Hello! Here's a light-hearted chapter to take a break from the seriousness of the past few ones. I hope you continue to enjoy my fanfic!
"Arya?"
Realizing that a hand was being waved in front of her face, Arya quickly blinked away from her daydream.
"Ah, sorry Kagura. Did you say something?"
"No, not really. But…" she trailed off, glancing in the direction Arya had been staring off to "Um… what were you doing just now? Is something wrong?"
"Oh, that." she laughed "No, nothing is wrong, Kagura. I was just wondering about everyone. It's no big deal."
Curious, Kagura urged her to say more with a pleading look, clasping her hands together.
"Seriously, it's not important!" she insisted.
"Pleasseeeee!" Kagura whined.
"Alright already, I'll tell you! I don't know what you are so curious about." said Arya.
With a look of excitement, Kagura leaned in closer to hear every word the empress was about to say.
Sighing, she continued "All I was wondering about were the quirks everyone seems to have."
Leaning back with a confused expression, she asked "Quirks?"
"Yeah, you know, the little flaws they have. Don't tell me you haven't noticed!"
Kagura still had the same quizzical look.
"Well, for starters," Arya began, gesturing to Kagura "You always give yourself a pep talk when fighting Shadows."
Pointing to the others she continued "Tokatti's quirk is that he always adjusts his glasses, Hikari uses his kendama to concentrate, Right is constantly eating, and Mio worries for everyone else."
Nodding her head in understanding, Kagura was soon struck with a brilliant plan.
"But do you know one person who's missing from that list?" she asked with a mischievous grin.
"You mean Akira?"
Quickly pulling her up from table, Kagura dragged Arya by the hand off the train.
Stumbling as they raced through the grass, she called after her "Where are we going?"
"I have something fun planned! Now let's go!" she cheered.
Knocking the door to Akira's train, Kagura quickly dropped off a cardboard box by the steps as she raced back to the bush Arya was crouching behind.
"Can you tell me what exactly is going on?" demanded Arya.
"Shhhh." hushed Kagura placing a finger on her lips. "I'm showing you Akira's quirk." she whispered.
"With a box?"
Shaking her head, Kagura peered through the bush, barely containing her giggles. "Look!"
Sighing, Arya joined with her as they both waited for Akira to step outside.
Wondering as to why anyone would knock at his door, Akira cautiously peeked his head outside. Glancing from side to side, he saw that no one appeared to be around. Confused and just about to go back inside, he noticed the cardboard box with the sign "Open Me" written on the top. Preparing for a surprise attack, he pulled out his Applichanger in hand as he used his foot to nudge the lid open. Eyes widening in shock, silence ensued.
"I don't get it." whispered Arya "This doesn't show anything!"
Kagura tapping her shoulder quickly and pointing widely back at Akira, Arya could see that he had dropped his Applichanger and orange ressha, his mouth open in surprise.
Before she could say anything again, a high pitched squeal echoed in the area. Realizing that the sound came from Akira, both could see that he was on his knees and elbow deep inside the box.
"What did you put in there?" panicked Arya.
Now giggling hysterically on the ground Kagura's only reply was her finger pointing back at Akira. Swiveling her head back in his direction, Arya was shocked at what she saw.
Clawing their way out of the box were none other than kittens! Not only that, but she was surprised to see Akira cuddling with them!
Covering her mouth to stop herself from laughing she exclaimed "Is he crying?"
Yep, Akira was smiling so broadly from joy that he soon began crying as the soft faces of the kittens nuzzled up to him.
"See?" Kagura asked once she stopped laughing "Akira's quirk is kittens!"
