Skater Style Scuffle

God, Red hated tests. They were just so goddamn boring to do, and usually pretty easy, he usually winged em and got good enough marks to pass, but DAMN UA makes you do a bunch of tests to get in. It was the basic General Aptitude test or whatever it was first, the same one you did to get into any high school, but after that he had to do a bunch of physical and quirk related tests and answer a bunch of questions too. They almost didnt let him use his skates, til he explained that he has to use em for his quirk to work. Didnt want him to cheat or something, it was weird. Either way, after all that, Red just wanted to find somewhere to relax for a bit, since doing those tests took a bit outta him, considering how hard he tried. They'd given him a drink to try and top him back up, but he needed some goddamn food and fast, he'd kinda skipped breakfast in his excitement and the starvation was starting to get to him. Luckily, there was a a few places to grab a bite to eat around here, and he went to the closest one, a neat little cafe. Since he was starving, he decided to order about 4 Chilli Dogs at once, without looking at the menu, cause that meant it took longer to get food. The guy behind the counter, a man who looked like he'd seen some shit and was emitting pure dad energy, gave him a look that said "Really? Really dude? Ok i guess" as he topped all 4 with extra chilli and handed Red the delicious treats in a bag so he could actually carry them around. He would be regretting eating these later, but damn did they taste good in the moment. He got a milkshake from the place too, he needed something cold to wash the spice away.

Armed with his refreshments, he made his way around the city, just exploring a bit while refuling himself. It was his first time here, and he had a lot of time before he had to leave, so he figured it'd be a good idea to get an idea of where he'd be able to trick a good lay of the land, since if he got....no, when he got in he'd not be completely lost. I could always ask someone to show me around the place.....maybe Yumi?...Nah that'd be weird....maybe once i get in.... He thought to himself. It'd been a couple weeks since she'd saved his ass from the Krew, and he found himself reminiscing about it almost everyday at this point. He'd get bored in class and just start day dreaming about it, smiling to himself a little bit. He'd also die inside a little, due to his mouth running off its limiters in front of Yumi, causing some very dumbass remarks to come outta him. He still needed to pay her back, but the UA test people or whatever they are called kept him away from everyone else, just shoved him into a room for the written test, dragged him to the physical tests as soon as he was done, then promptly told him to fuck off metaphorically, and explained they'd do orientation and all the paper work if he actually passed. He assumed that the place was just really busy right now, since the people with him apologised for apparently leaving his application hanging for month and a half. He didnt mind, the place had just opened up this year, there were bound to be a few kinks in the system.

At this point he'd been walking around for a while, and he only had one chilli dog left. He felt pretty full, but he could probably fit this last one in there somehow, he wasnt gonna waste it. Suddenly, he heard a very familiar voice screech out from behind a corner, and he just groaned. Goddammit, does he gotta follow me everywhere? He complained internally. Luckily, The Ginger Dumbass's attention wasnt fixed on Red right now, for some reason, as he found out when he peeked around the corner. "THE FUCK DID YOU DO, YOU FUCKING LITTLE BRAT? YOU DID SOMETHING DIDNT YOU, YOU BASTARD" Kazuma Screeched at the top of his lungs, his boys flanking some little kid who looked like he was in for a beating. Red cursed internally, he bet these guys had followed him to get payback for the park. They'd been trying everyday since then, with very limited success, since they didnt have their back up. Damn, this was technically his fault....he didnt know if the kid had done anything, he probably had, but still it was his fault the guys were there. They were a bit down the street, so it'd take him a second to get over there.....plus he still had a chilli dog to eat. So he wolfed it down as fast as he could, almost choked, chugged the rest of his milkshake so he could breathe, and dashed down the street on his skates. At this point they'd started beating on the kid, who was defending himself, but he'd need help. So he took a page out of Yumis book,  and jumped up into the air, and delived a punch straight to the closest guys cranium, landing on his feet next to the kid. "Oi, you alright there, mate?" He asked him, before turning to a rather stunned Kazama Koichi and his Krew. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE HUNTER? WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND YOU ALL DAY, THEN THIS KID GOT IN OUR WAY, PIECE OF TRASH." He yelled as hard as he could, probably loud enough to cover multiple city blocks at once. 

"Oh ya know, avoiding you, getting into UA, eating chilli dogs, the usual" He answered, biting off his right glove, shaking his fist, and putting the glove back on, getting ready to kick these guy's ass's for the thousandth time. He didnt notice the chilli dog and milkshake stains stuck on his face at the moment.
