Several years have passed since Flynn Taggart had saved Kyoka Jirou, and since then, Flynn has dedicated himself to becoming a symbol of fear for all villains and fake heroes. Although it has been a little over 4 years since his uprising, very few have seen a silhouette of him. Even fewer have seen him in combat, so he's became a sort of myth/legend of the villain and hero world.

Flynn was sitting in his room in the Fortress of Doom, finishing up an application for U.A., the most prestigious hero college in Japan, as he wanted to at least try and become a legitimate hero. As soon as he finishes the application, he starts to research what kind of tests would be at the exam.

U.A. Staff POV:

It had been a long day for everyone there.
Powerloader, who had just finished up making and fine-tuning all of the robots that are going to be used for the physical portion, was absolutely exhausted.
"Finally.. they're all done.." Powerloader managed to utter out before almost passing out right then and there.
The rest of the staff were in the teachers' lounge, checking the final few applications together with a projector.
"Just one more, and I can sleep.." Underground Pro-Hero Eraserhead had stated.
"C'mon Aizawa~ Don't be that way~.." Pro-Hero Midnight replied in her usual tone.
After they reviewed that last application, Nezu, the principal, was about to turn off the projector when another application had popped up.
"Oh? Well, someone sure got lucky." Nezu says. "Aizawa, could you open that for us?"
Aizawa groaned but double-click on the sudden application. Everyone was momentarily surprised when they saw the heavily scarred face of Flynn.
"Flynn Taggart:
Description: N/A
Age: 19
Height: 6'8
Quirk: Rage Boost
Quirk Description: The angrier the user gets, the stronger he becomes. Drawbacks: User can lose his or her sanity for a short while if the user gets too angry.
High School: Homeschooled" Nezu reads the application and became intrigued. "Aizawa, what do you think?"

"Hmm.. he could have potential given the right training.." Aizawa replied.
"Hmm~ I say we accept it. He looks quite strong, and hot~, " Midnight states, biting her lip.
"Nemuri no. We don't need another lawsuit." Nezu tells her off. Midnight pouts and looks away.
"What about you? All Might?" Nezu asks the giant number 1 hero.
"Like Midnight stated, he looks quite strong and experienced for his age! But we've yet to see his combat abilities!" All Might shouted. Aizawa hit him on the head with a newspaper.
"Too loud.. but All Might is right.. we don't know what he's like.. He could be some wimp with no backbone or potential.. or the complete opposite.." Aizawa spoke.
Nezu smiles, "Well said, Aizawa!" Nezu turns to the small group of teachers and asks, "So should we accept him?"
Everyone looks at each other and nods in approval.

Timeskip 2 weeks to the Entrance Exam:

Flynn is walking inside the gates of U.A. in baggy black joggers and a black tank top. Everyone is either staring or drooling over him except for one familiar looking girl with short purple hair and earphone jacks for earlobes. He notices that she's falling over from tripping over her own feet. Flynn speeds over as a blur and catches her gently.
"Are you okay?" Flynn asks, genuinely concerned.
"H-huh? Y-yeah.." She replies with a forced smile.
Flynn notices the forced smile but decides this is the wrong time to ask about it.
"C-could you let go of me now?" Jirou asks, being a little uncomfortable.
"Huh?" Flynn realized he was still holding her there. "O-oh! Sorry!" He apologizes and helps her up, bowing briefly.
"We should go in now. Wouldn't want to be late to the exam!" Flynn says and walks off into the massive building, Jirou following shortly.

After everyone was seated in the written exam room, a man with a small leather jacket and tall, standing blond hair walked onto the stage.
"HEEELLOOO LITTLE LISTENERS! I, PRESENT MIC WILL BE RUNNING THE WRITTEN PORTION OF THIS EXAM! CAN I GET A YEEEEEAAAAHHHH?" The man, now identified as Present Mic, shouted enthusiasticly.

Flynn decides to humor him,
"Yeah..!" Flynn shouts back at him, being the only one that said it back.
"Thank you, contestant number... 666!" Present Mic clears his throat.
"YOU WILL HAVE 45 MINUTES TO COMPLETE THE TEST PAPER UNDER YOUR DESK! GO AHEAD AND TAKE YOUR PAPERS!" Mic stops, and everyone reaches under their respective desks and puts the paper on their desks.
"ALLLRIGHT LITTLE LISTENERS, YOUR EXAM STAAAAARTS... NOWWW!" Present Mic announces. A big timer appears on the wall behind him, and it starts counting down. Everyone quickly gets to work. Flynn, having a particularly easy time when he notices some spelling and grammar mistakes.
<Mistakes? The most prestigious hero college wouldn't make such mistakes.. Unless.. they're intentional..> Flynn grins and starts perfectly correcting the mistakes while doing extremely well if not perfect on his exam.

5 Minutes Pass

Flynn had stood up and walked up to Present Mic to turn in his paper.
"Need help, little listener?" Mic asks.
"No, I finished." Flynn states. Handing him his paper
"A-are you sure you don't want to double check your answers?" Mic says a little concerned but takes the paper.
Flynn nods and walks back to his seat, putting his head down.
Present Mic looks over Flynns paper, checking it with an answer sheet, and is immediately shocked.
<H-he aced it.. and even fixed Nezu's mistakes...> Mic thinks, briefly glancing up to Flynn and then the time, quickly becoming even more shocked.
<It's only been a little over 5 minutes!?!?> He takes a picture of the paper and sends it to Nezu.

40 Minutes Later

"ALRIGHT LITTLE LISTENERS, YOUR TIME IS UUUUUP! HAND IN YOUR PAPERS AND STANDBY FOR INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PRACTICAL PORTION!" Present Mic announces. Everyone who hasn't turned in their tests walks up and hands them over. Some look confident, and others panicked.

5 Minutes Pass

"ALRIGHT LITTLE LISTENERS, IM GONNA GET STRAIGHT INTO IT. IN THE PRACTICAL PORTION OF THE EXAM YOU WILL BE FIGHTING RRRRROOOOBOTS, WHAT KIND OF ROBOTS? WELL, THERE ARE 3 MAIN TYPES OF ROBOTS YOU WILL BE FIGHTING AGAINST! THE FIRST KIND, AND THE WEAKEST IS THE ONE POINTER, THE SECOND AND A LITTLE TOUGHER TO DEAL WITH IS THE 2 POINTER. NEXT, THE THIRD AND HARDEST ONE OF THESE THREE, THE 3 POINTER! FINALLY, W-" Present Mic gets cut off.
A blue haired boy with glasses stands up, "Excuse me! The pamphlet says that there are 4 types of robots! If this is a mistake on U.A.'s part I am highly disappointed! And YOU!" The boy points at Flynn.
"You were the one that caused that interruption before the written portion! It's obvious you aren't taking this seriously! It would be best if you just leave and let students with real poten-" The boy gets cut off.
"Shut the fuck up.. First off, Present Mic wanted to get us to yell out like that.. Second, what I do with my exam is none of your fucking business.. And third, Present Mic was just about to explain the 4th robot.. if you would have just kept quiet he would've explained.." Flynn says while glaring into the boys soul. The boy just mutters an apology and sits down, embarrassed and ashamed.
"You can continue now, Present Mic, sir.."
"Thank you again, contestant #666!" Mic thanks Flynn,
"AS I WAS GONNA SAY, FINALLY, WE HAVE THE ZERO POINTER! IT'S MORE OF AN OBSTACLE AND ISN'T WORTH ANY POINTS SO IT WOULD BE BEST TO JUST AVOID IT! THAT CONCLUDES THE EXPLANATION! TAKE THE DESIGNATED BUS OVER TO YOUR ASSIGNED CITY!" Present Mic concludes his explanation. Everyone checks the city number that they've been assigned and hop on the busses going to their city.
