"Not that type of succession. Seeing as we are likely going to die here, the true name of my Quirk is Dragon Heart. It is passed along from user to user. I knew my time as a Hero was coming to a end, so I wanted to find a Hero to pass it on to."
"It's like that villain All for One? Passing from one to the next?" I asked.
"In concept yes, my master passed it down to me and Dragon Slayer. Before the battle at Kamino Ward I was considering passing it onto All Might and Endeavor. But All Might would turn it down when I asked him a about three weeks after the incident and said that Endeavor would be a poor choice. Said that it should go to a new upcoming hero, create a new Symbol of Peace. So I watched the Provisional Exams. And I saw two people... You and Ice Queen." He sighed. "To remain stable it requires a powerful host for one half of the power, and the other to be precise in their movements. I took Dragon Slayers half when I was forced to kill him. I was the precise half and him the power house. I have lost much of the feeling in my body as I can't handle the power.
"So you chose me and Weiss." I said just before a unholy scream of pain filled the dank, wet basement.
Chapter 41: Bad news.
I sat on the hospital bed, my phone in my hand looking at the articles.
Heroes from beyond our world. The long time Hero and confirmed alive and once again on the side of justice White Huntress is back on her home world of Remnant to reconnect with her husband, the son of the villain behind the League of Villains All for One. The news that we have been visited and living among us are people with soul powers called aura and Semblances. Remnant could at this very moment be working to create a large enough portal for trade.
The fact that life was out there looked so much like our own is certainly calming when faced with this news. But the world of Remnant is reportedly filled with the grimm that attacked Hosu city. As such once the connection many heroes have volunteered to help the local Huntsmen and Huntress' with the threat. The huntsman Qrow Branwen had said that of the nations of Remnant the most likely to build the gates will be Atlas. Unfortunately he didn't have a timeline for when we can expect our counter parts.
"We had wanted to wait till Summer came back to go public, but we had decided that the Atlas military just showing up out of the blue wouldn't be such a good idea, General Ironwood has always put the display over the message." The Hunter turned pro hero had to say.
And there is the second race of Remnant to consider, the Faunas people. Of whom there are two living among us already, UA students Ilia Amitola, a young cahmillion Faunas and the Daughter of the island nation of Menagerie's Chieftain, Blake Belladonna, a young cat Faunas.
But they bring forth new villains. Roman Torchwick of the League of Villains is a Remnant native who has had a long standing antagonistic relationship with the Hero/Huntress Ruby Rose in training ever since she stopped a robbery being carried out by him and a group of hired thugs.
"We have taken it upon ourselves to help train a new generation of heroes. Classes 1-A and 1-B will both have their auras and semblances unlocked. And for those who are born quirkless, aura and semblance will allow you to become heroes." The principle of UA said on the matter. "This will be a new golden age of Heroes, the age of pure souls rising up to push back evil in both our worlds."
There were no articles about the missing heroes from the raid, but Dupli was having that covered up until they could find them. She knew that with this news that UA will be under even more scrutiny and a missing student will only further damage the image of the school. She said that she, Ilia, Blake and the military will handle this one. The schools had been told that they are just undercover.
The door to my room opened and in walked Yang and Mirio. "Hey kiddo." They said.
"Hey." I smiled back.
"How you feeling?" Mirio asked as he sat at the end of my bed while Yang hugged me.
"Better, the doctors said I'll likely have a slight limp in my right leg until my aura fixes it." I said as I felt the scar tissue on my thigh. Yang pulled on my horns. "Hey!" I smiled.
"I'm surprised these didn't break." She remarked. "They are a lot stronger then they look."
"So Mirio… about your power... would you like to have your aura unlocked?" I asked, "If I hadn't fallen for Chisaki's feint you would still have your Quirk."
"I already did that." Yang said.
"And besides once Eri has control of her power I'll ask her to rewind what has been done." he smiled. "I'll make Sir proud, because even if he isn't here anymore, I know he is still watching us."
"Besides, you are free to leave after lunch, so we brought along someone." Yang said as Kiri walked in, a bundle of flowers in his hand. "So I thought a double date may cheer you up."
"That was my line." Kiri muttered. I got up and tackled him, he stood firm as he hugged me. "They didn't tell you but I waited till you were stabilized before I let them patch me up."
"Yeah, he held your hand the entire time." Yang came up and hugged him. "I'll be proud to officially welcome him to the family when mom and dad get back."
"Wait double date... who... oh no." I looked back at the top UA Student.
"Hope you don't mind it." He smiled. "Our feelings really Rose after the raid."
Now time for sleep.
