"Put him down." Masaki demanded as the boy pulled Shinigami closer and laughed mockingly. "And why the hell should I, Crusty jr?" He questioned

     Picking up the sick younger brother, Masaki had Yussei pack bags onto the horse they has carry Shinigami. When the sick boy woke up, he was scared cause he recognized that he was no longer in their house. "W-where...?" He asked as he looked to the side to see the unfamiliar face.
"Shi! You're finally awake!" Masaki smiled as he turned his head. "Shinigami, my dear, I am Chisaki Yussei. I am, if you wish for it, your possible fiancé!" Yussei hummed. Shinigami looked down at the horse. "Where are we?" He slightly coughed as Masaki tried to think how to explain it.
"We need to get you to your birth-parents. You're 'illness' is due to a lack of pollen, which one of your parent would produce." Yussei explained as he continued to guide the horse. "That. We've been traveling for 2 kilometers." Masaki smiled. "Does father know!?" He tried to shout before having a coughing attack.
The they stopped and Yussei gave him some water from a gourd they had attached to the horse. "No, he would never let us go, and you know it. Now please try not to scream, you know that hurts your throat." Masaki said as Yussei slowly took away the water.
Shinigami nodded in agreement. They then went back to walking through the path until the moon slowly rose. The group of three didn't travel to far that day, at most, 26 kilometers (16 miles). Masaki pulled out tents and futons for them to sleep along with some onigiri to eat.
Agitation came from the forest nearby which got the two able body boys into a defensive stance. "The hell are you doing with this sick member?" An ashy blonde asked as he held Shinigami by his wrist. This boy's build was muscular and scared, sharp teeth, his eyes a fierce red ready to kill, a pair of antlers and scaled pointed ears with a matching scaled tail either a tuft of black hair on the end. In short, a dragonkin.
"Put him down." Masaki demanded as the boy pulled Shinigami closer and laughed mockingly. "And why the hell should I, Crusty jr?" He questioned
Shinigami was beginning to wake up and look up at the boy. "Besides, what the hell do you, a halfie, and you, snake boy, want with a radiant Nocturn?" He asked as a small growl came out. "He's my baby brother!" Masaki shouted.
"Brother? Is this right, sickie?" He asked Shinigami. "Who...who are you?" He asked. "Oi! I asked you a question!" The ashy blonde hair boy spouted. "So did I." Shinigami coughed.
"Tch, those two old men of mine would be pissed at me if I didn't answer an omegan's question...ugh, I'm Kirishima Zantetsu! The heir to the Tatsu Kingdom throne!" He announced. "Alright, Zantetsu, what do you plan on doing to my baby brother!?" Masaki askes again.
Zantetsu puffed up his chest and shouted. "You are only to address me as, sire! And I plan to...to..." he began before thinking. "You don't know, do you?" Yussei asked.
Blushing out of embarrassment the blonde prince blushed before looking at Shinigami. "I will take him back to my parents to marry him! Thats what! To reclaim my my throne!" He hummed making Yussei angry. "Now hold on! I am his fiancée and he needs to get to his birth parents before he could die!" He hissed.
"Hn, that would be bad..." Zantetsu mumbled. I..I never said I would accept his proposal...and I never said I wanted to marry him either though...I just wanna get better. Shinigami thought as the ashy blonde sat down and shouted. "Fine. But I am coming along so I can make sure that my omega is fine."
"Your omega!?" Yussei questioned stomping over to Zantetsu. Masaki pushed the two away and took his brother away and explained. "He is neither of yours. Shi belongs to Shi." He then lays Shinigami back down. The sick boy nodded before drifting back to sleep.
"I demand to hear your names, ya damn extras!" He shouted. "Can you lower your voice?" Yussei asked making the dragon prince puff.
"My name is Shimura Masaki, my brother's name is Shimura Shinigami, but he likes to go by Shi." Masaki introduced. "And you, snake?"
"I am Chisakai Yussei. And my fa-" Yussei began before being waved off. "Yeah, yeah I don't fucking care of who your father is." Yussei hissed a bit.
        Masaki sighed. "Ok, introductions are over, now, we need to get some rest, alright?" The two nodded their heads in resentment of each other before lying down.

       As the day began, Zantetsu sits up Shinigami, making him wake up. "Morning, omega." He said in a calm tone. "Here. Eat." He said as he handed Shinigami an onigiri.
         Staring at the food, Shinigami attempted to move his arm up again, but it barely rose this time. "I...I can't take it..." he said as tears ran down his face. How can I already be back at square one? Am I still so weak to the point I still need aid? I hate it! I hated it ever since I became bedridden and I hate it now! Why am I so useless? He was thinking as Zantetsu shoved the rice ball in his mouth.
     "Will you shut your muttering! It's annoying!" He exclaimed as Shinigami snapped out of his thoughts. "Sorry..." he replied.
      "It's whatever I guess..." Zantetsu replied and looked and took in all of his features. "Never realized how grey you were. That bad, huh?" He asked making Shinigami nod before coughing. "I barely remember what it was like to run and dance anymore." He admitted.
      "I'm surprised that Chisakai-kun didn't explain." He said as Zantetsu shrugged his shoulders. "Honestly, if I don't like you, I ain't listening to you much. And I don't like him." Shinigami was trying to understand as the ashy blonde asked. "So, you really his fiancé?"
       Shaking his head he hummed. "No, he said he wanted to me because, he's a doctor and I am very sick...I never said that I accepted his proposal." Zantetsu nodded in understanding as he began to eat himself. "I get that. Thats why I left my kingdom to look for a partner! Otherwise I'd have some creep like him spouting the same nonsense!"
          Thinking for a bit, he asked. "How old are you and your brother by the way? Cause ya' seem to have some biggish age gap. In fact, halfie and snake boy seem to be closer in age." Zantetsu asked. "I'm 16, and my brother is 26." Shinigami replied.
"Nnnngh...Shiiii why're talking 'bout my age? It's embarrassing..." Masaki groaned as he rubbed his eyes and yawned. "How old is no eyes over there?" Zantetsu asked, which made the light blue haired male shrug. "Dunno, he never brought it up."
"How old's who now?" Yussei asked as he sat up. "You." Masaki said pointing at him. "Me?" "Yes, you." "Well, I am 28, why?"
"Creep." Zantetsu muttered. "That really is not much older than Masaki." Shinigami hummed.
"Whatever, we need to keep going anyways." Yussei stated as he got up. Zantetsu growled a bit in response as he was picking up Shinigami. "Shi, how are you feeling today?" Masaki asked and Shinigami hid his face in Zantetsu's chest. "He can't lift his arm."
Masaki looked at him heartbroken. "Oh, Shi...I know how important that was to you yesterday..." he said as the younger brother felt ashamed of himself. Coughing he said. "I-I'm sorry to get your hopes up, Masaki."
"Don't be sorry, it's just part of the lack of pollen!" Yussei smiled. "So it is my fault..." Shinigami began to cry more making Masaki and Zantetsu scowl at the doctor. Zantetsu put the split haired boy back on the horse.
"Oi, it ain't your fault that you lack pollen. It's whoever left ya's fault!" Zantetsu said. "He's right, Shi, you are perfectly fine and out of blame. You got excited and that's always gonna be alright." Masaki hummed as he petted his head.
The ashy blonde hesitantly patted Shinigami's head. Yussei glared at Zantetsu before they went back on their journey. Zantetsu stayed by Shinigami talking to him and getting some coughing laughs from him too. Yussei was furious on how quickly they're getting along, on the other spectrum, Masaki loved that his baby brother was socializing with someone new.

Shoto was walking in the palace gardens, before staring at the vacant room that once belonged to his missing child. He wasn't allowed to put any of his and Izuku's daughters in that room, only potential heirs to the throne. Now maids were redecorating the room for the newborn.
Shaking his head, he goes to their shrine and knelt putting his hands together. Please, if my som is alive, please oh please keep him safe and bring him home, spirits. Thats all I ask of you for now. He prayed before looking up and getting up.
"Daddy, whatcha doing?" Asked his youngest daughter. "If I tell you what I told the spirits, it might not come true, Kae." He replied, placing his hand on her head.
        "Ah! That's true! Sorry daddy!" She shouted as she got picked up. "It's alright, Kae." The emperor chuckled. "Is mommy awake yet to take over?" He asked.
      "Yeah! That's why I was looking for you!" She smiled before yawning. "It looks like someone needs some sleep herself." Shoto joked as she rested her head on his shoulder. "Let's go to bed then." He hummed as they left the shrine.
