shoji didn't believe he would have seen his beloved again
his tears falling in memory of what life's happiness was
the water falling on the floor as flashbacks entered his mind
shoji was working hard alone in his workshop
at that time he was an apprentice, his father, his only family member was in bed, getting sick with every passing day
they had tried everything to heal his ailments, yet nothing worked
and he would soon have to prepare for the upcoming loss
he was so wrapped up in his thoughts that he didn't notice a stranger that had just come into their shop
"excuss me," said a dark yet gentle voice
he looked up to the stranger
but was taken back, a wave of emotions making him stagger back in shock
a boy with a raven head and two piercing red eyes and a long flowing cape along with two long looked in wait
his red orbs meeting his own
"oh..sorry...is there anything I can help you with?" shoji stuttered, shaking his head to get out of his thoughts
"no, I have actually come to offer some of my help to you" his luxurious voice spoke once again
shoji would have stood there in awe of his curiosity didn't get the better of him
"what do you mean, who are you?" shoji asked in confusion and anticipation
"my name is tokoyami fumikage, and I have heard that your fathers have fallen deathly sick, but I come with a solution to help him become well again" tokoyami explained
shoji sighed, he wanted to believe this beautiful healer, but he had given up hope along time ago
"thank you, but there is nothing to do, it is only a matter of minutes before he passes" shoji sighed
but instead of leaving as shoji expected, he felt a hand clasp around one of his own
"do not give up faith, I have been told I have a gift," tokoyami said sweetly, looking up to shoji
shoji wanted to believe, but he was always met with disappointment
"if you could show me to your father, I am sure I can mend your broken faith," tokoyami said
shoji decided that it was worth a shot, it isn't like he could make matters worse
and so shoji showed the raven head to his father's bedside
he had no visible quirk unlike his son, he was quirkless, it was a mother who had passed down the quirk, but she had died during childbirth
he had not been the best father, he gambled and drank, but he was all shoji had, taught him all he needed to be a successful blacksmith
and as he watched the stranger place his hands on the man's chest
his faith and spirit was taken back with surprise as his chest began to glow a brilliant purple
and was taken back once again as the beautiful began to sing, making them glow even brighter
It was enchanting
it was breathtaking
and it was soon done
shoji's father seemed to fly out of bed
