Saving the Game

First Day: Start!

(S1 E5 - What I Can Do For Now)

My name is Hayashi Kyasupā, and I'm currently standing in the back, listening to Aizawa explain the quirk assessment test. I've avoided all the other students thus far, and intend to keep it that way. Stealth is a golden gift I never take for granted.
Katsuki Bakugo stands in the circle where he's supposed to throw the ball.
Aizawa's still talking, not that I'm listening. Bakugo yells "Die!" as he hurls the ball across the field with an explosion. Not the most comforting thing in a classmate, but whatever. I watch the ball soar overhead in three rings of smoke, before glancing at the distance reader my teacher is holding out.
"All of you need to know your maximum capabilities. It's the most rational way of figuring out your potetional as pro heroes."
..705.2 meters. Wow.

The rest of the students are buzzing in excitement for a moment.
"So this looks fun, huh." Aizawa's words silence the class. "You have three years here to become a hero. You think it's all gonna be games and play time?" He pauses before giving a sinister smile.
"Idiots. Today you'll compete in eight physical tests to gauge your potential. Whoever comes in last has none, and will be expelled immediately."
Crap. Well, I'm sure I won't come in last. Definitely not. Maybe Aoyama?
I doubt he was serious anyways, bluffing to make sure everyone was trying their very hardest.
Well, throwing may not be my strong suit, but some of the other things HAD to be. If we were using our quirks, I would get a good score for sure.

The class goes through their rounds until it's my turn. Not a great score, but the 50-meter dash was next.
I come up to the line and get into position.
Ready.. go.
I glitch across the track, wincing only slightly.
"2.3 seconds!" The machine calls out. Not bad. I had reappeared three times on the ground, ranked fastest. First place. No way I'm not going to make it. I sigh in relief, starting to take mental notes of what I need to work on.
And now, the long jump. Much harder then glitching across the ground, glitching in the air required much more concentration.
I stand at the starting line. Focus.
Focus.
I jump up in the air.. and..
Glitch.

I had glitched out of existence for 0.03 seconds, reappearing right above the end of the pit.
It's painful as I glitch out for another couple moments, clicking a button on the side of my mask. It looks like a gas mask, but it was a little more modified then that. Specifics on that will come later. I breathe for a couple more seconds, and then move on.
I let out a silent little yes before heading back to do the rest of the tasks. I'd already done the two I knew I'd be the best at. Although it hurt, I succeeded.

Now it was time to wait, and analyze my classmates. Bakugou seemed far too full of himself, but he had a good reason. His explosion quirk was a powerful one. I looked at the other students who got here by reccommendation. Todoroki Shoto. Yaoyorozu Momo. They'll be top ten at least, won't they? Right up there with Bakugo.
As for the others.. Kirishima Eijiro seems more of a well rounded guy rather then having a specialty, minus defense. His quirk is hardening, right? Honestly, he's pretty cute.
Not the time. I chastise myself.
Midoriya seems to be inexperienced with his quirk, which was weird since all of us have had our quirks from the age of six.

Speaking of Midoriya, Aizawa's lecturing him about something, erasing his quirk. Why?
I squint to try and read their lips, before getting distracted.
"Hey." Someone nudges me.
It's Kirishima.
"Oh, hi." I respond timidly, turning.
"What's your name? I haven't seen you before. I'm Kirishima Eijiro." He smiles, displaying sharp rows of teeth that are actually rather charming.
"Hayashi Kyasupā, but you can call me Kya."
Suddenly a sound booms from the throwing circle. We both snap to attention. Midoriya had thrown the ball..

705.3 meters. More than Bakugo.
Who didn't seem to like him for some reason.
Seems I should expect the unexpected more often. "Incredible." I mutter to myself, forgetting about Kiri for a moment.
That moment ends soon after they're done, when he taps me on the shoulder again. "Hey, it's nice to meet you H- Kya!"
"Oh. You too, Kirishima." I smile slightly under my mask.
