Niji breathed in the ocean air as she strolled down the beach in her new yellow swimsuit. It felt nice to be out and about around the beach. She had everything she needed. Her beach towel. Her sunscreen. Her beach ball. She ready to have some fun in the sun without a care in the world. A lot has happened in the past few months. She had been stuck in the lab so much lately in order to better herself as a hero. She also was trying to get back into singing more and was apart of the cheerleader squad. And to boot she had a boyfriend. Things were looking up.
But there were days that it still hurt. The past of losing friends and family could be a great burden to the soul. She still felt that the hole inside her wasn't fully close yet, no matter how many friends she had. But she was going to move forward and better herself. Haruuhi-sensei had been helping her better a project that she made to dedicate in the memory of her friends and gave her the suggestion to take the day off.
And taking the day off was what she was going to do. She sat the beach towel down hot sand, which she felt was soothing to her feet. Her new core in her chest shined brightly with different color gems in the sun and her rainbow hairbow shown proudly. This was going to be a good day. But even good days could have a few mishaps. Especially when you don't pay attention what you are doing.
After applying the sunscreen to her, she started throwing her beach ball into the air until she threw it a little too hard. It sailed across the sky, heading for unsuspecting woman. "Watch out! Run away ball!" she yelled out trying to catch the bouncing ball.

The beach! Both a source of unending joy and an old nemesis of her youth. Coming here when she was little had been nightmarish before she figured out how to take the proper precautions against the sun considering she couldn't wear sunscreen. Wasn't exactly hard to figure out. No staying in the sun for more than thirty minutes at a time, always have a source of shade handy, etc. But she'd had to go through a lot of burns to figure that one out and for her, those hurt a lot. One time she got burns on the bottom of her feet and couldn't walk for like a day! Luckily though today was a simple delivery job. Old couple who ran the beachhouse had called her up after they heard the weather forecast and asked her to bring down an extra box of ice creams for the kids. All in a days work for Golden Sun Direct Delivery! Even though delivering ice creams isn't exactly what she had in mind when she was made this business, if it brought a smile to the face of the kids it was worth it! Besides, it's not like she was doing it for free, standard rates applied. Just like her business course had said, unless you can get some real good PR out of it, never work for free! It had only taken her a few minutes to job from the local store to the beachhouse with the box, ignoring the stares and whistles she got for being through the streets in her bikini. She was used to those by now. Every second counted, the ice creams wouldn't stay frozen for long! Her jog turned into a sprint as she hit the sand, having to move quicker in order to counteract the shifting surface beneath her sandals but the smiling older woman waiting at the back door of the kiosk gave her the determination and courage to press on. Grinning wide, she planted the box on the ground as she got closer, delivering a quick salute. "Inoue, Kaisaki of Golden Sun Direct Delivery, at your service!"-------- After having helped the older couple store the ice creams in their freezer and even hand some out to the kids who came running up excitedly, it was time for Kai to head off to do her other deliveries. Before that though, a break! She hadn't been at the beach in so long, she figured she deserved at least a little ten minute run along the shoreline before she got back to work, right? Maybe that line of thinking was a slippery slope, especially considering she'd taken an entire day off to hang out with Yumi earlier in the week. What an odd but wonderful day that'd been! She began to lose herself in her thoughts as she began to run, just moving on autopilot as her mind wandered. Yumi, Kirk, Fion... she'd met so many folks from U.A. lately, so many really cool, interesting heroes in training. Kai still wasn't sure about the whole Hero System thing or the need to train kids to fight with superpowers but if they were enjoying it and not being menaces to society in the process, who was she to judge? It was clearly working if they were producing heroes like Yumi and Kirk; she'd never met two people more dedicated to what they did, be that modelling, cosplay, sports or hero work. For the first time in a while she questioned whether she had taken the right path... Yet just as she had that thought, someone shouting snapped her out of it, exactly in time to get hit in the face broadside by a beach ball. While the ball wasn't exactly heavy enough to knock her over, the shock of it at least made her stumble into her back food, skidding to a halt in the sand as she snatched the ball out of the air before it tumbled any further away. With a loud chuckle she held it out to the girl who went running after it, speaking with a smile. "Watch yourself kid, you might end up losing this if you're not careful, hehe!" There she went, calling people 'kid' again. She wasn't that old! She needed to stop doing that to herself! • Words: 722 • Tag: @niji • |

Niji chased after the ball, hoping that it would not knock the woman in its path. She looked like she was doing something very important and the last thing she wanted was a peeved off woman getting hit in the head with a beach ball. Luckily for Niji, and some great reflexes, the blonde woman caught the ball and gave it back to Niji with a small chuckle. "I am so sorry about that," Niji said bowing apologetically over and over again. "I should have paid attention to what I was doing."
Man, she felt bad. And only a few weeks away from going to New York with Desmoshi. Usually, when things like this happen, she would see it as an omen of the bad times to come. But lately, she had been trying to be more positive and uplifting about situations. Well, since the woman was positive about the situation. She might as well be positive about it herself. "Hello, my name is Niji Uta," she said with a smile. "I am a first-year at UA and was just enjoying a day on the beach. Sorry again about the whole beach ball issue." Might as well introduce herself and get to know more people, right?

Geez, she was apologetic, huh? Kia blinked as the girl bowed over and over again, not really sure what to do with herself. Clearly this girl was expecting her to be mad or something but like... the ball was so light she barely felt it. She'd done much worse on the beach in her high school days. A... story for another time, perhaps. "It's no problem, you don't have to bow so much, haha! The wind can pick these things up super quick, so I don't blame you for losing control of it."
And now she was introducing herself! That was a fast transition but hey, she wasn't complaining. Once again she was in a position to meet someone new; she'd been doing that a lot lately. One of the best perks of the job frankly. "Well how do you do, Niji-chan? Name's Kaisaki Inoue, owner and delivery woman for Golden Sun Direct Deliveries! You can call me Kai though, it's faster!" She held her hand out for a handshake, grinning widely as usual.
Another U.A. student, eh? She'd met so many of those lately, from Fion-kun to Kirk-san to Yumi... maybe it was a good idea to get invested in the next Hero generation considering they all seemed to be such big characters. Kirk in particular had impressed her with his tenacity and strength of will but also his wisdom. He'd given her the idea to apologize to Yumi face to face and... she was going to do it tomorrow. She swore to herself she was going to! Fion had been a little more reserved but the guy had apparently fight Red Horn and lived somehow and he was a nice enough kid, no complaints there. Yumi though...
Well, she didn't have to explain why she was impressed with Yumi.

The Uta stopped bowing over and over again, relieved that the young delivery girl wasn't to mad about the whole situation. The last thing she wanted was an accident caused by her or worse. But then again, she was just probably exaggerating the situation. Maybe it was because she still expected the worse out of every situation. "Still I feel bad about it," Niji said, rubbing the back of her head. "At least let me treat you to ice cream as an apology." It was pretty hot day and she figured that Kaisaki-sama could use something to cool her off.
As she made her way to the ice cream stand, and if Kaisaki-sama followed, Niji asked, "So what is Golden Sun Direct Delivery, Kai-sama? This is my first time hearing of it." Even living in Tokyo City, Niji was still not familiar with all the businesses here and there. More cause she spent of her time in the mansion, away from people. Since coming to UA, she learned that she couldn't be that way. She had to put forth more effort into getting to know others. Some of her encounters were... strange to say the least. But she at least got to try. Hopefully an ice cream cone could make a good friend.
