"USE YOUR FIRE SHOUTO."

Shouto was breathing hard but he stood his ground in resistance.

"Have it your way." Burning infernos came towards Shouto who had to force every last amount of energy within him to create an ice wall. Though the force of the attack was still too much to block. Shouto was flung back onto his back. He tasted iron in his mouth. He closed his eyes and focused on his breathing. When he opened his eyes again he looked up the man he called father. "We're not done until I say so." Shouto grunted and got back to his feet.

By the time they were done with their little training session Shouto was covered in frost and pain flowered all over his body. Shouto sat on the mat chugging down some water. When he was done he eyed his father who was standing in front of the door staring at him. "You'll never become the number one hero if you don't use your flames." Shouto looked off to the side and grunted. "You'll be attending UA tomorrow. You're only purpose there is to train and surpass everyone there. You're not there to make friends and you certainly don't have time to do so anyways." Shouto still refused to make eye contact. "Know your place and don't over step the boundaries." And with that Endeavour walked out the room leaving Shouto there to think in solitude. Tomorrow I start school.. I wonder if I'll meet my soulmates... Sighing he stood up and stared up at the ceiling. Even if I did I could never confront them... someone like me... I wouldn't.. Sighing again in frustration he walked towards the entrance of the training room. He opened the sliding door to meet Fuyumi who was holding a first aid kit.


"Can I clean you up Shouto."


"Ok." came the short reply.

Shouto sat down on the floor embracing the silence between them as Fuyumi patched him here and there. Though the silence was broken when Fuyumi asked if he can take off his shirt. Shouto looked away from her in slight refusal.


"Shouto.. I can't finish patching you up if you don't." Fuyumi reasoned. After a beat of silence Shouto gave in to her demand. "Thank you."


Fuyumi observed Shouto's torso. She noticed a bruise here and there but what caught her attention the most was gauze wrapped around Shouto's left arm. She scrunch her face in pain. She knew full well what he's doing to himself.. But she couldn't bring herself to confront him. If she could she would. She didn't know what she would say. All I can do are treat his wounds from father's training.. As she applied cream to burns she couldn't help but be captivated by her brother's soulmarks. When she finished up her work she couldn't help but comment "You know your soulmarks are really beautiful right?" They really are beautiful. A bright nasturtium, soothing blue lilac, Shouto's own sakura, and a fragile green hydrangea. Shouto grunted, clearly he didn't want to talk about it.


Shouto slowly got up. "If you're done I'm going to my room now."


"Shouto." Said boy stopped mid step standing facing away from his sister. "If you were to find your soulmates at UA.. Would you confront them?" Fuyumi stared at her brother's back, awaiting for an answer.

"..No. I wouldn't."


"But why? Shouto I think it would be good for you if you did.." If you did... You'd have someone to be there for you.. Someone for you.. Someone to heal your pain. Fuyumi was distant from her brother but that didn't stop her being concern for her brother.
