The Hidden Quest
While Toru was still hugging me, I couldn't help but give her head pats, mainly because of my earlier slightly depressing thoughts, but also because I genuinely just wanted to give this girl affection. I mean, who hasn't wanted to give one of those traumatized students a hug or something, and maybe punt Mineta.
How the fuck did that little fucker even get into high school though, because you'd think with his antics he would've been imprisoned or killed by someone by at least middle school, right? And I get it, in a sense he is that comic relief character along with Denki, but seriously how the hell did he get into UA? Surely Nezu did some background checks on the students before they were enrolled, right, because he is just that paranoid?
Oh, fuck he didn't did he? God dammit, no wonder they managed to get a traitor into UA, I should probably make sure to fix that in the future. Maybe if I do, I'll even manage to get some of the people from class 1-B that actually deserved to be in 1-A into the right places. 'Cause honestly, some of the quirks and people from 1-B definitely deserved to be in the main cast-
Fuck, almost went on another rant, this time about class 1-B, well at least I'm getting better at stopping my rants, I think, let's just get back to the main event me still giving little Toru head pats. You'd think that Toru would act more like a golden retriever in moments like this, being all excited and stuff, but no, right now she is just loving the head pats and leaning into my hand for more like a cat would. Hell, I think I even saw cat ears and a tail on her for a split second.
"Um, excuse me?" said Toru's mother, who seems to have something on her mind.
'Shit, I got so caught up in giving Toru affection that I forgot her mother was here!' I quickly stopped petting Toru and focused on her mother, much to the dismay of Toru.
"Yes ma'am?" I said, trying to sound as respectful as possible, almost like how a guy would act while meeting his girlfriend's parents.
"My names Sora Hagakure, and does your quirk also allow you to see me?" she asked me, trying to figure out the limits of my 'quirk'.
'Shit, unlike Toru I have no idea how her mother looks, fuck how do I bull shit my way out of this?!' I mentally screamed, trying to figure out how the hell not to called on my bullshit. I went over all my current quirks trying to figure out if one of them could help me, which is when I remembered a certain Conduit.
'What if I tried using something similar to Cole's Radar Pulse with Lightning Body, if that theory about Toru's quirk basically being an energy that reflects light is true then that might work, or this might hurt a lot'
I started to focus Lightning Body on turning two parts of myself into electricity, but this time I wasn't going to transform my arms or legs, it would be more internal. This time, I would be trying to turn my eyes and brain into electricity in an attempt to at least see a general outline of Toru's mom.
To them, my eyes suddenly started to glow an almost electrical red, which showed that I was either reaching a limit, or was re-using my 'quirk'. They may have thought something like that, but for me, it was completely different, for me everything started to move at a snail's pace. Turns out when the description of Lightning Body said faster and stronger, it meant on every scale.
By turning my brain into lighting, I made its ability to process information and recall information (super memory) multiply by several times. And, by turning my eyes into lightning, I increased their capabilities of moving around and gathering information so much that time felt like it slowed down. But time didn't slow down at all, instead my eyes and brain were moving too fast, hell thanks to my increased memory I could even remember things I forg-
'Who the hell is that woman?' Before I could finish my previous thoughts, I remembered something that I didn't even know that I forgot about. It was a giant woman with red eyes, white hair, and caramel skin sitting on a throne, but anything more detailed than that was blurry at best. She seemed to have been telling me something, but the memory is fuzzy, almost like it was erased or a dream.
But there was one thing that I did know about this woman from this memory, even if I couldn't remember her properly, she was important to me somehow. I don't know why exactly she was important, but when I thought about her, it almost felt like what I've heard other people describe as the warmth of a mother. She made me feel at home, even when I couldn't fully remember her face.
Before I could think more about who that woman was, I started to feel like my head was burning from the inside out. It seems that using Lightning Body in this way has limits, and I had officially reached that limit when I tried remembering those 'forgotten' memories. Quickly, I turned off my quirk, which made time pass around me more naturally but also left me hunched over in pain and tightly closing my eyes.
"Ah, what's wrong, Ina?!" Toru almost screamed when she saw that I was in pain, she even called me by my 'given name' which showed just how much she's started caring about me in the short time we've met.
'If my eyes didn't hurt so much right now, I'd probably give Toru a hug to ease her worries.' Luckily I didn't stay in that slowed perception state for too long, so my eyes only feel like I put some bad eye drop fluid in them, if I did stay that way for even a second longer there's a chance that I could've lost my eyesight.
"It's okay Toru, I just over-used my quirk, that's all." I said in the best reassuring voice that I could at the time in an attempt to ease some of her worries.
"So that's what happens when you over-use your quirk." Toru's mom said in a way that sounded like a student finally figuring out how to work a problem. It seems that earlier she was still unsure if my 'quirk' really did what I said it did for some reason, and my current state of quirk over-use was the final nail in the coffin to prove I wasn't lying.
'Seriously, is the quirk I bullshitted about so rare that she literally needed to see me in pain to figure out I wasn't lying? No wonder she was so quiet earlier, she was observing me or some shit to figure out if I was telling the truth. But seriously, an observation quirk like that shouldn't be that rare to cause that!'
After a couple of minutes of me trying to reassure Toru, my food arriving eventually, I was finally able to open my eyes again without any of the pain from earlier. But now my eyes looked a red, not in the way that my eyes turned after getting Lightning Body, in the way that made it look like I had spent the entire night binge-watching anime.
When my food did arrive, Toru and her mom decided to sit with me, mostly because Toru didn't want to leave me yet. After they ordered their food which came a lot quicker than mine, what the fuck, Toru and I started to talk about quirks, especially her own.
"I'm telling you Toru your quirk is amazing in its own way." For the past five minutes, I've been trying to tell Toru how awesome her quirk was, because I saw what she could do later on.
"And, I'm telling you it's just Invisibility, there's nothing that amazing about it." But, for these past five minutes, she's been trying to disprove her quirk's usefulness.
"But, that isn't even your quirk, your quirk is Light Refraction." I finally said, telling her what her quirks name should've been.
"Wait, what do you mean, if that's her quirk, than why is she invisible?" Toru's mother said, joining into the conversation about Toru's quirk.
"If she was truly invisible, she wouldn't be able to see, because that would make the light go through her and wouldn't allow it to enter her eyes. That's why it's Light Refraction, because her quirk is constantly making the light bend away from actually touching her, but also making sure she can still see too." I explained, mainly using how Toru's quirk worked later on which helped me figure this out, and all those post online about the quirks of class 1-A.
When I finished my explanation they were both silent, Toru out of confusion and her mother because she quickly took out her phone to text someone, most likely her husband so they can make an appointment to get Toru's quirk registry edited.
"Honestly, with that type of quirk you could get into UA, especially if you learned how to bend the light however you want. It could probably even make you visible with enough control and training." I said casually, since the potential is there. If she could actually perfect it, she could use any light source as a weapon to either subdue people or destroy even metal with a focused beam of light.
"I could get into UA, wait I COULD BECOME VISIBLE AGAIN?!" Toru almost screamed with joy at this reevaluation of what she could probably do with her quirk. It seemed that the idea of being visible again was what made her happiest, though, looks like she really wants to be seen again.
