A/N: I just realized I never showed what Ryuzaki's parents look like, so have the picture above. ^^
That's supposed to be a younger Ryuzaki by the way.
FLASHBACK
"Well, what are you gonna be when you grow up, Hotori?" My dad would ask.
"I wanna be a superhero!"
It was the only thing I ever responded with.
...
"Since it was her first time using her quirk and it was sudden, her body wasn't used to the sudden change."
"Tell me, what are your quirk's drawbacks?" My doctor asked.
"I don't really have any besides automatically activating my quirk when I sneeze," My mom responded.
Then he looked at my dad.
"Transforming has never really been easy for me. Last time I checked, I could barely hold it for a couple of seconds," Dad explained to him.
"I see..." the doctor spoke, "Since Hotori seems to have gotten a transformation quirk too, it makes sense it would behave similarly to yours too,"
"Maybe she should avoid using her quirk, at least for now."
After I had used my quirk for the first time, I apparently fainted. I didn't even know I had a "halfway" transformation until later in life. I can barely even remember anything from my full transformation. Then again, I was around five when it happened, so it has been a while.
Mom says that she came into my room after hearing some rumbling and stuff falling off shelves. She came to find a red dragon like creature, maybe about the size of a golden retriever, trashing the room. After a bit of convincing to get it to calm down, it detransformed into me, and I was unconscious.
My parents rushed me to the hospital, not sure what else to do, and I woke up almost two days later.
...
My parents were a bit hesitant about letting me use my quirk again. But being the stubborn child I was, I would try to anyway.
Whether it was me trying to show off my "cool dragon quirk" to my kindergarten classmates, despite failing to, or forcing it through while alone in my bedroom, I tried to use it despite the drawbacks.
But every time I did, my body would feel like I had just ran a mile with no breaks.
"You can't be a hero with a quirk like that!"
"Your quirk would be SOOO much cooler if you could actually use it."
"You can turn into a dragon!? What a shame you can't use it."
Hearing them all say that...
Hearing them say I was supposed to be one thing, but was a complete disapointment for being another...
Made me so angry.
"Hey, Ryuzaki, you wanna be hero right? But heroes need to use quirks to fight bad guys, you can't be one!"
"Don't say that in front of her!"
"But it's true!"
I just wanted to help people with my quirk. I knew it could be useful, but it always seemed like the odds were against me.
