Grid Ghost

by AileenRoseven

What should've been Obake's end was only the beginning for him. After miraculously surviving the fall out of his attempt to destroy San Fransokyo and having a epitome, Obake finds himself set on a new mission to make things right. Whether he's seen as a hero or not doesn't matter to him. What matters is something is done instead of standing by and doing nothing.

24. To The Future

"Honey! I'm on my way out!"

"Wait!"

Obake was stopped at the door by his wife, Kim giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Good luck on your first day."

"Thanks… how do I look?"

Kim smiled, playing with Obake's now grown out hair.

"Handsome. Especially with those glasses."

"Oh you…" He kissed her quickly. "Have a good day at the hospital."

"I will. Now, get going."

Obake nodded, heading out the door, greeting Tadashi in the driveway.

"Ready for insanity, Professor Reid?" He grinned.

"Of course."

They got into the car, Obake waving one last time to his wife as she peered out the door, before they headed out.

"You ready to go back to school?"

"Not in the way I thought, but… it'll be good to go home." Tadashi let out a shaky sigh. "Still nervous. That weird?"

"Not at all. I'm nervous too… but we'll get through it together."

Both as teachers… and as a heroes.

The End
