Going Through the Motions

1

Why? Why must my life be so complicated? Why cant I just live a laid back life? No I must sacrifice my time in life to mend the mistakes of those that have come before me. The regrets that they hold why have they chosen to restore them through me?

These are all thoughts running through Ari's head as she is laying on her bed with her feet sticking out her window. All she wants in a safe job where she doesn't have to worry about lives. Her life others lives it is just too much pressure for the brown haired girl. How is she supposed to sacrifice her life to if she wants to keep it? If she is not fully ready to give her life up for others in an instant how is she supposed to be a hero?

"Ari!" The young girl is snapped out of her thoughts as she is called by her father. She walks out of her room and heads to him slowly but not to slowly to anger him. "Yes father?" "I have connections that have recommended you to UA high school. You will go so you succeed in being a hero." "Yes father." she replies as she walks back to her room more thought clouding her mind on this hot summer day.

She is quiet different from most kids her age because she doesn't want to be a hero. Like at all. All she wants to do is go to a normal college and get a job that pays for a crappy apartment maybe fall and love and have a family and be a house wife is that too simple to ask?

Apparently because her dad has decided to take full control of her life controlling every detail. It makes her quiet annoyed but she doesn't need him to abuse her more than he already does so she complies.

The sad part is having a controlling abusive shitty father isn't even the worst part of her life. It is for sure her mind. The thoughts, emotions, dreams, quirk, everything that involves her mind sucks. And the worst part is her quirk revolves around mind in her fathers eyes. She is forced to study the mind for her quirk manipulation. Her quirk allows her to manipulate anything with a structure. And the mind is very structured. Most of the time her quirk requires a solid object but she can also manipulate minds. She can manipulate feelings, memories, thoughts, anything and she hates it. She doesn't want to interfere with peoples minds it is just rude but her father thinks it is promising so she is required to practice it constantly. She knows for a fact she wouldn't want people snooping through her mind so it makes her feel like she is invading. Which it is and that just makes her feel worse.

"UGGHHHH" the girl complains as she stuffs her face into her pillow. She picks up her phone and starts reading up on the average age for retirement for heros still grasping to the last bit of hope she has to have a normal life. Being a hero scares her more than anything. She without a doubt in top top physical condition by choice for once in her life but is nowhere close to being in the right mental mind set to be a hero. Her priorities are completely wack courtesy of her father. If she was to have things her way she would probably have a normal childhood but her father has messed up her judgment completely. "Why must I go to UA? Why me I am just a girl just an ordinary girl?"
