Hey, it's been years since i've written anything, i hope i haven't lost what little skill i had at it.

Anyway, i've been playing Gravity Rush lately and i couldn't keep this idea out of my head, so i decided to give it a go and try to write something.

This story will take place in the MHA universe, but it will draw Gravity Rush characters and events.

Chapter 1: lost cat

"There was another way " was the first thing she thought before opening her eyes, but what did it even mean?

no matter how hard she tried to remember, only brief flashes and muttered words came to her though one thing kept coming in those brief images in her head.

A̵̯̖͕͈̫̰̮̓͆̽̑͗l̵̨̢͓͚̭̼̒̉͐̍͋ū̴̬͔̗̳̲̤̲͇̋͒̿̀ã̵͖͓̼͙̞̳̤̤̓͋̈́

Was that her name? Alua? at least that's what it sounded like to her.

she didn't know why but the name brought feelings of sadness, why would her own name bring those feelings? it almost felt wrong to use that name but without anything else coming back to her, going by "Alua" for now might be for the best, maybe someone around her could help her to remember how she got here, maybe even know her and help her understand what was going on.

speaking of... where is everyone?

She had spent the last few minutes trying to remember anything and she had completely ignored her suroundings, was she in a... playground?

most importantly why was it devoid of any other person?

she kept looking around, maybe she could find someone in the distance or find a way out of this place, she was so distracted that she didn't notice a small cat by her side this whole time until a small, barely audible "meow" startled her out of her thoughts.

huh? what are you doing here? are you lost too? well i don't have anything to give you, so run along and find somewhere else to beg.

said the girl as she looked at the cat... if It was even a cat, his... skin? was completely black, but all across his body she could see small dots that looked a lot like stars.

unfortunately she had told him the truth, she didn't have anything to give to the strange cat so she started to walk away from it, hopefully towards somewhere with people in it but she quickly noticed the cat had started to follow her.

...ok, ok! you can come along, maybe we'll find someone who can help you too.

"purrrrrrrr" was the only response she got.

they kept walking for a minute in complete silence, walking out of the playground and into an area with a lot of small buildings until something happened that startled them both.

HELP!!!! YOU, GIRL!!! HELP ME!!!!! an old woman came running out of nowhere and gripped both of "Alua's" arms with all her strenght, her body shaking and eyes on the brink of tears.

Please help me!!!! it's my grandson! he's in danger!!!! you're a hero right??? you HAVE to help me!

your grandson? wha-AAAH "Alua" had started to ask some questions but was interupted as the woman started pulling her towards the next street.

there are some police officers already there, but you might be the first hero to get here, saw you fly down nearby and went to get you, i really hope you've got a quirk than can help!

The woman spoke at such a speed that "Alua" was having trouble understanding what was said, and what she understood was quickly eclipsed by even more confusion.

"Hero?" "Fly down?" "Quirk?" what was that old woman even talking about? was she able to fly before she lost her memory? was she a "hero"? whatever that meant?

her thoughts were interrupted the moment they turned to the right in a corner.

right there, in the middle of the street and just a few meters above the ground was a... red and black... thing swirling and pulling everything around it towards it's centre, even from the other end of the street "Alua" could feel herself being pulled towards it.

"Alua" took a brief second to look around the strange "thing" in the air and took notice of a few things, a few people were in the area, however they were being held back by a couple of men in blue clothes, they looked tired, if this kept going they would all be pulled towards the swirling thing in the air, and most important of all, a small child, no older than 8 was just a couple of steps away from that thing, holding for dear life to a lamppost, while screaming for someone to help him.

You have to help him, please! spoke the old woman, now with tears falling freely from her eyes.

"Alua" didn't know what to do, but before she could voice those thoughts a very loud scream cought her attention.

it was the kid, he hadn't been able to hold on anymore and was being pulled towards the air.

in that moment "Alua" stopped noticing the world around her, she didn't hear the people nearby gasp in surprise, nor did she hear the scream of terror from the old woman, just like she didn't notice the strange cat that had been following her since she woke up vanish into a thin black smoke, nor did she notice her skin starting to glow a bright red while her body started to float above the ground.

all she knew is that one moment she was next to the old woman, and a moment later she was holding a kid in her arms pulling him back to the ground and towards the men in blue clothes.

the pull was a lot stronger here, while she did reach the child in an instant going back to the ground was proving itself to be far more difficult.

She was getting tired very quickly, she couldn't keep this up for much longer, however and without a moments notice one of the men in blue clothes took a step forward, his left hand being grabbed by another one of the men there, while his right hand was extended towards her.

TAKE MY HAND!!! WE'LL PULL YOU DOWN!!!!! screamed the man, and she quickly made sure to get a good hold on the kid, before reaching out to the extended hand.

after a fraction of a second that felt like a lifetime to her, she managed to grab on to the man's hand and both she AND the kid she was holding were pulled towards the ground.

once her feet were on the ground the pull she felt towards the thing in the sky became a lot weaker, she still felt it and it was clear the people around her felt it too, but it seemed it became stronger the closer you got it.

the men in blue took the child from her arms and gave him a quick check before pushing him back, after just a moment of looking around the kid found his grandmother and ran to her as fast as he could, tears in his eyes, clearly the experience had terrified him, but luckily he was unharmed, the people around them cheered and clapped in relief.

it was just then that "Alua" had finally started to notice what had happened to her, her skin still glowing a bright red, however that glow vanished after a few seconds and something even stranger happened.

for a brief instant after she stopped glowing a mist of sorts appeared in front of her and after just a second it took the form of the small black cat she had met at the playground.

did... did you do that? asked the girl, she had been able to fly to catch the kid, was this strange cat the one who made that happen?

her thoughts were interrupted when she noticed people were once again looking at the sky with worried eyes, turning around she saw the thing in the sky grow smaller, the pull she had felt all this time becoming weaker and weaker until it finally disappeared, along with that thing causing all of this.

it took just a moment but after that thing disapeared everyone around her, from the men in blue to the other people in the area left out a sigh of relief.

it seemed everything was looking up, but many questions remained in her head, what was that thing? why did it suddenly disappear? how did she fly? and was that strange cat somehow conected to her?

She was really tired after all that had just happened, so she decided to sit on the ground while the people around her kept moving, the little cat that had followed her all along sitting beside her while she scratched his head.

The men in blue had started to gather the people around them, making sure no one was hurt, all the while saying things along the line of "everything's all right now" and "the heroes are on their way"

she still couldn't understand what that meant, but everyone seemed a little happier after hearing that so she guessed it was a good thing.

"Hey, are you all right" said a voice beside her and she looked up to it's source, it was one of the men in blue, the same one that had pulled her down, she hadn't paid much attention to him before, but he stood amongst the crowd with his white hair and yellow eyes, he almost seemed... familiar, did she knew him, before she woke up without memories?

oh, yeah, im fine... hey, sorry to ask you these but, have we met before?

emmm, i think not, why? he asked her

i woke up not to long ago in a playground, but i can't remember anything before that.

what like, nothing at all?

well, kinda? i remember someone saying "Alua" or something that sounded like that to me, i think it might be my name, or someone i knew at least, but i really can't remember anything else.

oh wow, that's weird, kind of like a good mystery novel, anyway, my name is Syd, it's nice to meet you, hey i've got an idea if you're not sure if that's your real name why don't you use a nickn-

miss, i'm afraid you'll have to come with us, a voice interrupted their conversation making both Syd and "Alua" to turn their heads towards the onde who had spoken.

it was another man dressed in blue clothes, this one older than Syd, and with a sour expression on his face.

while we thank you for saving that kid's life you still used your quirk without a license, you'll have to come with us to the station.

what? but i didn't do anything, i was just trying to help, saide"Alua" as she got on her feet, the cat beside her doing the same.

i'm afraid that's how this is, please, come with us and do not resist, you'll only get yourself in more trouble.

trouble? she only wanted to help, not this, and in a moment of panic she did the only thing she could think of.

she ran, like her life depended on it, the small cat by her side.

HEY, COME BACK HERE!!!!!

She looked around to see the old man trying to run after her for a second, before Syd got in his way.

"sir, i think there's a misuner--"

she didn't stop to hear what he would say, she kept running.

And she ran for hours, everytime she would see someone in blue clothes she would run even faster in the opposite direction, the small cat never left her side, and at long last both of them turned in a corner and into an alley.

they hadn't seen anyone in blue for a while, and it was clear neither of them could keep running.

I think we're safe for now, said the girl looking at the cat while wiping some sweat from her forehead with her hand.

"Mreoooow" was the response she got, it sounded to her like a strange combination of frustration and relief.

hey, i don't know about you, but i really need a place to rest, do you know any place where we could stay?

"meow"

i'll take that as a no, hey, do you have a name?

"meow"

no? then how about a give you one? would you like that?

"Purrrrr"

hmmmm, let's see how about... Dusty!

"Pfttttttt"

What? you don't like it? i think it's a good name, im gonna keep calling you that from now on!

she could see the newly named "Dusty" giving her a look of mild annoyance, but she could also see a small hint of fondness in his eyes.

Well Dusty, my name is Alua... i think, i know we met today and there are still many things i don't understand but, would you stay with me? that way neither of us has to be alone.

"Purrrrrrrr" was Dusty's response, and she understood what it meant.

Thank you, she said as she extended her hand to pat his head.

Now then how about we find a place to rest?

"Meow"

Oh we also need food

"Purrrrrrrrr"

And so girl and cat started to make their way out that alley intent on finding a place to rest, to bad they were to worried about not being spotted by the people in blue that they didn't notice a hole in the ground right in front of them

AAAAAAAAAAH, screamed Alua after falling trough the ground, Dusty at her side.

they both rolled many times before falling face first into a solid surface.

ugh, well we're up to a good start.

"Mreooooow"

Alua was back on her feet when she stopped to look around her, this place looked old, very old, and abandoned on top of that.

whatever this place was it hadn't been used in a very long time, it was big, and had a lot of giant looking pipelines all around it, most were so big that she could walk in them with plenty of place to spare.

she started to look around, until she found something that got her attention, one of the pipelines was covered with wood, but she could see light on the other side of it.

she got close to it and started kicking the wood until it fell of completely, when she did the light blinded her for a moment, forcing her to cover her eyes, when she finally opened her eyes she gasped in surprise at the sight.

it was the ocean!!!! it was beautiful, and to add yo that the area around her was completely covered in many, many things!

Dusty? i think we have a place to stay now!

and look so many things around us!!! whatever we need we can get it from here!! now we only need food!!!!

"Purrrrrrrr" was Dusty's response, and she could see he looked happy to have a home as well.

Alua turned around towards the pipelines, this would require work, lots of it really, but she had made her choice she would turn this place into their new home.

Things are starting to look up!

In the game Kat sees no problem in living on a giant pipeline under hekseville so i decided to have her do the same here, but this new world won't take kindly to a child living in a sewer, this will cause her trouble down the line

as for the whole " Alua" thing, i decided to let her keep that name, my reasons for that will be explained later, but don't worry, she'll get her "Kat" name soon enough.

if you played Gravity Rush then you might have noticed that this chapter is very similar to the start of the first game, that was on porpouse, however Kat's story will soon start to change.

i am sorry for any errors in my writting, English is not my first language, if you spot anything wrong please let me know and i'll do my best to fix it.

if you made it this far, thank you.

i'll try my best to update soon but i won't make any promises, the inspiration is there but i don't always have the time, i am also trying yo get used to writting again.

thank you once again and i'll see you all soon.

good luck!!!
