Chapter 21:

"I need 50 cc's of adrenaline stat! Where is the ambulance with the second-"

"It's arriving right now, doctor," a nurse running alongside the stretcher with the first doctor replied back to him. "The condition of the second patient is critical."

"So is this one's," another doctor said, while holding pressure down on the large wound on the green-skinned man's side. The figure on the stretcher had a bloody police officer's uniform on, and the cop was bleeding out from the injury on his side. "Whatever the villain hit him with, the bleeding won't stop."

"Let me look at that," the doctor on the other side of the stretcher stopped them and he moved the other man's hands off of the wound. He lifted the white bandages and there was a lot of dark blood all over them. "Damn it, whatever the power was, it's stopping the blood from clotting."

"Poison?" The nurse questioned in shock. "We didn't even consider-"

"It was reported as a stab wound from the villain's morphing arm, there was no-"

"His heart rate is dropping!"

"Doctor Matthews!"

The doctor leading this stretcher spun and he grit his teeth at the sight of a female colleague leading another stretcher towards them in the wide emergency operating room. "This patient is crashing! We need the crash cart now…"

On the side of the ER, a woman sitting behind a desk leaned over and watched as the second stretcher was wheeled past into an operating room. She could hear all the doctors shouting back there, and more staff were running over from around the hospital. The emergency room was not very full with patients, but all the ones in there had stopped what they were doing and the line in front of the woman at the counter had even turned to see what the commotion was about. Some people sitting on chairs in there waiting for help started talking about the news they were seeing on their phone where a couple of new villains had appeared downtown and were causing a huge mess.

The middle-aged woman behind the counter sat back down though as she heard something shouted in the next room over. She had long purple hair that was starting to gray, and her gaze shifted over to a picture frame she had on her desk, a few inches from the phone. She looked at the frame and saw herself standing between her two sons, the taller one in a green graduation gown, the younger one shorter than his mother. She had her arm around his side and down on his shoulder, and both of her sons were smiling at the camera as she was. She gulped and then reached out for the frame, only her hand reached a little to the side and to the phone. She opened the drawer in front of her at the same time, then told a patient in front of her to wait because of the current situation when the man tried starting back up about his arm that he thought he had broken but was not sure of.

She picked up the phone and glanced down at a sticky note she took out of her drawer. The woman took in a deep breath, then she typed the number and put the receiver up to her head. The phone rang twice, then a deep voice picked up, "Yes?"

"Mr. Smith?" She began hesitantly. She saw the patient in front of her watching her in confusion, and she removed the hesitant and nervous look from her face. "This is Ms. Sanders, Katy Sanders, from Musutafu General-"

"Has there been a fatality?"

"I, I believe an accident just caused a death," she continued, turning around in her chair as she spoke, thinking the man before her might figure out something was weird about what she was saying. "There could be a second fatality as well, I am hearing the conditions are both critical. No, no one is definitely dead already… I don't hear them shouting anymore, so that probably means the second is either stable or- yes, yes I'll try. I promise so please- yes, yes I understand. Of course, I will. Th-Thank you."

At U.A. High School, Class-A had finally settled into their dorms. They had just gone through another day of intense training and working on special moves in order to prepare for the Hero License exam and start of the semester. Some of them were making editions to their costumes, others were changing up their fighting styles, and all of them were working their hardest to get themselves ready.

After returning to the dorms, Kaminari Denki grabbed his phone before heading over to the common space on the first floor. He plopped onto a couch and leaned back, letting out a long breath of exhaustion while putting his hands behind his head. He did not know how many times that day he had short-circuited his mind while working on his Quirk. I really need to think of a way to fix that, or there's no way I'm going to pass. I can definitely output more though, before I go stupid.

He sighed and then sat up as a couple of girls walked into the room along with Sero. "Yo," Kaminari said as they walked over.

Jirou smirked at the blond boy who the last time she saw him, he had been walking in a straight line with a totally blank expression on his face. She mimicked it as she walked towards the couch, and Sero and Hagakure started laughing which made Kaminari grumble in annoyance. "Like you're not all exhausted after today," Kaminari said.

Jirou sighed and then turned, falling back on the couch while shrugging and saying, "I guess."

"I thought your new costume looked great, Kaminari," Toru Hagakure said. Kaminari's face brightened at the compliment and he started going on about it. Jirou glanced to her right at the boy who was grinning and talking excitedly to Hagakure, and she frowned at him before leaning back on the couch and putting her own hands behind her head. Jirou let out a long yawn, then she started staring at the ceiling quietly.

Sero and Hagakure sat down too, and while the two of them started talking, Kaminari lifted up his phone as he got a message from someone. He spotted who it was from and lifted an eyebrow. Why not just come find me? Kaminari thought, as he saw Kirishima's name on the message and knew the boy was somewhere in the same building. He sighed but opened up his phone anyway, then his eyes started widening and he straightened in his seat. Kaminari started typing fast as he went on the internet, and the two in front of him stopped talking and turned to him seeing his expression shift frantically.

"What's up?" Sero questioned.

Jirou lowered her gaze from the ceiling and turned to Kaminari, then she opened her mouth to make a joke, only for Kaminari's eyes to open huge as he stopped typing. He started sliding a finger down as he was reading something, then he lifted his other hand and ran it up through his spiky blond hair while more sweat formed on his face. "What the…" he began, before lowering his phone and staring up at the ceiling. "What are you doing?"

"Let me see that," Jirou grabbed Kaminari's phone from him and she scrolled back up to the top of what he was reading. "Oh? Yeah I heard about this," she began, glancing at Kaminari in some confusion as to his reaction. She turned to the other two as Sero asked what she was talking about, and Jirou said, "A pair of villains popped up in Musutafu today. I heard that Midnight sensei and Snipe sensei actually left school to go help take care of them."

"Were they strong?" Sero wondered, glancing towards Kaminari to see what had him running his hands up through his hair, and what had the corners of his lips curling up even as he looked really nervous.

"I guess," Jirou began as she looked back at the phone. Her expression darkened and she continued, "Actually, it looks like they killed two…" Jirou stopped speaking as she scrolled down a little farther. "What the-" she spun to Kaminari, only to see him look back at her with a huge smile on his face, despite the panicked look to it.

"What is it?" Hagakure asked, getting nervous herself now as Jirou's expression started to look more like Kaminari's did when he first read what he was looking at.

Jirou gulped and then started reading what she had just seen, though she read it aloud this time, "At 2:34, and 2:37 P.M., two deaths were called at Musutafu General Hospital." Jirou took a few deep breaths, then she continued, "But at 2:40 P.M., both Officer Haga Tonari, and the deceased civilian Kyoyako Suna… were resuscitated. Eye-witness reports claim a, masked man, appeared…" Jirou shook her head a few times, then she continued quietly, "Out of a portal. Brought both patients back to life. And then left." Kyoka Jirou reached a hand up to her head and she started scratching it while lifting her gaze back to Hagakure and Sero. She could not see how Hagakure was reacting, but Sero's eyes were huge as he spun back to Kaminari who nodded at him with a big grin on his face.

"You think-" Sero began.

"For sure," Kaminari replied. "I know it," he said.

"Zach?" Hagakure whispered. Kaminari looked towards the invisible girl and nodded his head at the space above the top of her collar.

"I don't get it," Sero said, shaking his head as he tried to piece this together. "Why would the portal guy, help Zach-"

"Maybe," Jirou began, her expression getting darker as she did. Kaminari turned to her and his smile lowered at the hesitant look she gave him, "Zach made a deal with them. Maybe, if they let him…"

"No way," Kaminari started.

"Then why would they help him?" Sero asked. Kaminari spun back with wide eyes, wondering how none of them were as excited about this as he was.

"Zach's fine," Kaminari said, grinning at the others as if they were missing the main point of this. "And he's saving people."

"But," Hagakure whispered. "Does this mean, he went through the portal himself?"

Kaminari lost his smile and he stared at the invisible girl in shock. He opened his mouth to reply, then he froze and his heart started racing. Of course he didn't! Unless, what if- Zach's smart so, what if he thought of doing this even then? Right at that moment?

"Either way," Sero began, and the other three turned towards him. "I don't know what to think, but to me, it sounds like Zach just saved two people. So," he grinned, his big smile stretching across the whole bottom half of his face. "I'm glad he's still a good guy."

"Ha, of course he is," Kaminari said, laughing that Sero even had to mention it. He threw his hands behind his head and leaned back on the couch. "I don't know what he's doing. I never really got, what he was thinking," his smile lowered down a little. He thought about a video he had watched several times in the past week. "My dad, he, he died because of me!" "You left a ten year old boy to live on his own?" "That is not a child!" "I, never really understood him at all," Kaminari continued, his voice lower as he whispered it. "He never told me a thing… but, I still know what kind of person Zach is. And if he's saving people, it's because he's using the portal-guy, not the other way around."

After a few seconds, the girl on Kaminari's left nodded her head. "Zach does, think a lot," Jirou admitted with a shrug. "Sometimes too much though," she added. "That's, what got him in trouble in the first place."

"But what did he really do wrong?" Kaminari asked, then he shut his mouth fast as the other three all spun to him. "Not that, killing villains is alright," he muttered. "But, you know what happened that first time," Kaminari said while looking into Jirou's eyes. "Do you really still think, he could have-"

"No," Jirou replied. "I get it now."

"And if that Compress guy was trying to capture any of you," Kaminari said, looking back to Hagakure and Sero, "wouldn't you use your Quirk to fight back against him?"

Sero shrugged and tilted his head to the side, then he nodded it, "Yeah, of course."

Hagakure did not know how to answer that question, but she nodded her head anyway, which still didn't give anyone an answer since they couldn't see her nod. "That's right," Kaminari said after a second. "So I don't care about all that stuff the news is saying about him. I'm sure they'll piece it together that he's the guy in the hospital too. Some people still don't believe he saved Kirishima though, so that's probably the only reason they haven't said it yet."

"What happens when people find out?" Jirou wondered. Kaminari looked to her, and she continued, "He might have saved them, but if he went back through the portal afterwards, on his own… If he's using his Quirk, even though the judge told him he couldn't…"

"Then, that makes him a villain," Sero said, and Kaminari's eyes opened huge. They widened that big, because he could not deny what they just said. Sero leaned back in his chair and muttered, "That, stinks." He rubbed his forehead then added quieter, "What is Zach thinking?"

Jirou looked towards Sero, then she lowered her gaze to the floor between them. I want- we all want him to come back here. But, even if he did come back, he can't be a part of our class anymore. Is that… Jirou lifted a hand and put it in front of her face a few inches off. She thought about how Zach looked at her, when she looked at him in fear at the Sports Festival. What were we, to him?

"Kaminari," Hagakure began in a whisper. The others looked towards her, and she continued, "Remember when we went to the mall? Zach said we could have that party at his house, because his Aunt wouldn't care-" she had to stop herself and grimaced as she now knew that Zach had been lying to them back then. "He- he wanted to spend more time, outside of class with the rest of us." Jirou stared towards the invisible girl with her eyes wide, thinking about how she was just wondering about this. "We, should have had that party," Hagakure whispered.

Kaminari frowned, and he nodded his head. Zach. I'm sorry I never noticed. I wish, you would have told me.

Midoriya lay on his bed late at night, on his side with his phone in front of him. He had seen a message in the class's group chat, and since then, other news articles had come out about the incident. The boy with curly green hair stared at the article that started with a picture taken at Musutafu General, a picture that caught the side of the face of a figure in a black mask. The boy had a crew cut of black hair above the top of the mask, and he had light skin that could be seen through the holes on it and on his neck. He scrolled down and saw pictures of the two victims, both of whom had no injuries whatsoever.

"The masked figure grabbed Ms. Kyoyako with his right hand, and his hand and wrist turned black as he yelled in pain. He had on long sleeves so we could not see how far up the blackness went, but after a few seconds of him screaming, he stopped and moved on to the other deceased patient. Officer Haga took a few seconds longer, and his screams were more painful. Then he sluggishly turned and walked through a portal that opened up behind him. It all happened so fast…" Midoriya lowered his phone to his bed, putting the screen down so that his room became dark.

Izuku Midoriya rolled onto his back and stared straight up at the ceiling. He thought back a week ago, how he had jumped out of his seat. How he and Todoroki had tried pushing past people going the other direction. He imagined Midnight and Vlad King getting knocked out of the way, and how he had barely stopped to see if they were alright, sliding under Kamui Woods' Quirk instead to get closer. I was right there. He was within reach, Midoriya thought, as he imagined how he had leapt up in the air using Full Cowling, how he had gotten high enough up that he could see over the portal blocking off Zach and the rest of the room. But, Midoriya thought, and he rolled back on his other side so he was facing the wall this time. In his head he saw Zach turning left, and stepping through the portal with that dark, calm look on his face. How do you save someone, who doesn't want to be saved? Should I have swung towards him, to stop him from doing it… If I had, how long would it have been, before the villains just went after him at home? If it was his choice to go with them- I thought he would be killed trying to fight them. I thought, he was going to do something so stupid, that he would try fighting even with that box on his arm- but I didn't swing at him. Why?

Was it because it was his choice? Or, was it because of the verdict… or… Midoriya thought about Zach's look, when he turned from the judge and faced the rest of the courtroom. He clenched his eyes shut, but he could not get that look out of his eyes. He looked, he looked- betrayed. Like every one of us sitting there, watching as his dreams were shattered… we were all at fault. That's what I saw at least, when I saw those eyes. But Zach didn't just go there and fight. I was afraid, he had died, and I didn't stop him. I knew I had messed up, but, he must not have tried attacking the villains. I thought for sure, but he didn't. Instead, he's working with them. Even after everything they did to us. He's working with them- to save lives? "I have to change the answer… Was it good that I was born? All I want to do, is change the answer to that. And you won't let me…"

Midoriya lay on his back again, and he kicked his legs out a few times as they were feeling sore from training earlier. That lingering soreness was not what was keeping him awake all night though, and he knew it. He put his legs back down, and he stared straight up at his ceiling that was visible now that his eyes had adjusted to the darkness. He stared at a poster of All Might, and he thought about his hero going up on stand. I know, he's not allowed to lie. But, but for the teachers to have said those things. All Might, must blame himself. I should talk to him about it. What should we do? How do we, get Zach back?

Zach Sazaki lay on his bed in the League of Villains' lair. His door opened and he struggled to sit up as fast as he could. He swung his legs off the side of his bed, his body slouched, and his head lifted up with some difficulty to face the man standing there. "You're really that exhausted, from saving just two people?" Dabi asked, looking down on him from the doorway that was barely more illuminated than Zach's dark room.

"When I use my Quirk, to save people at least, I feel so much pain and exhaustion," Zach said.

"Only when you use it to bring back from the dead?" Dabi asked, lifting his eyebrows. "What about when you kill? What do you feel then?"

Zach's eyes lowered, but for the first time in his life, for the first time ever, he felt like answering this question truthfully would not make the person in front of him look at him like he was insane. "Pleasure," Zach whispered. His eyes shot open wide and he lifted his head to Dabi, only to wince as even that criminal was staring at him with wide eyes after he said that. "It's not my fault. I just, feel good," Zach said. "I'm disgusted by the feeling. It's not like I actually like doing it, but, but my body fills with…" Zach shook his head around, not knowing why he felt the need to explain himself to a villain who killed Kirishima without remorse. "Why are you here?" Zach asked.

"Let's go train your power," Dabi said.

Zach's eyes opened wide. Dabi smirked at him and then motioned out the door he was standing in. "We've gathered up a large number of animals. The quicker you get your power under control, the fewer of them you have to kill," Dabi said.

"I don't like killing animals," Zach began. He stood up and rolled his arms a few times, trying to work off his exhaustion. He looked down at his right hand that had a steel box on it. "But let's do it. It'll be worth it, if I can control Death."

Dabi nodded at him, then he tossed a key towards Zach. "Let's go."

They're becoming more lenient with it, Zach thought, as he started taking off his hand's cage. And they even let me use my power, somewhere populated this time. Kurogiri always sent me to isolated areas before, morgues where the body had just been brought in. Sometimes it failed, so now I know it's between twenty and thirty minutes, but still. I'm learning. The other ones were counted as mistakes, mysterious awakenings by patients the doctors thought were dead. This time though, they must have wanted me to be seen. Maybe, they thought sending me somewhere public on the first time, I would try to escape. But I'm five people in now. Five lives saved, and I haven't had to take one. Now I'm training Death to not kill people too? I, I won't use my Quirk on them. Not yet, not, not for a while. This is making me too much stronger. They're willing to take risks with my training. They're willing to send me places I could get arrested, willing to break all the rules, and I'm getting stronger because of it. I'm learning more about my Quirk, than I ever did at U.A. Saving more people, than if I was just sitting in a classroom, trying to get a useless piece of paper that would only restrict what I can do more… But I have to remember, I am not one of them. I am here, for my own reasons. The second they start making me do things, that don't involve saving people, that are villainous- I have to be able to tell the difference. I know what they're trying to do. Move one step at a time, until the next step up doesn't seem like that big a jump. But I can't let that happen. I am neither a hero nor a villain, but I have to keep my own code. What code? What code do I live by?

Zach walked out of the room and followed after Dabi, but his eyes narrowed down at the back of the man in front of him. I'll have to make up that code soon. Because the longer I'm here, the more I don't want to leave. The more, this guy who KILLED Kirishima, doesn't actually seem like a bad guy. Stain's radical ideas, that's all Dabi follows. But, I'm against that fake hero stuff too now. That makes me, more like Dabi than it does- No! Don't think like that. I'm a hero, in my own way. It's not the kind of hero that society recognizes. But as long as I am saving lives. As long as I do, the right thing, then it doesn't matter if I don't follow the rules. I'll make my own rules, my own code, and I'll live by that. And if I'm wrong, and the world starts going to shit because of what I'm doing, or Shigaraki Tomura starts attacking everyone again, I'll just kill 'em all.

A/N Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoyed the chapter. Leave a review below telling me what you think, questions, or predictions! Alright review responses... (whoa, that's a lot):

I-R-Stormzz chapter 20 . Jul 1

Hope we get a chapter dedicated to everyone's reaction to Zach joining the Villians. I Really want to see how Class 1A reacted to all of this.

Jumping straight into the next week, so, sorry 'bout that. We get some Class-A scenes here though, and it seems like people don't really know that Zach went through the portal on his own (except for Midoriya who saw him step through). Thanks for the review!

LordOfTee chapter 20 . Jul 2

So! after reading this chapter I thought to myself what would Zach's full title be? And I think I thought of the perfect name The Heroic Villain: Lifebringer.
This chappy was sorta sad for me in the beginning because it really showed how Zach was cracking I mean his outburst was very justified it really showed how he cared about his father's legacy and for someone to essentially spit on that legacy without a thought was sorta heart wrenching.
Other than that thanks for the awesome chapter i'm really getting invested into this story!

Awesome name XD. Definitely getting darker here as Zach's gone to the dark side, glad I could make you feel for him at the start of last chapter. Glad you're invested and thanks for the review!

animelover78861 chapter 20 . Jul 1

Wow i just started reading this story and I'm obsessed. I wonder What the heroes and the world will react cause there the ones who caused this

Thanks! I also wonder how they're all reacting... did not see much of it this time, but next chapter's a longer one again where we'll see more- but no spoilers!

D-Koy24 chapter 20 . Jul 2

So is he changing his name to Grim Reaper?He mentioned it a few chapters back as a possible hero name (anti-hero in this case)
Not surprised that old hand-face has plans to change Zach into a true villain,oh how are his classmates (former classmates) going to react about this?Im SO EXCITED for the next chapter!
~D-Koy 'Hoooooo!'

Guess I should've made a full react chapter huh? Lots of people looking for that, but with the way Zach got taken/ disappeared/ left with the villains, I didn't really think spending a scene showing everyone looking shocked at a tv was worth it. Really, it just didn't cross my mind at the time :p. Anyway, we'll see if he decides to switch up his name and how he'll move from here on... Thanks for the reviews!

Roxas Itsuka chapter 20 . Jul 2

Awesome chapter. It's tragic to see how far Zach has been pushed until he finally snaps and joins the other side. Still, it's interesting to see him become an anti-hero. In the next chapter, will it show the heroes and Zach's aunt dealing with what has happened? Keep up the good work.

Thanks! Zach snaps but now he's getting what he always wanted... Anti-hero time! No react chapter, hopping straight into the next arc: Bad Zach Arc. Haha thanks for the review, and hope you enjoyed the chapter!

An Average Jo chapter 20 . Jul 2

I have no doubt that you will be able to write a story not following cannon really interesting. Really looking forward to see his (ex-)classmates reaction to him going anti-hero. Hopefully they fight. It will look really badass :D

Thanks! I'm not going to rely on the manga/wiki that much (or at all) moving forward. Now that Zach's not with Class A, we wouldn't see much of the same stuff anyway. Wound up spoiling some stuff for myself as I tried writing other scenes farther in this, but I tried not to put anything into the story that hasn't been shown in the anime yet. How will his ex-classmates react if they run into Zach again? Maybe we'll find out... Hope you enjoyed!

QuirklessGorilla chapter 20 . Jul 2

Nooooo! Zack's becoming a villain.
i cant wait to know what happens.
also good job and you post the chapters alot instead of like 1 per month :DDD

Zach no! Well, at least he's helping people? Thanks for the review! (and I write fast, got 3 more chapters done yesterday actually, so I'll be keeping the pace up!)

Thebloodlord chapter 20 . Jul 2

While I like the chapter, I think he went to the villains side to quickly, he may hate hero society but he has a strong sense of what a right and wrong. I think he should leave the first chance he gets. Furthermore, Azawa loves all his students i don't he he would sit there and watch as his student was stripped of becoming a hero. He should go back to UA and have the ability to become a hero after this arc. Also a little romance would be nice yes?

let me clarify, I do understand Zacks actions, but the heros and teachers did nothing do defend him when he was on trial as far as we know, THAT is out of character for them.

Zach's still holding onto that sense, even if he is on the villains' side now. He just knows he can't do a thing staying on the right side of the law, while now he has the chance to save people that was almost taken from him. Also, I don't think the teachers really would have stood up for him. Zach went through the portal on his own, he killed another villain, the heroes even mentioned back when they first had the talk after apologizing to Zach after USJ, that if he did it again there would be nothing they could do. Still, All Might and Aizawa did try to deflect the questions or give more information, but up on the stand it's up to the lawyers to ask them the questions and their job to answer, not to try and defend or prosecute Zach themselves, as when All Might tried to defend him the prosecutor cut him off. Anyway, glad you liked the chapter though, and hope you enjoyed the new one! Thanks for reviewing!

BlueGrey chapter 20 . Jul 2

Christ on a bike that was ROUGH
I am so excited about this turn of events, to see him truly betrayed by everyone he's ever looked to for guidance, even the society he was lived and breathed his whole life
I serious cannot wait to see how he grows as an anti-hero, I truly think that'd suit him more than a hero would've anyway

Glad you're getting into it! Zach's saving lives, but he's also thinking some dark thoughts there at the end of the chapter. We'll see where it goes from here! Thanks!

Guest chapter 20 . 7h ago

Are you going to update the photo for this fic specifically? I like it alot.

Possibly. And thanks!

Guest chapter 20 . 6h ago

So, I know Zack can't kill himself with his own power. But when he was younger and didn't know. How did he function as a normal human being? Did he get different sized gloves growing up? How did he cut his nails as a kid, if everything that touch his hands died? Does it have a 5 finger activation requirement? or any part of his hand? Can you explain his knockout ability against Ganeshi? Will Zack ever return to U.A., what about his buddies in Class B? What about the people who care about him?

I don't think it would be very hard. The doctors gave him the special glove, so I'm sure he was able to ask for a new one if it got too small on him. Cutting his nails? Use a nail clipper, and since it was himself even if he touched it wouldn't matter, since only touching his own chest or head activates Nightmare. Won't explain any of that other stuff though. The more Zach learns about his Quirk, the more we'll learn about it. And we'll see about that other stuff soon... Thanks for the review! Hope this cleared it up a bit.

Fan chapter 20 . 5h ago

I really like this story. Zack's powers keep growing. He's like a combination of Midnight and Aizawa.
What was that mist thing that came from Nightmare? Does it also knockout?
Will Zack learn how to fight like Aizawa and knock people out with his power?
Though I am worried about the direction of this story... The summary gives it the idea that Zack struggles to continue being a hero? Will he really just join up with the LoV? Another rescue? Will he rejoin U.A. after demonstrating finer control?
I'm worried because I like how you developed this character and I feel bad for the shit he's been through.
Was there a reason for killing Mr. Compress? Please, update as soon as you can.

Thanks! Zach's powers grow and he's starting to train them with the League of Villains! What other things might he learn about his powers? Can he make them stronger? Will he start using weapons? Where will Zach go from here? All questions that I will not answer, 'cause no spoilers! Zach's got it rough, but I'm glad you're worried about him, makes it feel like I'm doing a good job here. Haha thanks again for the review!

-Thanks again everyone for reviewing! I really did not think that this story would gain so much traction in a couple weeks that I'd have this many people reviewing to each chapter (or for some of you it was the first time), but still there were a lot for having posted this like 30 hours ago. So even though I haven't been doing these responses on every chapter, the following times I do do review responses, I'm going to pick out a couple and respond to them. It just makes the chapter word # way too skewed when a 4 and 1/2 thousand chapter like this comes out a thousand words+ over, and well, it's a lot of editing work adding all these. Hope to still see all the reviews those despite this, and well, I hope y'all enjoyed!
