Chapter 5: Disappointing battle trials

Beep Beep Beep!

"Wait, didn't I destroy that thing!?"

"That's not the clock that's me, Neo! You need to wake up."

At around midnight I woke up in a cold sweat. I was unable to get back to sleep thanks to my thoughts on Neo's existence. It didn't help that he apparently knew my routine but didn't factor in that my spirits would be low due to lack of sleep.

Looking at my clock "It's four in the morning. I can afford to get some more sleep." Feeling my shirt being tugged I turn to see the wolf pulling on me to wake me up.

"You can stay awake for days without deep sleep. At this point you're just resting. Those ten miles won't run by themselves." He stopped when my face demonstrated surprise. "Oh, just because I can't touch other objects doesn't mean you can't be."

With a grunt, I shoot to my feet. Neo started jumping up and down and went to the door wagging his tail. It appeared that he wanted to run. But why is he waiting for me to open the door?

"C'mon, we are connected! I go too far away from you so please get up so I can get some solid exercise." Dammit, I didn't sign up for a pet. Well at least I don't have to feed him.

Using a clothes beam to give me my black tracksuit we go outside and begin our jog. Neo keeps on running up to different objects and sniffing them. He seemed to be having the time of his life. If not for the fact that his manifestation took the form of my only fear, I'd say he was kind of adorable.

"So Neo, besides what you have shown me can you do anything else?" My question put him into thought. He started doing that high leg thing dogs do to look pretty. His head held high.

"Well I'm pretty much the front door for others to enter your mind. It's not like many have tried but I make it difficult to control you." Now it was my turn to be deep in thought.

"If you are in my head can you stop the nightmares?" I give him a hopeful look. Unfortunately he shook his head.

"Your nightmares are caused by your natural fear of him. The pain only exist because he cursed you so that reminding you of your scars reignites that pain. But the spell is too powerful for me to do anything."

I let loose a disappointed sigh. Guess the fear will never go away.

Once we finished our jog we returned home to give me time to shower. Once that was done I grabbed my stuff and made my way to school. It still felt weird going. Most of my current education was technically home-schooled if you would qualify Chris's teaching methods 'education'.

Alright, I will admit that Chris did a pretty good job schooling me. Granted when it came to math he had already shown me why it's important for calculating what angle to bounce off of and it honestly wasn't too hard since he shoved that specific topic down my throat.

When it came down to English, I was fairly fluent. Chris was in fact from America so it sorta just rubbed off. In fact I was so good, when Present Mic decided to test us by switching from Japanese to English I was able to have a whole conversation with him.

Literature was something I had to take seriously but it wasn't the most complicated class. If you paid attention in class there wasn't really any trouble. When Cementoss started asking questions the only one who couldn't properly answer the question was Kaminari but since he had shown the lowest score in the class the teacher just told him to study more.

Now the real "fun" was with Art History. Midnight wasn't a bad teacher but out of all the history that I studied, the history of art never came up. She saw right away that I was struggling and tried to slow down for me. I appreciated it but it didn't stop me from nearly bursting a blood vessel from my brain going into overdrive.

And for the last part of the day we finally got into heroics. The unquestionably fun part of the day. Well at least it's supposed to be.

"I am here! Coming through the doorway like a normal person!" All Might was hanging out the front door. This caused the whole room to burst into conversation.

"Who, it's actually him"

"Is that his silver age costume"

"Ah! Again! Seriously!" I had clutched over with blood dripping out of my ears. The others looked back at me with shock. All Might began waving his hands in apology and looked like he might pass out.

Dammit Toshinori, you did it again. Need to find a way to help him out with that but until then make sure he isn't caught off guard by your yells!

"Welcome students to the hero course. Here you will all train to become professional heroes." He pointed a remote at the wall and cases ejected from the side. "These are your hero costumes, the same ones each of you had designed. All of them are here except for Leo's who was already shown his when he got here."

I nod and when everyone heads to the wall to get their outfits I make my way to the locker room. Once there I take out the sheet of paper Aizawa had given me during homeroom today. After taking a moment to memorize the material and how it looked I put my hand on my chest.

"Clothes Beam!"

A bright light surrounded me as my shoes became black kung fu shoes(they actually exist) and my pants became gray gi pants. A black long sleeve skin tight shirt appeared on my upper half of my body then having the top half of the gi appear on top of it.(It's like a mix between Goku's gi and Garou's clothing.)

Hearing a whistle behind me, my eyes landed on some of the boys that had arrived at the locker room behind me. "Wow that's a pretty neat way to get suited up." Kirishima says as he takes off his shirt to put on his shoulder pads, or whatever those things are. Gears?

"It comes in handy. You guys have way more complicated costumes then mine. How do you plan on getting them on?" I asked.

This ended up being a fifteen minute process with me helping some of the others with their suits. Bakugou even at one point had trouble with his gauntlets but refused to get any help. Shoji needed me to make sure he didn't tear up his shirt when he put it on. And one of the others just needed me to put on a helmet.(Cough Cough, Sero)

Once finished we made our way to the test site that we had performed our entrance exams in. Once inside, Midoriya was already taking notes on everyone's costumes. His was a green body suit that at first glance looked like a bunny, but after taking a few seconds it became obvious that it was supposed to replicate All Might. Going to take a guess and say he is an All Might fan boy.

Tokoyami had a cloak. A black cloak. Nothing else that you could see but he pulled off the look quite well. I could see Dark Shadow peeking out of it to look around. He was having a chat with Shoji, who has taken a liking to Tokoyami and me. Hey, us quiet people need to stick together so that people would stop talking to us.

The other costumes didn't interest me much. It didn't really matter to me. However I tried my best to even stair in the direction of Yaoyorozu, whose outfit was too revealing and made me feel like I was insulting her by just looking at the same place she was in. I wasn't at all attracted to her but it appeared Mineta was the exact opposite.

"Look at all of you! You look like real heroes!" All Might had taken a special liking to all the different costumes. He looked like a fanboy himself. "Now today's exercise will be a mock villain battle. You will all be split into teams of two, as well as one team of three. There will be heroes and villains."

"The Villain side will be tasked with defending a bomb that can be placed anywhere in a building. Their goal is to make sure that the heroes do not touch the bomb. They would be given five minutes to prepare the building."

"The Heroes job is to touch the bomb with their whole hand within the time limit. While the villains would be given five minutes to prepare, the heroes can use that time to form strategy."

"Both teams have been given capture tape. If you manage to wrap it around your opponent then they would be eliminated. If both members are eliminated then that team loses. If the time runs out then the villain team wins. Any questions?"

After a brief silence All Might yelled "Okay, now we will pull balls out of this box to determine your teams. Team J will have the third member."

We all took a step forward to grab our ball. When I reached in and grabbed the ball it had read J. Meaning my team would be the three piece.

"Now here are the teams!"

Team A:Izuku Midoriya & Ochako Uraraka

Team B:Ejiro Kirishima & Hanta Sero

Team C:Momo Yaoyorozu & Minora Mineta

Team D:Katsuki Bakugou & Tenya Iida

Team E:Yugo Aoyama & Mina Ashido

Team F:Rikido Sato & Koji Koda

Team G:Denki Kaminari & Kyoka Jiro

Team H:Fumikage Tokoyami & Tsuyu Asui

Team I:Mashiroa Ojiro & Toru Hagakure

Team J: Shoto Todoroki & Mezo Shoji & "Leo"

I turn to my teammates, Shoji and Todoroki. After a moment of looking at each other we all seem to come to a mutual alliance. Even though Todoroki and I had that incident yesterday, he didn't seem to be pissed about it at the moment.

"Now here are the matches as well!"

A vs D

B vs H

C vs G

E vs F

I vs J

"Wait, we have to fight those three! How are we supposed to do that!" Hagakure didn't look like she appreciated the fact that she and Ojiro would battle three at once. "Even if the quirkless one is on that team, he still seems strong enough to hold his own."

All Might then yelled "The first battle trial will be A vs D, the rest of you will follow me to the observatory!" We did as we were told and it found us in a room filled with screens that allowed us to spectate the upcoming battles.

When I saw who was fighting each other my blood turned to ice. Bakugou and Midoriy were fighting each other. Unless Bakugou's personality and hatred towards the green haired teen was a ruse, this battle was going to be a bloodbath.

As I expected, the battle ended brutally with Midoriya taking an entire explosion to the arm but had punched a hole into the building. Even with the advice that I gave him, the power user's arm couldn't take the punishment of a full scale attack and it turned purple from damage. This however led to Team A's victory as it allowed Uraraka to grab the bomb.

"Wow, what a turn of events. The winning team is all beat up but the losers don't have a scratch." commented Kaminari. Tokoyami nodded before adding."How does the saying go? They may have won the battle but lost the war."

When the remaining contestants arrived at the observatory All Might spoke. "Now who would like to guess who got MVP in this battle?" Yaoyorozu raised her hand and began her long speech. Saying that Iida performed the best with his situation and that he was quick to adapt. Once hearing this I had to agree with her.

"Now next up is Team B versus Team H! Team B will be the villains while H will be the heroes. Go take your spots!" When the teams showed up it came to my realization that Tokoyami was up next. Making my way too him, I could see that Shoji was already wishing him and Tsu luck.

"Tokoyami" my voice rose up as I approached the small group. They turned to me as I continued talking. "All I have to say is this. If this fight ends up like the one before hand I'm taking both of you to meet a friend who will be happy to provide some 'training' for the both of you. I'm not saying that to threaten you, it's just you'll have proven you are in need of harsh training."

Both seemed to sweat drop with that remark. Tsu then stepped forward "I know you are trying to make new friends, but you need to work on your socializing."

I shrugged "You spend eight years with one other person and try to remain good at socializing. My only friend outside of class that I have made on my own is also bad at it. That's why we are friends."

And with that the next group went to the building and me and Shoji made our way to the monitors.

(Tokoyami's POV)

Me and Asui made our way to the front entrance of the building. Before Kirishima and Sero entered they sent us a wave which we returned. Then All Might's voice rang out around us. "Your five minutes begins now!"

"So how do you want to start this Asui?" I turn to my teammate. "From what I've gathered we are fighting a man who can harden his body while simultaneously creating jagged edges to hurt us if we attack him. And also we have someone who can shoot tape out of his elbows."

Asui did her finger thing when she put one on her chin. She appeared to give it some thought before responding. "First off, call me Tsu. And second, we should stick together because we don't know where the bomb will be. If we split up then we won't be able to help each other if we get caught in Sero's tape."

Giving a nod I insert my plan. "Then we should decide our opponents now if we get the chance to choose. Since Dark Shadow could easily escape Sero's tape let me handle Sero. If you come across Kirishima try to dodge him as best you can. If need be let me handle Kirishima in a fist fight while you go for the bomb."

"How about the other way around." she argues. I look at her in confusion. "Kirishima and Sero seem very defensive. They may not even leave the room the bomb is in. If that's the case they would be close enough for you to run to it while Dark Shadow distracts Sero and I battle Kirishima. Also, no offense but I'm not confident in your ability with close range combat without Dark Shadow. Especially against Kirishima."

Ouch, straight and to the point.

Just what this team needed.

"Sounds good. To look for the bomb we could send out Dark Shadow throughout the floor that we are on so we don't get separated." Then my beak twists into a smile. "Well Tsu, our opponents may have to deal with a powerful duo. Let's show them what we are made of."

We give each other a thumbs up as All Might yells through the intercom. "Begin!"

I take a step into the first hallway, Tsu climbing the wall beside me. Immediately, Dark Shadow pops out of my chest and starts turning corners. He can only go about forty feet from me but it was far enough for him to scout this level without any risk to us.

After realizing the first floor was clear we moved to the stairs and slowly went up. Dark Shadow then came back in a hurry. "The bomb is at the end of the center hallway on the next floor. Both of our opponents are next to it along with a whole lot of tape acting as ways to prevent us from bouncing around."

I turn to Tsu. "This is it. Dark Shadow will claw away the tape. Once that happens, go to Kirishima." She nods.

We then pounce up the stairs. Once our opponents see us Kirishima charges straight at me but not before getting a frog foot in his face which slammed him against the wall. He didn't look hurt but that attack had given me enough time to run past him.

Sero began shooting tape but Dark Shadow waved his claws to cut all of it and more around the room. "What the…" Sero tried to get out but was then slammed into by Dark Shadow.

"Hey, come back and fight me like a man!" Kirishima tried to give chase to me but a tongue wrapped around him and yanked him down the steps we were just coming up. Tsu flinched due to some cuts on her tongue. However she powered through it and stood at the top of the stairway. Keeping Kirishima in sight as well as myself if assistance was needed.

I extended my hand to touch the bomb but a stray piece of tape shoots out of Sero's elbow and snags my foot. Dark Shadow had his hands full with making sure the tape kid couldn't capitalize on me being stuck.

A roar is heard behind me as Kirishima charges up the stairs. Tsu jumps on top of him and plants her feet on his chest. But before she could push off of him to propel him, the red haired teen grabs her arm and chucks her at me.

She slams into my back and we fall to the ground. We are lucky that we didn't land in a large piece of tape but the small amount of chopped up pieces we easily were able to rip off with no consequences.

Dark Shadow had decided to throw Sero at Kirishima who in response had to turn off his quirk, unless he wanted to damage his classmate. When this happened Dark Shadow returned to us and carried Tsu off of me.

We both got back to our feet. The bomb was behind us and Kirishima and Sero were in front of us. But there was one problem we didn't expect.

Kirishima must have destroyed the walls of the building and placed them around the bomb. Tape surrounded the object and it would take time for us to move it. Time we wouldn't have if those two kept attacking us.

"Now what?" Tsu looked at me. Kirishima and Sero gave us toothy grins as they came to the conclusion that they had won. They yell and start charging us.

Time seemed to slow down as my head switched to the bomb and our opponents. 'What can we do? Tsu may be strong enough to move the walls with her legs and tongue but not with these two attacking. It's the same as with Dark Shadow. What would a pro do?'

Then his thoughts went back to the entrance exam. When Leo had jumped in front of him and Tsu and saved us with a power that he didn't know existed. He had shielded them from harm at the risk of his own health.

'Or better yet...what would Leo do?'

Before any other thought could cross my mind, I charged at Sero. "Dark Shadow, keep Kirishima at bay! Tsu, get that bomb!" The tape kid seemed surprised but immediately shot tape at me. But instead of dodging I spread my hands and let it hit me in my chest. At the same time I made sure none of it hit the ground so that my body wouldn't get stuck.

When I was close to Sero I dive under his elbow getting more tape across me. Some managed to land at our feet, trapping me. But it didn't matter. Grabbing both of his arms I put him in a full nelson. His tape still shoots around and it eventually traps us into a cocoon of it.

Dark Shadow had grabbed Kirishima and enveloped him so that he couldn't move. And with Dark Shadow being a creature of darkness, it wasn't easy to fight it with fist.

"A shield!" I scream. "That's what I'll be to win this battle! Now Tsu!"

With those final words, Tsu pushed off one of the walls after removing the tape. She then turned around and jumped on the bomb.

"Hero Team wins!"

(Leo's POV)

"That's what I'm talking about. Way to go Tokoyami."

After seeing my bird headed friend take himself out of the fight to achieve victory, a new found sense of respect seemed to have fallen on him. The other students were whooping with celebration.

Even their opponents, after cutting Tokoyami and Sero out of the tape, had given him appraisal. With Kirishima calling his acts manly and Sero giving a comment that his teamwork with Tsu was amazing.

And it wasn't just Tokoyami. Tsu also got much praise for holding off Kirishima and even moving a wall. When she came back to the observatory the other girls swarmed her with compliments on how well she did.

Tokoyami walked up to me. "So are me and Tsu getting a visit from your friend for intense "training"?" After taking a moment to think I give him a smile.

"You'll meet her but instead of "Training" it will be training. You need to work on your close combat. Plus you need new friends."

"Now that was a fantastic battle! Would anybody like to explain who got MVP?" Yaoyorozu once again raised her hand. "Besides Yaoyorozu, who already explained the first one." No one else raised their hand. "Fine."

"Thank you teacher. In my opinion Tokoyami deserves MVP however Tsu comes at a close second thanks to her ability to adapt and stay calm. In fact both seemed to possess similar strength when it came to combat sense. When the simulation first began they chose the lowest risk option that allowed them to quickly but slowly scout the building. With Dark Shadow they were able to find the bomb and get intel on it before making their move. Tsu had performed her job well and the only reason that she was taken out was because Kirishima simply possessed more close range combat capability. When Dark Shadow had attacked Sero some stray tape had ruined the plan so to say this went flawlessly is not the case. However both Tsu and Tokoyami adapted to the situation with Tokoyami making a risky but best option to take down both opponents without any casualties but by taking himself out as well. Tsu showed she was strong enough to be trusted and came through for the team."

"As for Kirishima and Sero, while their plan to play defensive may have seemed smart at first glance it was their ability to look at a situation in front of them that gave them the loss. Also when they tore apart the building to defend the bomb they risked the whole operation. The only saving grace was Kirishima's combat ability and the tape that Sero had placed before the battle. But in the end it wasn't enough."

I hear a snoring coming from my right as Kaminari had passed out on his feet with a little drool hanging out of his mouth. Before my hand could give him a proper wake up call with the back of my hand, Jiro beats me to it my using her jack to shock him awake.

"Well then! That's just what I was going to say. Good job Young Yaoyorozu!" She bows to the teacher before making her way back to the girls. It then occurred to me that she had been holding herself at a higher level than the others. Almost like she believed that she was right about everything.

One of these days she would have to face failure and it may break her. When that happens I'd have to do what I knew how to do best. Be an older brother.

The other battles began taking place as me, Tokoyami, Shoji, and Tsu all watched from our spot. Throughout the battles, I was able to see everyone's combat ability. It was interesting seeing how people used their quirks to their advantage. There were no other incidents like in the first battle. In fact it appeared that everyone had the time of their lives.

When it finally came to the final battle everyone's spirits were high. They wanted to see how the three v two would go down. When our group made it to the door All Might announced that the three would be the heroes.

"Your five minutes have begun!"

"You two just sit back and stay out of the building. I'll handle this." announced Todoroki. Me and Shoji look at each other before turning back to him.

"Nah, I've been stuck in a room all day. Also you can't just do everything yourself. It would ruin our score if you don't cooperate with us." I try to reason with him.

"Also, you are underestimating our opponents. They could have tricks that we don't know about." added Shoji.

"Yeah, so like it or not we are in this until the e…"

"...And then he froze the building."

Hop did a spit take that the bartender had to avoid. She then started laughing so hard that she clutched her stomach. When she calmed down she gave me a grin. "So after all those intense battle's yours ends in less than a second."

"We honestly didn't even know the five minutes was up. No one had realized that Todoroki had a watch on him the entire time. The second five minutes was up, it was just a swish and it was done." My tone showed that I was clearly annoyed by that outcome.

"Well then it's a good thing that you came here to get your ass kicked by me. You sound like you had a boring day. Also is he going to be okay?" she points to my left at the bird headed individual who was groaning from the bruises that Hop had given him in their two on one battle. The healing drinks seemed to be doing their job but that didn't mean that he was in any shape to go a few rounds.

"He'll be fine. You went easy on him. Also the drinks seemed to be doing their magic. Heck, I'm in worse shape than him." I was talking about the broken leg she had given me in the fight. Even with the medicine it would take all night for it to properly heal.

"How did you convince the ambassador to let him come here?" she decided to ask. "You'd think they would be more strict on who leaves the universe."

"Well since I wasn't taking him to Universe 1 they allowed as long as we notify him when we move. Tokoyami had to call his parents to tell them he would be late getting home." I then snicker. "You should have seen his face when we exited the portal here. He had to find somewhere to vomit because his stomach wasn't used to inter-dimensional travel."

We sit at the bar for a little while longer. Eventually Tokoyami woke up and asked if it was fine if we headed home. He didn't want to worry his parents. "It was nice meeting you, Tokoyami and also nice having an interesting fight. But if you don't attempt to put on some muscle we are going to have a problem." Hop warned. Tokoyami gives her a nod before I open a portal to Universe 605.

"Until next time Hop!" I then use my foot to shove Tokoyami through the portal and jump in afterwards.

Hop looks at where they disappeared. She shakes her head. "That is going to be an interesting year for them." Her eyes then wandered to a poster that the bartender was putting on the wall. "Maybe…"

Once Tokoyami was home I made my way to my apartment. Once there I did my routine exercise and watered the plants. My life was boring.

Laying down on my sleeping bag, Neo was curled up sleeping. He had fun watching the fights today. Whenever Tokoyami and I had fought Hop he was yelling words of encouragement at me that only distracted me in the end but was nice to have anyway.

He didn't tell Hop about Neo. I still didn't believe it was real. I had called Chris about it and he said to keep an eye on him but since he didn't seem a threat yet it wasn't top priority.

My hand reaches for my watch. I began scrolling through numbers until I found the one I was looking for. This watch allowed me to make inter-dimensional calls. It was handy for who I had in mind.

"She should be home by now." I say to myself before the telephone is picked up on the other end.

"Leo! How has the new school been? You had me worried because you didn't call. Is everything alright?" I chuckle. I couldn't call Luna yesterday because of the situation with Neo. She would lose her mind if she knew that the animal that had changed her life had a second personality shoved into her brother's head.

"I'm fine, Luna. Something just came up. The school is pretty chill. The teachers are in their hero costumes all day and it sometimes makes things pretty weird. But it has definitely been an adventure."

"Hop had told me you brought a friend to your sparring session. Some kind of bird guy? Is he any cool?"

Oh yeah, When I had introduced Hop to Luna they immediately hit it off. Hop almost immediately came to Luna's defense whenever some bodybuilder tried picking on her. She had even refrained from showing any blood while Luna was around. That being said now they are always communicating with Luna telling Hop embarrassing stories about me that can be used as leverage.

"He was that guy I told you about in the entrance exams. I took him with me to fight Hop because he is lacking when it comes to muscle but that lesson might have been drilled into his head by her." I hear laughing on the other end.

"Well, it's good to know that you actually have friends now. Ever since you got out of the time chamber you can't seem to hold a very good conversation."

"What makes the relationship with Tokoyami work is we don't usually talk much and Hop's is that we tend to fight more than talk."

I look at my watch. "It's 2100, time for bed. I'll contact you later with updates. Next time you tell me how you have been."

"Before you go, can I ask you something?" Luna asked.

"You just did, but go on." This seemed to tick her off but she returned to a serious tone.

"Are you ever going to ask Hop out?"

Now one would think my reaction would be of surprise and that I'd just stutter and deny that I had feelings about her. But what actually happened was I accidentally ignited my ki and flew out the window into the dumpster.

I climb out of the dumpster. "I need another shower now, thank you." I fly back up to my apartment and take a seat on the balcony. "Also, WHAT?"

"You two always hang out. She being your only friend for weeks and you being the first actual friend she has ever had. You talk about her all the time and have been obsessed with beating her. How can you not have a crush on her?"

"Look, me and Hop are just friends. We are good friends but just friends. Besides, my training would always get in the way of my personal life. And finally, this is Hop we are talking about. I have seen her punch a guy through a wall when they catcalled her for being a female cat woman. When someone grabbed her rear she kicked them so hard in the crotch that I bent over in pain and so did everyone in the bar. Trust me, even if I had feelings for her, she'd kill me if I tried to ask her out."

"Give it some time Leo. Till next time."

I grab the bridge of my nose and exhale. "Till next time. Good night Luna." I hear the phone hang up. I take my shower and then return to the sleeping bag. Nudging Neo off a little bit so I could get in.

And just like always. The nightmares and pain return.

Shigaraki was tired of all these thugs getting in his way. They were all looking around the warehouse trying to find a way to occupy themselves until tomorrow. Even with the massive space in the building it was quick to realize that these people would drive him insane if they kept getting into small fights.

Well more insane than he already is.

He made his way through a portal that Kurogiri had made for him. Once on the other side he could see his master having a conversation with something in the dark. Six people in dark cloaks nealed between his master and the darkness.

"Ah, Shigaraki, it is good that you have arrived. I am trying to convince our new found ally that these assassins would suit well in targeting the one he seeks."

Shigaraki's eyebrow slightly raises. "We are already going to kill All Might tomorrow. Why would we need assassins to help us kill him?"

His master raised a hand. "You are mistaken. It's not All Might they are after and they don't intend to be there to assassinate them."

A clicking sound comes from the shadow as a twelve foot mechanical wolf walks out into the light. At least at first sight he seemed mechanical. But on second, he could see the steady fall of his back indicating that he was breathing. It was an armor that this behemoth wore.

"They are there to test them, for him."

A mighty aura rolls off the beast as the clicking intensifies. A wave of fear washes over Shigaraki and he falls back into the wall. His master swishes wine in a glass of his, a huge smile on his face.

"Shigaraki, let me introduce you to our ally."

"Rampant"

I hope you guys enjoy the little bonus treatment Tokoyami is getting. Him and another character who shows up later will be getting some love as I see these two lacking when it comes to usage in cannon. There will be times when Leo won't be around and these two will take up a limited part of the story as the center. So I hope you enjoyed the fact I made two chapters in one weekend. Even if this one was shorter.
