Once upon a time I was a person. I had hopes and dreams. I had fears and shame but then I fell from my body. I can't remember why I fell, all I can remember is the feeling of being lost in an expansive ocean with no senses to guide me. I was suspended but not moving ... or so I thought? I awoke and breathed for the first time and felt every fiber of my being came alive. It was incredible and frightening but I couldn't stay up much longer. I felt a strange but soothing touch cover me in warmth.

My name is Sumire Tani and I'm a reincarnated soul. I apologize dear reader but I don't have a more elegant way of putting it. I remember so much of my first few years of life. I remember how excited my new mommy and papa were to bring me home. The new colors I got over time and falling all over the place trying to use my new legs! I also remember the "dark place" but I try not to. Regardless my life is nice right now and I'm very grateful.

I go to school and we learn about the world around us like new words and being polite. We also learned about these things called quirks that are super powers. I haven't gotten mine yet but that's ok. The other kids at school have gotten theirs like Nanami with her poisonous tears or Sota and his kangaroo jumps. He's so lucky since he can almost always win at jump rope or tag.

"So sumire chan when are you gonna get your quirk? " asked a girl with owlish eyes ," I hope you aren't quirkless."

Er seriously did she have to bring that up now? Snack time is sacred and should not be muddled with worries like my lack of a quirk.

"Ah my mommy said I might be a late bloomer airi chan" I said with a smile biting my tongue

"Oh well I got mine yesterday, see!"

Airi's eye began to glow and look even larger then before ,practically blinding the other students at the table.

"Wow so cool" and "ah shes like a nightlight" the other children exclaimed with interest and awe.

" wow airi chan that's great"! , I said with a close eyed smile. This is so unfair! Even the bug eyed spoiled princess gets a quirk but not me. It's not even that cool ... ok maybe a little but it's still not fair!

"Don't worry, Sumire chan when I become a hero I'll save you. Quirkless losers need all the help they can get."

Oh. No. This . Stupid. Little. Glow. Bug. Didn't.

I gently laid down the crackers in my hand unto the plate and then body slammed the foolish brat. I felt incredible as if I could do any and everything!

"SUMIRE CHAN STOP! NOW!" ,Yelled my poor frightened teacher.

"Oh ... oh I'm sorry" , I said this as I looked around. The furniture in the room was floating. The teachers desk was practically on the ceiling. The bookcases and books scattered in the air. Some of the children floating and crying in fear. One of the few things left alone were my crackers.

Suddenly I felt extremely tired. I needed to sleep. I needed to be buried underneath dozens of blankets and rest. I fell face forward as did everything else in the room. I didn't mind though. I had gotten my quirk and it was all thanks to a glow bug.

My name is Sumire Tani and I'm a reincarnated soul. My quirk is psychokinesis and I am going to go to U.A. High School. I was blessed with kind parents and a great memory. This time I will make sure to remember everything so when I enter the dark space I won't feel lost.
