Chapter 2: A World Of Superheroes


-Mid-Childa-

Right on a ocean bay in central Mid-Childa, Hayate got off her car alongside her tiny partner Reinforce and her longtime friend Shamal. The three couldn't feel a sense of nostalgia just by been there. In front of them was the Long Arch facility, right after the official reassembling of Riot Force 6, the reopening of the facility immediately started (thought it was secretly been worked on before under orders of Chrono to make things go faster). After the JS incident the facility had no other function but to rarely be used by Nanoha for some of her combat drills. Hayate couldn't feel nothing but exited when she arrived to her former office as her desk was already there along with most of her stuff. The place looked almost like how they left it, it was still bit dusty but that could be easily be fixed. It would take a few days for the staff to arrive, which got Hayate a bit worried since they knew the liberation front could attack at any time.

-I just hope nothing bad will happen before we get everyone together

Said Hayate trying to sound as calm as possible, but the other two noticed it easily

-You can't worry about something beyond your control

Replied Shamal, the tiny reinforce nodded at this

-You're right, even so...this place brings so many memories

-I bet the others will be happy as well to come back

-Mou! I can't wait anymore! I wanna see everyone again!

Exclaimed Hayate exited

-22 and she still can act like a child

said Reinforce making her partner flinch

-I do not want to hear that from you!


-At the same time at the Infinity Library-

Nanoha and Fate were visiting their old friend Yuuno Scria. They found him floating in on the roof as he was reading a book which caught him by surprise. The two aces decided to visit him to informed the scholar about the reassemble of the mobile section 6 and how they were going to need his help. They knew that he has not been out in the field for a long time, despite him been one of the strongest defensive mages they've ever met. Now he was the librarian of the infinite library and he was very good at finding all kinds of information which has been very helpful over the years. The three were walking through a large corridor.

-You are making me an non-official member of mobile 6?

Asked Yunno a bit confused as nanoha nodded happily

-Hayate-chan says she wants the best of the best on the squad so she wants you to help us in case of we ever need any information from the library

Replied Fate giving him a warm smile

-Haven't i always been doing that anyways?

-I know that, but it will also help us with our image, if we have everyone from the previous incidents, everyone will be a bit more relaxed

-I would be glad to see you with us Yuuno-kun

Said Nanoha in her sweet tone while blushing a bit, making him blush as well

-O-Okay, but sometimes I'll have to be unavailable though, you aren't the only ones who need me

-which is why you are a non-official member

-okay...but only because you two asked me...


-Earth 0-

In downtown Titan City, a few hours had passed since the alien invasion was stopped and the city was back at peace. Nothing seemed like it had changed after such big event that in any other universe would be considered an historical moment. But this earth was among the most unique in the vast and endless parallel worlds. Sightings of super humans and aliens could easily be found from very early recordings in human history which eventually lead to the superhero bloom in the early 30's. Now in the present time, superheroes are accepted by the public as the defenders of the planet. This costumed individuals have saved the world more times than anyone could imagine, so it wasn't a big surprise that they were usually be the first line of defense against any threat too big for the armies of the world to handle.


-Titan City Public Library-

In one of the oldest and largest buildings of the city, founded in 1855 with one of the biggest collection of books in the country. The young hero Jin was seated in one of it's long tables by himself. He was now in his civilian get up and this was one of his favorite places in the city. His spiky hair was down and his eyes were black. Black were his natural color and it was thanks to his powers he could easily change them to blue. His clothes consisted of a large grey sweater, saggy jeans and very old combers. Just by looking at him, no one would suspect him of been a superhero, it was the intention though since he was one of heroes who didn't wear a mask. He was sitting on a desk by himself as he wrote the report he needed to finish. It was getting late and almost nobody was there anymore, he probably was going to be doing an all-nighter again.

Jin Redfield was one of those students who were slow in school, he was a great student when he put all his focus on his work but he was still nowhere near finishing college at age 23. He was always held back by saving the day as Jin Mirouko, his hero name based on his mothers last name, and also working at minimum wage jobs. At the moment he couldn't focus, for him the library was still a very loud place. It wasn't because people were talking and making constant noise that distracted him. It was the fact that he could hear much clearer than anyone else. Heck! it was above any human on this earth. From the sounds of whispers between friends, the cars driving through the streets, the birds singing and the screams of a helpless woman falling of a building. Nothing special really, oh wait...

-Won't take a few seconds anyways...

He said to himself getting up from his chair and ran to the bathroom

Even Jin find it surprising how nobody not even his friends would ever realize that changing his tone of voice, walking composure, wearing larger clothes to hide his muscular body, change of hairstyle and color of eyes is enough to hide his "secret identity". He never liked to call it that, it wasn't like if his true identity was the man in a costume (or armor in this case). The hero that just saved the woman from falling off her apartment building by flying easily at mach 4 was his job. A pretty cool non-paying job that took too much of his time.

-Oh my god thank you!

Said the woman holding him very tightly while descending to the sidewalk, the few people who saw this applaud for a bit and went on their way. Jin couldn't help to notice this kind of stuff seemed too normal for regular citizens.

-Do people fall off buildings at a regular basis?

He asked himself

-what was that?

-Never mind, just be careful next time...-"wait, how did she fall off in the first place?"

As he went back to the library to pick up his stuff he heard two or three screams of different people calling for help, but quickly managed to hear two of those in danger were saved by other heroes. Thank god this city has about 400 capes defending it, or else his job would be much harder. He was lost in thought for a moment, he still didn't get why he had to do biology or do crazy level math just to transfer to an actual university in an alley, while stopping the bullets from a mugger assaulting a rich girl with his own body. The bullets bounce off him leaving no scratch on his armor, not even the shots aimed at his exposed head would do nothing. The mugger dropped his weapon and tried to run away scared.

-I mean, I'm aiming for an art degree and all...math or biology won't exactly help me in my career in the end...maybe math since that always helps, but not that advanced...

he said to himself as he grabbed the mugger and flew him to the police station

Jin knew he had to go back and work on that paper, it was definitely not going to write itself. After getting a bunch of kisses all over his face by the pretty rich girl (one of the advantages of been a superhero), he was about to fly to the library but again duty called. A mad doctor started attacking the city with his giant robot in the shape of a crab of all things. It reminded the young hero of that time when "Atlantis Pier" was invaded by an alien race of "crab people". That was an actual thing believe it or not. He sighted as he flew into action.


-2 Hours Later-

After teaming up with Gold Eagle, Dragon Fist and Silver Gazelle to defeat the crazy scientist and his robot, Jin with even more allies now had to save the city from an army of technological advanced gorillas from dimension G. Jin sometimes wondered why Tuesdays would bring him such crazy things, specially evil smart gorillas who want to take over the world for no reason. The idea was still not exactly processed on his head. As he faced large gorilla shaped mechs (because why wouldn't they be?) everything was clear to him.

-The universe is telling me that I'm totally putting a all-nighter...sucks...

he said destroying one of the mechs with one punch

Again, this was a typical Tuesday and believe it or not, Wednesdays are worse.


Notes:

This chapter was mostly focused on showing how crazy the world of earth 0 truly is (pretty much like how superhero universers tend to be xD).

Wednesdays are worse since that's when pretty much all major events in any comic happen (since that's the one day of the week comics are released).

I hope you liked this chapter as i slowly but surely will get the main plot started, leave your thoughts so i can see what you guys think of this idea of mine :)
