Let's continue the story. Thank you Bedtuto jeanisto for the advice, I'll make sure to use it in the future. Also, I have some news, read to the end to find out what it is.
Chapter Cover: Child Bakugo, Izuku, and Cortney standing in front of a TV store watching All Might performing another amazing feat.
Ch.5- The birth of dreams
Well, these two weeks are going to be an adventure in of themselves, it's only been a day since I agreed to be Peace's bodyguard and Amallie must really treat her guards like family because she's in my house drinking a cup of tea with my family while Peace is sat on the couch. She's wearing clothes to go with the spring weather, which includes, a shirt with a character from some tv show and shorts and Amallie is wearing a scarf to cover her scar, a plain T-shirt, and jeans.
I ask Amallie what's going on, based on my mom's and dad's expressions, it's likely isn't good, my sister's expression is a mix of happiness, fear, and confusion.
"Simple honey, I told them about the deal you'd made," Amallie says while not breaking the mood of the room.
"WHAT!?" Is all I manage to yell out as I fail to stamp out a reasonable response to my family.
"Listen, I found it best if your parents knew about this, it's best if I had their consent. Helping us could put more than yourself in danger, I want to cover all our bases." Amallie words are kind, but they create images of the worst kind it nearly brings me to tears and I can't look anyone in the face.
I just try to leave the room, but my sister walks over to me and lifts my face up to hers, and asks one simple question, "Why do you want to be a hero?" The question brings out if you're a true hero or a wannabe, this makes me question whether I'm just following Dekuy's dream or if I'm going to make my own. I'm rescued from the abyss of a question by a familiar laugh on the TV that Peace was watching this whole time. I walk to the TV and point to the very muscular, blonde man smiling on TV.
"I want to be like him, someone who gives hope to people, I want to the fire that ignites hope in everybody's heart and gives everybody the power to fight! That's the reason I want to be a hero!" I shout my answer with every being of my body I can muster while sticking out my fist to the sky. My sister laughs while lifting me up and turning it into a hug. Mother stops her because she notices I'm having trouble breathing and starting to turn purple in the face. My sister complies and I start dry heaving due to the sensation of my sister's bear hug, after forcing my lunch back down, I look to my parents and see their sincere smiles.
My mom is the first to talk after my heroic resolve, "I wasn't so sure about this whole hero ordeal at first, but after hearing your resolve I want to see where this takes us."
"Hahahaha, that little speech made spirit burn with the spirit of All Might himself. I feel like I can take on a hundred villains. I'm in too." My dad barks out much to the annoyance of my mom and she gives him a stern look that instantly drains the spirit from him.
Amallie claps her hand, breaking up the mood, "Well, it seems that everybody on board with this, so it's about time for me to leave, come on Peace." She motions to Peace, Peace gets up and runs over to her mother.
"Wait!" I stop Amallie before she goes out the door, "How did you figure out where I lived?" Amallie laughs at the question and answers back "Simple, I tracked the phone I gave you." We all face-fault at her answer for different reasons.
"Phhahahahah, I'll make sure your training is ready by tomorrow, so be sure to swing by my place at 6, Courtney." She closes the door and I hear her laugh down the hallway.
After that whole incident, I go to my room to undress during which I got a chat request from Pony on my laptop, mom and dad got it so me and Pony could keep in touch with each other. After I got it, I decided to see how similar this Earth is regarding media like Facebook, Twitter, etc., and found that they did exist, but changed so the author doesn't get sued, also during my research I found out what year this show took place in if it's one thing fans know it's how the author never told us what year it is or the date is and how this uses time travel like One Piece. It's 2008 and it's currently Tuesday, August 13, I take note of this to try to prepare for future events.
I accept the video call and see Pony pop up on the screen, only two months have passed since she left, so her appearance hasn't changed a lot, but her horns definitely have changed from the little nubs they once were to something that would make a Billy goat jealous, she's wearing a shirt with a hero I have never heard of due to the angle of her camera I can't see the bottom half of her outfit.
During our first chat, I asked Pony how difficult it is to sit due to her quirk since she has hooves for feet and her knees bend backward, she said she can still sit comfortably in chairs but that she has to wear special removable horseshoes inside or she could have trouble walking, especially in malls. As we chat I get dressed, due to my build I'm forced to wear man-sized shirts since it's cheaper than getting custom clothes, which is currently a white tank top and camo cargo shorts.
I ask her how school is going for her and tell her my situation, she laughs and says "You know, I thought you were a guy when we first met. Uh, Cortney?" On the other side of the call, I went from my normally pale skin tone to a light pink tone, and steam venting from my body. It was at this point I figured out another trait of my quirk, pure anger can straight up activate my quirk, however, this doesn't last long as I hear whining, I look down to my legs and see Chibi looking worryingly at me, I pick him up and calm down.
At this point, I completely forget that I'm talking to Pony until I hear her yelling my name to get my attention again. I look at my laptop again and see her with puffed-out cheeks, extremely annoyed that I just forget her like yesterday's trash, I tell her about the recent discovery trait of my quirk, she asks whose dog I have in my hands.
"Oh, I guess I should introduce you Chibiterasu, (BTW, you pronounce the u in Chibi's name) my pet dog. He found me while I was training with my dad a month ago." I see Pony's mood do a complete one-eighty when she sees Chibi appear on the screen.
"Also look," I say as I lift Chibi up to show off his tail. "He also has a quirk of his own."
"Wow, what is it, what is it?" Pony asks with pure joy in her voice.
"He can use the ink he produces from his tail to affect the world around him," I answer while putting Chibi on my lap.
"Like what?" Pony says, practically flopping around in her chair.
"Um, cutting things and that's about it at the moment. I see a ton of potential in his quirk, we just have to keep training." After telling her about Chibi, I remember what I originally wanted to tell her.
"Hey Pony, let me tell you that's not the only thing to happen when we last talked, but listen before I tell you please don't yell. Okay?" Pony nods her head in response to my request and I tell her what I tell her, what I've gotten myself into. After I finish giving Pony the breakdown of the situation, I can tell from her face, it's a mix of, she wants to call me an idiot, she's probably wondering if she should hang up at this point, and many others, however all she does is look at me and says one thing to me, "If these are the kinda adventures you're going to drag me into, huh?" I give her a thumbs up and a cheesy smile to boot. She doesn't say anything, but her face tells me all I need to know that she made the right friend, we both say bye and hang up.
I close my laptop and notice that Chibi fell asleep on my lap doing our conversation, I wake him up so that I feed him, after filling up his food and water bowl, I go back to my room and take nap.
During my nap, I talk to Thana and the Beast, Thana still has her jacket and hair clip-on, but underneath that she's wearing a white shirt with Pyro Jack and Jack Frost from Persona doing a bad comedy routine and wearing elastic sweatpants. The Beast, however, is wearing nothing but wrappings, like the ones I wear, all over her body and gauntlets and anklets that were reforged from the cage she was locked in. After making the deal with the Beast, I didn't like keeping her in the cage, so I let her out, Thana was concerned so she forged, yes forged, the gauntlets and anklets to work as limiters. Her skin was bright red when I first used my quirk and there was steam constantly coming from her, the limiters turned her skin to the same pale complexion as me, but steam still comes out of her and escapes from her wrappings. I walk over to them, Thana says hi, the Beast says nothing, then again she hasn't said anything since we first met.
I walk over to the Beast and say "I gotta come up with a name for you. Since calling you Beast has gotten annoying to say already." Thana agrees with the idea and says she'll help come up with a name. This ends up taking much longer than either of us expected, after unknown hours, the Beast ends up taking my middle name, Kimberly. I tell both of them goodbye, and leave to wake up from my nap. I wake up to finish up the rest of my day and go to sleep.
The Next Day
After school finishes, I rush home to get dressed for my training. I switch to a plain shirt, spats, a pair of tougher shoes, my gloves, and finally a small bag to hold the diary Pony gave me, my mom made it when I ask her if there was anything I could use to carry it with me. I got it a few days later, mom tells me that it can survive almost anything and that almost no quirk can destroy or affect it, the bag itself is light Brown, has a silver button with an engraving of the company where mom works, and a refillable pen and it still has enough space to hold my gloves too. I put the diary and gloves in the bag and hear the click of two magnets and see the button turn and lock in place. I unlock it as mom told me, I tap the button twice with my finger, then smack the front with my fists, I go to flip the flap to check if it worked, the bag opens and I close it again and wrap it around my waist, then call Chibi over to me, I pick him up and put him in my head and make my way to Peace and Amallie's place.
Turns we live only fifteen minutes away from their place. I make it there early and greeted by the oni woman, that picked up Peace on my first day of school, she's wearing a suit like the other goons however she's not wearing sunglasses like last time, so I can see her eyes now. Her pupils overtake her eyes a little bit more than most and her hair is bright red. I decide to take a closer look and see that she has two horns just above her eyebrows, they definitely look like she can stab someone with them. She looks strong enough to move a car, she's probably pretty high in command based on how everyone is treating her and she has a sake bottle clipped to her belt.
"Hey kid, come on!" When the woman belts that out as she's already walking back in the house, I run after her, she leads me to an outside training ground, where I see Peace trying to wrestle a gun out of a grunt's hand, and a few meters away from her I see Amallie fighting a few grunts with a wooden katana in one hand and a sheath in another. One of the grunts rushes her and throws a punch at Amallie, she blocks it with the sheath then retaliates by swinging her katana down on the grunt's head staggering them. Amallie whines up for an overhead swing with her katana and brings it down, slamming the grunt into the ground with much more force than I expected. Next, two more grunts with katanas in their hands go to attack her. She blocks both of them with just her katana, then, points the bottom end of the sheath to the gut of one of the grunts, their face goes pale before a bang goes off, that grunt almost kneels over but just manages to stay up. Before I can fully understand what happened when I see that the bottom of Amallie's sheath smoking and the side of it is glowing red hot.
"So there's a firing mechanism in the sheath. I need to talk to her about that." I mentally note to myself.
Amallie hops back a little and tucks the sheath away in her kimono before spinning in place very fast, the grunt that got shot earlier goes down instantly, the other one does manage to block her attack for a little bit, however, Amallie starts to change the angle of her attacks. The grunt still manages to block her attacks but this doesn't last for too long, as Amallie does an upward slash, breaking the grunt's guard, leaving them wide open, Amallie stops her hurricane attack and the next thing I see is her resheathing her katana and saying "Finishing Touch" as soon as the katana is sheathed, a large wind like X appears on the grunt's chest causing them to scream in pain and faint.
I stand there completely shocked at the display I just saw.
"Hey Tan, my mom is an awesome swordsman right!?" Peace says suddenly at my side, causing me to jump back since didn't notice her approaching at all.
"Whatthe!? How long have been standing there Peace!?" I say jump back in shock, making me almost fling Chibi off my head.
"Um, I live here." Peace says with sarcasm dripping in her words, "Also I want to ask something."
"Yeah, shoot," I say while taking Chibi off my head and putting him on the floor.
"I notice you usually call people by their first name like an American, where do you get that habit?" Peace's question completely catches me off guard.
"Um, I don't know, I kinda just do it, I might have picked it up from my dad. Hey Peace, I thought your family was quirkless?" I blitz out while trying to change the subject.
"Huh, no me and my dad are quirkless, but mom does have a quirk. Also, why do you have a dog on your head and why did you bring a dog to training?" Peace says as she starts petting Chibi to which he starts to happily bark.
"Oh, I guess you never met Chibiterasu before, huh, well I brought him here for quirk training as well," I say while suddenly feeling a sweat drop forming on the side of my head from the sight currently beholding before me. Peace is currently lost on petting Chibi, who is making and splattering more ink than I've ever seen him make before. I cough into my hand to gain the attention of Peace again.
She stops petting Chibi and can't even look me in the face due to being too embarrassed. I tell her there's no need to be embarrassed before walking away to find a target and Chibi follows me. I spend some time admiring the training grounds, the grounds look like the stereotypical place you'd find samurai training, there are Cherry Blossoms everywhere and equipment racks filled with all sorts of weapons. After finding a good target dummy, I have Chibi practice the Slash technique, the first few times all he does is splatter ink on the target, however, after the fifth time he actually manages to cut the target, it's not too deep but it's getting there. I tell him to keep going before I go off to do my own training.
Yesterday, when Pony made me furious enough to activate my quirk, it made me see if I could find out a way to kick-start my quirk, it took all day, but I found a way to do it by stomping my legs with enough force, I can force my quirk to activate. At the same time, Chibi made some progress too, he's starting to gain control over his quirk. I call it a day and decide to go home, I'll ask Peace what her mother's quirk is later.
The next day, me and Chibi return to do more training, I have Chibi do more training for better control over his quirk. I, however, decide to switch my training to something else, I'm gonna try to make some techniques for myself, I try to go for range attacks first, the thought process being that, I have an almost unstoppable close-quarter power, however, I could be very weak against ranged and elemental attacks.
I try to do something similar to All for One, in terms of the Smash attacks, I throw a punch with all the might I can, nothing the first time, so I try again and again, I do this for 30 minutes, but show no progress, so I change it and stomp my leg to get my quirk to activate and try to do something similar to Dekuy. I quickly figure out, I can't focus all my power in one area yet, however, but I concentrate and put all the power I can into my right arm, I see and feel an immediate difference, unlike All Might's or Dekuy's smashes which blows away everything, my punch is very concentrated it's more like a gunshot and doesn't destroy my body, it isn't a lot right now but it's something I can work with.
After two hours, I feel like I can comfortably give a name to these techniques, I come up with Drive and I decide to name my berserks levels gears, based on one straw hat-wearing boy. Weirdly enough my drive techniques work differently based on which arm I use, my right arm is ranged, my left arm, however, is point blank only, I don't know why this is and I don't plan on understanding how.
Hearing me and Chibi's stomach growl, we return to where Peace and Amallie were training once I see them, Peace is wearing a plain white karate gi and Amallie is wearing her kimono, and they're both eating at a table full of food, I go over to them pray for the food before stuffing my face to which I hear Amallie say "My, you sure were hungry?" I nod my head to her question.
After taking a minute to swallow my food, I fire my own question back at her "Hey Amallie, Peace said you had a quirk what is it?" I see a smirk appear on Amallie's face before she gets up, "My quirk is called Windherder, it allows me to control the air I've heated up."
She then points her hand out in front of a dummy and decimates it, "However, I still can't fully control it. So my sheath has been designed to help me keep my quirk under control if I go all out."
She takes a sip of tea, taking a seat again, asking me, "So Cortney, what have you been doing for your training?" I tell her the techniques I'm currently working on and the name for them, I also add that one more day and I'll be ready for actual combat training.
Amallie smiles and pats Peace on the head "My daughter really did pick someone great to become her bodyguard and her friend." I look at the time on my phone and pack up to leave. The next day I work on refining my techniques.
Today is Friday, August 17, and today is the day I start actual combat training when I walk into the normal training area, I see Peace stretching on a mat with a very serious look on her face, I ask her, "Hey Peace, what's going?"
Her usually cute and bubbly tone is gone and replaced with something similar to her mother, "Alright Cortney today, you and me are going to have a fight!" Peace says with unshakable determination in her voice, seeing no way out I accept her challenge.
Peace leads me into a more forested area with a mat already set up and before the fight begins she says, "I'm not giving up until I beat you, so don't go easy on me." I put on my gloves and say back to Peace, "Wasn't planning on it." As the fight begins Peace tries to sweep my legs but I manage to dodge it.
"So you're going to stop me from using my quirk?" I ask peace as I try to get her in a bear hug.
"Yup." Peace simply answers as she breaks away from my grab and retaliates with a punch to my chest, which somehow doesn't activate my quirk, which Peace quickly answers, "You need to take enough damage in one hit for your quirk to activate, also I know you were planning on not using your techniques on me because I'm quirkless but I want you to go all out on me."
"You're smarter than you put on, you know that right?" I tell Peace while landing a kick in her gut and sending her flying, using the opportunity to kick-start my quirk.
"Hey Peace, what was the cause of this?" I ask her as she gets up.
"I wanted to do this to prove I'm worthy of being the next heir of the Miasma Clan. And to see that I need to be able to beat you." I see Peace's determine smile again as she finishes talking and stands back up.
"Alright then, DODGE THIS!" I yell at Peace as I pluck my finger and fire a massive blast of air and you know the trope of Shonen characters yelling out their attacks well, I just found out it does not just for show because when the attack comes out, I couldn't properly brace myself and end up staggering myself.
Peace, on the other hand, managed to roll under it and punched me in the face, which almost cause me to fall over just because I wasn't expecting it, however, I find my sense of balance at the last second and ram my head full force into her's. Peace manages to recover quickly and tries to throw a punch, which I catch with my right hand and full-on punch her in the gut with my left hand, knocking the wind out of her. While she's trying to catch her breath, I pick her over my head and throw her to the ground, after that, I get on top, her back and put her arms and legs in a grab.
"Hmm, it's over, no way you can escape," I tell Peace who's still struggling, but I feel it get a little bit hotter.
"No, I'm not gonna give up, I can still win, I can still win!" As Peace says this, I see sputters of flames come off her body, seeing what's about to happen I hop off her before her body is suddenly engulfed in flames. I turn around to see what happened, only to get a flame-infused fist to my chest and sent away flying away for some distance away, I brace myself for the landing and land on my feet. I then look to see what just hit me and see Peace, fully engulfed in flames and walking towards me, I can't look at the spectacle happening before me for too long before I notice that my clothes are on fire from where Peace punched me earlier. As I pat the flames out it causing my gloves to melt from the heat, I see Peace closing the distance each step she takes leaves fire trailing behind her. When I finished putting the flames out, my gloves are a mess and Peace is standing in front of me, allowing me to get a close look at her, her pink hair is now ember yellow with flames so bright, I can't look at her without having to squint my eyes.
"Peace, what's going o-" I can't complete the sentence as I'm forced to block another one of Peace's punches, which sends me sliding back a meter and ruin my gloves even further with every blocked attack.
"I have to beat Peace and get us out of here NOW, otherwise we both could die here." I think to myself as I block another one of Peace punches. Peace set the whole area on fire we could definitely die here.
"I only have one shot at this." I say to myself as I hop back and put my left arm in front of me just as Peace throws another punch, "Vanguard!" I shout as I parry Peace's attack.
It seems that parrying that attack extinguishes the flames on Peace's arm, taking a hold of her unlit arm I pluck two of my fingers at Peace's head and "SLAM!"
The attack kills the flames around her head, finally giving me an opportunity I take a page from my sister for this attack, "Snap Out of It," due to the several hits, I took early my quirk went up a few gears, so I had more than enough power to knock Peace out.
As our heads meet, the flames all around Peace die off, however, due to how the fight ended up I have to get us out of here NOW!
Wasting no time, I heft Peace over my shoulder and start to make way for the exit. However, the fire is making things very difficult very quickly, when a branch falls in front of us, I was quick to deal with it by plucking one of my fingers blowing the branch out our way. However, I quickly notice I'm having trouble seeing through the smoke and I can't get enough oxygen, I'm quickly slipping in and out of consciousness and collapse due to the flames in my fading moments of consciousness, I see someone getting me and Peace out of the area, then walking us over to an ambulance, I smile to thank the person as the doors slam shut and allow myself to pass out.
When I come to, I wake up in a hospital bed in a ton of pain. I look at myself and see my body covered in bandages, I then look over to Peace and see a bandage wrapped around her head and it looks like she just woke up.
We're both wearing hospital gowns before either of us can say anything the door peaks open, grabbing our attention, "Oh good, you both are awake now." A male doctor says before walking in, followed by my family and Amallie. He actually looks kinda pretty and probably gets asked out by a lot of nurses and patients.
"Oh sweetie, what happened to you?" My mom says with a fountain of tears coming from her eyes, however, she's stopped in her tracks by chains everyone slowly trails to see where the chains are coming from.
"Sorry about that mam, but I seriously wouldn't do that." The doctor says with chains coming out of his palm, which looks like they're coming out a portal, "Let me show you something." He pulls the chains off my mom and back into his hand.
He then walks over to the x-ray machine and turns it on, "Now the little girl on the left," The doctor points over to me.
"Cortney," I tell the doctor. Let me tell you something, the X-rays of my chest were absolute shit, literally, all my ribs were fractured and a few were broken, I was wondering how I was still alive.
"When Courtney arrived at the hospital, she needed treatment for blunt force trauma and burn wounds. Due to the nature of quirks, she didn't need any surgery for her wounds, so there wasn't too much worried even though she's a little girl. The burn wounds on her arm needed immediate medical attention, however, she had multiple first-degree burns on her hands and chest and a third-degree burn on her left arm." Once the doctor is finished with my diagnosis, he puts away my x-rays and places Peace's up next, however, the x-rays of her feet. As the x-rays come up, the adults all go wide-eyed, while me and Peace are left in the dark at what's going on since the adults are blocking our view.
"How is this possible? I never heard of something like this happening?" After that, anything Amallie said was incomprehensible and she was starting to look Dekuy going into his note-taking mode.
"I believe I have an answer." Everybody snaps their look at the doctor causing him to go into a cold sweat.
"Mmhmm, the x-ray on the left was the one used for her quirk analysis, and the one on the right is current. I can see where the other doctor got his misdiagnosis because, in actuality, the bones in her pinky toe were fusing together at the time. So, she is the first case of delayed quirk activation like this." The doctor starts to scribble some notes on his clipboard. Amallie looks utterly defeated and gives up on trying to fully understand.
"Now the both of them are suffering from extreme exhaustion and concussions, it would be best if both of them stayed here for two weeks so that they can rest and we can run some test." As the doctor says that I try to yell something but my injuries stop me before I can start. Our parents go outside, while my sister walks over to me with a shit-eating grin on her face.
"What!?" I ask my sister but her grin gets even bigger.
"Jeez, sis, are you going to send yourself to the hospital at least once a year?" I give her a "are you kidding me" looks like she hasn't been to the hospital either. She to leave the room, but I stop her before she can.
"Hey, do you know who rescued us? I was fading in and out, so my memory is kinda foggy. Also, how long have we been out for?" I see my sister's face go like she just saw something magical when I ask her.
"No one knows who it was, all we know was that they were wearing a black cloak. That's all we got, and you've only been out for a few hours." I thank my sister for her answer and tell her goodbye before dozing off.
Man, that doctor wasn't kidding when he said we were suffering from extreme exhaustion for me and Peace ended up sleeping for the rest of the day.
After we woke up the next day, we both received messages from our parents saying that we would be staying in the hospital, however, due to the injuries we sustained, we're forced on bed rest for a few days. I decided to spend some time coming up with move names for my attacks. I go for the themes first and work my way from there, "What are you writing there, Cortney?" Peace says that she leans over her bed to get a look at what I'm writing.
"Um, I'm trying to come up with some attack names. I would love to hear any suggestions you have." I tell her as I'm drawing blanks. Now I know mom feels when she's stuck designing
Peace sits up in her bed and goes into deep thought, "How about having certain moves having slammer or shooter at the end of the name depending on which arm you use?" She says suddenly coming out of her thought, I make a note of that in my journal.
"Thanks, that not only is a great idea but gives me some ideas," I tell Peace as I finish writing down her suggestion, at the same time I get a message from mom.
Sweetie your gloves were beyond repair when I got them back. So I'm making new ones and making a lot of improvements, so I'll be coming around to hear any ideas you have.
As I read the message, I look back at what happened to my gloves during my fight against Peace. I show her the message, to which she says sorry. This suddenly brings something to mind, "Wait, Peace you remember the whole event then?" I ask as I thought she was consumed by rage in the fight.
"Um, yes, up until you knocked me out. I'm sorry about the whole event for you." I see Peace almost about to cry as she apologizes to me after everything she did to me.
I unwrap the bandages around my left arm and see a fist-imprint burn scar on it, I grab her shoulder, and show her the scar, "Listen, I'm going to become a hero! A hero throws themselves into danger to keep people safe! So don't cry, I'll fight to keep everyone safe!" Unknowingly, I got up during my speech and without a second thought I gave Peace a hug, which felt like hell due to my fractured Rib Cage but I didn't show it as I wanted to give her complete peace, no pun intended, of mind.
I let her go and go back to my bed while mentally screaming at the pain I'm feeling. I picked up the hospital's phone and dialed for someone to get us food. After we ate, we spent the rest of the day with coming attack names.
After two days, Peace is in stable enough condition to start her quirk examination and I'm now allowed to walk the hospital around without problems. I went to see Peace's examination to see her quirk's power. As the exams started Peace lights herself on fire and I knew this was going to be awesome, the test went on as normal, however, during one test a fire not relating to Peace started to break out, but before the doctors could do anything Peace just eats it.
The doctors are dumbfounded, while I'm on the floor laughing my ass off, "The gods must love me this life!" I roar with laughter while wiping the tears off. I walk over to the intercom system to talk to Peace, "Hey Peace, I have the perfect name for your quirk." To which she turns around to face me, just in time to see Peace burp out a giant fireball
"Yeah, what is i-?" She can barely finish her sentence before she burps out another giant fireball.
I can barely keep a straight face at what's happening in front of me, but I keep under enough control to talk, "Dragon Slayer!"
Writer: Hey Thana, sorry, but I have a lot talk about to talk about so you won't have time for your skit.
Thanatos: (mouth stuffed with chips) -ine.
W: Gezee that woman. Anywhere, sorry about not uploading last week, but I hope the length will make up for it, and the surprise I was talking about earlier.
