Unpleasant experience

Heading over to a nearby body piercing shop with Himiko and Jin, Yahiko had too repeatedly tell Jin that he was absolutely sure that he wanted this.

"I don't know kid, don't you think you should do this when you're older? You might not be able to get a girlfriend if you look like a walking pin cushion, and what about your stomach? How are you gonna get piercings underneath your ribs and walk off completely fine?"

"I'll be fine, I can just heal myself if anything goes wrong."

"I say we let him."

"See, Himiko agrees with me"

"What!? But Toga-chan, what if h-

It'll be fine. He said he can heal himself so it's fine. Besides, don't you want to see him get hurt? It will make him even more beautiful than he already is!"

Himiko was breathing heavily, she had a huge grin on her face and was blushing like crazy.

'So scary! I just want to hide my face and go home!' Jin thought too himself

When they arrived at he shop, they were greeted by a tall lanky man. He had piercings all over his face, from his lips, to his eyebrows, even his nape wasn't spared. The trio was able too see nipple and belly button piercings through his white t-shirt.

"Hello friends, would you like some piercings or tattoos?"

"I would like some facial and body piercings."

"What about the others?"

"We're just here to make sure he's alright."

"Cool, so what type of piercings do you want?Navel piercing? Septum? How about a labret?"

"I have a body diagram and I marked where I want them, is this acceptable?"

A custom body piercing? Haven't done one of those in awhile. If it's not too dangerous I can try."

Grabbing the diagram and examining it thoroughly, the man frowned a little and said

"I said as long as it's not dangerous I can try to do it, this is very dangerous! How do you expect me to do this without killing you?"

"I can heal myself."

"Good enough for me, I'll have you sign a waiver so you won't sue me in case you die though. How's that sound?"

"I'm fine with it, what do you guys think?"

"A waiver! Shouldn't you tell him to not pierce his body if it's that dangerous?"

"If he wants to do it then let him do it. I got my first piercing when I was seven, it's this one right here if you're curious."

He points to the septum on his nose.

"But these aren't little hunks of metal, they're giant hunks of metal that will be going through his stomach!"

Jin was practically shouting at this point.

'It was nice to see that he's worried about me, I wonder what he's thinking.'

'I swear to god if this brat dies here after making me walk around without my mask, I'll go down to hell and kill him a second time!'(Technically it would be his third time but he doesn't need to know that)

Himiko was strangely quiet for some reason. Yahiko thought that she was also worried about him, but one look at her face says it all.

'Ah, Akatsuki-kun is going to get hurt, which means he's going to start bleeding, which will make him look even hotter! I want to see it! I need to see it!'

Thankfully, nobody here was telepathic.

"So how am I supposed to do this? I can do your ears and chin, but I don't know about your nose and body."

"Just stab me at the right places and we'll be done."

"Okay then, I'll start with your arms. Hold your breath kid, this is gonna hurt."

Looking at the approaching metal rods that were about to pierce his arms, Yahiko couldn't help but think, 'Why did I want to do this again? Oh right, it's because I want to look badass. *Stab* Hm? Ah, he pierced it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Two weeks later)

Laying down on a comfortable bed back at Jin's apartment, Yahiko was sleeping peacefully. Even with multiple metal rods in his body, he didn't look uncomfortable at all.

"Wake up Akatsuki-kun, I have to take you to your swordsmanship classes! C'mon get your ass up so we can go already!" Jin yelled from his room downstairs.

Slowly getting up from his bed, Yahiko starts getting dressed in casual clothing and heads downstairs.

"Look who finally showed up, took you long enough. I made you some cereal but it's probably soggy by now."

"Why would you make me something to eat if I can't eat it?"

"Who said you can't eat it? It still good, here take a bite."

"Why don't eat it? Tell me how it tastes."

"Hell no, how am I supposed to eat that shit!?"

"Exactly."

Once they were done bickering with each other, they went to a large dojo for Yahiko's training.On the inside of the large dojo other people could be seen training, mostly other teenagers. Most of them are quirkless, so they went here to learn how to defend themselves from people with quirks. When Yahiko arrived everyone started staring at him, like he was some sort of zoo animal. It's mostly because he's the fourth person with a quirk that decided to train at this dojo, the other reason was his piercings. Nobody was expecting a young boy covered in strange piercings to come through the door, he even had a strange man with paper bag on his head following him.

"Hello Akatsuki-kun, ready for your training?"

"Yes Shimura sensei. I'm ready for today's spar."

"Good. Unsheathe your wooden sword and try to keep up."

"Start!"

Quickly rushing forward, Yahiko was preparing to slash at the unmoving old man. As he was about to strike, Shimura quickly struck Yahiko's left arm. Stumbling back from the unexpected attack, Yahiko steadied himself and prepared for the onslaught of blows Shimura was about to release on him.

While Yahiko was training everyone stopped to watch him spar with Shimura. They were amazed by the flawless movements the elder had demonstrated, and even more amazed when they saw Yahiko keep up with him. Yahiko was not on the same level with Shimura but he was improving fast, way too fast. Shimura wasn't expecting much from him at first, but the two weeks they spent sparing together quickly changed his mind. Yahiko was soaking up everything Shimura taught him like a sponge.

"Huff huff, You're improving even when we're sparing!? Truly amazing indeed! If you keep this up you might even be able to land a hit on me young Akatsuki."

Dodging to the side, Shimura evades another attack. He counters with his own attack and forces Yahiko to block the heavy blow.

"Shimura sensei, if you keep on talking while we spar, you might end up on your ass if you aren't careful."

Most of the people in the dojo took offense too this,(except for Shimura) they wanted nothing more than to drive the purple eyed boy out of the dojo but Shimura wouldn't allow it.

"Oh? Talking smack now? Is this confidence or arrogance? It's hard to tell with that damn expressionless face of yours."

Quickly backing up and getting in a stance that Yahiko knew all to well, Shimura decides to end the match here. Yahiko on the other hand was preparing to face his inevitable defeat, but he was at least going try to make it through the match without as many bruises from last time.

Dashing forward with incredible speed, Shimura swipes at Yahiko's sword, while Yahiko was able to see the entire attack, he couldn't defend himself against it without breaking his sword.

Easily slicing through the wooden sword with his own, Shimura sheathed his sword and walks over to the orange haired boy that was laying flat on his back with visible bruises on his arms.

"You lasted a few seconds longer than last time, a huge improvement. You would probably move faster if you didn't have all that metal in your arms."

"Shut up."
