(Madara POV)
Walking downstairs to where my two adoptive parents were, I began to think of the call I just had with Gran Torino. Honestly, I should've expected such a thing to happen, but it's still bothersome.
Still kind of irritating that just because I'm a student, I should help out my fellow classmates when they're in need of some assistance. Of course there could be times where I'll comply if I'm bored and don't find whatever problem troublesome, but other times I'll flat out refuse.
It doesn't mean I'm an asshole, but I just like minding my own business (most of the time). And as someone who keeps things to themselves, you could imagine how provoking it is to have someone ask you for a favor and expect you to comply just like that.
Of course I would help if I'm actually friends with the person, but I barely even talk to Izuku. No, not barely. I actually don't remember even having a full blown conversation with the kid. So why would he think I would accept sparing with him?
We're not friends, but then again, Izuku even considers a boy who bullied him and told him to kill himself as a friend of sorts.
Now that I'm thinking about it, there must be something seriously wrong with him. He seems like the type of person who would befriend anyone who is the least bit nice to him, or gave him some attention. Except villains of course.
Being so nice to your childhood bully and the one who constantly torments you for no reason whatsoever. I don't get it at all.
The more I thought about it, the more I realized how sad it actually was, but there's no use in thinking about it anymore.
I can just pity him from a distance.
I just hope Izuku is the last person that would bother me like this, but I know it's just wishful thinking.
With my unique and strange abilities, I'll naturally attract unwanted attention. I can't complain about having tons of eyes on me though, but I do find having some fame annoying.
It's easy for some people to just accept their growing popularity, but not for me. Of course it wasn't too much of a problem, but still. In my past life, I was a completely normal teenager. So in this new life, everything was so different to me, and I will have new experiences I'll have to adapt to as time goes on.
Arriving at the cozy and completely clean living room, I walked up to Aiko who was sitting close to Jun, and handed her phone back.
"So...what did you guys talk about?" My adoptive father questioned to me. I was sure they knew exactly what Gran Torino wanted and why he even bothered to talk to me, but I'm guessing they want to know what I specifically told the old man.
"It's nothing too serious. He wanted me to help his intern, but I denied him." I told the two of them as I sat down on the comfortable sofa.
"Why would you do that Madara? Unless what you have planned to do later is very important, I don't see why you couldn't help the man out for a bit." Aiko questioned me with a confused and curious expression on her face.
I couldn't blame her for asking this at all.
My words make it seem like I was some douchebag for not complying with Gran Torino, but I'm sure if Aiko and Jun knew the full extent of the situation, they'd understand where I was coming from.
"He wanted me to help some kid I've barely talked to before, for something unnecessary as well. So it would have just been a waste of my time." I explained to the two of them, getting a nod in return.
"It seems to me like you don't do well with a.d.u.l.ts Madara. It's always been like that since you were a little kid." Jun suddenly said with a slight chuckle, getting Aiko to coo.
Yes, what my father said was right. Well only sort of. Even when I was younger, I denied the pro heroes and tutors my parents brought in to train/teach Momo and I.
At that time, Momo was the little girl who followed what her brother does, so she refused them as well.
That was around the time that I suggested training by myself, also when Daisuke (my martial arts teacher) was introduced to me.
Daisuke was a rare case though. My parents 100 percent trusted him, and he was someone who could actually train me. It also helped that he was a good guy as well.
Now back to what Jun said; I wouldn't say that I disliked a.d.u.l.ts, but only the ones that I get bad vibes from. Maybe I'm just paranoid from reading and watching so much novels, anime and movies with a lot of manipulative a.d.u.l.t characters. It wasn't just in fiction though, but in real life.
Coming into this world, I would always remind myself to be wary of anyone. Because no matter how a person may look on the outside, they could be a vile and disgusting person in secret, and you wouldn't even know it.
For all I know, All Might could secretly be a lolicon, and All For One is a woman using a transformation quirk!
Now it's not like I dislike all a.d.u.l.ts, because that would just be childish. For example, I feel like I could sit down and have a good conversation with Aizawa. Yes, class 1-A homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa. Even All Might too, but mostly because I respect his strength and power.
"Jun, now you're making me remember when he was just this tall!" Aiko said as she raised her hand right below her hip, making me remember how short I was, and how time has flown by so quickly.
Before my father could even reply to Aiko, I interrupted by saying "It's not like I don't do well with a.d.u.l.ts, but some of them will probably try to get to me by attempting to sway you..."
My parents were very smart. Judging by the realization in their face, they understood what I was getting at. I'm sure they understand from my show of power that one time, that anyone with some intentions for me would possibly try to get through them first.
Aiko and Jun didn't know this, but Nezu was a perfect example of that possibility. Of course he didn't go that far since I caught him, but he would've most definitely tried it.
"Don't worry Madara. There's no need to worry about this." Aiko said seriously, getting me to raise an eyebrow. After all, it was pretty rare to see my mother get so serious. Well not exactly rare, but uncommon. Any problem that involves her children, she get completely serious about.
Seeing Jun nod in agreement,I let them think some more over my words. Although I knew my parents weren't stupid to let anyone manipulate them, I still wanted to tell them.
Now that I explained my part, I planned to ask my parents about something that just crossed my mind.
"How exactly do you know Gran Torino? Are you guys old friends or something?" I questioned, getting their complete attention.
Although Aiko and Jun knew a lot of people, the amount of said people they actually knew to a personal level was extremely low. Now I could be wrong because I don't specifically know everything that's going on in their lives, but I'm sure just not everyone can call my mother on her personal phone.
Observing their reaction to my question, I noticed how they looked at each other, almost like they were planning something. Not as if they were going to figure out a suitable lie to tell me, but as in who was going to explain what I just asked.
My parents weren't liars, that I was sure of. Of course they'll sometimes refrain from giving me some information I might ask, but this wasn't the case right now.
"Hmm, well your mother and I have befriended some pro heroes and other people you most likely might not know of. You never know when we need a favor, and it's the same with them." Jun explained to me.
"We're not exactly friends with them, per se, but they're people we could go to if we need a certain job done." Aiko said with a nod. Most likely thinking that she explained it well to me.
And she did.
Ah, well I guess that made sense. Honestly, with the way Aiko worded it, I would've thought that she and Jun had some shady people on speed dial to kill anyone they didn't like; but I know my parents aren't the type of people to do that sort of stuff.
Having heard enough, I got up from the sofa and walked towards the front door. I know Nemuri had told me she'd be finished in about 30 minutes, but I could start walking to her house right now.
Yes, walking instead of jumping building to building. Sometimes it just felt nice to enjoy the peaceful air while having a stroll. Of course it would be better if my girls were with me while doing it, but sadly I can't just kidnap them from their agencies.
Well, if they asked for it...
"Are you finally leaving Madara? Who are you going to hang out with?" Aiko questioned me as she realized that I was walking towards the front door. She had also noticed my state of dress, so it wasn't hard for her to conclude that I was leaving.
'Woah, calm down mother. You sounded way too excited there.'
Maybe leaving the house earlier than intended was a good idea. Because now, I can finally give them the privacy they wanted. It's weird though. They never care if me and my girls were at home when they had their 'sessions'. I could only guess that today is some sort of special day.
"I'm going out with friends. I'll most likely not be here until late afternoon, or even night." I said. I didn't bother mentioning that I was going on a date, because I'm sure Aiko would've made me explain.
—————————
(Regular POV)
When Madara said he was going out with friends, Aiko and Jun looked at him in surprise. How could they not? What their son had just said was too abnormal for them.
"D-Did I hear that right Jun? Did Madara just say he was going out with friends?" Aiko questioned as she turned to look at her husband.
"I heard it too, but it can't possibly be true, right? Our son most definitely does not have friends. I have always remembered him to be a loner who only ever talked to girls that caught his interest!" Jun said to his wife.
Hearing his parents words, Madara stopped walking and turned to them. Yes he understands that he's not one to interact with other kids, but Aiko and Jun just made it sound like he was a loser.
"If it's really true, then I'm happy for our son." Aiko said with a beautiful smile.
Nodding in agreement, Jun looked at Madara and said "If you ever want to bring them over, feel free to do so!"
It looks like he wanted to meet the people who his son had befriended. Unfortunately, Madara had lied. He wasn't going to meet up with some friends, but a horny thick 30 year old woman.
Shaking his head, Madara turned back.
"Goodbye..." He had said before he opened the door and walked out of it.
'*Sigh* it's true I don't really have any friends, but I could think of a few that I could tolerate. Like Todoroki. He wasn't a sore loser about me defeating him, and he doesn't seem like the type that'll pester you for something. Tokoyami as well. He seems pretty chill.' Madara thought to himself as he walked to the front gates.
'Speaking of chill, the weather today isn't as hot as before, but it's still pretty comfortable.' The Uchiha said in his mind before he henged into a regular, average looking teenager.
Today he wanted to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of walking to Midnight's house with no interruption, so he disguised himself with his transformation jutsu.
'I don't always have to jump building to building. I could try flying with my susanoo wings as transportation, but that's too noticeable.
Well I would've been able to fly perfectly normal if I had the Rinnegan...I wish I had the Rinnegan.'
Sighing once again, Madara opened the front gates, and then walked towards the direction of Midnigt's location.
