7 Meeting

It's been a year since my sister joined the Kageyama family. Her name is Hana Kageyama. It didn't take as long as it took mine, as with the connection between both of them, they had just filed a complaint and adopted Hana as their daughter.

Other than that, both of them revealed their pasts to me. Both were classmates with Gran Torino, and they were known in the hero society as Shadow King and Shadow Queen. This was their nickname given by the populace too; their hero names were Nightwing and Nyx. They didn't delve into explaining their quirk; they just said Nightwing Sho could phase through things and Nyx Hina could turn invisible. They both worked in the background, like Erasure Head, sniffing out potential threats and finding the villain bases, foiling the plans of new villain groups, and all. They did say that they trained in ninja arts because their powers were suitable for espionage and spying.

After that, things went back to normal, and I decided against going to middle school; instead, I'll be homeschooled like before and keep company with little Hana. We continued our daily lives with the bakery, training, and studying. Mom and dad will tutor me, and I'll tutor Hana; it was fun and all. After injecting myself with the modified Super Soldier serum, my height has increased from four feet two inches to five feet five inches. I grew one foot and four inches in a couple of months, and dad and mom just chalked it up to puberty. I also developed muscles in the right places; I didn't get buff up like Captain America; I was more of a lean muscular type. And thanks to the changes in my body, I now look like a sixteen-year-old boy.

A couple of months later, Touya graduated from the UA; he's known as Blaze now. He's now a hero apprentice under Endeavor. Yeah, a after his punishment, he contemplated the things he had done to his family in the name of reaching the number one spot. After coming out of his two- to three-year suspension, he went back to hero duty more intensely. Now he's trying to be a proper hero who can be included in the top ten. And he did; he took back his number two position with a lot's of hard work, more than he did before, and he is approachable now, that's what the news says. Anyway, next time I see Touya, I need to get injected with the perfected extermis serum. I can't have him burn to death when he awakens his quirk; I can't have the man I saved die just like that.

As I remembered about him, the bakery doorbell chimed and a customer came in. She came straight towards me and asked, "Hi, excuse me. Will you take advance booking for cake?"

"Yes, we do."

"Then what cakes can I order?"

"Here's the list; take your time and select one you want."

"Thanks." After saying that, she started looking through the list of cakes available.

While she was looking through the list, I observed her. She is a young woman of average height with turquoise eyes. She has white hair, flecked with a few noticeable traces of a crimson-like colour, which is mostly shoulder-length aside from the ear-length side bangs she sports and the short clump she leaves hanging down her forehead.

She wears a white dress shirt with a plain grayish peach-colored cardigan, the sleeves worn rolled up to just below her elbows, along with navy blue jeans. She also sports brown dress shoes and a pair of red-framed rectangular glasses.

I knew who she was from my memories, but I had to make sure, because there can be other girls who look like that. So I waited for her to select the cake. After a couple of minutes of looking through the list, she decided and spoke to me, "I'll have a chocolate cake with strawberry toppings with 'Happy Birthday Shoto' on it."

"That can be done. When do you need it?"

"On January 11."

"Alright, anything else?"

"Can I get a cheese cake to eat now?"

"Certainly. Now you'll have to pay 1800 yen for the cheese cake now and for the chocolate cake you have to pay 4000 yen."

"I can pay the 4000 when I come to pick it up right?"

"Yes, you can."

"Then I'll do that. Now here's the 1800 yen for the cheese cake. And thank you."

"You are welcome."

After that I have her the cheese cake and she ate it at the shop and left afterwards, before she left she thanked me for the service.

After she left I cleaned up the table she sat on and went back to the billing counter. Even though the bakery is becoming more famous people coming here is far less than any other place. For now atleast.

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

After leaving the bakery, the girl walked down the street and went on to the nearest bus stop. Reaching there, she started to think about the young man she met at the bakery: 'He has bright blue eyes and long black hair; he was two inches shorter than her, but he was packed with lean muscles, and he had a good figure.' Thinking up to this, she started to blush, so she slapped both her cheeks and said to herself, 'He might be the same age as your second brother Fuyumi; don't think about him like that.'

As soon as the bus reached her destination, she got on and went to her destination, which is the Endeavour Agency, where her father and brother work, more like father owning the agency and brother working under father.
