Broken Blades
Summary: Hayami Mori is Yuuri Katsuki's cousin. She is the daughter of a successful businessman and Japan's best female figure skater. She gets the best grades and is the Student Council President at her school, but is secretly depressed. Hayami used to skate in competitions but she quit after her mother died, instead continuing her duties as the heiress of her father's company. But things begin to change when Viktor Nikiforov and Yuri Plisetsky come to Hasetsu. YurixOC
Hayami's P.O.V
I watched the clock, ignoring Minako's presence as we waited for my cousin to arrive. His name is Yuuri Katsuki and he competed in the Grand Prix Final for men's figure skating last year. I'll be seeing him in person for the first time in five years. I normally wouldn't do something like this, but Yuuri's always been an exception.
My name is Hayami Mori. I'm the Student Council President of Masuda Academy in Tokyo. My father is Itsuki Mori, he's a businessman who travels all over the world for his company, Mori Enterprises. An electronics industry. I have not seen him in nearly ten years, since my mother had passed away. Last I heard, he was in Paris. I've lived with my paternal aunt, Hiroko, ever since.
Aunt Hiroko's husband, my Uncle Toshiya, owns a hot spring resort known as Yu-topia. It's located in Hasetsu. Despite living there for most of my life, I've taken the metro to school. I never cared for the distance. I wanted to go to the school that both of my parents had attended.
My father had inherited the company after the death of my grandfather before I was born, a few years after he had graduated from the University of Tokyo. He was engaged to my mother at the time.
My mother was an Olympic figure skating medalist. Her name was Yukako Ishikawa, prior to marrying my father. She had taught me to skate as soon as I could walk. We would often visit Aunt Hiroko and Uncle Toshiya when she was still alive. Yuuri and I were inspired by her and we both eventually participated in the junior competitions. After Mom died, I quit competing. Since I am the only heir to Mori Enterprises, I had to give up figure skating and focus on my studies by my father's request. I still skate, but not in front of an audience. Like Yuuri, I often practice at the Ice Castle. I'm not sure if Yuuri, my aunt, uncle, or cousin Mari know. They haven't said anything. It's not exactly a secret, but I haven't really told them either.
"Yuuri!" Minako sang. I looked in her direction to see my cousin standing in front of some posters of himself. He jumped nearly ten feet and spun around to face us. "Why are you skulking around like that?"
"Hey, what are you doing?!" Yuuri whispered, frantically. Honestly, does this woman not see that he doesn't want any attention drawn to him?
"Welcome home after five long years!" Minako cheered, spinning and holding up a welcome sign. I then stepped forward.
"Welcome home, Yuu-chan." I greeted with a barely noticeable smile that I strictly reserve for people I trust.
Yuuri returned a tender smile of his own. "Thanks, Hayami. It's great to see you."
As always, Minako attracted unnecessary attention to us, so Yuuri had to spend almost a half hour greeting fans at the station before we were able to leave. I didn't bring up the Grand Prix and thankfully, neither did Minako. Well, not yet anyway. I wouldn't put it past her to eventually bring it up. I at least understood it to be a sensitive topic for my cousin and I'm positive that he's still upset about it. Vicchan's death hit him pretty hard. He may not have been my dog, but I adored him as much as my own pets.
I have two cats named Natsu and Hime. Each one had been a gift from my parents. My mother gave me Hime for my fifth birthday. She's a Bengal. And I received Natsu, a sphynx, from my father before he left. They both get along fine, both with each other and with Vicchan.
"Alright, you're going to greet everyone in town!" Minako announced, dragging Yuuri by the wrist while I followed behind.
"Isn't there a ballet class you should be teaching or something?" Yuuri asked, nervously. I cut in before the woman could respond.
"I highly doubt that Yuuri has the energy to greet an entire neighborhood, Okukawa-San." I said, icily. "Traveling over a thousand miles overseas is a tiring journey so I believe that it would be in his best interest if he rests."
"But the whole town is-"
She stopped when I continued to glare at her and she relented. Yuuri sent me a grateful look and I gave a nod in acknowledgment.
When we got home, Minako immediately called Aunt Hiroko.
"Hayami, Minako, there you are!" Aunt Hiroko cried, running into the room. "Thank you for going to get him at the station. Yuuri, welcome home!"
"Right, thanks Mom." Yuuri replied.
"It was no trouble, Oba-san." I said, bowing. "I'm sorry to leave so early but I have a lot of work to do."
"Of course, Dear." Aunt Hiroko said, giving an understanding smile. "Don't work too hard, okay?"
I nodded and made my way upstairs. I had paperwork to do for Masuda Academy as the Student Council President and it would take a while for me to finish. I greeted Natsu and Hime when I entered my room. I filled their bowls and took a stack of papers out of my desk. I took a plastic bottle that contained caffeine pills that kept me awake whenever I had a lot of work, usually including homework for the extra courses I'm taking as well as a few honors projects.
By the time I had finished, it was late. But I couldn't bring myself to sleep. Whenever I couldn't sleep, I would go to the Ice Castle to skate until I was tired. I grabbed my ice skates and walked out the door to Ice Castle. I had a key that Yuuko had given to me around my neck. I brought a music player that held many songs I had choreographed myself. The song I skated to was a sad violin and piano piece that I had created after I had lost my mother.
I thought of her as I skated. I poured the ache I felt in my heart into my performance. In the middle of it, I could feel tears running down my face as memories of Mother flashed through my mind. Whenever I skate, I feel close to her again, as if she were skating with me like when I was younger. Skating gives me a sense of peace no amount of excellent grades or family praise ever could. I wanted to skate as much as possible before I have to stop completely and inherit my father's company one day.
When the song came to an end, I immediately removed my skates and walked home. I have school in the morning, so I'll be even busier tomorrow than I was today.
…...
The next morning, I received a text from my friend, Hana, as soon as I got out of the shower. We've known each other since elementary school and she's the Student Council Secretary at Masuda Academy. I nearly dropped the phone when I saw what she had sent me. It was a video. Of me. Skating. Judging by the outfit and lighting, this had been recorded last night. I instantly knew who did this. The Nishigori triplets. Despite my anxiety, I continued to get ready. I knew that today was going to be miserable as soon as I get to school.
I've taken an interest in Yuri On Ice for a while now and I got many ideas for fanfictions for the past two months. I finally decided to post this one since I like to ponder the idea of Yuri Plisetsky being paired with a Kuudere OC. Anyway, let me know what you think so far. Reviews are inspiring to me.
