The Silent World

Chapter 13: Looks can be Deceiving

A short year and a half later, Izuku looked nothing like he did before.

His green and black hair flowed to his mid back in waves that anyone could be jealous of. He had a slim figure and if he dressed a certain way, he looked like a girl.

Hitoshi was fluent in sign language and didn't have to rely on anyone to translate for him. He still had his purple hair that seemed to defy the laws of gravity. He trained with Shouta most of the time.

Hitoshi was applying to UA for the hero course. There was no doubt that he would get in. He was skilled in quirkless fighting and was almost a pro in using the capture scarf that Shouta had given him.

Izuku was technically in his third year of high school academically. Penny wasn't as smart as him and was still considered a first year in high school. They still attend Rō gakkō.

It was the day of the recommended students' entry exam to rank them.

Izuku was asked by Nezu to attend to help with the placement. Izuku agreed right away.

He was in his closet picking out clothes for the day. He grabbed some random clothes and put them on quickly.

He somehow grabbed a tank top and jogging pants that Penny had gotten him. Izuku rolled his eyes at the clothes but couldn't help but smile.

Whenever she realized that Izuku looked like a girl with his long hair and ear piercings she had gotten him clothes that would make him look more like a girl.

Izuku didn't care if he looked like a boy or a girl. He had no one to impress with his looks.

As he finished getting ready his room lights flickered off and on.

Izuku looked to the doorway leading into the hall. Shouta stood there in his normal black sweatshirt and jogging pants with his gray capture scarf wrapping around his neck.

"Do you ever get hot wearing that everyday?" Izuku asked, holding in a laugh.

"1. Sometimes 2. Are you ready to go?" Shouta asked him.

"Yeah. I'm ready!" He replied, grabbing a hair tie and placing it on his wrist after he finished signing.

"Let's go."

Izuku followed Shouta out of the house and to the family car.

Hitoshi and Hizashi were having a father son day so they weren't going with them to UA.

Shouta put the radio volume up. He didn't mind how loud it was. He was used to it because of Hizashi's quirk.

Izuku felt the vibrations of the music through the seat. He played with the hair tie on his wrist the whole way to the high school.

Students in middle school uniforms were walking inside the school gates when they pulled in.

As soon as Shouta parked the car, Izuku got out.

"I need to go get a notebook," Izuku signed to Shouta.

"I have an extra in my classroom. I need to go check in with the other teachers. You know the way right?"

Izuku shook his head and started to run into the school building.

The school was empty because of this exam so Izuku didn't have to worry about dodging anyone in the hallway.

Whenever he got to Shouta's classroom there were two people standing in front of the door.

Izuku easily noticed that the taller, older person was none other than pro hero Endeavor. The person with him, he assumed, was the youngest Todoroki; Shoto Todoroki.
