29: Fate Will Change

Today, you have your first supervised visit with Chisaki.

It's hard to describe exactly how you feel. Naturally, you're excited, because it's been so long since the two of you got to spend time together, and as unhinged as he may be, at the end of the day, he's still your big brother. You love him. And you miss him. You wish the circumstances were different, so that you could be together every day, without having to worry.

But of course, you're also nervous. There's a million ways this could go wrong. Aizawa can cancel Chisaki's Quirk, true, but all it takes is a single moment, just one second, and it's more than enough for Chisaki to wreak havoc in his path. Even Aizawa isn't all-powerful. If he blinks, or worse yet, if his vision is somehow obscured, Chisaki will be free to do as he pleases.

You realize it's a risk. Of course you do. But what's the alternative? Chisaki will never stop hunting you down. He refuses to let go of you, even temporarily. Meeting with him like this should, at the very least, help him calm down a bit. It should help him retain some of his sanity. The only other option would be to get the police and other heroes involved, and that's supposed to be the absolute last resort.

You won't give up on him.

Not unless he leaves you with no other choice.

"Are you ready?" Aizawa asks, pausing in front of the door.

You nod energetically. "Yes. I'm as ready as I'll ever be. I'm looking forward to seeing Kai. I hope this will help him feel a bit better. He... deserves to be happy."

He really does.

Aizawa stares at you for a few moments, then nods. "Alright. In that case, let's go."

It's been a long time since you last stepped foot here, but even after several years, you still remember this place like the back of your hand.

The Shie Hassaikai compound looms just into sight, and standing there, in front of the gated entrance, is Chisaki.

"Kai!"

You cry out to him, eyes bright, grin wide, and voice full of glee. Aizawa tries to protest, and he even reaches out to pull you back, but by that point, you've already jumped right into Chisaki's arms.

Clearly, that was the right move, because he looks absolutely overjoyed.

"[Name]," Chisaki mumbles, hugging you tightly, but with all the gentleness he can muster. He pauses for a moment to lower his mask, which allows you to see the radiant smile on his face. "I missed you. Even though it hasn't been that long since I saw you last. I still missed you... so much."

He goes right back to hugging you, and even though you know you're supposed to keep your guard up, as always, you find yourself sinking into his embrace.

Aizawa steps closer, eyes narrowed. You made sure to tell him ahead of time how Chisaki's Quirk works. He knows that so long as Chisaki's gloves are on, and his hands are covered by fabric, he can't use his powers. Still, that doesn't mean that Aizawa's not on high alert right now. If at any point he gets the sense that something is wrong, he won't hesitate to restrain Chisaki and bring him in to the authorities.

"Let's go," Aizawa gestures. "We're not sticking around here. We're going to a public space, as agreed upon."

"I know. I just wanted to hug Kai for a bit, that's all."

You beam up at Chisaki, who seems to be ignoring Aizawa altogether and staring exclusively in your direction. It's fine, though. You aren't naive enough to hope that the two of them will get along. They don't have to like each other. As long as Chisaki keeps his promise and doesn't hurt anyone, it's already a change for the better.
