The Soul of a Hero

Chapter 7

Now it's time for some slightly darker elements and a few new enemies to deal with. Just fyi, the League of Villains are going to take a bit of a back seat in this. After all, they don't pose quite the same threat that the witches do. So on with the show.

(Tenya POV)

Today has been a strange and dangerous day. I thought the worst I would deal while in school was some of the exercises that my teachers would come up with. But instead, we get attacked by an army of villains in the first week of school.

Not to mention being saved by a dangerous group of….. I'm not even sure what to call them. The heroes had been chasing them but they came to our aid? They kill villains without remorse, but spare others? It's so….. oxymoronic I can't even comprehend it all.

"Mother!? Father?! Hello? Where is everyone?" I ask while heading into the living room. I check each of the rooms but no one is here. So I pull out my phone to call my father. He doesn't pick up right away, but I do eventually get an answer.

"Tenya…. Son where are you?" I'm a bit confused by that but I tell him I'm home and then go on to report what happened today. And he just sounds more terrified and worried than before. "Listen Tenya. Something's happened. Your brother. He… He's missing. He went after a villain during a raid and… they haven't found him. At least not all of him."

I'm dumbfounded by this and ask if my father can give any more details. They apparently found blood stains and… I shudder when I hear this: a part of Tensei's stomach in the tunnel he rushed down.

"What? How? Do they know anything?! Anything that could point us to who did this?!" I shout as some tears fill my eyes. I can basically hear my father shaking his head as he said they didn't know who was behind this matter. Even the captured villains didn't know much, given this person was a new player in the villain scene.

My father tells me to stay home and to not look into this more. "Whoever did this had been doing some other strange things. There are a few people who had been… well they've been through a deeply traumatizing ordeal. You aren't ready to handle this."

I can hear the finality in those words as I cry. I want to help find my brother! If for nothing else but to return his body for a proper burial. But…. I know my father is correct. Whoever this was, they were skilled or powerful enough to take out my brother. Let alone running a small organization of kidnapping villains. Every fiber is telling me to go out and search, but I know I wouldn't find anything. And wouldn't stand a chance. As the tears fall and I collapse on my bed.

(No POV)

At UA Jon and Ming were settling in. With Izuku and Johari taking some time to explore the campus itself. While the weapons were relaxing in a common room area. "Everything okay?" Midnight questions at noticing that Jon was glaring out the window.

"Fine. It's nothing you need to worry about." The meister says tersely. He stands and tells Ming that he was going for a walk. "Jon! Sorry about him. He's….. not much of a people person. Especially. Well you and me." Ming apologizes to Midnight.

The older woman tells her it was alright. "But maybe I can do something to break through that stubborn side. I can imagine quite a few fun ways to do it." Midnight says with lick of her lips. Only to feel like she was going to wet herself at a large blade being against her throat.

She turns back slightly and sees the light covering Ming's glasses. That she adjust with hand that wasn't turned into a weapon, and could see the cold anger in the weapon woman's eyes. "You will do no such thing. And you will make no passes at my partner. Am I understood?"

Midnight squeaks out a yes and Ming retracts her blade hand. "Is it normal for you all to be a bit crazy?" Ming just shrugs before noting that they have to be at least a little insane to do what they do. "I'd say you heroes are much different." Ming notes with a smirk.

She goes out and looks for her partner. Following her nose and the dragon inside. Finally finding Jon at one of the battle fields. Even from a distance she could feel some of his soul wavelength roiling. "Jon. Hey. C'mon, don't do this again. Talk to me. Is there something going on?"

Jon gives his partner a slight glare but eases up a bit after letting out a tense breath. "I don't know. Its….. seeing the witches has a bit to do with it. But…. I don't know how to describe it but…. some of my scars and eye started acting up. It's like, I can feel her out there."

"Charybdis." Ming whispers out. She asks if there was anything else, while putting a comforting hand on his shoulder. "I'm don't know for sure. But I think she's found something. Or probably someone." Jon says with a shiver. Putting his hand on his left eye as if he could feel it aching again.

Ming gently grabs his hand before asking if he wanted to go looking for her. "No. It might just be a bad feeling from seeing the head witch. Let's get something to eat." Jon says to brush off the feeling he had. His partner wants to press him for more details, but she is willing to wait.

When they get back to the main building, Lunch Rush was cooking a bit for the younger meisters and weapons. "Hey there! Any requests?" the hero says with a gloved thumbs up. Jon just shrugs before asking if he could make a burger and some fries. While Ming ask for some fried rice and a more Chinese styled soup.

"No problem!" Lunch Rush says and he uses his quirk to quickly cook up both of their requested dishes. With Izuku, he was really enjoying the katsudon and cola he had. Mary meanwhile had asked for spaghetti and a hearty tomato meat sauce, and Jane had a spinach salad with steak strips over the top.

Johari and Muwali meanwhile wanted to try some of the more traditional Japanese dishes. "Mmm. This seared salmon is really good. And it's a bit plain, but this Miso is pretty good too." Johari comments while lifting another bit of fish to her mouth.

"This sukiyaki as they call it is really good too. Though it could a little more meat." Muwali says while munching on some of the greens. Lunch Rush gives him a probable smile and says, "coming up!" And he shaves a few more pieces of meat to cook in the pot.

Even though Jon was enjoying his meal too, he could still feel this nagging in the back of his head. And it continued into the night as well. With him even being plagued by nightmares and memories.

The feeling of the knife cutting into his arms as they pulled apart his muscles. The visions of claw like implement creeping down to his face. And the feeling of having it pulled out of his head before another was forced into his empty socket. The cuts to his chest to remove organs and replace them with others. And then being tied down and forced to be sexually active. Just for the enjoyment of the twisted women who had kidnapped him.

"Damnit! I thought I was past this." Jon said while rolling out of bed. Still feeling the pain in his eye. He sighed before getting up to get a drink of water. He washed his face a bit to clear his head again. Only to be frightened again by seeing Da Ji, Charybdis, and the other witches in the mirror.

He shouted before double palm striking the mirror. Shattering not just the mirror but part of the wall too. This wakes a few others nearby, with Ming running in first. "Jon! Jon. Hey. C'mon. Let's get you out of here."

Izuku and the others come in and see the damage he unleashed in just a burst of fear. They each ask if he's okay, but Ming tells each of them to go back to bed. "You all have something of classes in the morning. I'll take care of him."

While they do want to make sure, they do trust in the elder weapon. "Jon. Hey. Hey! Focus! I'm right here." Ming says while forcing his eye up at her face. Jon grabs her wrist and focuses his wavelength again. The guandao girl winces but she doesn't try to attack or force him to let her go.

Jon is slightly hyperventilating but he eventually focuses on her and can see what he was doing. "Sorry Ming. I just. I don't know why. But…. I'm seeing them again. I haven't this problem for years." Ming nods while remembering how destructive he was for a time when they started living together.

"Maybe it's something else. But we can't focus on that right now. You need to get some sleep. I'll be right here." Ming says before somewhat pushing Jon down onto the bed. He tries to argue, but Ming works to make sure he'll relax into sleep. She can feel his tension even as he's settling to sleep. And she stays close to try and put him at ease.

He does eventually get some sleep, but it isn't as restful as he or Ming would like. Jon grumbles as he wakes up with Ming sleeping behind him. He sighs again before covering her up to let her sleep a bit more. "Sorry Ming. You keep having to deal with all of my bullshit." Jon says before changing to be ready for the day.

Izuku and the rest had gone down already to enjoy a bit of breakfast from Lunch Rush. And then to practice a bit with their skills. "Practicing early eh?" Aizawa says while rolling into the room. In his yellow sleeping bag. "Uh yeah. I'm sorry, is it normal for people to roll into a room in a sleeping bag in this world?" Johari questions while looking at Aizawa.

"No. It's just more of a habit for me. Where's that Star person? I want to talk to him a bit about what he had in mind to practice with the students." Aizawa said while getting out of his sleeping bag.

The teens share a set of looks before Muwali steps up. "Yeah he's. He might be a little late getting in. He had a pretty bad night." Just as Aizawa is about to say that it wasn't an excuse to not being awake or ready, Jon speaks for himself. "Bad night or not, I'm not going to just grumble or ignore what I have to do."

Aizawa can see the bags under Jon's eyes but he respects that the man is still willing to put out to do his job. "So about training the students. I have something….. special in mind. Something one of my own teachers trained me in when he found I had a bit of talent with it. I think it might be a good way to give those first years a look at how someone with a strong soul fights."

Aizawa is a bit suspicious, but he goes along with it to see what the man can do. Though he is very confused by the sheer number of wooden swords packed into a pair of large scabbards. "What can you show them that would require such a weird set of tools and weapons?" Power Loader asked after making the equipment.

Jon just smiled at the two heroes before saying, "you'll see. Have both first year classes meet at….. Ah what is it? That battlefield where it's a really rocky terrain. That's where I'll show you what I plan to do."

Aizawa and PL share a look and shrug before agreeing. For the younger meisters and weapons, they are allowed to sit in on some of the classes. With Izuku, Mary, and Jane going to class 1-B, while Johari, Muwali, Melissa and Eldora join Aizawa's class 1-A.

While the 1-A group had no problem accepting most of the meister/weapon pairs, class 1-B was decidedly confused. "Whoa wait a minute! Isn't that the guy who was on the run from Mirko, Edgeshot, and All Might a few days ago!? What is he doing here!? And who are the other girls? Damn, that one has a big rack! That dark haired girl looks as tall as I am."

The last two statements were from Awase Yosetsu and Bondo Kojiro, respectively. The former of which awards him a chop from the recently elected class president, Kendo Itsuka. "Sorry about that, but it is a bit strange having all of you here. Especially considering you- well I guess all of you are- wanted in by the authorities."

"Things are a little complicated Kendo. Lets just say we owe them big after they saved class 1-A from that villain invasion." Vlad King explains at the front of the class. The hero gives a general overview of the meisters, weapons and their mission. But he stops questions by telling all of them to focus on the lesson for the day. And how it was focused on bringing out the full capabilities of their quirks.

While they were doing that, Izuku was practicing as well. Practicing his soul perception. He analyzed the students around and using what he observed to figure out what each of their quirks likely were. 'I can't really get a look at the memories like Eldora. Or personality like Johari. But if I can get a look at their quirks I can guess the basics.'

"Excuse me. Young Midoriya. You do know you're staring right?" Vlad King says with a raised eyebrow. Izuku's eyes widen a bit as the students all look back at him with confusion and a bit of suspicion. He blushes a bit while turning his head to the side. "Were you doing that for a specific reason? Does it have something to do with your abilities as a meister?" Vlad questions.

Izuku clears his throat before saying, "yeah. I'm…. well I'm using my soul perception. It lets me see some details about each of you. Namely because….. well I've found that those who posses quirks don't have souls that really look like souls."

"Especially compared to all of ours right Izu?" Mary said with a raised eyebrow. The meister nods before feeling the gazes of all of the hero students. Vlad King hums for a moment before asking Izuku to identify what the quirks of three students he pointed out.

Izuku narrowed his eyes before looking at each student. "The girl with silver hair, she has the ability to move objects. But there is a limit right? My guess, someone about the same weight as a person. The brunette guy there, he has a quirk that lets you spin some way right? Maybe a rotation or gyration type of thing. And the dark haired girl with blue eyes? Her's is a little different. But from what I can tell….. you can adjust the size of the items? Maybe?"

It surprises everyone but the students in question, Yanagi Reiko, Kaibara Sen, and Kodai Yui, give Izuku stiff nods. Especially since he identified the weaknesses and problems with some of their quirks as well.

"Interesting. So is this something only you can do?" Vlad asks while a few others look to Izuku intently. He shrugs before saying, "kind of. It's not that Soul Perception is rare. It's something meisters developed to counter witches. For the most part they look no different than a regular human. But their souls have an unmistakable tinge to them. Thanks to the magic they posses."

Jane speaks up next, noting that stopping the chaos they cause is one of the primary goals of their groupings. "There are also other special abilities associated with weapons and their miesters. For example." Jane then quickly transforms and Izuku shows off each of her different forms.

When she changes back, Jane says, "some weapons have special abilities attached to themselves. I'm part of the Henry line, so I have forms that reflect those weapons. A famous one from our world is the Nakatsukasa clan. Their whole family are ninja and their weapon forms reflect that."

While there are more questions that they all want to ask, the next class starts and they have to wait until later. The 1-A group have less to ask in comparison, given what many of them had witnessed the day before at the USJ. But there were a few curiosities that intrigued some.

Ibarra took a moment to ask Johari more about Lord Death and what he represented in their world. While others were curious about El and her mutism, as well as her golden dragon eyes. And when Mineta tried to get too close to the quiet girl's breasts, the front part of his hair was cut. Courtesy of Muwali and his wind blades.

But the real challenge for the day would come when the hero students were told to head for the rock field for their next lesson. Most of them don't know what to expect, but when the teachers pull the soul warriors away to meet with Ming, it gets a few suspicious.

The only thing they were told was to meet a new instructor in the center of the rock field. When they arrive in their hero costumes, they see Star atop a rock in the center meditating. "What's he doing there?" Ida questions tersely. Momo then advises her vice president to back off a bit. "He did save us."

"Yeah, but that still isn't much reason to trust him." The blonde boy of class 1-B Nieto Monoma says with a raised eyebrow. Itsuka rolls her eyes at that but does agree that they should approach him with a bit of caution. "Please! We can take one no powered guy!" Kamakiri says while unsheathing his blades. Bakugo is tempted to crackle explosions in his hand as usual, but he resists and eyes Izuku's teacher with concern.

When they reach the center, Star introduces himself without getting up. "I'm going to keep this simple. You'll all be facing off with me. And just me. I don't have my weapon here. I'm going to illustrate what a strong human soul can do."

He opens his right eye before standing up and adjusting the two scabbards behind his back. He then pulls another forward, cracks his neck and says, "Infinite One Sword Style." He tosses the scabbard up into the air. And the wooden blades rain down all around the teens and the surrounding rocks. Keep Out tape seems to be circling around the area as well and with a flourish of the sword in his hand, it tightens around the rocks in the area.

This shocks everyone and some question if he really doesn't have a quirk. "I don't. This is just something one of my teachers took the time to train me in. Now then. Let's begin!" Star say before taking his stance before rushing in and quickly striking four students. Those being Bakugo, Mineta (who was unconscious after getting sent headlong into a rock pillar), Tetstu, and Jurota.

The three who were still conscious after the attack were each nursing small injuries. Bakugo having a few broken fingers on his right hand. Tetsutetsu had put up his iron to defend, but that single strike had cracked it and a rib. While Jurota felt as if he had a minor broken shin bone.

The rest of the students were shocked and reacted in varying ways. A third were dumbfounded and unsure of what to do next. Like the mushroom girl Kinoko Kimori who was slack jawed. Another third of the students were scared practically senseless. Namely Koda who was looking around for a way to escape. And the last ones quickly took combat stances. Like Momo, who made a shield and staff with her quirk, and Itsuka who enlarged her hands to try and catch the next attack.

Jon turned slowly to get a feel for what each of the students might do. And when he felt it out with his soul, he smiled. Unsettling the students even more. He struck again to take more of the students out of the fight. None of them could keep up with his attacks and more were injured as the spar went on.

He didn't just show what he could do with the sword in his hand. He also gave many of them small tastes of his wavelength attacks. Shown when he struck the two hardheaded heroes to knock them back. Then threw the sword in his hand and another near him to knock out Jurota and Kaminari, who were leaping in to get a shot at the man. Only to be met with wooden swords to their faces. He then charged forward, struck both hard heads' center masses, and blasted them back into unconsciousness.

Momo and her fellow class president found it equally as brutal. Even when she used flash grenades to hopefully take him off guard, the man was still able to track them and brutalize them.

With his eye closed, he found where she was and struck her shield arm with his wooden sword. And shattered the shield and bones in her arm. He then struck her stomach to knock her into the air, before grabbing three more swords and placing them in the ground in front of her. "Sword Fang!" Jon announced before striking the blades and hitting her dead center. And making her cough up a bit of vomit and blood.

When Itsuka tried to capitalize on him focusing on Momo, he surprised her with a new strike. "Vertical Line!" Jon said before striking each of the blades and sending them right at the girl. The strike home on her and send her careening into the rocks behind her.

Others are quickly taken out by other strikes or blows from the warrior's soul force attacks. But a few manage to hold on long enough to try and counter attack. A group of five more close quarter focused students (led by Ida) rush at him, but Jon barely gives them a thought before twisting his blade to the side.

"Jumbled Lineup." He says before throwing the blade to strike all the swords around him. Sending them up into the air and striking the students before his thrown sword returns to his hand. Each of the students is struck more than twenty times before the attack is finished.

Jon feels something strange at his feet and quickly leaps into the air. "Damn! I thought I had you!" Honenuki Juzo says while coming out of the patch of ground he had softened. "Well no matter. I can at least remove the swords around us and make sure you're stopped!"

"Don't so sure." Jon says before adjusting one of the scabbards on his back, while taking a runners stance. Juzo quickly dives back into the softened ground, to avoid the rush he assumes is coming. But that isn't what Jon was planning on.

He kicks the scabbard with the heel of his boot and launches a barrage of swords into the ground. Impacting into the quicksand like earth and continuing on to their target. With Juzo being struck more than a dozen times before the attack is done. Floating up to the surface of the quicksand, with a battered costume.

"I've had enough!" Kamakiri shouts while unleashing his blades and charging at Jon. He wasn't alone as Bakugo had blasted toward the warrior as well. He couldn't direct as well with his right, but he still had plenty of power to spare. "DIEEEE!" he shouts while pulling the pin on his left gauntlet after Kamakiri had been knocked back.

Jon is barely singed by the attack, as right when the explosion was coming close he flared up his soul to create a counter force and dissipate the power. "You two are the only ones left. I think it's time to finish this."

"Getting full of yourself aren't you!?" Kamakiri rages while making a myriad of blade appear. Bakugo is also mad but he's a bit more measured in facing off with Jon again. But the warrior doesn't give them a chance to think of a way to fight.

He's in front of both of them before they even realize it and he struck Kamakiri dead center with his sword. Before Bakugo or Kamakiri can even think of counter attacking, Jon grabs another sword and strikes Bakugo's back.

"Addition Mode." They both hear Jon mutter before he sprints around so fast they can't keep up. He strikes each of them with more blades until there are twelve swords sitting across their bodies. "Multiplication Mode." The two heroes vaguely hear before Jon picks up another sword. And then rapidly struck every one of the wooden blades still stuck to them.

Culminating with a blow that seemed as though he went through them both. With the swords that were attached to them appearing to cut through their bodies and create circles around them. Circles that made it look like an infinity symbol.

Not that the two knew this. The had been unconscious after the first six or so hits. In the observation room, the heroes were shocked, scared, impressed, and dumbfounded at the skills and techniques shown. Let alone how powerful the last attack Jon had unleashed on the teens was.

Present Mic gulped before saying, "we all agree right? We never fight this guy!" His fellow teachers agree and pray a bit that they never have to face anyone like that. After the teens had been retrieved from the battlefield, Recovery Girl spent the next half hour working to restore each of them.

When Jon walked in and leaned against the door, she proceeded to go over and smack him in the knee with her cane. "I hope you're happy! I can't fully heal all of the broken bones Bakugo and Kamakiri have. I can only restore them partially before setting the bones again and letting them rest!"

Jon rolls his eyes before saying he did have a reason behind it. "And what kind of reason would that be? To show some strange form of superiority?" Momo says with a grunt while her arm is in a sling. Kendo agrees and asks, "did you do some of this to show that those without quirks have more power or potential?"

"No you dumb bitches, I have a reason. But I don't want to repeat myself so I'll wait until the rest wake up." Jon says before walking off. Kendo and Momo both look scandalized at the way he referred to the two of them, with Recovery Girl even more furious.

He ends up waiting for an hour given the amount of injuries he inflicted. When the students eventually come to, they are escorted by the other heroes to a lecture room. Most of them still have bandages on or their limbs are in slings or boots.

"Do we really have to meet with him again?" Kinoko says fearfully. This is a question a few others asks as they are headed to the room. As they are arriving, they hear growling and then a roar from what sounds like Star. Vlad steps up first, while signaling for the students to get back.

Power Loader pulls out a shield and a taser gun, while Midnight looks ready to restrain with a whip or her quirk. When they open the door, the podium is destroyed and Jon's right hand is right above it. While his left is holding his left eye. "GRAAAAAA!" Jon roars while collapsing to his knees.

This terrifies the students again and one asks what he could be angry about. PL and Vlad ease forward before trying to confront the young man. The Support hero gathers his courage and asks, "are you alright? What's going on with you?"

"Just stay back! Just…. Just give me a minute! Damnit! What's going on?! Why now!?" Jon growls as he still feels pain in his eye. Let alone his other scars. He doesn't stand, but his breathing eases and he leans against the wall while still gripping his face.

He relaxes enough to where the students start to peek in to see what is going on. Jon is still breathing a bit hard, but he signals that they can come in. "I think I'm okay. A lot of things stopped hurting." Jon says while wiping a cold sweat from his brow.

The way he was acting had all of the UA group confused and scared. Students especially. But the man seemed to be regaining control and stood to address the students. "you two had asked if I had a reason to do all of that. There was. Part of it was to show that a lot of you are way to straightforward with the ways you fight. How many of you thought you could take me because I only had a bunch of swords strapped to my back?"

While none of them initially answer or raise their hands, a raised eyebrow for a questioning look is enough to make a few break. At the end, about 30 students assumed they would be able to handle Jon by themselves or with a combination of quirks. "Well as you all felt, that didn't turn out too well for you. There was something else, it'll take a bit to explain but bear with me."

Jon then gives the students some of the details of the world he was from. Let alone how he, his partner, and one of the greatest dangers to this world had arrived. Hearing that terrified the students again, while some of the boys were looking to Jon and his partner as the strongest or 'manliest' duo around.

"So then….. I'm sorry, I think I missed something. What was the point to beating us all SENSELESS?!" Itsuka said after shaking out of her stupor at the world Jon was from. Jon just gave her a look before saying, "the point was to show you what a strong soul could do. Most of those witches don't just have magic. They have VERY strong souls. Trust me I know." Jon says while feeling the patch over his left eye.

He then points out that if he, with just his human soul, could unleash that much pain then the magic and madness of the witches would be worse. "They all have the Pull of Magic. A destructive instinct that unleashes large amounts of chaos, destruction, and death. And many of those bitches enjoy it. They enjoy the suffering of others and the destruction they cause."

Jon continues on that they were always women and had animal like qualities that even related to their soul wavelengths. And that they didn't always create witches or sorcerers if they had children.

"It's been the general mission of the DWMA to keep the peace by eliminating evil souls and then witches. Though the latter had been quieter in the last 30 years or so. At least until Da Ji and her acomplic… es had… started… What now!?"

The warrior felt new sets of pain through his old wounds and scars. This time more focused on his arms. As he could feel them being stitched up and partially taken apart again. When Vlad steps over to check on him, Jon tells him to stay back again. This time his gripping of his eyepatch is enough that it snaps and comes off his head.

The kids all get a look at his mismatched eyes and it unsettled some. Mainly Ida as Jon had started staring right at him. "Sei! Ida! Why is that?! Gah!" Jon muttered after feeling more stabbing sensations on his body. He grips onto his arm and face so tight he starts to draw blood. Which is enough for Vlad to step in and pull his arms back.

Jon would normally be able to break free but the resounding pain is making it hard to focus his strength. "Easy kid! Easy!" Vlad says before bear hugging the young man. He breathes deep as Ming runs in after hearing some of his shouts.

"Is it her? Jon? Can you still feel her?" Ming asks while her meister tries to catch his breath. Jon registers what his weapon had asked though and gives a nod to say it was who she suspected. "So she's active again. But what is she doing?" Ming questions aloud while Jon stands up.

Aizawa, who is mummy bandaged up, asks who Ming and Jon were talking about. The weapon looks to her meister to see if he was okay with talking about this, and his nod is enough. "Charybdis. She's one of the ones who… who experimented and took Jon's body apart. For almost ten years. Since he was five or six years old."

This shocks everyone in the room. With some being sickened at the idea, others looking at Jon with a mix of pity and horror, and others terrified of the idea of that person being in this world. Nezu meanwhile questioned why this was affecting him now.

"I don't know. Not exactly. I can….. just feel some of the pain… from…. whoever she's got now…. Like I can feel her messing with someone. I can see that smile as she pulls out muscles and blood vessels. Like she did when she was taking apart my arms." Jon says while feeling his hands and arms.

Nezu nods before saying, "I think you've given enough information on what it is that is threatening the nation now. Not to mention the danger of those who have strong souls. Get some rest. You don't look like you've slept at all." Jon comments that he hadn't and thanked the principal before walking out.

Before he leaves though, he looks back up to the students and fixes his gaze on Tenya. A gaze the bespectacled boy notices as well. Jon walks out and wonders what his name had to do with the pain he was feeling.

That maybe seemed a bit too leading, but I want to get to the next arc and the person they'll have to fight. Let alone the stage for what the students will have to adjust to in the face of those with power of a strong soul. Please review!
