he shoves it forwards he launches the tentacle of water towards the busy airbender snatching her left arm. Nemuri's baby blue eyes go wide in shock seeing this as she's abruptly yanked off her feet then thrown into Miruko. From behind him his father recovers from the initial attack Izuku had launched towards him and begins going through the motions to create a bolt of lightning.

"I have a feeling that Izuku is gonna start at the top of our class when we begin." Momo says as she sits on a smaller tower just underneath All Might's own, gingerly licking an icecream cone. The black haired woman is dressed in a two piece bright red bikini with a large sun hat and sunglasses on. "Do you think it's all that fair to let him actually participate in the practical entrance exam?" She asks, as Hisashi lets loose the blue lightning bolt towards Izuku. The avatar easily catches the bolt of lightning then sends it and three other bolts back towards his father in a motion so fast it looked like it was all the same technique.

"Probably not." All Might answers before cringing slightly as the explosion from the lightning sends both Hisashi and Aizawa flying in opposite directions. "But he has to be held to the same standards as everyone else when it comes to admissions."

"Couldn't you just recommend him to the hero course?" Momo asks, gesturing with her free hand as the two continue to watch the fight. "Would leave a lot more robots for the rest of the examinees. I mean I'm on recommendation and so is Todoroki."

"I asked to not have a recommendation, babe!" Izuku calls out from the middle of his sparring match, "I'm gonna earn my way in, just like everyone else. I'm not even gonna use any other bending aside from earthbending the entire time."

"So you're giving yourself a purposeful handicap, why?" She asks, as she tilts her sunglasses down to shoot a look at her husband.

"I need to use it more, and it's the practical exam! I get plenty of free practice with metal bending!" Izuku calls out before slamming the cyclone he's controlling into the sand. The cyclone explodes outwards in a wall of loose sand and air before it's followed by a wall of fire pushing all five pro heroes backwards.

"Well you can't fault him for his work ethic." All Might says before seeing something in the pros. "Dammit woman! I said no lava bending!" Toshiori shouts at Miruko who is creating a molten throwing star from the concrete of the beach wall.

"Oh come on! You said we could have fun!" Miruko yells as she drops the lava onto the sand.

"He hasn't started with lava bending yet, why on earth would you use that against him in a sparring match?!" Miruko's ears go limp as she looks at the number one pro with the most pathetic face she can muster to try to get on his good side. "You can try that all you want Rumi, you know that routine won't work on me."

"You used to be fun Toshi! You old fuck!" She shouts indignantly before kicking the sand like a disappointed child.

"I mean, I'm having fun." Izuku says as he coats himself in water creating a wall of tentacles around himself using the octopus style that Joki had taught him.

"Ooohhh... mama likey." Midnight says seeing the aquatic tentacles being controlled by Izuku. However this statement earns her a lightning bolt thrown by Momo in her general direction. "Hey. There's no need for that Princess."

"You make any more lewd comments about him, and there will be a need for it." Azu-Momo says as blue flames burn in her amber eyes as she glares at the skimpily clad airbender.

"Oh you're no fun, guess a threesome is definitely out of the picture." She says with a mock dejected tone before having to jump nearly 30ft into the air to dodge a massive blue fireball thrown by Momo.

"That's enough for today." All Might calls out, giving a wave of his hand to signal the end of the match. "We're definitely going to start working a bit more with sand bending Young Midoriya. You're using airbending to control the sand and not earth."

"I'll keep that in mind," Izuku answers before walking over to help his father off the floor with a cheeky smirk on his face. "I think I'm in the lead now with that one."

"So you are." Hisashi responds as Izuku helps him up off the ground. "But," He says before reaching up to his goggles to wipe the sweat from his forehead. As his arm passes over his skin, Izuku sees a red mark on his father's forehead. "I still have a few tricks up my sleeves."

"Hate to break up this father son moment, but congrats Avatar. You managed to beat me." Aizawa says as he dusts himself off from their bout. "But you still have much to learn." He says as Izuku gives him a triumphant smirk. Aizawa lets out a half chuckle before pulling hard on his capture gear causing Izuku's legs to get snatched out from underneath him.

"Dogpile!" Miruko announces before jumping upwards and dropping an elbow on Izuku kicking up a ton of dust as she lands hard on his stomach.

"Try not to break him, the entrance exam is tomorrow."Aizawa deadpans before having to dust himself off even more. "I expect you to have over 100 points, Midoriya. I'll see you when classes start." With that last statement, Aizawa pulls a flask from within his sweater, takes a swig, then walks off.

The following morning, Izuku gets himself ready to head to UA campus, tying on his red shoes, the earth kingdom bending attire that All Might had given him and his wedding ring. Picking up his glider staff, he double checks his bag making sure that he has everything he needs for the written test and the main entrance exam. Momo has lovingly packed him lunch in a small bento box, and she is seated on the couch of the Midoriya family home with Mushu and their new pet baby dragon Dio seated nearby. "Save some points for the rest of the examinees, Zuzu, it won't be fair for the rest of them." Momo says as Izuku opens the front door ready to leave. With a smile that's been worn by each avatar before him, he gives her a kiss goodbye before leaving the house. With a flick of the wrist the glider staff expands allowing him to take flight, with a running start Izuku leaps high into the sky.

The flight from Tokyo to Mustafu takes a little more than a half hour giving Izuku plenty of time to pick up breakfast along the way. After grabbing a bite to eat, he continues his journey to the university. As he gets closer and closer, he notices a few other airbenders flying in either on a flying bison or their own glider staves and wingsuits. Inasa makes it a point to try to get his sky bison Iggy to create as much turbulence for Izuku as possible when he gets close. However despite Inasa messing with him Izuku notices a couple other airbenders he doesn't recognise. As he comes in for a landing, one of the other airbenders lands fairly close to him. From the robes he can tell that she's female but the rest of her body is completely invisible. Next to land is a brown haired woman with the tattoos of an airbending master along her body. After they land Inasa is quick to land Iggy purposefully on top of Izuku.

"Mornin' Deku." Inasa greets as he slides off the back of Iggy then crouches down besides the flattened avatar. "How's the great and powerful avatar doin' huh?" He asks sarcastically, which earns him a middle finger from the exposed hand beneath the fluffy sky bison. "Iggy, up." Inasa says prompting the bison to moan then stand up freeing Izuku from underneath it.

"You could say hi like a normal person. Not crush me underneath an adolescent sky bison you Jackass." Izuku says as he slaps Inasa's hand away. "Why is it everytime we meet up you always do something to annoy me?" Izuku asks, this statement causes the other airbenders nearby to start chuckling.

"What's life without a few pranks?" Inasa asks, which only earns him a stream of smoke blown into his face. "Rude."

"You landed a 7 ton fluffy flying slobber monster right on top of me." Izuku responds before tapping his staff on Inasa's forehead and walks past him.

"Uh... hi um, you wouldn't happen to be the avatar are you?" The brunette that was chuckling at Inasa and Izuku's antics asks. Izuku turns to see the shorter woman has a bob cut style hair with a small pony tail at the top of her head.

"Yeah, I'm Izuku." He answers looking down at the shorter woman. "What's your name?"

"Oh... I didn't expect you to be so down to earth." She admits, "I'm Ochako, from the eastern air temple, I didn't think I'd ever get to meet the avatar!" Ochako shouts, "It's nice to get to meet you in person, hopefully we'll be in class together!" She exclaims before rushing off to go to her testing hall.

"Well looks like you got a fan club already Deku." Katsuki says as he and Shouto walk up from behind. "I don't think Yaomomo would be all that kind on sharing." He jokes as he taps a hand on Izuku's shoulder, beside him with a gold engagement band on her finger is Camie. "You aint the only one getting married, broccoli boy." He gloats before nearly punching Izuku in the face as he and Camie go to show off their engagement bands.

"You can gloat all you want when the exams over Bakugou, you're gonna make us late at this rate." Shouto chimes in as he walks past the three.

"Well he's a party pooper." Camie comments, "But we do have to go. You're totes gonna get in Deku. Good luck!' She cheers before following Katsuki inside.

Izuku follows the two up the large staircase into the main halls of the exam rooms, along the way benders and quirk users from all over the firenation and the world stare as he walks by. Though the past couple of years as the avatar, he's gotten used to the publicity. Even through the course of the written exam the other test takers couldn't help but shoot glances towards the avatar as he went through the same exam like the rest of them. At the end of the day, after all that power he's still just a boy trying to follow his dreams. The exam itself wasn't fairly difficult but he ended up taking the entirety of the time that was allotted for them to use. After submitting the scantron he follows the rest of the students into the auditorium where the rules and expectations of the practical exam will be taking place. He scotches in beside Katsuki and Shouto waiting for the presentation to begin. A few minutes later and Presentation Michael, err sorry Present Mic walks on stage. The boombox themed hero is one of the top quirk user heroes and with him presenting the exam this is going to be interesting.

"Welcome examinees! Can I get a... Yeeeeaaaahhhhh?!" He shouts into the microphone, but doesn't get what he asked for as the entire audience remains silent with only a cricket chirping to break the silence. "Oof tough crowd, tough crowd. Anyways Welcome to the UA practical exams, here you are going to be using your bending, or your quirk to destroy several robots that are assigned different point values to earn points that are your grade for this portion of the exam. Now, there are three different robots that have points assigned to each. All of them are painted with the numbers that they're ranked wi-"

"Excuse me!" A male voice calls out from within the crowd. "I believe there is a mistake on the itinerary. It shows that there are 4 robots and not the three you have on the display. Surely it's unbecoming of UA to make such a mistake."

"I... was getting to that. Yes there is a fourth robot but it is not worth any points, it is an obstacle and should be avoided." Present mic clicks a button and changes the slides on the presentation above him. "Now, everyone will be split into different testing sites, when the buzzer sounds you may begin. Please head to the exits and make your way to the buses."

After getting off the bus, Izuku looks around at the multitude of other prospective students nearby. He notices Ochako seated nearby going through some last minute meditation before the test begins. Opting to follow her lead, Izuku taps his foot on the ground and creates a small stool for him to sit on. He places his knuckles together and closes his eyes, meditating and feeling the air around him and the warmth of the morning sun. As he settles in to the calmness, he feels the air move a fraction of a second before the sound of the buzzer rings through the air. His eyes immediately snap open as he launches himself off the stone platform and sprinting full speed towards Testing site Alpha.

From above the eight test sites, the UA staff all sit watching over the exams below. A few of them pay special attention to Izuku as he easily crushes through the first few robots using both metal bending and earth bending against them. He slams his hands against the chest plate of a three point robot before scrunching his hands and folding the near 2in thick piece of steel in on itself like a piece of tin foil. Rearing back a strange green electricity arcs around his arm as he slams his fist into the internals of the robot, completely destroying the machine with a single punch. "It seems that not only is he the avatar, but he also has one hell of a powerful quirk." A short bear, mouse, cat creature in a suit and vest comments as he watches Izuku tear another robot in half with his bare hands before kicking the ground towards another robot causing a series of stony spikes to erupt from the asphalt and spear several more robots.

"He mentioned yesterday while All Might had us train him that he would only be using earthbending through the exam. Both as a means to get more practical use out of the bending discipline and to challenge himself. He was trained by Bahamut, Endeavor and Madam Blast in firebending, Grandmaster Gedun from the republic city air temple in airbending, the late water hose in waterbending and All Might and Miruko in earth bending." Aizawa responds to the animal quirked principal.

"I don't think he mentioned anything about having a quirk did he?" Midnight asks as she lounges sideways in her chair, spinning a small tornado about in her palm.

"He hasn't had the time to train it, with the local quirk laws not allowing people to use their powers unless they're pros or have special privileges like healers. However he's been in bending schools his entire life so his bending is far more adept than his actual quirk. He's already taken the firebending mastery exam before he graduated from the Lu Ten academy." All Might, "He's definitely one of the strongest Avatars to walk the earth however that begs a very serious question."

"Why does the avatar need to be that powerful?" Aizawa asks.

"We will watch his career with great interest." Nezu says as they shift their attention back to the screens.

Izuku lifts two massive walls on both sides of a group of robots, clapping his hands together he slams the two massive stone walls against the robots crushing them into scrap. With a lull in the robot beatdown, he takes the opportunity to look around and see how the battlefield has changed. He watches as an orange haired airbender jumps clear over a massive wall created by a red headed man before she creates a small tornado around her legs and flies off to attack more robots. The red headed earthbender rears back and slams both fists on the ground creating a lake of lava that swallows several more robots. Across from him, a green haired girl stands near a broken fire hydrant using waterbending to throw razor sharp icicles through the head of a three pointer before squatting down and leaping away. However, a tremor going through the ground alerts him that something is wrong, and whatever that thing is is big.

Closing his eyes he tries to sense for where the tremors are coming from, feeling the ground beneath him. He senses that the tremors are coming down the main street of the fake city, and he can even feel dozens of students running away from the thing that is creating the disturbance. Pulling his arms inwards towards himself Izuku spins before jumping upwards into the air creating a tornado beneath himself to get above the buildings. As he gets over the top of the skyscrapers he sees it, looming over several of the buildings and almost as tall as a mountain. A behemoth of steel and technology lumbers down the main streets of the testing grounds, dozens of students rushing away from the mechanical monstrosity. Leaning forwards, Izuku maneuvers the tornado through the city streets heading straight for the behemoth. From the air he watches as dozens of students make their escape from the robot, even seeing Ochako and the rest of the airbenders nimbly make their escape from the metal beast. "This might be fun." He thinks to himself before moving the twister over in front of the massive machine preparing to fight it.

As he sets himself down on the ground, the massive robot looms over him, grabbing two nearby buildings as it looks down towards him. Izuku smirks before raising a hand and wiping away the concealer that Momo had put over his forehead to conceal his ace in the hole. On the center of his forehead, a prominent agni eye sits centered between his eyes. The vertical orb is flanked by two crossing tails on either side that make the center eye look as if it's a pupil within a larger one. At the top and bottom of the vertical eye are two winged markings that frame the entire tattoo. He inhales sharply before clenching his abs and leaning forwards, firing a bright blue and white beam of condensed fire directly into the joint of the right shoulder on the robot. A massive explosion rips through metal, rubber and wiring as it practically tears the limb from the mechanical beast. With its opposite hand, the machine points the three pronged claw towards Izuku before firing it towards him, but the avatar is far too nimble for the giant machine to catch him.

Lunging backwards, Izuku sprays golden flames through his feet as the claw slams into the asphalt crushing it under its enormous weight. Seizing the opportunity, Izuku blasts the other arm with another combustion beam, severing the massive claw from the beast with another massive explosion. Seeing the exposed wiring within the beast, Izuku crouches down and points two fingers forwards from his fists. Swinging his arms in a circle in front of him he begins charging up bright blue lightning in his hands. Pointing both hands forwards he fires two bright bolts of lightning from both hands directly for the exposed wiring within the robot. The electricity overload from the lightning shorts out the robot causing its eyes to flicker and dim as its internal electrical system is melted. Charging One for All through his body, he shifts into a runner's stance and takes off using its full power to propel himself at the metal beast. As he nears the giant robot, he jumps near the last second going hundreds of feet into the air in a moment. Rearing backwards Izuku curls his right arm up and back clenching his fist pouring as much power from One for All into this punch.

The punch creates a massive shockwave that crushes the head of the giant robot causing the entire thing to collapse under its own weight as explosions rock through the machine. The tingling sensation left in his arm is completely different than that of lightning bending, but he doesn't have time to think as he begins to fall towards the ground. Flexing his legs, he sprays fire through the soles of his shoes propelling himself towards the ground with his firebending. As he comes to a stop, the ending siren of the exam. The other examinees look on in awe at what this new avatar is capable of.
