Beyond Ultra (a MHA story)

Chapter 47

Horoki woke up early to go get Eri, who he saw talking to saint underneath the covers. She gasped and pretended to go to sleep. "Eri, I know you were awake." She said. Saint bapped her cheek, she 'woke' up and yawned. "You want some breakfast?" He asked. She nodded and got out of the bed and followed downstairs with Horoki to the table. Horoki cracked some eggs and made some waffles for Eri, who was still relatively tired. "Eat up, a big strong girl like you needs to eat." Horoki said. Eri simply grunted and moaned in a tired tone. "Don't complain, eat up." Horoki said as he handed Eri a plate. She ate and smiled at how good it tasted, quickly eating it. "I'm glad someone liked my cooking. Although you should try Lincoln's, he can make a mean breakfast." Horoki said, he then stood straight. "I complimented Lincoln?" He asked himself, he then looked at Eri. "Hanging around you must be making me soft." Horoki muttered. He then heard a knock on the door and ran over to open it, it was Aizawa, looking tired as usual. "Hey Aizawa." Horoki said. "Hello Horoki. I'm here to pick up Eri." He said. "What time are we training?" Horoki asked as he went to go get Eri. "Today I won't be able to train with you. This will be a solo training session day for you." Aizawa said. "Got it. I won't let you down." Horoki said smiling. Eri ran over to Aizawa and he picked her up. "Try working on your smoke form and do what Mirio suggested." Aizawa said. "Ok." Horoki said. Eri waved goodbye to Saint and Horoki and Horoki closed they door. Horoki spent the rest of the morning practicing his quirk. He grabbed a ball and dropped it into his shadow hands and the ball fell through. Horoki cursed to himself and tried again, not only was he trying to make sure he can grab objects with his smoke form, but he was also trying to extend the usage of his smoke form. After a few minutes, Horoki needed to rest and drank some coffee. Jiro eventually came downstairs and saw Horoki practicing, "hey there handsome." Jiro said, she walked over and kissed his cheek. "Hey there Jiro." Horoki said smiling. "Eri's gone huh?" Jiro asked. "Yeah, but if she needs to be taken care of, I'll gladly help." Horoki said. Jiro hugged Horoki's neck and whispered, "you ready to meet my parents?" She asked. "Of course! I'm ready to make them want me to marry you." Horoki confidently said. "Wow, your confidence has no bounds huh?" Jiro asked as she crossed her arms. "Nope! I can only get even more confident from here!" Horoki said. Jiro smiled at Horoki's enthusiasm and got upstairs to dress up to meet her parents. Horoki put a stop to his training and got dressed to meet with her parents. Horoki dressed in a nice blue buttoned shirt with some tan pants and brown shoes. Horoki put some cologne on and waited for Jiro to come out. She dressed a tiny bit nicer than usual and she was a bit shocked that Horoki cleaned up well. "You look shocked." Horoki asked. Jiro shrugged, "not every day you see your boyfriend dress nicely." Jiro said. Horoki held his arm out and the two went to her parents house, so they may lay judgment on her boyfriend.

Midorya was working out when he got a phone call from Aizawa, he stopped what he was doing and picked up. "Aizawa! How are you?" Midorya asked. "I'm ok, I need to know if you can help me take care of Eri. There's some more stuff that I need to be present for and I can't watch over her. Think you can help me?" Aizawa asked. "I won't be home today, I can ask Jiro. Eri likes her and I'm sure she can help." Midorya said. "Thank you Midorya." Aizawa said as he hung up. Midorya then called up Jiro. Jiro, who was about to enter her house, got the call from Midorya and stopped in her tracks. "Hey, it's Midorya." She said. "Answer, probably something important." Horoki said. Jiro answered the phone, "hey Midorya." She said. "Hi Jiro. I was wondering if you can take care of Eri? Aizawa said he needs to do some things and needs someone to watch over her." Midorya said. "Ummmm I can't really watch over her right now. I'm with Horoki." Jiro said. "Wait, I know someone who can watch over her." Horoki said. Horoki got his phone and called up Lincoln, who looked up. "Howdy! What's up?" Lincoln asked. "So, I want to turn my favor in. Think you can watch Eri?" Horoki asked. "Uhhh, Endillion is making some armor for me so I guess I can watch the little tike." Lincoln said. "Thanks." Horoki said as he hung up. "There we go. We got someone to watch her. Lincoln might need something to help him out." Horoki said. Jiro then told Midorya that she has some movies that she used to watch when she was younger that Lincoln can use to help keep Eri occupied. Midorya thanked her, "I'll get the movies from your room and make sure Lincoln gets them." Midorya said.
