'I know it's cold but you have to work with me here.'
'Okay...' Kai mumbled softly.
He was resting in an ice bath. It was supposed to numb him. It worked, but it still kinda stung. Poltergeist squeezed a bit of shampoo on his hand and started washing out some of the blood that got in his hair thanks to the wind pressure. 'Just relax okay?'
'Okay.'
'Hold your breath, and shut your eyes.' He instructed. Kai did as he was told and nodded when he was ready. Poltergeist hummed and dunked Kai under the water. He washed out the shampoo and conditioner and then brought him back up.
Kai gasped, that was really, really cold. 'You okay?'
'Cold.' He shivered.
'I know, but you have to work with me.'
'I'm trying...'
'I know you are. Now... I'm not entirely sure if this makes you feel any better, but I think you did amazing today.'
Kai managed to look back at him. 'You do?'
'Of course, the fact you didn't shatter every bone in your arm doing that? It was incredible.' Poltergeist complemented. Using the little shower thing to scrub off the blood on his arms and legs.
'Are you sure you should be in here? It's really cold beside you're still wearing all your clothes. What if you get sick?'
Poltergeist was in the bath with him to make it easier on them both. 'Eh, I like the cold.'
Kai nodded, 'Okay.'
'Alright.' Poltergeist picked Kai up (Who was slowly falling asleep) out of the bath and set him down, then wrapped a towel around him. 'Stay right here, I'm gonna go get you some clean clothes.'
Kai nodded and stay put as Poltergeist left the room. He looked around, the room was so pretty. Made sense, Poltergesit did have an eye for color theory. The walls were a sandy yellow with pale blue accents. There were plants on the shelves and spare towels in the cabinet.
'Hey, kid. I'm back.' He handed him a black short-sleeved shirt, black shorts, and the gloves that blocked his quirk. 'You need help getting dressed?'
'Mhm.'
'Alright.' Poltergeist helped get Kai's shirt on, then the shorts, and finally the gloves. He stood up and grabbed the bandages. 'Hold still.'
He did as he was told and let Poltergeist bandage his arms and legs. 'Too tight?'
'Mn mn.' Kai shook his head.
'Okay, good.' Poltergeist picked him up and brought him to the main lobby. He set him down on the couch and told him to wait. He was going to get him something to eat.
The TV was on. There was a strange man on the screen, he was so... Fire-y. 'And yet again Pro Hero: Endeavor has saved the day! Using those incredible flames of his he easily took down the villain!' The lady on TV said.
'What's a villain?'
'A villain is someone who does bad things. Very bad things.' Poltergeist explained, handing Kai the plate of Rice and Takoyaki.
'So like us?' Kai asked. 'Am I a villain?'
