Chapter 4

Once out of the shower, Sora did not leave Tokoyami side. She followed him as he brought the clothes she was previously wearing and all blankets and sheets from his bed to the laundry room. It didn't bother Tokoyami. He was used to having a shadow. The one thing he didn't know, was how to clean his bed. He couldn't make a big deal of it, however. It was clear Sora was feeling pretty guilty.

As Tokoyami and Sora walked back to his room, he was greeted by Tsuyu standing outside his door. "Asui?" Tokoyami asked.

"Hey Tokoyami. Hello Sora." Tsuyu waved to Sora, who quickly hid behind her brother's legs. "You can call me Tsu, Tokoyami."

"Right," he nodded. "How can I help you?

"I thought you may want this, ribbit." She extended a bottle to Tokoyami who took it. The Label read Kids and Pets accident removed. "My quirk makes me create slime. Depending on my mood it can sometimes leave an ammonia smell. This stuff gets rid of that."

Tokoyami looked shocked. "How did you- "

"When you walked by, I could pick up the smell. At first, I thought it was me, but when I realized it wasn't, I put the pieces together as to why you were heading to the bathroom."

Tokoyami smiled. "Thank you."

Tsuyu smiled. "It's not a problem. Sometimes it's hard to be the older sibling." She crouched down to Sora's level. "It's also hard to be the younger sibling too."

Sora hugged Tokoyami's legs tighter. She wasn't screaming, which was a good sign. Tokoyami bent over and ran his finger's through Sora's feathers. "Tsu is nice. You can trust her. She and I have fought together several times."

Sora stared into Tsuyu's dark eyes. "She is different."

Tokoyami chuckled. "Yes, she is."

"Is different good? She's not like any of the other girls."

"She is not like the other girls. She is not nearly as loud. Tsu is a hero. That's all she wants to do. She respects people. Here watch."

Tokoyami gestured to Tsuyu to stand up. She did and once she did Tokoyami wrapped his arms around the girl in a hug. Tsuyu smiled and reciprocated the motion placing he hands on Tokoyami's back.

"See," Tokoyami spoke with his head resting on Tsuyu's shoulder. "She is nice. Her hands are staying in one place. It is just a hug. Tsu respects my space and I respect hers.

As Tokoyami released the girl, Sora stepped out from behind Tokoyami. "I don't have to hug her, do I?"

"Only if you want to hug me, ribbit," said Tsuyu.

"I do not," Sora stated.

"And I can respect that." Tsuyu turned back to Tokoyami. Keep it for as long as you need. I will be in the common room. Hopefully We will see you two for dinner." She waved and walked towards the elevator.

"See you then. Thank you, Tsu." Tokoyami turned and opened the door to his room. As Sora rushed in, he read the label on the bottle. "Dark Shadow get me a large towel."

The shadow opened the closet and pulled out a dark towel. He brought it to his host, who took the towel. "Thank you."

"Fumi, are you mad at me?" Sora's voice squeaked. Tokoyami looked up from the bottle. He saw his sister was hiding under his desk.

Tokoyami shook his head. "I have no reason to be mad at you."

"But I messed up the bed."

"And this bottle here will fix it." He opened up the bottle and sprinkled the contents on the matters. He then laid the towel on top of the spill and pressed down. "We just need to leave that for an hour or two. That's perfect because that's when all the laundry will be done."

Sora crawled out from under the desk and sat on the floor. She hugged her knees and began to rock back and forth. Tokoyami looked around his room for something, and his eyes landed on his guitar.

"Did I tell you I learned how to play the guitar?"

"No. Will you play it?"

"Sure." Tokoyami grabbed the guitar and took a seat on the floor. He began to strum a gentle beat with the strings.

Sora stared at him for a while before pouncing on his knee. "No, Fumi! You have to sing if you play the guitar."

"Plenty of people play the guitar without singing," Tokoyami argued.

"But you can sing. If you can sing, you should sing." She pressed her forehead against her brother's face to show her seriousness. "You need to sing. Sing our song."

Tokoyami smiled. "Fine." Again, he picked up the guitar and began to strum. The chords were soft and melancholic, as he began to sing in his deep base tone.

A shooting star can only shine bright

When she is surrounded by no light.

She needs the darkness to show that she is strong.

When shadows creep in at night

The moon will keep her in his sights

He's always watching even when he is gone.

She never needs to fear for too long.

Sora stood and danced as Tokoyami strummed on his guitar. She began to sing with Tokoyami as the chorus began.

Dance across the skies.

We'll have a million years to fly.

The sun will rise, and we will have another day.

They keep saying they're going to try,

Everyday we have more reasons to cry

Remember we will laugh and run away.

We will find a safe place for us to lay.

We're going to be happy far away.

Tomorrow is always another day.

"That's a nice song," a friendly voice spoke from the door way.

Tokoyami turned around to see Aizawa and Bakuou standing in the doorway. His beak flushed. He really had become too laxed with Sora around.

"Fumi wrote it," Sora said still twirling in the room.

"Really?" Aizawa said with a smirk. "You never told us you liked to write songs too, Tokoyami?"

"You have to be really special to get a song from Fumi," Sora said stopping in place. "He wrote this song for me. I've never heard it with the guitar before."

"Oh? And how did he do with the guitar?" Aizawa asked.

"It sounds really good." Sora hopped on Tokoyami's lap.

Tokoyami smiled and nuzzled his beak in her hair. I'm glad you approved."

"Hey Sora, I have to talk to Tokoyami. I was hoping I could ask you to play with Bakugou while I did. Is that alright?"

Sora looked over at Bakugou. "Can we play ring around the roses?"

Bakugou shrugged. "Whatever."

"Yay!" Sora jumped up and went to grab Bakugou's hand. She paused and looked at him. "We don't have to play with anyone else, do we?"

"Not unless you want to," Bakugou said. "They're all idiots."

Sora shook her head. "I don't want to play with idiots." She took Bakugou's hand.

"Good. We'll be in the court yard." The blond guided the child out of the room.

Aizawa closed the door before joining Tokoyami on the floor. "The other teachers, principal Nezu and I held a meeting this afternoon. We were discussing what could be done for you and Sora."

"You do not need to gloss over anything, Sensei," Tokoyami interrupted. "I realize that I can not leave Sora home alone. I I am to return home, I will need to drop out of U.A."

"That's exactly what we don't want," Aizawa stated.

Tokoyami stared with wide eyes. How could his teacher expect him to leave his sister behind? "I can't send her back there."

"I know," Aizawa said. "You are a good hero, and the world needs you. It's unfortunate that the world has not provided for you before this moment. Your sister coming here is alarming. The fact that she snuck onto our campus to get to a safe place is of great concern. As a school with Hero faculty, we can not return her with out knowing she is safe."

"So, she is staying here?"

"For now. Principal Nezu is looking into all the legal matters. What we can do as a school depends on how you answer these next questions."

"I have a feeling these are going to get very personal," Tokoyami sighed.

Aizawa nodded. "They will. I'm just going come out and say it. Was your grandmother arrested for actions she did onto you, or onto Sora?"

"Until recently I had been her only target," Tokoyami answered plainly.

Aizawa's eyes grew. "What do you mean?"

"I mean that Sora is now dealing with this alone. That never happened when I was home."

Aizawa sighed. He couldn't contain the feelings he had anymore. Not with this new information. No wonder the girl ran here. He reached across to Tokoyami and pulled him into hug. Tokoyami's body began to shake. The façade he had placed before himself while in front of Sora fell, and he allowed himself to cry.

"We're going to take care of you and Sora," Aizawa said upon releasing the boy. "But I need you to tell me everything.

"Alright," Tokoyami nodded. He exhaled, before retelling the tales of hi childhood to his teacher.

Bakugou stood outside, bored out of his mind as Sora skipped in circles around him. She held onto one of his hands as she moved about. She skipped as she sang:

Ring around the rosy
A pocketful of posies
"Ashes, Ashes"
We all fall down

Each time she finished Bakugou would let off a small explosion from the palm of his hand. This would ignite the girl. She would fall to ashes. Bakugou would wait an undetermined amount of time, and the child would reform cheering and laughing. She would then ask to do it again. This is what he had done for the past hour. Doing anything for an hour was too much. It was time for a break.

"Hey, we should stop and break. You can't do that for too long, you will be exhausted." Bakugou picked up the girl and brought her to the shade of a tree.

"Now what, Bakugou?" Sora asked.

"Now we rest."

"Okay." Bakugou was surprised at the child's acceptance. She closed her eyes, crossed her arms, and leaned her back against the tree. One leg was extended while the other was bent up. She was a tiny version of Tokoyami whenever the class had a break. Bakugou closed his eyes and leaned back, a small smirk forming on his lips.

"Did I get Fumi in trouble by coming here?"

Bakugou cracked an eye open to look at Sora. Her head was now hunched over her leg as she tugged at grass on the ground. "No."

"He's been gone a long time." Small drops of water pooled around her eyes.

"Tsc, it's nothing to cry about. Adults always talk forever. Who knows what the hell Aizawa is saying." Bakugou reached down and picked a few blades of grass from the ground. He tossed the blades in front of him.

Sora sniffled and whipped her eyes. "Okay."

After a few minutes of silence, Bakugou stood up. He extended his hand to Sora. "You wanna keep playing that roses game or whatever?" The girl's face lit up and she smiled as she grabbed the boys and began twirling and singing around him.
