It has been a week since I started my training with Mr. Zenitsu. School like usual is still incredibly boring. I mean I'm in a class meant for four year olds, I was in high school in my past life, everything in that class is so easy I don't even think about it.
One good thing came from that though. Since my grades are excellent, mom never bothered me with studying or anything like that.
Now I'm heading back home with mom after school
"Mom, what do we have for dinner tonight?" -Aska
"I don't know yet, I'll decide when we get home" -mom
Mom and I chatted for a bit while she was driving back home.
When we got home there was a black car waiting in the driveway of our house.
When mom parked next to them, the front two doors of the car opened. From the driver seat, came out a middle aged man in a driver outfit, and from the passenger seat came out a middle aged woman with black hair, it was the doctor I registered my quirk with.
When I saw that I got defensive.
'What the hell? Why is she here, does mom know they were coming' thought Ask as he looked at his mom.
'Nope, judging from her confused look, she has no idea why they're here'
"Don't be so defensive young man" came a much older voice from the back seat.
As the person inside the car spoke, the driver had already gotten to the car door and opened it for whoever's inside to step out.
"My name is Tahara Mieko, I'm the head of the Public Safety Commission" said the older woman as she stood in front of me.
(A/N: I couldn't find the actual name of the previous head of the committee. I wanted the one before the committee head in the canon, so I just went with a random name)
'The safety committee, why are they here, and why is the doctor here' thought Aska as he glanced at the doctor standing to the side.
"It seems you have questions, why not talk about it inside" said the committee head
"I would rather know why you're hear first before we do anything else" this time it was mom who answered.
"My apologies, I didn't mean to bother you. What I'm here for is help your son to grow, to sponsor your son into becoming a great hero" said the committee head
"Sponsor my son?" -mom
"Yes, if you don't mind we could talk about this else where, if you don't feel comfortable with us going inside your house, we could go to my office it's not that far from here" said the committee head
"There is no need, I want to know what you mean by sponsoring my son" -mom said with a cold voice, as she grabbed my hand and pulled me slightly closer to her.
'Woah, I never new that my cheerful mom could sound like that' -thought Aska
Noticing my mom's reaction the committee head said "No need to be alarmed ma'am, let me explain. We at the Public Safety Commission make sure that heroes are abiding the law, and not abusing their power. But for us to do that we need enforcement officers, but not just any enforcement officers, we need ones that could stand against people, who like heroes, had gone through professional training in combat"
"What does that have to do with my son?" -mom
"We want to sponsor him to be said enforcement officer in the future" -committee head
"I can't make that decision for him, and he is too young to make that decision for himself" -mom
"Ma'am rest assured, it's not like we will take him away from you. We will provide your family with resources to make sure he grows up without any issues, we will even grant him access to our training facilities with the best instructors there are to teach him everything" - committee head
"Even if, I still need to talk to his father about this" -mom
"No problems, I only came today to let you know about this career path" she then gets down to eye level with me and with a smile says "you told you're counselors at school that you want to be a hero, this way you could be a great hero, just let me help you be a hero"
I didn't want to answer her, so I just pretended to be a bit scared and hid half of my face behind mom while looking at her
She just smiled as she got up and said us "Thank you for giving me some of you're time, I'll come visits again next week" after saying that she got in the car, as did the doctor, then the driver, and then they left.
'Help me be a hero my ass, that woman picked every word she said carefully. She just wants me to be their hunting dog'
Seeing my serious face mom, said "don't worry honey, it's your choice, so don't feel pressured"
"Thanks mom, I'll be ok" -Aska
Later that evening, while eating dinner
"Listen Aska, you don't have to listen to that woman. You do what you want to do. If you want to be a hero, then follow your dream" -dad
"I know dad, I don't think I'll join her or anything" -Aska
"Anyway, how's you're training with Mr. Zenitsu going?" -mom
"I haven't gotten over my lack of concentration yet" -Aska
"It's ok, it was the same for me too, I couldn't tell how to discharge the electricity inside my body correctly, until I was seven or eight" -dad
After some more chatting and catching up on my training, we called it a night.
[Next Day | After school]
"Try concentrating again Aska" - Mr. Zenitsu
"Yes, sir!" -Aska
"Aska, you're losing focus again, focus harder" -Mr. Zenitsu
"I understand!" -Aska
'I've been meditating for so long, and I'm yet to be able to move with my energy flowing naturally' Aska was frustrated at his lack of improvement.
"Aska, how about we do this. Let's go far inside for a bit. Oh, if you don't mind could get a laptop or a tablet to watch a video on?" -Mr. Zenitsu
"Sure" -Aska
After I brought my mom's laptop, Mr. Zenitsu, pulled up videos of lightning strikes in slow motion.
After watching a couple of those for about 10 minutes, I finally realized. Lightning isn't clean cut, it's rigged, with, sharp turns, and it tends to spread wider as it goes.
seeing my understanding look, "Ok let's get back to training" - Mr. Zenitsu
After going back to training, I imagined the lightning moving inside my body, as it was moving in the video.
"I think I can move now" -Aska
"Really, that quick? Go for it then" said Mr. Zenitsu as he took a couple of steps back.
'Holy crap it works' -Aska
"It looks like you finally can keep your energy in check when moving around" -Mr. Zenitsu said and then added "well, it looks like it's time to end it for today, see you tomorrow Aska"
"Good night to you too Mr. Zenitsu" -Aska said excitedly
'Finally I can move the energy inside my body without it shooting out!'
[1 Week Later]
The day the hero committee head was coming, dad called off work, and stayed home all day. When they came, dad talked to them.
They tried to persuade dad, even offering large amounts of money, But dad's job payed him really well, so he refused saying I will be a hero regardless, and he would rather I grow up naturally than be forced to train like a soldier.
They tried to convince him, but he made it clear that we are not interested.
———————————————
Training with Mr. Zenitsu continued on for many months, until it was summer break.
Mom wanted me to do something fun during the summer and Mr. Zenitsu recommended swimming classes. He said it has many benefits, like full body workout, and improving my lung capacity.
Mom thought it was a great idea, so I will spend my summer break going to swimming classes. But I won't stop my training with Mr. Zenitsu.
It was now my June 1st, I'm five years now and my grandparents whine I haven't seen in a year, have visited us again.
We had the usual party, and at the end, I got gifts, my grandma pulled my gift box out of thin air again, so I decided to ask her, what was her quirk.
"Grandma, what is your quirk?"
"Ohh~ you wanna know now, do you?"
"Please, I've seen you use it before, I could tell it's some kind of storage, but how does it work?"
"Well my quirk is storage, I can store anything through my left hand, and take it out with my right"
"Store it where exactly?"
"Not sure, but I do know that I can only store non living things in a space around 20 cubic feet, and whatever I put in there stays the same no matter how long it stays in"
'Holly crap, that's OP as hell. It's not combat oriented, but she could smuggle anything from one country to the next, and there are many other things she could do' Aska thought to himself with a serious face
Seeing Aska's thinking face grandma laughed "you're thinking too much about my quirk Aska, why not tell me about your quirk training?"
"Huh? You know?" -Aska
"Of course I know, maybe I don't visit a lot, but your grandpa and I check on you daily from your parents" -grandma
"Well, I've been trying for some time now but I haven't learned anything cool yet" -Aska
"I'll give you and advice Aska, focus on control, I know you hear this a lot, but as you grow you will produce more electricity, which will be harder to control" -grandma
"Don't worry grandma I'll keep up with my training" -Aska
"Good, I also hear your grades are excellent, so keep it up"- grandma said with with a big smile on her face.
After the party was over my grandparents stayed the night in the guest room
