Tuesday was alright. As nothing happened while I was at school. Sam was still pissed as he would be for awhile. It wouldn't be until Tuesday afternoon when the video of me saving the girl would go viral and Wednesday for all the trouble to break out. I turned in my assignments and books as well as told my teachers I was moving. I told Scarlet and Zoey that I'd miss them and that I'd FaceTime them and talk to them every day. They told me that they'd come visit over breaks and the summers if they got the chance. Tuesday was a really melancholy day but even in all it's gloominess, it was nothing compared to what Wednesday would hold.
Wednesday started as a regular day except my dms and emails were full with questions from randos and people who I was barely acquainted with, asking if the girl in the video was really me. I just blocked those people since I never talked to them to begin with. All our bags were packed and half our stuff was already there, so I pretty much had nothing to do all day. The new house would be mostly furnished to begin with, but what furniture we were taking had already been shipped. For the most part, my job for the day was stay inside and not answer any questions while my parents were at work and my brother was at school.
I went to go take my dog out for a walk because everything seemed clear at the time. I was heading back to my house when a car came down the street that was following me. I picked my dog up and sprinted back to my house. This may not seem like a feat but my dog is a German Shepard and I have noodles for arms. Anyway we got back inside and I locked the door and went to the back of the house to hide. I thought they were gone but that's when all hell broke loose. There was pounding at the door and our house phone kept ringing off the hook. I kept getting calls on my cellphone which people aren't even supposed to have, unless you give it out. I didn't have any idea who half the people were but I knew some of them. And they were exactly the people my parents were worried about: they were my parents' siblings.
The first person to leave a message on the phone was my dad's sister who was now jealous because I, a quirkless loser, got a quirk while she was stuck quirkless. She was always jealous of my dad because he had one since birth and she didn't have one at all. While my dad has other siblings, they weren't exactly the best either. They tended to feel bad for her because she was quirkless and often took her side. Funny thing is, they never seemed to feel bad for me because like her, I was quirkless. Perhaps they thought I was faking it for attention. I'll never know their reasoning and I honestly don't care to either.
My mom's sister on the other hand, had a quirk but she was jealous because of money. I'm really not sure why, because neither of my parents were pro heroes. Anyway she wanted to get rich and if she found out I had quirks that weren't genetic, then she'd sell me out to villains for money. In fact, she told my parents when I was younger that because I was quirkless, I was worthless and would be better off being sold off to be tested on, in exchange for money. Like my dad's siblings, I don't really know her reasoning and I couldn't care less of whether or not I ever found out.
I soon found out that it was my mom's sister who was banging on the door. The old hag didn't even have the decency to call first but to just go on and try to break my door down. Thankfully my neighbors weren't a fan of the disturbance and called the police who escorted her off the premises. I decided to go to my room to lay down and try to forget about all that was happening, because the next day would be a long one.

Well today was the day we finally left this shit show and I could finally get on with my life.
"You guys ready?" My dad asked. "The car to take us to the airport should be here in 15 minutes."
"Just about," I said as I was putting my dog in her carrier and my cat in hers as well. Thank goodness I was able to take them with me. If I can't make any new friends, at least I'd have my fur kids.
Since we sold our cars, we had to take a cab to the airport. It was not a comfortable ride where we tried to cram a two row SUV with four people, two pets, and a shit load of bags. My dad sat by the driver while my mom, Sam and I were in the back seat. The pets and the bags were in the trunk area. Thankfully I got Patches, my dog, her pill as soon as I did because she was asleep. However we weren't as lucky with the timing with Shadow, my cat, because she meowed most of the ride there.
We got to the airport with plenty of time to have our bags checked and loaded and making sure Patches got loaded as well. Since she was a big dog she had to go with the checked bags. Thankfully by this time Shadows's pill kicked in, because she got to ride in the plane cabin with us. The plane ride to Japan was long, but I knew that it would be well worth the wait to step off the plane and into a world where nobody knew who we were.
