Date: May 14,
Today was supposed to be a normal day of my part-time work, but again someone was misusing their quirk. I tried to disable their quirk without someone noticing, but…
"Mind telling me miss, why did you use your quirk?" The hero sat, waiting for my answer.
"I'm sorry? If I didn't use my quirk, that old lady we saw would have died. Would you rather have had me do nothing?" I asked, sarcasm almost leaking into my voice.
The hero sighed, looking at me and then at a few papers in front of him. "You're not even in a hero school, why do you keep using your powers?"
It's not like I chose not to go to a hero high school. "I was born with the power to control, but I want to protect people not control them." I said, at the brink of tears. "So I can't help it, every time I see someone in danger I want to help." I really wanted to go to one, but my mother said I couldn't.
"Miss Cherry Belcher, that's your name, right?"
"Yeah it is, what's yours? You've been interrogating me, yet I don't even know your name." Why talk about this now, is this cop slow or something?
"We've been told your ability is quirk control, so we didn't tell you our name in case that's how your quirk works."
"Why didn't you start with, 'Miss tell me more about your quirk.' Instead of 'miss why did you do this?' " I tilted my head. They must be super cautious or super stupid. "Anywho I can't use my quirk on anyone I haven't touched recently, even if I barely touch them I can control their quirk. It only lasts for about half an hour then I lose control over the quirk." I glanced at the ceiling fan, "Also, I don't use my quirk on civilians or heroes, endless there's a chance someone may die."
"Hm, ok I'll tell you. Call me Visible."
What kind of person has people call them Visible? He winced as if I called him a pervert. Why'd he wince? "Is that your hero name?"
"Yes, my ability is detective, it allows me to see the truth. Meaning I can also read minds." He looked at me, trying to get a read on my feelings.
Holy carp, he can read minds? I blushed, getting embarrassed. That's so embarrassing. He read all my thoughts up until now! I heard my loud heartbeat in my ears as I glared at this hero.
"I'm sorry for breaching your thoughts earlier." he looked down, avoiding my gaze.
"You should be! That's so embarrassing, don't you know a girl needs her privacy?! I can't believe you were just reading my mind like that! You must be some pervert of a Hero like Grape Juice or something!" I ranted, I can't believe he just read my mind. That's so embarrassing. What if I was thinking of going to the bathroom or something that would be even more embarrassing! Trying to calm myself down, I continued. "I-if you're still reading my mind stop."
"Alright, I won't read your mind anymore. Tell me why do you want to be a hero?" He said, looking at my gold eyes.
Stunned, I just looked at him in silence. How'd he know- wait, he said he could read minds. And I kinda insinuated I wanted to be one. "Well, I want to help people that need it. Even if they don't think they do, it's something only a hero can do."
He looked down with a serious expression on his face. "Would you go to a hero school if someone paid for it for you?"
"Yes, I would." I said immediately, "If I had a sponsor like that I would thank them profusely."
"What if your mother said you can't?"
"I would go anyway, you can't restrain me from saving lives, and she can't restrain me from living my dream," I said, feeling annoyed. "I will never let someone stop me from doing what I'm going to do."
He chuckled at my statement, "Alright, consider yourself a Hero high schooler." He stretched out his hand to me. I took his hand and shook it.
"Thank you so much Mr. Visible."
"It's no problem." He replied.
