"Sir..."

The man turned his eyes to the girl resting within his home. "What is it?" He watched her hand, watched as she ran her fingers through his sons dual colored hair.

She had been quietly thinking over all that she'd seen upon her waking, and her mind was only now starting to comprehend it all. "What is a Hero's License. ...you mentioned it a few days ago." Truly, she wondered about it and wondered about the man who checked in on her everyday. His son would come in and rest beside her, feeling the comfort her healing fingers provided after his training with his father and pass out.

"...what do you mean?"

"I mean, I don't know what a Hero's License is. I've never seen or heard of Hero's...unless you mean childhood cartoons and whatnot."

"...Hero's are everywhere, girl. I am second only to All Might as far as Hero popularity goes."

"Hero popularity? Is that important for a Hero?" She frowned, "I would thinking saving the world to save it would be all that was necessary for a hero...popularity shouldn't be a Hero's main focus."

"You truly know nothing of a Hero."

Kagome smiled sadly,'perhaps he's right.'She shook her head, "...no...I don't know what it means to be a Hero. I know what it means to be a mother...a sister...a friend...and I know the sacrifices I've made to see to the safety of those who I love or loved. I know that all I've done to keep them safe and happy, I'd do it all again...even if it cost me my life..." she looked down at the boy and leaned forward so that her hair curtained around the child, "...some things are worth it. To live for...and die for...they are worth it."

He left, the girl said something that shouldn't have affected him as much as it had, and he acted the part of a coward and left! Though, he'd told her that he simply had to take care of things, so he kept face...but the girl had basically told him that even his own child she would give her life to protect. He was too strong to need to sacrifice himself for someone, it had never been necessary...but to think about it in such a simple manner. He would give his life to protect his son too...right? Surely it went without say. The boy was his blood, naturally he would keep his protege safe and alive at any and all cost.

Right?

Days passed and Kagome was wandering the halls of the estate she would be residing in until Shoto no longer needed her, or Endeavor saw fit to relieve her of her position as his sons caregiver. Shoto was with his father, no doubt being beaten to metaphysical pulp. The boy was always happy though, when he'd come see her. Ever since his mother had poured the scorching water across his face, ever since she'd healed him and taken from him the pain of that traumatic experience...he would run to her with a smile, and a trusting heart. She had, without knowing anything about him, protected him. He who was his fathers favorite, the prodigy of the family, the perfect balance of fire and ice...his fathers greatest creation...she knew nothing of this, but she knew he was a child, and gave her heart to him as such.

Yes, the rest of that knowledge came later on, and she heard it all, and brushed it aside as not important. His sister could play with their friends, and he couldn't, so...she spent all of his free time with him. They would play, and he would show off his skill with fire and ice, make ice sculptures and do tricks with his flames. He was happy...and Kagome was content. She would be fine...she just wished it was easier to forget about certain things, than it was.

"Kagome!"

She turned and laughed at the mussed hair boy who ran her way, his father behind him. She crouched down and caught him in her arms. Standing, she lifted him up and her hands glowed almost as if and automatic reaction to the boy in her arms. It had truly become second nature to heal, and she felt her body not draining as much as when she'd healed others in the past. "You look like you need a bath, Shoto."

He frowned and looked at his sweaty hands, "can we go for a walk after?"

She nodded her head, "absolutely. I haven't really been outside since...you found me...I don't know where I am, so it would be nice to see the world." There was no explaining to these two that she was from a different world, she wouldn't even try to. Not now, at least. Endeavor wouldn't believe her is she tried to, and Shoto was too young to think her honest with such a tall tale.

"Woman,"

A name she'd come to answer to, turning as Shoto ran all the way to the bathing room, she looked up at Endeavor who, as usual, towered over her much smaller form. "Yes?"

"You've healed up nicely, I want you to undergo training as well, and then get your Hero License. You don't need to be active, necessarily, you simply need one to utilize your Quirk without causing trouble."

'...I can't heal without a license?!' She sighed and laughed dishearteningly before nodding, "I understand...um, will it be you that trains me then?"

"Naturally. You should feel honor, I rarely, if ever, take on pupils."

"Of course." She watched him nod before he turned and left with his flames trailing around him, walking off without another word. She sighed and wondered if this was all really alright. 'No...this is okay. This is my new life. Whatever was down the well, is out of reach now...and that's okay. I'm okay.'
