4 Years

"Happy Birthday" my mom clapped as I blew out my candles.

It's been four years since I first woke up in this world and a lot has changed.

For starters I learned that I was in the world of My Hero Academia. It wasn't hard considering that literally everyone has super powers and that a certain blonde symbol of peace is on the TV constantly.

It was a bit shocking at first but, when I thought about what I'd be able to do in this world with my System I couldn't contain my excitement.

The only problem was that I was trapped in babies body and couldn't do anything.

The first couple months were the worst! I was hungry constantly, was tired all the time, and had constant diarrhea from only drinking milk and it sucked.

I got tired of my limited mobility at 6 months old and started walking much to the shock of my parents. I held out on talking a bit more and said my first word at 10 months. It was annoying having to pretend to learn a language but, I managed.

After I was able to communicate and my body was stronger. I pretty much just did a bit of light exercise and watched TV every day since there wasn't much else for me to do. Thankfully I didn't have to watch all those stupid kid shows and was allowed to watch the news and show about heroes.

At 2 years old I was already speaking in complete sentences and asked my mom if she could teach me how to read since dad was at work a lot of the time.

It was a bit of a shock when I learned that both of my parents were heroes. My mom retired when I was born but, my dad still went out to work just more infrequently so he could spend time at home with us.

His hero name was Calico: The Cat Hero it was a bit unimaginative but, in a world with literally thousands of heroes you take what you can get I guess.

My dad's power were pretty self explanatory with him being a cat person and all. He had enhanced strength and agility, as well as perfectly balanced, heightened senses, and lightning quick reaction speeds.

He was pretty famous to being the 23rd ranked hero. I asked my mom about it and apparently he was number 16 before I was born and he had to cut back on his hours.

She then went on to brag about how she was the 31st ranked hero before she retired. Her hero name was Minami: The Soft Hero it was also a bit uncreative because Minami was her real name but, her powers were actually really cool! She had the ability to soften or harden anything she touched.

So she could make her clothes hard enough to block bullets or soften the ground beneath her to survive a huge fall. It was a pretty versatile Quirk.

After I "learned" to read I basically spent the next few years learning and doing simple exercises to make sure I grew up strong.

Then finally it happened! On the morning of my fourth birthday I woke up screaming, there was an agonizing pain at the top of my head and on my lower back. I had absolutely no idea what was happening.

My parents came barreling into the room always careful about this sort of thing in case any villains ever decided to attack.

I thought I was going to die but, my parents tried to calm me down and lead me to a mirror.

I gasped when I saw my reflection on top of my head twitching around was a pair of fluffy cat ears! They were the same dark blue color as me and my mom's hair but, had a bit of white on their tips.

I turned around to look at my back and saw a long tail with the same color scheme waving around.

"Great" I thought to myself "I'm a cat boy now."

I'd never really considered the fact that I might get a Quirk because of the System. So this came completely out of left field for me.

Though now that it happened I couldn't say that I hated it. Even without doing any testing my vision and hearing seemed sharper and the world seemed to move ever so slightly slower when I wanted it to.

It seemed like I got my dad's powers. My parents spent the rest of the day training me or as they called it playing. So that I could control my new abilities and didn't accidentally hurt any of the kids in my preschool.

Then around dinner time my dad got an emergency call and had to go to work so it was just me and my mom when we had my cake.

My presents were mostly books and different kinds of hero paraphernalia since my parents knew I never really played with toys.

They were actually a little bit worried about how mature I was even when I was still holding back a bit to act like a kid. I was even taken to a couple of doctors and psychologists before. But, nothing ever came of it. My parents were just told that my personality was most likely because of how much smarter I was than other kids my age.

They tried to get me to socialize with the kids at my preschool but, I just didn't have anything in common with those nose pickers.

As I finally went to sleep that night I got the message I had been waiting years for.

Mission: Take It Easy! (Completed)

Description: You are currently a one month old baby and are to young to be practicing Chakra! Do not mold any Chakra until you are at least 4 years old.

Reward: 1,000 Points, One Basic Technique Scroll

I clicked to accept my reward and was given the option to select which Basic Technique Scroll I wanted.

It was a tough choice because there was a lot of them and they all looked useful but, I eventually narrowed it down to three choices Basic Taijutsu Scroll, Basic Shuriken Jutsu Scroll, and Basic Fuinjutsu Scroll.

I picked these instead of actually jutsu because even if I got a powerful Jutsu I still had no Chakra so I wouldn't even be able to use it.

After thinking a bit more I chose the Fuinjutsu option because I could learn how to fight and throw things on my own. But, I would never be able to learn how to make seals by myself.

Besides Fuinjutsu was the kind of technique that seemed like it would take years of patient study to master. And right now I had nothing but time. Plus, I could hide my training by pretending my seals were children's drawings.

Now that I claimed my reward it was time to practice my Chakra again after all these years. Sitting cross legged I started to meditate and combine my chakra.

All these years later even though I never actively trained my Chakra after forming that first tiny drop my body still passively created Chakra. It wasn't much but, it was like I flipped a switch in my body and it used the extra energy I didn't use that day to make more Chakra.

It went from the size of a tiny droplet to being about the size of a golf ball.

As I meditated I could see another drop forming. This one was easily a thousand times bigger than the original and was the size of a rain drop. After it was completed the new drop merged with the golf ball making it ever so slightly bigger.

Now that I finally had the ability to use my Chakra without crippling myself I decided to do a bit of training. I grabbed a leaf a took from outside earlier today and held it to my forehead.

It was the most basic Chakra training exercise of the Hidden Leaf and the reason they had a leaf on their headbands.

The point of the exercise was to focus my Chakra to my forehead and stop the leaf from falling. It was the same concept used in wall walking but, a million times easier.

Willing my Chakra through my body I focused it to where the leaf was then let go. My golf balls worth of Chakra rapidly shrunk and I was only able to hold the leaf on my head for around five seconds before it fell.

I slumped down exhausted my Chakra had shrunk down to next to nothing again an I could feel sweat dripping from me.

"Chakra Exhaustion is no joke" I panted.

I didn't know if it was because I had terrible Chakra Control or if I just had that little Chakra in the first place. But, either way I knew I needed to do a lot more training if I wanted to be anywhere close to combat capable.

The next morning after eating I huge breakfast I headed off to preschool with my mom hugging me and kissing me on the cheek as she left.

I pulled awkwardly at my pants because of the hole my mom cut in them for my tail, it was kind of embarrassing. But, it didn't worry about it too much since mom said she was going to the store today to buy me some specialty made ones.

I had to push myself through a crowd of toddlers because everyone noticed my new limbs and were trying to touch and grab at them. I had to force myself not to punch anyone and settled for threatening to cut them with a pair of scissors if they didn't stop.

Apparently I scared the crap out of them because they went and tattled on me and I had to explain to a teacher that I wasn't actually going to do it and just wanted them to stop touching me.

He believed me because I was always one of the most mature and trustworthy kids in class never caused any problems. But, I still got in trouble because threatened them with a weapon.

I didn't mind though since my punishment was just two hours in time out. Which I actually enjoy since it meant that none of the other kids could bother me.

I just sat there staring at the wall the whole time, or at least that's what everyone thought I did.

In reality I was reading my new Fuinjutsu Scroll. When I got the scroll it didn't do what I hoped it would and just make me automatically understand exactly how it worked. I actually had to read it, luckily it did make a Scroll in the real world because I had no idea how I would explain that if it was found. No, I could actually see the book in my head. Which was good because that way no one would ever no about it.

Fuinjutsu ended up being just as complicated as I expected, being a lot more that just drawing some squiggly lines. I felt like it would take me weeks before I was able to make even the simplest seal.

But, like I said before I got nothing but, time.

When my mom picked me she actually laughed when she heard what happened to me because my dad apparently did something similar as a child. Though she still grounded me from watching TV for a week.

As I went to bed that night I found that my ball of Chakra was back to being the size of a golf ball. I meditated again to add another drop to then tried the Leaf Exercise again.

This time I lasted seven seconds before collapsing. Which helped me confirm it was my Chakra Control that was holding me down. Since I didn't think that one drop I added was enough to add two extra seconds.
