A few minutes ago, Cecilia had been sitting at her secret watchtower. Bloodberry was brushing her hair with a motherly smile while Cecilia was thinking about Morganite told her before sending her daughter off to the Pussycats.

Cecilia, no matter how hard and tough the world may seem, just remember. Morganite said gently. You're not alone and you will never be alone. Even if you created Bloodberry out of your loneliness, I will always love you. Because that's what mothers do.

"I know mom worries about me, but why did she tell Luna about this?" Cecilia asked sadly.

"Cecilia, it's like what your mother said: it's what mothers do. She did it for your protection." Bloodberry responded. "If there was one thing in your mother's life that she could trust your power's capability, it's Luna. But she'll probably be afraid that you won't forgive her for her choices."

Cecilia looked down with a frown, knowing that Bloodberry was right all the way.

Then, Cecilia and Bloodberry stood up to look through the window as they saw the mountainside forest burning with a burst of blue flames and strange gas covering the area.

But unbeknownst to Cecilia and Bloodberry, a familiar cloaked figure was standing behind them.

"Everyone!" Mandalay informed telepathically. "Two villains have attacked us and it's entirely possible there are more coming. Unfortunately, some students are in the forest and we can see smoke. I sent a message to them, but with so much going on I haven't heard a reply!"

Suddenly, Bloodberry picked Cecilia up in her arms and jumped away from the window to avoid a glowing purple star-shaped energy sphere from hitting them. The cloaked figure took off the cloak and revealed herself to be Lilith.

"Cecilia, get behind me!" Bloodberry said.

Cecilia obeyed and ran behind Bloodberry, who generated crystalline cords from her hands as combat-like whips with a game-on look on her face.

Lilith smirked wickedly and jumped high up in the air to avoid Bloodberry's crystalline whips that suddenly shot out to strike her. Lilith performed a full split on the ground that allowed her to fire a barrage of purple star-shaped energy spheres at Bloodberry all at once. Bloodberry avoided the attack with swift speed and launched her whips towards Lilith before slamming her around the room multiple times and then released her to be slam hard into the wall.

As Lilith recovered from the attack, Bloodberry wrapped her crystalline whips around herself and began spinning herself rapidly to strike her at high speed. Lilith bounced around the room to evade Bloodberry coming at her. She then sprang above Bloodberry and summoned twenty purple star-shaped energy spheres around her in a vertical circle as she shot them out to hit Bloodberry at rapid speed. Cecilia looked at Bloodberry in horror as Lilith's attack shattered Bloodberry's arms and legs into pieces.

"Bloodberry! No!" Cecilia cried.

"Cecilia…I'm sorry..." Bloodberry apologized faintly.

Then, Bloodberry collapsed unconsciously to the ground in defeat.

"Bloodberry! If you can hear me, grab Cecilia and head back to camp." Mandalay ordered telepathically. "I have no idea where you two are, but just please make it back to the camp fast."

But unfortunately, Cecilia was paralyzed with fear as she was being confronted by Lilith.

"Hiya, little girl." Lilith greeted. "Now, you're gonna come with me. You'll be the bait for my target."

Just as Lilith reached forward and seized Cecilia, a pink circular energy bolt came flying through the window and hit Lilith to the wall away from Cecilia.

Luna landed in front of an unconscious Bloodberry as she stared at Lilith determinedly.

"Luna! You came!" Cecilia said.

"Don't worry, Cecilia. I promise everything's gonna be okay." Luna promised. "Stay with Bloodberry. I can take her on."

"She's right, little girl." Lilith agreed. "You can say we have…unfinished business." She looked at Luna. "The name's Lilith. I'm one of the Shatrix. The other five you already met are my sisters."

"So, I see." Luna said. "What are you doing here?"

"I've gotten an invite from Carina to join my sisters to capture you." Lilith explained. "Besides, you took down Comet and now you mess with me. And trust me, I'm gonna enjoy tearing you apart."

"Tough luck." Luna said as she cracked her knuckles and engulfed her fists in blazing pink energy. "Because I'm not going down without a fight."

"Luna, you can't fight her!" Cecilia shouted with wide eyes. "She took down Bloodberry! She'll kill you too!"

"Just have faith in me, Cecilia. I won't let her win this fight." Luna said as she looked at Cecilia over her shoulder with a reassuring grin. "Besides, villains aren't the only ones who can fight dirty."

Lilith and Luna stared at each other with determination. Then, they charged forward at the exact same time.


Deeper in the forest, Aisha, Selene, and Diana ran back towards base camp. But unfortunately, they came across running into the Shatrix.

"Hello, ladies." Estrella greeted.

Aisha, Selene, and Diana's eyes widened in shock at their presences. Aisha and Selene took notice at the black leather choker necklace with a white glowing star-shaped pendant on the Shatrix's necks, which Rhina noticed their observing expressions.

"Don't let these necklaces fool you. They happen to be Daku's inventions." Rhina explained. "Thanks to his remarkable expertise, the necklaces enhance our Quirks into generating more powerful and versatile energy projections."

"An accessory device to enhance Quirks?" Selene said in surprise.

"Great idea indeed." Aisha said sarcastically.

"Oh please. Do you really think you'll be able to gain the upper hand by creating some upgrading accessories? I don't care what Mandalay said. I hope your chicks are ready for round two!" Diana teased with a wicked grin as she cracked her neck side to side in preparation. "Despite the odds, you girls are gonna need an ambulance by the time this is over."


Lilith made the first move and delivered a quick series of purple star-shaped energy spheres that knocked Luna back a short distance. Luna eventually started to strike back and managed to land some punching and kicking hits on Lilith that she wasn't able to block or dodge. Luna knocked Lilith back a good distance before firing pink energy bolts at her. Lilith blocked the pink energy bolts with amazing agility and reflexes. Lilith then quickly ran in circles around Luna before letting out another energy sphere that slid Luna back a short distance to Cecilia and Bloodberry.

Her Quirk is similar to Celena and the others, but slightly different in a way. Luna thought. Not to mention, that necklace of hers has a glowing jewel. Could that be connected to her powers somehow?

Lilith noticed Luna's prediction written on her face, allowing the villainess herself to smile confidently.

"I see you notice the necklace. The coven's scientist designed it to enhance my Quirk higher and stronger than yours." Lilith said. "But I still have my orders. Defeating you and taking you in to Carina."

Lilith fired three purple star-shaped energy spheres that knocked Luna into the wall.

"My sisters and I did not only come here to retrieve you, but we're here to retrieve your friends." Lilith added. "Also, the League of Villains are also after some boy named Bakugo. Plus, I'll be happy to take the little girl as a mere prize for Carina after this."

Luna became frozen in shock. The League of Villains are coming after Bakugo and the Shatrix are coming after Aisha, Selene, and Diana?! That doesn't make any sense at all!

"I understand your and sisters' objectives on capturing me, but why my friends?" Luna demanded. "And what does Bakugo have anything to do with the League of Villains?"

"That's only for me to know and you to figure that out." Lilith replied with a dark grin.

As Luna stood with a shocked expression, Lilith landed another purple energy sphere attack that hit Luna into the wall again. Luna moved away from the wall and recovered her strength. She started charging a large sphere of pink energy between her hands.

"Starlight Barrage!" Luna yelled.

Luna then fired a rapid barrage of pink energy bolts at high speeds.

But unfortunately, Luna's attack was completely ineffective towards Lilith, who managed to dodge the energy bolts.

"Well, that was sad. You attack every way you can, but you still can't lay a finger on me." Lilith teased. "But the only thing I don't understand is that why are you using your full power of Divine Trinity? What's the matter? Scared that you might lose control again like last time?"

Luna narrowed her eyes in anger. She began firing a continuous stream of pink energy bolts from her hands at Lilith, who then unleashed a rapid barrage of purple energy spheres at Luna. Both attacks then shifted back and forth in a tug-of-war style. But Lilith's energy spheres managed to surge through Luna's energy bolts and made its way towards Luna, hitting her hard all at once.

After the smoke cleared, Luna laid overwhelmingly on the floor. No matter how much power she got, her Quirk isn't enough against Lilith's Quirks thanks to her power-enhancing necklace.

"Heh, what a shame. I was hoping to see more out of you." Lilith said. "When Celena told me everything during her mission at USJ, I was impressed by your strength and power when you fought her and the Nomu. But in the end, you're just too weak. And not only that, you're just too scared to unleash its full potential of the Divine Trinity without losing control again."

As Lilith walked over to finish Luna off, she was knocked back by a sudden barrage of crystals that caught her off balance. Lilith turned her head to the source of the firing crystals and saw Cecilia standing on her feet with her arms aiming at her direction.

Luna lifted her head and quickly wrapped her arms with pink energy aura, projecting triquetra tattoo-like marks on them. She rushed up on her feet and delivered a powerful punch that hit Lilith's face, sending her flying to the wall.

"Luna! Are you okay?" Cecilia said, running quickly to her cousin in worry.

"Yeah, Cecilia. I'm fine." Luna said with a smile. "Thanks for the save."

Luna's smiling words made Cecilia smile in relief.

Lilith stood on her feet from the wall with an unimpressed face that caught Luna and Cecilia's attention.

"Heh, nice trick, but I'm still not impressed." Lilith said. "Not even that punch can hurt me."

"It doesn't matter whether I win or lose, I rather risk my life and turn promises into a hopeful reality than becoming anything like you and your sisters to the side of villainy. That's my duty and my job as a hero!" Luna responded.

All Lilith can do is laugh wildly for Luna's declaration.

"Don't worry, little girl." Lilith said to Cecilia. "You'll get your fun as soon as I finished playing with your hero!"

Lilith and Luna proceed trading blows again. Luna landed a series of rapid punches on Lilith, but the villainess sent Luna back when she thrusted her purple energy sphere hard to her stomach.

As Luna got knocked back next to Cecilia, Lilith let out a wide smile. She readied her Quirk once again. But this time, she started expanding and supercharging her power to its limit via her choker necklace. Luna noticed what Lilith's doing. She quickly carried Cecilia in one arm and ran over to an unconscious Bloodberry. But it was too late for Luna. Lilith pounded her supercharged purple energy sphere to the ground, setting off a large explosion that knocked Luna and Cecilia both down.

I can't…I can't think of a plan of an escape. There's no other way to get Cecilia and Bloodberry back to camp. Luna thought as she was taking heavy breaths. Lilith is just too powerful. I have to find a way to break that necklace off of her because if we run away from Lilith, we'll die. Looks like there's only one choice for me to end this.

"Cecilia, I need you to stay and watch over Bloodberry." Luna said to her godsister. "I'm going to go all out. I'm throwing everything I've got, so I can get you both to safety."

"But Luna, that girl's too powerful." Cecilia said in worry. "You won't survive this fight. I don't want you to die."

"Just have me faith in me, Cecilia." Luna reminded reassuringly. "It's like I said: I rather risk my life for your promising future than back down."

Luna stood in a defensive stance and Lilith cracked her neck with a dark smile as they are ready to resume their battle. Lilith rushed forward to strike at Luna with a rapid series of purple energy spheres, but Luna countered the attack and performed a quick handstand while quickly wrapped her legs with pink energy aura, projecting triquetra tattoo-like marks on them as well.

"Aurora Smash!" Luna cried.

Luna then twirled her upside-down body to attack Lilith forward in rapid speed.

After that attack, Luna gasped quietly and crumpled on the ground, signaling that she's spent too much energy from the power of the Divine Trinity.

Not now. Luna thought. Please not now. But at least, I was able to get a hold on Lilith. I can't let her take me and Cecilia.

Lilith quickly fired powerful barrage of purple energy spheres that didn't give Luna the timing reaction to defend herself.

"What a pity." Lilith said with an unimpressed smile. "Just face it, Luna! You. Can't. Win!"

Luna managed to envelop pink energy around her fists for protection while hanging on for her dear life as she is about to consume by Lilith's Quirk.

No. It can't end like this. I have…I have to keep fighting. Luna thought with gritted teeth. Then, she's beginning to fear the worst of her fate. Mom…dad…Morganite…I'm sorry that I fail you all.

Then suddenly, five cube-shaped crystals began floating around Lilith and converged in on her all at once. The force of the attack sent Lilith flying back, leaving Luna collapse on her knees. Lilith stood back up and saw that the attacker was once again Cecilia.

"You hurt Luna! I will never forgive you!" Cecilia yelled angrily.

Lilith growled angrily at Cecilia before approaching at the little child's direction.

"Little brat, you have no idea what you got yourself into." Lilith warned threateningly.

That unexpectedly distracted Lilith just long enough for Luna to strike a counterattack. Luna sprinted towards Lilith and punched her hard enough to send her flying back into the high wall before falling to the floor.

Cecilia took notice that Luna's trembling hands and legs, hesitating breathing, and clouding vision signaled her limit to keep on fighting.

"Don't give up, Luna!" Cecilia shouted. "You can do it! I know you can! I believe in you!"

Feeling inspired by Cecilia's brave words and actions, Luna instantly charged herself into her full-on Dazzling Trinity. Her speed, strength, and power are now increased greatly. Luna sprinted right in front of a standing-up Lilith. Lilith herself barely had time to react before Luna's fist quickly connected with her stomach, sending a rapid barrage of pink energized punches while Lilith was countered back towards the wall.

Luna stopped punching and backflipped a few feet away from Lilith, who was struggling to move from the wall while catching breaths.

Lilith then touched her neck and gasped in fright once she realized the choker necklace was wrenched out of her neck. Luna lifted her raised fist and opened to reveal nothing but a few fragments of white jewel stone. She had single-handedly destroyed the device that fulfilled Lilith's wild dream of enhanced power.

"You're finished." Luna said boldly.

Luna lifted her right arm high in the air and concentrated her Quirk through her fist.

"Helios Smash!" Luna cried.

Luna pounded her fist to the ground, sending pillars of pink energy to erupt under the screaming Lilith.

Lilith was still on her feet after taking the ferocity of Luna's new attack. Not for long, she collapsed to the floor with a weary groan.

At last, Luna have finally defeated Lilith.

Luna collapsed on her knees again, focusing on catching her breath into her lungs.

Taken back by Luna's actions, Cecilia ran over and wrapped her arms around Luna into a warm, tight hug.

"Luna, you did it! I…I thought you were going to die!" Cecilia cried as she was crying her face onto Luna's chest. "I was so worried that you weren't gonna make it because…because…"

"Cecilia, it's alright." Luna said. She placed one hand on the back of Cecilia's head. "It's alright. I'm still alive and you're safe. That's all what matters."

"Luna, you…are my hero." Cecilia smiled.

With that, Cecilia hugged Luna harder.


Review and Enjoy.
