Shadow and Wing

Chapter 3: New Skills, Two Quirks

(Age: 6)

     Ever since Aizawa put Isabella into Masegaki Primary School, she has been doing so much better with her words and forming her sentences. Not only is her kid skills getting better for her age, which are kind of late, but her quirks are starting to show. While Isabella was at primary school one day a kid pushed her on the playground thinking it was fun, then stood over her, scaring her. With that fear, her Smokescreen quirk came out when she threw out her hands protecting herself, accidentally hurting the other child. Aizawa was called to explain everything. Isabella's second showed up on the same day. She was with Aizawa at their house while he explains what happened today while her emotions get the better of her and Aizawa tries to stop her. Isabella is still in the stage of wanting to copy her dad so she did what he did, then she ended up erasing his quirk before he could erase hers.

     I take a deep breath as I look out the window of my bedroom. I think about everything that my dad went over with me about my quirks. Thankfully it was the weekend, but I don't have any friends because everyone thinks I'm horrible because of my quirk, and on top of that I don't have anything to do this weekend. Suddenly I hear a knock on my room door. Not turning away from the window I yell, "Come in!"

     Hearing the door open Uncle Hizashi walks in, "Hey my little listener what are you doing up here all alone?"

    I turn around hearing my uncle's voice, "Oh hey Uncle Hizashi. I just don't have anything to do this weekend. I already did my homework. Dad said I have to keep my emotions calm."

    Uncle Hizashi opens his eyes wide, seeming to know exactly what I mean. "So you got your quirk huh?" He then kneels down beside me.

     I nod looking at him, "Yeah, but I also have one like daddy. So, daddy said since I have two quirks that I have to be very careful."

     I see a smile spread on my uncle's face, "That is fantastic! So what ways did he tell you that you can keep your emotions calm? And do you know why you have to stay calm with your emotions?"

     I shrug and shake my head, "I don't know... He wouldn't tell me anything."

    My uncle smiles, "I got an idea that can keep your emotions calm! You can learn how to sing and start doing that!" I look at my uncle's really happy face while saying it.

    I think for a minute about what Uncle Hizashi offered. I then look at him and nod, "Okay, I'll give it a try. I don't want to hurt anyone. I want to be able to control my quirk as much as I can."

    My uncle smiles and gets excited. "That's awesome! Let's start today okay little listener? Your dad got called in for some hero work, which is why I am here to watch you. So, let's do this!"

    I smile back at him, starting to get excited, but not letting my emotions get the better of me, and nods, "Okay let's do this Uncle Hizashi!" I stood up and started to get nervous about my emotions getting the better of me.

    Once my uncle started teaching me the basics for singing like, how to keep the melody, how to read music, and so much other things for singing on the weekends when I had my homework done. I start to feel calmer and calmer as I get better at singing. When I see my uncle come over, even if it is just to talk to my dad about missions or work at the school, I get excited anyways because I know he will come talk to me about practicing and work more on my singing and reading music skills.

    It's the fifth weekend in a row that I have noticed that Mic has been coming over a lot more recently ever since that day I asked him to watch Bella. Even if he comes over just to talk about a mission or to talk about something about work at the school. I never knew why, but I am going to find out why Mic has been coming over, besides helping to take care of her, which I never minded him coming over and him spending time with his niece. But still the amount of times he has been over is a lot more than I can count.
