"Right. The one with the lowest score across all events will be judged hopeless, and expelled."

It had been over five minutes since Aizawa had said that and Percy still had no idea how he could use his power over water to help him. Had they been normal tests he would be fine.

But nooooo.

Percy knew he had a reason for greatly disliking tests.

First up was the running, and most people did that normally. Glasses Guy had absolutely no trouble with that, not with the built in motors in his legs.

Percy was used to endurance running- it was a perk of running to stay alive, and his demigod heritage gave him boosted physical abilities as well- a perk you get in exchange for trying not to die everyday.

Fun.

Percy knew he passed that test okay. He also got to see a range of other powers, how they worked, and if he could mimic or alter them so he could use them.

He couldn't really, for he couldn't manipulate gravity nor could he shoot a laser out of his belly button- not that he wanted to either. He quite happy with his own power set there.

Bakugo he could relate to, for his powers could be used similarly if he concentrated enough. Percy needed to regain his techniques that he'd lost through the age regression, but his main ability was still there. Bakugo used his powers like a geyser made of fire.

Percy felt slightly scared of the guy with multiple limbs during the grip test. Let's just say his score made Percy very disinterested in an arm wrestle with the dude.

There was the standing long jump, which Percy did pretty good in with an extra boost from his demigod enhancements.

He was beginning to feel tired after the side to side stepping, but a quick douse of water had him feeling refreshed.

Eventually it was time for the last test, the ball throw. Percy still had no idea how that would go. His demigod abilities would only get him so far. Nothing like the 705 meters Bakugo had gotten.

No. If he wanted to pass he would need to use his powers. Somehow.

There was one more kid until him, the curly green haired kid. He was sweating and looked nervous as hell. Percy patted the guy on the shoulder as a small comfort.

Percy hadn't seen him use his quirk so far, like himself. He could tell the kid was psyching himself up.

"Midoriya isn't doing so well." Somebody whispered beside him.

"Well duh, he's a quirkless runt." Somebody else said.

Percy pushed the further gossip aside. Midoriya's arm was beginning to glow, a lighting pattern appearing in his arm. He felt the teacher's aura flare darkly and suddenly all power from Midoriya came to a crashing halt.

Woah.

"I 'erased' your quirk." Aizawa spoke. He ran a hand through his hair, slicking it back and his scarf floated off his body in the air.

The move with his hair had Percy sniggering quietly, recalling a movie he'd watched. Let it gooo! He shook his head violently. No need to get ridiculously catchy songs a stuck in his head right now.

"That ridiculous entrance exam... completely irrational when you consider someone like you got in." Percy flinched. Those words were harsh. But Midoriya wasn't focused on that. His eyes looked like they were trying to pop out of their sockets.

"Erase? Those goggles, of course!" He exclaimed. "He's the Erasure Hero, Eraser Head!"

Eraser Head? The name seemed to resonate with everybody but himself.

"I saw it... how you can't control your quirk. You'd just be incapacitated again. Were you hoping someone would step in a help afterwards?" Percy wasn't sure what was going on, the quirk looked pretty cool so far.

"N-no! It's not like that!" The scarf branched out and wrapped around Midoriya, yanking him forwards. Aizawa' hair floated around his head, completely defying gravity.

"Whatever you were planning, it would have inconvenienced those around you." The kid looked mighty upset at his words and those that followed.

He was told to try again, this time he would not be interrupted. Percy could practically see the gears spinning in his mind.

Percy felt Midoriya's power flare up again. This time it was smaller, more concentrated.

He threw the ball.

It sped through the air and out of sight. Percy was impressed. Then he noticed the steaming and bruised finger. Percy was all to accustomed to the sight of broken bones and knew it exactly for what it was. So that's what Aizawa meant.

And now it was his turn.

He still had absolutely no idea how to approach this situation.

"Percy. Your go." Percy took a deep breath and stepped into the circle.

How to use it. How to use it. How to use it.

Unfortunately repeating the mantra in his head did not help him come up with any brilliant ideas.

"Before we start, remind me what your quirk was? Your case is a little different." Aizawa spoke up, jarring Percy's useless thought process.

"Uh, water. I control water." Percy replied. He had to make the ball go far some how.

Far.

Up.

Geyser.

That's it! Percy could use his power like a geyser and push the water forwards with force. It was similar to what the Bakugo kid had done. It would take timing, and it was the first time Percy had tried, but if it succeeded it could be a useful skill in the future.

If he ever got home.

Aizawa nodded for him to start.

Percy took a deep breath and slowly released it. He closed his eyes, concentrating on the world around him. There was still water trapped in the ground.  There was water in the air. Percy focused and pulled it together into his right hand. He kept it steady, feeling the water building up behind the ball.

A little more pressure. A little more pressure...

Now!

Percy flung the ball forwards, a stream of water behind it, glistening in the sun. The geyser had worked. Not as well as he'd hoped, but well enough. Percy hadn't come last in this test, which came as a relief.

When Percy stopped focusing on the water it dropped like rain, sprinkling over a couple of student Los standing nearby.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

For now at least, he was safe.
