A Delusion, one of the many creations resulting from the more advanced nation of Snezhnaya. One brought about by the desire to create an army capable of wielding the elements without requiring the Gods' favor. It gave control over the elements but had a heavy price for those who weren't allogeneic, humans who already had a Vision.
Mainly used by the ranks in the Fatui, the dubious diplomats that kept their hands firmly over Teyvat, scheming behind closed doors and loyal to the Tsaritsa, the Cryo Archon.
This is what concerned Ayaka because this meant to her that she may not be alone coming from the world of Teyvat nor would it mean she would be the last. Though for now, that remained a theory, although not knowing where the Delusion came from, it was safe to assume that it wasn't all that it seems.
The Delusion glowed with an eerie light blue, the orb shined as if asking for someone to use it. Ayaka gulped down before she got her hand closer to the Delusion. Her hand crept closer before finally... she felt the slightly warmed surface.
'It's reacting...'
It started to glow brightly as Ayaka grasped it under her grip. She felt nothing unusual, to see if it was the real deal she decided to call forth the power of Anemo.
'A small breeze will do.'
While grabbing the Delusion on her right she focused on her left and closed her eyes. She imagined facing a cliff with herself standing on the edge with that familiar push that the draft gave.
She opened her eyes and saw it. 'Anemo... So it's just as I feared. This is a true Delusion.'
Her hand had a small gathering of wind at her palms. It swirled around with a breeze coming from the center. Ayaka stopped using Anemo and looked at the box before her. She glances back and forth from the Delusion to the box and sighed out.
'I need to find whoever sent this and the one who's supposed to receive it. This Delusion is something excellent in quality so it must be owned by someone important enough to be granted this. If this was sent only a week ago, then why was it that the date before was repeatedly erased until it was 10 months ago? That means whoever had this up until now was sending it to someone specifically but eventually was sent to this address and the person sending it is still around here to mail it a week ago.'
The situation was incredibly thought-provoking, there was too much to consider. With the exam result still being processed and school heading her way. There would be less effort that she could do to uncover the mystery that is surrounding a Delusion in Japan.
'Perhaps the people that came here from Teyvat would know how they arrived in Japan.'
She started to place back the Delusion in the box before stopping short of actually putting it in. She rests the Delusion on her bed and observes the box. She taps on the surface of the container and tried to discern anything odd.
'No false bottom of any sort. So it is just a simple box someone used to keep this Delusion in. But do I keep the Delusion in the box? If the person finds out that they had sent this to the wrong person then whoever that may be might come while I'm away.'
Deciding that she wouldn't risk the chance of Fatui regaining the Delusion, Ayaka decided she would wear it on her without making it too obvious she had a Delusion. Somewhere like inside her clothing or somewhere safe to keep it while she tries to find out more leads.
She looks to the side and saw the packaging it was in. Ayaka looked through the packaging and saw the post office's name in big bold red letters, It read JP Post on it. Ayaka took out her phone, courtesy of All Might, and searched for the address present on the packaging.
'It's a distance away but I could reach it before nightfall.'
Later...
Ayaka went outside with her home clothes layered over with a simple grey jacket and some basic jeans. It was still late noon so there was still a lot of sunlight still shining down.
She walked along the side of the street, the daily life of the citizens of Musutafu going on their day while Ayaka kept looking at her phone for directions. Even in the 10 months, she was in Japan, she still wasn't confident in the alien city landscape. The only direction she ever went to was toward Dagobah beach but now that she had time aside from working on her Quirk-Vision, she could finally explore more than her routine.
'It should be around this street. Oh, there it is.'
It was a quaint location with only one entrance leading directly to a counter with an employee behind it. Ayaka entered and approached the employee who bowed in greeting.
"Hello, how may I be of assistance?" the man behind the counter asks.
"Greetings, I have an inquiry on the origin of a package delivered to me this day."
The employee looked down at the computer, with a few taps on the keyboard and he turns back to Ayaka. "Do you have the tracking number? We need it to see its history, your package should be documented where our other locations received it."
Ayaka handed over the wrapping used on the box. "I do, I have the packaging on me right now. I hope it's okay." The man takes it and looks at the label on the back, a few more clicks come from the keyboard and he could see where the box's history of delivery.
"It passed through 3 of our other locations. Here, it originally was given at a location in Yokohama, personally too."
"Where's that?" Ayaka asked.
"It's a city in the Tokyo metropolitan area. You need to take a bullet train over if you want to ask them more about your package. Say, what's so special about it?" He curiously questioned.
"Nothing, just curious since there were no specific details." She used it as an excuse.
The man nodded in understanding. The package didn't have any specific details aside from a destination. Not anything like a specific home address of where it came from. "Ah, it would be suspicious. Although our location in Yokohama can't really denote where the person who sent it lives. Since the sender personally gave the package to our location, they could be anywhere in Yokohama. Aside from that, anything else?"
Ayaka swayed her head from side to side. "Nothing else, thank you for your time."
Ayaka bowed and went outside the door, while on her way back home she had time to keep thinking about what she should do. 'Tokyo is far from here, isn't it? I promised I would meet up tomorrow with Midoriya and find part-time employment. I won't have enough time to properly pursue this endeavor once UA starts.'
As she stopped her walk to wait to cross the street, someone behind her managed to call for her attention.
"Woah, so it is you! I didn't get the chance to see it for myself but still, you were pretty manly!"
Ayaka almost involuntarily quirked an eyebrow at the way she was being complimented but thanked the red-haired teen anyways. "Thank you, I appreciate the compliment. Were you in the same battle center? I don't recall seeing you during the exam."
The teen points to himself with his thumb as he spoke in a highly energetic tone.
"I was part of the exam! Though I'm at a different center than you are. I saw you with that spiky blonde dude too at the entrance. I haven't seen anyone be so manly twice in a single day!"
Ayaka was starting to see what manly meant. "Why thank you. Though If I may ask, what did you mean see what for yourself?"
"Oh, that! It's the frozen robot thing that you did. You got a lot of people looking at you even from the other battle centers, along with another manly man doing manly things!"
The excessive amount of using the word manly made her chuckle on the inside. "That's a surprise, I didn't know my feat would be so widely known."
He looks on with an astonished face. "A surprise? You froze the zero pointer who wouldn't notice that?! Your quirk is so flashy, even I wish I has the same thing!" Ayaka sees his skin and body suddenly turn jagged and rough. "My Quirk can only harden and that's basically it."
Ayaka waved her hands. "Don't look down on what incredible gift you have. I think you have a great Quirk regardless of whether it is flashy or not."
"Heh thanks, I was fired up when I just got the gossip from the other people during the exam. Let's see each other in the same class, I can't wait to train with you Kamisato."
"You know me?"
"Oh yeah, your name popped up multiple times after the test. People said stuff about the sludge inside back then. Man, I wish I could see a video of you freezing that thing, so cool! Literally!"
Ayaka smiled as she thought of the teen being an outgoing and swell person. Like the kind of friend that screams out being a bro from just the actions he does.
"Anyway sorry to bother you." He says.
"I don't have anything to do anyway I'm not in a rush."
He nods. "That's good, I just wanted to tell you were pretty awesome just from hearing about what you did. I hope we meet each other in UA once I get in! See ya!"
"Hold on, what's your name? If I do get accepted then it'd be better to know who I am looking for."
"Oh Right, the name's Eijiro Kirishima."
A Little While Later...
After the short encounter, Ayaka sat on a bench with her hand caressing the hidden Delusion inside her jacket tied to just above her hips, secure enough to not hang loosely.
'There are only openings on weekends for me to find out more about whoever came from Teyvat. There's a chance that it would take way longer to investigate. Yokohama is supposedly a large city. I don't even know where to start.'
She stops moving her hand over the Delusion as a sudden epiphany comes. 'Flashy?' Kirishima had unknowingly given Ayaka something to think about. 'If indeed the Fatui were able to get transported here the same way I was then they should have their Delusions still on them.'
Like a spark before a blaze, Ayaka got a eureka moment. 'That's something to go by. There are only 7 elements, there could be active Villains or Heroes that have that kind of ability. The Fatui can try to hide their Delusions all they want, but that glow and symbol will be there when they use it.'
She stood up and opened her phone, Ayaka opened her contacts which only had two numbers on there. She looked straight at the green bean's number and dialed it.
The phone was brought up to her ears while the dialing tone ended and a familiar voice answered. "Ah, ye-yes, Kamisato? What is it? Do you need something?"
"Midoriya do you know anyone that has Quirks that specialize in a specific element? Maybe an Emitter type that has control over electricity?" Ayaka asked.
"Oh? Ummm, hold on I think I have that on my 6th edition." The speakers tune out as Ayaka heard shuffling. "There's a lot to consider Kamisato, I need to know what kind you're looking for. There's a different variety of them, I need something more specific. I only do Heroes but some Villains have those if I recall. Why do you need to know?"
"Just some research, will it take long for you to find it over the call?"
"Well it's fine over the phone but if you have something to describe, I can't tell it in excruciating detail, maybe appearances would be hard to imagine properly. Again it's fine over the phone but if you're looking at the look of a person then it would be harder."
"Okay, I'll come over to your place. I'll stay until night." She started to end the call as she walked faster on her way to Midoriya's home.
"Yeah! That's okay- wait what?!-" the call gets cut off.
Izuku looked up from his call with dead eyes. He opened the door from his room and noted the tons of All Might memorabilia. He sighed, closed the door, and headed for the kitchen where he saw his mother sitting on the couch watching television.
Izuku gulped down as he nervously waited for the unplanned visit by Ayaka. 'Gah! Ayaka's gonna come here. Mom's gonna see her and there's bound to be Mom teasing me!'
Surprisingly, because of his intent to not get embarrassed by his mom teasing him over a girl, he steeled his expression as he planned to stay strong. 'I can do this.'
