Prologue
In a different world…
A scientist was trying to advance the world with what they call 'dust', for the betterment of their world. Human and Faunus both. He presumed that his research into Dust and the mysteries behind them would tell him more about its history and creation. But, years of experimenting on it has driven him to the brink of madness. He would get so close to understanding it but come up short as more questions were made then answered.
It was as if someone was pulling the rug out from under him. Out of frustration, he threw all of what he learned into a big pile and activated his semblance, which was a form of power in this world. After his semblance kicked in everything exploded, creating a portal to another dimension.
As this portal formed everything started to break and fade. He stood there in awe of what he had done and, as everything was slowly engulfed in blackness from the portal, he smiled as he closed his eyes and let himself be engulfed.
CHAPTER 1
The original world 10 minutes before the explosion. . .
"YAHOOOO I'M BLACK STAR AND YOU'LL ALL REMEMBER MY NAME CAUSE I'LL SURPASS GOD" A set of TV speakers blared.
The TV resided in a house belonging to three people.
"Can't go wrong with watching anime early in the morning and enjoying the quality of it" One of the residents stated, watching it from the floor in front of the TV.
It was 8AM and he was the only one up. The other two were still sleeping with how early it was.
"It would be amazing if the weekend doesn't end and I could just relax all day without a care in the world" The man said while stretching on the couch.
"Sure that would nice but then you would be called a NEET and we would have to beat you for that Jim." A female voice said, walking into the kitchen in her pajamas.
"Shut up Ashley. You know I wouldn't become one" The man now known as Jim replied, a bit of anger in his voice.
The woman Ashley laughed at his response. She liked to push his buttons and tease him. She went to the fridge to grab some milk to make herself a bowl of cereal.
Suddenly the house started to shake, causing things to shift and fall, from what felt like an earthquake.
"Damn, that was unexpected. Normally that never happens where we live" Ashley said, holding some of the kitchen ware from falling.
SMASH!
"SHIT! Ryan is going to kill me!" Jim whimpered holding a broken fox figurine in his hands.
Ashley laughed at Jim in her head. "That would be sad really, when he comes out and sees his figurine broken. He might just kill you for that. But, I could tell him the truth and you won't get beat to death with your own arm, for a price" Ashley said, a sinister smile on face.
"Hey! That's blackmail! That's not fair!" Jim yelled back.
There was a silent Thoomp sound before a foam dart hit Jim in the forehead followed by a few more hitting this same spot.
"Don't be idiotic. Even though sometimes that would be hard for you Jim" Ryan said, still shooting Jim's face with a Nerf gun.
"An earthquake huh? While surprising I'm also confused on why it happened here and not anywhere else" Ryan said while walking towards the window.
"What do you mean" Asked Ashley while eating some of her breakfast.
Jim walked over to the window and took notice of what Ryan meant.
"Well that is weird." Jim said looking out the window. "We got hit somewhat hard and it knocked down a lot of stuff but nothing looks damaged. No buildings damaged or sirens sounding through the city." Jim said looking over the calm city.
All of a sudden, a screeching sound louder than anything sounded and a giant portal-like hole opened in their living room causing all of them to jump and look at it.
"HOLY SHIT BALLS!" yelled Jim.
"WHAT THE FUCK!?" screamed Ashley.
"SON OF A BITCH!" Ryan yelled.
Everyone backed away from the object and stood there. No-one moved for what felt like 30 minutes but was only a few seconds. They couldn't believe this happened. It was only on TV in movies and shows that something like this would only happen.
Jim was the first to speak in a scared voice, "Alright. I'm going to check it out. If anything happens then Ashley has to come to my funeral and confess she was my secret lover."
Ashley gave Jim the middle finger and faked a laugh, "Bite my ass Jim."
"Hold on Jim" Ryan said grabbing Jim's arm before picking up one of his swords from the table.
Ashley grabbed Jim's Thor Hammer and moved next to Ryan and Jim, "We don't know what this thing is or what it can do."
"I say best way to find out is to poke at it or something and see what happens." Jim said grabbing a sword and slowly inching towards it.
All of a sudden the portal started to change and move around as if alive. Everyone backed further away and watched as it changed. It stopped moving and faded away, disappearing like mist.
"Well then. Maybe we are just imagining things from lack of sleep." Jim said.
"I don't know, I have a bad feeling about this one" Ryan said under his breath.
Suddenly the portal reappeared with a loud bang and started pulling the three towards it like a giant vacuum. Before they could grab or do anything to save themselves they were all sucked into the portal. After they passed through the portal they started to feel like they were being pulled apart from the inside out. They tried to yell to each other but there was no sound in this abyss, only being able to hear their own thoughts.
