A certain smoke rising from ash - Chp 1 Beginnings -
Vulcan is as average as anyone in Academy City can be. He works tirelessly to take care of his younger sister while trying to find a cure for the both of them after the experiments that was done to them as kids from their farther. The same experiments that took away his older brother. Everyone tells Vulcan his brother is gone but he doesn't 'want' to believe it. Vulcan is determined to save his sister and find his brother. Will he be able to? You know as much as me.
Sorry if this is a bad summary I'm still new to this.
Academy City, a city 20-30 years ahead of the rest of the world, with technology unimaginable to everyone else. But even with all its tech, that doesn’t stop accidents from happening.
Midnight. Usually the stars aren't visible in the city because of all the light in the city blocking them. But this night was different. Black smoke rosed into the sky blocking out the moon and forming a cloud overhead. A building is engulfed in flames as sirens in the background ring. This building was just a simple research center, three stories tall with a plain exterior. You could replace it with any other center and nothing would be different.
That’s how it’s always been. That's how it should be. Except this one is different, besides the fact it is currently being burned down, two kids stood on the curb in front of the building.
The older of the two being a boy, around the age of 7 no older than 8, having black hair and grey eyes. In his left hand was a picture frame and in his right he held the hand of the younger child. A little girl barely the age of three with the same black hair and grey eyes. Strangely they both wore a long green shirt, similar to that of a hospital gown. Both of them covered in black substance, most likely ash, were illuminated by the burning building. The young girl is more confused than scared, but she still holds onto her brother, not knowing what to do. The older boy just stands there, eyes and mouth wide open, he’s not so much scared but
Tears formed around the corners of his eyes but were unable to fall. His eyes seemed to be dead focused on the fire, but everything around him started to blur. The crackling of the fire, the sirens getting closer, the alarm ringing from the lab, even his sister trying to talk to him faded out.
The only thing he is able to focus on is one thing, one person, one name.
…Vulcan…
...
“Vul-...”
A faint girl’s voice echoed in the room.
“Vulcan!”
The voice got closer.
“VULCAN!”
The voice now screaming, is reminiscent of an alarm clock.
“Wa… whaaat” Vulcan slowly opened his eyes after being abruptly woken up.
His eyes, halfway open, looked up to the ceiling. He sees a silhouette above him that disappears the next second. He laid still waiting for everything to unblur, but then the silhouette reappeared. This time far above him.
“GET THE HELL UP!!!”
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” Vulcan is shocked awake. His little sister Maki had jumped directly on his stomach putting her full weight onto his gut. Maki is a little girl no older than 11, who always has the same straight face and plain voice. She has curly, black, shoulder length hair that is being held up by two ponytails on the sides of her head, and grey doll-like eyes. She looks very similar to her brother so much that if you were to cut her hair and take a picture of Vulcan when he was 11 you wouldn't be able to tell them apart. Vulcan, who had all the wind in his lungs knocked out of him, looked up at his sister with pain and anger.
“OWWWW! What the hell are you doing?” He screamed at his sister standing on top of him.
“You had slept through your alarm. I tried to shake you awake but you didn’t get up. What else was I supposed to do? She said it in a completely flat tone and straight face, but Vulcan had a feeling she didn’t try anything before jumping on him.
“Just get off of me damnit” Vulcan ignoring his feeling pushed her onto his bed. He then starts to sit up on his bed while yawning. “What time even is it?” He asks while stretching.
“A little past 8:30” Maki spoked in the same flat tone but slightly higher. “If you didn’t want me to wake you up, you should have got up sooner” The edge of her mouth started to curl up ever so slightly, as if trying to hide a smirk, she quickly turned her head to hide it.
“8:3- What the hell? It’s a Saturday. Let me sleep in.” Confused since his sister woke him up so early, he grumbled annoyed.
Maki kept her straight face and flat tone but it was still obvious she was annoyed hearing her brother. “You said you would take me out today, since we couldn’t celebrate my birthday because you were studying” Maki pulled out a pink phone with blue flowers on it. On the screen was proof Vulcan did in fact agree to that. “There's a breakfast cafe I wanna try but it closes after 10”
“Oh…” Vulcan apologizes to his sister and says after he gets dressed they can head out. Maki, satisfied, leaves his room.
Vulcan is an average high school boy. Well, as average as any student in academy city can be. Vulcan, like most kids in this city, is an Esper. Vulcan being lucky with being a level 4, with the power typhokinesis or the ability to control smoke that he creates. He’s a 16 year old with black curly hair and grey eyes. He has a slim build but it’s obvious he has more muscle than the average highschooler. His eyes have bags under them probably because he hasn’t been getting enough sleep, which he was hoping he could catch up on since it’s summer.
Vulcan's room is decently big but it's cluttered by random clothes and random objects on the floor. Besides the floor the room is decently kept. To the left of the door is a closet in the corner, with a desk to the right of the closet. On top of the desk is a picture frame of 3 kids. They are in order of shortest to tallest or youngest to oldest. On the right of the door is a couple of shelves with figures, mangas, and games from various anime. In the far right corner from the door is his bed. With a window parallel to the door.
After sighing because his plans of sleep were put off for another day, he looks at the picture on his desk with a grim face, and then puts on more clothes besides his boxers and plain white shirt. Since summer just started and it hadn’t gotten that hot out, he would be fine if he still wore his gray hoodie. “I mean after all, if I get too hot I can just put it around my waist.” Justifying his decision to himself. After putting on shorts and brushing his teeth He goes to meet Maki by the door patiently impatiently waiting for her brother.
“You took your time to get ready.”
“I barely took 6 minutes” Annoyed by his sister. “Anyway, have you taken your medicine?”
“Y-yea.” Maki shifts her eyes looking away from Vulcan.
“Really”
“Yes” She whispers.
“STARE” Vulcan moved closer while staring at her while she tried not to make eye contact. “Don’t lie to me or I wont take you out”
“Why didn’t you tell me damnit?” Vulcan started getting concerned with his sister.
“Cause I'm barely able to keep them down.” Maki puts her left hand into a v shape and put it above her eye,
“Listen I know they’re disgusting, since I take them too, but you gotta take them damnit” Vulcan grabs Maki’s head and starts shaking her. “Listen I ran out too, so I'll pick up both of ours while we’re out ok? Also stop copying Ononoki.”
Maki lowers her left hand a bit.
“Peace pea-” Vulcan stops her from speaking with a chop to the head making her squeak a little.
The siblings left their apartment, going out to spend the day together, which meant Maki dragging Vulcan around district 15 all day. Around 9:20 the siblings made it to the cafe, which had a weirdly long line for a mom and pop place like this, especially when it was this early. Vulcan didn't want to wait in line for somewhere he’s never been but seeing how his sister wanted to go, he decides to though it out. After about 15 minutes of waiting they were finally able to get in and take a seat. A girl with blonde hair and glasses sat them at a window table, offered them some water, and gave them the menus. One look at the menu and Vulcan knew this cafe was overpriced.
How the hell is this place so popular with these prices? Vulcan let out a sigh while looking around. His eyes wandered back to his sister. She on the other hand was mesmerized by all the options. Her eyes were lasered to the menu and her mouth slightly open.
“Sigh” I have been saving up with my part time job at the store… It’s fine for one day I guess. Vulcan lets out a smile then moves his eyes out the window. At a glance he doesn’t see anything out of the ordinary. But after taking a second too look he sees a brown hair girl.
The girl, who looked to be in middle school, is wearing a school uniform which is odd for the weekend especially for summer but maybe she had remedial classes or something. But what really grabbed his eye was the fact she was wearing what looks to be some sort of military goggles on her head, a black briefcase in her hands, and her cold eyes. Her eyes reminded him of a doll, somewhat like his sister.
“Bro” a soft voice hits him but Vulcan just responded with a “Hmm”
He kept his eyes on the brown hair girl since such a young girl having that high tech stuff was a little strange, but after she walked away he brushed it off as having to do with JUDGMENT. He onced considered joining, but with taking care of his sister, school, and ‘other’ reasons he decided against it.
Suddenly *Plap* Vulcan is slapped on the head with a menu snapping him out
“H-huh? What's up” Vulcan stammers while bringing his attention back to his sister.
“I was wondering what to get? I can’t decide between th-”
“Just get both. I’m just getting some eggs so you can get something extra” Vulcan cut Maki off.
“You mean it? ” Maki bounces in her chair a bit afterwards.
The waiter eventually came back and took their order. A little more time goes by till they get their food, it is now close to 10. Vulcan was a little surprised by the fact Maki got a big ice cream for breakfast with realgar breakfast but with chocolate over it. I maybe should have listened to her before saying anything . But despite that he just lets out a sigh while eating his eggs .
Vulcan looks out the window again wondering about the brown hair girl. But his thought process is quickly cut short when he sees an older boy with black hair out the corner of his eye. Now people with black hair isn’t uncommon, in fact black hair is one of the most common colors in Japan. But it was more than that, his face, his build, his eyes. They were all so, familiar. Vulcan quickly snapped his head back in the direction of the person. But after taking a second to look around. No one was there. Was I just imagining it? Vulcan thought he was high for a second before his sister snapped him out.
“Ar–are you ok?” Maki was surprised to say the least.
“U-uh yeah… yeah it's nothing.”
Weird Maki thought to herself, but chose not to say anything and focused on eating. Vulcan, slightly embarrassed, just finishes his eggs and waits for his sister to get done too.
By the time they finished it was past 10 meaning the line outside was gone. But people were still visiting the shops around the area. Vulcan stretched once out of the cafe.
“Sigh… ok let's get the meds and head home”
“What? I still wanna visit the mall” Maki pouts at what her brother said. “You said we could do what I wanted to do” She started looking in her pocket for her phone.
“Oh… Ok ok we can go to the mall” Vulcan realizing there's no point in arguing just goes with what Maki says.
“Yay!” Maki grabs her brother’s hand and heads off to the mall. The two of them decided to take the above ground train since it’s the fastest way to the entrance of the mall. It isn’t rush hour, but around the time people started going out, so the train was fairly crowded. Seeing this Vulcan lets Maki take his seat while he stands. After a few minutes Vulcan was just staring out the window lost in thought, until a weird building caught his eye. He never noticed it before but in the distance he could see a tall building with no windows. He had a confused but grim face. But once it went out of his line of sight he just brushed it off.
They eventually arrive at their stop and head to the mall. They arrived at a pentagon shaped two stories tall mall, with an underground area, but besides its shape nothing about it was that different to any other mall. They headed inside and started walking in and out of stores, sometimes adding an extra bag. The two pass by a jewelry store, which catches Maki’s eye. She stood in front of the window looking at a golden necklace, with a frog in the center. Seeing what his sister is staring at, Vulcan winces at the sight of its price. So far they were able to get by off of coupons and sales, but this would nearly completely drain his bank account. Maki heard her brother, looked at the necklace one more time before walking off. Vulcan stares at his sister confused before letting out a sigh.
“Eh?” Maki turned around confused. Her brother was standing there with a soft smile. Vulcan walked into the store and began talking to the person up front. After a couple of minutes he walks back out with a box the size of his palm.
“Here” Vulcan reached out his hand giving Maki the box.
Maki stood there confused before taking the box and opening it. Inside was the golden necklace. She looks up to her brother who had a smile on his face but she can tell he is in pain after spending so much money.
“But you gotta do something for me now, kay?” Vulcan’s smile got bigger and he gave a thumbs up.
Maki stood confused for a few seconds before nodding her head then putting on the necklace. She then walked to her brother and hugged him.
Vulcan took out his phone, it has a grey case with a sticker of a sentai character on the back, and pulled up his messages. He scrolls down to the M section, and clicks a name called ‘Mackerel girl’, then scrolled up on their messages until he sees an image with a name under it.
“PRETTY PLEASEEEEE DO IT FOR YOUR BROTHER THAT YOU LOVES SO MUCH?!” Vulcan’s voice ranged throughout the underground section of the mall. The siblings were now in a more high end store than they would usually visit.
“... Really?” The gold necklace rings as Maki tilted her head to the side, still keeping her straight face.
“Come on. I bought you the necklace, just wear this for me please?” Vulcan has little tears in his eyes while crouching down to his sister. In his left hand he’s holding a black and white gothic lolita dress, and in his right is a pair of matching boots, that he decided to spend the last bit of money he had on. “Don’t you love dressing up?”
“I do but-”
“Then there’s no problem.” Vulcan cuts his sister off before she could finish.
Maki, exhausted from her brother pushing for her to wear the dress for the last 10 minutes, gives into her brother's pleas. Vulcan jumped up with excitement and dragged his sister to the front. Vulcan bought the dress while his sister just lowered her head. After the purchase went through the two walked out the store, Vulcan a little giddy, and Maki a straight face.
“Ah, you’re gonna look so cu-” The two started walking to a cross section of the halls. Vulcan turned around to dote on his little sister but then something in the corner of his vision caught his eye. Vulcan freezed for a second before snapping his head in the direction of the figure. He is here… flashed in his mind. Vulcan shoves the bags he was holding to his sister.
“STAY HERE!” Vulcan yelled back to his sister as he ran off to the figure.
This cross section was an exit and entrance to the underground section of the mall. On the left and right of where the two came from were stairs that lead to the upper part of the mall with elevators in the center of the cross section. The figure Vulcan saw started to blot up the stairs on the left, with Vulcan behind. When Vulcan got to the top of the stairs, the mall was crowded and he could barely see anything let alone a single person, but that didn’t stop him as he started pushing people out of his way trying to cut through the crowd. As he did he was able to make out the figure leaving at the entrance. Vulcan kept trying to cut through the crowd but rush hour had just started so the closer to the entrance he got the more people were in his way. Crap! He’s right there damnit! Vulcan screamed in his head. As Vulcan was being pushed he thought of something.
Vulcan stopped pushing and stood still. He took a few deep breaths trying to focus his mind. After a few seconds his fingertips vibrated then started to disappear, moving up his arms and his legs, eventually making it to his head. In his place was a black cloud of smoke, at first resembling a person but then the cloud moved to the ground. Vulcan had taken the particles that made up his body and turned them into smoke particles. But to do this without harming himself he has to completely focus on it. If not.. He’d rather not think about it. In this smoke state Vulcan was still completely conscious. How? It’s a fanfic. But he didn’t exactly see. He still had a sense of up down left right, but to know of objects his smoke would need to touch them. But with his body now smoke he started moving past people, remembering the direction of the door, staying closer to the ground to not draw attention. Vulcan made it out the exit in a matter of seconds. When he felt the air around him change, he knew he was outside the mall. The smoke cloud stood still before returning to the shape of a person then reassembling himself.
“Huff… huff” Vulcan sounded winded after he turned back. He looked around, as he took deep breaths, but the figure was gone. He was too late. Still Vulcan ran to the side of the curb to try and see anything but nothing came out of it. After a few minutes of looking around Vulcan decided to stop. Rush hour seems to have slowed down a bit with most people already in the mall, so Vulcan just walked back inside leaning his head towards the ground. As he made it back to the stairs he noticed something on the ground. It was a pink phone with blue flowers on it… Maki’s phone…
Maki was sitting down at the tables near the center of the cross section. Her brother running off like that was strange which worried her, but it wasn’t shown on her face. After a couple more minutes of waiting she decided to go look for her brother. She went up the same stairs her brother went too, as she reached the top she took out her phone getting ready to call her brother.
*Click* She felt something pressed against her back, pressed on her spine, which made her yelp. But before the sound could scream her mouth had a hand covering it. Out of shock she dropped her phone. Dread fell over her after realizing what’s happening to her.
“No sudden movements. Just walk with me” A raspy voice came behind Maki. Another person put their hand on Maki’s head. The three of them started walking towards a different exit than the one Vulcan took. “That boy with you was able to get this necklace, right? It’s pretty expensive, ain't it? I wonder how much he’ll be willing to pay for you?” Maki was on the verge of tears but was too scared to do anything at the thought of what might happen. The three walked out of the mall, then started to walk to the side of the road into an alleyway.
“Rotten luck…” A spiky black haired boy lets out a sigh standing in front of a mall. He had found a piece of paper with some coupons, for food, on it earlier that day. But as fate had it they had expired the day before. He decided to buy some groceries since he was already there but a few steps out of the mall the plastic bags bottom tore open dropping everything onto the ground. He had spent around 10k JPY on the groceries, since he now has a black hole for a roommate, but seeing the items on the ground nearly brought him to tears. Trying not to cry he brought his head up, but as he did he spotted two guys walking into an alley with a girl. He would normally just ignore it if it wasn’t for the fact the girl looked as if she was going to cry.
“Those assholes. What the hell are they doing?” After the three went into the alley he quickly followed, keeping a distance so he wouldn’t be spotted. After all of them went deep into the alley there was a little clearing. The black haired boy hid behind a dumpster on the right side of the wall. The black haired boy, now hiding, looked into the clearing seeing that the two boys had met up with two more. Now getting a closer look he was able to see that one of the thugs was pressing a gun to the back of the girl WHAT THE HELL! He screamed in his head. His right hand that was touching the dumpster curled into a fist. The thug holding the gun stood on the left and the other 3 stood on the right, with the girl in the center. Then the thug with the gun pushed the girl to the ground and stepped on her. Before his brain could even process what had happened, the boy behind the dumpster jumped out and ran at the thug.
“HEY ASSHOLE!” He roared as he closed the distance. He was around A couple meters away but he effortlessly crossed the distance in a few steps. “AHHHHHHHHHH” His fist in the air, the black haired boy swung. A clean hit on the face of the thug with the gun. His body went flying, it hovered off the ground for a few seconds before landing close to two meters away. THe thug was knocked unconscious and didn’t move.
“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ASSHATS DOING?!” The black haired boy couldn’t hold his anger. “Are you really ganging up on a girl? Don’t any of you have pride as men?” He barked at the thugs.
“YOU FUCKING BRAT!” The thug in the middle snapped back. “You’re going to regret doing that” The three then took out their own weapons. Two of them were knives and the last was a baton similar to one the police use. At this site it finally clicked to the black haired boy that not only is he outnumbered but also doesn’t have a weapon. He usually only took fights if they were a 1v1 or 1v2 because anything more than that usually meant a beating. Sweat started to drip down his face, but he wasn’t going to let these thugs just take this little girl, he lifted his arm preparing for the fight. But suddenly the air started to get a little thicker, then a black smoke started to circle around them, blocking their vision.
“W-what? M-Maki?” Vulcan had reached down to the phone, and after taking a closer look confirmed it was his sisters. He bolted his head up while his breath started to quicken. His body started to shake all over. He began frantically looking around. DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT! Blasted in his head. After a few seconds of standing in that area he began pushing through the crowd again. He could barely see anything but as some people began to move he could see what looked to be 3 people leaving the mall, one around the same height as his sister. The crowd started to let up a little but it would still take him a couple of minutes to get to the exit. I really shouldn’t do it this many times a day, but screw it. Vulcan stopped and took deep breaths once again. After a few seconds his body was replaced with smoke like before. The cloud of smoke quickly began passing everyone until it was once again outside. Feeling the air outside, Vulcan forms back to normal.
“AHH, HUFF HUFF HUFF” Vulcan changed back to normal but when he was fully assembled he fell to his knees catching himself with his hands. His breath was even more heavy than it was the last time, this time it somewhat looked like he was hyperventilating. His body stung all over as if he was being stabbed with needles. DAMNIT! He screamed at himself before he looked back up. He scanned the area looking for the group. He sees a boy in a white shirt running into an alleyway, there being no other area that wasn’t in broad daylight, Vulcan decides that's where he should go look. With that Vulcan took another deep breath and stood, he walked forward in the direction of the alley, taking his first step… then promptly falling over. FU- With a *smack* Vulcan slammed his head into the ground. Oww… God damnit. Vulcan used his hands to support himself while taking more deep breaths. The sight of Vulcan falling down, standing up, then falling down again, started to get some eyes on him but Vulcan just ignored them while he tried to stand again. Vulcan's whole body starts shaking but he forces himself to put his leg up and then the other. At this point since he’s forcing himself to move instead of taking a break his legs start to feel as if they’re being stabbed. Despite the pain he moved on. He slowly and shakily moved ahead.
After a minute he was able to make it to the entrance of the alley. He starts leaning on the wall which makes it easier to walk. But at this point most of the pain started to fade. As he goes farther in he sees the boy in white punch a thug, while surrounded by 3 others. As Vulcan looks down, he sees a girl laying on the ground, his sister. Vulcan quietly makes it down the alley as the boy in the white shirt starts shouting at the thugs. As Vulcan got to the exit he saw the three thugs pulling out weapons and the white shirt boy started sweating, probably just now realizing what he got himself into.
Crap… Here we go. Vulcan raised his hands, pointing them at the opening. The palms of his hands start to shake while becoming a little foggy before smoke starts to come out. Vulcan takes the air particles around him and turns them into smoke which he can control. The smoke fills the area making a, well, smoke screen. Everyone in the area is now blinded, except Vulcan. He's able to get a sense of where everyone is via feeling where they are with his smoke. Except the boy in the white shirt. The smoke around the boy starts turning back into realgar air. Mainly around his right hand. Vulcan finds it strange but ignores it and focuses on his sister. Vulcan sneaked into the opening and grabbed his sister who at this point had been knocked out, either from getting hit to the ground or from panic, and dragged her back into the alley.
“W-what the hell??” The thugs confused start trying to fan the smoke away from them. While the boy in the white shirt starts fumbling around.
“I got you. Don’t worry” Vulcan whispered to his unconscious sister as he pulled her near the opposite end of the alley. Vulcan was just going to leave the thugs and boy, since his body was still feeling pain which was brought back cause he was using his powers too much but then he remembers the boy in white standing up for his sister. “Dammit!” He sighed. He leans his sister against the wall before standing up and using the wall to walk back.
“Ahh, Rotten luck! Of course this would happen.” The boy with black hair sighed while fumbling in the smoke. Then he feels a hand on his shoulder, before feeling the weight of a person on his back.
“Clam down, I made this.” Vulcan spoke to the boy. “Listen I can't fight right now so I'll guide you.”
“Wh- Oh, ok. I’m counting on you then.” The black haired boy didn’t really have any other options so he decided to do what the person said.
“Just take 3 steps forward and punch in front of you.” Vulcan stopped leaning on the boy.
“Ok!” The black haired boy steps forward before punching right in front of him. Bullseye. He landed a hit directly in the gut of one of the thugs. The thug stubbles back a bit before swinging his knife from the direction he got hit.
“Doge right then hit left!” Vulcan screams out into the fog.
The black haired boy dove right and narrowly missed the hit, seeing the knife move past him before swinging his body left and landing a blow right on the thug's head, and knocking him out. The thug went flying before falling onto his friend.
“Thank you” The black haired boy shouts into the smoke.
“DUCK!”
One of the thugs heard a boy right next to him and swung his baton in the area. But because Vulcan screamed, the black haired boy was able to doge the stick.
“Directly behind you”
YES, SIR!” The black haired boy turned 180 degrees, putting his whole body in the punch. Bingo.
“AHHHHH” The thug that had the baton felt a sharp pain in his crouch before feeling a popping sensation and a flood of pain. He stumbled back a step before falling over onto his side grabbing what's left of his jewels.
The thug that had his friend fell on him finally got his passed out friend off him and got to his knees. “You damn, BRATS! I’m gonna gut you like a fish”
“Are you sure about that?” Vulcan spoke behind the thug before slamming a trash can lid on his head knocking him out.
With that the fight was over. Vulcan lifted his hands once again and began dispelling the smoke. Now that the smoke was gone the two boys were able to see each other clearly.
“You’re the one that made the smoke, right? Thanks cause I wouldn’t have been able to fight three on one.” The black haired boy chuckled as he spoke.
“No, I gotta thank you. If you weren't here to stop them, who knows what would’ve happened to my sister.” Vulcan let out a sigh of relief.
“Oh yeah, where is she?”
“She’s fine I put her at the end of the al-” A sharp pain hit Vulcan from all over his body which caused him to fall to the floor. “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” He roared out” His head felt as if it was splitting apart. In fact his entire body felt like that. The pain was too much from him to handle, he started convulsing on the fool. It's like he was tossed into a wood chipper, forcibly put back together, then tossed back into the chipper a hundred times a minute. His body was falling apart. Each cell, each atom, each particle that was being ripped apart, then painfully trying to put itself back together. But Vulcan was helpless to do anything. All he could do was lie there as his body slowly fell apart.
“WHAT THE HELL!” The black haired boy was shocked seeing the boy convulsing on the ground. “What do I do? Crap.” he started panicking looking around and at the boy.
“M– My power… I…. I can-t con…tro-l… it. Ca-ll… the- fro…g… doc–tor” Vulcan’s head was racing. Blood started dripping down his mouth, In fact blood was leaking from all over his body. He was barely able to complete a thought. Vulcan swung his limbs around without realizing. He was Useless to it. Parts of his body faded in and out of smoke, his body was desperately trying to do anything to make it stop.
“Power?” The black haired boy looked at Vulcan on the ground. Then at his right hand.
*CRASH* The sound of glass shattering filled the alley way. But then relief. The entirety of the pain wasn’t gone but Vulcan had stopped convulsing and could now put a thought together. His eyes looked up, on his forehead was a right hand. The right hand of a certain black haired boy. Vulcan was taking heavy breaths.
“Are… are you ok?” The black haired boy asked.
“Y-yeah…. Thank you.” Vulcan was confused as to what just happened but was too grateful to say anything.
“You wanted me to call the frog face doctor, right?” The boy wanted to make sure he heard Vulcan right as he pulled out his phone.
“Yeah… yeah, if you could.”
“It’s no problem.” The boy smiled and began looking at his contacts.
“Bye the way, what's your name?” Vulcan now calmed asked.
“Hmm? Oh, I’m Touma”
This is my first written fan fic, I already got chp 2 on ao3 and will post it here when I post chp 3 on ao3 cause... Anyway I hope you like and I'm gonna put Vulcan through some stuff later on in the story
