A Simple Conversation -Tsua Jungle AU-
Night. Normally, no sound comes from it, but tonight is no ordinary night. Aside from the occasional fire crackling: the trees sways with every gust of wind. Crickets and nocturnal creatures crack the earth beneath them as they make low noise. Dew tickles the nostrils of inhabitants and visitors alike. Among them, a quartet of tents huddles around a fire.
One lacks a person.
Izuku, using his whip, climbs a nearby tree. He yawns, his heart and mind racing after today’s events. Izuku could never imagine that he’d be attacked by his former friend of all people. Naturally rattled, he turns to the one thing that helps him sleep: A good book. He plops on a heavy branch, then pulls out his book.
Before he could read, the branch shook. Alarmed, he turns and sees a large figure next to him. Izuku would have screamed, yet a hand covers his mouth. He turns and sighs a breath of relief when he notices the familiar figure.
“Tenya you scared me!” Izuku puts his hand over his chest.
Tenya raises an eyebrow at his friend. Then knuckle walks closer to the boy. The feral teen peers over Izuku's shoulder. His eyes studying the words in front of him. He tilts his head, then looks over at Izuku.
“Oh? This? This is a book!” Izuku grins.
Tenya scowls at him, as if to say ‘I know what it is.’
“Urk, sorry.” Izuku gulps then shows him the cover. “Mr. Might gave it to me. It’s a book on Lost Cities. As you can see, there’s tons of them around the world. Some of the more famous ones include; Machu Picchu, Hubat, Ai-Khanoum-“
Izuku blabs on and on: showing Tenya each of the temples that are known and unknown to the world. Luckily, Tenya's lips slightly part as he raises an eyebrow. Izuku’s hands tingles in response to Tenya’s body language as he keeps going. After all, not very many people showed an interest in what he has to say, save for Ochaco.
Izuku continued to talk, not noticing another presence making his way up the tree. The branch shakes once more. Both Izuku and Tenya turn around. There sits Shoto: getting comfortable on the unusually large branch.
“Shoto!”
“It’s late.” Shoto said.
“Sorry…I couldn’t sleep.” Izuku chuckles nervously.
Shoto sighs and leans over. “A book on Lost Cities?” He raises an eyebrow.
Izuku nods. “I was just telling Tenya about them! Want to join?”
“Hm…” Shoto nods.
“Where was I…” Izuku flips the pages. “Oh here! This lost city is in India. Apparently, it used to be an ancient temple. Mr. Might was planning a trip there, but he had to post pone at as it’s rumored that it maybe cursed-“
“Cursed?”
“Supposedly!” Izuku grins.
“Odd.”
“Not really.” Izuku said. “Harsu Bhram Temple is rumored to have supernatural powers. Which I doubt, but then again, you never know. Especially with what we’ve seen so far-“
Izuku continues to talk. Both Tenya and Shoto listening to the Archeologist go on about the temples. Every once in a while, a tree would creek in the wind. The creek did nothing to dissuade the conversation. A conversation that may last throughout the night.

Silence.
Little Tenya shivers at the small hole. How could this day have gone wrong? He was just gathering some food. He didn’t mean for a leopard to attack him! It was his fault for not remaining vigilant! Now, his big brother is paying the price for his carelessness.
Hot tears tricks from Tenya’s eyes. How can he defend himself now? He’s only a child! Who knows what sorts of monsters are hiding in the dark, lush greenery? Tenya crouches down and hugs his knees. His throat tightens, feeling like it’s closing.
A rustle.
Tenya’s heart leaps to his chest. Dark golden fur with dark spots appears first. Then, a loud grunt. The lump of fur tumbles to the side: revealing the slightly scarred elder brother. His arm covered in blood that isn’t his, and his broken knife is nowhere in sight. He trembles at the sight, Tensei no longer looks himself.
Rather…he acts and appears almost primal.
An inhuman growl rumbles Tensei’s throat as he turns his head. Tenya swallows his saliva, trembling and squeezing his eyes shut. His brother, his elder brother, he’s never seen him so scary. Yet…his heart slows it’s frantic beats.
He opens his eye again. Now Tensei stands tall.
Tenya remains still as Tensei gazes back down. His eyes widen at the sight. With all of his strength, Tensei lifts up the massive cat over his head, and bellows out victory cry. Birds caws and flaps away from the sudden cry, followed by roars and hollers from other animals. A victory cry that leaves its first mark in the jungle.
For the first time, the jungle heeds Tensei’s call.
