Fuyumi's POV:

I was getting a ride from Grandma from my ballet lesson, I just pray that Touya-nii and Sho haven't destroyed the house when I was gone.

Up in the distance I saw smoke. That can't be good. I just hoped that that Touya was help Shoto get some more control over his fire, or that the two were just having a campfire in the backyard. Or maybe I'm worrying too much... I thought, still not convinced.

Nope, I heard sirens and saw firemen, police officers and Pro Heros left and right. What stupid stunt have those two pulled off?

"I wonder what's going on over there..." I heard Grandmother say, keeping her eyes glued to the road.

"Yea.." I said distantly. I placed my hands together and prayed that my brothers were okay. We arrived outside our house to see blue flames everywhere. Well, mainly in one part of the house. That's where Shoto and Touya's rooms are! I'm desprate now. 

"Where do you think you're going young lady?-" Grandma protested but it was too late, I jumped out of her car only to find a Pro Hero holding me so I couldn't go any further.

"What do you think you're doing Problem Child?!" The hero said. I looked up to see a man in his early 20's with long black hair, a weird scarf and yellow google/sun glasses on. 

"Please! I need to see if they're okay!" I pleaded, trying to get out of his grasp, "My brothers are in there! Please!"

He looked down on me with a sympathetic look, "Sorry kid. We'll try our best," was all he said. 

I was so angry, and sad. I cried, I cried and I cried and I cried for around 15 minutes. At this point Nastuo was also home and we held onto each other, praying for the safety of our brothers. Finally all the flames died out and we saw two poilce men talking to a few firefighters and that Pro Hero who stopped me earlier. 

Eventually that Pro Hero and a detective walked over to us. "I'm sorry," said the detective, who I reconised as Detective Tsukauchi, "But we found no bodies.." 

I felt Nastuo's rage, but I quickly tried to calm him down. "Please Nat, don't make things worse than it should be," 

I saw that he calmed down a bit, but it was obvious that he was still mad. "Come on Yumi, lets see what survived in the house,"

The detective gave us permission, and we entered our house, half of which were in ruins. Since we were the kids of the No.2 Hero, the hero with the scarf, whose name was Eraser Head, allowed us to stay at his house while Father did all his Hero work.

Nastuo and I headed up to our rooms, which were untouched by the flames. Blue flames, I thought suspiciously, Like Touya's... what happened tonight?

I walked into my room to start packing, and I saw a letter on my desk. That's a little odd. I went to pick to up and the envolope said:
𝒯𝑜 𝐹𝓊𝓎𝓊𝓂𝒾 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒩𝒶𝓈𝓉𝓊𝑜

Curious, I opened the letter and gasped, "Natsuo!" I called, "You better come see this!"

Around 2 seconds later, Nat was in my room with a panicked expression, "Fuyu, are you okay? What happened?"

"Come look at this," I passed him the letter. Looking skeptical, Nastuo opened the letter and gasped.

"They're alive?!" Nat whispered-shouted to me.

I nodded my head vigorously. "Yes, Nastuo! They're alive!" 

We were so excited, then Eraser Head walked in. "Are you two, uh... okay?" he asked confused. I mean, would be too if I found two kids dancing after their brother's 'deaths.'

"We're fine..." I told him, hiding the letter in my pocket. 

"Okay then, if you're sure," he said doubtfully, "Anyway, are you two finished packing? Tomorrow you guys need to go to the poilce station to answer some questions." he told us. 

"I'm all done," Nastuo told him while I shook my head. "I just need a couple of more minutes," I said.

Eraser Head nodded, "Okay when you're done come meet me and your brother outside. We'll then go to my house," 

I watched them leave my room, my hand still clutching Touya's letter.
