"speech" 'thoughts'
3 - Is there an End?
'What the fuck' I thought to myself as I eyed the face of the woman that looked at me lovingly. In this situation, others might be confused on what's happening but I'm not, this was a kind of scene familiar to me as I have experienced this once before.
I have been reincarnated.
Again...
Just like when I got hit with that truck, I woke up in the arms of an unfamiliar woman. However unlike my first reincarnation, I knew who the woman holding me was or more like she resembled someone I knew from someone in my past lives, I just didn't know who.
This could just be me overthinking things but my instincts are telling me otherwise, and throughout my journey in my 2nd life; they have never been wrong.
As I was going through my memories in my head to figure out who this woman was, the man with white hair beside her who I assumed to be 'my' father spoke up.
"What do you want to name them my love?" He asked, confirming my assumptions.
I once again started to try and figure out where she was from, but before I could get too lost in my thoughts the woman answered the man's question.
"Nejire Hado and...." The moment she uttered the name of the source of wails I've been ignoring till now, my eyes widened in surprise. A revelation.
I turned my head as much as my fragile bones could to look at the periwinkle haired little girl she was holding in her other arm.
'Nejire Hado....' She was a beloved side character in a popular manga and anime in the world of my 1st life.
'My Hero Academia'
One of my favorite animanga series in my 1st life, and most importantly.
"Hyrus Hado"
I, Hyrus Harber, Hyrus Croxia, and now Hyrus Hado have been reincarnated as the twin brother of my favorite character in My Hero Academia.
~~~~~~3rd person POV~~~~~~
Musutafu, Japan, 7:00pm
3 years later
Somewhere in Musutafu city was a house, a mansion to be exact. The surrounding area of this mansion was seemingly devoid of people with only the singing of the birds to provide some noise in this silent area of Musutafu.
However, to the trained eyes this place is nothing short of a deathtrap for whoever the owner of this mansion had enmities with. Hidden security cameras scattered everywhere within the premises, countless guards and hired professional heroes were all hidden from plain sight. Ready to eliminate any and every threat.
And inside this mansion, a young boy could be seen sleeping on a lavish bed that was clearly too big for someone his age. Suddenly the silence was disturbed as the sound of footsteps could be heard from the outside. The footsteps only got louder and louder until finally the door to the boy's room opened revealing a small young girl with periwinkle hair whose face gleamed with childish enthusiasm.
The little Nejire excitedly ran across the room and struggled to climb up the large bed. When she finally got on top of the bed she wasted no time and quickly jumped on to the poor sleeping boy.
"Wake up! Wake up! It's time for breakfast." Nejire said enthusiastically while pushing the mattress up and down, because if jumping on him didn't wake him up this surely will.
The boy's impassive and peaceful sleeping face turned into a frown at the abrupt arrival of shaking as if an earthquake had struck, his eyes started to flutter open as he was welcomed back into consciousness by his hyper little sister jumping up and down the bed.
~~~~~~1st person POV~~~~~~
I opened my eyes to see my little sister Nejire Hado, excitedly jumping up and down the bed I was sleeping on. As this was a daily occurrence it became something like our routine, unbothered by her shenanigans I greeted her.
"Good morning little Nejire" I said with a smile.
"Good morning big brother Hy!" She greeted me back with a big smile on her face. She resumed jumping up and down before speaking again "Breakfast is ready, and mother said we would get our quirks soon!" she laughed.
"Really? Why don't we go ahead and join them then" I said as I got up from my bed and grabbed her hand to help her safely make it down. Although we were only a few minutes apart in age I was already taller than her by a few inches.
"Let's go!" She said as she dragged me out of my room and down the stairs to our dining room.
It had been exactly 3 years and 9 months since my arrival in this world. I've had a lot of time to ponder about the situation I'm in right now, it seems that I've accepted it way easier and faster than I had thought most likely due to the fact that there is nothing else I can do at the moment. During my 2nd life I've always wondered why I was transmigrated and if I would transmigrate again, yet there was no deity or being present that could answer me.
Countless questions and worries occupied my mind and yet there was nothing I could do to answer them. It was infuriating. Amongst them all, my greatest worry was being unable to join my lovers. If I were to transmigrate again even after this life, one question would cloud my mind to no end.
Is there an End?
Was there truly an end to it all? Would this perpetual loop of endless lives one day cause me to forget everything? Even them? I didn't want that. Even in my 1st life my biggest fear has always been the Unstoppable and Endless. Would my reincarnations be Unstoppable and Endless?
Before I could go further beyond the pit of my own doubts, I was forced out of my own thoughts as a voice called to me across the table.
"Hyrus are you there?" I turned to the source of the voice to see my mother of this life Tsuko Hado looking at me with a worried expression on her face. It seems I have been lost in my own thoughts for more than a little while then.
"Big brother Hy are you okay?" Nejire asked me with a worried expression that resembled our mother's own. The resemblance they had was unearthly.
"Don't worry, I'm doing great I was just wondering what quirks we're going to get" I said with a laugh. Since I had no parents in my 1st life, I quickly got attached to my parents in my 2nd one. They weren't perfect but they always tried their best to make me happy. Although Tsuko and my father Kio Hado had been great parents to me so far, it will take awhile for me to truly accept them.
"Yeah yeah! Mom what quirks do you think we're gonna get?" Nejire being as naive as any other 3 year old child would be quickly went back to her enthusiasm as both of us sat down on our seats to eat.
"Well since both your father and I have energy related quirks, I'm thinking something like energy manipulation" My mother who didn't think a 3 year child could get lost in their own thoughts about something serious quickly moved on and said with a smile.
"That would be so cool!" Nejire said with stars in her eyes as she started doing action poses on the chair and the table.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As I sat on my bed, I thought about what I could do in this world. Everything about my transmigration could be set aside for later, right now I needed to decide what to do about the looming threat that is All for One.
I needed to survive. That was the conclusion I came to in the 3 years I've been in this world. The pendant that was the source of my power in my last life was nowhere to be found, if I had it things would be much simpler. But I had already spent too much time on the ifs, right now it was time to train. My quirk if I get one hasn't awakened yet, so I needed to train my body in preparation.
I usually accompany Tsuko on her periodical jogs so I am already quite fit for my age, however if I am to survive in this world I will need more than just subpar. During my 2nd life my body needed to be strong in order to be able to wield the power within my necklace but I was never a bulky type of build with huge overbearing muscles but instead opting for a more compact and lean build yet still having the definition to be considered muscular.
As for what quirk I'm gonna get, I don't know. I agree with what Tsuko said earlier and that I will get an energy based quirk just like her and Kio. Nejire too, that cute little thing. But just like always in these types of situations, my instincts felt differently which leads me to think my quirk will be something like the power I had in my 2nd life.
Whatever the case is, I can say something for certain. I swear in the name of The Negative, when the time comes to inevitably face my future foes.
I will be ready.
This is it for the 'pilot' chapters of this fanfic, where it's basically just setting up the rest of the story. And I know some of you are gonna ask why he acts like that even though he's an old man mentally, the main reason is because I don't trust myself to write a character that really makes you feel like he's experienced and wise so intead I just came up with some reasons that tie in with the plot and opens up some more options
also if you can't already tell, this story is gonna be pretty slow paced so if you don't like these type of stories, get up on out of here, I don't wanna hear you complaining in the comments.
