Mama Yang Hero Academia-46

"Merlin, let them in please, Yang and I are owing them an explanation." Blake sighed while still holding Eri.

"My parents are here to." Bakugo said as Mitsuki and Masaru joined the group.

"Sorry for the delay, we just had finished giving Child-Services a piece of our minds." Mitsuki said.

"All right, I suppose the others told you what they heard All-for-One say huh?" Blake asked.

"They did, could you please help us make sense of it?" Uraraka asked.

"Well, I suppose we should start from the beginning." Blake sighed. "You listen closely to Eri, you're gonna learn this sooner or later."

"Yes Mama." Eris said.

"Before I begin though, you all gotta swear that whatever is said in this room, stays in this room." Blake said.

"We swear." All of them said.

"All right, so to put it simply, Katsuki, everything you heard All-for-One say, was true. The following list of people I mention, are from a world called Remnant." Blake began. "Myself for starters, Yang, Scythe, Ruby, Weiss, Pyrrha, Penny, Velvet, Nora, my parents, Qrow, Summer, Jotaro, Gwenom, Barry, Hikage, Adam Taurus, Grey Fullbuster, and Cinder."

"W-wait, you mean you're aliens?" Jiro questioned.

"That would explain why Yang liked my Alien Queen, hero name." Ashido said.

"If it helps you to cope, then I suppose you could say we are." Blake sighed.

"What are you doing here then?" Mitsuki asked.

"Now that is simplest to answer." Blake chuckled. "We're all victims of the League of Villains. Yang, Scythe, and myself, were the first people from Remnant Kurogiri kidnapped. But Yang managed to disrupt Kurogiri's warping, which lead us to meeting with All Might. Right now, he should be telling the faculty about our origins as well."

"So, Yang and Ruby aren't actually his daughters?" Shoji questioned.

"At first now, not by blood. But during the ten months before the exam, Yang and Scythe came to see All Might as a father and grandfather figure. Then, after Eri became a part of the family, things changed." Blake stated.

"What do you mean, things changed?" Masaru asked.

"Remember what Venom did to make me your biological daughter?" Weiss questioned, at which they nodded. "Well, Venom did the same thing to Yang with All Might's DNA, and when she was done incubating, Venom did the same thing to Scythe and Eri, making them both blood related to All Might."

"So, they are biologically related to All Might?" Todoroki questioned.

"Yes, though the media only sees Eri as adopted, but she's biologically mine and Yang's daughter." Blake explained.

"So wait, what about the backstory and news article involving Scythe's conception?" Uraraka questioned.

"Unfortunately, to keep suspicion off us, I… we had to come up with a cover story. We have no way of getting home, so we didn't have much choice. In all honesty, Scythe didn't start out related to either Yang or myself." Blake said turning to see Scythe curled up in Yang's left arm. "Scythe was an orphan, and Yang adopted him when he was still a boy, bringing him in before Venom did to her what she did for Weiss, and the only Quirk she has is the strength one she got from becoming All Might's blood related grandchild."

"So what are her other abilities?" Kaminari questioned.

"The kinetic absorption clones, are what we call a Semblance, a physical manifestation of one's soul. Similar to a Quirk, someone can either develop their own unique Semblance or they inherit it from one of their parents, or it can become a combination of both." Blake exclaimed. "For Scythe, it was a combination of both mine and Yang's. But the Etherion Godslayer, as well as all our Dragonslayer abilities, that's magic. Pure unfiltered magic that flows through us. An' Scythe is even more special, because her magic was evolved by the Goddesses of Remnant. She was chosen to become their Champion."

"An' those Grimm?" Katsuki asked. "What are they?"

"Soulless creatures with the desire to wipe out humanity. They have a ruler, a Queen if you will. Her name is Salem, and she's very bad news. Grey is one of her underlings, and he's wanting to turn her into a weapon for Salem's cause of destroying humanity." Blake explained.

"So why not just kill her and end it all?" Katsuki asked.

"That won't work." Blake sighed. "Salem is immortal, she can't die, and she can't be killed, at least not by normal means. But there's a problem of getting to her even if she were killable."

"What would that be?" Kirishima questioned.

"There's a man, the very man who helped conceive Scythe, her original father before the whole DNA changing fiasco Venom did came to light. His name is Acnologia, he was dead long before he realized Scythe had been conceived. He was a Dragonslayer just like me, and just like Yang, however he's an Etherion Dragonslayer. He had been dead for nearly a decade, but Salem brought him back to life, and he's just like her, more immortal than ever. Before he was only immortal to the effects of time, he could still be killed by any means of weaponry, but now that he's just like Salem, nothing can kill him." Blake explained. "He's over four hundred years old, and is a genocidal maniac. He believes all dragons, including Dragonslayers, don't have a place among him in the world, like he's the only one deserving to be alive."

"That's just wrong." Mitsuki exclaimed.

"An' Scythe is related to that psycho?" Mineta questioned.

"Not anymore. But if you're concerned any of us will become like him, we won't. Acnologia bathed in the blood of countless dragons, and had a mental breakdown. But there is a chance that anyone with Dragonslayer Magic, can turn into an actual dragon. The question is whether or not we'll be able to return to being who we were before, in terms of our bodies. Even the creator of Dragonslayer Magic, had been turned into a dragon, because of her dragon seed."

"Dragon seed?" Tokoyami asked.

"It's the source of the Dragonslayer's Magic. The more one uses their Dragonslayer Magic, the deeper into their soul, the Dragon Seed is planted." Ruby explained. "The only way to stop it, is to take a special treatment of a carefully measured Dust mixture of different elements, since we don't have dragons to merge with our souls to alter them."

"Is that what you've been drinking every morning Weiss?" Mitsuki asked, looking at the former Schnee.

"Yeah. The mixture is very complex, but needed, so I make a month's supply of it every week. I estimate the final treatment will be needed right before graduation." Weiss exclaimed.

"Alright that raised even more questions. What is this Dust stuff you're talking about?" Katsuki asked.

"You know those elemental crystals I come home with once a week?" Weiss asked, to which Katsuki nodded. "Those. On Remnant, there's a special type of clean energy propellant called Dust. Normally ingesting it or any matter of putting it in your body is a risky or lethal move. But there are the exceptional few that it doesn't have that kind of effect on. Like Dragonslayers."

"Dust can also be used for ammunition. We actually have a Dust Garden we harvest from once a week, in our backyard." Blake explained. "It was Scythe who discovered that we can naturally grow Dust as if it were a vegetable. She actually eats Fire Dust like candy because they apparently taste like strawberries."

"The SDC, Schnee Dust Company, was the largest Dust Manufacturing Company, within Remnant, though its reputation was ruined when Jacques Schnee married into the name, and took over after my grandfather passed away. There are two different races of sentient intelligence on Remnant, human and Faunus. Qrow, Summer, and Grey, are human, Penny is an android, while everyone else is a Faunus. Before Jacques took over, Faunus were treated as equally paid employees like normal people, but when he did take over, he started forcing the Faunus to work for less than peanuts. That, along with his abusive behavior, is what had caused my former mother to become an alcoholic." Weiss explained.

"So, let me see if I got this right. Everyone you mentioned in your list is from another planet…" Kirishima began. "Scythe is the former child of an immortal genocidal maniac who want so kill you, you're all another race entirely, Weiss is a former Heiress to a billion dollar company, you're able to eat an unstable echo friendly fuel that is lethal to most, and you're all victims of kidnapping. Have I missed anything?" Kirishima questioned.

"We're technically from another dimension, Remnant's currency is known as Lien, Scythe is the Champion of not one, but two deity sisters, we use Dragonslayer Magic, as well as a soul manifested power called a Semblance, and we could turn into actual Dragons at any moment if we go too far with using our magic." Ruby listed off. "But other than that, you're spot on."

"All right then, we got our answers and we're satisfied with that." Mitsuki said. "Katsuki, Weiss, c'mon we're going home."

"You're not gonna scream and call us freaks, or kick me out?" Weiss asked.

"Why would we?" Masaru asked. "You didn't choose to come here, and you didn't choose your abilities, you're just victims of unfortunate events affecting you, without any control over them. Now c'mon, we're having Beef Stew for dinner."

"I'm hoping we'll see Scythe in class again soon." Iida smiled.

"Yeah, so take care. Also, she has a dance lesson with me next week, so if she's up for it, send her my way." Ashido smiled.

The entirety of Class 1-A gave their farewells and a positive statement as they left, leaving Blake baffled. She had expected them all to hate her, but none of them did, they were just letting it go, and giving her positive feedback and to keep her chin up. The only one to stay behind was Ruby, as Jack went back with Katsuki and his parents.

"Well, that went well." Ruby smiled.

"A lot better than I thought it would." Blake sighed, as she held Eri tightly. "I don't think they actually believed all of it though."

"Mama, it's okay. I know you love me, and I know you were concerned, but everything turned out to be okay." Eri smiled as she began to nod off.

"Oh they believed you all right, they're just needing time to process all the information is all." Escanor said. "Though I can't help but notice you didn't mention the truth about One-for-All."

"How did you…" Ruby began.

"One-for-All is one of the only two powers that when used to its full potential, can rival my own." Escanor said. "All Might didn't share the secret with me, but Merlin did find out the truth about One-for-All through magical means."

"What's the other Quirk?" Blake asked.

"All-for-One." Escanor said.

"Of course it is." Blake sighed looking to the sleeping Scythe and Yang. "I'm just hoping All Might is having better luck with the faculty members."


~U.A Faculty Conference Room~

"An' there you have it. That's the truth behind the origins of every single person I listed off." Toshinori said standing in front of his coworkers with Rei standing in the back in the corner, while Ghira was not anywhere within the room.

"So, the girl you had claimed as your daughter was kidnapped from another dimension when Kurogiri, the League of Villain's Warp Gate, wore a Quirk Enhancement collar, and tried to forcefully recruit them to their cause?" Nezu questioned.

"Yessir." Toshinori said. "I apologize for lying to you about who she actually was. An' I apologize for deceiving you all. I hope you can forgive me."

"All Might." Midnight said standing up. "You didn't do anything wrong. All you did was help some scared and confused teens find their places in a world that was foreign to them. Yes we may be a bit surprised by this revelation, but none of us are surprised about why you did it. You're a hero through and through, so hold your head up high. You've got nothing to be sorry for."

"Indeed, as far as I'm aware, you're still the same All Might that to this day, has kept a smile on everyone's faces." Nezu exclaimed.

"Yeah man, nobody is perfect, not even you, and we all know that. So there's no need for you to feel sorry." Present Mic smiled. "Still, it's a shame to see you retire from the hero business."

"I know, but after seeing Yang defeat my arch nemesis in my stead, I realized that the next Generation of Heroes, is in good hands." Toshinori said. 'Not to mention the fact that the last remnants of One-for-All left my body soon after the fight between Yang and All-for-One ended.'

"Now that we've got all that out of the way. Let's get down to business regarding the school." Nezu said.

"I'll take that as my cue to take my leave." Rei said. "I'll see you at home Toshi."

"Now then." Nezu smiled as Rei left. "First off, I wanna officially say this. Thank you, All Might. You've saved thousands of lives over these many years though it cost you your body and strength. As a citizen, a Hero, and a Principal, I cannot express how grateful we all are to you. However, given everything that's happened, there are many who believe you should not continue as a teacher at U.A. Some are pointing out that our troubles began when you started working here. They're worried the children will continue to be caught in the crossfire and that you can't protect them anymore. It is a delicate situation, never the less, I know exactly what to do to ease the concerns the public has expressed. We must strengthen the faith in the heroes we have left. It's true, the threat we face is still troubling, but we will protect and train with more diligence and focus than ever before. That is why we're going to implement a plan I've had in mind for a while." Nezu said sliding a piece of paper towards him and Aizawa. "I'm counting on you to convince the student's families. Mr. Belladonna already has his list of the student's addresses, but it goes without saying that Ms. Nikos will most assuredly be attending still."

"That she will be, as she is under my care and protection." Toshinori said.


~Next Day: Jiro Household~

"I don't know, sounds pretty out of tune to me." Kyoka's dad exclaimed. "I get that you guys don't wanna keep talking about what happened, but moving the kids into dorms, isn't going to change the fact that my daughter was injured."

"What you're saying is quite true Mr. Jiro, however I'd like to assure you that this is not a matter of U.A's Pride. We've thought long and hard on the issue, and thought this to be the best course of action." Aizawa said. "I hope that you'll give us the honor to keep teaching Kyoka. I believe whole hearted that that U.A can help her grow into the best hero that she can be."

"Whoa, no need for you to be all formal Mr. Aizawa. We decided what we were going to do right after we got the notice in the mail. I mean you should have heard my old man during Huntress's fight." Kyoka smiled. "He literally screamed out, my daughter's classmate is so hard core man, that battle field is a stadium and is rocking it down, it was hilarious." She laughed. "Yeah I'm pretty sure he was crying."

"Kyoka come on." Mr. Jiro said. "I was trying to act all strict and stuff for these dudes."

"Oh chill dad." Kyoka chuckled.

"Hey, cut it out you two, save the aggression for your music." Mrs. Jiro said.


~Car ride~

"You know, I thought the parents would come down on us a lot harder." Aizawa stated sitting on his side of the backseat of the car. "I suppose I owe you a drink."

"No thanks. I can't drink, gotta stay a good example for Scythe, otherwise Child-Services would come down harder on Yang and Blake." Toshinori chuckled.

"How is that going by the way?" Aizawa asked. "Fuyumi came by my Agency a while ago and I signed the petition for keeping Yang and Blake as Scythe and Eri's parents."

"Now that you mention that, it's actually gone pretty good. After I retired, she got a lot more signatures than just the Top10 Pro Heroes." Toshinori smiled. "She handed it into Child-Services last night, and I got a call this morning saying the case against Yang and Blake had been terminated, and they were no longer on their radar. But I still gotta set a good example, just in case."

"That's good." Aizawa smiled slightly.

"Anyways, the next family we're visiting, probably won't be so easy." Toshinori said.


~Bakugo Household~

"You kidding hell yeah get these kids in a dorm room." Mitsuki said smacking Katsuki over the head.

"You Hag, hit me again and I'll kill you." Katsuki shouted.

"Oh hush." Mitsuki said, smacking him upside the head again, causing him to shake in fear. "If you hadn't been so damn weak you never would have been caught and caused all that trouble."

"C'mon you to, please no fighting." Masaru said. "We don't wanna frighten your teachers do we?"

"It's no use dad, you and I both know, when they get like this, it's impossible to get them to stop." Weiss sighed sitting to Masaru's right.

"Shut it you clowns." Katsuki shouted.

"Yeah you're the one who needs to butt out." Mitsuki stated.

"Mind your own damned business." Katsuki exclaimed.

"Oh don't you even think about using your Quirk Katsuki. You'd lucky Jack is upstairs taking a nap so she can't hear this." Mitsuki exclaimed.

'Jeez, some family dynamic.' Toshinori thought.

"So, you're saying you give us your consent?" Aizawa questioned.

"Hmm? Oh the dorm? Actually we're grateful." Mitsuki said, forcing Katsuki to bow his head. "Katsuki's fearless and good at everything he tries, especially since he's got that stupid awesome Quirk. People are always fawning over him, whether he deserved it or not. An' having Weiss, an interdimensional traveler joining the family actually kinda helped to mellow him out, especially now since he's dating Ruby."

"Wait, you know about where they came from?" Toshinori questioned.

"Blake explained everything to Class 1-A when we came to visit Yang at the Hospital, and since Scythe and Eri were rescued, it made things a whole lot easier." Weiss explained. "Mom and dad were there when everything was laid out for them, and they took it surprisingly well."

"But anyways, because of all the fawning that Katsuki got, it's probably the reason why he ended up the way he was before Ruby and Weiss came into our lives." Mitsuki added. "That's why I liked what you said, at the press conference. See, that's when I understood that the school was watching him closely. I was worried about the kid, obviously, and didn't know what would happen, but he's back now, safe and sound, so it worked out. I'm sure U.A will face harsh criticism from some people, we still trust you though, so we'll leave them to you. Right?" Mitsuki asked Masaru with a smile, while forcing Katsuki to bow.

"Mhmm." Masaru replied before he, Weiss, and Mitsuki all bowed with Katsuki.

"He's a hot tempered brat, and we know he's a pain, and Weiss is obviously the polar opposite, but please train them hard and make them good heroes." Mitsuki said with a smiled.

Aizawa just looked at the family not sure on what he should say before Toshinori caught his attention with a nudge of his elbow.

"I owe you a drink for this one." He said with a smile.

"Right." Aizawa chuckled.

Outside after all was said and done at the Bakugo household, Toshinori sighed when he realized that next up, he'd have to try and convince Yang to keep letting Scythe go to U.A, which he knew was going to be difficult.

"Hey Aizawa, why don't we split up? Dealing with Yang is gonna be a bit of a personal matter, and I'd like to do it on my own." Toshinori said.

"You sure, I'd be more than happy to be there for you for moral support." Aizawa said.

"I'm sure." Toshinori stated. "Plus if we split up, we'll get the work done twice as fast."

"All right. I'll meet you back at Campus then." Aizawa exclaimed.


~Xiao Long Belladonna Household~

"Scythe honey, please just take your vitamins." Yang grumbled trying to get Scythe to eat her chewable vitamins.

"Mmph." Scythe grumped turning away.

"Honey please just do this for us. The doctors said you need these to regain your strength." Blake sighed holding Scythe to her lap.

"What's the matter sweetie, we know you're still upset about Shimura, but that shouldn't stop you from taking your vitamins." Yang exclaimed. "Or… do you not like seeing me like this?"

"Knock-knock…" Toshinori called out, coming through the front door.

"Grandpa Toshi." Scythe cried out running to the front door, before she came back into view in Toshinori's arms as he came into the living room.

"Hey why the sour faces you two?" He asked, seeing Yang and Blake looking upset.

"We can't get her to take her vitamins." Yang said.

"We've tried pretty much everything we can do to make her take them, but nothing's worked." Blake added. "We even told her she could sing a song at Shimura's funeral."

"Scythe, what is it going to take to get you to eat your vitamins huh?" Toshinori asked.

"I want mom to remove the cover on her shoulder." Scythe said, pointing to the black cover over the limbless shoulder of Yang's right side.

"Sweetie why would you want to see it?" Yang asked.

"I just wanna." Scythe said.

"Yang?" Toshinori asked.

"Fine." Yang sighed removing the cover over her armless shoulder.

Scythe hopped down from Toshinori's arms, and went over to Yang's shoulder, examining it, before she took in a deep breath, and closed her eyes, focusing her magic into it, as a sphere of magic energy appeared between her hands and Yang's severed shoulder. Scythe continued to take in deep breaths before the sphere of magic energy began to extend more onto Yang's shoulder, underarm, and a bit over her chest, before it began to lengthen out and take shape just before the light dissipated, revealing it to be a black diamond arm with a golden core. After Scythe finished that, part of the surface began to take on a gold color, turning into the missing part of her tattoo like Dragonslayer markings.

"Scythe, is this why you've been so stubborn?" Yang asked, flexing her new limb.

"Yeah, I wanted to make sure you could keep doing your hero work." Scythe smiled.

"That's incredible." Toshinori said in awe as Scythe took her vitamins.

"So what brings you by pops?" Yang asked as Scythe sat in her lap.

"I think you already know that." Toshinori exclaimed. "Where's Eri?"

"With my mom and dad." Blake said, holding an envelope addressed to them from U.A. "They decided to take her out to lunch so we could have a bit of privacy to discuss this."

"You're wanting to ask for my permission to send Scythe to the dorms, is that right?" Yang asked.

"Pretty much." Toshinori said as Scythe picked up a letter addressed to her, off the coffee table.

"I'm sorry, but I'm putting my foot down, and saying no." Yang said.

"But mom…"

"No is my answer young lady. I realize it's your dream to be a hero as great as Grandpa Toshi, but you're too young to be even going to U.A. you can go again when you're of proper age."

"But… mom I don't want to go when I'm older, I want to go now." Scythe complained jumping down from Yang's lap gripping the letter addressed to her. "I want to be a hero like you, like Grandpa Toshi."

"No, means no young lady." Yang said.

"Mama, please tell her to let me go." Scythe pleaded turning to Blake.

"I'm sorry sweetie, but I'm in agreement with Yang on this." Blake said.

"Fine, then maybe I'll just become a vigilante instead." Scythe nearly shouted, a look of anger crossing her face.

"You young lady are doing no such thing." Yang said standing up.

"Then let me go to U.A, now instead of when I'm older." Scythe shouted.

"We are not having this discussion young lady. You're not going and that's the end of it." Yang said.

"Why… WHY CAN'T YOU SEE I JUST WANT TO BE LIKE YOU?" Scythe shouted slamming her fist on the coffee table, destroying it in the process as she lost control over her One-for-All.

Scythe threw the letter to the ground and ran to the basement suit that was her room. Yang just sighed and sat back down on the recliner, burying her face in her hands.

"She's not supposed to be like this until she's a teenager." Yang sighed. "Now I'm concerned she might actually go through with her threat of becoming a vigilante."

"We'll just have to make sure that doesn't happen Yang." Blake sighed putting a comforting hand on her shoulder as Toshinori picked up the discarded letter.

"Hey listen to this." Toshinori said. "It's from that kid at the training camp."

"Kota?" Yang questioned.

"Dear Scythe. I'm sorry I was so rude to you when you were here, I'm not sure when you'll be able to read this letter, Mandalay says you went missing, but when you do read this, I want you to know that thanks to you, I now see why there are heroes, and why they are so important to everyone. You helped me to understand, what it means for there to be heroes, so thank you, and the curry you made the second night you were her, was delicious as well. I hope to hear from you soon. ~Kota. P.S: Thank you, for avenging… my parents and defeating the villain who took them from me." Toshinori read aloud, pausing at the mention of Kota's parents and their killer.

"Scythe did that?" Yang questioned taking the letter, and letting the message sink in.

"I don't want to push either of you into anything. But it sounds like she might be making a bigger difference now, than she would be in the future." Toshinori said.

"Blake…?" Yang asked.

"It's up to you Yang. I'll go along with whatever you decide." Blake said.

Yang sighed and looked at the letter for another moment, before looking back up at Toshinori.

"I'm trusting you to protect her, even if it's with your life dad." Yang said.

"I promise you, I will, even though I no longer possess One-for-All." Toshinori said.

"Alright then." Yang sighed getting up and going to the door, leading to the basement. "Scythe honey, I'm coming down." She said, knocking on the door.

"Scythe?" Blake called down as they descended the steps.

"Scythe, sweetie listen, Mama and I have decided to let you… Scythe?" Yang stopped in her explanation when she saw that the basement window was open, and Scythe's suitcase with her hero costume was open and empty, and the clothes she had been wearing before were strewn across the ground. "No she didn't."

"Did what?" Toshinori asked, coming down the steps.

"She ran away, and she's gonna become a vigilante." Yang stated. "I should have known this would happen, how could I be so stupid?"

"Calm down Yang, everything's gonna be okay. We'll find her." Toshinori said.

"Yang, there's another scent by the window, it's Ban's." Blake said.

"Ban's?"

"See? I told you everything was gonna be okay, he probably just took her out for some training to blow off some steam." Toshinori exclaimed with a soft smile.

"I suppose you're right." Yang sighed reaching into her pocket for her scroll. "I do have a couple missed messages from him. Probably just letting me know Scythe is with him, and that he'll probably have her back by nightfall."


~With Ban, Scythe, and Escanor~

"Are you sure about this Ban?" Escanor questioned as the trio were using Merlin's teleportation magic to warp to Shie Hassaikai's current hideout. "Wasn't the plan to get Yang involved with taking down Chisaki, not Scythe?"

"You heard her shouting at the top of her lungs like that when we were about to knock on the front door; the kid needs to blow off some steam before she blows a gasket. Besides, I've got my License on me, if we get caught I can just claim I used the extension for giving a Hero in Training permission to use their Quirk against a villain." Ban exclaimed as Scythe stood between the two, in her Argonaut form, looking like she was ready to bust some heads.

"Very well. But if she gets hurt, it will backfire on you." Escanor sighed. "An' you'll have more than just the government to deal with."

"I know, I know." Ban sighed. "Scythe you hear that? You'd better come out of this with all your limbs, and organs intact."

"I know, I know. Can we just get to it already?" Scythe questioned. "An' call me by my hero name, Athena."

"You got it." Ban smirked as they came to the building they were looking for. "Here we are."

Escanor reached into his pocket, and pulled out a small cube shaped gem, and tossed it to the ground behind them. In an instant, the entire building was surrounded by a giant Perfect Cube spell.

"Courtesy of Merlin and her Magic Gems even a, none magic user can use." Escanor stated. "She'll be quite happy to know they work."

Scythe marched up to the wall they stood in front of, and covering her entire body in metal, she reeled her fist back, and filled it with 20% of One-for-All, before throwing the punch, and shattering the wall.

As the dust settled, Scythe, Ban, and Escanor stepped through the giant hole in the wall, showing themselves to the recovering members of Shie Hassaikai.

"Knock-knock." Scythe smirked, cracking her knuckles. "Anybody home?"

"So this dungy old place is where you've been hiding huh?" Ban asked. "Gotta say, I pictured it having a lot more luxury's than this."

"What the hell are you doing here?" Chisaki asked.

"Nothing much, just helping a friend get some personal payback on you." Ban smirked, as Scythe stepped forward. "Escanor."

"On it." Escanor said, throwing another cube in the center of the room, resulting in another Perfect Cube containing Scythe, Rikiya, and Chisaki, before it went floating into the air. "Woops, let one slip in by mistake."

"You're right, it was just supposed to be Athena and Chisaki." Ban said. "Oh well, I guess it just means one less opponent for us to fight."

"Pity, I was hoping that big guy could entertain me for a while." Escanor said.

"Trust me, he wouldn't have, since I took him down the other morning." Ban chuckled.

"Enough of the talking Ban, let us begin." Escanor said.

"I don't know who you think you are little girl, but you're messing with the wrong people." Chisaki said as Rikiya punched his fists together.

"Oh, so you don't recognize me?" Scythe asked reverting from her Argonaut form, and glaring at Chisaki. "Now do you recognize me?"

"This will be too easy." Rikiya chuckled.

"Don't kill her, she's an important component to our plans." Chisaki stated.

"You got it boss." Rikiya said, throwing a punch at Scythe.

The world began to turn in slow motion for Scythe as a fire was lit in her soul.

"Dracno Imparealla." Scythe spoke, catching Rikiya's fist with just her thumb and index finger, as she was instantly in her Dark Argonaut Form, just like at the training camp when she fought against Muscular. "Droncopha De Selca."

With a flick of her wrist, she sent Rikiya flying into the wall of their fighting arena, as her arm became covered in untamed muscle fibers.

"Paraka?" Scythe questioned looking down at her arm in confusion. "Baracoktela Eccnaca Muscular Tortaga."

"What the hell is she saying?" Rikiya questioned picking himself up.

"I have no idea, but whatever she's saying, it seems like she's confused about what's going on with her muscle fibers, which gives us an advantage in this fight. Remember she went toe to toe with both Stain and his copycat at the same time, and won." Chisaki stated.

Scythe sighed when she realized she'd have to figure out her inquiry later. She pressed one foot back, before pressing one fist into the surface she stood on, her eyes only saying one thing as the red lightning of One-for-All, sparked around her.

"Come and get me."
