Yin hurried out of the side street as she could hear the voices of the restless crowd of people bickering and fighting. Bubbles were popping in the air and chaos ensued in the stands.
Okay so...maybe this isn't a part of the exams. As the robot emptied it's ammo on Alexa, Yin came from behind and did a sliding kick to knock the thing of it's feet.
"Hey are you alright over here?" she smiled and saw the girl turn wide eyed. Almost instinctively, Yin turned around to see the robot aiming at her about to take its shot as
Herito took a clean swipe at the robots arm. It's machinery fell to the ground and it sparked into diffuse mode.
Around them in the crowd, other students seemed to be using quirks to fight each other. Alexa created one huge impenatrable barrier around some of them as they knocked visibly annoyed with getting out. At the same time, The sky started to turn cloudy as
Riku shocked most of the students. He had ran from the stands and could tell something was clearly fishy in the stadium as soon as he saw the large robot appear. Cloud definitely had played his hand in this,
Riku just had a feeling. Light shocks seemed to snap some of the students out of their daze.
Yin saw him running towards their small group, and looked at him in awe as he mouthed instructions to
Alexa to drop her barrier so he could shock the ones struggling as well. As they fainted, he continued on his way to help the rest of the students.
That what it's like to be a second year...? Herito exclaimed, "I'll help you out if you agree to be experimented on" with a creepy grin.
"Uh yeah sure..."Yin said quickly with a weird look. She was too focused on their current situation and clearly wasn't serious.
As she created a rift, she and Herito grabbed the couple of students as Alexa helped pull them through the portal.

Galen, noticed larger shadows forming, and quickly used his ability to incapacitate unaware students, and sneak upon robots and remove their guns. On the side,
Juka was pushing down students, mostly with his fists, as [color=yellow]Jyn[.color] formed his ring shocking them. Both confused by the situation, yelling at the students to get it together. Pro heros came rushing down to join the scene after quelling the incited masses. The physical exams were OVER, a good chunk of the students were safe, but 25 or so of them had to immediately be rushed to Recovery Girl's office.

Markell could see that his time was coming to an end but he got all the emotions he could handle as he escaped, slinking into the darkness, away from the scene, laughing hysterically. Cloud had done his job, and gathered all the information he could from the database. They now knew how to hit every student/pro-hero who worked there and when... If this didn't help propel their position in the league of villains, nothing else would.

Hours later...
"This was too calculated to be a random villain attack.", the principal stated. "I think we ought to forget about allowing the second years go to the provisional license exams tomorrow..."
"I don't agree with you. It is crucial we get more heroes out there. This wasn't the work of just one quirk. It seems like the league might be reforming in this last year or so. We need all the help we can get, especially with my retirement. The villains might think they've done something.", All might was resolute on this but his appearance was scary to say the least. Almost skeletal, he sat in his chair, clothes baggy and ill-fitting.
The principal sighed. All might was probably right, but with the fiasco that was going on...The news reporters would be sure to have a mine field.
"Don't worry. We'll apologize for it but play the situation down. It was a lone villain."
"And how are you going to play down the spectator issue?"
"Not all of them were affected. And they all think it was just a random burst of anger. They'll be fine, and those who aren't....Pro Hero oblivion helped wipe out their memories."
"How could you do that? You might have messed with more than just that memory."
"It's for the greater good and you know that."All Might stood up and took his leave, as the principal got up and turned towards his window, hands behind his back.
Is all this really due to his retirement...?, He shook his head, and tried to shake away the feelings.

[The Next Day]
Written Examinations were starting for the Aspiring Heroes and over at U.A classrooms. As the students took their seats, Thirteen passed them out he recited the rules.
"No cheating, No questions, you've got two hours to take it." He smiled but it wasn't like they could see it.
Yin took her seat in the very back and started bouncing her feet beneath her desk nervously. This written test seemed like it would be more nerve-wracking than the physical exam. She had a hard time trying to explain to her mom to let her continue on after yesterdays fiasco but she did it. Here she was...gone through all of that just to fail the written exam. She sighed, and clicked her pen over and over again.

Meanwhile at a stadium just outside of the city,
The provisional license exam was about to start as the announcer was explaining the rules, (with
Libra, and
Riku among the examinees). Eraserhead had barely allowed Riku to take the exam given his disobeying the rules the day before to help out the aspiring students, but here he was!
Andrew was also taking the provisional license exam but in America where it came with a different set of rules
"The first 100 students to hit six targets will move on to the Second Exam of the Provisional Hero License Exam. Any questions?" As the walls fell, the provisional exam had finally begun.
