Genya is now used to walking around without Someone holding his hand , the only thing he lack is speaking now, he went to the bookstore with mitsuki about a week ago , he was more interested in books thats leaning towards teenagers and adults, mitsuki of course didnt really allow him to buy it, but he knew she wont so instead of wasting their time going to the bookstore and not even buying anything , genya decide to buy a book for those who wanted to teach their children how to speak
Once they got home genya quickly run up to his room and began to read, yes suprisingly , genya can read.
He is pretty talented for a 3 year old , he can buy groceries on his own ,read, write, and not even scared of kids version of horror
People who encountered genya think he is an old soul in a Childs body...which is..somewhat true.
Him and his caretaker gyomei also began to play more , gyomei is still havent recognize genya , which what genya really wanted right now... He want someone from his time to recognize him, and thats why he wanted to learn how to speak.though ..due to him always read in the reading corner , he didnt really have... A chance to make friends other than gyomei, izu and his brother
He always gets shy and pretty nervous when it comes to children asking him to play , he always run away and hides behind gyomei for comfort which the big man always give him.
~~
"Seriously itsu, why cant you make friends for once?" Katsuki spoke out as he start eating his lunch , genya sweatdropped as he looked down at his bento
"I know you wanna stick with me and Izu, but what if izu and me got sick once day and you'll be alone? I mean theres that bear monster who you always play with but what if he also got sick?" Katsuki frowned as he speak with his mouth full
'i want to learn how to speak first...after that maybe i can talk with the other childrens and play with them..' genya shook his head as he began to munch on his lunch
"Kaachan is right itsu! I dont really want you to be alone..." Izuku joined in as he ate his allmight theme bento
Katsuki looked around and sees a lonely kid eating his lunch all the way in the corner , ah he remembers now, the kid always get made fun of because he look slightly fatter than the other kids...
Katsuki stopped eating before walking towards the kid
"Hey you! Whats your name?"
The kid looked up towards katsuki before looking down again, he is scared that a kid like katsuki will make fun of him , he is well known for teasing other kids after all...
"...it's ...it's tsubasa-"
"Nice to meet you tsubasa! My name is katsuki! Wanna have lunch with me and friends? You look lonely!"he said as he lend out his hand to him
Tsubasa looked at him before nodding slowly , he took his bento as katsuki smiled and wrap his arm around his shoulder
"Come on! I want you to meet my baby brother itsu!" He pointed at genya
"He's pretty lonely too so i was wondering if you can be his friend!"
Tsubasa looked at genya and tilt his head
Hm...he's... A Interesting fellow
"He looked weird." Tsubasa said bluntly , katsuki eyes widened before crossing his arms
"What did you say about my brother?!" He asked , tsubasa panicked and closed his mouth
"No no! Im kidding! He looks cool-"
"Atleast my brother had hair not like your bald head!" Katsuki spat ,genya sweatdropped as he sank down and hides under the table to eat his bento
Now tsubasa and katsuki are having kids fist fight , izuku trying to get katsuki off of tsubasa while tsubasa is trying to kick katsuki
Gyomei took notice as he approached them putting his arms in between them as he seperate them "children! No fighting please! Whats seem to be the problem?"
"Bear monster! He called itsu weird!" Katsuki yelled
"He called my head bald!" Tsubasa yelled back
"BUT YOU DO HAVE A BALD HEAD IDIOT!" Katsuki yelled back again
Gyomei sighed before patting both of their heads with his giant hands
"Now now children..listen carefully , just because you find someone's appearance weird you cannot tell them that, you can however ask them why they look the way they are respectfully , we cannot however make fun of their appearance and yell at them for the way they are,understand?"gyomei explained softly
Katsuki grumbled as he looked away as tsubasa only nodded , gyomei smiled as he give the two children a big hug
"Im glad you all understand, make sure you remember my words when you get older alright?"
Katsuki nodded as he and tsubasa shook hands...not because they forgive each other or anything, gyomei just told them to do it.
Katsuki looked under the table to see little genya already finishing his bento
"Itsu! You finish yet???"katsuki asked , genya looked up and nodding his head while smiling , that bento is the most delicious thing he ever tasted
~~
Now break time had started , itsu/genya began to walk where gyomei is , he often do that since he likes hearing his mentor gyomei being more chatty than the usual gyomei he knew
And also since katsuki is so damn loud.
"Ah youre here again itsuki.." gyomei smiled as he picked up genya and out him on his lap
" Do you like to hear me talk that much little one??"he asked , genya nodded happily as they both again stared off to the childrens playing
"Why dont you play with the others? Are you perhaps shy??" He asked again , genya shyly sunk his head against gyomei's beefy arms , gyomei chuckles as he pat his head
"Theres no need to be shy about...im sure someone wants to be your friend...theres also your brother and izuku right? Why didnt you play with them?"
Genya shook his head as he closed his ears , gyomei nodded , understanding what he meant "they're too loud huh? I see i see.."
' not only that you seem to be the only one who understood me himejima san' genya sighed as he rest his head againt gyomei's arm
'...i wonder....what kind of quirk does himejima san has? I mean...this is a world where its common to have a quirk...'
"Itsu there you are! Kaachan have been looking for you!" Izuku suddenly shouted as the little boy approached gyomei and genya
"Ah! Mr.himejima!hello!" Izuku said as he gave gyomei a little wave before sitting next to them
"Ah hello izuku, wheres katsuki?" Gyomei smiled before patting izuku's head, izuku only shrugged and joins in with the staring
"Mr himejima , whats your quirk?" Izuku asked Curiously stars filling his eyes , gyomei chuckled "my quirk? Ah well..." He picked up little genya and gently put him down on the bench, he knelt down and put his arm on the ground
Suddenly the ground began to shook a little as cracks could be seen on his forearm
'that mark.....it looks like the same as the demon slayer mark!' genya eyes widened as he leaned closer to see what gyomei going to do
Gyomei lift his arm from the ground , the ground shook a little before a small chunk of it start to float , it breaks into pieces before shaping itself into a cat , the finished piece falls into gyomei's hand as he showed the two
"I can manipulate earth and turned it into any shape i desire , i can also make them move" he smiled before patting the cat shape stone head , the stone began to act like a cat
Izuku gasped excitedly "wow thats....THATS SO COOL!!" he yelled , genya covered his eyes from the shout as he also smiled
'...its truly is amazing...'
~~
Genya decide to go home by himself , since their house was pretty close to the daycare , it was pretty easy to remember which way he have to go , despite masaru concerns of genya's safety, mitsuki let him go home alone
As genya was casually walking through the neighborhood , a sudden scream can be heard , genya looked towards where the sound came from and decide to follow it
He heard.. tsubasa's voice followed by....a dog barking??
"Someone help! This dog wont leave me alone!!" The poor boy shouted , genya sweatdropped when tsubasa was just getting chased by a puppy.. well he is still a kid afterall...
It reminds him of the dog he and sanemi used to take care of...
...
He's not going to just stand there and let the poor boy cry right?
..
Yeah maybe.
Tsubasa noticed genya around the corner as he reach out his hand "itsuki! Please help me!"
Genya stared at tsubasa before walking away , which tsubasa let out a scream, genya sweatdropped as he looked around
'damn this kid wont shut the hell up will he?! He wake the whole neighborhood ...!'
Genya grumbled before running towards tsubasa and just casually picked up the puppy , the puppy stopped barking , tsubasa stared at genya before standing up
"Thank you! If you didnt help me i would've died by the hands of that dog!" Tsubasa laughed nervously
'...ehhhh dying to this adorable thing is a bit much , youre overreacting dude..' genya sweatdropped
"And uhm..sorry for calling you weird back there.."
Genya shook his head before turning and walked away from tsubasa with the puppy
"W-wait your not angry are you? I hope we can still be friends!" Tsubasa shouted, genya just ignored it and walked back home
~~
"Itsuki! You're back- wait who's dog is that?!" Masaru shouted worriedly as he took the puppy from genya's arms ,the pup barked happily as it began to roll around
"Itsuki.. you didnt steal this dog did you..?" Masaru asked , genya shook his head , the man sighed before picking him up
"Still you cant just pick a random dog on the streets like that.... Maybe the dog had a home, and look at you, you look dirty! Lets give you a bath shall we?" The man softly smiled
Genya pouted before shooking his head , masaru chuckled and just give little genya some kisses on the cheeks
"No no , my little boy is dirty , he needs a bath!" The man said before grabbing a towel
~~
.
.
.
.
After genya and katsuki gotten their bath , dinner and finished their homework , now they just need to fall asleep , of course genya being a good kid , always fall asleep easily while katsuki fell asleep in about 2 hours later.
Genya slowly closed his eyes as he finished reading a book about quirks history
.

......
'This..void again'
Genya looked down at his hands..hum , he's his original self again..
'why am i always end up here anyway?'
A faint voice can be heard through the void as genya began to walk around , genya raised an eyebrow as he tried to walk towards where the voice came from
".......sama-...tanjirou-... letters!"
'huh? What? Tanjirou?'
He sees a faint light behind him , he grumbled as he shook his head
'no dont follow that , that'll wake me up. I need to follow that voice instead.'
Genya continue to walk as the voice began to get clear and clear , his eyes began to become heavy as it closed out of nowhere
.
.
"Shinazugawa-sama,hope im not bothering you , but these are the letters from tanjirou!"
'eh?'
Genya eyes widened as he looked at his surrounding...this place...it feels...familiar
"Like i said just leave it here, and also just tell him to not expect me to write back, cant you see i dont have enough fingers to write?"
...
'nemi?'
Genya now is standing behind his brother sanemi..he look....quite ill, he's just talking with a kakushi who's holding a pile of letters..must be from tanjirou
'..wait no way...'
"Ah! Alright! Ill let tanjirou know..." The kakushi sweatdropped as they gently put the letter down and left
Sanemi huffed as he picked up the letters
"Seriously when this kid going to stop bothering me...?" He grumbled as he began to read the letters, a smile forming on his face
Genya was speechless..is he back home? Can his brother see him? Genya walked towards sanemi and just sat next to him
"Can you believe this shit? Heh.." sanemi let out a chuckle
"...damn it genya...you're missing out a lot..." Sanemi picked up another letter and continue to read
Genya frowned as he tried to see what his brother reading
".. heh seems like nezuko missed you a lot genya...she's been visiting your grave lately..." He mumbled , genya cheeks turned pink as he leaned closer to read
'wait...nezuko missed me? Why??'
"....damn it.." sanemi sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose with his other hand as he out down the letters next to him
"....you could'be leave the corps and find a wife... Have a family...why risk yourself to something like this...? I should've been there for you to the very end...and maybe been a little nicer to you.." he whispered as tears began to fall
"Ugh this guilt shit is screwing up with my brain...wheres that annoying uzui when you need him?" He chuckled as he wiped the tears off
"See genya ? Your nemi is not a lonely person...i have friends now...even though i might have...a short life" he turned his head next to him as his eyes widened
Wait..
Can he..
See him?
".....genya?"
Genya eyes widened as the brothers stared at each other before genya giving him a slight wave
".....hi...nemi-" before genya could even say hi to him he felt like he was getting pulled away , he tried to grabbed on to sanemi, but the man is just too shocked to even do anything, all he sees is just genya vanishing after saying hi
Genya was pulled back to the void , genya groaned as he held his head
'damn it DAMN IT WHY?! I...I WANT TO SEE HIM AGAIN!'
' i cant wake up now..! I- i want to see hows nemi is doing! I-
Itsuki! Wake up!
No! Fuck off!leave me alone!
Wake up baby bro! Its breakfast!
who gives a shit?! I need to leave now!
Wait-
Genya then felt he was being pulled again , this time towards the light , genya screamed as loud as he can
.
.
.
.
.
!!!!
~~
Little genya suddenly woke up and jolted out of his bead screaming
Which suprised katsuki as he fell from his bed letting out a small oof
"Ouch!- Itsuki you alright?!" Katsuki asked worriedly as he approached little genya
Genya looked around panicked as he tried to calm himself down
"Did you get a bad dream?" He asked , genya shook his head as he finally calmed down
"Katsu...i- im f-ine.."
...
..
.
"... ITSUKI DID YOU JUST SPEAK?!"
katsuki yelled out
......
Eh?
