chapter seven;

━━━━━━ "TOMURA, COME HERE", KISA HOLLERED, to which the male had already gotten used to the woman's weird beckoning.

"what", the blue-haired male snarled.

"the rest of you are dismissed", kisa said as she shooed chisaki, inasa, and dabi away.

"take off the hand", the girl commanded, to which shigaraki just sighed, complying as the girl had already seen his face multiple times.

kisa sharply tilted shigaraki's face up, making him look at her meanwhile she inspected the scars on his face and neck.

shigaraki clicked his tongue. "why are you even doing this shit?"

     "why? do you not like it?", kisa asked, taking off shigaraki's gloves as she rubbed lotion on them like always.

     the man stayed silent, watching as kisa carefully rubbed the cream all over his fingers, careful not to touch all five at once.

once the gloves went back on, shigaraki stood up to leave until he was stopped by a warm hand.

"tomura, why don't you stay the night with me", kisa smiled, to which shigaraki flinched as he immediately snatched his hand away.

     "w-what the hell are you talking about?! do you have no shame??"

     kisa chuckled. "you four are bound to sleep with me someday. what's the difference if it's now? now come on, I'm extra tired today", kisa yawned as she pulled shigaraki towards her bed.

     "y-you—wait...so we're not..."

     "hm? we're not what?", kisa asked as she patted down her night gown, crawling in as she opened her arms up for shigaraki to crawl in too.

     "nothing", the male muttered as he laid on the very edge of the bed, as far away from kisa as possible.

     "are you trying to fall off the bed? come closer", the girl laughed, pulling on the male's black shirt.

since all for one, all might, and the rest of the heroes and villains left—along with the ending of the feast—there was no need for the four to continue dressing up in suits.

hence everyone went back to their own clothes, in which kisa thought inasa was the most overdressed and even teased him about it.

"tch. you're so annoying", shigaraki grumbled as he scooted his body slightly closer.

     the blue-haired male heard a sigh and a shuffle, to which he had thought the girl had gotten out of bed. turning around, he was shocked to see kisa right beside him, smiling.

     "w-why the fuck are you so close?! don't you know of personal space?", shigaraki growled, looking away as his face unconsciously started heating up.

"shhh, just go to sleep tomura", kisa softly mumbled as she patted the male's head, to which shigaraki had begrudgingly closed his eyes.

kisa smiled as she brushed though shigaraki's blue locks, surprisingly soothing the male as she placed a gentle kiss on top of the man's forehead.

     'wrong...you know it's shimura tenko'.

     "what do you four think? do I look dashing? handsome? the most wonderful—"

"yes, all that", chisaki interrupted, not being able to stand the girl's self praise any longer.

"oh kai, why so uptight?", kisa joked as she made sure the armor around her was tightly secured.

     "kisa, what's this hunting competition about?", inasa asked, watching as the girl tired her own hair up into a high ponytail.

     "it's just an annual competition to see which sibling is the best. kaoru doesn't participate because he's still too young. but we enter the same forest every year and hunt for other yōkai. though the ones in the forest are more dangerous, as they're wild spirited, and they heed to no one", kisa explained.

     "what's so dangerous about a forest?", dabi scoffed, to which kisa glanced up from the mirror before looking back at her fair complexion.

     "it might not look much from the outside, but the nights are where it gets...complicated".

kisa tied her mask that revealed the bottom half of her face. the girl painted her lips red, rubbing the top and bottom together as they curled up into a confident smile.

"what's the point of wearing makeup to a hunting competition?", chisaki asked, walking out the door alongside the others.

     kisa momentarily stopped.

     "it's my war paint", kisa smiled, continuing walking as they all reached the outdoors, where tents were set up and everyone was waiting.

"I see you're finally here kisa", isao grunted.

"indeed father".

kimiko and kasumi had on a similar outfit, with their armors strapped tightly against their bodies, and their hair tied up with a hairpin securing it.

"father, I would like to make a proposition", kasumi spoke, to which isao hummed in response.

     "what is it kasumi? and where's your fiancé bakugo katsuki?", isao questioned.

     "he's currently feeling a bit unwell father, nothing to worry about", kasumi answered, making kisa raise a brow.

     "and I want to make a suggestion of bringing at least one of my fiancées with me", kasumi requested.

isao chuckled. "I see you've grown attached to them. no worries, which one would you like to bring?", isao asked, pleased that they are getting along so well.

kasumi smiled as she looked up. "todoroki shouto".

the boy with heterochromia eyes stepped forward, clenching his fists as he focused his gaze on the ground, refusing to look up.

"since kasumi's bringing someone, wouldn't you like to bring someone too, kisa?", isao asked.

"ah, no need father. they would only hold me back", kisa coldly replied as the four men furrowed their brows.

"kisa nee-chan, you mustn't speak of your fiancées like that", kimiko reprimanded.

"how I speak about them is my problem. it'll never be of your concern", kisa snapped back.

"kisa, kimiko isn't wrong. I suggest you pick someone now", isao said, making kisa loudly curse in her head.

on instinct, kisa would've went with dabi, but she knew better than to pit the two brothers up against each other.

     'too many emotions...I can't be having that right now'.

     meanwhile shigaraki would've been quite the companion, kisa knew the male would've been too irritated at everything.

    'chisaki's too much of a germaphobe...but his quirk would be quite useful....no...his, tomura's, and dabi's quirk are too much...though inasa's...'

     "inasa, you're coming with me", kisa said.

     "princess, I could take his place instead if you'd like", dabi offered, clearing wanting to take todoroki on.

     kisa shook her head. "I know you're eager to be with me dabi, but another time", kisa smiled, kissing dabi's chin.

     "alright, two days time. best of luck", isao announced.

     "w-wait, no weapons?", kirishima questioned, a bit worried.

     "my dear, why need weapons when shouto has his quirk? plus, us yōkai have our own tricks up our sleeves", kasumi answered, to which the red-head had promptly nodded.

     "inasa, come here", kisa commanded, stripping down her armor.

     "princess, what are you—"

     "take off your coat and change into this. don't wear the suit, it won't be easy to move in", kisa intercepted.

     inasa hesitantly followed as he quickly left to go change, meanwhile kisa inched closer to the other three men.

     "while we're gone, please take good care of kaoru", kisa smiled as she gave a quick kiss to shigaraki and dabi.

     "and would you like a kiss on the hand kai?", kisa asked, to which the male had given a curt nod, not wanting others to think of them as suspicious.

     kisa then carefully lifted up chisaki's gloved hand, placing a soft kiss on the fabric.

     inasa had swiftly returned, in black clothing with the armor strapped on top.

     "are you not wearing any?", dabi questioned, to which kisa just shook her head.

     "won't be necessary. plus, I have seven lives. I've got way more to spare than you four combined".

     before the rest could say anything more, kisa laced her fingers with inasa, who had begrudgingly accepted such affection.

     the three sisters along with two of their fiancées stood at the edge of the forest, with trees taller than the average redwoods.

     "listen inasa, no matter what, do not leave my side. there's many yōkai in there, ones that aren't tamed. as a human, even if you do have a quirk, it could get dangerous. do you understand?", kisa seriously asked.

inasa honestly didn't care much. he could care less about the monsters lying behind the forest, as he was sure it wasn't anything he couldn't handle.

"inasa, promise me", kisa lowly demanded.

the black-haired male sighed in annoyance.

"fine".
