(Both Tsu and y/n are children up till the time skip and y/n is gender neutral)
“Tsu come here!” A Child with h/c hair yelled towards their friend.
“Hold on kero” the green-haired girl called trying to arrange her Tinkerbell tea set perfectly on a small wooden table.
“Tsuuu! Hurry I found a butterfly! Y/n shouted excitedly “really?” she tilted her head with no more time to ask questions as Y/n had already run out of patience “you gotta come see it!” they yelled dragging Tsu by the hand.
As they dragged the girl through a small barrier of bushes and into a small clearing of wildflowers “wow it’s so pretty here kero” Tsu stated as she gazed upon the field full of glass-winged butterflies her friend had dragged her to.
“Ooooo Tsu look one landed on my head!” Y/n giggled trying to stay as still as possible “don’t move kero, I’ll get it off” Tsu smiled sticking her tongue out a little as she thought of a solution to move the butterfly.
But then she smiled plucking a flower out of the ground in hopes it would be more appealing to the butterfly than her friend's head. Her plan was in vain as a second butterfly came and landed on the flower.
“Well, that didn’t work kero” both the children giggled as they spent the remainder of the afternoon playing among the butterflies.
-Time Skip-
It had been many years since that wonderful day, and the two children had grown side by side eventually one thing lead to another and they ended up together. Partners on the battlefield and after-hours.
Though as it seemed to go for all UA students things never go as planned, even after graduating many years ago.
“Where is it kero?” Tsu muttered to herself, searching through the small forest behind her childhood home. She had been searching for that very same field, for months, her days off though few were spent walking through the now overgrown terrain she and y/n used to play in.
“It has to be here “ she kept talking to herself wondering if she was ever gonna find it.
But then, there it was the very same field from that blissful afternoon spent amongst the butterflies.
“I found it Kero…” the hero muttered to herself, tears welling up as she carefully walked over the bush barrier that seemed to triple its size.
She ran into the field, scaring off a few butterflies though they never went far. “I found it” she sighed settling into the grass, still as green as it was before, and still overrun with butterflies though now amongst the beautiful glass-winged butterflies from before was a moth.
“We did it Y/n, we found the field” she whispered to herself as the moth came to perch on the hero’s head, just as the butterfly had landed on y/n all those years ago.
Y/n had died almost a year ago today, in a battle that they won at the cost of their own life and saved thousands, but there was nobody, not even Tsu herself that could save y/n from the death that quickly followed.
And so the frog hero sat, reminiscing on and on in the field, and she continued to do so for many years.
“You did it” a person with h/c hair smiled watching the scene with a sad smile before fading, becoming one with the wind.
