A My Hero Academia Fanfiction: Age of Heroes Chapter 3: Class 1A by RVasil

The followings weeks were like a flurry of activity filled with excitement for Kinus. The high he was on from receiving the news that he got accepted into U.A. seemingly made time dilate. Everything just blurred together for him. One day, he was at his desk, pen gliding over the papers he had to fill in and submit, in accordance to finalizing his enrollment. The next, he was outside, doing some errands that involved him having to go to Kiyashi Ward to get himself some school supplies and other necessary incidentals. He had to pick out a school bag to fit all the books he'd be carrying. He released a sigh of relief upon realizing that the shopping mall had shoes in his size. He was admittedly dreading the tedious search to find dragon sized shoes.

At the end of it all, Kinus found himself hanging his school uniform at the front of his closet, admiring the colors that he was now going to wear. The gray color palette, highlighted by the nature green accents, with a bold red necktie to top it all off. It surprisingly didn't clash with his strikingly blue scales. The dragon smiled wryly, looking at the back to find a tailored made hole in the slacks just for him. Tails always did provide a perplexing fashion problem, but U.A. was quick to send the dragon specially made clothes to accommodate his body physique.

All in all, it was a sight to behold. Come next day, Kinus was going to step out of their front door, proud to say that he was a U.A. High School student.

"Okay, Kinus...you can do this..." The dragon mumbled to himself as he walked across the pavement, the U.A. building looming nearer and nearer. "It's like being back at school...you've been through school numerous times..." The dragon nodded to himself, lightly slapping the sides of his face and doing his best to shake the nervousness away. But the dragon was so lost in thought that he didn't realize where he was walking. Kinus ended up bumping into someone and that led to the dragon apologizing profusely. It was only when he paid attention that he realized who it was.

"It's fine, just be careful next time," the boy answered in that familiar calm and collected tone.

"Tokoyami...?" he voiced, eyeing the bird in front of him. The spiky hair feathers, the red choker on his neck, the serious eyes. Yep. That was him. "Tokoyami! You're here!"

The bird nodded, allowing himself to smile. "That I am. I see I was not mistaken in believing that you'd get in. How are you doing, Hazani?"

"Where do I even start?" Kinus asked rhetorically. He chuckled, glad that someone was there to help alleviate the anxiety. "It's been hectic. What class are you in anyway?"

"I am in Class 1-A. You?"

The dragon grinned. "I'm the same too!" Kinus looked visibly relieved. The fact that he already knew someone before school started proper helped calm his nerves. Not wanting to waste time any further, the two made their way inside.

To say that U.A. was big, was an understatement. It was obvious from the get go that in U.A. no expense was too high. Everything was polished to the point where you could see your own reflection from it. Screens that served as school bulletin boards that detailed various school club activities were present. Even the lockers had their own sophisticated lock set in place. The building was a proud statement of form and function going hand in hand. There weren't many students around and Kinus surmised that it was probably because they were all heading to the gymnasium nearby for the opening ceremonies. The students were tasked to first meet with their homeroom teacher however, who was going to lead them there, and he was to be found at their designated classroom.

"Class 1-A..." Kinus mumbled, looking at the signboards above the doors.

"Hazani," Tokoyami called out, "over here." The dragon joined him in standing before the slightly ajar door and already they could hear some students chatting inside. "Let's introduce ourselves."

Kinus nodded and followed after Tokoyami who confidently strode in. The dragon felt himself visibly gulp upon feeling everyone's eyes on him. There were already a fair number of students inside, around seven or so, and they all stopped talking to see who were the newcomers. Immediately, one of them came up to greet them.

"Good morning!" he called out boldly, "I am from Somei Private Academy. My name is Tenya Iida." He stuck out a hand for a handshake. "Nice to meet you, fellow classmates."

Kinus glanced and noted how Tokoyami eyed Iida carefully, before his eyes darted to the handshake. He then reached out to shake it lightly. "Fumikage Tokoyami," he answered, sounding marginally less enthused than Iida. Kinus smiled a little. The contrast between the two was rather amusing. The bird then moved to go to his chosen seat, which was near the back.

Iida made a beeline towards Kinus and stuck out his hand. "You are?"

"Kinus Hazani." Kinus reached out to shake Iida's hand. "It's nice to meet you too, Iida."

"The pleasure is all mine." The young boy straightened up his glasses before glancing at his watch. "It's already half past the hour and the others aren't here yet."

"Oh, lighten up, Iida," one of the boys chimed in. He had shoulder length hair and a simplistic grin plastered across his face. "I'm sure they're just taking their time." His eyes then darted to Kinus. "I'm Hanta Sero, by the way."

"Nice to meet you too, Sero," Kinus added, smiling at him.

Kinus looked at the layout of the classroom and quickly decided where he wanted to sit. Everyone seemed nice and would be a good seatmate but he preferred to be seated next to someone he was already somewhat familiar with. That would have been Tokoyami. It just so happened that there was a vacant seat next to him. Perfect!

Kinus passed by the rest of the students who were chatting happily with one another, and joined Tokoyami near the back. The bird was quietly observing the rest of the class and only paid Kinus a look as the dragon placed his bag on the empty seat. "I hope you don't mind," Kinus said, almost sounding apologetic.

Tokoyami smiled in response. "I don't. The familiar company is appreciated."

The dragon smiled. Hearing the animated chatter from the rest of the class, Kinus decided to leave Tokoyami and socialize a bit with his classmates. It was always interesting to meet new people and Kinus made it a point to put himself out there, as to present the best foot forward. It would seem that the group was chatting animatedly about school rankings.

"It is a crying shame that I only reached up to sixth place!" Iida looked down the ground, clenching his fist in frustration.

"Cheer up, Iida, at least you got into the rankings," a girl chimed in. She had unruly, short pink hair with yellow horns protruding from her head that reminded Kinus vaguely of an alien. "My name wasn't anywhere near that at all."

"I can sympathize with you on that," Kinus added, throwing himself into their conversation.

"You too, huh?" she rhetorically asked. "I'm Mina Ashido, nice to meet you, Hazani!"

"Nice to meet you, Ashido," Kinus replied back.

As the others conversed, a voice came from the side and Kinus saw it was from Sero. "Hazani, can I ask you something?"

"Oh, uh, yeah, sure, what is it?"

He scratched his chin and looked at Kinus from head to toe. "If you don't mind me asking, and I don't mean to offend you with this question at all, but...what are you supposed to be?"

Kinus blinked, caught off guard by the question. It wasn't often he was asked what he was suppose to be as he always thought it was obvious, much like how Tokoyami was obviously a bird.

"He's obviously a lizard, dummy."

The dragon's eye twitched upon hearing the statement and Kinus allowed himself to smile wryly and take it in stride. The answer came from the girl in front of Sero. She had short purple hair with asymmetrical bangs. What stood out to Kinus the most was the fact that she had plug like earlobes that swung every now and then when she moved her head.

"Is he though, Jirou?" Sero asked back, looking at Kinus.

"You're both wrong," Iida chimed in. He had his hand under his chin and spared Kinus a thoughtful stare before answering, "Look, he has horns and lizards don't have horns."

"Thank you," Kinus smiled. He was glad someone finally noticed the thing that stood out of him, literally. The dragon decided to humor himself and ask, "Would anyone else like to try their hand at guessing?"

"You're a dragon," came a voice from behind Kinus. It was from the girl who had seated herself behind his own seat. Unlike everyone else, she looked visibly more mature, having an air of poise and formality to her. She had fair skin and had black hair with bangs to the right that was tied back in a large spiky ponytail. "That's what you are."

"But I thought dragons had whiskers?" Sero asked, sounding confused. "Most of the ones I've seen have those."

Kinus decided to alleviate the boy's confusion. "Well yes, but that only applies to a certain group of dragons, specifically the ones born here."

Sero nodded, realizing he had learned something new. Ashido then threw him question in, asking, "But don't dragons have wings?"

Kinus head dropped towards the floor, looking a bit deflated. "I sadly didn't get that part of the Quirk."

Realizing that she may have hurt his feelings, Ashido was quick to apologize. "I didn't mean to..."

Kinus waved a dismissive hand at her and smiled reassuringly. "It's fine. It was a honest question anyway." The dragon made his way back to his seat, wanting to relax. The girl that guessed what he was correctly tapped him on the shoulder. Kinus turned around to find her giving him a warm smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you Hazani. I'm Momo Yaoyorozu."

"Likewise," he greeted.

The doors opened and that grabbed everyone's attention as a batch of new students began to file in. Kinus allowed himself to relax, glad that he was mixing quite well with his new found classmates. The rest of the new students began to introduce themselves into the fray. Katsuki Bakugo was one of them, and immediately Kinus realized he was one student he would actively avoid. Hot headed and arrogant were probably just a few of the adjectives that came to mind for Kinus when he thought of the boy. But, Bakugo, as he found out, wasn't all just bark with no bite.

"I saw his name. He's the top one in the entrance exam," Tokoyami told him.

"Seriously? No way..."

As more of their classmates began to arrive, Kinus found himself looking towards the door more and more. He glanced at his watch and noted that it was only a few minutes left before class hours was going to officially start.

"You look worried," Tokoyami said, catching his attention. "Are you waiting for someone?"

The dragon nodded, letting out a sigh of frustration. His thoughts immediately went to Midoriya. He was hoping that the boy made it in, much like he did. "Yeah...I'm hoping Midoriya made it in."

Tokoyami's head cocked towards the side. "Midoriya?" The bird thought for a moment. "Do you mean Izuku Midoriya?"

Kinus blinked. "Do you know each other?"

The bird shook his head. "No." The bird then smiled knowingly at him. "But if my hunch is right, then you have nothing to fret about."

"Why is that?" Kinus asked.

"Because I saw..."

The door slid opened, grabbing everyone's attention, and a student stepped in. Almost immediately, the worry Kinus had in his system dissipated. He could recognize that green messy hair and the familiar freckled face anywhere. Iida, who was arguing with Bakugo about some classroom decorum stopped in their conversation and made his way towards the newcomer.

"Like I was saying," Tokoyami continued, "I saw his name in the top ten, so you have nothing to worry about."

"Top ten?!" Kinus cried out in surprise. "Midoriya's in the top ten?!"

"Yes. I believe he scored sixty rescue points, with zero villain points," Tokoyami answered cooly.

Kinus watched Midoriya from the distance as he conversed with Iida. It was as if he was seeing him in a new light. He remembered that Midoriya seemed devastated when he was worried that he didn't destroy any robots. The dragon allowed himself to smile. It must have been quite a surprise for him when he found out that you don't necessarily have to destroy robots to get points. It only made Kinus more curious as to what exactly Midoriya's Quirk was.

He was about to rise to catch up with Midoriya when a voice from outside the classroom caught all of their attention.

"Go somewhere else if you want to make friends."

Midoriya, and the girl he was talking to named Ochako Uraraka, turned around to find an adult laying on the ground in what seemed like a yellow sleeping bag. Kinus craned his head to get a good look at the man as he unzipped the bag and stood in front of them. Whoever this guy was, it looked like he needed some more sleep. His hair was disheveled and his eyes were bloodshot. An untrimmed beard was on his face, accompanying a thousand yard stare. There were what looked like bandages that wrapped around his neck, almost looking like a scarf even.

"I'm your homeroom teacher, Shoto Aizawa," he continued, "Nice to meet you all."

The look of shock at the revelation that this dishevelled man was their teacher was clear on everyone's faces. Ignoring their surprise looks, the man reached into his bag and took out a track suit. "It's kind of sudden, but put this on and head out onto the field. Meet me there in fifteen minutes. Anyone who is late will receive a grave penalty." He then walked out, disappearing out of view as fast as he appeared in front of them.

"What was with that guy?" Kinus asked.

"He's a pro hero," Tokoyami answered, standing up. "I'm sure he has his reasons for being the way that he is."

"Well yeah..." Were eccentricity that common among pro heroes? He wasn't sure, but much like everyone else, they all began to head out to do as they were told.

With the fear of a grave penalty, whatever that may have been, spurring them on, everyone moved fast. It was obvious that nobody wanted to get on Aizawa's bad side, especially since it was the first day of school. Kinus made his way into the locker room to change, beginning to undress much like everyone else. He stopped midway however, feeling self conscious as he began to strip off his shirt. He never did feel comfortable letting others see him naked. But now wasn't the time to dawdle. Briefly taking note that everyone was beginning to leave, only then did Kinus undress fully, dropping down his pants and hastily stuffing it into his locker.

"Hazani, are you done yet?"

Kinus nearly had a heart attack upon hearing the voice. He turned around to find it was none other than Tokoyami. "Dude! Don't scare me like that!" He instinctively covered himself with his own tail.

"Sorry," Tokoyami apologized, turning around. The bird gave him a sideways glance then said, "hurry up or we'll be late."

"I'm going, I'm going..." Kinus felt his face flush beet red. The dragon wasn't one to show others how he looked in nothing more than his jockstrap. He knew it was something he needed to get over with at some point however.

After a minute or so, he stepped out of the lockers and found Tokoyami waiting for him. "Come on, let's go," he said, briskly walking out towards the exit.

The sun beat down on them as they stepped out on the field and made their way towards the rest of Class-1A, who were eagerly awaiting what Aizawa had in store for them. Finding the teacher to not be there yet, Kinus took this chance to catch up with Midoriya. "Hey Midoriya," he called out.

The green haired kid turned his head and his face lit up like a Christmas tree upon seeing the blue dragon. "Hazani! You made it! I can't believe it! We're actually classmates."

"You guys know each other?" The girl that was named Uraraka joined in on their conversation. "Nice to meet you," she added, smiling up at Kinus.

"Nice to meet you too." The dragon then scratched his head. "Well, you could say that. We just met each other during the entrance exam." Kinus then blinked upon realizing something. "Oh that's right! You were the one that stopped Midoriya from falling down on the ground!"

Uraraka lightly laughed. "Yep! That was me! And that's not the only thing I did."

"Oh?" Tokoyami chimed in, finally making his presence known in the conversation. "Do tell."

Midoriya visibly fidgeted. "I-It was nothing. She just saved me, is all."

"Stop being so modest, Midoriya. You actually saved me!" She then turned to the two boys then said, "you should have seen him! He took down the zero point robot in one punch!"

"Zero point robot...?" Kinus and Tokoyami both asked in unison. They glanced at Midoriya who looked like he'd rather be elsewhere. His face was beginning to flush to a deep red and Kinus wondered if it was because of Uraraka's presence. "As in, THE zero point robot?" Kinus clarified. He probably wouldn't forget that robot any time soon. Being crushed under it left a big impression on him.

Uraraka enthusiastically nodded. She then made a motion of punching into the air. "Just like that! Bam!"

Kinus was about to ask some more when the entire mood between Class-1A seemed to dip as everyone turned around, Aizawa making his presence known to them. "Sheesh, you guys are too noisy..." he mumbled, walking up to them. He cleared his throat and looked at each and every single one of them. "Today...we'll be doing a Quirk Assessment test."

"A test?" Uraraka blurted out. "But what about the orientation?"

"Being a hero means being prepared for anything, at any given moment. That means you don't have time for such leisurely events." Kinus gulped, feeling the tension rising. It was just the first day of school and yet he already felt like he was being thrown into the fire. "U.A. prides itself in being unorthodox when it comes to school traditions." Aizawa raised a tablet he was holding that listed eight different physical fitness tests. They were, in order, the 50 meter dash, grip strength, standing long jumps, repeated side steps, ball throw, long distance run, sit ups and lastly, the seated toe touches. "You kids have been doing these tests since junior high, but you weren't allowed to use your quirks."

Kinus smiled wryly. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't exactly use his quirks as the tests were far too strict for him to be able to use it creatively.

"Bakugou," Aizawa called out, "you finished at the top of the practical exam, right?" Bakugou nodded, prompting Aizawa to continue, asking, "in junior high, what was the farthest distance you've got?

"67 meters," he answered promptly.

"Try doing it with your Quirk."

Bakugou did as he was told, taking the ball into his hands and walking towards the designated circle a few feet away from them. "I don't care what you do, just as long as you stay in that circle and throw that ball."

Kinus watched in anticipation as the blond haired boy prepared himself. A quick flex and getting into the proper form, Bakugou swung his arm and aimed up high into the sky. His hand exploded, rocketing the ball at amazing speeds, before landing quite a fair distance away from them. The shockwave it sent rippled dust from the ground. A beep took everyone's attention and Aizawa promptly showed them his tablet.

"Know your maximum first. That is the most rational way to form the foundation of a hero." The tablet showed the distance Bakugou covered, displaying 705.2 meters.

Everyone was clearly impressed. Some even looked enthusiastic, commenting that this was some sort of fun game they could do. Kinus on the other hand felt a bit concerned. While he wasn't one to doubt his own abilities, the dragon wasn't one who had full confidence in himself either. Sure, he could throw a ball, much like throwing his own dragonic lance. But to throw it as far as 705.2 meters, much less farther than that? He wasn't sure. He glanced in front of him and could see Midoriya looking visibly disturbed. It would seem he wasn't the only one who was having the same thoughts.

"It looks fun, huh?" Aizawa asked. His expression then changed to a dark grin as he said, "Why don't we make things interesting? Whoever comes in last place in all eight tests will be judged to have no potential and will be punished..." Aizawa looked at all of them intensely, "with expulsion."

When that statement landed, everything changed. The look on everyone's faces told one thing was clear. It was do or die...or, in this case, expulsion. It was obvious that no one wanted to be the unfortunate student who had to be removed right off the bat. Kinus spared a glance at everyone's reactions. Tokoyami was expressionless as ever, save for a what look like a confident smirk curling up his lips. Uraraka and Iida both looked determined. The dragon turned his head to see Midoriya and had to pause. The boy looked utterly shaken, holding his right hand with his left.

Kinus took a deep breath. While admittedly concerned for the others, Kinus realized that he needed to also focus on himself. He could be on the chopping block if he wasn't careful. He wasn't going to back down out of here without a fight. Everyone was going to bring their A-game. He needed to top it. No...he needed to surpass it.

"Alright, demonstration is over. The real thing starts now."


Author's Notes: Here's chapter 3! I hope you guys like it. I did my best to keep the main cast to remain in character as much as possible so I hope they don't come across as OOC.
