Memories have strange and unknown origins sometimes. One minute you'll remember something completely pointless and irrelevant to whatever it was you were doing beforehand, then you'll get distinct descriptions from your brain about something you saw or heard as a young child the next, this happens to me more often than not, whether I liked it or not. No matter how I thought about it, it always came back to me with the same results, A girl, the color green, and resemblance to a part of Japan, although I can't remember exactly where.

I've been told that I was in Japan for about a year with my father, but that was when I was about 4 or 5, so I can't pick up a trace of what exactly happened during my stay there, but I'm sure it must've been a wonderful place for someone like me at the time.

For the about two years now, I've been curious to what these messages and images in my brain meant, and now I believe I might get my chance. "Come again Mom? I just want to make sure I heard you correctly." I hesitated towards my mother, Amber Dillard.

She sighs, then begins to repeat what she said. "What I said is that a school in Japan is interested in your quirk. You have wanted to go there for a while now ever since I told you, haven't you?"

"Yeah, I just wasn't expecting it to be this soon. I just thought it wouldn't be for a good couple of years until I became a hero myself. I barely had the opportunity to practice my power outside of school, and to be completely honest, I had a different reason for going there in the first place."

"Oh? And what would that be?" She asked. I didn't want to tell her cause she'd tell me who that girl was instantly. I know it sounds like a stupid reason for avoiding a question, but I feel like it would be better if I found out by surprise.

"Well...I want to check out the outstanding landmarks, I hear they're one of the best in the world." I fibbed.

For the next few weeks, My family did what they could to make whatever funds possible in order for me to attend at this school, apparently it's simply called "U.A Academy," for all I know, it could be a school specialized for the quirks able to fight crime, or it could just be another institution that experiments on individual quirks as well as regular school activities like Homecoming and such. Either way, I was going to go back to Japan.

After the past month, My mom made enough money for me, her, and my brother, Jayden, to make it to the other side of the world, we then said our goodbyes to our friends, coworkers and bosses. Once that past, we were finally ready to make our new lives a reality and started to pack our belongings, we arrived at the airport and started looking for our flight. While we were walking, I got curious and asked Mom "What part of Japan are we going to anyway?"

"Musutafu, Japan. Ironically, it was the same place we lived in before we came back to America. Who knows, maybe we'll find our old place along the way." She pondered. It's a nice thought but I wouldn't count on it personally, it's been so long that it could have possibly been demolished by a demolition crew or something.
