Chapter 2

Kirishima POV:

"Believe me now pretty boy?"

——

"Well I was but just hear me out ok. Aizawa is a good guy, he may seem emotionless and insincere, but he means well. Please just think it over with your- the others"

——

"Wow Kiri you weren't kidding, he's super pretty"

"Shut it Uraraka"

——

"Kirishima your back from scouting already?"

"Yes sir, I found a mer"

"Really? We have a few here already but it's a shock that you found one so quickly. What does he look like?"

"Uhh, blonde, red eyes, and a black tail with orange/gold highlights. Super pretty- wait I mean-"

"Wow Kiri I didn't peg you for that sorta thinking"

"Nononono that's not what I meant-"

"Mhm sure"

"That's enough, thank you for the information, we're heading out tomorrow."

"Yes sir"

Laying back on my bed, letting the past two days conversations flash through my mind. I sigh

"Whoa bro, you good? What's the sighing about?" Tetsu looks at me, his short antennae twitching slightly,

"I'm ok Tetsu, just exhausted." A yawn punctuates my sentence, talk about timing

"Ok man, you've had a rough few days. Maybe after tomorrow you can take a break and destress, you need it." Tetsu suggests, I nod

"Thanks Tetsu, i'll try"

"Go to sleep ok? Night Kiri"

"G'night" only I don't mean it. I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep tonight. This place is a safe haven for people like me, but I can't help but feel on edge. I guess it's to be expected, I've only been here for two weeks now. When you're new they give you a week to get used to the atmosphere, then you get a job assignment based on your species. Pixies, centaurs, and harpies are scouts, which means we look in the surrounding areas for other creatures to bring back to the safe haven. Previously I've been working with Iida for scouting, but my first solo outing I found someone. I sigh again. Looking over at Tetsu I see his chest rise and fall. I stand up and walk over to his bunk,

"Don't worry about me brother, I'll be back before sunrise." I whisper before I lean down to kiss his forehead, his antennae twitching softly. Then I turn around and take off, flying through the massive hallways and courtyard of the stronghold. Damn it's like a giants castle when I'm small. Fluttering through the biggest courtyard I head towards the aquatic zone, heading towards my friends lake.

"Hey Sero, you up?" I whisper, making sure that I'm quiet enough to not wake him up if he is actually sleeping.

"No"

"Really, because I'm pretty sure sleeping people don't respond." I grin, flashing my abnormally sharp teeth.

"Yeah yeah whatever, ya got me. What's up dude? You're normally asleep at this time."

"Iwentonmyfirstsoloscoutingandfoundsomeone."

"Um, dude. I couldn't understand a word you just said." I take a deep breath
