Kapitel 11: Saving the Princess!

December 21, was the longest night. This night also had other significant importance.

In the middle of the night, in one of the hospitals in Osaka, a teen with red hair, pinkish-red eyes, and a tanned skin color that looked 19 years old walked in with regular clothes. There was a small smile on his lips, as if too relieved to be in hospital, which by his thick clothes just might be the case.

As it was cold outside, the teen was covered with thick coats, but the surprising thing, despite entering the warm interior, he didn't take off his coat. But the hospital was too quiet, and people inside were too tired to notice any of that.

"Let's see. " He murmured to himself as he looked at the map of the hospital, "Ah, the third floor.

He walked to the elevator and pressed the button and it took him seconds to arrive at his destination. Before he left the elevator, he pressed the panel with his palm, and the device he was hiding in his palm vanished and merged with the elevator. "Newborn ward.

He walked calmly and found a giant room filled with babies. This was the place he wanted to come to find a certain baby. So he plastered his face to the glass and looked inside and there he saw her. Sleeping like an angel.

He opened the door and listened to see if alarms would go off, but nothing happened. He sighed in relief and walked to the last row and picked up the baby girl with a little horn protruding from one side of her forehead and raised her into the air. "So cute. " He wanted to hug her, but she was so small.

He then opened his coat and took out a baby that looked alike like this one, instead, she was just an orphan this teen found on the streets. The horn was just an addition he created with his Quirk. This baby had no quirk, maybe that is why she was abandoned, but all in all, her fate would be miserable if she were to be left alone. By growing up in a loving family, her fate would be different now.

Of course, the teen wouldn't try to justify his actions of stealing a baby if there wasn't a perfect explanation behind it. The baby he came for was Eri, the most miserable child in the whole series. She was abandoned by her mother, destroyed her father, and experimented on for years despite being just a child… It was just pitiful. And how did the teen know all of these? Of course, he was Mokami. He used his powers to change his appearance to kidnap Eri on the day she was born.

He thought for years about what he could do about Eri. He really wanted to help her without resorting to removing her from her family, but in the end, he decided that this was for the best. An orphan found a loving family. Eri was saved. Best of both worlds.

Mokami took the baby and placed her into the small crib in his coat. Then he left the hospital just as he came in, of course not forgetting to remove the device that shut down the alarms and altered the cameras.

When he was out of the hospital, he made his way home. It was late in the night, and he couldn't explain how he found the baby if anyone saw her, but he already thought it through.

"I will just say I found her in front of the gates. Kaa-chan wouldn't object if I wanted to help her. " He thought to himself. When he entered the living room with the baby though, he was surprised to see his mother. Luckily, before entering the mansion, he changed his appearance and removed the clothes, and turned them back into fat to store in his body again. Now, he was wearing pajamas and was holding a baby.

"Moka-chan? " Mika asked as she looked at her son.

"Kaa-chan! " Mokami looked at Mika as he presented the baby, "I heard some voice, so I went to take a look and found this baby.

"What? " Mika was shocked but she quickly dashed at her son and took the baby from his hands. "Oh, my god, who could do such a thing to such a cute baby.

"Mom, what are we going to do? " Mokami asked with a frown.

"I don't know. " Mika looked troubled.

"We shouldn't report it. " He said, "If we do, they may send her to an orphanage. It is not safe there.

"Do you want her to live with us? " Mika asked in surprise.

"Yes, please. " Mokami looked into her eyes, as he answered.

"Oh god, let's talk about it tomorrow. " Mika sighed. "Can you create a crib and some blankets for her? Let's put her to sleep and tomorrow I will call Inko to check up on her. Later, we can see if there are any missing reports, if there are not, we can keep her.

"Okay," Mokami answered as he walked to his room and made a crib and a few blankets. Then, he wrapped the baby in them and laid her in the crib. When the baby was asleep, Mokami left the room and went to his mother's room.

"You really want her to stay? " Mika asked her son as she was laying down on her bed.

"Yes," Mokami answered without any hesitation. "Orphanage is cruel to any kid and I wouldn't want her to suffer. Fate brought her to us.

"You are right. " Mika sighed, "But we won't tell anyone.

"We need to forge an identity for her. Can you do it?

"I will deal with it, don't worry. " Mika nodded. "And I guess we just won't tell your father about it.

"Please don't.

"Mm. " Mika sighed, "But you have to be a good big brother for her, all right?

"I will be the best," Mokami answered with a smile.

"I guess it is okay. " Mika smiled back. "Go to sleep now.

"Okay. " Mokami smiled and kissed his mother's head and then went to his room. He hated to lie to his family, but there were things he couldn't say. Although it bothered him too, he knew there was a myriad of Quirks that could even read minds. He was working on a device to prevent something like this from happening to him and his family, but until then, he had to lie. Even to his sister and mother. He had to, to protect them.
