Quite A Shiny Day

"For now take a look around the forest for your training but don't get too far you might lose your way" the old woman requested to Tokoyami

"I shall proceed with caution" Tokoyami answered

A moments passed after Tokoyami wandered around the forest. He heard a voice of a girl that calls him, "hey, you new here?"

a skinny girl with a white hair, jumps down from a tree as she catches Tokoyami's attention

"I assume your the girl yesterday" Tokoyami replied

"you noticed me hiding there huh, impressive hehe" the girl said

"And what should I call you?" Tokoyami asked

the girl grins and said, "I am the one who walks to the path of light, I am the one feared by men, I who purifies the darkness, I am SOL!"

"Isn't that a mytholigical god" Tokoyami replied

Sol became nervous and loses composure, "No..." she said

"Are you perhaps a chuuni?" Tokoyami asked

context: a chuuni is some kind of mentality or concept that comes in a lot of ways, one of those is when someone fantasizes about his model character and tries imitating it as a form of his/her identity

the girl sighed with regrets and said "well you got me, I still prefer to be called Sol. so how about I tour you around, I'm quite familiar of this place"

the both of them travel around the forest. they went to a river where they found a lot of fish. they observed a white beetle as it flies tree by tree. they went to a cave where they found a sleeping bear. they slowly sneak and observed the bear closer.

"these kinds of bear sleeps for a long time after a full meal" Tokoyami whispered in order to not disturb the bear

"dont tell me your afraid of bears?" Sol said. then a flash of light began to swallow the cave surroundings, "How was my quirk, pretty cool huh!" she said

"you idiot! you might have woken the bear" Tokoyami angrily replied

"I'm not so coward to fear a bear hehehe" Sol said. She then notices the bear in front of her angrily tries to attack while she immediately quivers in fear

"Dark Shadow, grab hold of her!" Tokoyami said after releasing his quirk. Dark Shadow pushes the bear aside and grabs Sol. "to think a sun god piss her pants to a mere mammal" he said

"stop saying that" as Sol regain her composure

The both of them ran towards the exit full of bruises, happily satisfied while they catch their breathes

"So your quirk is a dark like being huh?" Sol asked

"Yes, I named it dark shadow, pretty cool even for a chuuni like you" Tokoyami boastly replied

"From the looks of it youre kind of a chuuni youreself" Sol said

"How dare you" Tokoyami answered with convictions

Sol breathes and said, "well then it is I, the great Sol shall banish darkness along with your existe-"

"so your quirk lets you produce any form of light?" Tokoyami interrupted

"Yes I can cover my whole body with any form of light pretty handy for a quirk huh.....wait, stop interupting my monologue" Sol replied

"Same time tomorrow, see you" Tokoyami said as he heads back to the inn

Sol angrily grins as Tokoyami runs away from her speech

At the house dinner. "You seem pretty worn out not to mention your bruise and dirty clothes" the old woman said

Tokoyami stops and swallows his food and said, "I take my training very seriously"

"Hmm, well for your first task, why dont clean the whole house tomorrow. I am going to go buy food in the town tomorrow so make it tidy when I come back" the old woman said

After having dinner Tokoyami went to his room and lie awake in bed

"that girl seems to caught your interest" Dark Shadow telepathically said to Tokoyami

"Her quirk is an excellent counter to you. A great ally to have" Tokoyami answered.

"You just want play around don't you, this whole training scheme of yours is a perfect excuse for slacking as well" Dark Shadow teased

"So it seems" Tokoyami replied as he fells asleep

A while passed and Tokoyami wakes up floating in dark place with nothing to wander

He analyzes the situation and said, "this must be a dream"

Then something in the abyss answered with

a strong and immense aura as a red eyes begin to look intently to Tokoyami

Tokoyami stared back, as the presence comes near. And everything fades to black
