A Hero's Heart

Chapter Three - One More Run In and Canon Starts

I was again walking down the street. Luckily I had immediately lost Dabi. It didn't take me all that long to reach my brothers daycare. I walked in, checked him out. Then came face to face with the brother. His shortly cut whitish blue hair, like my own just mine reached my mid calves and was pulled up into a braid, and his bright ruby red eyes stared up into my golden eyes. He then broke out into a smile. "Mimi!" He cheered in his small three year old voice. I just smiled and kneeled down.
"Hi Jun! Come on we gotta run to the store real quick." He nodded then we left.

It didn't really take long to reach the store. I still held Jun, now he rested on my left hip, his legs wrapped around my torso and arms around my neck. I had my left arm wrapped around his side as I look at the medical supplies. At the ground by my feet was a basket full off some milk, eggs, and other good items we ran out off. Jun was just staring at what I was doing. He was quite, he was always quite when with me. I looked through the medical stuff. Then I heard someone come in, my anxiety instantly spiked up, luckily I knew how to hide it and no one noticed. It was Chisaki Kai, better known as Overhaul. Sighing and opting to pretend I didn't know him, despite him being right there, I continued to look at the supplies. Finding the brands I wanted for disinfectants I grabbed them. Then moving down a bit more I found the burn creams.

I continued to search through them, looking at the brands, ingredients, and prices until I found the perfect one. Humming I began to look at the bandaids. Repeating the process. After a while I had all the basics except for the wraps. Which where over by Overhaul, I had somehow succeeded in avoiding him. Sighing I turned and walked over. Setting Jun down and grabbing his hand, I also grabbed the basket. "Umm, sorry. Excuse me." He looked at me, then Jun who just latched himself onto my leg, but stepped aside with a small fake smile.
"Oh. Sorry ma'am." I gave him a short nervous smile.
"N-no problem sir. Are you also looking for wraps? You've been here a while." What am I thinking.
"Ah, yes. My daughter is quite clumsy. What about you? Is you..." he glanced at my brother. Why does he look disgusted? My hand absentmindedly landed on my brother head. "...son clumsy as well?" I laughed nervously.
"Oh, Jun's not my son. He's my little brother. And no, my friend is, and I find it better to have the supplies needed just in case. In our day and age you never know when you might be injured or find someone injured." What are you thinking Emiko! I internally scolded me. But it's rude not to reply.
"True. True." I looked up. Looking at the brands and prices. Then I found the type I needed. Right at the top. Great. I wasn't all that tall right now, still growing, I was only five four. I glared. I could use my quirk. I sighed. But that's illegal... Overhaul seemed to notice it. He grabbed the brand and handed it to me. "Here." I jumped slightly.
"O-oh. Thank you mister."
"Chisaki Kai. What's your name ma'am." I blinked and reluctantly, thank goodness he didn't notice my reluctance, grabbed the box of wraps.
"Ito. Ito Emiko. This is Ito Jun." I said, again reluctantly. What. An. Idiot. I hummed. "Excuse me. I need to get going." With that I left.

It's been a year since then. I was currently running, with Jun in my arms, to his daycare. Quickly I dropped his off, handed the teacher his bag and lunch, then again took off in a dead sprint to my middle school. On the way I spotted Zuku fanboying. Sighing I grabbed onto his hand. "Let's go Zuku! We'll be late!" My hair was pulled back into its normal braid. Now my hair reaches the ground when pulled back. Which was a pain. I completely ignored Mt. Lady, more concentrated on school. It didn't take us long to reach school. He had been right in front of the crate and was wrighting notes.
