"This is Topaz, I'm either on a mission or in a meeting at the moment. Leave a message and I'll get to you as fast as I can!"Alice sighs, placing the phone down as she stares at the ocean.

"Still no change?" She turns her head to Melody and shakes her head. The cat sighs, crossing her arms, "Hopefully she'll be done with whatever she's doing right now quickly. I still can't get in contact with Thaila, Aunt Nicole or anyone in the resistance," she sighs as she sits down on a tire, crossing her legs, "I knew we were having problems with getting supplies from Yurashia, but I didn't expect they been blocking the signal from the islands,"

Alice hums pulling the hood of her cloak over her tighter, "Mother has been theorizing that might have been the case. The supplies that they've been sending have been few and vary," Alice shakes her head. She knew that some people in the Continents believe that Eggman would only focus on the Islands, leaving the Continents alone. Many seem to forget that he had blown up the moon, released Chaos when the God was still angry, and had blown up Mobius to release Dark Gaia… Eggman thirst for power, to prove that he was smart. It was why he joined up with Commander Towers when the Overlander had declared war on all Mobians. The old leader of G.U.N had given him recognition, something no one had done…

"And because of Towers, the world has to deal with a mad man who wants to show his brilliance right after the Great War which might even turn into another Great War…" her large bat ears twitch and Alice quickly stand up and turns, gasping at the sight of Ethan with the young hedgehog in his arms and the fennec beside him.

"Ethan!" Melody sits up going over to them, her blue eyes filled with concern, "you found them…what's wrong?"

"I don't know," Ethan whispers his ears pinned, "some stupid ungrateful brat got caught up in a villain attack and none of the heroes were doing anything so the kid decided to do something herself. She was fine a bit ago," none of them notice Kitt rummaging through the heaps of trash, pulling out a screwdriver, "but her vitals are pretty low…"

"Here you go ma'am," the three looked down to see Kitt holding up a pair of wires. Izumi blinking drowsy grabs them and to their shock bites down on them hard. Sparks dance along her fangs as the three watches with wide eyes as Izumi seems to perk right up.

"Oh by the Ancients these two are going to be gremlins, aren't they?" Ethan said with a smile as Izumi stood up, "Also Uncle Tails is going to love him, you," Kitt hisses a bit when Ethan pointed at him before Izumi ruffles his hair. Ethan snorts before looking at Melody and Alice, "Anything? Anything at all?"

"Nothing,"

Ethan sighs at this scratching at the back of his neck, "Damn it what are we going to do now? We need to contact the Resistance, not only to tell them that we are alright and alive...but the fact is if we were sent by Chaos Control, that means Eggman is as well. And I don't doubt he's going to be focus on trying to get back to the islands when he almost has 99% control over them when he can start his campaign of world domination here,"

"Very true," Melody sighs, "We will also need a place to stay," she turns to Alice, "Can you see if you can contact Top-" she stops when a grunt was heard and she pulls out her sword, Alice pulling her cloak up while Ethan stood in front of Izumi and Kitt.

They all stared at the blue and yellow scaled dragon that rubs his head as he walks out from behind a pile of trash. Alice shoulder's untense, recognizing the figure, "Toshinori, its you," she smiles at him, "It seems you have gotten better during the ye-"

Alice sighs in disbelief when smoke covers the number one Hero of Yurashia revealing a very skinny dragon with long limbs and a neck coughing up blood. "Really Toshinori? You haven't followed the rules that Aunt Cream gave you on behalf of Uncle David?"

Toshinori coughs a bit more blood into his hand, "Its good to see you too Alice," he wheezes a bit, chuckling when he sees Izumi's shock look of disbelief, "Now…you five need a place to stay do you not?"

Izumi pulls up her legs, wrapping her arms around them as Kitt leans into her on the couch. She watches as the rabbit Mobian, Ella place down a plate of food on the coffee table, giving her and Kitt a kind smile. Izumi nervously smiles back, gripping her medallion while Kitt clings to her tighter. "Its alright dears, this is for you. Both of you are way too skinny! You need to eat!"

Izumi nods her head before she takes one of the bowls of rice, giving it to Kitt once she made sure it wasn't poisoned before grabbing her own bowl. The two started to eat, Ella nodding happily before Izumi turned her gaze to the four who were now talking. All Might (who was skinny, Izumi's life was a lie), Ethan, and the cat and Echidna-Bat who she now knew was name Melody and Alice.

"I think that even when we get into contact with Aunt Topaz," Alice states her pink eyes narrow, "as Ethan had said we won't be able to leave the Continents. Eggman will start his takeover here now since he'll be thinking that since he almost has control of the Islands he'll need to start focusing on the Continents,"

"Luckily for us, with the way I burned Infinite," Izumi tilts her head when she sees Alice flinched at Melody's words, "And the fact that either way Eggman's base was left behind or was taken along with the Chaos Control, we will have a year before he tries to strike again."

Alice nods her head, "So we need to focus on getting in contact with the Resistance and keeping a look out for Eggman when he does strike out. Luckily with us three having licenses we won't get in trouble,"

"What about us?" Izumi saw how the four turned to her and Kitt, "What can we do?"

"Well…" Alice looks at Ethan, Melody and All Might, "We could help you find you-"

Izumi shakes her head, "I'm an orphan…my mom,"she closes her eyes, remembering the screams of pain, her mother's last words to her to keep running, "my mom died when I was eight, and my dad left us when I was four and stopped contacting us when just before mother's death," she shrugs at their looks of sadness, "Starline found me and took me in…help me with my…condition."

"Condition?" Melody asked in concern.

"You saw how I was acting before I drained that car battery dry?" Izumi put her arms behind her head, "Unlike other Mobians I can't seem to make my own Chaos Energy…everytime I used my Quirk I was slowly killing myself. Starline made it so that I can drain energy from other sources, mostly electricity so I can replenish my own stores…" Izumi sighs, placing her hands on her knees, gripping them hard, "I was so happy when he did it," she whispers, "I ..I allowed him to do whatever he wanted…all in the name of becoming a hero…" she then growls her wolf-like tail lashing, "And it was a lie…all of it was a lie…I was going to be damn fake…a villain pretending to be a hero…"

"You're not a fake," Izumi looks up to see All Might smiling at her, "Remember what I said to you earlier? Being a Hero means taking responsibility for others..and I think you proved that when you saved the boy," he ignores Ethan's cough of ungrateful brat, "There's something that is said about top heroes when they were still students. Most of the stories are linked by the following line: 'My body moved on its own before I could think!' And that is what happened to you isn't it?" Izumi shyly nods her head, "Well..I think that means you can become a HEro…of course that means going to a school,"

"Wait what?" Izumi looks up eyes wide. Her… at a school? She hasn't been at a school since she was eight, "But… What about Eggman? I can't just sit down and.." she stops when Alice places a hand on her shoulder.

"Izumi… you're a child. This war doesn't concern you at all. Also you don't have a license. Me, Melody and Ethan all have our licenses and have been trained. Also you two will be arrested because of Yurashia's vigilante laws," Izumi pouts, crossing her arms but she looks up when Ethan pats her on the head.

"Hey don't worry, you'll be kicking villains' butt before you know it," he smiles at her, "But Alice is right… here at Yurashia they hate vigilantes. Right now you can focus on what kind of Hero school you want to go to.."

Izumi bites at her lips, "But…what if I don't deserve to be a Hero…what if I.." Kitt whines wrapping his arms around her while Ethan blinks, "Sure I saved Kaa-Bakugou but All Might was right. I thought without thinking…I don't deserve to be a hero and its not just because of Starline…all my dreams of being a Hero get those close to me killed,"

"What do you mean by that, Young Midoriya?" All Might asked in concern.

"My mom told me to not use my powers…not only because using it was killing me but because people would want it. My powers were on par with Sonic and Shadow's Quirks, many people said…that if I didn't have that damn drawback of it killing me I would have been a great Hero. Mom wanted me to keep it quiet…but I didn't listen.

"Your mom sounds like a wise lady," Ethan said, sitting beside her, "There's a lot of people out there who want power from someone else to dominate…others are scared," Izumi looks up at him, "My sister and I are always looked at with suspicion from the Council. They don't trust the children of a former Eggman Robot and an AI that was brainwashed into taking over an entire city by an insane Queen,"

Izumi nods her head, "I…I know that…when he came…I..I don't know who he was…I can't even remember what he looks like…just his glowing yellow eyes…" she rubs at her head, "Mom fought him…told me to keep running…to never stop running," she closes her eyes, "If I didn't use my powers… she would still be alive…I even disobeyed her again just right after her death with going with Starline…my dreams keep hurting pe-" she then yelps when Ethan pulls at her ear.

"That's bullshit," Izumi looks up at him, "That's the thinking of a quitter. You're mother raised a rising hero,"

"But I failed her," Izumi whispers.

"There are plenty of others willing to call you a failure. A loser. A hopeless souse," he gently grabs her shoulders, making her look up into his blue eyes, "Don't you ever say it of yourself. You send out the wrong signal, that is what people pick up. Don't you understand? You care about something, you fight for it. You hit a wall, you push through it. There's something you need to know about failure, Izumi. You can never let it defeat you,"

Izumi stares at him with wide green eyes, her gaze slowly turning to look at Drippy, All Might…Melody and Alice who were all giving her encouraging smiles.

"When your mom told you to never stop running," Izumi turns her gaze back to Ethan, "she meant never stop running to your dream. Your dream is your goal, your purpose, your very destiny,"

Izumi grips her medallion, feeling it warm under her touch… "My…my dream…" she gulps a spark lightning up in her green eyes, "My dream is to go to U.A…its where All Might went to…and if I could learn heroics there…" All Might laughs, making Izumi blush.

"Then we got about ten months to get you ready," Izumi nods her head, "But first thing first is to get you and your friend here to a doctor," Izumi raises an eyebrow at that, "We need to know what Starline actually did to you two while you both were under his care," All Might turns to a black feather crane who stood at the side, "Tanaka could you set an appointment for these two at Recovery Clinic?"

"Of course, sir," Tanaka bows before heading off. Izumi on the other hand was staring at All Might with wide eyes, her mouth dropped open.

"Recovery Clinic? You mean the hospital that is owned by Recovery Girl? That clinic?" she squeaks out her tail shooting up in disbelief. All Might chuckles and nods his head, opening his mouth before they all turn their heads when they hear the sound of a door opening.

"Toshi, I'm heading off to patrol," a rat mobian with scruffy black and blue fur with splotches of white came down the stairs. Munching on a pretzel he looks over his red and black eyes catching sight of Alice, Etham, Izumi and Kitt and finally Melody. His eyes widen, before he yelps as he trips falling down the stairs and landing on his back.

"Young Tenko!" All Might shouts, standing up quickly, "Are you alright?"

"Pretzel dude went down hard," Izumi said while Melody and Alice looked in confusion. Ethan just snickers.

Manic laughs as he flies on his hoverboard down the pipes"This is Espio. My team's engaging the enemy in the orbital tunnel. I think we can hold them off for now,"

'Got it Espio. Me and Uncle Manic will focus on getting to that shuttle!" Thaila's and Espio's voice rang through the transceiver in his ear. Red nanties appear beside him forming into Thaila, now wearing a red sleeveless shirt with blue jeans shorts, a golden broach with a red gem in the middle. Thaila's metallic hands glow red, one wrapping around Manic in the middle while the other stretched long to grab a pole that was sticking out, swinging the both of them to another pipe.

Her green eyes narrow, "Swatbots, straight ahead,"

Manic nods his head, pulling two drumsticks out of his fanny pack, spinning one in his hand he throws it, the drumstick crashing into the necks of the swatbot and ripping their heads off before flying back towards him. Manic smiles as he easily catches the stick while Thaila raises her hand, her red nanites forming into red shields which she uses to block a blast from one of the Swatbots before she slams it into the robot, crushing it before exploding.

Using his Ex Gear, Manic flies over the swarm of Swatbots, onto another platform. With Thaila, they ride down the platform, the Lynx using her shield to stop any Swatbot in their way. Manic grits his teeth together, his blue eyes looking around. Out of his siblings, Manic knew that he was the weakest…he wasn't as fast as Sonic…nor strong as Sonia…but he was smart, and had to, to be a thief during the reign of Towers. His eyes caught sight of a freight train, "If we can catch that…we could be able to get to where the shuttle is,"

"Then we have a plan," Thaila says as Manic directs the Ex-Gear towards a rail, grinding down on it before the two are sent flying. Thaila clings to him with a scream escaping her throat as the two fall forward, landing on top of the freight. They slid a bit, Manic, grabbing the edge with one hand, his other hand grabbing Thaila's wrist. With a bit of grunting he throws Thaila back on top, pulling himself up and just in time to look over to see the train going through a tunnel that wasn't big enough for them to go through as well. Thaila quickly grabs him, and raising her arm, a grapple hook escapes from her bracelet, the lynx jumps, swinging both her and Manic upwards.

"Another train incoming!" Thaila turns her head to see that Manic was right. Manic throws his Ex Gear down, the two landing on it, before with a burst of energy, it zooms off, just in time before the train could hit them. Landing on another platform they grind down, Thaila's eyes glowing as she catches the sight of the shuttle. She looks at Manic who nods, spinning his drumsticks.

"I got your back kid…just focus on hacking that shuttle so we can get Sonic and Shadow back!"

Thaila nods her head as Manic skids the Ex-Gear to a halt, her form glowing red before surging towards the control panel. Manic turns with a grin before he leans into a stance "May not have my drums, but I still got the skills to beat ya swatbots down," He grins before he charges as the shuttle begins to spark with red energy.

Izumi blinks her eyes as she was pulled from the cat scan. Shaking her head she allowed the nurses to pull off the wires that they placed along her body. Taking a deep breath she looks to the window where All Might, or Toshinori as his name was, Melody and Alice were standing alongside the doctor that was looking over her and Kitt. Thanks to Toshi and his friend, Naomasa Tsukauchi, they were able to open up Izumi's old file. Izumi didn't know what to think that the police force had just declared her dead after only a month of searching for her.

"Well I guess it could have been worse. If I was Quirkless then they would have me declared dead after a week," she smiles as Kitt shakes out his fur before falling behind her. Sighing she pulled him up to stand beside her, smiling at the eight year old who was her only friend…who was like her brother. She shakes her head at those thoughts before the nurses lead them to the room where the others were waiting.

Doctor Shinso, a dark violet ocelot with dark shadows underneath his eyes, was looking at the screen in disbelief. He yawns, shaking his head, "Honestly…it's amazing these kids are still sane,"

He points at the scans, revealing their skeletons. Izumi grimaces, rubbing her arm, remembering. She pulls Kitt into a hug, both taking deep breaths, "Their bones have been coated in some kind of metal alloy…both are now durable to be thrown into a building and not be hurt by it,"

"Been there done that," Izumi mutters, making Melody frown sadly at her.

"While both have the metal alloy, it seems that Midoriya is the one who was most experimented on. Our scans show that she is fire proof, bullet proof, shockproof," Izumi scoffs and grows bored a bit, "Can lift 3000 times her own size," Izumi smirks and picks up a chair with one hand, Alice still in it making her squeak before Izumi places it down. "On the soles of her hands and feet, she can walk on walls," Izumi grins, looking down from the ceiling to grin at Melody and Toshinori who looked up at her. Kitt sighs, shaking his head.

"Her eyes have electromagnetic vision, infrared vision and night vision…her sense of hearing and smell are stronger than a regular hedgehog mobain.."

"If Ethan wasn't patrolling he would probably say that Izumi was being based off of Stitch," Melody said while not noticing Kitt opening his mouth before Izumi covers it.

Doctor Shinso chuckles, "Still we did find some problems…the two won't be able to swim but it seems that Kitt won't have any problems thanks to his Quirk allowing him to control water.

Kitt nods his head, pulling Izumi's hand away from his mouth, "I was made to look out for her, no matter what. I'll do anything for her!"

Izumi smiles, picking him up and placing him on her shoulders, their hands gripping each other tightly. Izumi gives Kitt a smile, telling him that she was ok. He knew that talking about her abilities…was hard for her. Starline mostly focused on her than Kitt…he made Kitt smarter…smarter than a super computer..but he focused more on making Izumi stronger…faster… better than Sonic and Shadow…as she was suppose to replace them.

'

"But it's their minds that I'm more worried about," Doctor Shinso sighs leaning into his chair, "It seems their prone to hypnotic waves," he points to the scans of their brains, "We seen these types of scans many times before. Even in my own son who inherited his mother's Quirk.

Alice frowns, "Starline's Quirk allowed him to hypnotize people," she turns when Izumi growls, her bangs making shadows on her face.

"Yeah he did that to us. He made me hate Sonic. He made Kitt only care about pleasing me…" she growls in anger, tail lashing out, "He messed with our brains..so he could have the perfect creations...creations that will think what he wants us to think…creations that want what he desires…creations to be who he wants them to be…"

Izumi looks up when she feels arms wrap around her and looks up to see Alice hugging her, "Remember what All Might and Ethan told you, okay?"

Izumi takes a deep breath and nods her head before they all turn their heads to Doctor Shinso, "Well it's a good thing we have an easy fix to that," he begins to write down on a notebook, "We have a doctor on staff whose blood can nullify the effects of Quirks. He donates the blood to the hospital, and we turn them into pills. We can give them to you and in a couple of weeks all the programing from the hypnosis Quirk will be faded away,"

Izumi stares in shock at this but smiles. Later her and Kitt were following the three out of the hospital, grimaces on their faces as they took the medicine that they've been subscribed to take for the next two weeks. All Might had in his hands the files about Izumi which he plans to give to Tsukauchi so Izumi could be declared fully alive.

"Once you've been declared alive, I'll ask Nedzu for any good online programs you can use. To help get ready for U.A," Toshinori smiles at the pure look of joy on Izumi's face, "And then I'll try to find a good place for you to train., you not only need smarts but strength to be able to get into the U.A Hero Course!"

Izumi nods her head again but then yelps when something knocks into her legs. Looking down she blinks at the small jackal pup. Her wide red eyes stare at Izumi with fear and confusion. Izumi tilts her head, staring at the bluish off-white messy hair that reaches down to her waist, her unkempt white fur, with a small brown horn poking out from the right side of her forehead. Her paws gripped her tan dress which was dirty, but Izumi's eyes caught sight of the bandages wrapped around her arms and waist…the sight of it reminded Izumi of her time with Starline..wearing a pale blue hospital gown as..she shakes her head, her body trembling as Alice kneels down.

"Hello sweetie…are you ok?" The little jackal pup flinches, turning her head and making the five of them turn to see a white tiger mobian with a few red flecks here and there. His hair was black that was spiked upwards above his head with bang hanging low over his eyes. What was most striking those was the patches of gnarled, wrinkled purple skin that was covering most of his lower face and neck, all the way down to his collar bone, below his eyes and around his torso along with his arms and legs. They appeared to be attached to his skin by multiple crude staples.

Like most male mobians he was hardly wearing any clothes except for a pair of gloves, black dress shoes and a dark blue jacket with a high ripped collar.

"Cme on kid we need to get out of," he stops staring at the group before growling at them, "Stop staring at us and let us get going,"

"Young man are you alright?" Toshinori asked, staring at his blue eyes.

"Oh he won't be," the pup whines and Izumi blinks when she burrows into her side as they stared up at auburn scaled cobra that slither out of the alley. The tiger snarls, blue flames erupting from his hand, "This man stole my daughter…I wish to have her back now," he glares down, Izumi could tell he was frowning underneath the magenta plague mask. The pup whimpers and he shakes his head, "She gets carried away with her games of pretend. Made my employee here who was watching her get the wrong idea. Such a troublemaker this one is…"

" P-please," Izumi looks down, watching the pup cling to her yellow and black sweater, "D-don't go…" Izumi's eyes widen, tensing up as Kitt's fur begins to bristle. Heart beating she glares at the man, frowning.
