Reignite, Green Scar!!
MHA/SVTFoE fic
Premise: A moment with a family that brings consequences.
Chapter 3.5 Only Business is Family Business
In another dimension…
Her name was Siamal.
She was the last one left.
In the beginning, they weren't even born. The story started, with all things of magic and battle, with Mewni and their magic queens. They carved out a Kingdom for themselves and attempted to grab everything into their rule. Monsters either bent the knee or fought them.
It was a futile effort.
The Butterflies were favored by Magic. That unknown but all encompassing element that changed the world. It changed the rules.
There were challengers to this. Many times Monsters and other mewnians tried to shake the Butterfly hold on the land. They failed.
Even the Rabbit Kingdoms Messiah, The Green Scar, could only wound the Crown but not destroy it.
He did prove that they bled. And that's what other groups tried to do.
The Black Hand rose to the challenge.
They discovered the truth. That magic was not solely of the Butterfly domain.
Not just the fire demons of the Underworld and other magical creatures. Anyone could learn magic. They need only find it.
The first Hand found a way to the realm and was touched by the arcane. They attempted to channel this power to learn necromancy. The lost sacrifices were returned and thoughts of conquest grew.
They failed.
The Butterfly and Rabbits and Lucitors and Pony heads and so many others did not take kindly to the new power. They were afraid of what the Black Hand could do. The reach they could have.
The dreams came to fruition by the founding of the second Hand.
Their true leader came then.
He called himself Shigaraki. By his hands, all creation was laid to ash. He decimated many of the first hand's leadership when they tried to control him.
He spoke of Vengeance on those that held him back. Of a society that wronged him.
And that he hated.
And in that hate, the Black hand opened themselves to him. He could have their lives to do what he wished.
So he opened his own hand and took them into his hate. He promised destruction to those who stood in his way. And in that palm, new life would grow for the Black Hand.
Where they would decide who lived, who died, and who stood at the top.
Soon his other hands came as well.
The Doppelganger.
The Blood Countess.
The Seething Flame.
The Scaly Herald.
And the Magician.
With a Black Hand and a Villainous Hand, Shigaraki would break Mewni!!
But…but this prophecy was not meant to be.
The Green Scar, a human from Shigaraki's realm, reemerged to do battle with their Lord. Perhaps the Green Scar was just one who loved to fight? Or he sensed the Power of Ruin and wanted to test himself against it?
Either way, he and the forces of Mewni rallied against the Black hand.
And somehow…they won.
While the Black fingers struck mighty blows and even decimated one of the pillars of the Butterflies, The Magic High Council, the forces of Mewni rallied something more on their side.
It had to be the Green Scar. If he could give birth to a new Kingdom, then he could conceivably rally others to fight. Even the tumultuous kingdoms with bad blood.
Like a Champion of old. Or a Butterfly Queen.
He hurt Shigaraki.
He hurt the Evil Hand.
And he shattered the Black Hand.
Their Lord fled before he was destroyed and only took the evil hand and a few black fingers with him. The rest had to contend with the Green Scar's hurt forces.
Siamal's parents were one such group. They evaded the retribution and were left with only two choices: give up or find their Lord.
The Black Hand split further. One group went to a different dimension to hide.
Her group instead took the great pilgrimage. They would find their lord and restore him to power. No matter how long it took and how many were lost in the time to get there.
By their black hand, Shigaraki shall rise again!

"For the last time Siamal, you go through the fire dimension, then ice dimension, then meat dimension, hang three dimensions to the left, and go down! We've already gone right of the ice dimension and it was too dangerous to do anything! We lost three members from there alone!" Shouted Siamal's father.
He'd been on the journey since they started nearly seventy years ago. That's what they get for crossing into one of the time quickening dimensions to cut time.
The family was made of Septarians who were brought into Shigaraki's plan to upend the current Order and remake it. But like Toffee, the attempt failed and the rest of their Kingdom ran them out with the rest of the Black Hand. His Grandfather and Father had tried and fallen before they could reach the end. And now their hopes were being pinned on the latest descendant, his daughter Siamal.
"It's no problem Father! I returned before the menace of time could afflict me! I'm still hale and hearty enough for at least three more expeditions!" The dark blue lizard-like young woman replied.
"I can see that but you must keep in contact! You are our herald to the Master and if we lose you, we won't be able to help him! DO NOT SCREW AND WIND U GETTING STUCK IN A WORTHLESS DIMENSION!"
"Aye, Aye!" She yelled with a salute. "Now I'm off!"
"Didn't you just hear me?!" He cried out.
She did and that gave her the courage to leap through the worlds. Armed with not dimensional scissors but a claw gauntlet, she cuts through walls and leaps in to try to find the right combination to find her heart's desire.
Yes. While she is a true member of the Black Hand, there is another reason why she wishes to find the Master.
And that's for love.
Wait for me, Knight Spinner! Don't worry! No matter what has been said about you, I, Siamal won't let the cruel hand of fate keep us away any longer! I'll find you! I promise!

A short and silly moment in the Family Business arc. Mostly to show that the rest of Shiggy's army isn't sitting idly. Its hard to find things across time and space and with no knowledge but hey! Maybe an imaginary love can light the way!
Debating on adding more to this arc. Most likely will be in the next one soon enough. That's gonna be short before we get to some real battles.
Stay tuned.

"I'll see you guys later." Izuku tightened up his shoe laces and prepared to leave.
"Later Deku!" Many of his classmates called out.
"Huh?" Except for Bakugou as he came down into the common room. "The heck's Deku running off to?"
"I've got some errands to run so I'll be out for the rest of the day." Just before he opened the door, a thought came to him. "Oh! Uraraka! You and the others are still on to host Usagi?"
Said girl hopped to her feet and gave a fist pump. "You got it, Deku!"
"What the hell?! UA's letting randos in here?!"
"They're friends of this really good sweet shop Deku took us and Eri to. They're from America and everything."
"Oh yeah!" Denki said as a memory came to him. "I literally forgot about that. Also dang, Midoriya, secret dates right under our noses! You sly fox!"
There were many chuckles from the guys of the class. Ochaco had to look away when she felt Mina's teasing gaze fall on her back. Please don't.
Izuku rubbed the back of his head and looked bashful. "It wasn't like that! Really it wasn't."
"In any case, we promise to be excellent hosts to them! Any friends of yours are friends of ours!" Ida's rousing speech did the trick to rouse interest in the others. Some thought of games to play and cool tricks they could show the new people with their quirks. Ida tried to make a white board itinerary of what they could do before the day was done.
Mineta's suggestion was erased out of hand.
Mina had a whole dance dance revolution idea and was about to get the pad needed for the floor before Jiro tried to hold her back. Kota, bless him, already had his own pet rabbit out.
…Izuku and Uraraka and Tsu had to take him aside to explain Usagi. Hopefully it won't get weird.
Izuku watched it all with a fond smile. The energy and chaos of it really did make him feel like he was back in his old time. The past few weeks had been nothing but fun and a return to form.
He bade them one last goodbye before he went to meet with All Might. The man was giving him a ride to both the Cake shop and the office.
----RGS------
"Thank you for coming, Everyone. I understand you have busy schedules but we appreciate you taking time out for this operation." Tsukauchi said.
The red and blue clad Flame Hero Endeavor nodded as he stood with his arms crossed and his flaming facial hair on. Beside him were three other heroes.
One was Kamui Woods, the current 7th ranked hero on the Hero boards.
The second was Death Arms.
Finally was the Heroine who made her debut nearly a year ago, Mount Lady.
"So any reason we're here with the number one and our pal, number seven?" The strengthening quirk Hero asked. He tapped his against his pocket on reflex, wanting a smoke. "Especially with something this…well, this crazy. Me and Mount Lady are still working the beat."
Other worlds and magic? That was a fresh set silly to dumb on those not even in the top ten.
"It's mostly for compatibility with Kamui woods. According to polls and everyday witness accounts, you three have good compatibility despite the limitations of working within the city. SInce this is a much wider space, we hope you can work to the fullest."
"Yeah but with Endeavor here shouldn't things be wrapped up?"
"My sidekicks would have made for a good team but me and my top members being out and about will get people talking." Endeavor cut in. "If we want to keep this a secret for long, two of the top ten and two everyday heroes should be enough to not arouse much suspicion. Besides, there's enough street heroes that you won't be missed for a couple of hours."
"Why does that sound like an insult?" Both Mount Lady and Death Arms both had tick marks.
"I didn't mean it like that."
He didn't but his face could give them the wrong idea.
The blonde woman looked at the papers again. It wasn't like she wasn't interested. Sure this stuff wouldn't be made public in Japan for a good while but getting on the good side of a whole world should do wonders for her career. Plus wide open spaces with no cars? Heck yeah!
No property damage claims for her!
Tsukauchi got a ring on his phone. "Izuku Midoriya's here. We can begin."
As they shuffled out, Mount Lady muttered, "Feels weird to be going to another world with that plain kid from the sports fest."
"And from the Sludge Villain incident." Kamui added.
"Yeah. Wonder why we keep running into him so much?"
"Perhaps that's just our fate. But hopefully you don't have to shield him with your face this time."
She stuck her tongue out at him. He was gonna get it later.
----------
"Holy crap ki-I mean Dude! What happened to you?!"
Ok not the most hospitable way to talk about someone's appearance after seeing them age up two decades but can you blame her? Sure Midoriya got tall and kinda hot in that older dude way but he seriously needed a nap!
He didn't seem to mind it but she apologized all the same.
The Rabbits were a neat group. Same with the…Mewnis? Mewnians? The magic people that they were neighbors with.
And everyone treated Midoriya with a lot of respect. Like All Might level of respect. Given that he apparently helped build the nation, she can see why.
It may have annoyed her if these guys weren't also in awe of her and the other heroes too. Looks like Midoriya was their one person hype machine. They didn't have a chance to show off their quirks for the adoring, and admittedly cute looking, crowd but just a few waves and a smile would start her rise.
They met the Royals, who she was told were Japanese because of Midoriya, and she had to fight to not make a fool of herself.
The king Rabbit presented them with a magical map of Mewni. It looked colorful and almost holographic with how the ink just appeared and disappeared on its own. It also had a GPS tracker showing them where they were.
The Rabbit face that showed the Rabbit Kingdom was cute and funny.
"There are a few sites out west and near the border of the Butterfly and Rabbit Kingdoms. It's entirely neutral to be frank. We've heard rumblings of mysterious people around it. If you wish, you can go there to check for any of the Black Hand forces and see Mewni on a carriage ride."
"That'll be fine. Will..Deku be our guide?" Endeavor asked.
"I am." That explained why he was in a modified form of his hero costume. It was made to fit his adult form though he kept the mask off. Yu had to give it to the now older…guy, older guy. The mark on his face and his age was oddly cute but mature.
But really the bags under his eyes needed some care.
----RGS-----
"HELLFIRE!!"
The Blonde Heroine was treated to the site of barbequed beast. She then went back to squishing the ones trying to bite her toes. "Quit it, you little gnats!"
"Hey, watch it! We're still on your feet!" Death Arms was having a time of it. It was lucky that his Strength Quirk let him bowl through these beasts with a little effort. He was also assisted by Kamui locking them in place with his roots.
The monsters were a type of chimera beast. Borrowing the bulky frame from the hench guards from some place called Heinous School for Wayward Princesses, some animal pieces were spliced in to make a bunch of bodyguards and foot soldiers for the Black Hand. Many of them escaped during the fight between Shigaraki and Deku. And since everyone was in recovery mode, the beasts had a chance to just roam around.
"Can't believe there are creepy Nomu here too." Mount Lady complained as she scratched the sole of her foot against a broken building. The green mush that was part of their insides was something she didn't want to think about.
"That's not too far off describing them, actually." Deku was a hopping mad bruiser as he went from chimera to chimera. He was kicking the crap out of them from head to toe. One he even punted to the moon.
Yu could only look up and watch the flying beast disappear into the sky.
"Did that one actually reach the moon?" Death Arms asked.
"Probably."
-----RGS----
Kamui Woods was given the lead in the south end forest area. They were meeting with another Kingdom of Monsters. And really, they needed a different name for them. The heteromorphic inhabitants weren't like those chimera. They had education and housing and families. He heard from the reports that there were reforms going around to help integrate them with the Mewnians more.
Maybe Gang Orca can help with that.
"Presenting the Sheep Kingdom." One of the delegates, surprisingly not a sheep, announced.
Out of one of the fanciest buildings in the town stepped a small sheep humanoid. It looked cute enough but much like the town, there was something eerie about the place. He couldn't put his finger on why though.
The Sheep Lord stepped forward, their long red cape being the sole thing that marked them as a leader. Kamui couldn't really tell if the person was a boy or girl though.
They smiled as their eyes landed on Izuku's masked face. "Green Scar. It's been so long."
"It's great to see you all doing so well. Sorry I never made time to visit."
"Just knowing you were alive all this time is enough for us. And please, you don't need that mask here."
"Oh!" He did take it off. "Sorry. I am technically in the hero business so Masks are usually mandatory."
" I understand. Though it is a shame to cover those freckles. You've only become much sharper since last we met."
Kamui was now looking between the two of them. Beside him, Mount Lady was secretly pointing between Deku and the Sheep. Thankfully she didn't say anything out loud.
She and He already knew what speculations on relationships were like. And shippers.
Like heck they were gonna build one here.
The group and the sheep spoke of the remaining threat of Black Hand. None has retreated this far into Mewni as far as this area is concerned. And since they had battled Hekapoo, there was a chance they were just hiding in the other dimensions.
"So we'd need your scissors to go on raids?" Endeavor asked.
Izuku shook his head. "These were specially made to teleport back to our time. They're effectively locked to here in Mewni to Japan."
"Can this Hekapoo then help?"
"Not at this time. For now, she's benched." Izuku looked away. "Not to mention the court hearing she's dealing with. The Rabbits may have a different set they could lend. Not to mention Star herself."
So they had options. That was good.
"Must you leave?" The Sheep Lord asked. They took Izuku's hands into theirs. "We would love to host you all."
"Maybe another time. We're only here for one day and we've made reservations at Butterfly castle."
The Sheep pouted but nodded.
"Well before you go, could you do me one little favor?"
"Anything." Izuku smiled.
One the Sheep Lord returned as they pulled something from out of their cloak. "Would you mind signing this?"
Izuku looked at the item…and went pale white.
"Wha? Wha?"
In the Sheep Lord's hands, there was a book. It was a mixture of purple and green and about as big as a handbook. Or an autograph book.
On the cover was the title of S-Tar Hero. There was even a golden star emblem under the words.
The Heroes didn't understand why Izuku was so spooked.
"Yes. All the wonderful songs you and Prince Justin and the others used to serenade the land. We have been enjoying these wondrous musicals for a long time now."
"But I Destroyed them! All of them! I was sure of it!"
The three heroes, except Endeavor, raised a brow. What was he so panicked about?
"We managed to find some lost manuscripts of your songs. Not all of them made it sadly but we did get your best hits written and we've been performing them."
"But…how…?"
"There was a name on the box we found these in." The Sheep Lord tapped their chin to recall it. "I think it was…Conr-no. Jeral-of course not…oh right!"
"It was Glossaryck!"
Silence…and then!
"DAMN YOU GLOSSARYCK!!!"
----RGS-----
Sometime later…
The sun was setting by the time the Heroes had finished their jaunt across Mewni. Since the time distortion between the Hero Earth and Mewni was way off, it was decided to let the quartet stay the night.
And it was the Butterfly castle that was playing host.
The dinner was a decent affair. A surprising amount of meat and corn. With Mount Lady out loud wondering why there was so much corn. The dinner table was the kind that was usually seen on one of those European royalty shows. So it really was like they had gone overseas.
"Wonder if I can get Knighted while here?" Death Arms asked aloud.
"It's actually quite possible. Izuku here knows the rituals for it." River replied.
"Eh?"
"Well, I do remember a few things…" The green haired man trailed off. His voice then got real low as his mutterings began to take hold. "..surethatSolariajustdidtheswordtapthingbutthatwasjustSolaria.TheremightbeawholeritualthatIneverreal-"
"Ok! Ok! Maybe later, Deku!"
Moon and River chuckled at how embarrassed he looked. Mount Lady not far behind.
"By the way, my good man. Sir Endeavor, is it?"
Said Hero looked up from his food. "Yes?"
"Are you really alright with having your face aflame like that?"
"It's my power."
"Hmm. Quite extraordinary." River began brushing his own beard. "Honey, do you think I coul-"
"No."
"Awww. But it looks so striking on sir Endeavor! I can even picture myself striking a similar countenance as I ride across the plains with Eagle."
Queen Moon paused as she gave it some thought. "While true, I'd rather you kept the beard the way it is River."
"Oh well. But of course my love."
The four heroes just let the romance talk go amongst the couple. It wasn't the first time such matters came out during a funded dinner with investors. Though they did notice that while Endeavor kept his eyes down on the food, Izuku gave the royals a small smile.
It was kinda…heart pulling.
Did he also have that kind of relationship with his Rabbit wife?
----RGS-----
The next day…
It was time to return to Hero Earth.
"I can't believe I just did a whole time wonky adventure today." Mount Lady said as they stood in the open field next to the Rabbit Kingdom. "But I gotta say it was kinda fun, despite being work."
"It felt like one of those adventure manga I used to read." Death Arms laughed. "Maybe next time, I could get in a coupla arm wrestlin matches. That King River's surprisingly buff."
"Should you be saying that outloud like that?" asked Kamui.
"It's a surprise but it's also a compliment."
Off to the side, Endeavor and Izuku were exchanging quick pleasantries with King Miyamoto and his wife Queen Vanilla. Most likely, sealing the deal between them with a handshake for now. The rest of the details would be hashed out later.
Mount Lady began to look around the Rabbit place, even taking note of the guards and the children.
Wait who? She looked back and there was a young rabbit child peeking around the corner. Her cute little sundress said she had to be a little girl, maybe even a princess. In her arms was some sort of blue teddy bear thing. There was another rabbit child behind her. He looked like a martial artist blended with a mysterious kid.
The two kids didn't say anything and just kept staring at wonder.
Yu waved at them.
The girl waved back, slowly smiling at her. The boy just kept trying to look cool.
"Oh, is that Cream and Scorch?"
Yu nearly jumped at the Queen sneaking up on her.
"Children! Come and say hello!" Queen Vanilla called out. With permission from her mom, the little rabbit floated right over, by her long ears. Scorch slowly walked over.
Well ok then.
"Are you heroes like Grampa?" Cream asked.
"Yup. We were even o-" she stopped herself. She almost called herself older. "We made our debut around the sameish time."
"Did you teach Grampa?"
"Not yet but maybe one day."
Then the child got a mystified look in her eyes. "Are you Grampa's girlfriend?"
The group got real quiet over that. Kamui and Death had to look away to cover their chuckles.
"...Hahaha. No." She answered. "He's a little older than me."
"Oh…do you want to be? He's a really nice person. And tall!"
"Cream…" Scorch muttered. Guess someone was feeling embarrassed. "I'm gonna go talk to Grandfather."
The lucky kid decided to leave and see what the other guys were doing. However, instead of walking he decided to hover like his little sister. Not by his ears but by little fire sparks coming off his feet.
"Huh. Guess that's why he got the name Scorch?"
"It's an interesting ability of his. Normally he'd just burp it when he was younger but he's learned to really push the flames around." Vanilla said.
"Neat little quirk." She guessed it was from Deku's side. Though she couldn't help but wonder what other things the Rabbits could add to the guy's lineage. Super strength and rabbits though…
"That's Miruko all the way. Talk about scary."
This time, Kamui and Death gave her terrified looks. And Mount Lady just realized the words she just spoke. If the Number five heroine heard what she just said, Yu would be running her ass out of the city and retiring to the countryside.
"Oh? Who's Miruko?" Queen Vanilla asked.
The blonde screwed up her face. Ok she'd dug a hole for herself. She could get out of it, easy-peasy.
"Oh! Ooh! Mama, she's The Bunny of Caen! Heroine of the Bone Burrow stories that Big Sis read and King Caenerbog liked! Grampa told stories about her way back when! If she's there in Grampa's other house, maybe they can go out!"
"Really…" There was a calculating look in the Queen's eye. Yu tried to sneak away before things could get worse.
She didn't even make it a step before she found a dainty but strong hand on her shoulder. Over her shoulder, the Queen's pretty smile was even scarier. "Ms, Lady, do you mind telling me more of this Miruko?"
Sorry Deku. I'm so sorry.
----NGS----
The portal closed behind them.
Izuku paused to stretch his youthful body. Switching between the two was a weird experience but it also was a bit of a relief. He was also glad to see that some of the belly fat he made during his release from Rhombulus's prison was going away.
They arrived in the private meeting room where Tsukauchi and another man were waiting for them. The report from their first foray has to be cataloged.
"It's very old fashioned." Endeavor summed up as he filled out his portion of the reports. "Bricks and mortars for the Butterflies and the Rabbits. Though their tatami interiors were made by masters of the craft."
"Oh? Would you agree that they would be interested in more mechanization?" Asked the other man, who gave his name as Pako.
They shrugged their shoulders. "We'll worry bout that after the League's dealt with." Death Arms said.
Kamui finished his parts. "I wouldn't mind going back through. You were right about my quirk and that place. I might be able to help excavate more of the old ruins. Find more artifacts."
"We would be happy to have you." Izuku said. "What about you, Mount Lady? Death Arms?"
"Sure, li- Deku."
"Uhhhh." Mouth Lady was avoiding looking him in the eye. "I'll think about it! Buuuut there's probably other heroines that wanna give the fantasy thing a whirl! Like Ryukyuu! Or heck, Miruko!"
Death Arms and Kamui just gaped.
"Oh! We were considering that!" Pako looked a little too enthusiastic about it. "Her schedule interfered but I believe we can convince her to come for a meet and greet."
"I don't mind." Izuku agreed.
Suddenly a knock at the door interrupted them. Another officer pushed the door open before he could even ask permission.
"Sir! There's been an incident at UA!"
"Later Deku!" Many of his classmates called out.
"Huh?" Except for Bakugou as he came down into the common room. "The heck's Deku running off to?"
"I've got some errands to run so I'll be out for the rest of the day." Just before he opened the door, a thought came to him. "Oh! Uraraka! You and the others are still on to host Usagi?"
Said girl hopped to her feet and gave a fist pump. "You got it, Deku!"
"What the hell?! UA's letting randos in here?!"
"They're friends of this really good sweet shop Deku took us and Eri to. They're from America and everything."
"Oh yeah!" Denki said as a memory came to him. "I literally forgot about that. Also dang, Midoriya, secret dates right under our noses! You sly fox!"
There were many chuckles from the guys of the class. Ochaco had to look away when she felt Mina's teasing gaze fall on her back. Please don't.
Izuku rubbed the back of his head and looked bashful. "It wasn't like that! Really it wasn't."
"In any case, we promise to be excellent hosts to them! Any friends of yours are friends of ours!" Ida's rousing speech did the trick to rouse interest in the others. Some thought of games to play and cool tricks they could show the new people with their quirks. Ida tried to make a white board itinerary of what they could do before the day was done.
Mineta's suggestion was erased out of hand.
Mina had a whole dance dance revolution idea and was about to get the pad needed for the floor before Jiro tried to hold her back. Kota, bless him, already had his own pet rabbit out.
…Izuku and Uraraka and Tsu had to take him aside to explain Usagi. Hopefully it won't get weird.
Izuku watched it all with a fond smile. The energy and chaos of it really did make him feel like he was back in his old time. The past few weeks had been nothing but fun and a return to form.
He bade them one last goodbye before he went to meet with All Might. The man was giving him a ride to both the Cake shop and the office.
----RGS------
"Thank you for coming, Everyone. I understand you have busy schedules but we appreciate you taking time out for this operation." Tsukauchi said.
The red and blue clad Flame Hero Endeavor nodded as he stood with his arms crossed and his flaming facial hair on. Beside him were three other heroes.
One was Kamui Woods, the current 7th ranked hero on the Hero boards.
The second was Death Arms.
Finally was the Heroine who made her debut nearly a year ago, Mount Lady.
"So any reason we're here with the number one and our pal, number seven?" The strengthening quirk Hero asked. He tapped his against his pocket on reflex, wanting a smoke. "Especially with something this…well, this crazy. Me and Mount Lady are still working the beat."
Other worlds and magic? That was a fresh set silly to dumb on those not even in the top ten.
"It's mostly for compatibility with Kamui woods. According to polls and everyday witness accounts, you three have good compatibility despite the limitations of working within the city. SInce this is a much wider space, we hope you can work to the fullest."
"Yeah but with Endeavor here shouldn't things be wrapped up?"
"My sidekicks would have made for a good team but me and my top members being out and about will get people talking." Endeavor cut in. "If we want to keep this a secret for long, two of the top ten and two everyday heroes should be enough to not arouse much suspicion. Besides, there's enough street heroes that you won't be missed for a couple of hours."
"Why does that sound like an insult?" Both Mount Lady and Death Arms both had tick marks.
"I didn't mean it like that."
He didn't but his face could give them the wrong idea.
The blonde woman looked at the papers again. It wasn't like she wasn't interested. Sure this stuff wouldn't be made public in Japan for a good while but getting on the good side of a whole world should do wonders for her career. Plus wide open spaces with no cars? Heck yeah!
No property damage claims for her!
Tsukauchi got a ring on his phone. "Izuku Midoriya's here. We can begin."
As they shuffled out, Mount Lady muttered, "Feels weird to be going to another world with that plain kid from the sports fest."
"And from the Sludge Villain incident." Kamui added.
"Yeah. Wonder why we keep running into him so much?"
"Perhaps that's just our fate. But hopefully you don't have to shield him with your face this time."
She stuck her tongue out at him. He was gonna get it later.
----------
"Holy crap ki-I mean Dude! What happened to you?!"
Ok not the most hospitable way to talk about someone's appearance after seeing them age up two decades but can you blame her? Sure Midoriya got tall and kinda hot in that older dude way but he seriously needed a nap!
He didn't seem to mind it but she apologized all the same.
The Rabbits were a neat group. Same with the…Mewnis? Mewnians? The magic people that they were neighbors with.
And everyone treated Midoriya with a lot of respect. Like All Might level of respect. Given that he apparently helped build the nation, she can see why.
It may have annoyed her if these guys weren't also in awe of her and the other heroes too. Looks like Midoriya was their one person hype machine. They didn't have a chance to show off their quirks for the adoring, and admittedly cute looking, crowd but just a few waves and a smile would start her rise.
They met the Royals, who she was told were Japanese because of Midoriya, and she had to fight to not make a fool of herself.
The king Rabbit presented them with a magical map of Mewni. It looked colorful and almost holographic with how the ink just appeared and disappeared on its own. It also had a GPS tracker showing them where they were.
The Rabbit face that showed the Rabbit Kingdom was cute and funny.
"There are a few sites out west and near the border of the Butterfly and Rabbit Kingdoms. It's entirely neutral to be frank. We've heard rumblings of mysterious people around it. If you wish, you can go there to check for any of the Black Hand forces and see Mewni on a carriage ride."
"That'll be fine. Will..Deku be our guide?" Endeavor asked.
"I am." That explained why he was in a modified form of his hero costume. It was made to fit his adult form though he kept the mask off. Yu had to give it to the now older…guy, older guy. The mark on his face and his age was oddly cute but mature.
But really the bags under his eyes needed some care.
----RGS-----
"HELLFIRE!!"
The Blonde Heroine was treated to the site of barbequed beast. She then went back to squishing the ones trying to bite her toes. "Quit it, you little gnats!"
"Hey, watch it! We're still on your feet!" Death Arms was having a time of it. It was lucky that his Strength Quirk let him bowl through these beasts with a little effort. He was also assisted by Kamui locking them in place with his roots.
The monsters were a type of chimera beast. Borrowing the bulky frame from the hench guards from some place called Heinous School for Wayward Princesses, some animal pieces were spliced in to make a bunch of bodyguards and foot soldiers for the Black Hand. Many of them escaped during the fight between Shigaraki and Deku. And since everyone was in recovery mode, the beasts had a chance to just roam around.
"Can't believe there are creepy Nomu here too." Mount Lady complained as she scratched the sole of her foot against a broken building. The green mush that was part of their insides was something she didn't want to think about.
"That's not too far off describing them, actually." Deku was a hopping mad bruiser as he went from chimera to chimera. He was kicking the crap out of them from head to toe. One he even punted to the moon.
Yu could only look up and watch the flying beast disappear into the sky.
"Did that one actually reach the moon?" Death Arms asked.
"Probably."
-----RGS----
Kamui Woods was given the lead in the south end forest area. They were meeting with another Kingdom of Monsters. And really, they needed a different name for them. The heteromorphic inhabitants weren't like those chimera. They had education and housing and families. He heard from the reports that there were reforms going around to help integrate them with the Mewnians more.
Maybe Gang Orca can help with that.
"Presenting the Sheep Kingdom." One of the delegates, surprisingly not a sheep, announced.
Out of one of the fanciest buildings in the town stepped a small sheep humanoid. It looked cute enough but much like the town, there was something eerie about the place. He couldn't put his finger on why though.
The Sheep Lord stepped forward, their long red cape being the sole thing that marked them as a leader. Kamui couldn't really tell if the person was a boy or girl though.
They smiled as their eyes landed on Izuku's masked face. "Green Scar. It's been so long."
"It's great to see you all doing so well. Sorry I never made time to visit."
"Just knowing you were alive all this time is enough for us. And please, you don't need that mask here."
"Oh!" He did take it off. "Sorry. I am technically in the hero business so Masks are usually mandatory."
" I understand. Though it is a shame to cover those freckles. You've only become much sharper since last we met."
Kamui was now looking between the two of them. Beside him, Mount Lady was secretly pointing between Deku and the Sheep. Thankfully she didn't say anything out loud.
She and He already knew what speculations on relationships were like. And shippers.
Like heck they were gonna build one here.
The group and the sheep spoke of the remaining threat of Black Hand. None has retreated this far into Mewni as far as this area is concerned. And since they had battled Hekapoo, there was a chance they were just hiding in the other dimensions.
"So we'd need your scissors to go on raids?" Endeavor asked.
Izuku shook his head. "These were specially made to teleport back to our time. They're effectively locked to here in Mewni to Japan."
"Can this Hekapoo then help?"
"Not at this time. For now, she's benched." Izuku looked away. "Not to mention the court hearing she's dealing with. The Rabbits may have a different set they could lend. Not to mention Star herself."
So they had options. That was good.
"Must you leave?" The Sheep Lord asked. They took Izuku's hands into theirs. "We would love to host you all."
"Maybe another time. We're only here for one day and we've made reservations at Butterfly castle."
The Sheep pouted but nodded.
"Well before you go, could you do me one little favor?"
"Anything." Izuku smiled.
One the Sheep Lord returned as they pulled something from out of their cloak. "Would you mind signing this?"
Izuku looked at the item…and went pale white.
"Wha? Wha?"
In the Sheep Lord's hands, there was a book. It was a mixture of purple and green and about as big as a handbook. Or an autograph book.
On the cover was the title of S-Tar Hero. There was even a golden star emblem under the words.
The Heroes didn't understand why Izuku was so spooked.
"Yes. All the wonderful songs you and Prince Justin and the others used to serenade the land. We have been enjoying these wondrous musicals for a long time now."
"But I Destroyed them! All of them! I was sure of it!"
The three heroes, except Endeavor, raised a brow. What was he so panicked about?
"We managed to find some lost manuscripts of your songs. Not all of them made it sadly but we did get your best hits written and we've been performing them."
"But…how…?"
"There was a name on the box we found these in." The Sheep Lord tapped their chin to recall it. "I think it was…Conr-no. Jeral-of course not…oh right!"
"It was Glossaryck!"
Silence…and then!
"DAMN YOU GLOSSARYCK!!!"
----RGS-----
Sometime later…
The sun was setting by the time the Heroes had finished their jaunt across Mewni. Since the time distortion between the Hero Earth and Mewni was way off, it was decided to let the quartet stay the night.
And it was the Butterfly castle that was playing host.
The dinner was a decent affair. A surprising amount of meat and corn. With Mount Lady out loud wondering why there was so much corn. The dinner table was the kind that was usually seen on one of those European royalty shows. So it really was like they had gone overseas.
"Wonder if I can get Knighted while here?" Death Arms asked aloud.
"It's actually quite possible. Izuku here knows the rituals for it." River replied.
"Eh?"
"Well, I do remember a few things…" The green haired man trailed off. His voice then got real low as his mutterings began to take hold. "..surethatSolariajustdidtheswordtapthingbutthatwasjustSolaria.TheremightbeawholeritualthatIneverreal-"
"Ok! Ok! Maybe later, Deku!"
Moon and River chuckled at how embarrassed he looked. Mount Lady not far behind.
"By the way, my good man. Sir Endeavor, is it?"
Said Hero looked up from his food. "Yes?"
"Are you really alright with having your face aflame like that?"
"It's my power."
"Hmm. Quite extraordinary." River began brushing his own beard. "Honey, do you think I coul-"
"No."
"Awww. But it looks so striking on sir Endeavor! I can even picture myself striking a similar countenance as I ride across the plains with Eagle."
Queen Moon paused as she gave it some thought. "While true, I'd rather you kept the beard the way it is River."
"Oh well. But of course my love."
The four heroes just let the romance talk go amongst the couple. It wasn't the first time such matters came out during a funded dinner with investors. Though they did notice that while Endeavor kept his eyes down on the food, Izuku gave the royals a small smile.
It was kinda…heart pulling.
Did he also have that kind of relationship with his Rabbit wife?
----RGS-----
The next day…
It was time to return to Hero Earth.
"I can't believe I just did a whole time wonky adventure today." Mount Lady said as they stood in the open field next to the Rabbit Kingdom. "But I gotta say it was kinda fun, despite being work."
"It felt like one of those adventure manga I used to read." Death Arms laughed. "Maybe next time, I could get in a coupla arm wrestlin matches. That King River's surprisingly buff."
"Should you be saying that outloud like that?" asked Kamui.
"It's a surprise but it's also a compliment."
Off to the side, Endeavor and Izuku were exchanging quick pleasantries with King Miyamoto and his wife Queen Vanilla. Most likely, sealing the deal between them with a handshake for now. The rest of the details would be hashed out later.
Mount Lady began to look around the Rabbit place, even taking note of the guards and the children.
Wait who? She looked back and there was a young rabbit child peeking around the corner. Her cute little sundress said she had to be a little girl, maybe even a princess. In her arms was some sort of blue teddy bear thing. There was another rabbit child behind her. He looked like a martial artist blended with a mysterious kid.
The two kids didn't say anything and just kept staring at wonder.
Yu waved at them.
The girl waved back, slowly smiling at her. The boy just kept trying to look cool.
"Oh, is that Cream and Scorch?"
Yu nearly jumped at the Queen sneaking up on her.
"Children! Come and say hello!" Queen Vanilla called out. With permission from her mom, the little rabbit floated right over, by her long ears. Scorch slowly walked over.
Well ok then.
"Are you heroes like Grampa?" Cream asked.
"Yup. We were even o-" she stopped herself. She almost called herself older. "We made our debut around the sameish time."
"Did you teach Grampa?"
"Not yet but maybe one day."
Then the child got a mystified look in her eyes. "Are you Grampa's girlfriend?"
The group got real quiet over that. Kamui and Death had to look away to cover their chuckles.
"...Hahaha. No." She answered. "He's a little older than me."
"Oh…do you want to be? He's a really nice person. And tall!"
"Cream…" Scorch muttered. Guess someone was feeling embarrassed. "I'm gonna go talk to Grandfather."
The lucky kid decided to leave and see what the other guys were doing. However, instead of walking he decided to hover like his little sister. Not by his ears but by little fire sparks coming off his feet.
"Huh. Guess that's why he got the name Scorch?"
"It's an interesting ability of his. Normally he'd just burp it when he was younger but he's learned to really push the flames around." Vanilla said.
"Neat little quirk." She guessed it was from Deku's side. Though she couldn't help but wonder what other things the Rabbits could add to the guy's lineage. Super strength and rabbits though…
"That's Miruko all the way. Talk about scary."
This time, Kamui and Death gave her terrified looks. And Mount Lady just realized the words she just spoke. If the Number five heroine heard what she just said, Yu would be running her ass out of the city and retiring to the countryside.
"Oh? Who's Miruko?" Queen Vanilla asked.
The blonde screwed up her face. Ok she'd dug a hole for herself. She could get out of it, easy-peasy.
"Oh! Ooh! Mama, she's The Bunny of Caen! Heroine of the Bone Burrow stories that Big Sis read and King Caenerbog liked! Grampa told stories about her way back when! If she's there in Grampa's other house, maybe they can go out!"
"Really…" There was a calculating look in the Queen's eye. Yu tried to sneak away before things could get worse.
She didn't even make it a step before she found a dainty but strong hand on her shoulder. Over her shoulder, the Queen's pretty smile was even scarier. "Ms, Lady, do you mind telling me more of this Miruko?"
Sorry Deku. I'm so sorry.
----NGS----
The portal closed behind them.
Izuku paused to stretch his youthful body. Switching between the two was a weird experience but it also was a bit of a relief. He was also glad to see that some of the belly fat he made during his release from Rhombulus's prison was going away.
They arrived in the private meeting room where Tsukauchi and another man were waiting for them. The report from their first foray has to be cataloged.
"It's very old fashioned." Endeavor summed up as he filled out his portion of the reports. "Bricks and mortars for the Butterflies and the Rabbits. Though their tatami interiors were made by masters of the craft."
"Oh? Would you agree that they would be interested in more mechanization?" Asked the other man, who gave his name as Pako.
They shrugged their shoulders. "We'll worry bout that after the League's dealt with." Death Arms said.
Kamui finished his parts. "I wouldn't mind going back through. You were right about my quirk and that place. I might be able to help excavate more of the old ruins. Find more artifacts."
"We would be happy to have you." Izuku said. "What about you, Mount Lady? Death Arms?"
"Sure, li- Deku."
"Uhhhh." Mouth Lady was avoiding looking him in the eye. "I'll think about it! Buuuut there's probably other heroines that wanna give the fantasy thing a whirl! Like Ryukyuu! Or heck, Miruko!"
Death Arms and Kamui just gaped.
"Oh! We were considering that!" Pako looked a little too enthusiastic about it. "Her schedule interfered but I believe we can convince her to come for a meet and greet."
"I don't mind." Izuku agreed.
Suddenly a knock at the door interrupted them. Another officer pushed the door open before he could even ask permission.
"Sir! There's been an incident at UA!"
And taht's part one of the long day done. I'll be coming back here to touch it up.
But Endeavor and our favorite little trio made it Mewni, met some old fans of Izuku, and help pave the way for diplomacy! It felt light on Endeavor since I wasn't sure how to use his comedy. The others were easier, especially Mount Lady. I'll put in more team attacks for the excavation scene.
And yup S-Tar Heroes, Izuku's boyband days are real here. His early twenties was a silly time.
Next time, Hero Earth's part in this little tale.

Izuku's Rabbit family wanting him to hook up, specifically, with the Rabbit Theme Hero is hilarious. For both the regular funnies, but also is just a little bit racist XD.
Yojimbo: I think Honored Grandfather would do well to date another Rabbit.
Vanilla: Indeed, they would fit better than the Frog and Mewman that Usagi saw with him.
Also jokes of
Vanilla: Of course He should date a Rabbit, they would be the only one to keep up with him. Our Honored Grandfather had immense stamina.
Toshinori, nervous: In what way?
Vanilla: In all the way that matters. You can see our history for proof!

"Just like a boarding school." Marco said as he gazed at the dorms the UA super kids were staying in. Heights Alliance was what it's called.
Star however, was looking around. She huffed at the state of the pristine yard work and how clean it was. "It's actually a lot cleaner than I thought it would be. With all these Champions teens our age in there, I'd figure they'd be duking it out all day. Maybe at least a coupla ditches."
"Star, it's a school."
"Peach Creek High had a ditch."
"That was from your football plan, which went terribly wrong."
"Oh yeah." She had forgotten that.
Usagi side eyed her. "Or your Mewberty incident."
"Hey, I fixed the lockers. And got rid of the hearts. Shame I couldn't cure Ms.Skullneck though." Star looked a little sad at that.
Marco hugged to his side. "You tried. Heck even tried to hook her up. So…you tried."
"Yep. Good job, Star." Usagi patted her shoulder before walking. "Now let's go see our super kids."
"Yeah!" Star took Marco's hand and practically ran for the front door. They slid open and there was Ochaco standing there, ready for them. Behind her were three more people: Ida, Momo, and Kaminari.
"Welcome!"
"Please be welcome in our humble abode. We have snacks and tea ready for consumption. I am Ida, class president." He said all this while sophisticated hand techniques.
"Cool. Names Usagi Miyamoto. These are my minions, Star and Marco." The white rabbit said first.
Star looked offended as she pushed her cheek against Usagi's. "Hey! I thought I was the leader!"
"And I reject the minion name!"
"Hey, I'm taking point and helping show you guys around!" The tone of her voice made it seem like she was joking but something said she was serious. Serious about messing with them.
"Anyway, let's party!"
----
Things became a little silly and a little hectic after the first greeting.
But once the kids were inside, the fun really began.
For Usagi, it was a real but wild ride. Having grown up with the stories of the 2A heroes the Green Scar told tales of, she wasn't ashamed to say she was a fan.
Creati the Genie was just as nice as she heard. The fact she was able to take food, eat it, and make handy dandy stuff out of her body was still nuts. The three Mewni reps weren't there to see it but she made a new rice cooker and a crown!
Though Usagi wasn't expecting her to be a princess as well.
She made the elegant stuff look so easy.
Ingenium Swiftleg felt like a weird older brother. Helpful and making all those weird hand moves. Marco seemed to be the only one who seemed to be following along the movements.
Usagi narrowed her eyes. Was there some sort of Earth secret code there?
The only crazy meetings happened when she saw him.
"HOLY CRAP! KING EXPLOSION MURDER!"
Bakugou looked confused but pleased to hear someone call him that.
"Yer that Rabbit Deku met?"
"Yup. Hey, is it true your hair becomes spikier every time you shout?"
"The hell? No!"
"What about you being able to scare villains just by growling?"
"Obviously!"
"When has that ever happened?" Kaminari asked Jirou.
Bakugou then looked her up and down. She was short but she seemed confident. "And you? Can you fight?"
Usagi smirked. "Anytime, anywhere. Still gotta beat my minions first."
That was when Bakugou finally noticed that the blond with the heart cheeks was staring at him too. She even looked like she was about to touch his hair. Till the Hoodie kid stopped her.
"Any new friends of Midoriya are pals of mine." And in came the infamous gremlin of the class. Mineta had a rose in his mouth and was wiggling his eyebrows.
"Not interested." Said Usagi.
"Awww, aren't you tiny? But no." said Star.
Flat Out Rejection.
------
The students put out mats on the carpet so that they could do some dancing. While they all cut a little rug, Usagi and Mina broke out the breakdancing.
A true spark of rivalry was made that day.
-----
Star petted the rabbit that Koda brought to show off.
"This is the softest coat I've ever felt. So nice~." She marveled.
Koda smiled indulgently.
Marco was busy looking between the rabbit and Usagi and wondered if this counted as weird. Judging by how the Rabbit Mewnian was looking at the earth rabbit with a considering eye, perhaps it wasn't that bad.
Awkward moment skipped.
Marco did agree that it was the cutest and fluffiest thing he'd petted in a while.
----
"From the East!" Ojiro declared striking an open hand pose. He also had on his martial arts uniform.
"From the West!" Said Marco with a standard fist pose. He too donned the look of a karate man.
"Look! The Sky is Burning Red!" They crossed hands and raised them to the Sky. "Plus Ultra!!"
The guys cheered in manly approval.
----
"Mega Pony Shine!" Star yelled as she used her wand. In a splash of color, a radiant blue manned pony appeared in the room.
The collected squeal of joy from the girls almost broke the glass from the front door and the windows. In a flash they were fawning over the majestic looking horse. Kota was as well.
"The shining beacon of femininity." Tokoyami commented.
"Oh! I can also make Warnicorns!" Star suggested.
"A what?" Asked Mina.
Suddenly another unicorn appeared. One with rainbow teeth and a sinister look in its eyes as it tensed for battle. It narrowed at the sight of the boys.
"Nono. We're good." Usagi spoke up.
The unsettling being was quickly put away.
"Still your quirk is amazing, Ms. Butterfly." Momo commented.
"Ugh. Please no. Call me Star!"
"Star then. It kinda reminds me of my own except more flashy." To demonstrate, the taller girl held out her arm and started making Matryoshka dolls. She did change up the style to make them look like Star though.
"Oooh." The blonde held up the little thing. She pulled it apart and found another one inside. "That's some awesome magic."
"Izuku mentioned you can make things out of your body." Usagi picked up the smaller doll. She opened it and there was one more even tinier one. "I thought it was a magic trick at first but he mentioned something about food or something."
"Yes! I can transform the carbs in my body to make any item, so long as I know the physical makeup."
"You're a Food Genie." Star said, mesmerized.
Usagi decided to play along. "Grant us another cool thing Food Genie."
THe other girls started to join in, praising Momo the Food Genie and Momo the Princess.
The poor girl merely looked confused.
"Hey wait." Star suddenly asked and pointed at Momo. "You're really a Princess?"
"I'm not really. My family just has wealth. Everyone calls me that."
"Though she is the most regal out of all of us." The invisible Hagakure cut in. "We've seen her raise her pinky and everything."
Star scratched her head. "Aren't you supposed to do that? That's what my Mom had me study."
Usagi shook her head. "I had to do tea ceremony. Though that was both Dad and Mum."
"Wait, are you both rich girls too?" asked Ochaco.
They looked at each other. Something passed between them before they decided on, "Yeah. Kinda."
"Then do you guys have princess dresses?"
"Back home, I do."
"One or two Kimonos at my Aunt's place. Mum and Dad's orders. Please don't ask me to bring them here. Let me have my shorts and skirts." Usagi said.
"But if we did wanna dress up…" Star waved her wand around like a mesmerizing key to fantasy.
"Let's do it!" Mina and Toru yelled together.
"Alright!" Star immediately brought the wand up. With a wave of it, the girls were given European style dresses. Star in a light blue dress she used during her 13th birthday. Mina and Toru had similar designs but in lightest pink and sea green.
"Nice!" Mina said, giving the dress a once over. "Quick do Yaomomo!"
Star raised the wand but paused to check with the Yaoyorozu girl. She nodded and was given a pure white number with golden accents that left her shoulders bare. She even got a tiara! Everyone was blown away by the golden aura of Princess Yaomomo.
Uraraka and Jirou denied the chance. One because of money cautious reasons and the other because she didn't think it would work for her. Despite the objections of her friends.
At last, Tsuyu was given a dress after some convincing and she cleaned up really well. A mixture of turquoise that came with an elegant little hat and an umbrella.
"Definitely more elegant than me." Usagi complimented. Tsuyu just blushed at the praise.
Off to the side, the guys enjoyed drinks and the very cute dresses on very cute girls.
"Life is good." Mineta commented, a cup of tea in one hand. The collective nodded in agreement.
"Ms. Star's quirk seems quite versatile. Is she interested in Hero work?" Ida asked Marco.
"Oh yeah. She's definitely into fighting and helping others. Before her, uhm, quirk manifested, her parents were way into the self defense stuff so she's been training for it. She even knows how to use a war hammer."
Bakugou gave the blonde chatterbox a considering look.
"And yourself?"
"Quirkless. But I am gonna join her when she goes pro."
"A valiant effort."
"Or maybe it's something else." Kaminari teased with wiggling eyebrows. "Come on bro. Give us the deets."
"What deets?"
"Star or Usagi?"
"Oh. Oh! No. No. Star's my girlfriend."
"He freely admits it!" Kaminari was left in shock.
"You lucky jerk!" Mineta cried with bitter tears.
Now the boys had a chance to tease Marco on his "oh so mature" status. Though he seemed to have an odd understanding of Tokoyami.
"Another denizen of the dark. From long since past." Tokoyami nodded. That was all the bird headed young hero said on the subject.
Marco knew what he meant. His bad boy days were more or less behind him but the memories lived on.
"Oooooh Marco~."
You didn't need to be Marco Diaz to know there was menace in those words. The boys turned to see Star now sitting just an inch away from the Mexican boy with a gleam in her eyes. Out of all of them Bakugou and Todoroki were the quickest to get out of the splash zone.
"Yes, Star…?"
She tapped the wand on him. In a flash, the boy's red hoodie and pants were changed. Now he was in a pinkish ballroom dress. Not only that but his hair now sported a long ponytail.
"The girls wanna meet Princess Turdina~!" His girlfriend shouted in glee.
"Haven't seen that in a while." Usagi said with a chuckle.
The UA girls ooohed.
"It's honestly not bad." Jirou commented.
Mina was in serious mode as she looked the boy in princess clothing over. "It's the ponytail. Definitely the ponytail."
Marco rolled his eyes.
"You uh…," he turned to see the other guys scooching the other side of the couch. Kaminari continued his question. "You doin okay, Marco?"
"Yeah. This isn't the weirdest thing to happen to me. It's not even bad. Helped a lot of girls dressed in this."
"He was a brave and honorable princess that day." Star said in respect. Usagi nodded along, no hint of sarcasm or silliness in her posture. Nothing but respect.
Which was immediately broken when Star waved the wand around and shouted, "SO WHO ELSE WANTS TO BE A PRINCESS!?"
"DO IT AND I'LL EXPLODE EVERYTHING!"
"I don't think that's appropriate right now! And Bakugou don't explode things!"
"I don't think I have the face for it…"
"Lies Todoroki! Lies!"
"I still say Jirou should get a Princess dress."
"Shut it Kaminari."
While everyone was just having a laugh at the silly idea, Mineta was boring a hole in the floor as his mind could not compute. "Can a boy really be best girl…?"
--RGS-------
The good times continued to roll on. For a couple of hours, the kids of two different worlds played and talked and showed off their abilities. There was perhaps a side step about not speaking about Izuku, the one person that connected them.
Maybe the time wasn't right.
Or maybe there was a lack of knowledge to know what to ask about.
But that was about to change. All because Kaminari accidentally bumped into something.
------
"Ouch!" The blonde electric boy yelled as his foot collided with Star's backpack. "The hecks in there?"
Just as he asked that, a spark of his quirk ignited, completely by accident. It went into the backpack and hit something. That caught his eye.
"Better hang this up before someone breaks a toe." He reached for it and picked it up from the bottom. Or what he thought was the bottom.
Turns out the bag was upside down and the zipper was open. The mystery item, a circuit board looking cube, fell out with a thump.
It brought the attention of a few in the party. But especially Usagi.
Her eyes went wide when she saw it fall out and its electric blue power start up. "Oh no."
She rushed out of her seat to catch it and put it away! If there was anything she didn't want, it's deal with Quest Buy merchandise!
She dived for it! Just an inch and she cou-
Three other hands touched it first.
And when Usagi crashed onto it and her hand covered theirs-
The cube suddenly came to life.
An aqua blue gleam traveled all through the item, as if it was a circuit piece being outfitted with energy. To add to the strangeness, it started to float off the ground as a small screen for displaying letters appeared on it.
Everyone was on their feet in an instant.
Star held her wand out at the floating object. "Oh no."
"Oh no." Usagi repeated.
"Oh jeez." Marco finished. "I think that's my bad."
"YOU SHALL NOW PLAY…TRUTH OR PUNISHMENT!!" The Box of Truth Commanded.
Star however, was looking around. She huffed at the state of the pristine yard work and how clean it was. "It's actually a lot cleaner than I thought it would be. With all these Champions teens our age in there, I'd figure they'd be duking it out all day. Maybe at least a coupla ditches."
"Star, it's a school."
"Peach Creek High had a ditch."
"That was from your football plan, which went terribly wrong."
"Oh yeah." She had forgotten that.
Usagi side eyed her. "Or your Mewberty incident."
"Hey, I fixed the lockers. And got rid of the hearts. Shame I couldn't cure Ms.Skullneck though." Star looked a little sad at that.
Marco hugged to his side. "You tried. Heck even tried to hook her up. So…you tried."
"Yep. Good job, Star." Usagi patted her shoulder before walking. "Now let's go see our super kids."
"Yeah!" Star took Marco's hand and practically ran for the front door. They slid open and there was Ochaco standing there, ready for them. Behind her were three more people: Ida, Momo, and Kaminari.
"Welcome!"
"Please be welcome in our humble abode. We have snacks and tea ready for consumption. I am Ida, class president." He said all this while sophisticated hand techniques.
"Cool. Names Usagi Miyamoto. These are my minions, Star and Marco." The white rabbit said first.
Star looked offended as she pushed her cheek against Usagi's. "Hey! I thought I was the leader!"
"And I reject the minion name!"
"Hey, I'm taking point and helping show you guys around!" The tone of her voice made it seem like she was joking but something said she was serious. Serious about messing with them.
"Anyway, let's party!"
----
Things became a little silly and a little hectic after the first greeting.
But once the kids were inside, the fun really began.
For Usagi, it was a real but wild ride. Having grown up with the stories of the 2A heroes the Green Scar told tales of, she wasn't ashamed to say she was a fan.
Creati the Genie was just as nice as she heard. The fact she was able to take food, eat it, and make handy dandy stuff out of her body was still nuts. The three Mewni reps weren't there to see it but she made a new rice cooker and a crown!
Though Usagi wasn't expecting her to be a princess as well.
She made the elegant stuff look so easy.
Ingenium Swiftleg felt like a weird older brother. Helpful and making all those weird hand moves. Marco seemed to be the only one who seemed to be following along the movements.
Usagi narrowed her eyes. Was there some sort of Earth secret code there?
The only crazy meetings happened when she saw him.
"HOLY CRAP! KING EXPLOSION MURDER!"
Bakugou looked confused but pleased to hear someone call him that.
"Yer that Rabbit Deku met?"
"Yup. Hey, is it true your hair becomes spikier every time you shout?"
"The hell? No!"
"What about you being able to scare villains just by growling?"
"Obviously!"
"When has that ever happened?" Kaminari asked Jirou.
Bakugou then looked her up and down. She was short but she seemed confident. "And you? Can you fight?"
Usagi smirked. "Anytime, anywhere. Still gotta beat my minions first."
That was when Bakugou finally noticed that the blond with the heart cheeks was staring at him too. She even looked like she was about to touch his hair. Till the Hoodie kid stopped her.
"Any new friends of Midoriya are pals of mine." And in came the infamous gremlin of the class. Mineta had a rose in his mouth and was wiggling his eyebrows.
"Not interested." Said Usagi.
"Awww, aren't you tiny? But no." said Star.
Flat Out Rejection.
------
The students put out mats on the carpet so that they could do some dancing. While they all cut a little rug, Usagi and Mina broke out the breakdancing.
A true spark of rivalry was made that day.
-----
Star petted the rabbit that Koda brought to show off.
"This is the softest coat I've ever felt. So nice~." She marveled.
Koda smiled indulgently.
Marco was busy looking between the rabbit and Usagi and wondered if this counted as weird. Judging by how the Rabbit Mewnian was looking at the earth rabbit with a considering eye, perhaps it wasn't that bad.
Awkward moment skipped.
Marco did agree that it was the cutest and fluffiest thing he'd petted in a while.
----
"From the East!" Ojiro declared striking an open hand pose. He also had on his martial arts uniform.
"From the West!" Said Marco with a standard fist pose. He too donned the look of a karate man.
"Look! The Sky is Burning Red!" They crossed hands and raised them to the Sky. "Plus Ultra!!"
The guys cheered in manly approval.
----
"Mega Pony Shine!" Star yelled as she used her wand. In a splash of color, a radiant blue manned pony appeared in the room.
The collected squeal of joy from the girls almost broke the glass from the front door and the windows. In a flash they were fawning over the majestic looking horse. Kota was as well.
"The shining beacon of femininity." Tokoyami commented.
"Oh! I can also make Warnicorns!" Star suggested.
"A what?" Asked Mina.
Suddenly another unicorn appeared. One with rainbow teeth and a sinister look in its eyes as it tensed for battle. It narrowed at the sight of the boys.
"Nono. We're good." Usagi spoke up.
The unsettling being was quickly put away.
"Still your quirk is amazing, Ms. Butterfly." Momo commented.
"Ugh. Please no. Call me Star!"
"Star then. It kinda reminds me of my own except more flashy." To demonstrate, the taller girl held out her arm and started making Matryoshka dolls. She did change up the style to make them look like Star though.
"Oooh." The blonde held up the little thing. She pulled it apart and found another one inside. "That's some awesome magic."
"Izuku mentioned you can make things out of your body." Usagi picked up the smaller doll. She opened it and there was one more even tinier one. "I thought it was a magic trick at first but he mentioned something about food or something."
"Yes! I can transform the carbs in my body to make any item, so long as I know the physical makeup."
"You're a Food Genie." Star said, mesmerized.
Usagi decided to play along. "Grant us another cool thing Food Genie."
THe other girls started to join in, praising Momo the Food Genie and Momo the Princess.
The poor girl merely looked confused.
"Hey wait." Star suddenly asked and pointed at Momo. "You're really a Princess?"
"I'm not really. My family just has wealth. Everyone calls me that."
"Though she is the most regal out of all of us." The invisible Hagakure cut in. "We've seen her raise her pinky and everything."
Star scratched her head. "Aren't you supposed to do that? That's what my Mom had me study."
Usagi shook her head. "I had to do tea ceremony. Though that was both Dad and Mum."
"Wait, are you both rich girls too?" asked Ochaco.
They looked at each other. Something passed between them before they decided on, "Yeah. Kinda."
"Then do you guys have princess dresses?"
"Back home, I do."
"One or two Kimonos at my Aunt's place. Mum and Dad's orders. Please don't ask me to bring them here. Let me have my shorts and skirts." Usagi said.
"But if we did wanna dress up…" Star waved her wand around like a mesmerizing key to fantasy.
"Let's do it!" Mina and Toru yelled together.
"Alright!" Star immediately brought the wand up. With a wave of it, the girls were given European style dresses. Star in a light blue dress she used during her 13th birthday. Mina and Toru had similar designs but in lightest pink and sea green.
"Nice!" Mina said, giving the dress a once over. "Quick do Yaomomo!"
Star raised the wand but paused to check with the Yaoyorozu girl. She nodded and was given a pure white number with golden accents that left her shoulders bare. She even got a tiara! Everyone was blown away by the golden aura of Princess Yaomomo.
Uraraka and Jirou denied the chance. One because of money cautious reasons and the other because she didn't think it would work for her. Despite the objections of her friends.
At last, Tsuyu was given a dress after some convincing and she cleaned up really well. A mixture of turquoise that came with an elegant little hat and an umbrella.
"Definitely more elegant than me." Usagi complimented. Tsuyu just blushed at the praise.
Off to the side, the guys enjoyed drinks and the very cute dresses on very cute girls.
"Life is good." Mineta commented, a cup of tea in one hand. The collective nodded in agreement.
"Ms. Star's quirk seems quite versatile. Is she interested in Hero work?" Ida asked Marco.
"Oh yeah. She's definitely into fighting and helping others. Before her, uhm, quirk manifested, her parents were way into the self defense stuff so she's been training for it. She even knows how to use a war hammer."
Bakugou gave the blonde chatterbox a considering look.
"And yourself?"
"Quirkless. But I am gonna join her when she goes pro."
"A valiant effort."
"Or maybe it's something else." Kaminari teased with wiggling eyebrows. "Come on bro. Give us the deets."
"What deets?"
"Star or Usagi?"
"Oh. Oh! No. No. Star's my girlfriend."
"He freely admits it!" Kaminari was left in shock.
"You lucky jerk!" Mineta cried with bitter tears.
Now the boys had a chance to tease Marco on his "oh so mature" status. Though he seemed to have an odd understanding of Tokoyami.
"Another denizen of the dark. From long since past." Tokoyami nodded. That was all the bird headed young hero said on the subject.
Marco knew what he meant. His bad boy days were more or less behind him but the memories lived on.
"Oooooh Marco~."
You didn't need to be Marco Diaz to know there was menace in those words. The boys turned to see Star now sitting just an inch away from the Mexican boy with a gleam in her eyes. Out of all of them Bakugou and Todoroki were the quickest to get out of the splash zone.
"Yes, Star…?"
She tapped the wand on him. In a flash, the boy's red hoodie and pants were changed. Now he was in a pinkish ballroom dress. Not only that but his hair now sported a long ponytail.
"The girls wanna meet Princess Turdina~!" His girlfriend shouted in glee.
"Haven't seen that in a while." Usagi said with a chuckle.
The UA girls ooohed.

Mina was in serious mode as she looked the boy in princess clothing over. "It's the ponytail. Definitely the ponytail."

"Yeah. This isn't the weirdest thing to happen to me. It's not even bad. Helped a lot of girls dressed in this."
"He was a brave and honorable princess that day." Star said in respect. Usagi nodded along, no hint of sarcasm or silliness in her posture. Nothing but respect.
Which was immediately broken when Star waved the wand around and shouted, "SO WHO ELSE WANTS TO BE A PRINCESS!?"
"DO IT AND I'LL EXPLODE EVERYTHING!"
"I don't think that's appropriate right now! And Bakugou don't explode things!"
"I don't think I have the face for it…"
"Lies Todoroki! Lies!"
"I still say Jirou should get a Princess dress."
"Shut it Kaminari."
While everyone was just having a laugh at the silly idea, Mineta was boring a hole in the floor as his mind could not compute. "Can a boy really be best girl…?"

Next time...Truth's Out.

Bloody had been sitting in her cell.
Her Father had protested this since she had done her part for stopping Shigaraki and the Black Hand. Bloody had nearly cried when he vehemently tried to persuade the Rabbit court to let her go.
But for all his good heart, her father had never known her as the monster she was long after he had been taken away.
She let him down gently and told him that she would go willingly.
Something must have broken through to him since he relented. He would still be arguing her case in court and he visited her the very minute visiting hours came up.
It was late but Bloody appreciated the attention all the same.
Visiting hours were done today and she was laying on her bed, letting the time go by. If there was one thing about this high tower prison, it at least gave her enough sunlight to work with. The glow shrinking and changing to moonlight was nice to observe.
Now if only she had better company.
The guards did not speak to her. They feared her and stayed outside the room.
Her meals were placed nearby by a squire who would flee if she glanced his way.
Even if she knew it was coming, it was still hard to deal with.
"It could be worse." Bloody muttered. "Perhaps I could ask Father if I could have knitting material? Or a ball?
"They do usually allow for small toys. Nothing sharp I'm afraid."
The short rabbit didn't flinch but she did tense up. She recognized that voice. She turned her head to look. "What do you want?"
Eclipsa stood in the middle of the room since there weren't any chairs. Her spade laden cheeks creased into a small smile as she took it all in.
"Just appreciating your temporary lodgings. It's a pretty far difference between being crystaled for hundreds of years. Time may have flown by but there's always a feeling you're wasting time." She looked up at the moonlight peeking through. "That looks rather nice."
Bunny didn't say anything and just kept staring.
"Oh the silent treatment?" Eclipsa didn't really mind. "That's a bit mean. I do actually want to wish you well."
"Why?"
"Well as a fellow Queen who went through something similar, I thought I would offer condolences. Trials are quite annoying in my opinion."
"Because it revealed dark secrets that even you didn't know about?"
They both knew what she was referring to.
"Very much so. But there is still a means of getting something useful out of it."
That made Bloody sit up. "What do you mean?"
"My trial revealed the truth of my beloved daughter. And soon I found her again. There must be something you seek as well."
Oh. So that's what she meant. "No. I have no children. I traded that away when I became a vampire. I doubt this new body would allow anything like that now."
"I could-"
"No! No more magic for me." Bloody then sat up. "I appreciate the offer."
Eclipsa nodded. The silence between the two was almost deafening. And really what can be said between two people who were revealed to be sisters recently? Especially in a family that fractured from a long time ago.
"I am sorry about Mina." The former queen finally said.
Bloody tapped down on the anger. Lovberry was still out there but she would be found. She and the dry skinned brat that helped her.
That said, there was something she wondered about.
"Will you speak to Father?" Bloody asked.
"..." The silence was answer enough.
And now what more to do between the two of them? They were sisters by blood and lineage.
But…the bad blood wasn't easily fixed. Mina Loveberry's crimes will forever hang between the two kingdoms. So too would Bloody's revenge and against Cresentia and .
Diplomacy would rise again despite that.
And yet for Bloody and Eclipsa, their own meetings didn't amount to much.
Mina's misdeeds happened under Eclipsa's watch. And there was no guarantee that Bloody 's revenge wouldn't have included Globgor and Meteora. There were chances for things to have become worse between them.
But for now…maybe they can slowly heal.
Eclipsa gave the imprisoned Rabbit Woman a curtsy and said goodbye.
"Farewell Queen Bouncy."
She raised her hand but stopped. "Oh and one more thing about your trial."
"Yeah?"
"If you win, be sure to smile cutely. Izuku was always going on about how smiles can save people. And I'm sure your Father would love to see one on you. It may not be tomorrow but someday."
With a snap of her hand, she disappeared. Bloody was left alone once more.
Tomorrow will be one d
ay closer to her trial. Perhaps she could practice smiling.
One that wasn't so blood thirsty.

This is me, saying we're back on track.
Some melancholy here with hope for the future. If I had time, I would have added a bit more spooky. Maybe next time.
Next time, the Party games end.
Stay tuned.

BOOM!
A small explosion slammed into the cube. Everyone flinched in surprise at the hit and moved away from it as quickly as they could.
Bakugou, however, narrowed his eyes. The smoke cleared and the strange cube was no worse for wear.
"That wasn't a strong hit but it's not even dented." He muttered.
"A little warning next time Bakugou!" Kaminari complained.
Ida had his arms out and legs tensed. If need be, he could evacuate everyone as quickly as possible. "What on earth is that thing!"
"Marco why did you bring that!?"
Oh. That reminded them. Their new friends knew what it was.
The red coat and red handed Marco was waving his hands defensively as he answered. "I was gonna bring it back to Quest Buy! It's been nothing but trouble since Star bought it! Plus she asked me too!"
"I asked that like months ago Marco!"
"We had to deal with Meteora, Hopper, AND the Black Hand! I forgot!" He shouted back.
The two girls paused.
Usagi grumbled. "Ok, that's a good reason. It's been a messy month."
"THE GAME SHALL NOW BEGIN." The party cube announced.
"Ya know, other than the creepy voice, it's kinda neat." Kaminari raised a finger to touch it again but Jirou put it down.
"Let's see if it can take a bigger blast." The resident bomb man was ready for round two.
"Bakugou, do not explode things in the house! For now, it doesn't seem hostile so let's not be reckless and damage property unnecessarily." Ida shouted, performing his Stop Man pose. Thanks to all the attention on him and his words, everyone started to calm down a little.
"So, violent are we?"
Everyone was on guard. No one made that declaration without trying to start a fight.
Suddenly it began to float. Electric blue energy coursed all over it, making the circuit like design come to life. Just before its calm blue changed to blood red!
"Oh god it's gone red! It's pure evil now!" Sero shouted before running towards the door.
He was too late though.
The red energy spread out and all over the room. It even bled through the walls and changed them. Now they looked like the cube. Not just the walls but the floors and the furniture.
Sero tried to go through the doors but couldn't. The knobs completely disappeared and there was no means of unlocking anything. "Guys, we're trapped!"
"I'm on it!"
"Let me help!"
"We'll apologize later!"
Mina, Sato, and Kirishima were up and at the wall. Acid trail and two types of super fists impacted the strange looking wall.
…And did nothing.
"The heck! What is this stuff?!"
"Usagi! How do we stop it!?"
"I don't think we can." She was keeping her eyes on the main cube.
"Todoroki!" Yaoyorozu called out.
" Not a good idea. If this thing can block quirks, it'll leave us in a frozen room and I doubt anyone wants the place chilled," He replied. "Same with a barbecued room."
"A startling reveal." Tokoyami commented. "What should we do?"
The Cube glowed ominously and made a declaration.
" Play the game True or Consequences be on you. The Players shall be:"
The cube spun around before a holographic display shown on its top. It changed four times to show off its players.
"Kaminari Denki."
"Uraraka Ocacho."
"Yuuga Aoyama."
"And Princess Usagi Miyamoto!"
"Princess?" Mina asked. "What, like real royalty?"
"Not the time, Mina!"
"Answer the three questions told to Thee and win the Game! But Lie through your teeth and what is yours, shall be Pain."
"I'm gettin the hell out! Everyone outta my way!" Mineta shouted, a newly obtained hammer in his hand.
"Wait! Wait!" Marco called out, getting the short student to stop. "It's not really THAT dangerous!"
They all looked at him like he was stupid.
"Marco hunny…" Star rebuffed.
"Ok, it can be dangerous but only if you lie about the questions asked. It's pretty much a crazy truth or dare but no dare. All you guys need to do is answer and we go free. Then we'll all promise to never speak of this ever again."
"But why do I have to do this again?" Usagi grumbled. "This is bull-"
"Language." Ida said.
It sounded like a sound plan. But it did leave the four teens with the possibility that embarrassing secrets would be out in the open. Kaminari and Aoyama looked nervous while trying to appear jovial. It was not working.
Ochaco kept a stiff face. She had one or two secretts she'd really like to not think about or get called on. She could already feel Mina's probing stare on her back but at least Midoriya wasn't here.
"Can't we just plug our ears?" Shoto asked.
The whole class blinked. Time came to a halt at the unexpected question.
"If it's important stuff like Marco said, then we don't need to hear it. Yaoyorozu can help with that right?"
The class and visitors just stared at him in silence.
"Hey evil cube, is that cool?" Sato asked.
"That is acceptable."
They sighed in relief.
"Except for the players. They have to hear it."
"Oh come o-"
-------
"Question one."
The four contestants were standing around the cube. Hands erect and ready to strike or run. Around them the rest of Class 2A and their guests stood ready too.
"Who..do…you look up to?"
They almost face faulted.
"Well that's a letdown." Mineta chimed in from the side.
"Hey! We said 'no listening'!" Ochaco shouted.
"It's got a screen to display the question!"
Turns out he was right. There was a screen letting everyone know what was asked.
"Hey wait! Then how do you know what I just said!?"
"Uhhh."
Mineta was looked over. Turns out his earplugs weren't in all the way.
After that little issue was fixed, it was time to answer.
"All Might, duh." Kaminari said.
"Oui. It has to be All Might."
"Mine's still Thirteen."
"The Green Scar."
"Correct." A welcoming little bell chime rang. The first round was over.
Kaminari asked, "Who's the Green Scar? Sounds like a heavy name."
"He's a hero back where I'm from. Super important to my family but not heard of around here." She smirked a little. "He's not a Rabbit but he's got the heart of one."
"Sounds neat. You got any cards with him on it?"
"I'll see about showing them later."
"Question two."
The display boarded flipped through its many many pages for a saucy prompt.
"Who…do you…have a crush on?
SUNNUVA CRAP!!
Ochaco froze in mortal terror. Of all the questions! Of all things that could come up in a stupid truth or dare game!
"Ochaco?" Usagi touched her shoulder.
"I-I'M FINE! TOTALLY!"
"Oh dang." Kaminari gaped. "You actually have a crush?"
"Oh ho ho!" Aoyama now had that knowing twinkle in his eye. My guess was correct!
Ochaco felt like floating away. Now if only she could. Stupid American game!
"ANyway, Moi has no one that makes my heart beat like that. Perhaps in time. Perhaps in time."
"Correct."
The others nodded and said the same thing. Next up…
"Well a guy like me is an appreciator of the ladies and man oh man, there are a lot of them at UA. Like you wouldn't believe…"
"Dude." Usagi deadpanned. The others were also waiting.
THe blonde coughed. His face became red as he tried very hard to not look off to the side, towards a certain someone. "Uhm, we're sure they can't hear us right?"
"They haven't yet." Usagi said.
"Ok then. Ok…" He tried to not look. Again. He failed. "It's Jirou."
"We knew that." Aoyama and Ochaco said.
"WHAT!?"
"That's the cool girl with the ears?" Usagi asked. She got confirmation from the other two. "Not bad, dude."
"Wait! WHen?! How!?"
"Next."
"We're just skipping over me!?"
Ochaco wished the comedy routine went on a little longer. It would have helped give her time to calm her beating heart and the redness in her cheeks.
Was she really going to say it? Out loud?
"I may or may not have had a crush on Star." Usagi suddenly said.
"Used to?" Kaminari looked very interested. Ocacho was thrown off by the sudden confession but she listened.
"It was kinda…awkward. Like a rivalry but we spent time together and I figured out she wasn't as bad as I thought. Marco did help being the point guy trying to get us to talk instead of kicking each other."
"But the flame of love did not bloom?" Asked Aoyama.
Usagi just paused and looked up into space. For a few moments.
"Lots of stuff happened." There was a lot left unsaid there but they figured it would be wrong to pry. "Plus she had it bad for Marco. I even shipped it so…"
That was understandable. And at least they were still friends.
And now, last but not least.
Ochaco sighed. She couldn't really calm down, even while holding her cheeks.
An image of Izuku came to her then. His plain smile and then his excited one.
And that gave her a little courage.
"Deku."
"Correct."
There was a bit of rejoicing. Kaminari had a look of an epiphany suddenly hitting him like a lightning bolt. Aoyama said nothing.
The twinkle in his eye was answer enough.
Usagi however, seemed to be thinking about something. She did pat Ocacho's shoulder and swear herself to secrecy. It was the least she could do.
"Twice you've answered true. Now let's see if three shall spell your doom!"
The four contestants had their game faces on.
"What…is…your relationship…with Izuku Midoriya?"
"We're friends." Said Kaminari.
"Oui."
"Yeah. Obviously."
"..."
They turned to the last contestant. The white Rabbit had a face like she had sucked a lemon.
"Crap." She muttered.
"Usagi?"
The hovering game cube was staring right at her. It knew that she didn't want to speak of this. That would endanger the secret she and her group were keeping from the rest. That was why she didn't tell a lie.
The moment she did, it would win.
Already its tendrils had worked through the red haze. In just a moment it would capture all those foolish teenagers and trap them. No matter how strong they were, it was stronger. It was near indestructible.
It was Magic.
Go on. Lie. Lie so that I can get that kill that was denied me. Truth or Consequences shall have its day! Do it! Lie!!
Usagi took a breath. And-
"Is it a love triangle?" Aoyama asked. "Is there another flower that blooms for Deku?"
"WHAT?!" SHe looked so disgusted. "EWWW! NO! THAT'S MY SUPER GREAT GRAMPA! GROSS!"
…
Silence.
"Oh Come on! "The Game cube wailed as the last correct answer was given. Its main hub flashing green. "This was supposed to be my time! My revenge on you brats! This isn't fair! This isn't FAIR!!"
Unfortunately that was all the time it was given. After the fifth celebratory flash, the personality was shut down. The cube floated in the air. The red energy keeping the teens inside the field changed from the oppressive red to calm blue and was absorbed back into it. Once the energy was gone, the box went dead and fell to the ground.
The group was quiet. THey stared at the cube, waiting to see what other dangers might be in there. Mineta had a hammer ready to break it.
Ching!
ANother compartment opened on the cube. There was a large plate with four slices of cake on it.
A ghostly 'Congratulations' appeared above the prize before evaporating.
"Wait, there was cake in there?" Star asked.
--------RGS--------
The Teachers had arrived on the scene the moment the red prison rose up. THere was a panic that it could have been a villain attack but they were professional and tried what they could to bring down the wall. Once Aizawa's eyes proved useless, they at least narrowed it down to a magical problem.
They called in Izuku immediately for his expertise but it proved to be unnecessary.
The moment he arrived, the magic prison disappeared.
"Huh. Talk about anti-climatic." Present Mic muttered.
The students were gathered in the main hall with their guests. The explanations were easy enough to comprehend and the cube was taken into custody. Right after they took a few more hammers to it of course.
"A truth or consequence game?" Izuku asked. "You couldn't shut it down beforehand?"
"Marco put in batteries and I guess Kaminari is a battery?" Usagi replied with a shrug. "Anyway, this was waaaaay easier than the last time. Even if it went for that stupid crush question."
"Ouch."
"And uh…I had to spill the beans."
"Oh…" That was a pickle.
"But don't worry! Star reminded me of that whole 'lying so hard we believe it thing' so I kinda had to lie and just say I lied. Pretty sure they bought it."
Izuku wasn't as sure. His friends were very smart. And yet, he didn't really mind if they did. He should be the one to tell them though. It was his secret.
But All Might and the Pros did ask him to keep quiet. At least until they had the preparations done for hunting down Shigaraki. He could see the point of that but…time doesn't really wait for people like that.
"So we've all been sworn to secrecy. Sorry Granpa but you're not getting secrets out of me."
Izuku chuckled. "Hehe. I'm not that interested. Secrets are secrets. People will talk about them in their own time."
----RGS----
Oh so she just made up a lie and made it think it was the truth? Neat. Wish I'd thought of that. Also please don't tell Jiro. Please?
Ochaco laid back in her bed. THings had finally calmed down enough and everyone was off to bed. Marco and Star and Usagi apologized but no one really blamed them. Nobody got hurt and they did have a fun time.
Momo did want to learn more about the evil cube but everyone vetoed that plan.
And yet the next day and school were the farthesting thing on her mind. It was what Usagi lied about. Or what she claimed she lied about.
Ochaco got up and went downstairs for something to drink. Everyone was in their rooms so the hallway was quiet at least.
THat is until she got downstairs and saw someone else getting something to drink.
"Hey Bakugou." she called. He was also getting something to drink. Orange juice.
He replied with a "Roundface."
One day she'd get him to say her name.
After getting her glass she was going back up to her room a-
"Hey."
"Hm?"
"That rabbit girl. She said she made up that part about her and Izuku."
"Yes." Not a question. He was just repeating what was said.
"She was lying."
Something she already felt was the case.
"But then what does it mean?" Ochaco asked. "She can't actually be Izuku's granddaughter. That's just silly."
"It's dumb as hell." He agreed. "But that doesn't mean it can't be true."
Ochaco didn't have a response to that. It would have to be something she'll think about. Could she even ask Deku?
Would he tell her the truth?
What even was the truth now?
But at least they had time to think about it. Time to get thoughts in order.
She could do that. She was a Hero.
---RGS----
Elsewhere…
The Next day…
The rumble of the mountain almost made them lose their footing. Collisions the size of houses barely hit them as they use all their strength to evade him. He manages to slam an aggrieved palm into the body of a Black Hand. They hit another one and another, taking three out of commission.
And yet the Decay doesn't stop attacking.
Decayed Hands.
Blood boiling Hands.
Knife wielding Hands.
Magic hands that shrink body parts.
Multiple Hands that try to overwhelm.
They don't bring Gigantomachia down. But he is becoming tired.
"Not long now…," Shigaraki laughed. He jumped on the rampaging giant's arm to score another hit. This battle would be over soon.
And then, he'd get back to crushing everything.
---RGS----
In an alleyway…
One moment things were calm.
The next, a tear opened up in the middle of nothing. Out of the tear flew a small figure donned in a black cloak. She slammed into the ground and laid there.
"Oww!" Siamal groaned. Her hood fell off showing small patches of dirt and what could only be described as rose petals stuck to her face. She coughed a little, spitting up even more petals. "Stupid living flowers."
The Septarian dusted herself off and finally realized something was off.
Nothing had attacked in nearly a minute. Plus the smell didn't smell like charcoal or the screams of far away monsters. She walked down the alleyway and peaked through the opening.
"Whoaaaa…" Her turquoise eyes grew big in wonder.
The colors.
The bright lights.
And the different monsters just walking the streets with mewmans.
"What is this place?"
A small explosion slammed into the cube. Everyone flinched in surprise at the hit and moved away from it as quickly as they could.
Bakugou, however, narrowed his eyes. The smoke cleared and the strange cube was no worse for wear.
"That wasn't a strong hit but it's not even dented." He muttered.
"A little warning next time Bakugou!" Kaminari complained.
Ida had his arms out and legs tensed. If need be, he could evacuate everyone as quickly as possible. "What on earth is that thing!"
"Marco why did you bring that!?"
Oh. That reminded them. Their new friends knew what it was.
The red coat and red handed Marco was waving his hands defensively as he answered. "I was gonna bring it back to Quest Buy! It's been nothing but trouble since Star bought it! Plus she asked me too!"
"I asked that like months ago Marco!"
"We had to deal with Meteora, Hopper, AND the Black Hand! I forgot!" He shouted back.
The two girls paused.
Usagi grumbled. "Ok, that's a good reason. It's been a messy month."
"THE GAME SHALL NOW BEGIN." The party cube announced.
"Ya know, other than the creepy voice, it's kinda neat." Kaminari raised a finger to touch it again but Jirou put it down.
"Let's see if it can take a bigger blast." The resident bomb man was ready for round two.
"Bakugou, do not explode things in the house! For now, it doesn't seem hostile so let's not be reckless and damage property unnecessarily." Ida shouted, performing his Stop Man pose. Thanks to all the attention on him and his words, everyone started to calm down a little.
"So, violent are we?"
Everyone was on guard. No one made that declaration without trying to start a fight.
Suddenly it began to float. Electric blue energy coursed all over it, making the circuit like design come to life. Just before its calm blue changed to blood red!
"Oh god it's gone red! It's pure evil now!" Sero shouted before running towards the door.
He was too late though.
The red energy spread out and all over the room. It even bled through the walls and changed them. Now they looked like the cube. Not just the walls but the floors and the furniture.
Sero tried to go through the doors but couldn't. The knobs completely disappeared and there was no means of unlocking anything. "Guys, we're trapped!"
"I'm on it!"
"Let me help!"
"We'll apologize later!"
Mina, Sato, and Kirishima were up and at the wall. Acid trail and two types of super fists impacted the strange looking wall.
…And did nothing.
"The heck! What is this stuff?!"
"Usagi! How do we stop it!?"
"I don't think we can." She was keeping her eyes on the main cube.
"Todoroki!" Yaoyorozu called out.
" Not a good idea. If this thing can block quirks, it'll leave us in a frozen room and I doubt anyone wants the place chilled," He replied. "Same with a barbecued room."
"A startling reveal." Tokoyami commented. "What should we do?"
The Cube glowed ominously and made a declaration.
" Play the game True or Consequences be on you. The Players shall be:"
The cube spun around before a holographic display shown on its top. It changed four times to show off its players.
"Kaminari Denki."
"Uraraka Ocacho."
"Yuuga Aoyama."
"And Princess Usagi Miyamoto!"
"Princess?" Mina asked. "What, like real royalty?"
"Not the time, Mina!"
"Answer the three questions told to Thee and win the Game! But Lie through your teeth and what is yours, shall be Pain."
"I'm gettin the hell out! Everyone outta my way!" Mineta shouted, a newly obtained hammer in his hand.
"Wait! Wait!" Marco called out, getting the short student to stop. "It's not really THAT dangerous!"
They all looked at him like he was stupid.
"Marco hunny…" Star rebuffed.
"Ok, it can be dangerous but only if you lie about the questions asked. It's pretty much a crazy truth or dare but no dare. All you guys need to do is answer and we go free. Then we'll all promise to never speak of this ever again."
"But why do I have to do this again?" Usagi grumbled. "This is bull-"
"Language." Ida said.
It sounded like a sound plan. But it did leave the four teens with the possibility that embarrassing secrets would be out in the open. Kaminari and Aoyama looked nervous while trying to appear jovial. It was not working.
Ochaco kept a stiff face. She had one or two secretts she'd really like to not think about or get called on. She could already feel Mina's probing stare on her back but at least Midoriya wasn't here.
"Can't we just plug our ears?" Shoto asked.
The whole class blinked. Time came to a halt at the unexpected question.
"If it's important stuff like Marco said, then we don't need to hear it. Yaoyorozu can help with that right?"
The class and visitors just stared at him in silence.
"Hey evil cube, is that cool?" Sato asked.
"That is acceptable."
They sighed in relief.
"Except for the players. They have to hear it."
"Oh come o-"

"The Green Scar."
"Correct." A welcoming little bell chime rang. The first round was over.
Kaminari asked, "Who's the Green Scar? Sounds like a heavy name."
"He's a hero back where I'm from. Super important to my family but not heard of around here." She smirked a little. "He's not a Rabbit but he's got the heart of one."
"Sounds neat. You got any cards with him on it?"
"I'll see about showing them later."

The display boarded flipped through its many many pages for a saucy prompt.
"Who…do you…have a crush on?
SUNNUVA CRAP!!
Ochaco froze in mortal terror. Of all the questions! Of all things that could come up in a stupid truth or dare game!
"Ochaco?" Usagi touched her shoulder.
"I-I'M FINE! TOTALLY!"
"Oh dang." Kaminari gaped. "You actually have a crush?"
"Oh ho ho!" Aoyama now had that knowing twinkle in his eye. My guess was correct!
Ochaco felt like floating away. Now if only she could. Stupid American game!

"What is this place?"
And we are back! This one was hard to do. I tried to make it funny in aspects but I still like it overall.
The reveal had to be downplayed because well, Class 2a had to deal with a malfunctioning toy. Should they take a desperate 'truth' under duress for realsies? Or just accept a screw up happened
That said, a couple may be doubts. Like is Bakugou saw Bloody, his eyebrows may be gettin higher. And Ochaco now is on Usagi's radar. She aint no snitch but she'll maybe get her gramps and Ochaco to hang out. See what happens.
The last part was to put us back on the drama plain. Time for the villains to play.
Stay tuned and stay safe out there.

Izuku was with two women.
With the Princess he bore one Royal child, Eclipsa. Prim and Proper.
With the Country Girl, he and her fucked. They fucked like the rabbits they were. If there wasn't a War, Izuku would've kept fucking his Rabbit Wife until there was an in print in the fucking ground where they fucked.
At least that's my thoughts on him having like 6 fucking kids lmao.

The Monster Carver
The General
Queen of Mewni
Daughter of Skywynne Butterfly and sister of Jushtin Butterfly. On her fourteenth birthday, she was given he Wand and selected to be next Queen. In the building war between Mewnians and Monsters, she decided to summon a Champion to assist her campaign. That Champion was Izuku Midoriya, a Hero in Training from some place called Japan.
Initally she had a low opinion of Izuku but his strength and eagerness to help changed things. She did still think him a wimp for his crying years into their friendship. She was one of the few who bought his Knight and Boy memorabilia. By the age of eighteen, an incident happened between them and it begat a daughter, Eclipsa Butterfly. Solaria figured it out a couple of years later but had found a lover in Alphonse the Worthy.
Afterwards. a monster attack killed her Mother. This drove her war monger tendencies and began the construction of the Solarian Knights.
During her Last campaign, she lost Izuku and gained an enemy in the Green Scar. The similarities in their fighting style incensed her as she thought the monster was mocking her friend. After the founding of the Rabbit Kingdom, she found out they were one in the same and that Jushtin had aided him. She banished Justhin and covered it up with help of the Magic High Commission. With her last remaining friend and disciple, Mina Loveberry, she took the Fight to Izuku at Matching Hills of Jared and Harry.
The area was decimated. The fight ended in a draw. Solaria used the Wand Blade to cut a Butterfly scar in Izuku's chest. In turn, he broke her spine. The MHC rescued both from death but hid Izuku's imprisonment from the Queen. Solaria would live out the rest of her days in regret over her lost friend until the day she died.
If she had met with Vell, perhaps the vigor and hate would lead them to questioning if Izuku was really dead.
The Scar's Lover
First Rabbit Queen
Spiral Leg
A Rabbit Monster born in the disputed territories before Solaria's Reign began to bring Her War Against Monster campaign. Vell's village was the one that Izuku Midoriya discovered destroyed with just her and a few Rabbits left alive. She cried as she tried to attack Izuku in revenge but his kindness won her over.
Later, they met again when Izuku deserted the Butterfly Kingdom and was battling the Solarian Knights under a fake identity. The locals mistook him for a Rabbit Monster, much to Vell's irritation. Still she joined him and others in their band to defeat the Solarian Knights. For nearly a decade, they fought beside each other and grew to love each other. They had a litter of children, Roger the Second the eldest of them. On the eve of Izuku's final Fight with Solaria, they shared one last kiss.
When he didn't return, Vell assumed leadership of the Rabbit Kingdom and allowed the ceasefire between The Butterflies and the Rabbits. The next decade into the Peace almost ended when Mina Loveberry and a surviving Solarian Knight slew the Youngest of Vell and Izuku's children, with Vell giving her life to harm Mina.
Vell would never learn that Izuku was still alive, incased in Crystal. If she had met Solaria before the latter's death, perhaps a much deeper look into Izuku's supposed death would have happened.

Izuku has a type.
"So did you introduce the concept of cosplay, or did Vell just look like that?"
Izuku: You'd be surprised at how many things from our world are copied there. It's kinda of maddening if I think about it for two seconds.
Sometimes I'm always a bit bummed out at this being in the non-NSFW section so I can write an omake where Izuku and Solaria have hot sweaty, and probably drunken, sex that results in Eclipsa.
Not can I wrote a perpetually horny Vell absolutely Milking Izuku Dry.
But this is fun enough.

"-So maybe something to reinforce the shin guards." Izuku explained to Mei Hagakure.
They were in the development studio going over Izuku's costume. He'd gotten lucky that his usual one had managed to fit when he went back to Mewn in it. However, a change up was going to be needed. He couldn't depend on random age ups and downs forever.
"Ahhh. Yeah I can see that. So you're looking for something to dampen the impact on yourself or something with less speed resistance?"
"SOunds good."
"This oughta be neat to do! It'll be a little while before I can get to it since I have other orders though."
"I can wait, Mei. And about the measurements-"
"Oh yeah!" She was suddenly right next to Izuku's face. Much as she usually did when the two talked. Or when she talked to people in general regarding orders.
Izuku did flinch a little but he didn't move back or look away.
"I can handle the adjustments needed for these new measurements you gave me but if there's any issues I need you to let me know!"
"Oh trust me, I will. Wouldn't want to have them rip on me in a fight."
"You don't have to worry about that. You're surprisingly built despite how plain you look." She offhandedly complimented.
Izuku didn't really catch it though.
"Hmm. This is actually not that much taller than you are now, actually." She commented.
Izuku made a face.
Once the business was done, he left with a date for his new clothes and some free time. That is until tomorrow. Tomorrow there will be patrols!
Despite the loss of his spot at the Nighteye Agency, there were other hero agencies looking for new interns. They may be temporary but they got him outside and walking around. Something he was in desperate need of.
He paused to look out the window. The trees were changing, going from green to auburn. Soon it was gonna be the end of the year. Once upon a time it would mean the end of his first year at UA.
Feels like a lifetime ago now. Even before he got taken to Mewni, his school year was insane. Izuku knew that it would entail surpassing All Might and becoming a new symbol of peace.
But then…
White hair and hateful red eyes hidden behind what looked like a Hand prop.
Izuku's fist tightened.
Settle down. He took a breath to get himself under control. He'd been getting antsy lately.
That's because you're wasting precious time. A ghostly voice piped up.
Izuku paused. He spotted a bench nearby and took a seat. Better to be sitting than just standing when he was in a mind conference.
He closed his eyes and concentrated. When he opened them, he was in the dark void of his mind again. The granite table and the chairs were back with each member of One For All sitting in their respective seats, save for All Might.
But that also meant that odd door was here too.
It was still closed and locked. Something he would need to speak to Star about later.
"Let me guess…," Nana started things off. "...Another night of grumbling about going Vigilante?"
"It's also being proactive. With our skills and even the Magic Princesses help, we should be able to find Shigaraki easily. That seeing eye spell-"
"Star's already said no." Izuku spoke up. "She's said that spell only led to trouble for her. If she thinks we're better off, then we are."
"It's also in your daughter's part of the book. And considering how versatile and strong she is-"
"It's part of the darker spells." Izuku narrowed his eyes. "It doesn't matter if we can pay the cost, we're not doing it."
"Let's not. Unicorns and such are nice but my chest still itches from Solaria's blast. ALL our chest itch from it. Not to mention that Toffee guy did a number on that Magic unicorn place when he was mucking things up. Yeah I know Star fixed it up but the way she described it was…ugh." Banjou shuttered.
Toffee's melting and insane ravings was the stuff of nightmares.
"So considering how weird we are, you really wanna add our funky powers to magic?"
"Especially after Mina Loveberry." Yoichi added.
Everyone flinched when the reminder came to them. Mina's fists of fanatical Magic had burned the butterfly scar. They needed something to counter that.
The third user, Bruce, nodded. "Well at least we have a counter with the Princess. She's the only one packing 'good magic' so we need her. Plus her and yer Grankid already have that teamwork thing down."
That was a good point. Izuku nodded to that but made a face.
"You don't want Usagi anywhere near Mina, right Izuku?" He nodded to Nana's question.
"She won't."
Old memories flowed around them. Of a purple haired young woman being brought into a circle of friends. A red Queen saw a strength in the girl and the courage to do what needed to be done. A green Knight saw himself in the girl, someone weak that wanted to be more to be more, especially when they found someone who believed in them.
"We'll make sure she won't."
"Remember Izuku: we can't change the past nor can we control where people's paths will go. Even if the start is similar, that's all it is." The fourth user Hikage Shinomori said, bringing the other man's attention to him.
Izuku nodded but didn't say more.
"We should focus on tactics to secure Mina. After she's dealt with, Shigaraki wll lose a big valuable piece."
A good decision. Mina's strengths were a problem. Perhaps they needed to bring her back to Mewni to level the playing field. There was Rhombulus of course.
"--zuku?"
Someone was calling him.
He blinked and returned to the real world. In front of him-
"Whoa!" He jumped back seeing a pair of luscious skin tight boobs right in front of him. He looked up and saw the smiling face of Midnight the R rated Hero looking down on him.
"Hahaha. Sorry. I didn't even mean to do that!" She waved off his jolt. "I just saw you staring into space with a frown. You alright?"
"Uh, yeah! I'm ok. Sorry Miss Midnight."
"Hehe. Despite being older than me, yer callin me Miss?"
"I uh…I don't know. I mean I'm a teenager again-"
"Lucky duck."
"-plus there's propriety to worry about. I do still think of you and the other Pros as my teachers despite the time gone by. An-"
He got a clap on his shoulder for his blushing mess. "Jeez. Calm down, old man. I was just teasing"
That did not help with his mental image of himself.
"Anyway, I was gonna do some coursework and get some lunch. Mind hanging with me for a bit?"
"I don't mind bu-"
"Great. Come along!" She had him by the shoulder and was bringing him along to a conference room. Midoriya was so startled he just let it happen.
Inside his mind, the vestiges chuckled.
Just like with that Vell woman. Banjou commented. Though he was a bit jealous.
---RGS---
That night…
In the city…
The music was intoxicating. People bounced and moved to the beat, letting inhibitions fall away and just let themselves have fun.
So much like the Bounce Lounge before it shut down. And with less floor spikes. At least that's what her Mother described it. That's where she met her Father and bought him into the Black Hand.
Siamala appreciated the lack of spike. That always sounded like a dumb addition to her. The ones with no wings would be screwed.
So when she discovered this place, Danda Donburi, the young scaly woman did what a young woman would do.
She danced.
Her tail was a bit of an issue but she danced.
"You're a great dancer!" A guy came up and spoke to her over the heavy quick beat going on. He was a lanky teen with beady almost reptilian eyes and short hair.
"I like your eyes!" She replied in kind.
He liked that.
The dance continued on. They got a little closer and considered going to more parties.
This place is amazing! I need to take Lord Spinner here and take it over. I can already see us dancing the night away!
I can't wait!!
----RGS----
"Ugghhh."
"Anything wrong, Knight Spi-"
"Not our codenames or actual names." Spinner said quickly. His eyes darted around to keep an eye out for any heroes on patrol or a cop.
They were in the bad neighborhood areas so the chances of meeting them were high. Not to mention, the more rough customers may try to start something.
Suffice to say, the proclaimed "Knight" was on eggshells.
"But we have gifted you a glamour. None know your true face."
It was true. He was given a normal looking face and managed to keep his red hair. Though the eye bags and the scarf did give off an odd otaku look that just got off a midnight to early afternoon anime watch.
That gave the gecko quirk user mixed feelings.
"But I do understand your frustration a little." This Black hand was a guy with a more square shaped head but still looked undoubtedly human. Not from the same plain as mewnians from what he knew. His name was Dolno. "The call of battle has been stirring in our camp. The need to spread the Lord's will makes one most antsy."
"Not sure about that. I do have a job to do."
"Pray tell?"
"Before I joined Shi-the Boss," and didn't that just make him feel odd to call Shigaraki that. "My goal was to enact the hero Killer's will. Next thing I know I get isekaid and had to fight for my life."
"Such things are common in the realms. I'm almost shocked if it's rarity here."
"It's not that rare."
Memories of certain hate groups made sure he'd never forget that.
Dolno nodded. "Worry not. The time is nigh."
The less said about battling the mountain dog the better.
"Now if you can, please tell me more of this man that brought you to the path of a warrior. He was a part of your group before the Green Scar got him, correct?"
---------
"If I didn't see it myself, I wouldn't have believed it. You really got your hand back." said Giren before he took a small sip of his drink.
Giren was a broker and lawyer-type for the League of Villains. Working with the myth of Shigaraki and Stain being teammates, he managed to amass some clientele to join the burgeoning group in its first iteration.
When the disappearance of Izuku Midoriya happened, he wondered if they were the cause. Since they were underground at the moment he would not receive an answer till now.
Magic was not one he was expecting.
"Yes. All thanks to Izuku Midoriya and his old flame." Compress chuckled under his own disguise. Not a glamour but a dash of makeup and hair dye instead.
He had to keep his skills fresh.
The magician villain nearly reached for his drink with his bandaged but stopped himself. All that training to keep ambidextrous and he was falling into bad habits.
Giren's eyes followed the hidden appendage. Considering how much smaller it was… "The hand was surprising. Kinda creepy though."
"Tell me about it. Healing magic is useful but regrowth has been…disquieting. But I should have it back in days. Perhaps with my quirk in it too."
"So no more robotic hand? Shame. I coulda cut you a deal on a robot punch."
"Well I would like to return the old one. It served me well but it was a little busted."
"Say no more." Giren's phone rang. With a quick pardon, he checked his messages. "Hm. A new client."
"It's good to see business still booming for the young. Our little soiree took so long back there. Years for some. Nearly a decade for our proud leader."
"And yet it's only been a month and change. Guess it's time for me to get back to recruitment eh?"
Compress smirked. "Considering our new friends, we may be up to capacity soon. Speaking of, would you like to join full time?"
"I like you guys but I prefer our arrangement. Besides, I'd be a poor clergyman. Money's the only thing I believe in."
They both laughed.
They talked a little more before deciding to go their separate ways. Plus it was shopping night for the League and Spinner had been chosen to get groceries this time.
Unbeknownst to them, there was another set of eyes watching the bar.
"Subject found. No sign of League agents, just more low level Villains. Should we intercept, Lady Curious?"
"No. Just make note of them in case we do another recruitment drive. Keep to Subject Giren. He'll be meeting our operative soon. Make it quick and quiet."
"Understood."
-----RGS-----
There was a ringing sound coming from somewhere.
Siamala blinked. "What?"
She looked around. The sound was faint but she could still hear it. And it was irritating.
When she followed this guy to his home, she expected some food before she ultimately ditched him after taking what she needed of him. It was a nice little home, save for the dirty clothes.
The dragon-like girl's non-existent ears tried to find where the sound was coming from. She searched the cupboards, the refrigerator, and under the bed. All the places that usually housed interesting things.
"Where the heck is…" She blinked.
Slowly, she figured it out.
She turned her head and finally clicked that it was coming from the guy. He probably wouldn't be answering it, considering his unconscious form. He'd probably be more concerned about the pains across his body.
Siamal patted his pockets and found the device. It was like a mirror but odder. Nothing to place over it to cover the glass.
"Is this a scrying mirror?" She wondered. She put a finger on it and tried to get it to work. It did not and it kept ringing. After three tries, she accidentally swiped it. The screen changed and an interesting D picture turned on. A little box popped up, red stars flashing on it.
"Must be important." She muttered.
Turns out it must be. It gave directions and a missive to go meet with a target. Tomorrow at midday.
Siamal pondered this. This had nothing to do with her and she should just leave before she would have to battle the Knights of this realm. She had a job and a calling to get to.
…Buuuut what if this was a sign?
It looked interesting. Perhaps this was a way to get to an apothecary or informant. If she could find the seedy underbelly, she would be a step closer to finding her lord. THen she could reconnect him with the rest of their army!
She could be a Herald!
Siamala, The Black Herald!
She was so giddy at the idea! She was practically skipping and jogging in place.
"Ooooooh! I'm so excited!!" The Black Hand mage cheered.
"Thank you very much for your help!" She waved to the man she met the night before. "I'll be going now to find my destiny! Maybe we'll see each other again!"
"Oh!" She paused on her way out. "And thanks for your eyes!"
The lanky reptilian quirk man did not reply.
Sometime later, he would be discovered by his next door neighbors. It was from his screaming and cries of being blind.
They were in the development studio going over Izuku's costume. He'd gotten lucky that his usual one had managed to fit when he went back to Mewn in it. However, a change up was going to be needed. He couldn't depend on random age ups and downs forever.

"Ooooooh! I'm so excited!!" The Black Hand mage cheered.
"Thank you very much for your help!" She waved to the man she met the night before. "I'll be going now to find my destiny! Maybe we'll see each other again!"
"Oh!" She paused on her way out. "And thanks for your eyes!"
The lanky reptilian quirk man did not reply.
Sometime later, he would be discovered by his next door neighbors. It was from his screaming and cries of being blind.
Time for a battle! Siamala-chan is off to rock the boat!
The Villains are almost done with their dumb raid challenge. Man are they gonna be surprised to see a member of their new group wreaking havoc. And what will the heroes do with this new menace?
Stay tuned.
