An EraserMic story

Chapter 6

It had been about two weeks since Akemi started school. It had been hard at first, him having a hard time trusting his teachers and fellow classmates and with his additional hearing loss class seemed difficult yet he somehow always kept up with the class. With time, little by little, he got closer with everyone, becoming more involved and making friends along the way.

But today Shōta and Hizashi were taking Akemi to his annual quirk testing. Every child going into school had to get tested, too give the teachers an idea of what the childs strengths and weaknesses are.

So today Shōta and hizashi had scheduled an appointment and they were hurrying to catch the 8:30 am train. On the train they made quiet conversation and played childish games like eye spy, rock, paper, scissors or simply playing with the small toys, Shōta kept in a small bag that held snacks, toys and other necessities for there daily trips through town.

When it was their stop, Shōta collected Akemi's toys and put them in his bag; so he wouldn't lose them, and Hizashi picked Akemi up so he wouldn't get lost in the crowds. They had walked about a half a block before seeing the building.

When they arrived they checked in at the front desk and took a seat waiting for their turn. Akemi had started playing quietly with his toys, when his name was called.

They had fallowed a nurse into a room where she measured Akemi's height and weight, then she took them to another room, where they waited for the doctor.

There was a small knock on the door before a women with blue hair and white lab coat came in. "Hello," She said kindly  "You must be Akemi, I'm Doctor Mo." Akemi waved shyly with a faint 'Hi'.

  "So, looks like you're here for a check-up and a quirk testing?" She said looking at a clip board on a desk nearby. "Yep!" Hizashi said a bit too loud as always.

"Alright, Akemi hop up on the bed," She said while patting the observation table next to her. He Grabbed his cat plush and went over to the table. He climbed up, elevating himself with his wings.

"Take some deep breaths," She instructed while moving her stethoscope to different spots on his back and chest. "Air pockets, possibly," She mumbled to her self, writing it down on the clip board.

She moved on to looking in his ears with an Otoscope, she checked his ears and took a piece off and looked into his mouth. "Every thing looks good!" she said to Shōta and Hizashi. "All thats left is a Quirk test and you can be on your way."

They had been brought to a big room with a big machine in the middle. It was like a C.A.T scan, but it takes many different tests and an x-ray to get an idea of what quirk you have.

Both Shōta and Hizashi could tell that Akemi was nervous. So they gave him encouraging words, calming him a bit. The scan didn't take that long but when Dr.Mo was looking at the results she looked puzzled.

"Well, the results that came out aren't very surprising. He is part avian as expected, so his body is made a bit different than the regular quirkless human." She said reading off some papers. "His stomach, lungs, and heart are different. His stomach digests quicker, lungs are quite a bit larger than normal, and his heart beats quickly as if going into cardiac arrest, also his bones are hollow with the surrounding bone being a bit thicker than a quirkless human." she paused slightly, catching her breath. "His brain also is more active than the normal five to six year old." Shōta and Hizashi looked at each other in unison, knowing that Akemi was smart but it was strange.

"But there's something I would like you to take a look at aswell," She said pulling up a picture on a computer that was on the desk. "In one of the x-rays there seamed to be some sort of chip or tracker that would be seen in a pet. It was located in the left Temporal lobe and it seems that there was an attempt on the right but seemingly failed."

Shōta and Hizashi were extremely concerned and looked at Akemi, who was playing quietly by himself. "Is there a way to remove it?" Shōta asked. "Well, where its located it would be very risky. Since its located in the Temporal lobe the surgery could cause major damage. There would be a 100 percent of full deafness in his left ear even though he is already 89 percent deaf but there is 20 percent chance of death, but if it's not bothering him right now I would wait till he's older to remove it,"

Shōta and Hizashi were still prosessing what they were just told. "Do you think that's how he became deaf?" Hizashi asked "Possibly, but it seems he was born that way by the way he speaks since he has a thick deaf accent also do you know who put it there in the first place?" She asked.

There was a pause before Shōta spoke up. "No, we only started fostering Akemi eight months ago, and he hasn't shared anything about his past other than it was rough." He glanced at Akemi with a sad smile.

"Well, that should be it then, but if he starts getting headacks come back in just in case." She recommended. They had gathered their things and Akemi waved good by to the doctor and they left.

The walk to the train station had been silent, Shōta and Hizashi had been thinking nonstop about everything that the doctor had said, but their thoughts had been interrupted. "Why are you so quiet?" Akemi asked innocently. "Your lips are always flapping on the train" "It's nothing sweetie, we're just thinking." Shōta said, smiling down at Akemi, who was walking next to him.

"Oh," he said looking down as if embarrassed. They had gotten Ice cream before returning home and putting Akemi down for a quick nap.

As Akemi slept Shōta and Hizashi had really thought about what could have happened to him before they found him and if somthing is going to happen.

I have been thinking(that's never good) do you think i should start an Instagram or Tumblr account for Akemi and them and put artwork and short storys on it, tell me in the comments, and feel free to tell me your thoughts or ideas. And I also apoligize if my account  has been acting up, there were some glitches and some story's disapered from my account, but it's all good now because of a friend who helped me out.
