*Choso POV*
-2 Years Later-
"Happpyy birthday to Youuu" I hear Herman, Nao, Shoko, Shoya, his family and Shoko's family, that blonde braided girl who's name I learned is Miki along with Grandma at the front
I go to take a bite out of the cake before I feel a hand shove my face into the cake and I accept it since it's just what Herman always takes pleasure in doing.
"PFFT, HAHAHA" Nao laughs loudly while everyone else laughs but not to Nao's level.
I smile as I grab a prepared napkin beside me and wipe most off before everyone starts getting slices of cake handed to them by grandma.
"Gonna go wash this off" I say as I go to the bathroom in order to clean my face completely, no doubt I missed a spot.
Shoko did transfer away but she still lived at the apartments so Me and Herman would always visit, I became the bigger man last year and made Shoya along with Nao visit her as well. made them apologize, Shoko was happy, she's too damn nice for her own good.
Herman's the same in that regard too I guess, he doesn't deal with those issues like the future him would have, but goddamn if he's even more forgiving than Shoko, if that's possible.
I feel the 5 year binding Vow's weight disappear, the 10 year old one was gone the moment I turned 10 and so I do what anyone would've done, I Paint The Bathroom Red. Straight out of Dexters nightmare's.
I let a tidal wave of blood erupt from my back and cover every millimeter of the bathroom and feel myself connected to it all, whatever the blood feels I can tell what it specifically is, I can feel that some made its way outside the door, thankfully no on-
"AHHHH! B-BLOOD!" I can hear Nao yell out as footsteps race over. Ah...shit.
I open the door to everyone's shocked expressions ranging from horror to...well everyone just has horror struck expressions, what did I expect.
"Oh uh, guess I awakened my powers?" I say as I grab onto the bathroom wall and pull at the blood, making it gather back into my hand like perfect DIY Slime, satisfying honestly, not a speck of blood left as I toss it into the drain and start washing my hands.

-15 minutes Later-
after having Grandma and Shoko look me over thrice, and leave satisfied I sat on the couch while everyone else tried to get a sense of normalcy, Herman sat beside me.
"Will you become a Hero? Like, an unstoppable Duo?" Hermy says with excitement.
"I...guess I will, I'll become one after I turn 18, I'll get a job at a hospital, since I'm 15 and I want Money." I say with a smile.
"Oh, okay, I'll join you after then as well! And maybe I can join you in the hospital?" Hermy says as I shake my head.
"Not the hospital, I know your spit can heal bruises and patch up worse injuries but it's long hours, I don't wanna leave grandma alone, take care of her while I'm gone yeah?" I ask and he nods, understanding but still a bit down.
"I'll wait at SDN for you little brother, 2 years would be plenty of time to become number one in Torrence." I say with a smirk which makes him smile.

-1 week later, Midnight-
"HAHAHAHA, COME ON YOU BASTARD" I yell out as I stop in a clearing, facing the cursed Spirit.
"GRAHHHH" it yells as I get a good look at it.
"Huh, fitting I guess" I say as I notice the stitching on its body, as if it's made from multiple other cursed spirits sewed into one, it runs on all fours before it stops to a still in front of me.
"I'm gonna name you Frankie" I say as it opens its mouth before a dense orb of cursed energy forms.
-Flowing Red Scale- My blood mark thins and grows into two lines that go Vertically past my eyes before I dash out of its sight.
*BOOM* the general direction I was standing in is erased from its beam of cursed energy before punching it in its stomach, making its body reject gravity before getting directly under it and unleashing a flurry of punches keeping it in the air before I unleash a full powered punch reinforced with cursed energy which does decent damage before I bend my knees.
Blood comes out of my Blood mark and into my palms as I close them together. -Convergence- condenses the blood with cursed energy to its absolute limit before I point my clasped palms at the Curse.
I use -Piercing Blood- which shoots out a high speed arrow which pierces its head and I slide my palms down which makes the constant beam of blood pierce through the rest of its body like a knife through butter, killing it.
"Goodnight Frankie" I say before walking past the cemetery nearby where It came from and check for other Curses.

-8 hours Later-
Turns out Healing abilities are rarer than I thought, not super rare but also not common enough where you can find healers in Torrence, there is no healer where I'm going to be working.
Most likely because the pay is shit but I don't need money, I want to get more experience with my Reverse Cursed Technique and mostly just because feeling good after helping someone, especially with an injury is always rewarding and I'll need some rep before I start at SDN in the future.
I'm currently waiting in front where a massive amount of people are sitting and standing with multiple injuries before walking around and giving them all a glance, no one has anything life threatening so I walk to the desk.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" The receptionist asks.
"Hi, I'm here for an appointment with a Dr. Robinavich" I say with a smile.
"Ah, ok, through the door over there and you can wait in here while I let him know." She says and I nod before I walk in and sit down as I go on my phone and start listening to music.
It doesn't take long for a man to walk up to me, short hair and a decent beard before he sits in front of me.
"Usually you'd be meeting in an office with someone else, but due to you having powers, I as the Senior Physician am here to monitor what you can do, since you're 15 usually you wouldn't step anywhere near a patient but finding out how useful your abilities are will play a major part in what I say to the board." He says as I nod along.
"Now, if you could describe your current capabilities?" He asks as I nod
"Currently I can heal physical injuries, regrow limbs, organs and blood. not sure if I can do anything about certain birth defects right now" I say as I put my ear buds away and look back at his shocked expression.
"Uh-what are the drawbacks?" He asks
"None, just energy drain, takes 30 minutes to fill back up once empty" I say as I remember my abnormal Cursed energy regen, I don't know the standard for others but I hope I'm just special and it's because that god essentially merged two 'souls' as Choso's cursed Energy and mine merged together and increased Choso's reserves by 30%.
"That's uh- wow, mind if I see it in action? If what you're saying is true then that'll be a major help in deciding what I'll tell the people upstairs, they'll gladly look over your age if that's true" he says as I nod.
"Where do we start?" I say as I stand.
"Uh-De gloving injury from a motorcycle accident on the Highway." He says as we walk over to a room with the number 7 on it and I walk over to the injured man.
"Does your ability work on healed lost limbs? He just got out of surgery" He asks while I place my hand on the unconscious man.
"We're about to find out" I say as I pump Reverse Cursed Energy into the man which makes the stitches on his legs tear as a new lower leg grows back, bone's, cartilage, Muscle, Nerves, Dermis and finally the Epidermis leaving scarring from the thigh growing the leg.
"Done" I say as I look at Robinavich.
"Ho-ly shit, well damn kid I'll uh- let the big guys upstairs know and I will definitely call you once you're clear." He says as I nod and leave the room and walk out the building after a quick goodbye.
