"Greetings. I am the avatar-"

"Save your long winded speech. What do you want?" Clearly Bakugo was not amused.

More lightening appeared everywhere and the 'Avatar rose, towering over them and giving them a hard stare.

"Have you no shame or respect for your elders?"

"Rude as though he may be, he has a point. Are you the one who forced us to be here against our will? If so tell us why we should listen, tell us why we shouldn't just kill you where you stand."

"Akutagawa."

"You might as well give it up Jordan." Molly yelled. "We know it's you. And we…no, I'd appreciate it if you would just be upfront about everything."

The figure plopped down to regular size almost instantly. "Ah! Come on Molly, don't do this, you're making me look bad."

"I think you did that perfectly on your own." Aikka said from beside her. Which made Jordan growl and go face to face with him.

"Bring it Princey."

"Ok. You two are not doing this right now." Molly got between them. "Save the dick measuring for later okay?" This caught the other two off guard and gasp. "What are we really doing here Jordan? And don't be mysterious like Satis and say it's the Ultimate Prize. We all know how that turned out."

"Are you saying the prize was a lie back then?" Molly glanced back to see one of the Crogs ask her that.

"Yeah. Instead of winning what your heart desires most you became the ruler of Oban for the next 10,000 years." She glanced back at Jordan. "It's only been 10 though."

"Yeah, And I'm bored out of my mind by myself. And don't tell me I got the creators to keep me company. Those disco balls won't stop hounding me about right and wrong. I need human interaction."

"Why should we entertain this? What's in it for us?" Kurogane asked.

"Nani estabanyo?"

"Ugh, for the last time wizard. I can't understand you."

"Here." Jordan snapped his fingers and some sort of white necklace went around Fai's neck. "Try now."

"Can you hear me now Kurgs?"

"Unfortunately, yes." Kurogane groaned. "But, back to what I asked earlier. What's in it for us?"

"What if I told you I could give you what you desired? No strings attached."

"Oh really? Can you make my mom come back from the dead?" Instead of one person saying this it was two. Ed and Molly both asked that at the same time. They glanced at each other. Ed continued. "Can you give my brother his body back?"

"Can you grant us immortality?" Envy asked.

Suddenly there was a chaotic amount of questions.

"Okay, so maybe there are things I won't be able to do. Resurrection, immortality, the taking of someone else's life."

"Well it was worth a shot." Zak mumbled.

"But I can give you the courage to succeed, the strength to move forward when you can't go on. I can grants small gifts to those who wish to rise higher than they are right now. To achieve victory." He glanced at Bakugo. "The power to become the best hero in the world."

"I'll do it on my own and without your help."

"It would get you there so much faster."

"Yeah? That's also cheating. I'll be number one, and I'll do it at my own pace, not a handout."

"Cocky aren't ya?"

"What's it to you shortly?"

Ed suddenly got right in his face and yelled at him. He began arguing back. Then he watched as some sort of shadowy figure grasped there shoulders and separate him.

"Bakugo, must you always be so noisy?" Tokoyami asked. His quirk Dark Shadow had a mind of its own and complained about all the ruckus going on. Bakugo in response lit up small explosions in his hand.

"EEEP!" Dark Shadow cried. Removing himself from the other two and going back to rest beside its master. "So bright and scary."

"Calm yourself, Dark Shadow."

"This must be the 'somebody else' he was referring to." Akutagawa said coming up to stand in front of Tokoyami. "It would appear-" Rashoman took form next to Akutagawa. "That we indeed share something uniquely similar."

"Such a revelry of darkness!"

"Darkness." DS yelled. "Power!" He grew bigger. "Need to feast!"

"No Dark Shadow! Stay put this instance. Don't give in to the darkness!" Tokoyami cried.

"Calm yourself." Akutagawa yelled. "Let him be free. Trust me my Rashomon can easily handle that thing."

"I don't understand. How are you able to have this much control over something that could just as easily kill you?" Tokoyami muttered trying to hold DS back.

"Don't try and stop me!" Dark Shadow wailed, reversing and going after Tokoyami."

"...Dark Shadow."

A fury of black and red grabbed hold of Dark Shadow. "Know your place, Dark Shadow." Acutagawa said with a fierce gaze. "Think about it. Attacking your master would only be the end of you."

"I don't care!"

"And you bird brain. The reason my Rashomon is so easily controlled. Because my mind has no room for such things as fear, anguish or insecurities. Handle those weaknesses. Until then, he will be just like a bratty child."

"Do I look like a child to you?!" Dark Shadow countered.

"I'm trying but this is all too much." Tokoyami held his head in his hands and curled up in the fetal position.

"Either take control of him or Rashoman will maim this beast and render him useless."

"I can't."

Akutagawa watched as Bakugo calmly walked right past Tokoyami and put up his hands. Using his quirk to create his stun grenade.

"Letting everyone know your weakness may be a crappy move on my part."

"It doesn't matter." Tokoyami said, breathing a sigh of relief. "I need to work on my own insecurities so this doesn't happen again."

"The fear of hurting someone else. That's his trigger point, his feeding ground. I'd start with that. He will one day obey your command."

"The day will come when I or Icy-Hot won't be there when he goes Super Saiyan." Bakugo said.

"Right."
