It's been five days now since I moved into Akaguros apartment and we have had the best time together. We grew closer and closer every day but today was the day I was to ask him a big question and I had the forms ready.

"Hey uhh... akaguro I was wondering-"

I started hesitantly,

"go on" the man beckoned.

"I was wondering if you could umm, a...adopt me as your own daughter"

I said before I could turn back as I passed the forms to him. I covered my eyes scared for what may come. We sat in silence as he considered signing the papers that I got from Lemillion when I went to work with Akaguro yesterday morning. Five long minutes later he said

"pass me god damn a pen".

My initial reaction was shock so I quickly passed him a pencil.

He signed the papers and told me we can deliver them to Lemillion first thing in the morning tomorrow. I hugged him for the first time in my life. I was the happiest I've ever been and that's saying something.

"Thank you D...dad, I love you"

I say in a nervous voice as I was in some form of shock about the following events.

"I love you too, my little vigilante"

He hugged me back hesitantly and it felt like we were in an embrace for hours as strange as the feeling was. We finally let go and decided we could go out to eat so he put on his casual hero attire even though he hated it and I put on a cuff bracelet to cover my wrist tattoo seeing's If I got caught I'd be in more trouble than Dad. We found somewhere to stop and eat and a group of fan girls saw my dad

"omg it's pro hero blue blood"

one of them said. I stepped towards them and growled

"that's my Dad! give him some fucking space".

"Hey, hey Tsuki calm down geez"

he said comfortingly and gave the girls a wink as he turned around.

"Sorry Dad-" I reply

Later when we got home we both decided we would go to sleep because dad was taking me to Lemillions office for some field work in the kamino ward the next day. We headed to bed after saying good night and we both fell asleep with a smile. I thought back to when I first met Akaguro for the first time, he was cold and intimidating, like he clearly didn't want anyone involved in his life. In the course of a week that all changed we were now a family, the two of us against the world.

"Aghh what the fuck"

I exclaimed loudly as I heard a bullet train go past. It was 6:30 and I got out of bed so I could get ready for the day. Dad and I were helping in a 'crime investigation'. I went to the lounge room and saw dad dressed and ready to go so we had breakfast and headed off.

Akaguro woke up and his first thought was

"holy crap, I have a daughter now-"

He was surprised that the young girl who he had let into his life a week ago was now his 'daughter'. Tsuki had asked him to adopt her just last night and he couldn't believe it for a second, but he thought that it would break the spirits of the troublesome kid if he declined. Akaguro thought that for both himself and the girl some stability as a 'family' might be a good thing so he said yes. As soon as he was in his hero attire which of course you know he hated mostly because it was forced upon him if he wanted to leave prison. If you recalled the incident in Hosu city just a year back then you would understand. Tsuki entered with a smile as she was adjusting her bracelet.

As soon as we knew it we were on the train heading to the suburb where Lemillions office is, I knew why I had to go but at the same time I wanted to draw some chaos. After I sprained my wrist dad made it clear that I needed a break so I didn't have a choice, little did he know I bought a pencil and small drawing book in case there was something I could do. The train pulled to a stop and we got off. Lemillions office was just around the corner so we made it there quite fast. Dad handed the adoption papers to the front desk, and with a nod from the clerk it was official. We were now father and daughter. I let out a squeal of delight as I followed him through the building.

"Hey Blue Blood my main man"

Lemillion said with glee.

"Hello, I'm ready for service today"

dad said which was a lie but I played along,

"great to hear and I see you bought your daughter today"

Lemillion stated. My Dad nodded.

I was on edge the whole time that Lemillion gave a briefing to the heroes on what the port of duty was for the day. I saw my Dad roll his eyes discreetly multiple times but I sat in the corner drawing a grenade just for later. As soon as the meeting was done I had put my symbol on the pin and shut the book as we were heading off now. Dad, Lemillion and I took the same car and there were two other cars in tow. My mind was racing as I sat in the back seat fiddling with my bracelet as I knew that I was a target for the heroes but I tried to keep my cool. Dad had told me that I didn't have to reveal true information about myself such as name and quirk if I didn't want to and he would go with it. I reassured him that it would be fine but I was screaming internally.

We pulled up to the location that we were set to go to and as nervous as I was with this many people, I had an idea that may or may not lead to the discovery of moonlight artist...
