TITLE: Training III
Time: 18:42
"I'm home," Sora said while entering the house.
Meow… Meow… A black cat appeared in front of him. Sora smiled brightly as he picked up the cat while saying "oh Mochi-san, did you miss me?"
Mochi was the cat Sora found one day when he was out with his parents. Sora was 5 at the time and he saw the cat in an alley. It had a wound on its leg. He asked his parents if he could keep it and they gladly accepted. Sora who was a cat lover was very happy and named the black cat Mochi. Now, he had an excuse if he came late he could shamelessly say "a black cat crossed my path and so I had to go the long way" truly a master (second only to Kakashi)
He walked with Mochi in his arms towards the kitchen and greeted his mom. Aiko smiled as she said "go take a bath so we can have dinner. While you're at it, bathe Mochi" the cat hearing this, tried escaping Sora's hold but it was of no use.
He looked up at Sora and put on his puppy dog eyes before releasing a meow but all he was met with was a creepy smile on Sora's face as he said "we're in this together, friend" and headed to the bathroom.
------------
Sora soon came down, scratches all over his face and an exhausted look while he held Mochi, who had an annoyed look on.
Sora then sat at the table with his mom and dad. Shiro wanted to ask what happened but he noticed Sora looking at him as though saying 'don't ask'
With that, they began eating. Aiko smiled as she asked "how was school today Sora? Made any new friends?"
"School was exhausting and no, it was just the first day" Sora replied.
They continued discussing other things before Aiko asked "oh the dojo, did you like it?"
Sora gulped when he heard this, beads of sweat were on his face though an A.C was directly behind him. He then said nervously "yeah… it was…fine"
Aiko didn't fail to notice this and as she asked "Is something wrong dear?" "n-no, n-nothing." He stuttered.
Aiko thought for a while and then said with a smile "what did you do this time Sora?"
To the naked eye, it seemed like a harmless smile but Shiro and Sora knew that smile all too well. Shiro already figured out what happened and he put his hand as though he was praying as he thought 'rest in peace son'
Sora noticed this and he was flabbergasted, he thought 'Wtf dad, how could you forsake your own son so fast? Damn after they'll say there's nothing more important than family. If only fast and furious was in this world, Dom will have thought him a lesson'
Sora mustered all his courage as he said to her "mom, I left the dojo" Aiko kept her smile as she asked, "why?"
"Well while training, I noticed I could pick up pretty much anything they said and do it right, so why waste money to learn when I can teach myself?"
Aiko sighed as she said "I was expecting this. Thank goodness I only paid for 1 year" Sora looked at her accepting this very easily and was shocked as he thought 'damn, how rich are these people? If it was in my past life… I'll be in a construction company right now'
After a while, dinner was over. Shiro and his wife headed to the room while Sora headed outside.
Stranding on the lawn, he looked around as he thought 'okay now that I'm 6 and I've learned some martial arts, let's begin the quirk training.' He then sighed as he continued his inner monologue 'my quirk is air manipulation which allows me to do basically anything with air. So what do I know? I can move with the air, solidify air, create air, use air to move things, can create things with air, and much other stuff. Welp so what am I going to train?' He scratched the back of his head as he sat in a meditative position and began thinking.
After a while, he was done and thought 'okay, here's the plan. Firstly, I should increase my control over the air. It still takes a while for me to command the air and even shape it so I should focus on making it part of me, so I can use it instinctively. Secondly, I should make the solidification harder. I should be able to make it as hard as diamond and also change its hardness anyhow I wish. I should also increase the power of the quirk. I need to make my 100% punch be as strong as all might's united states of smash.'
He paused and thought of the battle against Hiro 'I'm able to surround my arm with air, why don't I surround myself with air thus keeping myself warm and I'll always have a barrier around me. I should make the 'skin' covering me be very durable. With this, no one will be able to kill me in my sleep. Also, I should use this shield as a vacuum so fire attacks will be useless against me. Most importantly, I should find a martial arts that fits my style, something like the gentle fist, wonder what it was in real life.'
'For the physical training. I should just apply air pressure on myself when I'm doing pushups and the likes. I should also increase drag force when I'm running so my real speed should be like Lee though that'll be hard without my quirk.'
'But damn, this sounds like much work. Yeah, no way I'm doing all this. The martial arts and skin is a must have as it'll be helpful and make me look cool but the rest meh, I ain't sure I can do all that. I don't really have that much free time, I have to watch anime, play games, go to school, eat, sleep, there's really no time for excessive training. Welp, not my fault, we can only blame time for being so scarce'
With that, he started trying various things but he didn't really achieve anything great as most of his techniques need someone to test it on. But they were some things he knew he'll never know whether they work or not, like removing oxygen from someone, turning someone to air, and causing someone to implode. He knew he could only use this on a Nomu if dares to do that.
After a while, he was completely drained and he headed back to his room while noting some things in his head.
