Warnings: Suicide mention

Enjoy!


Chapter One

Another recreation video of one of Cao Bin's routines found itself posted in the sea of outpouring support. In the weeks following the Chinese figure skater's suicide, such posts were not uncommon. The death of such a beloved figure shocked the entire community to its core. However, amongst all the support given, and all the in memoriams posted, this one was special and held a special weight in many mourner's hearts.

It started with a masked man all in black standing solemnly in the middle of the ice with his head down, only looking up when the music began. The routine turned out to be a medley recreation that started with Cao's less famous routines from his junior days and transitioned its way through his career, ending with his last performance. Throughout the routine the complexity of the composition increased until it matched the peak of Cao's career and ended with his signature move in a quiet finish. It was a beautiful tribute to the course of his career as an athlete and performer, and showed the true admiration the skater had for Cao. It surprised no one that it was Katsudon93 who posted the video.

Katsudon93 was rather well known in the skating community and it made sense that he would post his mourning along with everyone else. While the man behind the mask was a mystery, his talent was well known. This latest post being one of many throughout the years of the channel's existence. Starting with simple videos of a small boy with a simple mask showing his progress in learning his first jumps, to a masked young adult posting tutorials on various figure skating moves and masterful routines, both recreated and original, Katsudon93 had become well known throughout the community and even the general public who were vaguely interested in figure skating.

Those who had followed the channel from its early years had marked him down for the competitive circuit when he became old enough. However, as the time passed no one with Katsudon93's particular flair competed. So, despite not having any official accolades, Katsudon93 gained notoriety and became a cornerstone of figure skating to many amateur, and young up and coming skaters, who grew up watching his videos for inspiration and even guidance. He gave advice freely when asked and seemed to have a kind, if shy, presence when he did take to the occasional vlog. And yet, no one knew who he was or why he chose to remain anonymous, let alone not have any public performances.

However, that would soon change. In the weeks that followed the tragedy of Cao Bin's suicide, the International Skater's Union (ISU) planned an internationally broadcasted charity event and drive, of which the proceeds would go to the International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP). The ISU were pulling anyone and everyone which might help get recognition and donations for the cause up. Headlining the event would be world famous skaters both current and those who coming out of retirement to lend their support. Skaters of all kinds would be there to perform and bring light to the serious issue of suicide and its prevention. And of those number who were slotted to perform, those numbers also included Katsudon93.


A/N: Hello all! I know I have other fics to work on but this one came to me the other day and I wanted to write it. It will actually be multi-chapter. I know, that's a shocker for me but here we are. Anyways, in this universe everyone has a small magic they can do. Basically, like little quirks from My Hero Academia. Other than that everything else should basically be canon except of course Yuuri not going into professional skating (reasons will become obvious later).

I hope you liked it!
