Eri had been given a important job. She had to pick a helper, go into town. Of course, she picked Karlito. He was her rock. The time that she had sent with him had been so good, that she begged Aizawa to take her back to where Karlito stayed. Mitsuki had been informed of this development. She had said, "Sure, a girl? I would love to adopt a girl! These boys are the death of me! Speaking of them..."

Aizawa had told her about the drama surrounding Karlito and Kacchan. He told it correctly. Mitsuki was crying over her babies by the time that he was done. Mitsuki asked to speak to them. Kacchan was busy, so he told her that he'd talk to the hag when they returned in home in 3 days.

Karlito took the phone and talked. "Hey. No Mom, Kacchan is alright. Yes, I am over the drama. Maybe, I do have someone I like. What, how did you figure that out? Maybe I don't have multiple girls. Who knows? You certainly don't. Love you Mom."

Karlito hung up. Aizawa gave him a funny look. Karlito shrugged it off as he walked out the door. He held hands with Eri as they approached the exit gate. Karlito had been through a lot of things that would affect him the rest of his life. And he wasn't talking about Endeavor.

As they took the long route out, to avoid bullies, Karlito spotted a shadow, it was light, as if an invisible thing was floating. Out of his left far, a shadow popped out of the woods. "I guess you got me." It was the lady who only had on panties when he was in the infirmary. (FYI, Kota will be introduced later. I just thought it would be wack if he didn't get rescued.)

"Hello. My name is Shino. I am Mandalay, the Wild, Wild Pussycats!" Karlito just stared. Eri clapped with a forced smile, like she had endured this pain long before Karlito was born. Karlito frowned. "I thought your name was Yeader?" "Nope, my name is Shino Sosaki! I use that alias to sniff out enemies!" Karlito nodded his head. "Why are you following us?" "Well, Aizawa sent me to be your supervisor. He said he couldn't trust his problem child with not getting in trouble."

"That is flattering. But true." "Then it is decided." Shino walked along side them as they exited the camp and walked the wooden path. Eri walked I the right, Shino in the middle, and Karlito on the left. They walked from the dirt path into town. It took about a hour, and Karlito was content with the silence.

They got to the city and walked into it. Shino suddenly gripped Karlito's hand. Her palm was warm, and sleek. "Steel your will, kid." Ahead was Mineta, Shouji, Satou, Hatsume, Hagukare, Ashido, and... Izuku. Karlito tried to turn around, but Shino squeezed his arm. "There in front of the store we need to go in. Let's just walk and say nothing." Shino led the two, walking in front of them. Eri said nothing, picking up context clues that meant that Karlito and Izuku were no longer boyfriends.

"Excuse me, kiddos, but we need to get by. Could you let us?" Mineta, with his short self, stepped up. Satou was the one who talked. "I'm sorry, but no. You can't get by, old lady. Now go ahead. In sure my uncle doesn't appreciate stragglers." Karlito tried to step forward, but Shino pushed his back. "No need to get angry, now. Let's just pass, shall we?" "No, hag. Get lost."

Karlito went forward, pushing past Shino. "Idiot. You really want to die today." "That's tough words, especially coming from a soft faggot." Karlito sighed. "Still on that, greenie? Tell the group here how you did those crude things with Mineta. Then we'll see who the freak really is."

Eri tugged on Shino's skirt. "What is a faggot?" "Nothing a sweet child like you should be worried about." Satou looked at Karlito. "How did you know about that?" "Just was in the right place, at the right time. Who knew you guys would do it at the pool hall?"

Izuku stepped forward. "I think it would be best for you left."

Karlito gave a sharp look at Izuku. "Shut the hell up taking to me." Izuku looked shock, Karlito never going hat tone of voice with anyone. Karlito really hate this guts now. Karlito looked back at Satou. "Now...let...us... through." His teeth were gritting, and a vien popped on his head.

Eri walked forward and tugged on Karlito's pants leg. "Onee-chan, I'm sure there is another store somewhere. Let's go there." Karlito didn't budge, wanting to take out his anger and frustration on these hateful people.

"Please, onee-chan?"

Karlito looked down at Eri. "Sure, Eri. Let's go find one. Shino?" "Sure." They walked down the path to find another candy shop.


They found one less than a mile away. Karlito spent 9934 yen on Eri for candy. Shino didn't mind, it wasn't her money.

Karlito took Shino and Eri's hand. They walked around the town, collecting everything they needed. Snacks for Kacchan, Gloves for Ochako, A lot of lipid candy for Momo, and a gift for everyone else. Shino even saw a bag that cost 10000 yen. Karlito got it for her. She asked him why. "I have a lot of money saved up from chores. why not spend it on my friends?"

Friends. That word developed Shino fastly. She twisted her brown hair in a bun and continued to wake with them. He had just met her less than 2 weeks ago, and they were already friends? She had never met such an awesome person.

They went to rest outside of a coffee shop. Karlito bought her coffee, and him and Eri slushes. She smiled, tasting her first slushy. "This is great! I've never tasted so much candy and sweets!" Karlito spoke to her in a faraway voice. "Well, little sis, let's make up in lost time, shall we?" He was looking straight at the sky. There was a green banner. Shino grabbed his arm. "Thinking?" "Always." "Of who?" "Not who. What. What we had. How we had it. It was perfect. Why did he give it up for popularity?"

Eri touched his arm to get his attention. "Yes, dear Eri?" "I have advice, if you don't mind." Karlito was a little bit off guard. "Go ahead." "Ok. Just forget about him by focusing on something more important. Like those people who aren't stabbing you spine. Your making them worry. You're not yourself, even after that facade you put up. Your sad. Go have fun."

Shino have Eri a surprised look. "You can say the word 'facade'?"

"Yeah."

Karlito was surprised that it took at six year old to tell him this.


They went home. Karlito put Eri to sleep around 9, after the got back from training. The day after tommorow, they were going home, and back to school. Karlito was glad. This was the suckiest week of his life. Besides, you know, the fucking.

He was walking to the cabin when an arm grabbed him by the shoulder. It pulled him back towards the bushes. Once he was in, he was met with the face of Shino. "Sup, Shino." "Nothing. Wanna go get some TP target practice?" "Hell Yeah."


Karlito and Shino snuck around to the cabin the Mineta was sleeping in. They through the toilet paper all around making a cocoon, wrapping it. The windows were shut, so they had no idea. Shino was having so much fun, she wasn't sure when it happened. She just knew that it happened. Karlito threw the last toilet paper on the roof. Shino was there to pick up the paper bag, so they could go onto the next cabin that Izuku and Shouji and Satou lived at.

She bended over to pick up the bag, and a warm body pressed against her body. Karlito grabbed her body as she straightened up. He was behind her, kissing her. She turned around. Before she could say anything, he kissed her. It was hot, passionate, and great. She got into it quickly, and they were making out in the grass.

Karlito touched her chest lightly as she slipped her tongue into his mouth. She sat on top of him. She gyrated her hips into his pelvis, getting him aroused. "Do you really want to? In the state of Japan, I have to ask you, if we have...sex, will you take your responsibility?" "Of course." "Ok. Also, if we get caught, will you claim responsible? Since your 16 and I'm...20, if you say you didn't consent, I could go to jail for at least 25 years."

"I consent."

He sat up and licked her neck, careful not to leave hickeys. Didn't want to blow her cover. He kissed her collar bone. "Can I take off your shirt?" He asked. "Yes." Karlito pulled up her shirt. He kissed her nipples and licked her breast. They weren't the biggest, but definitely one of the most beautiful he had ever felt.

Mandalay grabbed this arm. "We should stop." "But I don't wanna." "Yes. I don't either. But...how about a compromise?"

"I'm listening."


Karlito walked out the exit with Kacchan. They got on the bus to go back to the school. The school day was almost starting. It was 5 am. Monday morning. They didn't have to attend school, but Karlito wanted to. It didn't hurt that his new science teacher was Mandalay.
