In a room with multiple monitors, the UA staff were watching each of the testing sites, silently assessing the potential students. After a few seconds, an unkempt man who looked as if he just wanted to sleep asked a question that caught the others' attention.
"Hey, where'd all the robots go?" He questioned in a bland voice, that wouldn't really sound like a question to someone who didn't know him. This prompted everyone else to follow his gaze to the Site B monitor. What they saw was a crowd of examinees running around like headless chickens, searching for any of the robots they were told about.
"Hmmmm, yes, the only plausible explanation for this is that the robots in site B collectively gained sentience, used scraps from their already fallen brethren to forge themselves each an individual pair of high quality, air fueled jets. They then used these jets to propel themselves to freedom, flying away in the same 'V' formation we commonly see used by geese, at speeds which enabled them to completely escape from our notice." Said a short, biped… Dog? Mouse? Bear? Whatever he was, he was currently nodding to himself with his hand on his chin, seemingly deep in thought.
"...Or, one of the examinees has a quirk that let them disintegrate all the robots at once, Principal Nezu." Said a woman who had long black hair, and a sexually suggestive outfit. She had been watching Site B when the robots had disappeared. She was still quite perplexed about it, one moment, hundreds of robots just ripe for the destroying, when suddenly they seem to phase out of existence.
When she explained this to the others, they quietly accepted it, before someone could ask what they were all thinking. "Well, who did it? And what's their quirk?" asked the scraggly man that first brought attention to the missing robots.
An unhealthy-looking, skinny man with blonde hair at the back took this chance to speak up. "It was that boy in the suit, and his quirk is telekinesis." He said, gesturing to one screen that showed a green haired boy in a suit, looking ashamed, and muttering something under his breath.
"And how do you know that, Toshinori? Also, how does telekinesis even DO something like this?" asked the woman, curious of the background he had with the boy, and of the abilities the boy possessed.
"I met him a few months back while chasing a villain, Midnight. He asked me to sign a notebook he had on him. It was apparently a detailed analysis of his own quirk, like, incredibly detailed. According to that notebook, this isn't even the craziest of the stuff he can do."
Said the man, blood flowing out of his mouth as he finished, but he seemed unfazed by it.
"More importantly," Interrupted in Principal Nezu, grabbing the attention of everyone, "send in the zero-pointer." Several people grew tick marks after hearing that, annoyed at the random change in topic. Toshinori just chuckled a little, and the tired man just sighed. "We can deal with all the other examinees later, I want to see how he reacts to the obstacle. Aizawa, if you would." He said, staring pointedly at the mess of a man with his beady little eyes.
The lanky man, Aizawa, extended an arm to press a button marked 'B'. Mere seconds after he did, a cloud of dust appeared on the monitors for Site B.
"Well, I'm not gonna lie, I'd like to see what he does as well." said Aizawa, red eyes trained on the monitor.
…
Izuku wasn't sure what to do now that he had effectively gained the maximum amount of points he could. He sat there, wondering how him taking all the points for himself would affect the other examinees. He hoped they would still have a chance to get in.
Suddenly, a loud crash brought his attention back to the real world. A cloud of dust had risen above the tall buildings of Site B. Inside, a vague shadow could be made out.
Using his Mind's Eye, Izuku examined whatever had caused the commotion. Iron and Carbon, again. Another robot, but it was way to big. That's when he remembered it, the zero-pointer. He supposed such a giant robot could only be described as an obstacle.
At the robot's feet were countless people, scurrying away from the robot in fear of being squashed like a bug. It was a legitimate concern, given the size of the robot.
Once again utilizing Mind's Eye, Izuku searched through the crowd of people for anyone in need of help. Finding a few, he lifted them up with his telekinesis, and floated them to safety. They had looks of confusion on their faces for awhile after that, but accepted the helping hand of whoever it was that just saved them.
After the area around the massive construct was clear, Izuku decided to get to work. After all, he wore a suit and everything specifically to stand out. Why not stand out just a little more?
He gathered the air around him, funneling it around a singular point. The wind caused by his makeshift tornado would have caused his fedora to fly away if he hadn't secured it in place with a hand.
Next, he needed a primer, something to act as fuel. He could create heat no problem by speeding up molecules, but he wanted more than just heat. Finding the molecules in the air too limited, he did what any self-respecting telekinetic would do. He created some more. Grabbing a random atom with his telekinesis, he sped two of the protons up to extreme speeds. After reaching a sufficient speed, just slightly slower than the speed of light, he guided them towards each other. In an unnoticeable collision, millions of atomic particles flooded the area, some of which hadn't existed since the creation of the universe.
Izuku gathered the particles he wanted to use this particular time. Seven carbon, five hydrogen, three nitrogen, and six oxygen. Structuring the elements in a specific way, he created the chemical compound trinitrotoluene. It's more commonly known as TNT. He didn't create too much, just enough to make this a bit of a show.
He didn't exactly need to create TNT, but again, this is him showcasing his power, making a splash. Placing the newly created TNT in the large tornado, he sped the molecules up just enough to cause the explosion he was looking for.
With a loud, but not deafening, BOOM, the tornado exploded into flames. The tornado sustained the flames within itself using the hydrogen in the air. The, now flaming, tornado started off with a yellow hue. Quickly growing into a blue, the flames caused distortions in the air around the tornado. However, Izuku wanted to go even further, heating up the flames even more.
As the flames turned white, Izuku could really feel the heat. Considering all the people around, he decided to create a barrier, he knew it would be needed soon. He made a dome, about five feet wide, around the tornado and robot telekinetically, then moved all of the hydrogen out of that area. Now any flames would suffocate immediately upon reaching that area.
Finally deciding to just go for it, Izuku caused the flame to burn even hotter. He stared in giddy anticipation at the event that he could only do in extremely small scales before. To see it in such grand size was incredible. As the flames grew hotter, they finally reached the point he was waiting for.
The electrons in the atoms of the fire began to move so fast, that they could temporarily escape from their host atom, creating a plasma.
Now, moving toward the robot, was a massive tornado of plasma. As it made contact with the steel giant, it faced no resistance whatsoever. The robot was evaporated into nothingness before the eyes of the hundreds of aspiring heroes in Site B.
They all gaped in shock at the display of power, something they had never even heard of before. It was an unavoidable result from such an otherworldly view.
Izuku, now finished absolutely demolishing the robot, immediately put a stop to the intense activity going on within the dome he had created. The plasma immediately died, not gradually, mind you, but in less than a second. Along with it, the dome was dropped as well, no longer needed. The tornado stopped as well, putting the streets of Site B in an eerie silence as the commotion was over, and the exam participants attempted to process what they had just seen.
Izuku just smiled at them, his hand leaving the fedora, no longer needing to support it.
One guy in particular had his wits about him enough to say what they were all thinking.
"What the fuck..."
Another chapter!
that whole proton collision thing is from the Large Hadron Collider. It's super interesting, look it up.
Not sure how accurate the whole plasma part is, but whatever.
If you're curious, all the science stuff you see is at least loosely based off real science or theories.
I'd appreciate any reviews.
