~Multiple Thinking~
Multiple Talking
Forest: 4:15 pm
Juan was nervous. This was the first time he is giving his semblance to someone he hadn't personally meet yet. Sure, he had only given it to Velvet, but that's beside the point. The repercussions can possibly be enormous, even disastrous. For all he knew, somewhere down the line he was going to create the strongest villain in Remnant's history. Sure, he knew that Team CVFY was trust worthy. It's just that not every stranger will be trustworthy. At least the requirements to remix were extremely harsh.
1) The person must be in good standings with Juan, 2) the person must receive physical contact from Juan before able to activated 3), and the person must be open to the changes.
-Hey you there Vox?-(Juan)
-Yeah, what up?-(Vox)
-Do you think they will be able to get their Remix?-(Juan)
-I mean, why not? Being Velvet's brother should give you some positive standing with her Team. Plus, if they don't trust you because you're a stranger, they will trust you because Velvet trusts you.-(Vox)
Vox was right. Plus, they were side characters who never did something wrong on the show. They wouldn't let Velvet down.
Just then, Juan heard voices in the distance.
-Velvet, how are we supposed to find the midget in the forest? You know the forest gets barely any Scroll signal.-(Coco)
I got a tick mark on my head. When was fifteen, I was somewhat tall on Earth, standing at 5'8, but in Remnant, I was really short at 5'4". At least I was taller than Ruby. She's just 5'2".
Now, how do I super charge their semblance?
Actually, in the show, they never did say what Team CVFY semblance was. Nobody used it except for Velvet. Did they even have it? I do know of some Huntsmen who never even use their semblance, but that was very rare.
Meh, I'll figure it out when I give them their second one.
-Vox, you might as well remove my pacer. - (Juan)
- How many will you need?-(Vox)
-Just one. They will need to get used to their new semblances before they can even use it in a fight.
-Pacer ready to release!-(Vox)
~Aura Overdrive~
Soreness appeared in all of my body, especially in my veins. This is going to hurt like a mother lover in the morning. (What, you thought I was going to cuss? I have an Angel in my head. He always gives me headaches when I cuss.) Too much aura was passing through my yet immature body. It felt like moving after exercising without stretching afterwards. Not too unbearable, but still disliked.
Why does this happen? Well, it's actually quite simple. The way my semblance worked was a little like a battery. Throughout the day, when my aura was at max, I would unconsciously store part of my Aura into Vox, so he can act as a sort of battery, while my body started to restore the chunk that suddenly went missing. He would then accumulate that taken aura, which would become a sort of pacer. This pacer can also let Vox take control of my body for a small time by using my Aura as a sort of control remote. Anyway, the pacer would then help generate another, and another, until I have ten pacers in total. Each pacer would be enough to power up one person, and would be one of my charges. However; this does come with a downside.
Due to the massive amount of Aura passing thru me, my body would start to strain under the stress of keeping it all in me. This was also the reason I don't power up more than one pacer at a time. My body cannot handle it. I could in theory give up one pacer to Vox so he could heal my body as I share, but the pain would be horrendous, and the next day would be worse. This is why I will only awaken Team CVFY, and not train them on their first day. I do have work tonight, and I don't think people will like a Dj that can't even jump with the crowd.
-Hey, I found the midget! - (Coco)
-Oy! I'm not a midget, I'm fun sized! - (Juan)
-30th quote that Juan always wanted to say has been checked off the list. - (Vox)
-Shut up. - (Juan)
Coco's POV 4:00 Pm
Today was boring.
Team CVFY had just finished their evening team tactics, and was starting to do their homework. Well, everyone except for Velvet. She had finished hers on Friday afternoon. Who even does that? Well, more power to her, I guess. Maybe I should ask her for help. She is my adorable little partner after all. Let's just see what she is doing…
Velvet was nervously looking at her Scroll. She was sitting on her bed, right leg thumping on the ground, and looking at her Scroll with an indecisive look.
Huh, I can't believe it, she has a crush.
In retrospect, it was obvious Velvet was going to be a heartbreaker. With her shy nature and huge brown round eyes, she was just asking cupid to "eliminate without discrimination". What I didn't expect was for her to have the crush. Maybe some Knight in shining armor (random dude) sweeps her off her feet by saving her from a wild beast (Bully). Or maybe it was Roguish fiend (another random dude) who stole her heart away from her (Did something nice for her).
-So, who is the lucky guy? - (Coco)
-Huh? - (Velvet)
-Who's your crush? - (Coco)
She got flustered all over.
-I, I have no idea of what you're talking about! - (Velvet)
She gave it away!
-Are you going to text a boy? - (Coco)
-Uh, I mean, yeah? - (Velvet)
-Is he cute? - (Coco)
-Kind of, yeah? - (Velvet)
-So does that mean he is of interest? - (Coco)
-Yes? - (Velvet)
-So you like him? - (Coco)
-Yes. - (Velvet)
-Putting all of these clues together, that means you have a crush on him. - (Coco)
Velvet just giggled.
-That's just silly, he's my Brother! - (Velvet)
The world stopped around Velvet. Both boys stood still with their wide eyes. I was frozen in place with a smile in my face that was slowly cracking.
~She has a crush on her Brother! ~
(Yes dear readers, everyone has misunderstood the situation. Hooray for anime troupes!)
Velvet was still oblivious to the world in her giggles.
-Ah, really?-(Coco)
Yep, did not see that coming.
-Yes, Really! He is with the first years in Beacon right now actually. I was actually trying to figure out if I should let him meet you guy's right now or wait until he is more rested. - (Velvet)
Fox spoke up, visibly confused.
-Wait, I thought he was only fifteen?-(Fox)
-Yes he is! He was supposed to wait two more years, but he caught the attention of the headmaster himself when he stopped a robbery close to Signal academy. - (Velvet)
-Ah, so he skipped a few grades and started coming to Beacon on behest of the Headmaster. It was very fortunate of him to be rewarded so soon and have no negative repercussion whatsoever. - (Yatsuhashi)
-Hehe, he actually was just helping his friend clear the mob. Anyway, He still got in, and I'm thankful for it. - (Velvet)
Velvet looked down to her scroll, and finally decided.
-I'm going to make the call. Excuse me. - (Velvet)
She then left the room.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
Me, Yatsu, and Fox all crowded the door. We could barely here what was being said outside.
-He-llo.-(Juan)
-Juan, do you have a moment? I need your help with training. - (Velvet)
-I don't know Velvet; I won't be a good sparring partner thanks to Yang.-(Velvet)
-I won't be sparring, I just need stress relief. A little practice with my overcharged semblance wouldn't hurt, right? - (Velvet)
-I guess I just can't say no to my sister. Where do we meet? - (Juan)
-In the Forest of initiation.-(Velvet)
-You do know that place is off limits for a first year's right? - (Juan)
-But only for the first half! Plus, my whole team of second years is going to be there. There's nothing to worry about! - (Velvet)
There was a pause.
-Are you positive your team can be trusted? If they get a power up in the form of a Remix, they will be our responsibility. Anything terrible they do with their powers will be over our heads. After hearing this, do you still want them to be powered up? - (Juan)
-Y-yes. They have my full trust.-(Velvet)
-I'll meet you there. - (Juan)
We quickly went back to our original positions.
-Guys, he said he is willing to help up! - (Velvet)
Yatsuhashi looked confused
-Velvet, I do not want to insult, but how can he help with our training? We are second years, and although it might sound prideful, I believe we all have more knowledge and experience than him in actual fights. - (Yatsuhashi)
-I don't mean help in fighting technique. I mean in Aura. He can help us get stronger, I can guarantee it. - (Velvet)
Velvet looked so determined. Even though I am doubtful, as is Fox and Yatsuhashi, at least I can give her the benefit of the doubt.
-Might as well, it's not like we have something better to do. Team CVFY, move out! - (Coco)
She slowly turned to Velvet.
-How does he even look like? - (Velvet)
Velvet showed us a picture of him when Velvet last visited her family last summer.
-Omg he's a midget! - (Coco)
Back to the Forest 4:15 Pm
There was a silence.
-Well then, Mr. fun-sized, how fun can you be? - (Coco)
There's an awkward silence.
Coco, can you not read the situation! It's supposed to be awkward, not flirty! Look around! I sure everyone is not supposed to look constipated!
-At least Velvet looks different. - (Vox)
Velvet just looked horrified.
-Vox, I need a comeback! Quick, think of something! - (Juan)
-Got it, just repeat after me! - (Vox)
-Well, if you want fun, go to the club Three Bears. I can show you a real good time there. - (Juan)
There was a longer silence. Even Coco felt the awkwardness now.
-You are USELESS!- (Juan)
-I don't know why that didn't work! The anime troupes usually work in this situation! - (Vox)
-THIS IS REAL LIFE YOU DAFT IDIOT! HOW THE GRIMM WILL THAT HELP IN REAL LIFE!- (Juan)
Just because I can't use bad words doesn't mean I can't insult. Not being to cuss makes your insults that more imaginative.
-Well EXCUSE ME FOR HAVING AN ACTUAL RESPONSE! - (Vox)
-THAT RESPONSE WAS TERRIBLE! YOU'RE AN ANGEL FOR GRIMM'S SAKE! AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE ALL-KNOWING!?- (Juan)
-THAT'S GOD YOU UN-BIBLED CHILD! - (Vox)
-IM MENTALY 30 YEARS OLD! - (Juan)
-AND YET YOUR ONLY 5'4"! - (Vox)
-LEAVE MY SIZE OUT OF THIS! - (Juan)
Meanwhile …
-So, uh, team, this is my brother Juan. Juan, this is Coco, Fox, and Yatsuhashi.-
(Velvet)
No response from Juan.
-Juan, did you hear me?-(Velvet)
Velvet snapped her fingers in front of Juan to snap him out his "trance".
-Yeah, no girlfriend until im 20. - (Juan)
Velvet was confused.
-That's…not what I said. - (Velvet)
- Go to sleep by 9? - (Juan)
-No. - (Velvet)
- People are beautiful for what's inside? - (Juan)
-Not even close. - (Velvet)
Juan just fisted his open palm.
-Ah, you mean "No, Juan, it's not what it looks like!" right? - (Juan)
Velvet started blushing.
-That was only once! - (Velvet)
Now that Juan looked around, he saw everyone was blushing.
- Well, enough about that. Now, I understand my sister told you guys about the situation, right? - (Juan)
Everyone nodded.
-Receiving this chance means that Velvet has placed her trust on you. Pray you never displace it. Now, to receive this help, you must have three things; Contact, faith, and my blessing. Two of the three are easily obtainable. It is up to you to take the last leap and have faith in me. - (Juan)
While everyone was steeling themselves, Yatsuhashi stepped forward.
-Going by my sister's description, you must be Yatsuhashi. – (Juan)
He knelt down to Juan's 5'4" height and looked at him in the eye.
-I may not know you personally, but I trust in Velvet, so I will trust in you. – (Yatsuhashi)
-So straightforward. - (Juan)
Juan placed his hand on his shoulder.
-Hope for the best. - (Juan)
Yatsuhashi was suddenly covered in in a bright green glow. Cracks started to appear in the thin air behind him, also glowing green. The ground was impacted by a crater of 10' feet diameter around Yatsuhashi. He opened his now emerald eyes and looked around.
Juan fell to the ground.
-I think I know what you soul is saying. A man's actions weigh more than the promises he makes. But for you, it's the opposite. As a man of few words, any word you say has tremendous weight. You semblance would be gravity increase, yet your chivalry does not let you escape your own power. This explains your strong body. But now, with the boost, you actions have so much weight they crack reality. And your body has now adapted to be able to resist that weight. - (Juan)
-It seems Yatsuhashi has gotten the Quake-quake fruit from one piece. I wouldn't be surprised if he would be able to go head to head against Velvet. - (Vox)
-Naw, when Velvet learns her semblance's last perk, she will be way stronger. - (Juan)
-I would recommend you rest for now. Opening your Aura so expansively will hurt you if you don't take it easy for a couple of hours. - (Juan)
Yatsuhashi only nodded. Just as Juan stood up and turned around, Yatsuhashi spoke.
-Yatsu. Only friends and trusted allies can use it. - (Yatsu)
Juan nodded.
-Very well, Yatsu. – (Juan)
Juan turned to Fox. He seemed really eager to try his luck in the boost.
-Would you like to go next? - (Juan)
Fox just nodded. Getting him to open up is going to be hard.
Juan placed a hand on Fox's shoulder, and began to open up his pathways.
-Hope for the best. - (Juan)
Fox at first was confused when nothing happed for five seconds, but was shocked when his aura manifested around his eyes. He closed his eyes because it was getting too bright for him to see…
To …bright…?
-I can see…everything…- (Fox)
Contrary to popular belief, Fox was not blind. He was in fact very healthy in his vision. However, his semblance let him see far away, at the cost of color. The farther away the object was, the less color it would have, and less details could be distinguished. However, with remix, Juan could not help be reminded of the Hyuuga clan from Naruto. Because of this, Fox's already great vision got boosted to the max. He was able to not only see far away and in detail, he was able to see through solid objects themselves. He could see heart beats, lungs breathe, muscle tense and relax, but most of all, people's weaknesses. He saw a small crack in Yatsu's armor on his left pectoral, most likely caused by his gravity increase. He was able to see that Coco's gears in her purse were not cleaned correctly, so there would be a slight delay in opening to full Gatling mode.
Fox was able to see and comprehend these things without a headache or a need to focus. He was able to see everything in almost a 360 degree view not only of himself but also of the objects in his sight. If he were, for example, see a tree in front of him, he would be able to see as if he was the tree, and the tree had his eyes. This could potentially extend his range, but at the cost of leaving his surroundings unviewed if too far away.
-My vision, it's almost godlike perfect. - (Fox)
-The Byakugan from Naruto? I thought he wasn't blind? - (Juan)
-His semblance let him see far away, however, that took the color and detail away. Now, he doesn't have those problems anymore. It also seems that his remix is the least aura consuming. - (Vox)
-Well fox, you're all set. Next is Coco. - (Juan)
Fox didn't respond as he was busy looking at his hands. Now that Juan thought about it, he looked a little high with all the focus he was placing in everyday objects.
When Juan turned around to look at Coco, she was busy getting herself hyped up. Unlike the others, her semblance hadn't even awaked yet. So for her to jump over her regular semblance and go straight for the remix version, she would get at least a clue to what it was.
Juan walked up to her and held her shoulder.
-Are you ready? - (Juan)
-Ready! - (Coco)
Juan started to release aura into Coco. Like Fox, she didn't notice anything at first. She didn't see the ground crack, nor everything in a differ color. She only glowed.
She was disappointed. She had finally had her expectations of using her semblance after not being able to unlock it for 6 and-a-half years. She had even convinced herself it was useless, and trained to enter beacon without it. Part of her fashion sense was because she didn't what to embarrass herself any further! Tears started to form in the corner of her eyes. She was done with this sh…
Now dear readers, the reason Coco didn't finish her sentence was not because of censorship, but because she became so frustrated, she punched a tree. Now normally, she would have still finished the cuss, except the tree went flying. Into Yatsuhashi, but that was beside the point. While strong, she was never this strong period.
With the punch, her beret had fallen down. When she went to pick it up, she noticed green floating text.
~Coco's Beret
Made especially for her, this beret was made as a symbol
That huntress don't need semblances, and that you
Can always fight in style!
+20 STR
+30 SPD
+50 DEF
+10 CHAR

-Juan? - (Velvet)
-Yes Velvet? - (Juan)
-She unrooted a tree. - (Velvet)
Juan looked at Yatsuhashi pushing the tree off of him.
-Yep. - (Juan)
-Im a video game character. - (Coco)
-Not quite. She only has the equipment aspect. - (Vox)
-So, she gets stats, or the one size fits all?-
-Both. Clothes give her increase stats to her body, and she now has an inventory. Any clothes that go into her 10 slot inventory will be cleaned, resized and in ideal temperature to her liking. She even has the ability to have aura regeneration as a stat. Get enough of those, she could activate it by herself without your help! Good luck explaining this dream perks to a fashionista! - (Vox)
-Coco, I think I know what your semblance is!-(Juan)
10 minute explanation later
After explaining to Coco all the perks to her remix, her eyes got glassy, her cheeks rose color, and her glasses were a skewed. Her hands were fidgeting, and her legs kept rubbing together.
-Hey Juan, are you in a relationship? - (Coco)
-Um, almost there, but not quite. Why? - (Juan)
-No reason. - (Coco)
With little warning whatsoever, she turned around and French kissed Velvet. Velvet, poor innocent Velvet, was taken severely off guard, and thus pushed into a tree to an intense make-out session.
None of the guys went to stop it.
