"HIS BIG SISTER KNOWS SOMETHING"
Still 16 years old
"Congratulations on winning Yuuei's sports festival, Young Genji"
Akasuki smiles sheepishly at the praise and waves her hand dismissively, "Call me Akachan", she insists on the blonde skeleton man in front of her, "And thank you. It was a rough competition"
Yuuei's sports festival happened about a week after her latest mission which the redhead was forever thankful that all she got was scratches and bruises.
It took about two days of recuperation before she went back to training along with her classmates for the upcoming big event.
She, herself, was surprised that she managed to win first place. Guess Sir Nighteye was a miracle worker after all.
And here she is four days later, at the nearby beach with the two boys for her first meeting with the Number One hero.
He introduces himself as Yagi Toshinori since she wasn't supposed to know who he is- technically.
"I apologize for delaying our meeting", the redhead continues, "There was this big mission I got and before I knew it, the time for the sports festival arrived so I-"
"-There's nothing to apologize for", Yagi cuts her off with a smile, "From what I heard, you want to talk about their training regime yes?"
The redhead turns to look at the boys with a raised eyebrow, earning a sheepish smile from the green-haired and a grunt from the ash-blonde.
She looked back at the blonde hero and nods, "It's nothing big, honestly", she assured him, "I just want to have some days to spar with them to check their progress"
"It's one of the things we do together. I hope it isn't a problem...?"
Yagi let out a chuckle as he shook his head, "It's the opposite, Young Genji", he responded with a smile, "I believe it'll be beneficial to have a hero-in-training spar with them. I'll make sure to adjust their schedule"
The redhead let out a sigh in relief at his response.
You must be wondering, why isn't she fangirling right now?
Oh, she is deep inside. She'll just release the full fangirl session later inside her room.
It took half an hour before the redhead was satisfied and left the three males with a cheery wave.
"Y-You don't think she found out, right?", Izuku asked nervously at the ash-blonde male standing beside him as he continues to wave goodbye at his big sister.
Katsuki let out a snort, "Stop talking about shit, nerd", he responded snarkily as he glares at the silhouette of the redhead girl, his hands tucked in his jeans pockets.
"Do you think she's stupid? It's obvious she knows some shit"
The green-haired boy and the blonde skeleton, who stood behind the two boys, sweat nervously at that statement.
The ash-blonde's mouth twitches as he thought, 'That damn ginger might be playing dumb for all I know'
Honestly, he doesn't see the point of hiding it from the redhead girl since her quirk is basically all about information gathering.
Not to mention she's really clingy and pushy when she wants to, especially to the two boys.
But today, she isn't that clingy which means one thing.
That ginger definitely knows something.
"I'm surprised you want to intern here for a week, Akachan"
Akasuki grins cheekily at her Uncle Kazuhiko, "Sir Nighteye actually recommended me to 'widen my perspective' or so he says", she replied.
"So I figured- why not try interning at our hospital? There's a lot of new things I haven't tried nor learn in this side of the family"
"It's not on the matter of trying", Kazuhiko Fujitani responded dryly, "It's the fact that you'll make a terrible doctor"
Akasuki pouted at her uncle's statement.
The two are walking towards the eastward of the Fujitani Hospital, where most medical interns are stationed.
Not long ago, Sir Nigtheye confronted the redhead girl that since she has been interning, or doing work-study, at the Nighteye Agency for the past year- she has his permission to intern for another pro-hero's agency for a week.
The reason is to 'widen her perspective' which the redhead absolutely doubts is the real reason behind this... change.
Now, since she won the sports festival there are more hero agencies offering but somehow she doubted she'll get anything new other than experience.
No offense but tactics, intel gathering, rigorous training, villain operations, experiences- these are something that she could already get from the Nighteye Agency.
That's why it occurred to her- why not try something from her family then?
Interning at the FGC, Fuji-Gen Corporation, is out of the question given that she practically lives at his father's workshop located in their basement.
Interning at the Fujitani Hospital- now that's something out of her normal routine.
Er, well, given that her mother tried teaching her some first aid to a bunny and it still miraculously died for some reason...
She's matured now...?
Well, hopefully, no one dies this time.
"Right so here-", the two redheads stopped in front of the nurse station, where a male nurse is stationed, "-is Satoshi-san"
Nurse Satoshi stood up and bow politely making Akasuki bow in return while Kazuhiko simply nodded.
"He is the one in charge of you. Do your best", the male redhead ended with an awkward pat on her shoulder before he turned around and left.
'He looks uncomfortable I got thing urge to laugh', Akasuki smile twitches at the thought as she turns her attention back to the male nurse.
"Here is the list of doctors you will be helping out for your two weeks internship", Nurse Satoshi held out a clipboard which the redhead accepted curiously.
The male nurse continues, "and I also included the list of their patients that you will be taking care of", Nurse Satoshi ended with a warm smile.
"If you have any questions feel free to ask me, alright?"
Akasuki nodded before thanking the male nurse politely and walked onto her first destination while reading the list of patients on the clipboard.
Her mouth parted slightly as her eyes widen when she read an oh-so-familiar name.
Todoroki Rei.
"-and here is my report about today's patrol"
Akasuki handed a white folder to the pro-hero, who grabbed it stoically as always.
The redhead watched silently as Sir Nighteye opened the folder and began reading her report wordlessly.
The redhead mentally sighs as the pro-hero leaves her, yet again, to endure the somewhat awkward atmosphere that settled within the room.
'Or maybe I'm the only one who finds this awkward at all'
She silently wonders what's going through Sir Nighteye's head sometimes.
"Togata Mirio", Nighteye drawls out nonchalantly as he could, keeping his gaze firmly on the report in his possession, completely ignorant of his intern's raised eyebrows.
"It comes to my attention that he is part of your small group of friends yes?", he asked making the redhead scrunch her nose at his use of words.
'I feel somewhat offended at the 'small group of friends' part'
"He is, yes", Akasuki responded slowly, "May I ask why the sudden... interest?", she asked hesitantly.
'I guess I'll be the third wheel in this relationship sooner than I thought'
Nighteye closed the report folder abruptly making the redhead tense as the pro-hero raised his gaze towards her.
"How or why he caught my attention is not important", he responded stoically while placing his hands on his desk, clasping his hands together afterward.
"I want that boy in my agency", he stated firmly, his intense gaze never faltering, "And I'm expecting him to arrive as soon as he passes his licensure exam, Vermillion"
How he knows Mirio's gonna pass his hero licensure exam is something the redhead won't dare question.
Vermillion got an order and that order she's gonna comply.
She mentally noted to call Mirio later in the afternoon.
"Mou~ I can't believe it's already so late!"
Nejire pouted as she glared at the redhead girl beside her, who averted her gaze innocently.
"This is all your fault, Sukichan!", she whines as she moved to cling to the redhead's left arm, "Now it's too late for even a quick visit from the Mochi Store!"
Akasuki gives her a pointed look, "I wonder who stayed late at the classroom to finish our English literature homework", she responded dryly.
Nejire averted her gaze with a pout.
The two of them are walking towards the redhead's home, where the periwinkle-haired girl will be staying over the night with the permission of her parents.
A beautiful twilight can be seen plastered in the sky as the streetlights open one by one.
They were held up by the periwinkle-haired's makeup quiz, the same quiz she failed to pass much to the redhead's disbelief.
The two boys finished their training first and went home ahead- much to their protests and to the redhead's perseverance.
And here they are walking under the twilight skies, silently hoping for no villains to disrupt to oh so peaceful walk.
"I just don't get why we need those!", the periwinkle-haired girl whines, "It's not like we'll need to know what vision Macbeth has when killing that whoever-king to fighting crime!"
"That whoever king is King Duncan, his father", the redhead responded dryly, "And didn't we already tackled this last time we studied at-"
"-Tsuki!", Nejire brightened as she spotted a familiar ash-blonde boy, making the redhead turned to look in the direction she's looking at.
And there he is, Katsuki walking a few meters ahead of the two girls, wearing his school uniform with his hands tucked in his pockets.
Surprisingly, no green-haired boy can be seen beside him.
'He looks like some bad boy with issues character in a story'
Which... wasn't that far away from the truth.
"SALTY TSUKI!", Nejire shouted, making the redhead girl beside her wince at the high volume, "YOOOO! KATSUKI-KUN!"
Much to the girls' surprise, the ash-blonde boy didn't react to the periwinkle-haired girl's shouting.
Akasuki frowned slightly as Nejire began running towards the ash-blonde boy, who let out a surprised yelp at the periwinkle-haired girl's sudden appearance.
'Now that's strange, isn't it?', the redhead thought as she continues walking at a slow pace towards the now arguing teenagers.
'Katsun's one of the people I know that got a great sense of hearing'
When they were little kids, it was Katsuki who reacted to even the faintest sounds compared to Izuku.
Akasuki pursed her lips as her frown deepened, her heart feels heavy as a wave of uneasiness surge through her.
A trip to the doctors might be needed.
Akasuki tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear as she purses her lips, held up her other hand hesitantly in front of the faculty room.
After a few moments of internal debate, the redhead let out a sigh and nervously opened the door.
She peeked through the small gap and immediately glance around the room, stopping at a certain sound hero.
'Well, there's no backing out now'
With a deep breath, the redhead girl stepped inside the room, catching the attention of some teachers, and silently closed the door behind her.
"Well hello there, young listener!", Present Mic greeted her cheerfully as she walks toward the pro-hero, spinning his chair to face the redhead, "What brings you here?"
"Ah, good afternoon Yamada-sensei", Akasuki greeted her homeroom teacher with a slight bow, "I-I'm actually... Y-You're quirk makes people deaf, right sensei?", she stuttered.
The redhead cringes slightly at her statement, mentally scolding herself for saying insensitive words.
Present Mic's smile dimmed slightly, his cheery expression turning serious at her question.
Present Mic leaned forward a bit, clasping his hands together on his lap, "Is your quirk making you deaf, Genji?", he asked softly which the redhead shook her head in response.
"It's not me, Yamada-sensei", the redhead answered while nervously clasping her hands together, "It's actually Katsun, he's one of my little brothers", she explained.
"Oh?", Eraserhead voiced out loud, startling the redhead girl as he suddenly appeared nearby laying on the ground in his usual yellow sleeping bag.
"I wasn't aware you have younger siblings, Genji", the underground continues, completely ignoring her reaction, "Weren't you an only child?"
"They're not blood-related", Ectoplasm answered on his seat, facing their direction, "Bakugo Katsuki and Midoriya Izuku. Those are the names of her little brothers"
Ectoplasm frown slightly as he remembered what the redhead said previously, "Bakugo's quirk is affecting his hearing, did I hear it right Akachan?", he asked in concern.
Akasuki nodded solemnly, "We went for a check-up yesterday", she informed the pro-hero and the rest of the staff that is listening.
"Aunt Ume was the one who checked upon him. Unfortunately, his hearing has been deterring because of the explosions from his quirk"
Aunt Ume is Dr. Koto, who is Akachan's personal doctor if you have forgotten. She's married to her Uncle Kazuhiko, that's why Akachan called her Aunt Ume because her name is now Ume Fujitani.
I think it's confusing to call her Fujitani-san or Dr. Fujitani since... all Fujitani ocs are doctors.
"Papa is currently making him some hearing aids that also have some noise nullification", the redhead continues, "But there isn't anything we could do to make his hearing back to normal"
"Explosions, huh", Present Mic mused as he let out a low whistle, "Now that's a great quirk, don't you think so too, Shouta?", he asked while turning to face the human yellow caterpillar.
Eraserhead grunted as he slowly sits up, "A quirk can only be great if the user knows how to use it well", he responded vaguely.
Present Mic chuckles at his friend's reply before looking back at his redhead student, "Now, what do you want to do, young listener?"
Akasuki smiles nervously, "I- er, I was wondering if I could learn some JSL...? I just thought it's better to learn some instead of relying on the hearing aids", she ended hesitantly.
Much to the redhead's relief, Present Mic brightened at her suggestion and grabbed her hands in excitement.
"That's a great suggestion you have there, young listener!", he exclaimed cheerfully making the redhead sweatdrop as sparkles began to appear.
"Better yet, LET'S MAKE THIS A SPECIAL CLASS, YEAH!"
Akasuki blinked as she stares at the rambling pro-hero dumbfounded at what's happening.
"Guess she broke him, huh", Midnight mused at her seat as she stares at the scene with an amused smile, Cementoss- who is sitting beside her- hummed in agreement.
Snipe let out a sigh as he shakes his head at the situation, "And there he goes", he muttered under his breath.
"Get your headphones, everyone. Bring out an extra for the student too"
In a day, Principal Nezu gave his permission for JSL, Japanese Sign Language, special classes taught by Present Mic and Eraserhead.
Akasuki, together with Nejire, Mirio, and Tamaki, attended the special after-school classes and made sure to teach both of her little brothers in their free time.
Honestly, Nejire was just thrilled to learn a 'secret language' that Akasuki couldn't help but sigh fondly at her best friend.
Akasuki entered the small cafe, perking up when she spotted a certain blonde male sitting at the farthest right.
"Sorry, I'm late, Mikun", the redhead girl apologized as she takes a seat opposite Mirio, who brightened at her appearance.
"It's alright", Mirio assured the redhead with a bright smile, "Nejire-chan and Tamaki texted me they'll be running a bit late", he informed her while holding out his phone.
Nejire's text stating 'Mirio-kun~ Tamaki-kun and I got to hold up in the store! We'll be a bit late hehe :)' can be seen.
Akasuki can only stare at it suspiciously for a moment before letting out a sigh.
'I wonder what she's up to this time'
"Guess it's the two of us for the meantime", Mirio beamed, although sounding a bit nervous making the redhead frown slightly.
Akasuki tilts her head, "Are you okay, Mikun?", she asked, her eyes gleaming in concern at the blonde male, "You look a bit... fidgety"
Mirio let out a nervous chuckle, shifting his weight slightly, "I-It's probably the upcoming licensure exam!", he blurted out, albeit a bit too fast, his cheeks flushing faintly.
"Yeah! I'm nervous about passing, that's all!"
The redhead girl let out a chuckle, reaching out to grab the blonde's hands making Mirio glance down at clasped hands.
"I have complete faith that you'll pass the licensure exam this time", Akasuki let out a grin as the blonde male glance back to meet her gaze.
"You've been training harder than any of us, of course, you'll pass it!"
Mirio has been the first and last person that can be seen in Ground Gamma, where the students of Class 2-A who didn't pass the licensure exam last year are training.
Akasuki made sure to help the blonde male as much as she could, from sparring with him, giving him some tips, and more.
She remembers the time where she told him Sir Nighteye is interested in him, his smile was as bright as the sun!
She just hoped that her help was enough and she didn't mess up his chance to pass this year's licensure exam.
Mirio's face flared at the gesture, "I-I'm sure to pass with all your help!", he exclaimed, straightening his posture as he held up their clasped hands.
"I'll definitely pass with your help, Akachan!", he beamed, his gaze blazing with determination, "I won't let you down!"
Akasuki chuckles, her cheeks flushing faintly, "You'll do great", she responded fondly, her gaze softening as she meets his gaze, "You'll definitely be one of the best, Mikun"
She didn't know it was possible but Mirio's smile widened at her statement.
The moment was ruined by the sound of a phone ringing.
Akasuki blinked twice before her face glowed as soon as she realized their position.
"That's mine!", she blurted out nervously as she grabbed her phone on the table, making sure to turn her head away from the male blonde.
'Wh-What was that?!', the redhead thought as she fans herself with her other hand, her mind going blank as she kept on replaying the scene on her mind.
'I thought this story is some sort of family genre?! Wait, by family genre you don't mean the type where I'm going to be pregnant and-!'
"Akachan?"
Akasuki snapped out of her thoughts as she instinctively straightened her posture and stiffly looked back at the blonde male.
Mirio, whose smile didn't falter, gestures at the phone in her hands, "Aren't you going to answer that?", he asked, "I don't think you're the type to leave it, ne?"
"Ah, r-right", she stuttered out with an awkward smile, "I-I'll just... answer this, sorry", she ended lamely before answering the call.
"Hello-?", she was cut off by the voice of her mother, "Fujitani Hospital. Come quickly", Kaori blurted out making Akasuki frown.
"Why? Whose at the hospital?", she asked in alarm as she glances back at Mirio, who is now frowning in concern.
"It's Izuku", Akasuki's breath hitched and her eyes widen in shock.
"It seems like he got his quirk"
Akasuki dash through the hallway of the Fujitani hospital, her focus set on finding Room 43 where a certain green-haired boy is admitted.
Mirio is behind her, catching up to the redhead's quick strides as the two search for the room.
"There!", Mirio pointed hastily at a room on their right making the redhead ran in that direction with the blonde male following behind her.
The redhead girl opened the door, breathing heavily, and once opened her gaze instantly met Izuku's green orbs.
Akasuki let out a cry in relief as she glomps on the green-haired boy, who let out a nervous chuckle.
"I was so worried! I never would have thought you of all people would break his arms!", the redhead pulled away and frown disapprovingly, "I expected it from Katsun not from you, Izukun"
A vein popped on Katsuki's forehead, who is standing beside All Might in his true form, as he scowls, "What do you mean by that, huh?!", he snarled.
"I'm obviously the fucking sanest person between the two of -"
"-And what is this quirk manifestation I'm hearing?!", Akasuki continued, ignoring the ash-blonde boy making another angry mark appeared on his forehead.
The people inside the room consist of Izuku, Akasuki, Katsuki, Yagi, Mirio, and Inko- who is sitting on a chair beside Izuku's hospital bed.
Mirio, along with Yagi and Inko, sweatdropped as Katsuki's scowl deepened and his face reddened in anger as Akasuki continues her ramblings.
"I hastily brought some sweets so just eat whatever-
"-STOP IGNORING ME DAMNIT!"
At the same time as Katsuki's outburst, the door opened revealing Kaori Genji and Chiyo Shuzenji, also known as Recovery Girl.
"And here she is", Kaori said amused at the scene before her, "Recovery Girl, this is my daughter Genji Akasuki", she introduced while gesturing at her daughter, who is looking at them like a deer caught in headlights.
"I d-didn't know Recovery Girl will be here", she stutters as she tries to regain her composure, bowing politely at the youthful heroine while pushing away the urge to fangirl.
'Keep calm. Keep calm. Keep ca- Damnit, keep calm!'
"I-It's a pleasure to see you again", she greeted nervously, "I-I didn't k-know you'll be here. I didn't get anything-", she rambles on, her face heating in embarrassment.
Why she's acting so nervous, you ask?
Yes, as a Yuuei student she does see Recover Girl a lot of times compared to others due to her easily bruise body.
Not at much as canon Izuku does but enough to grant a long lecture from the youthful heroine.
Let's just say her respect rocketed more when the redhead worked alongside her one time.
Inko covers her mouth as she laughs silently, the redhead's action making her remember the times where little Akasuki would gush along with her son about heroes.
Mirio stares at the redhead in amusement and fondly, a small smile appearing on his face.
Katsuki deadpanned at his big sister, an eye twitching in irritation.
All Might stare at the scene amused, glancing briefly at the green-haired boy who is laughing nervously at the hospital, before glancing back at the redhead.
'So that's where he gets it', the number one hero thought fondly, 'So there's two of them after all'
Recovery Girl smiles at the redhead, amused at her antics, "Here dear, have some gummies", she said while holding out her hand, dropping some gummy bears on the redhead girl's palms.
"I'm here because Yagi called in a favor", the youthful heroine glance at the blonde hero briefly before looking back at the redhead girl.
Akasuki nodded, finally calming down her nerves, "What's the verdict?", she asked with a frown, glancing at her mother hesitantly, "Is Izukun alright? Are there any permanent damage or-?"
Kaori walked closer to her daughter before patting her shoulder comfortingly, "From what we discussed, he'll be fine", she turns to look at Inko with an assuring smile.
"While it is a surprise for his quirk to manifest this late but fortunately Izuku just needs a night's rest and he'll be fine for release tomorrow morning"
Everyone, except for Kaori and Chiyo, let out a sigh in relief at the good news.
"Oh, Izuku", Inko teared up as she caresses her son's cheek fondly, "It seems like God has answered my prayers", she smiled tearfully, "You have a quirk now!"
Inko leaned to engulf the green-haired boy in a bearlike hug with her tears of joy flowing freely from her eyes, "Thank goodness! I'm so happy for you, Izuku!", she cried out.
Izuku's lips quiver as he began to tear up, sniffling slightly as he returned the hug, "I'm going to be a hero", his voice cracked in the end, "I'm going to Yuuei, Kaasan"
The other people in the room, except for Katsuki, smiled warmly at the scene.
Akasuki glanced at Yagi before looking back at the Midoriya's, sniffling faintly as she began to tear up.
Unbeknownst to her, the ash-blonde boy caught her looking at the blonde hero standing beside him. His eyes narrowed at the redhead, the redhead's action confirmed his hypothesis.
His big sister knows something.
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
And here's the explanation part.
All Might train Izuku for 10 months, I believe, to shape his body because he was thin and lacked the necessary muscles for the quirk to work without destroying his body.
Well, that's what happened in canon.
In my judgment, All Might passed One for All earlier to Izuku because his body was already in the condition due to Akasuki's training sessions.
However, since Izuku is still young and in the anime, since I don't want any spoilers here yet, Izuku could barely control OFA at 20% and the new quirk- Blackwhip
Actually, I'm not completely sure if it's 20% in anime- is it? Do correct me if it's wrong.
Anyways, our cinnamon bun is currently at 8% and will develop his quirk much earlier compared to his canon counterpart.
AUTHOR'S REPLIES TO REVIEWS:
softsoundjameson, [1] Oh, now that you pointed it out maybe I am making Katsuki OOC much. Thanks, I'll try to be more mindful when writing him.
[1] Data Crash instead of Overload, right? I'm really blessed to have you guys cause I'm really bad at naming :') Thank you, and really it does sound more suiting than Overload since name wise Data Crash sums up
I'll be changing Overload into Data Crash on the previous chapter at my next update. Thank you again! :)
