Chapter 13
Mugen Secret
Come three days after the training and the sweat reward with passable chocolate by Kiralexia and Eri, and now Kiralexia was getting ready to meet up with Toga at the Mugen tree. He had backed up a small backpack that he made right then and there with small things, books, coloring pencils, and some other items. Once he had finished and put it on his back he looked back to see Eri staring at him curiously. He looked back at the door then to her and sighed. He leaned down to see her eye to eye before speaking.
"Are you certain you want to do this? You know who I'm meeting isn't the, most stable person."
"Yes I wanna see her in person and nothing will deter me."
"Alright but remember, mention this to no one, especially Aizawa. Now then let's get going and stay close Little Horn." Kiralexia said with a sigh getting up and holding Eri's hand close to his.
As they exit the building they looked up to see a morning light around them. The cold autumn breeze blew across there faces and the leaves had begun to fall off more. Some trees had no leaves while others held some left on them. Kiralexia took a deep breath in before walking into the nearby woods. As the two walked through, hearing the sounds of leaves, birds, and the wind itself Kiralexia looked around him in worry.
He was making sure no one was following the two of them. He couldn't be to safe due to there being a villain inside of UA. Once they went towards the giant Mugen Tree where he once resided he saw Toga looking up at the tree in awe. Perhaps it was the constant blooming it was in or the fact that it was the only tree with Sakura blooming on it. She heard Kiralexia call to her a little and she turned around. She smiled and was about to hug right until she saw the little girl huddled behind Kiralexia's right leg.
Eri looked up at her with a bit of nervousness in her eyes, and Toga simple looked confused. She then looked right up to Kiralexia with disappointment in her eyes. Kiralexia chuckled a little looking down at Eri a little nervous at the situation.
"I thought you said this was gonna be a private meet up?" Toga said a little defiant on what's happening. In turn Kiralexia leaned down to Eri, picked her up under her arms and pointed her right in front of Toga.
"Tell her no, go ahead, I'll wait." Kiralexia responded instantly to Toga.
Toga looked at Eri squinting her eyes a little as she stared her down. Eri had a very small bead of sweat fall off her cheek as she looked back nervously. She had a tiny little winter beanie with a flower on the front and vines flowing around the rest. Her dress had long sleeves and was a nice warm orange with a yellow overdress. She even had a little messenger back on her side that held art supplies for the day. Toga gave her a look down and tried to tell her no to being hear. That is until Eri gave a cute concerned looked down to Toga which caused her heart to explode a little. She held her chest for a moment before looking at Kiralexia and gave a response.
"Alright fair enough it's hard tell her no. she can stay but she better not tell anyone of this. Also where did she get that hat, it looks nice."
"She already promised before coming over. Also I dunno she just borrowed one from one of the 1-A girls. now come let's just sit down at that tree and relax for now." Kiralexia said putting Eri down and walking to the Mugen Tree.
He looked over where he once sat and saw the indent was still on it and grass only barely grew over it. Vines have replaced where his body was covered and now made a strange dangling branch on it. He grabbed it and pushed it back into the bark of the tree. He then sat down and felt his butt immediately sink back into it's position. His mind went blank for a moment as he remembered his time under the tree. Dark and desolate, no one to talk to and no way to truly move off at all.
Toga then sat right next to him and Eri sat down nearby pulling out art supplies and beginning to draw. Kiralexia looked at her and smiled a little. He may have failed once but with her, there would be no failure this time. Toga looked at her and smiled as she looked over at Kiralexia looking warmly at her.
"I see you've taken another child as your own?"
"Sort of after failing with you I'm not certain I am ready to be a father again. Plus with Little Horn I see her as something else instead of my own daughter. And then there's Aizawa who I think has taken that place of a father for her or maybe Midoriya."
"Okay well she's very lovely and quite kind to you."
"First time she saw me she looked nervous as I expected, but then turned to being very friendly with me. I think with how similar our old days where we connect much more. Maybe I'm a big brother I honestly don't know anymore."
"Wait you told her about your beginning years?"
"Bit's not all, she's not ready yet. Sure she's suffered like I, but she was an actual kid, I was built to be an adult and to last. I swear if those… Pricks at I-Island even think about touching her, I'm burning every bit of science there to the ground." Kiralexia said through searing teeth.
Toga looked down and sighed a little. She to only knows a fraction of what he'd been through. The most she knows is that Kiralexia was treated like he was, a tool for a means to an end. The details are vague but she's never pushed to know more. It must've hurt to relive such memories so she put her hand on Kiralexia's knee before beginning to try and comfort him.
"I don't think they'll do that. they're more interested with machines not living things. Plus how many of your days are even alive anymore, 1, 3? I highly doubt any are alive anymore so don't worry about it."
"I know it's just, I don't want her to experience that again. I went through hell as well as she, neither of us deserve that again. Plus those guys, actually it is a dumb fear. I dunno I guess I've just been worried for nothing."
"Well that's fine, it means you care about her safety like you did with me."
"Ya, anyways enough of that tell me any friends in this League you're in?"
"Well there is Twice, he's nice and very sweet to hang around with. Then there's Dabi, though he doesn't consider me a friend."
"And the leader?"
"He's, alright honestly. Though just like Dabi I don't think he considers me a friend."
"Well that's good you at least aren't alone in the League. Ugh man I've been in one hell of a week. Training the student's ain't easy."
"What's Midoriya like? I wanna know."
"Calm yourself mam, as for him, he's alright. Gentle heart, hard fighter. Though a strange thing did happen I'd say two days ago."
"What happened is he hurt?"
"No, well yes but no not anymore. I had set up that big dome you saw a few times in the Militia to train class 1-A and 1-B together for well how we trained. Long story short when he faced sim me, his arms began to shimmer with a black aura. It was weird and now I fear his OTHER abilities will activate." Kiralexia realized what he said and looked back at Toga who looked entranced at it. "Don't tell anyone that please?"
"Lips sealed."
"Good, now let's just enjoy this morning breeze for a little bit." Kiralexia said putting his head back and closing his eyes.
Toga agreed and closed her eyes as well. She leaned on Kiralexia as the two just enjoyed the whether. It had been to long since they've been like this so they were enjoying it as much as possible. The wind felt nice on Kiralexia's body as he sat there listening to the birds.
A few moments passed and now Toga was allowing Eri to help with her hair. Kiralexia stayed on the tree but was given a tiny dark pink bow on the tip on his left horn. He didn't mind it and instead lift it there only looking at Toga and Eri talking to one another. They were talking about Midoriya and how cool he was which he figure was what they were talking about. Ah well at least the two where getting along well. Kiralexia closed his eyes and began to hum. It was the lullaby song he sang weeks ago when he first got here and it was the same verse as before only this time he continued.
"For if I stayed another day I fear I'd never leave here. Then this world fall to anarchy a fate I can't live. Forgive me little one for leaving so early now. I swear to gods on high thrones we will meet again." He sang in a low soothing voice. Toga overheard and began to sing as well.
"When we see once more I hope you remember me. Tears will flow, voices crack at are embrace. Fear not for the night will keep you safe from the bright light. Yet fear not for the daylight, for it will sooth your pain." Toga sang with a slightly off key tone but overall just as beautiful. Kiralexia heard it and sang a new verse.
"Day and Night, Dark and Light, both appose the other one. One day soon both will live in harmony. Tis the day when light and dark are in unison, will be the day for you and me. Good and bad will fade in time and life returns to me. Sleep little one for the day slowly comes, and I will leave you soon. Yet protect you I shall do, from evil blight incoming. Forgive and forget the pain we will meet again." Kiralexia and Toga than began to sing in unison on the final verse of the song. "We will meet, again." Kiralexia let out a long sigh looking at Toga who simply looked back as if she saw a ghost once more.
"I haven't heard that song in so long. Now it makes so much more sense."
'Hey you changed some of the lines."
"Well I just felt like it, also I just realized that some of those lines need work."
"Well I still find it beautiful. You sang it to me when I couldn't sleep."
"I remember that, I also remember you just walking into my room late at night so I could read you a story or sing to you. Do you remember those stories?"
"I'm not sure, only bits I remember for sure but some are fuzzier."
"Figured if you didn't remember me fully then why-wait. Do you remember Shadowsmith." Kiralexia asked looking at Toga with a bit of worry. Toga squinted her eyes a little before answering.
"Uncle Shadowsmith? I actually do, a lot of him as well. He was calm and patient with me. He always comforted me when you weren't around. You're able to show your memories right?"
"Yes. And of course I shall show you him." Kiralexia said closing his eyes and showing off a projector.
The area around them shifted into the Militia's living room with a TV in front of them. On the couch was Shadowsmith with a bottle of beer in his hands. He was watching something and seemed a little disdained by it. However when he heard small feet walking towards him he looked over and saw a very small Toga looking up at him with a bit of worry on her face. His face instantly warmed up as he picked her up. He looked at her calmly and asked her what was wrong.
"I had a nightmare." She answered in a soft saddened voice.
"Ah another one. Let me guess, it was about your dad?"
"Y-yes he was hurt badly and I couldn't."
"Hey hey you don't have to explain it if you don't want to. How about you come with me and I'll read you a story?"
"Oh is it Tol, Tol, Tolkin?"
"Heh close, Tolkien, and yes it is his work. The Hobbit."
"Ooo will you sing Misty mountain this time?"
Hmm we will see little one. Now come on let's go and read you that story." Shadowsmith said in a soft spoken voice.
Small Toga then bounced as she followed him to her room. It was simple and didn't have much in it but did have a nice little look to it. She got in her bed and waited as Shadowsmith came in with a rather large book. The cover did say 'The Hobbit' and had the image of a dragon around gold in a circle. As he opened the book he began to read in a very smooth and narrator voice. Albeit well voiced and easy to tell which character he was voicing, such as Bilbo having that soft spoken but nervousness to him, and the dwarves being very distinct with one another. A good example is Dwalin having that thick Scottish accent and stern demeanor while Thorin sounded like a king in exile and Balin was wise and sounded well like an old man. Of course all the dwarves sounded Scottish yet he made all have a different level as to how they sounded. Kiralexia smirked at that and began to speak.
"Ah he always was a man who could do many voices. Though many were inspired by the movies, not a bad choice in my opinion."
"God I miss his reading he was really good at characters. Even the females were distinct and easy to tell, that's talent. I wonder how he's doing now?"
"I dunno hopefully well and comfortable now. Anyways let's move on." Kiralexia said flipping the scene to something else.
The scene showed a bright and old looking city at night. Buildings towered over people while arches were around many corners. Lamps and building lights covered the whole city blinding the night sky. Upon all of this was a hero wearing a simple toga and cape with a metal plate on his shoulder. He was on top of one such building looking around a little nervously. A whistle than came from behind him and he looked back quickly.
It was Shadowsmith spinning a pistol around his left hand a little looking at the hero with purple hewed eyes. Kiralexia then looked at this man above Shadowsmith crouching down with a twisted smile on his face. The hero backed up a little before looking back at him noticing he was almost off the ledge. Shadowsmith smirked at that and walked out of the shadows themselves towards the hero.
"Well, well, who do we have here? The, number 4th Pro Hero of Italy in itself? Am I correct brother?"
"Close he is 5th I believe his name is Volare In Alto."
"No No that's a famous local hero in Brig, no I think his name is Fulgur Dominus." Shadowsmith said looking back a little to the hero.
He began to sweat a little and tried to grab an item off his little belt. Once he grabbed it, he threw it at them and lightning sparked off it. Shadowsmith then lifted his pistol and fired it at the item. It broke immediately and the lightning passed Shadowsmith without harming him at all. Shadowsmith then scoffed a little before walking closer.
"ya'know heroes like you always think you're gods, but guess what you're not a god. I don't even think you're Jupiter, you are simply a eroe bastardo." He said in a pretty good Italian accent.
He then pointed his pistol right to the heroes head. He began to breath heavily and began to speak. It was Itailan and nearly impossible to figure out what he was saying. One thing stood out though a single scentence 'Brucerai cattivo!' He emphasized that last word and Shadowsmith seemed to look a little surprised at it. He then sneered and began to slowly pull the trigger on his pistol.
"I am no villain, I am a mercenary. And you are Morto, addio eroe." Shadowsmith said in Italian before looking back a Kiralexia.
He simply nodded and Shadowsmith smirked. He then fired his pistol right to the heroes head causing him to lean back and fall off the building. A loud crash came afterwards and Shadowsmith looked away slightly before walking away from the edge of the building. Kiralexia then jumped down and looked at Shadowsmith, both nodding at one another and getting off the roof.
Eri looked at this whole scenario with a confused look on her face. She didn't understand a bit of that strange language they spoke. Toga only understood very little of it while Kiralexia simply smirked a little. He knew that would happen and made a snarky remark in return to it.
"My brother was rather fluent in many languages, Italian was one of them. However he understood many more than he could speak them so true fluency was rather small but still mighty impressive."
"That's very cool. What does that mean?"
"It means he can speak more than one language in high skill and almost like it was his native one. Think a German being able to speak perfect Turkish with little hiccups."
"Oh that makes sense. Now show the next one I'm curious."
"Heh alright Little Horn if you wish." Kiralexia said with a small smile on his face.
The next scene was a gray sky above a city of concrete. Kiralexia, Shadowsmith, and Rose Dawn where walking together in a line to one another. They looked rather pleased and seemed rather jovial. Shadowsmith seemed to be talking about something but they didn't know what. It wasn't until Kiralexia had made a statement on the matter that Shadowsmith looked a bit flustered by it.
"Alright so maybe this world is better with these heroes what of it?! It's not entirely my fault that there bigots who don't understand how hard it is to survive now with these quirks around."
"I get what you're saying but calling that to all is a bit uncalled for."
"Try thinking otherwise when one such pro tried force converting you to a religion they didn't even believe in."
That again? Look he's long gone and now that dumb religious thing won't bother you anymore."
"Well not him at least. Still I smile at his death for now he got what he deserved."
"True that man now come on where are we eating Kiralexia? I'm hungry as hell."
"I'm thinking a sushi buffet. I do feel like eating sushi afterall."
"YOU can eat that strange stuff, I'll stick to the noodles and shrimp thanks." Shadowsmith responded pointing out at the air.
As the two walked the scene ended and Kiralexia began to tear up a little. He wiped it off quickly and looked over at Toga and Eri with a weak smile of his face. Clearly this was the end of the memories for now.
"I think that will be the last one of Shadowsmith. I'd like to do something else now."
"How about read us a story?" Toga suggested making Eri perk up in anticipation. Kiralexia chuckled a little before agreeing and pulling out a book from nowhere.
"Alright I'll read you a tale. Perhaps I shall read this." Kiralexia said pointing at the book.
The book had the words 'Of Men and Metal' showing the image of a gear in front of a mans right eye as the looked forwards. Toga and Eri both sat right in front of Kiralexia. He began to read the story and both the little girls looked mesmerized by his reading. The story was of a man escaping torment from a lab trying to make him a machine. His torture had left him with no right eyes and parts of his flesh and even organs where now machine parts.
Many of his parts where cogs and small wires spitting out steam. Thus in turn he takes on the name 'Clocks' for he always talked and ticked around as his cogs moved. The story is basically a comedic drama, having this man flee his captures many times and trying to figure out who he really was, for the experiment had broken his mind. Toga and Eri where surprisingly entranced by the story, probably because Kiralexia's voice was very soothing and spoke with power as he read.
While Kiralexia was reading his story, the rest of the faculty was busy with the new information on the Militia gathered. Now that they know it's name and many members titles, they have a good foot to lead them on. For starters, the Anti-Hero Militia it old, being older than when All Might showed up on the scene. The reason behind there creation was to deal with what many called 'false heroes'.
These 'false heroes' used there fame and power to control entire cities and even in a few rare occasions, countries. This was mainly a European and Middle Eastern threat in the beginning, whit Africa and the rest of the world close behind. In fact, Japan, mainly on Hokkaido and Kyushu, with a smaller, now more remembered movement on Shikoku. In response to this threat, these para Military organizations where created to stop them. At first it was mainly a multi ethnic force that had some of the best technology to counter these villains.
It was slow at first but they were able to take care of them to a degree. It wasn't until Shadowsmith, came in that things changed. They dealt with these heroes at a rapid pace thanks to his advancements in technology to the quirkless people inside. After most of these 'False Heroes' where dealt with, well it's not quite clear. Most simply say it was a gradual transition but they aren't clear when or even why they stuck around as that instead of disband afterwards. All they are certain of is why they were created but now they need to know why they went to Mercenary work instead.
As for the many people named well not much came from them. Ink Master is only recorded as an abused man serving the Militia as redemption for what he's done. Wings is said to have been in a gang before the Militia but it doesn't go farther than that. Rose Dawn is said to be a vigilante before joining for a wider degree to help people out. However when they went to Steelfist and Shadowsmith, things where a bit more clear.
It was true that Steelfist's name when Sim Kiralexia called him out was Rasputin. His full name was blocked but what he was before was clear as hell. He was an underground fighter who was always willing to fight a fair fight. He joined the Militia for both the money to help his small village expand a little and because they wanted to get more fights than from within the ring. Shadowsmith on the other hand was different.
It says he was Irish and his family was wealthy, to say the least, and his quirk was his name sake. He joined to prove himself but after that it gets fuzzy. It explains his actions in large battles many times in detail, and proved he was a really tactical man who could lead an army with ease. Hwoever when the final battle in the villain war came it simply says he returned home hiding from the big villain for months before coming out and, well that's where it ends.
Most of these sources are coming from Kiralexia himself and he's clearly hiding things from them. However he did link them videos on there battles and actions from history channels and they did detail the battles and clear up just how well organized they where. Yet after that nothing, so now they were furiously searching for more things on the Anti-Hero Militia. Most of them were asking on if they were a villain organization or a Pro Hero agency, where many of the members are now, and what happened to Kiralexia after the final engagement.
While everyone else where searching for information on the Militia as a whole, Midnight was searching for Shadowsmith. His name, his face, they way he fought, it reminded her of something to much. So most of her research was on him and so far one thing was worth the search. It was a small document detailing interactions with Vigilante heroes and there view on it. The document went into details on many quotes and reactions on there engagements and deals with them, even mentioning someone called Pop*Step. There is a quote from Shadowsmith saying that 'She's alright not to bad and has an honest heart to what she wants to do. For that I'd say she's more deserving of being a hero than most pros nowadays.' he had said during an interview.
Yet the image it was showing was her old master shaking hands with Shadowsmith while the one above was of an artist rendition of the Vigilantes with Shadowsmith and Kiralexia jumping high into the air. Yet the bottom image confused her, why was her master there? Better yet why was Shadowsmith in that image? This was getting interesting yet now not much could be found from THIS document so more searching awaited her.
As of now the most they've learned is that the Militia was a sort of Military Junta before becoming a Mercenary organization, combating False Heroes. Many members joined after the transition and Kiralexia was a key figure in making the Militia enter a golden age. However there was the Militia-Villain War that lasted an undetermined amount of time that left both sides in a weakened state. The high elites went into exiled hiding while the villains well we all know how THAT ended for them. Yet any further information is either censored by Kiralexia himself, or just not there making it damn impossible to study.
Yet the faculty would not give up that easily. They would continue and find more information. Yet these documents where becoming a dead end now. If they wanted to learn more about the Militia they'd need a live source. Yet who could they contact? Most members are well hidden or far away from them, while any hero here hardly even knows of them at all. Yet there was that one man that aided in that simulation device however there's the problem. No one knows if they're even alive anymore much less, here. If they could track him perhaps he'd actually give them something worth a damn.
Until then, they'd have to hunt down someone else for this information. While they are looking in these large piles of documents and historical videos play in the background, Aizawa stumbles a little trying to carry a stack of documents in one hand and coffee in the other. He groans a little almost spilling his coffee on himself. He looked up seeing All Might giving him a helping hand. Aizawa takes it and is helped up.
"Thanks, jeez this place used to be a lot quieter than before."
"Tell me about it, I swear we seem to be more like detectives than teachers." All Might retorts looking around him.
With the piles of paper, and coffee all around it definitely was looking like a detectives office over a schools one. Aizawa sighed as he was looking over this as well. Suddenly something came to his mind.
"Say have you seen Eri? I couldn't find her earlier."
"I heard she went with Kiralexia somewhere."
"What with him? I thought she'd wanna stay with Miriou or Midoriya not Kiralexia."
"Well remember Kiralexia is very comforting to her. I think I recall seeing her lay in his lap as he sang to her to sleep. The two are close you gotta give them that Aizawa."
"Sure but if I see her returned hurt, he's gonna pay." Aizawa said with hard eyes on his face.
Meanwhile Kiralexia had finished reading a sizable chunk of that book and now it helping Eri with her own hair. Braiding it into a ring on top of her head and putting flowers around them. As he braided her hair, he went down into on small line onto her back, putting a butterfly pin on the center of it. Once he finished he smiled as Eri looked at herself, very happy at the braiding. In turn Eri went to Kiralexia, who already grew out long black hair for her to braid.
Her braids were looser but with the assistance of Toga, where able to make the end of his hair braided and have a little bow on it. Kiralexia took a mirror and looked at himself. He was impressed with how well he looked with it, he especially liked the added bow. He felt, pretty and didn't have the heart to tell Eri other wise. However she was not done yet. She went right in front of Kiralexia he stared him down with a face of determination.
"Uh yes Little Horn?"
"You can grow a beard right?" Eri asked Kiralexia. Kiralexia then raised an eyebrow, looking up, before growing stubble's on his face.
"Does this answer your question?"
"Yes, now make it big and thick I wanna braid your beard."
"Why?"
"Because your hair would look naked without a braided beard." Eri said looking down a little. Kiralexia took that in and clenched his heart before leaning downwards a little.
"Eri you're to cute sometimes. Alright I'll allow it, but this time I'll ask for a dwarven braid."
"Well that's what I was gonna do, I saw your fantasy art on the small guys and noticed the braided beard and uh."
"Hehehehe it's alright I understand. Now come on, let's get this done Little Horn." Kiralexia said growing his beard out nice and thick.
It was size able but not to large and Eri immediately went to work. Toga joined in as Kiralexia made the little braid rings for the beard. He also made a picture for them to look over and thus they went. It was harder than they thought but still fun. It took them a little while to get the first metal ring on but after that it became a little easier. After around five to ten minutes of braiding with tiny sweat beads forming on Eri's brow, they had finished. It was simple and looked a little messy but overall pretty well.
Kiralexia looked at himself in the mirror and saw the three large braids in his beard, each on tipped with the metal cap that had the Celtic symbols on them. He then furrowed his brows a little before making a decision. He made his hair and beard gain a little bit of gray in them, now making him look wiser and older. A single streak of thick gray now went on his beard and both Eri and Toga where star struck.
Kiralexia looked rather good with the decent braids on his beard and hair, along with the bow on his horn and back of his hair. He stood up and smiled at himself a little. He then looked down to Eri and lifted her up with a deep belly chuckle coming from him.
"You certainly have great skill with this Little Horn. I look like a dwarven warrior ready to protect little ones like you." Kiralexia said with a smile on his face.
Eri was laughing a little at this whole thing as Kiralexia spun her around. Toga smiled a little as well before Kiralexia lifted her up to easily. Soon all three where spinning around laughing as Kiralexia was smiling at all of this. Eventually Kiralexia fell to the ground rolling a little still laughing alongside Toga and Eri. He got back up a little sitting up with a big smile on his face. He felt his beard and nodded a little. Toga looked at him with a smile before commenting on his look.
"You know hair looks a bit weird on you. I wouldn't be surprised if you loose it tomorrow."
"Nah I'll keep it for at least week maybe more. I feel rather pretty and handsome with this and I won't lose it." Kiralexia remarked feeling his beard still.
Eri seemed very happy at that and smiled with an open wide smile. Kiralexia picked her up again and looked at the time. It was rather late in the afternoon and he knew what that meant. Aizawa would not be happy with him being with Eri this long without telling them. He stood up and looked at Toga with a weak smile.
"It seems we must part ways now. Take care Nekoga, I hope we can see each other again soon."
"As do I dad. Take care." Toga said shaking the hand of Kiralexia.
They then hugged a little before leaving. Toga used the trees to conceal herself and jumped away. Kiralexia went into a different way as to not be seen with her. He still held onto Eri who was happily smiling as Kiralexia walked away. They dealt with Toga, now they had to deal with Aizawa not being happy.
When they exited the woods they looked over to the dorms to see Aizawa standing in front of the door giving them a hard stare. That wasn't good, he clearly wasn't happy at Kiralexia. Kiralexia sighed a little heavily before dropping Eri down yet still keeping her close to him. He then looked at Aizawa and awaited a statement.
"Where did you to go?"
"Under the Mugen tree where else?"
"and what did you do there?"
"Nothing much other than read her stories, show her memories of Shadowsmith and allowed her to braid my hair as you can see." Kiralexia said waving his hand under his chin. Aizawa raised and eyebrow before looking at Eri and talking to her.
"Is this true Eri?"
"Yep nothing more happened." Eri said quickly making Kiralexia relax a little.
Aizawa noticed that and quickly looked at him. Kiralexia stared him down hard, soon becoming a stare off. Aizawa eventually caved and sighed before looking away back to Eri. Kiralexia knew what that meant, a talk alone and he didn't feel like bothering it. So he would allow her to let him go as he walked back inside. Before he opened the door he looked over at Aizawa and spoke.
"If you need me I'll be in my room playing that Sci-Fi RTS." Kiralexia said darting his eyes quickly before opening the door.
Aizawa then bent down to one knee and looked at Eri. She walked up to him and looked a little nervous but not to much. Aizawa sighed quickly before talking to her.
'Are you sure that's all that happened there?"
"Yes I'm sure." Eri said with a weak smile. Aizawa knew she was holding something back so he pulled out a small candy bar and waved it in front of her.
"I'll give you this if you tell the truth." Aizawa said as Eri quickly snatched it.
"Okay Kiri, he was hanging out with Toga." Aizawa looked a little upset at that statement before Eri continued. "But she was really nice and allowed me to do her hair. She didn't do anything to me so it's all fine." Eri said quickly looking a little nervous.
Aizawa closed his eyes thinking for a second. Of course he decided to hangout with her in secret. However if what Eri said was true than perhaps it wasn't so bad. Yet if this were to happen again, than that would mean consequences for Kiralexia himself. After thinking about it he opened his eyes and looked at Eri warmly.
"Alright I won't tell anyone of this yet. However if he does this again we may have to do something to punish him lying to us. Now go inside Eri and take care." Aizawa said patting her back a little.
Once inside she looked at Kiralexia who was simply looking at the to from inside. She had turned to her raising an eyebrow. Something about didn't sit right for him and he decided to ask her something.
"Eri did you tell Aizawa about the truth?"
'Nope. Bye Kiri have a good evening." Eri said cheerfully caring a candy bar.
Well she was obviously lying but this was Eri. He just didn't have the heart to tell her otherwise. So he would let it go for now, he just knew this would lead to danger later on if she revealed more. He sighed as he went to the elevator to go to the roof. As he did he smiled at his day with his daughter. He would hope the two could meet up again soon. However as he thought of this a knew person entered his mind.
