Chapter 13 - Ratata!

Few days has passed ever since the Entrance Exam. During which I had been talking with Toru all day and night, whenever I was free, and even when Izuku was freaking out about his scores, or when Katsuki was asking for a fight.

We talked, and talked, and then goo- wait, this is not R18 I think.

Author, is the story R18?

[Hm... well, there was your friend that died right?] 

Yeah, well, that too. But like, did you make sure to put R18 on the tags?

[Erm... isn't that for when the story has sex scenes only?]

...

[...]

So it is. Anyways.

We did not do what you guys were thinking, we aren't no-label enjoyers here, we wuzz kangz brothers and sisters.

What we did do, was call, video call I guess. Her room was full of cute, girly stuffs. 

Am I actually cooked, chat? Am I what they call a "SIMP"?

...I guess not, I am just a teenager with a raging hormones, I think.

"YOSHIKI!! MAIL!!" a sudden shout rang from the living room, so I instantly sprung from my bed and dashed out.

Once I got there, I saw my parents holding what seemed to be a mail from U.A. 

They looked nervous, which to be honest, is understandable. This simple mail will decide the future of their child.

They put the mail on top of the table as we gathered around, looking at it.

A few moments passed and I decided to tentatively open the mail.

Whiiinnggg

A mechanical sound was heard before a hologram formed around it.

The figure in the hologram was...

(Am I a man, a bear, a dog, or a cat? I am...)

"Ratata!"

"Mom!"

(No, I'm not.)

"Eh, dear, I think it heard you."

(Not really! Hahahaha!)

(Anyways! Yoshiki Hayashi, as per your request, we had decided to grant it, giving a portion of your points towards the girl.)

At this, my parents looked at me skeptically and I just motioned for them to be quiet.

(Are you surprised that it was me who decided to deliver the news to you? You must be, hehe!)

(The reason is simple, I quite liked your performance during the Exam, it was quite the spectacular as to how you managed to manipulate the flow of the Exam. The others might not notice this, but I am different, hence I was also the one to score you. Game recognizes game, or so the humans in the West liked to call it. Therefore, Yoshiki Hayashi, you... failed!)

It felt like the whole world just stopped, my breathing ceased and I felt myself being sucked into a void of nothingness.

("This has to be some kind of joke" that is what you are thinking right now, aren't you? And you are right! You pass with flying colors with a total score of 200! Congratulations!)

(Now-)

Before it could continue, Ma smashed it with her fist.

The mail shrunk on itself and closed. For some time, nobody said anything.

The next I was scooped into a family hug with both parents crying in joy.

After this, we had a satisfying meal, I also turned off my phone so as to not be disturbed with my time with them.

....

At night, I turned my phone on to see lots of missed calls from our GC coming from Izuku, it seemed he had been so excited.

I scrolled and saw a missed call from Toru.

I ignored it and opened our GC first to look at their messages. Bros before- wait, she is not a hoe.

As I opened it, I saw the two were actually arguing. Well, Katsuki was. Apparently he scored 209 while Izuku scored 210.

I did what any good friend would do in this situation and removed the 2 from the GC and blocked them both.

I laughed under my breath and decided to check Toru's messages.

There are so many messages. 

_InvisiGirl: heyyyy omg did you get your mail?

: omg omg omg heyyyy

: are you there?

: heyyyy

: Yoshi-kunnnnn

: Yoshi-kun..?

: hey

: hey

: .

: .

: If you don't chat within 5 minutes, you will die a gruesome death.

: 4 minutes.

: 3.

: 2.

: 1.

: ...

: omgomgomg you are not dead rightttt???

: righttt??

: YOSHI-KUN???!!!

: nooooooooooo

Missed call.

I opened her profile and saw it was pure black. On her story, she posted R.I.P. on it.

'Man, what the fuck.'

Being the good guy that I am, I chatted her. After a few back and forth question of me not being just a thief who stole the phone, I decided to send her a photo of me in my bed. I liked to not wear a top every time I am going to sleep because it is quite nice.

That seemed to shut her up. She was gone for a few minutes. When she came back, I asked for a call but she vehemently refused to saying all kinds of reasons, like her voice was damaged due to all the shouting she did when she was accepted into U.A. I wonder what happened...

Anyways, we talked until late night. We wished each other good night and promised to see each other at the school the first day.

Without nothing to do, I took the mail and decided to finish the contents of it. I fiddled with it, thankfully it is still working.

(-Now that your parents are not here, we can finally talk business.)

My eyes widened, not only did it continue to where it left off, what the Principal said also made me shocked.

He calculated that far?

(I know who you are. Well, not the 'you' that watches this, but the "you" that existed 2 years ago.)

Suddenly, the atmosphere dropped and turned cold. I narrowed my eyes at the hologram.

(Hahaha! Woah, that's scary!)

"Get to the point."

(...I don't really know what you are gonna say but let me guess... "Get to the point" right?)

'This guy is seriously... annoying.' I gritted my teeth. 

(They do say that, haha! Anyways, I am not going to report your vigilante activities to the authority... rather, it is precisely because of it that I approved of your request and even allowed the use of that 'air gun' of yours. You owe me a favor now, basically.)

"Tsk, he knows. How? I was careful..."

(Probably not that careful. Always remember, Yoshiki-kun... if you think you are good, there are always going to be somebody better.) he smiled as he took a sip of tea and placed it back on his table, leaning back on his chair.

"What do you want?"

(Simple, I want you to act as a trump card of the school. Simple as that. I can feel a storm brewing, you see? I need you, Yoshiki-kun to act accordingly in what you think is right. Yes, from this point on, you have my authority to act freely on school grounds. Basically...)

"You want to use me." I said with finality.

(...Yes. That. See, we are not very different, you and I. We both would do whatever it takes for the betterment of the people that we hold dear.)

(So, is it a deal?)

...

(I don't really know but I will take it as a yes. Welcome aboard to U.A. Yoshiki-kun. I expect much from you.)

After that, the mail sparked and exploded on my face.

At this point, I had already lost all my patience but instead of snapping, I just slept.

I am so done. Whatever, I don't care anymore.
