I hoped you enjoyed the first chapter now on to the next chapter. In order to make up for the first chapter for being so short, so here's a much longer chapter. I am in need of writers and editors. PM if you want to help me out. Now let's start the show.
Chapter 2- The surprise of a lifetime
"Uhn, I have to go through life again as a female, ok," I say to myself thinking what my plan of action is.
"You know you're remarkably calm about this situation," Thanatos says coming from out from nowhere.
"Wait, what the hell are you doing here aren't you supposed to be working or something!?" Half surprise and half wondering seriously, what the hell is she doing here and in my mind. Doesn't she have to work at all times?
"Heh heh, I'm working with you cause I want to see the adventures you go on. Don't worry, I have a system for something like this otherwise death would not exist." She manages to say while giving me a heart attack in my mind.
"Okay, the reason I'm so calm is that, death happens and you took away my memories of my past life, so that's why I'm so calm." I manage to say after I get heart under control. I then go to see what's happening in the real world.
"What's her name, what's her name?" The older girl says giddily, wanting to see her new sister.
"Calm down, sweetie, umm oh, I know, how about Cortney Jr, honey?" The mother asks with my baby self giggling at the name.
"She seems to like it, honey." The father answers. At this point, I return back to my mind and see Thanatos filing her nails.
"So I guess you want to know more about me, huh?" She remarked at this point, I finally take in the reaper girl clothing. She is wearing a jacket and has the hood, of which has little horns sown in them, her hair is light green and is straight and she has bangs and a hair clip in the shape of a scythe in her hair.
"First of all, aren't you supposed to have a scythe, besides the one in your hair? Second, what's up with the rune magic?" I ask getting the two biggest questions out of my head.
"Well, we stopped using the scythe cliche to match with the times and it things easier to help people pass on and we have always used rune magics. I don't know where you people got the idea that, we don't have or use magic." She manages to say all without stopping her nail filing.
"OK, that makes sense, but who is this "we" you keep mentioning?" I retort now wanting to know, who "we" is.
"Well, just like how you can only be in one place at a time, that's why I say "we", there's been a whole organization for death keeping." She answers back, a smirk forming in her mouth grinning almost like the Cheshire cat.
"Fine, but I take it you're an anime fan, huh?" I fired back, this breaks her, out of her nail filing and causes to start bluish from embarrassment. "It's okay, I'm one too. Well, I'm about to go to sleep Goodnight." I managed to say she can say something.
After that time flew by, during which I learned a lot about Thanatos, which I give her the nickname of Thana, which she enjoyed and I learned that Fairy Tail is her favorite show and where she got her inspiration to how she uses her magic. Before I know it, it's my fifth birthday, my full name is Cortney Kamryn Tan Jr, my mom and dad names are Cortney and John Tan and my big sister Lisa. My sister tells me, mom works for the people that manufacture hero suits and dad is a sidekick for a hero organization. She tells me that his quirk gives him enhanced durability, while mother and herself are quirk less.
I ask her, what she plans on doing she tells me she wants to become a martial artist. I ask her if she can teach me, she tells me she will when I turn six. Me and sis are often alone due to mom and dad working all the time, but they make it up when they can. A week after my birthday, I'm sent off to daycare.
Boy, if their one thing the anime doesn't show, it's how weird kids who quirks are active immediately or their side effects make them look. I mean some of them are growing fur, some have extra limbs and a few of them I can't even describe what's going on. However, I can't say I look like a normal human I have brown eyes, my hair is almost white like snow, I say almost because I have a red little bang growing out the front of my head.. I tried getting rid of it, when I four when it started to grow in, but it literally grew back in a day. Then again anyone with a quirk can be considered far from normal in looks or personality.
After this thought, l spot someone who I barely recognize from the tournament arc. A blond-haired girl with doe eyes and nubs of horns that are starting to grow. All I know is that she was one of the people that got zapped by Denki. I try talking to her, only to realize my native language is Japanese, but she speaks English, however, I can still understand her due to my knowledge of my old life.
"Thana, help." I whisper, hoping she can hear me.
"Wait, come here." That's all I hear her say before my vision goes White, next thing I know I'm standing in some sort of room decorated by a teenager with posters and books and mangas in shelves. I look forward to see, Thana seating in a chair reading a book.
"Wait, how am I here and where did you get all this stuff?" I ask completely confused on the situation at hand.
"What, do you think I wouldn't get comfortable? I mean I am going to be with you for the rest of your life. She says while the book in her lap.
"By the way, I didn't steal this. I just moved my room into your mind with my magic." This completely stops and remark I had, I then get my mind running and back to the situation at hand.
"How do talk to her, do I talk to her in my native language or English? I mean my dad is a transfer so he speaks English, however, that isn't enough of a good reason why, so what do?" I say in complete distress, trying not to lose an opportunity to lose a shot at making my first friend.
"Calm down, calm down hmm just talk to her in English and just wing it." Thana spits out in an I don't know pose.
"Okay, I'll try, thanks for the advice." I say before adding on "Do I just go through the-". All Thana does is shake her head before going back to her book. I go through the door and I feel someone shaking me. It's the girl again and she looks concerned,
"Okay, when in Thana's room time flows normally." I mentally note, I look at the girl again and notice her knees bend a little weird.
"Hi, I'm Cortney Tan Jr. And you are?" I ask the girl wondering, what she is doing here.
"I-I'm Pony Tsunotori. I didn't realize you can speak English. Nice to meet you." Her voice brings out her timid nature.
"It's okay, I didn't know there was a foreigner with us. What brings you out here, huh Pony?" While saying this I realize, I shouldn't have met Pony until high school must be the ripples setting in.
"Oh, my mom and dad moved here due to their jobs. They're heroes, who both got transferred over to this city, but are on temporarily leave. What about you, is that why you know English, too Cortney?" Pony asks.
"Huh, no, my mom is quirkless and my dad is a sidekick, who transfer here when he married my mom," I told Pony.
"I learned English, by picking up phrases from my dad and my sister taught me a lot of it." When I tell her this her tail started shaking wildly,
"Oh wait, you have a tail too, huh?" I manage to say while looking behind her and seeing a bushy little tail on her. "Do you know what your quirk is?" I say confused at what her quirk possibly is. "Um, I don't know what my quirk fully is yet, sorry." Nervous that I probably didn't like her answer.
"It's okay, I was just curious," I say, trying to cheer her up. "Hey, do you want to be my friend?" I say seeing for how long we've been talking.
"Sure." Pony answers back instantly. I see this becoming a great friendship.
And that's the end of this chapter. Yup Pony from Class 1-B joins early, let's see where this goes next time. P.S. The Courtney reason can speak English is due to her memories, otherwise, they are useless because she couldn't understand them.
