"You three will be assigned to this." Saix told the three apprentices as he handed them their assigned papers. Xakuras, Ixon and Xion looked at their papers and the three are uneasy. "Your mission is to find and aid Turanox in the world he's stuck in. He's been gone for too long and the Superior wants to find out why he's gone dark. Our Intel indicates that Heartless are preparing to infest this world. Make sure to clear it out before it becomes a thorn to our side." and with that, the Corridor of Darkness appeared and the three walked in.
"Ixon, if Turanox is part of this organization..." Xakuras spoke up as Ixon nodded her head. "We'll get our answers from that bastard. He better have a good reason why our world is devoured by darkness." she growled as she clenched her hand into a fist while Xion quietly walked behind them. As they walked into the new world, they beheld a great plain before their eyes and a powerful sense of peace overwhelming them, any desire for violent retribution gone as Xion looked around. "This must be some sort of barrier, and a powerful one too." she spoke up, getting the attention of the other two apprentices. "We should investigate any nearby towns for clues on Turanox's whereabouts. Any clue that could drop a hint of our missing comrade would be vital for our mission." the hooded girl told them as she walked east.
"Then there's also the Heartless that are building a nest on this world." Xakuras added as the pair followed their senior. "I never seen a Heartless before, but we should be alright if we pick our battles, right?" Ixon asked as the three remained quiet.
"Partner, you're alright!" Corrin cried out as the dark royal ran up and hugged the dragon who merely snorted in mild amusement. "Good to see you as well my liege." Turanox mentally replied to his friend. "So this dragon is yours?" a male voice spoke as Turanox turned and hissed at the source, which was Ryoma himself. "Partner, you alright?" Corrin asked, a hint of concern in their voice as Ryoma sighed. "We got off on the wrong foot at the Bottomless Canyon, he doesn't seem happy with me at all." Ryoma answered as Corrin inspected Turanox's wounds, noticing a recent one was covered in salve. "Who did that?" Corrin asked. "I'm the one who treated it." Azura spoke as she introduced herself to Corrin.
As Corrin was getting to know Azura and how she found Turanox, said Nobody used is tail to slither up from behind Ryoma and quickly swiped his feet, causing the high prince to fall flat on his face as the dragon chuckled.
Unaware of the person watching said Nobody, Hinata noticed something was off with the dragon, the posture, its eyes, and that laugh reminded her of Naruto quite a bit and she didn't know why.
/Tides of Fate-Prologue/
Few days have passed, with Turanox's antics on Ryoma that the dragon could possibly do made the high prince wary of a possible sneak attack; moldy toast, flying eggs, a talking fish that slapped him in the face with its fin, and not to mention that one antic with Orochi's help with a talisman and catnip. He survived but it seems Corrin has found it quite funny and has been smiling for the last several days because of that, especially when Corrin mentioned the crown prince of Nohr suffered the same antics due to him being serious all the time. The idea of Nohr's royalty suffering the same fate brought a smile of amusement on his face as they began walking towards Hoshido's town square plaza.
Said dragon had a content and relaxed expression in his eyes as being a dragon has no facial expression as he felt the warmth of the daylight on his scales, the fresh clean air of cherry blossoms in bloom, and a deep yearning of something he could never have returning. If he had a heart, it would be aching at the moment, but alas, he could never feel that true emotion rise in him while he admired Corrin's beauty. She had braided her hair into pig tails, two peonies in her hair and wore a regal haori over her Nohrian armor while Gangalri was in its sheath at her side.
He has seen her in various Nohrian clothing, but she looked wonderful in Hoshidan clothing as well. If anything were to go by, she does well in any clothing, not that he would tell it to her himself mind him.
Hinata looked at the liveliness of the town and she had that yearning heartache in her. The place reminded her of Konoha's daily life with how people were at stalls, enjoying food and conversing with each other. However, she had this bad feeling, like a dark presence at the back of her mind of something terrible was going to happen as she stared at Corrin's mount. She heard of how Corrin earned its trust when it fell into their castle and had been a loyal companion, help sneaking the lost royal out of their fortress to explore certain cities while everyone else was asleep, etc. She saw how happy Queen Mikoto was when Corrin was telling her of their adventures while Sakura listened with interest of the sights of Nohr while Takumi was downright looking at Corrin with distrust. It was warm to her to see a lone girl wanting to be a bridge to the two kingdoms as she was reconnecting herself to her lost kin.
As they neared the Dawn Dragon statue, Corrin's 'Partner' as she called it froze and sniffed the air before growling dangerously. "Partner...something wrong?" Corrin asked. "...Do you not smell it?" the dragon growled as its eyes darted around as Corrin sniffed the air. "Is that...rainwater? On a sunny day?" she asked, a confused expression on her face. That was when they noticed a dark robed figure reach out, causing Corrin's sword to fly from its sheath into the man's hands, startling citizens and the royals alike as he slammed the blade into the ground.
Turanox acted instantly, standing upright before the family as a barrier of energy appeared from its claws as a shockwave of dark power erupted forward, creating a path of devastation as shards of the sword flew forward and penetrated the barrier and pierced Turanox's scales, causing the Void Dragon to fall as the dark magics of the blade kicked in. "Partner!" Corrin cried out as she dashed to her friend's side while Ryoma drew his Raijinto and charged at the man responsible for assaulting Hoshido.
That was when the shadows moved and Shadow Heartless appeared. Takumi reacted first and fired at one, causing it to dissipate while Hinata summoned her Keyblade and began fighting alongside her teacher. Sakura and Mikoto ran towards Corrin's side and began examining the dragon's wounds and the great beast coughed up globs of blood the color of grey. "Mother..." Sakura spoke as she tried to use her rod on him. "I'm...I'm...I'm not strong enough to stop the bleeding!" she cried out as Turanox forcefully ripped out one of the shards of Gangalri with a snarl. "Foul magics! The Silent Dragon will not take me easily!" he spoke while snarling as he forcefully pulled another shard out. Blood gushing out as Mikoto began attempting to heal the wounds that lacked the shards in them as it worked.
But the three heard the voice of the Void Dragon, of how it spoke of a Silent Dragon attemtping to take his life through the blade's magic. They were startled of it actually speaking as it pulled out another shard. While nobody else was aware of it, Azura and Mikoto had troubled expressions that were not noticed by anyone, nor their thoughts on the matter. Corrin was distraught be the sight, she witnessed Gunter, a man she called a father in all but blood and name fall to his death in the Bottomless Canyon, and her closest friend, the one she had never learned the name of yet almost dying protecting her and her mother from the attack.
She had enough, and something snapped within her. She began stepping forward, scales and claws slowly tearing through her clothes as horns appeared on her head. Her anger had reached its peak as everyone near her took a step back. The dragon blood within her had awoken at long last.

Sasuke sighed as he held his umbrella over the nun whom was reciting a prayer to this unfortunate man that died. That was, if the man was unfortunate. "-Even old Eggman the Destroyer gets scrambled in the end right?" a voice mused as the small portly man who spoke walked up to the two. Sasuke droned the man out as he began his monologue of disrespect for the dead. Well to be honest, Eggman was dead by his hand for trying to make him work for the asshole, so he returned the favor. But why attending said bastard's funeral? Making sure the man stays dead.
That was when light appeared in the sky and a choir was heard and the Uchiha felt his sword hand twitch with anticipation as he saw those monsterous creatures called angels descend. "Not yet," he thought as the 'nun' jumped through a weird sigil of sorts and began smacking them around. While doing so, they made tears in the dress as Sasuke averted his eyes as said woman stripped them and her hair became a full body suit as good ol' Rodin busted out of the coffin.
"Give me a hand kid," Rodin told the Uchiha whom merely began tossing guns towards the woman that was making holes in angels left and right all while Fly Me To the Moon was playing in the background. "She really knows how to put on a performance." Sasuke thought as she swayed on top of tombstones. "As long as there's music, I'll keep on dancing." Bayonetta told them while licking her lips coyly, indulging in the carnage she wrought upon God's messengers.
