Chapter 3: Time skip

3 Years after...

Sajoguru P.O.V

" Huff huff hehe he'll never find me hear "

Inside of a broken car was a little female child with pig tails hiding inside the car while giggling.

" He he he no way big brother soju will ever find me I'm so sneaky as a butterfly he he~ "

" Yeah sneaky indeed "

" Huh? "

As the little girl was hiding she heared a voice that was behind the broken car. she slowly look behind her to see his big brother sajoguru standing with a smile in his face.

The little girl was shocked a bit soon quickly dispersed it.

" No fair I was hiding good!!! "

" Sorry but your hiding spots are pretty obvious since you always tend to hide spacific places so you should better next time okay~ "

" Hmp! I hate you "

" Yeah yeah let's go find the others okay momie "

I said to her as I opened the run down car. I retrieve Momie back to where our home is and went back to playing the game of hide and seek.

4 hours before

It has been 3 years since I come to play with the children as I slowly but steadily train my endurance, speed, agility, flexibility and reflexes to a good degree.

Although my other older siblings always saw me playing with the other kids. I have been sneakily training myself so that I'm ready to train myself in combat.

Thanks to many years in the place I was imprisson to that I dubed the upside-down world I have watched and practice many bizzar fighting styles in otherworld's.

Although I only attempted to practiced fighting ever since I was a soul in that place. years of constantly watching has caught me to stick and memorize all the world's I watch that it allowed it to be in grave in my soul.

So before my little exercise with these kids has began I usually tried to remember the forms and practice's I previously know to keep myself on my toe's.

I tested using my quirk to fight myself and odly enough it actually work out but not affective. Cause when I use my quirk to copy myself my copy followed me and attack me on sight.

The attack it made on me is strong and fast. faster than I ever imagine. I was quickly caught off guard and protected myself after which I push over to my clone and trip.

The clone that finished attacking me dissapeared for about 0.5 second. that

fast and efficiency of my clone that caught off guard cought me by surprise.

I didn't tested my quirk's quality over the original. my quirk can conjure clone's but I couldn't pin point how strong they are but after the little I made it seemed that me and my clone are equil in strenght except to it's efficiency and speed.

With this another revolution on my quirk I emmidiently found it interesting and bring myself up. I swirl my arms to activate my quirk and launch myself towards the flouting mirror in which case my clone quickly materialize's and launch itself just like me.

I tried to kick in the head in which case I raised my legs and both big us kicked each other in the leg's.

" KICK! "

" AGH! "

Although it looked like we both kicked in the same time my clone is already ahead of me that it kicked the vital part of my legs.

The clone emmidiently di- materialize's for 0.5 minutes while I hurt my leg.

" Agh! good I didn't know my clone's are this affective "

I said in utter pain as it hurts like hell for to feel the pain but non the less I decided to stop and rest.

I didn't expect my first training in combat will be this hard. but non the less I think will benefit me a lot. me facing the effective clone version will be a challenge but a good one to in combat although I need to find a way to make my clone stick around for me to actually fight it.

I rested for a while but didn't stop at training myself. I incircle'd my fingers to conjure a clone version of my hand while looking at it and tried finding ways to better control my clone.

I did this exactly for about an hour until I felt better and begin my combat training again. I did this every early in the morning for about three years.

Using every method that is caught on my mind as well as finding ways if there's loophole's to my quirk I tested and trained myself just incase if I needed protection.

Cause in the world of superpower's it is alway's important to have strenght to survive.

Now it is not only me that has been changed during these years some of my older brother's and sisters started to willingly study about the outside of our little city.

Yamiurka after teaching me all he knows he started to do all he can to teach me and including other topics about science, math, english and any form of education. unfortunately he didn't have that much knowledge except for first and second elementary curriculum.

Although he limited knowledge he has been saving a lot of money in our education trying his best to scrap both food and money for us to get a descent school. I have seen his worried face for a while now as I am no stranger of reading other people.

I have seen him started to struggle as day by day we started seeing him home at late at night with scar's, wound's and injuries that could quickly a normal person but he emmidiently heal's it off.

Although I don't know what's his quirk is it has something to do with self regeneration but even so I started to worry about him. With these passing days I couldn't help but to be a little bit worried.

After his decent salary as a mercenary as well as a worker at a junkyard he balance's his time at his two jobs as well as spending time with us both.

I don't know how he is able to get around away from this city considering this place doesn't have any bussness except being a junkyard worker so it is impossible to be a mercenary in this citie's condition.

Either he has a way to go to one city to another by a speed bout or through other means as it seems possible as he needed to move around to other citie's in japan in order to be affective as a mercenary.

These worrying thought's and questions kept crowling to me every single day while I see him to struggle. although he never showed it to the kids sometimes and alway's tried to make them smile I can tell that he is making a front to hide his trouble's to the kids making me a bit sad that I too have to hide this fact to them as I know they would be worried.

The kids might be ignorent enough to believe everything's fine but I can see that some of my older siblings mainly geru, maki, and toru have seen his worried face to time to time making them sometime's be sick in there stomach's.

The four of us who knew just kept silent for a while until one us decided that it is enough for them to hide and decided to brake this circle of hiding.

BEFORE DINNER...

" Hey kid's guess what I have in my hand? "

" Oh is it Takoyaki!? "

" Oh oh it's um korokke!? "

" Please be Yakitori please be Yakitori "

" Come on guess? "

Coming out from the kitchen yamiurka came out with a plate hidden food on his hands. he tempted the kids to guess as these kids trying there found there way to guess what's on there manu.

Looking at this kid's for a while I chuckled for a bit as toru bite's her fingers as if she wanted to try answering.

" Eh no answers? Oh well I might as well eat it all? "

" Wait wait it's sushi it's sushi "

" Nauh it's obviously takoyaki! "

" takoyaki's gross I want oden! "

" Haha it seems like all of ya are hungry huh haha just kidding here eat kids "

Yamiurka said with a bit of a laughing amused smirk but even so he placed the food and uncover the clothe was hiding under the plate.

Once the food has been finally revealed Momie who was right next beside me grown excited as she screamed in joy.

" Yay takoyaki!!! "

She said as she tries to grab it.

" Up up momie don't you forget something "

" Huh forget? "

" You didn't remember? Okay momie don't forget this time remember when eating remember to say your prayers okay "

" Oh! Right prayers kay I got this! "

" Clap! "

Momie once she remembered she start to clap her hand together and started to say thanks.

" Thank you very much! "

She said after which she emmidiently went in and grab as manny takoyaki's as she possibly can.

" Seriously momie have you really think about yourself "

" Mmm I need to eat these before they turn cold "

" Eh momie- chan please slow down you might choke to death if you do that "

While momie is ignoring me to eat toru trie's to warn her not to choke her food.

Looking at momie who looks like a troubled child I sighed and get one to myself. Me and the rest of us are eating together in harmony. although there are some troublesome child's in our big family I didn't mind as it always like this in a family meal.

We all eat our meals a bit roughly yet enjoyingly for a couple of hours after which we're all done with our dinner as most of my siblings started to run there bedroom.

" Hey kid's don't run!? "

Toru who was the first to notice begin's to try and calm them down leaving only a three of us in the dinner table including yami.

" ... "

Geru was silent when the kids went to bed as yami noticed this but seemed to not be surprised by this as he grabs something from his pockets as soon as the kids are finally in there bed's.

Grabbing something in his pocket he lift's a pack of cigarettes as well as a lighter. with a bit of a mature tone he said while lighting his cigarette.

" Flick! "

" Meet outside when you two are done cleaning the dishes "

That was his words before he left the table.

" Phew- "

The smoke that he inhale reach the two us when he opens the door to go outside. seeing that he left I didn't do any more unnecessary silence and started to grab the plates and put them to be clean.

Geru followed suit of me as he two did the same. although these plates are quite massive since where 13 plus him that pile's up the kitchen.

I didn't speak and just continue to clean the dishes until geru spoke to me making the silence a little less gloomy.

" Sajo... why didn't you left us alone "

" Hmmm because I want to hear your conversation that's all beside's... are you sure about your decision? "

I said to geru with still not looking away at the plate's I'm washing as I focus my whole sense's on the plates.

Geru didn't say anything but non the less I can tell he isn't sure if what his doing is good or bad but even so I still encourage him.

" Listen if you really wanted to do this for our family than it's good but... alway's remember to ask for help when your started to feel uneasy okay "

" O-okay... I don't know if this is the right thing to do. I'm already 11 but I barely even understand what yami's teaching but if it's benefits our future's then... I'll have to do it "

" Hmm good luck then "

Both of talked a bit to make sure to his decision. I have already seen how determined geru's ambition is to make us be able to have happy and rich live's.

With this mindset I determination I have seen how his goal is going to be. we continue'd cleaning the dishes for hours until where done. both of us walked outside our house and open the door to meet yami outside smoking and looking up above the night sky to see star's shining and gleasening up.

" Inhale- Phew- So ya done "

" Yeah... "

" ... So geru...what is it your going to tell me about "

" ... "

" ... "

" ...I... "

" Come on now speak up "

" ... I-I want... to be a hero "
