Long Time No See

Since I had some time to spare after reaching school I thought about taking Hana out for a walk. Since I couldn't come and pick her up at her school as I usually did. So I went to her room in search for her and knocked *Knock* *Knock*

"It's me Hana"

"Come in." As I heard her I opened the door and went inside.

She was sitting at her table and drawing something, so peeked from her shoulder and saw that she was drawing a girl with wings flying through the air, very childishly of course.

Seeing it I smiled a little and asked her "Is that you Hana?"

"Yep. It's me after I get wings like brother." With a cute smile she replied.

Hearing that I just messed up her hair with my hand and said "Come on, let's go for a walk."

"Can we get ice cream?"

"Sure, anything for you."

"Yay... let me change."

So I went outside her room and told mom and dad that we're going out, and they gave me extra money to buy ice cream for them also.

A couple of seconds later Hana came out of her room. Looking at her I said "Alright, let's go."

And we left the house hand in hand.

We walked quite a bit and reached the ice cream shop and brought two ice creams, one strawberry for her and one chocolate for me. Eating the ice cream we continued our walk in the street.

As we were walking Hana spoke to me "Brother, will I ever get a quirk?"

"Of course you will, why did you ask that?"

"Well some of my friends started to avoid me, after knowing I'm quirkless."

"Ah... that's a problem." I thought about my day's at the orphanage where other kids just bullied me for the fun of it.

"I still have two friends, but I'm afraid that they'll leave me too."

"Look here Hana. All the kid's just do that mostly because of their parents. Or bad upbringing, or just pure pride. Whatever it is just avoid them okay, they won't be a good friend to you in the future."

"So?"

"So, wait until you get your quirk, and see whose left as a friend to you, and be his/her best friend for life. Because that kind of friends will be with us even in our down time okay."

"Okay." She looked at me and asked "Did you have someone like that?"

"Umm I had, kinda. But I'm not sure now. He's older than me and we haven't seen each other for almost ten years so I don't think so. But I got mom, dad and you to rely on, right Hana?"

"Yep. And I have brother too."

After walking couple of rounds around the block we started to go back home. On the way we bought a tub of ice cream to eat at home with dad and mom.

----------------------------------------

A fairly tall, pale young man of a slim, somewhat fit build, looking to be in his early twenties. He has white hair with a few red streaks at its crown that spikes upward around his head, hanging low over his eyes, which are thin, turquoise in color standing is standing in front of the Night Bakery with a headset in his ear which is connected to his phone in his pocket.

A couple of seconds later he spoke into the mic of the headphone "Are you sure this is the bakery that she likes?"

{Yes, she's a frequent visitor to this establishment.}

"Who's running this place?"

{An old couple and their kid's. A boy and a girl. The boy is fifteen years old, and the girl is only nine years old this year.}

"Anything on the couple?"

{Just their name and age.}

"Alright" Saying that he cut the call and stood there for a second and entered the bakery.

"Welcome to Night Bakery, what can we get for you?" An old woman asked him.

Looking at the old woman he spoke "I'm here to order for a cake for day."

"What kind of cake do you want?"

"Cheese Cake."

"Alright, do you want to write anything on it?"

"Yeah, it should be this 'Congrats Shoto'."

"That can be done, at which day do you want it?"

"Day after tomorrow?"

"Sure, you can pay half the price now and the balance when you come to take the cake. So the total will be 1800 yen."

"Here you go." He handed out his credit card.

As the old woman was going to take the card, the door bell chimed and a voice of a little girl was heard "Mom, we got ice cream lets eat it."

"Sure honey. Haru please take care of this young man"

"Sure mom." Saying that Haru came to the counter and took the card from the table and swiped it on the machine and typed in the rate and gave it to the young man.

But the man just stood there frozen looking at Haru and said "Haruto?"

"Yep." He replied.

Whe he heard that he spoke "It's me Touya. Don't you remember, from the sekoto peak."

"Yeah.I remember."

"Where were you. I couldn't find you there at all."

"Ah. Well I got adopted by them" pointing at Sho and Hina "So I moved from there."

"Oh man you have no idea, I've been trying to find where you were a lot of time, but I couldn't find anything about you after thag incident."

"Well, I changed my name after all."

"Yeah, so what are you doing now?"

"I'm at U.A in the hero course"

"Cool. My brot.... Wait a minute, that day you said you were quirkless?"

"Late quirk manifestation, at the age of twelve."

"Good for you. So what about you know... "

"I haven't seen them after they left me in the orphanage. But I met with my sister who experienced same thing as me." Pointed at Hana with hit his chin.

Looking at Hana Touya asked "She was also abandoned?"

"Yep. Luckily, mom and dad had kept an eye on them, so as soon as she was in the orphanage, they adopted her too."

"Ah... They're good people huh?"

"Yep. Couldn't ask for better parents. Speaking about that what happened with yours?"

"Ah.That, it's been resolved. Something happened with dad's work, and during his down time he realised what he did wrong and started to change slowly."

"Good for you."

"Yeah. Oh... I almost forgot. I'm a hero now!"

"Really?"

"Yes. ... I'm Blaze"

"So you are Endeavors son?"

"Yep.And you said you are in U.A right?"

"Yeah"

"Then you might have seen my youngest brother. Shoto. Shoto Todoroki."

"Yeah. We're in the same class."

"I know he's cold to other people. But he's warm in his heart."

"Yeah, I can see that"

"How?"

"Well, a brother of yours might be like that right?"

"Yeah totally. So anyways see ya man I've got to go. Hero duty."

"See ya."

"See ya, Haruto."

As he left the bakery Touya called Fuyumi

*Ring... * *Ring.... * A couple of ringing later she picked up and said {Hello}

"Hey, do you know who I met today?"

{Who? }

"Remember that kid I used to talk about?"

{Yeah, the one who talked you out of your stupid quirk training}

"Yeah, him. His name is Haruto."

{.... }

"Hey, Fuyumi, you there?"

{What's his name again?}

"Haruto Kageyama. His parents own the Night Bakery."

{..... } *beeeeeeep*

"Ayish. Connection lost. But whatever, I finally met him. Long time no see friend." He said that looking back at the bakery.
