A hero to the rescue!
Kotetsu...isn't quite sure what's going on here. His first thought was that this place must be some sort of weird school? A "boarding school", like he's read about in some books. A school far away from home. But there are no teachers - at least, none of the adults will admit to being one. And none of the other kids seem to think it's one.
If he's been kidnapped again, it's a lot more comfortable than last time.
But one thing he does know is that people need his help! It might not be with anything as heroic as stopping a bank robbery or beating up a kidnapper - yet - but they still need his help! And as a (future) hero, he is determined to do whatever he can!
...but feeling like a hero is easier if you have a costume. That's one of the most important things he's learned from TV.
So some people might find Kotetsu out on the lawn one day, a bedsheet in one hand and a pair of scissors in the other, as he industriously works to make a suitable cape and maybe even a mask for himself. The scissors are a bit big and also maybe made for his other hand, but he keeps at it anyway, frowning down at his work with his tongue stuck out just a bit.
In the end, he has a cape that's a bit ragged at the edges, and a domino mask that keeps slipping down over one eye. But it's enough to embolden him to seek out people who might need help!
Or maybe just train his abilities by racing through the hallways really fast. Or trying to carry a Christmas tree from one room to the other. If you should happen to see a twelve year old boy dragging a Christmas tree behind him with one hand, don't bother asking if he needs help. He's got this covered.

no subject
He’s definitely not at home, or even at the boarding school, or visiting with Uncle Maverick. Both his guardian and Samantha are nowhere to be found, but that doesn’t really make him that nervous. It should, but the castle, despite being so strange, gives him the feeling of familiarity.
He can’t really discern why until he steps out into the hallway, just fast enough to catch a child surrounded by blue blur past him. He has to watch him come back the other way before he knows for sure.
It’s hard to tell with how fast he’s going, and he’s a little bit older than he remembers, but there’s no mistaking the other child. Barnaby feels a smile tug at his lips as he activates his own power and speeds off after the other.]
Kotetsu! Kotetsu, wait!
