?: and yet that doesn’t change we can’t stop what's coming before it's too late, we have to stack the deck in our and most importantly their favor.
?: I’m hating the fact you’re making sense, it feels like …
?: we’re not mentioning that ever again
?: true enough, well then, time to start this
?: and hope for the best?
?: and hope for the best
?: do the honors then

[System Message: Welcome Everyone, Please Don’t Mind the Blood and Bad Code]
User1: What? I don’t remember adding this
User2: I don’t think father would agree with this
User3: I’ve never heard of this chat app
User4: I don’t know what this is but somehow I do?
User5: Whatever this thing is, it's so cool!
User6: It reminds me of cellphones but never one like this one
User7: I’m very sure I didn’t install this thing
[User: ? has entered your channel - Hello there asshole!]
?: As the system message said, welcome to the chat, I created this (with lots of bloody help) for reasons that don’t concern you. Due to those same reasons, you can’t quit the chat or uninstall the app unless, well, you die, so please, don’t do that. I’ll be moderating the chat as needed but as far you’re concerned, I might as well not exist. Also, don’t let anyone try to look at the code, I don’t want to induce madness into other people. Finally, depending how well this works, there might be functions I’ll add at a later date. And for fucks sake, don’t let ANYONE take your phones!
[User: ? had quit your channel - hopefully the door hit him on the way out]
User3: … That was something
User2: Remembers me of my dad
User4: How?
User2: He does things without explaining much
User5: Well, your dad doesn’t seem like a nice guy
User2: Well, he’s been distant for a while but he isn’t a bad person
User7: I don’t know about that
User3: If you say so
User6: Hey, @User1, you’re very quiet
User1: Sorry! I was just looking at how this chat works, there is even a store but it says its closed for now
User4: A closed store, huh? Well, it seems not even who created this is perfect, what use is a closed store?
User5: Yeah! A closed store is useless!
User3: Well, perhaps it will open later?
User6: Honestly, even if it opened I doubt it would be able to send my order to where I am
User1: Where are you?
User6: … a military base
User1: … oh
User7: Well, that’s very problematic
User3: …
User1: …
User2: …
User5: Anyways! Who are you guys?! I wanna know!
[User: User1 has changed its name to Izuku]
Izuku: Well, I’m Izuku Midoriya, I live in Musutafu, Japan and I’m just a student
User6: Wow, fellow Japanese!
User4: Wait, what is Japan?
User2: How come you don’t know what's Japan? Everyone knows what’s Japan!
User4: Well, I don’t!
User7: Ok, that's not normal, let's complete the introductions before we continue this discussion, ok?
User3: I agree with 7 here
[User: User2 has changed its name to Adrien]
Adrien: I’m Adrien Agreste, I live in Paris and I work as a model for my father
[User: User3 has changed its name to Jaune]
Jaune: My name’s Jaune Arc, I live in the Kingdom of Vale and I’m going to be a huntsman
[User: User4 has changed its name to Hiccup]
Hiccup: My name is Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, I live in Berk and I’m a viking or well, trying to be one, you can call me Hiccup
[User: User5 has changed its name to Naruto]
Naruto: My name is Naruto Uzumaki, I live in Konohagakure and I’m going to be the next Hokage!
[User: User6 has changed its name to Takeru]
Takeru: I’m Takeru Shirogane, I’m currently living in Yokohama Base and I’m a cadet
[User: User7 has changed its name to Moxxie]
Moxxie: And my name is Moxxie Knolastname, I live in hell and I’m an assassin, just call me Moxxie please
Izuku: …
Jaune: I expected many things but I didn’t expect this
Hiccup: I have … so. many. questions
Takeru: You and me both
Naruto: This is so cool!
Moxxie: I know it's not the best of jobs but it pays the bills and hell is hell
Izuku: I can’t agree, killing like that … !
Jaune: I have to agree with Midoriya on this!
Naruto: But assassinations are just a job, ninja do them all the time!
Hiccup: Ninja?
Jaune: Aren’t those just stories?
Midoriya: Not so much, Edgeshot is called The Ninja Hero!
Takeru: And now I’m getting even more confused at this
Adrien: Hey, what about if we explain our homes?
Moxxie: I think that would be a good idea, well thought out Adrien!
Adrien: Eh, no problem, in this case, I’ll start.
Moxxie: Please do and to not interrupt we better wait until everyone is done ok?
Naruto: Sure, I’m sure everything is cool!
Jaune: Ok!
Izuku: I can do that
Hiccup: That should work
Takeru: Easily done
Adrien: As I said I live in Paris, which is the capital of France (insert explanation of IRL history)
Takeru: it is almost basically identical to here but here the BETA, an alien invader, landed on the moon in 1967 starting the War against the BETA on the Moon, they would later land on Earth in 1973 and since then the BETA have taken much of Asia and Europe, it is currently 2001
Hiccup: I don't know what year it is but I live in Berk, a viking village on an island in the middle of nowhere. It is very cold as it always is. We’ve been here for 7 generations but all of our buildings are new due to the pests and while most would have to deal with rats or mosquitoes, we have to deal with dragons. Yes, we’re a stubborn bunch.
Jaune: I currently live in Remnant, Remnant is divided into 4 Kingdoms, Vale (where I live), Atlas, Mistral and Vacuo. However beyond the cities and a few other large towns and villages, the rest of the world is controlled by the Grimm, soulless monsters that attack humans on sight. To fight against the grimm we have huntsmen, they are trained in one of the 4 academies, Beacon (in Vale), Atlas (in Atlas), Haven (in Mistral) and Shade (Vacuo), I’m planning to go to Beacon. There is also Menagerie which is the “faunus country” as some call it, they don’t have an academy and don’t have a kingdom.
Izuku: Here it all started when one baby was born with the ability to radiate light and soon more and more people started to get new abilities. Soon society collapsed as villains, people with quirks that they use for crime rose to prominence and it would continue for several decades giving rise to the Age of Vigilantes as people started to fight against the villains until the current Age of Heroes started when it formalized how heroes would work.
Naruto: Eh … Konoha is a ninja village, led by the Hokage, currently its the 3rd Hokage who leads the village. There is also anbu which are ninjas with masks and many ninja clans like the Uchiha, well, which are all dead with one exception or it was two? There are also the Aburame, Inuzuka, Hyuuga and many others, each habbo their own abilities like the Aburame with their insects and the Inuzuka with their dogs, apparently they can talk with them. Oh , I almost forgot, ninja use chakra to do their jutsus when fighting, it so cool!
Moxxie: In my case, I’m an imp that lives in hell, as in, actual hell. The hierarchy starts with the ruling family at the top, then under them coming the 7 deadly sins, then the ars goetia, then come the overlords, then sinners, following the sinners are the hellborns like succubi and incubi and finally its us the imps and the hellhounds. Hell is also divided in 7 rings, one for each deadly sin. I was born in the greed ring but now I live in the pride ring with my wife.
Takeru: I have so many questions, well more than those I already had
[Update: Library and Store have been opened]
Hiccup: Well, that happened
Izuku: IhavesomanyquestionsIcouldaskyouall!
Naruto: Same here!
Takeru: I think we all have questions for everybody else
Adrien: What if you start Izuku? And from then we continue with Naruto?
Izuku: Ok! In that case, Jaune, you mentioned something going to a Huntsman Academy? How do they work? What are the requisites to enter? What makes Huntsman a Huntsman?
Jaune: Well, you need to know how to fight and use your weapons and well you have to present some papers to present yourself.
Izuku: But, are there no schools that help students to learn how to use their weapon? Also, there is likely an entrance exam.
Jaune: …
Izuku: …
Takeru: Jaune
Jaune: …
Hiccup: Oh gods
Adrien: Jaune
Moxxie: You did not
Izuku: Jaune … please tell me there is nothing wrong going on
Jaune: There’s nothing wrong I swear
Naruto: Liar!
Jaune: How would you know?!
Naruto: I’m good at detecting lies!
Jaune: We’re not even in the same country!
Naruto: I can still smell your lies!
Moxxie: Jaune, what did you do?
Jaune: I did nothing!
Adrien: But aren’t those academies famous? If you want to go there you should know what's needed to enter them including what exams and tests are needed to pass. Information that you seem to not know at all.
Jaune: I do know!
Takeru: Then please, explain to us the requirements in detail.
Jaune: …
Hiccup: You can’t be serious
Naruto: Jaune, what the hell!
Izuku: Jaune, I just went to the library. Did you know that the entrance exam is incredibly dangerous? People have DIED!
Moxxie: Jaune, are you prepared at all for the exam?
Hiccup: have you trained? Like at all?
Izuku: Jaune, do you even have aura?
Jaune: … no … no I don’t
Takeru: Are you insane?!
Hiccup: What were you thinking?! Even we have dragon training classes and we’re vikings!
Naruto: What were you planning on doing, cheating?
Adrien: No, I don’t think he would do that
Takeru: There is no way he would do that, no one is that insane
Jaune: …
Moxxie: You can’t be serious
Izuku: Jaune, how could you? Do you have any respect for yourself?! It is obvious that you don't respect the dreams and work of others but at least you could’ve shown some respect to yourself in this but no, you decided to try to cheat your way in! People are depending that the best enter the academies to be the best huntsman they can be and you are insulting everybody for trying to cheat your way in! I’ve been dreaming to be a hero all of my life and I never ever thought about cheating my way into any hero school!
Adrien: Izuku calm down!
Naruto: I agree with Izuku! I've failed the final ninja exam several times already and yet I’ve never cheated!
[User: Izuku - Has left your channel]
[User: Naruto - Has left your channel]
Jaune: … sorry
Moxxie: Jaune, as much as this is hard to say, Izuku and Naruto do have a point, not only is cheating bad specially in your situation but also it's dangerous for yourself. I’m an assassin for lucifer’s sake, I know how dangerous things can get even with a team alongside you
Hiccup: Same with us vikings, I’m not strong nor the most skilled with weapons and I’m seen as a liability during dragon attacks
Takeru: Jaune, how much training do you have?
Jaune: … I have none, my parents didn’t let me get any training
Izuku: …
Naruto: …
[User: Izuku - Has left your channel]
[User: Naruto - Has left your channel]
Hiccup: You are literally crazy
Jaune: What can I do then?!
Adrien: Train, find someone to train with, I can send you some instructions and tips from my fencing trainer if you want to
Jaune: Well I have a sword and shield so
Adrien: In that case I don’t think fencing will help you much beyond the very basics if at all, sorry
Jaune: … Damn
Takeru: This Aura thing Uzuku mentioned it and the library too, you have to make up for the lost time as best as you can
Jaune: … Ok
Adrien: So, to change the topic, Moxxie, when you mean hell, you mean the palace where dead people end up in?
Moxxie: Yeah, at least, all the sinners end up here
Hiccup: So, why did you end up as an assassin anyways?
Moxxie: I escaped my mafia family, tried to make a music career but failed, got into jail after my at the time boyfriend left me to be captured, managed to escape with help from Blitzo and then he hired me for I.M.P where I met Millie, my wife and since then we’ve been at that job.
Takeru: Is there any specialization when it comes to targets?
Moxxie: Not really, we kill just about everything, even living humans
Hiccup: Wait, you can go to the living world?
Moxxie: We need to use the Grimoire, a special magic book, but we can. It’s also kind of illegal to do so but, we’re assassins already and my boss doesn’t care anyways
Hiccup: … Your life is really … something
Adrien: Yeah, about your dad, has he tried anything?
Moxxie: Thankfully no and I hope it stays that way
Takeru: One can hope and sorry guys but I need to go to sleep, I’m going to have training tomorrow
Adrien: Same with me, I’m going to have a modeling gig tomorrow
Hiccup: And I’m going to need to help at the forge
Moxxie: Sleep well all of you

?: So? … What do you think?
?: I still think you’re making a mistake and it could’ve gone better
?: True but we get what we can, that said, there are also some other people that I want to put into the chat
?: Mmmhhh … do you think this Moxxie will add his wife?
?: Absolutely and there is another person from Remnant I must get into the chat too
?: Joy /s
?: Don’t be like that, we both know I’m taking a risk here, might as well ensure these idiots can survive
?: If you say so but now, you have to face the consequences
?: Indeed … I’m so fucked lmao
?: Indeed you are dear, indeed you are

Sorry if this is too slow but, eh, felt thta I needed a chapter like this and like I said, I have no idea what I'm doing, never said I was good at writing lmao

[User: Izuku - Has entered your channel]
[User: Naruto - Has entered your channel]
Naruto: Freedom!
Izuku: Naruto!
Naruto: Izuku!
Izuku: Did something happen?
Naruto: Nothing really, it's just classes have finally ended so I’m free for the rest of the day!
Izuku: If so, why did you shout freedom then?
Naruto: Because the academy is so boring! Its history this, theory that, math further away, why do I need all that stuff? What I need is to learn jutsus to kick ass!
Izuku: Naruto, if they’re telling you that in the academy its likely because you need to know that to be a ninja
Naruto: But why would I need math for example?
Izuku: Some jutsus might need some kind of additional materials to be used
Naruto: I … had not thought about that
Izuku: Heh … and now its hitting me that I’m in a chat with people from other universes
Naruto: Now that you mention it, yeah, its … ood but also nice having some people to talk to regularly
Izuku: You don’t have any friends?
Naruto: Well, there is Iruka Sensei, The Old Man Hokage, old man Teuchi from Ichiraku Ramen and that one Anbu beyond that? Nobody I could really describe as a friend.
Izuku: Oh
Naruto: Don’t worry, once I’m Hokage, everyone will respect me!
Izuku: You really want to be Hokage that badly?
Naruto: Yes! It’s been my dream since forever and I’ll be Hokage even if I have to stay at the academy for even more years!
Izuku: I get it
Naruto: Really?
Izuku: Yeah, I … well … I’ve always wanted to be a hero, specially like All Might
Naruto: All Might?
Izuku: Yeah, the number 1 hero and the symbol of peace!
Naruto: And you’ll be a hero, believe it!
Izuku: Do you really think so?
Naruto: I do! Believe it!
Izuku: … Thank you Naruto
Naruto: Heh, no problem!
==============================
Jaune was close to giving up, his muscles were straining for all the swings and movements he was doing, his own clothes were drenched in sweat in front of him, the log he had been using as training target. He had to thank the others later for giving him the idea to check the chat’s library, the books and videos about swordsmanship he had found had been helpful but he has simply not had any luck when it came to activating his aura.
However, reading those books and watching the videos (despite them being so boring and technical) had really shown just how little he knew about fighting, his attempts at following the instructions had been a mess at best and completely wrong at worst. There was too much to learn and too little time.
“Ugh, I can’t continue anymore, I’m exhausted” - thought Jaune looking at his practice target in despair before just letting himself collapse into the ground due to how tired he was. There he laid for a minute or two before deciding to seat and look into the chat - “hopefully the others are back”
==============================
Izuku: Is there anyone else here?
Naruto: I don’t think so, they all had work if I remember
Jaune: I’m here
Naruto: Oh
Izuku: Hello Jaune
Jaune: I … I just wanted to say I’m sorry
Naruto: …
Izuku: For what?
Jaune: For, wanting to cheat my way in and not thinking things through
Izuku: I see and and what are you planning to do then?
Jaune: Being a huntsman has been my dream since I was a child, I just can’t throw it away so I’ve decided to get some guides from this chat’s library, see if I can train myself so I can try the exam, try to make up as much as I can before going to Beacon
Izuku: Jaune, if you want to be a Huntsman so much, why didn’t you train?
Jaune: I wanted to but my father didn’t want me to, he was always saying it was too dangerous, that there were more safe careers if I wanted to be a huntsman and I just thought that in Beacon I would be able to learn
Izuku: …
Naruto: …
Jaune: Yeah, the others have said tried to help but, well, there’s little they can do beyond giving some general advice which I’ve been following now
Naruto: So, you’re training now?
Jaune: Yeah, I’m still going to give it a shot
Izuku: I get it Jaune
Jaune: You do?
Izuku: Yeah, I’ve always wanted to be a hero but remember the quirks I mentioned?
Jaune: Yes, those give powers to the heroes, vigilantes and villains, correct?
Izuku: Correct, the thing is that, I’m quirkless and ever since only my mom has supported me in wanting to be a hero, everyone else, just … doesn’t and my mom already has a lot of things to worry over to really help me and I’m graduating soon from my school.
Naruto: I also get it, many of the teachers and the village in general don’t like me, my parents died the day the 9 tails attacked, it's hard but I’m not giving up, I’m gonna graduate from the academy and be a ninja!
Jaune: … Thank you guys for telling me
Naruto: So Jaune, you better train your ass as much as you can and get into Beacon alright!
Jaune: Only if you also get to be a ninja
Naruto: Challenge accepted! Hey Izuku!
Izuku: Yeah?
Naruto: You said you wanted to be a hero, well, get on board!
Izuku: … I’m in!
Jaune: That’s the spirit!
[User: Adrien - Has entered your channel]
Jaune: Hey Adrien!
Adrien: Hi guys, how are you doing?
Jaune: I’ve been training
Naruto: I’m going to my apartment
Izuku: And I’m on the train going home, how are you?
Adrien: The modelling has finally finished for the day so I’m having some free time for the rest of the day
[User: Moxxie - Has entered your channel]
[User: User8 - Has entered your channel]
[User: User8 has changed its name to Millie]
Jaune: What?
Moxxie: Hello everyone!
Millie: So this is that chat you showed me? Nice to meet you everybody!
Moxxie: Yes dear, everyone this is my wife Millie
Jaune: Hello!
Izuku: Nice to meet you
Adrien: A pleasure to meet you
Naruto: Yay! New people! Hi!
Moxxie: Not everyone is here now but that gives us time to read the backlog, there is much thankfully
Izuku: While you do, Adrien, how was your day?
Adrien: Boring but at least the modelling was easy this time
Naruto: Well, at least now you’re free
Millie: Finished catching up and I’ve got to say, good on you three for patching things up, about training, I can give tips to any of you as long as melee weapons are concerned, although axes are my favorites just so you know. If you wanna know about guns, then Mox can help you there. And a final tip? Learn when you have to rest,
[User: Hiccup - Has entered your channel]
Hiccup: Finally! Hello everyone!
Naruto: Hiccup!
Izuku: Lots of work?
Hiccup: Like you wouldn’t believe, I think half of the village just either broke a weapon, a shield or something inside their home
Millie: That must suck
Hiccup: It really doesn’t, working at the forge is one of the few things I can do ok but I didn’t had time for any of my projects sadly
Naruto: Really, like what?
Hiccup: I’m making this bola thrower to shoot down dragons but I’m having problems with giving it enough range to be useful
Adrien: Checking the library might help you, Jaune seems to have found books to help with his training there
Hiccup: I’ll check them out later, I’m must get prepared just in case a dragon raid happens
Millie: Dragons?! Ooohhh tell me more!
Hiccup: Well, they come in very different shapes and sizes, for example the Monstruous Nightmare for example can cover itself on fire while the Gronkle can fire molten rocks but the most dangerous of all is the Night Fury, nobody knows how it looks but its extremely fast and its fire attacks are explosive, not even stone building can resist its attacks, worst of all however is that outside the sounds created by its attacks, its completely silent or silent enough to not be noticed among the other dragons
Naruto: So, almost invisible, fast as fuck and with the most powerful attacks of all the dragons you guys know?
Hiccup: Basically
Izuku: That is … quite dangerous
Jaune: I’m thankful there are no Grimm like those, something like that would play hell for us
Izuku: If I had a video of the night fury, or the dragons in general I could think of something to help your village defend from them
Hiccup: Good luck with that, even if I showed the ideas, I would be laughed out, better don’t waste your time Izuku
Uzuku: But why would they do that?
Adrien: Agreed, it feels counterproductive
Naruto: It is dumb!
Jaune: I have to agree
Hiccup: We’re vikings, and viking solves problems by hitting it and I’m by comparison, a twig, you do the math
Millie: Alright, thats dumb, even in Wrath we accept intelligence as necessary and we also prefer fixing problems by just hitting it
Moxxie: I have an idea! Hiccup, what about if you don’t train like the other vikings?
Hiccup: What do you mean.
Millie: Moxxie, you’re a genius!
Jaune: What, how?
Izuku: I think he means that instead of concentrating on strength, you concentrate on other things like speed, or trickery! Find something you’re good at!
Moxxie: Exactly!
Naruto: Now, ninja already do that but I could ask Iruka-sensei help with that!
[User: Takeru - Has entered your channel]
Jaune: Hey Takeru!
Takeru: Hey guys, I’m going to read the backlog but I’ll join you all once I finish
Jaune: So, you were saying you were good with guns Moxxie?
Moxxie: Yep
Jaune: In that case, what gun would you recommend me to use? I have a sword and shield but most huntsman have a ranged weapon, which I don’t
Moxxie: I see … Do you have any experience with guns at all?
Jaune: Nothing at all
Moxxie: So, first you need something small to use with your shield or with your sword at the same time
Izuku: Also, Jaune, how much do you move?
Jaune: What do you mean Izuku?
Izuku: I mean, some heroes prefer to move around trying to outmaneuver the villains others meanwhile, prefer to use their strength to let the villains come at them
Jaune: … uh? I think I’m more of standing and using my shield for protection?
Moxxie: Well thought Izuku, in that case, Jaune, I suggest you a submachine gun, it gives you decent firepower with your shield, if you had been more mobile I’d suggested a pistol
Jaune: Thanks! I’ll remember it once I can get a gun
Hiccup: Millie, do you have any suggestions on how to get stronger?
Millie: Well, how strong are you now, do you do any physical workout or something?
Izuku: Not very much, sometimes I follow heroes every now and then for my quirk analysis but not much beyond that
Adrien: That sounds more like you have quite the agility and dexterity to do that
Izuku: Not much really? I’m normally left behind
Takeru: And caught up and I’ll say Izuku, I would suggest starting with basic exercises, try to look into how heroes or even just students train to give you an idea what you need to concentrate on, the same goes for you Hiccup, don’t forget that these new phones have that library feature which is not only book but also videos, also don’t forget to rest
Millie: Takeru is right about rest, if you don’t you will get hurt, even I rest
Naruto: So Takeru, what were you doing?
Takeru: I was doing basic training, I’m now part of the 207th Training Unit under UN auspices and, well, there is a lot I have to do beyond training
Naruto: How much?
Takeru: Like a lot, it's hard to explain, and even now I’m still trying to confirm some things
Naruto: Ok
Izuku: Just remember that we’re helping in whatever way we can
Adrien: Agreed
Naruto: You know it
Hiccup: We’ll help no matter how
Jaune: You know it
==============================
Moxxie: What are your thoughts Millie?
Millie: Simply put, we must do whatever we can to help them
Moxxie: You’re surprisingly invested in this
Millie: You read what they’ve posted hon, they’re all still in school and only Takeru and possible Jaune are anywhere near close to be considered adults legally speaking, they’ll need help
Moxxie: I agree. Also, another thing, do we keep this away from Blitzo and Loona?
Millie: I say yes, as much as I hate saying it, Blitz will cause tempers to get higher
==============================
?: That went better than expected
?: By sheer luck, they’re still pissed at you and once they find how to close that chat they’ll do it
?: They’ll have to truth VERY hard then, only the time onion would be able to do it and he ain’t revelling his code so easily
?: Sometimes I believe you think you’re above laws
?: Oh I’m not, but I refuse to just do this the normal way with so many at risk
?: I hope you know what you’re doing
?: I have a semblance of a plan
?: And that is even more terrifying than you having none at all
Notes:
Yes, Millie had joined and she alongside Moxxie are the chat's adults ... could be worse
Chapter 3: Training is boring but needed
Notes:
The nonesense continue, yes I know its kinda slow, sorry
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
Adrien: So … I’ve been thinking about the store, no one has used it yet, right?
Moxxie: I went to see what was in there and while the prices were lower than back at home the truly interesting things were still out of my budget
Millie: Yeah, that blessed axe would’ve been amazing but it cost too much, also, what are you doing up so early dear?
Adrien: I have another modelling session today, apparently they need me extra early
Moxxie: Adrien, are you sure your father is ok?
Adrien: He’s ok, it's just that my mom’s death, in fact, now I have more activities with other people than before
Millie: What do you mean sweetie?
Adrien: Well, before mom died I almost never went out of the mansion, in fact only Felix (my cousin), Chloe and very occasionally Zoe, came to the mansion and Felix only when my aunt visited. After mom died I started modelling, taking fencing classes, chinese classes and other things.
Millie: Sweetie, that's not normal, kids like you should be able to go outside
Adrien: I’ve been trying to but, dad doesn’t want me to
Moxxie: Is he present at all while you’re modelling at least?
Adrien: Ah, sometimes? He’s normally very busy with his designer work
Millie: Adrien …
Adrien: Don’t worry, I’m ok
Millie: If you say so
Adrien: But back to my idea, it seems most of us don’t have much money to buy things from the store but I have the opposite problem, I have a lot of money but the stuff in the store is almost useless? For example, I don’t need an extra-large wheel of camembert for example. So my idea was for me to send you guys money for you to buy stuff you want
Moxxie: … That could work but are you sure?
Millie: I have to agree with Mox, are you sure honey?
Adrien: Yeah I’m sure, I get more money than I normally know what to do with
Moxxie: Wouldn’t your father notice?
Adrien: He might but I’ll come up with excuses
Moxxie: I’m not sure if that’s a good idea but it could work in an emergency
Millie: I agree with Mox, for now keep it as a backup
Adrien: Until I can come up with a good excuse or actual need?
Moxie: Exactly
==============================
Iruka had to admit, when he arrived at class to find Naruto already reading something he had decided to find out exactly was his student reading. If he had to be honest, seeing Naruto be so quiet was unnerving, sure he still didn’t pay any attention to the class but he was not shouting, sleeping or worse making one of his (admittedly creative) pranks. However after Iruka called Naruto to stay for a few more minutes to speak with him, Naruto’s answer had not been what he had been expecting.
“You’re reading about ninja traps?” - asked Iruka to Naruto, the mind of the teacher still trying to process the new information, to which Naruto widely smiled - “yeah! I thought about what I was good with and after giving it a lot of thought I realized it was running away and hiding so I chose to read about traps and how to make and use them!” - said Naruto as he took one of the books he had and opened in one of the bookmarks, the diagram of a complex explosive trap, Iruka for his part looked at the diagram, the trap was complex alright but should the enemy fall into the trap it would most likely be injured to some degree unless they were elite ninja.
After looking at the diagram Iruka then looked at Naruto surprised, it was known that Naruto was a prankster at heart, always managing to perform outrageous feats when he put his energy into it, but that same energy simply made it hard for Naruto to concentrate on the finer “boring” details of what he wanted to learn making things harder on himself - “so Naruto, how is it going?” - asked Iruka, now looking back at Naruto how groaned and put on the face of a kicked puppy, or his best attempt at least - “is so boring, at first I tried to just follow the diagrams but they never worked but the instructions are such a bother to read, sometimes they don’t even make sense, just look at this!” - said Naruto making his frustration plain to see as he basically shoved the instructions to Iruka’s face who dutifully read the instructions taking the book from Naruto and immediately realized why Naruto was having so many issues, not only was the mechanical part of the trap highly technical itself but also it had a fūinjutsu component and Iruka knew for a fact that Naruto didn’t know anything about fūinjutsu.
This created a dilemma for Iruka, supporting Naruto and teaching him the basics of fūinjutsu so he could experiment rewarding his initiative but also seemingly showing preference for Naruto over the rest of his students and opening the village for even more elaborate and harder to deal pranks. After a bit of mental deliberation (while he put on a show that he was reading the book) Iruka finally came to the decision of helping his honorary younger brother and village troublemaker - “Naruto, I think I know what is the problem” - Naruto’s smile iruka decided, was worth more than gold.
==============================
Izuku liked to think he was good at taking precautions while training, sadly he was learning a completely different lesson today as he sat in a bench which was thankfully under the shade of a tree - “I’m exhausted and I’ve not even done a third of what I did yesterday” - thought Izuku with surprise as his body simply refused to let him train, it seemed that this day would be wasted something that made Izuku start to doubt he would be able to enter UA specially since the bullying had gotten worse as it was not only Kacchan and his group but now more students adding their own attacks at different points, immediately after however Izuku shaked his head and dismissed those thoughts - “no, I can’t just give up, I promised the others that I would be the No. 1 hero!” - thought Izuku as he wobbly stood up and started to go home. Today he might’ve not been able to train much but tomorrow? Tomorrow it will be different, as he walked to the train station Izuku soon found something he didn’t expect to.

Takeru: I had forgotten just how frustrating Yuuko-sensei could be to deal with.
Adrien: Hello Takeru, did something happen?
Takeru: Hi Adrien, not much, it's just that Yuuko-sensei can be so coldhearted at times.
Millie: Hello dear, what happened?
Takeru: It's very complicated but I’ve apparently timetraveled
Moxxie: … what?
Adrien: How?
Takeru: I don’t know, but I time traveled back to the past (there is much more to it but I’m just going to explain the problem at hand) so Yuuko-sensei and me reached an agreement that I would help her with Alternative IV (a special project she’s working on to fight against the BETA), so to convince her I told her of an upcoming BETA track on Niigata and you know what she wanted to do? She wanted the attack to happen as it did before instead of trying to change it to check if what I’m saying is the truth
Adrien: Please tell me you convinced her otherwise
Takeru: I tried but I don’t think I managed to convince her and as the leader of Alternative IV while I’m just a cadet I can’t really force her to do anything and if we fail Alternative V goes on and well, it's the end of the world
Adrien: So the stakes are extremely high
Takeru: Exactly
Millie: That sucks
Moxxie: Takeru, you did the best you could, it’ll be up to her now
Takeru: I just wish I could’ve convinced her
Adrien: I can’t say she’s evil but, she really is cold hearted at best
Moxxie: I don’t agree with her either but, her thinking have some rationale behind it with those stakes
Millie: None of us have to like it though
Takeru: I know, I’m just hoping for the best and continuing basic training, it's a good thing I’ve gone through it already
Millie: Lucky you
Takeru: Now to change topic, what were you guys talking about before we arrived?
Adrien: An idea I had to send you guys money so you could use the store since my dad is rich and my allowance is large
Takeru: That is an idea considering the amount of money you’re implying you can use but wouldn’t your father notice?
Moxxie: We said the same thing which is why we left the idea only for emergencies or when he manages to get a convincing story

Naruto: My head!
Jaune: My arms!
Hiccup: My everything
Millie: I take the training is going well, right?
Naruto: Me last
Hiccup: Jaune, could you go first?
Jaune: I’ll explain myself first then, yes the training is going ok but my arms hurt a lot due to all the effort I’m putting
Millie: Have you been resting?
Jaune: Yeah I have but I’ve never did such an effort for so long
Adrien: Look at it the good way, at least now you have a better idea of what kind of training you’re getting into at Beacon Academy
Jaune: I guess?
Takeru: It's very likely that the academy is going to be much harder than now so better use this time to get used to the intensity of training
Jaune: … I hate you’re all making sense
Hiccup: At least you can just train, I’ve got to help at the forge, and then work on my bola thrower and finally train, good thing I finally convinced Gobber to help me train and he gave me a pair of long daggers and a shield, I needed to convince him I was not just going to rush dragons when they raid again
Moxxie: How are you balancing all of that?
Hiccup: Well, I’ve sacrificed some time to work on my bola thrower to train but at least I’m training, Gobber has said I’m very good with the shield
Millie: Everyone starts somewhere Hiccup, with time you’ll manage
Takeru: That’s correct, even I had a rough time the first time I did basic military training
Naruto: Ok my turn. I decided to look into books for making traps and tried some designs. Some worked and some didn’t. Today Iruka-sensei decided to give me some pointers and now I have to learn MATH because many of those traps need ninja seals and those need MATH to make correctly!
Adrien: It seems Izuku was right after all
Millie: The sweetie has a good head over his shoulders
Moxxie: Well Naruto, I hope you learn your lesson, sometimes, even the boring stuff is important
Naruto: Yeah I did
Moxxie: That's a good thing, we have to learn from our mistakes to stop repeating them
Jaune: Don’t we know it
Takeru: Took the words right out my mouth Jaune
Naruto: Hey! Has Izuku posted anything today?
Adrien: No, he has not appeared
Hiccup: Do you think he had any problems?
Moxie: I’m sure he’s ok, must just be homework, he’s going to school after all
[User: Izuku - Has entered your channel]
Izuku: Me an my mom just found a girl looking through my home’s trash
Millie: Sweetie …
Moxxie: Oh snaps
Naruto: Izuku what the hell?!
Adrien: That's not common right?
Izuku: No, it's not common at all and that’s not all, she was apparently hunting for rats too
Hiccup: Ok, That’s nasty, what are you doing now?
Izuku: I’ve called child services while mom is calming her down, she also stinks but that's not surprising
Moxxie: I can see why
Millie: What are you planning to do?
Izuku: Mom wants to bring her inside to clean her up but she’s being very timid and feisty, kind like a scared cat
Jaune: Do you think that's a good idea?
Izuku: We just want to help
Takeru: We know Izuku
Moxxie: Let’s trust your mom for now
Izuku: Ok, I’ll return when all is finished and I read the backlog
Millie: No problem honey, help your mom
Naruto: Good luck Izuku!
Hiccup: Yeah, good luck
Adrien: Take care
[User: Izuku - Has left your channel]
Jaune: Well that happened
Adrien: I hope everything goes right
Hiccup: Me too
Moxxie: Don’t worry, I’m sure Izuku and his mom have everything under control
Takeru: If you’re sure
Naruto: He’ll be ok, believe it!
Millie: Now sweeties, anything else you want to tell to pass time?
Naruto: Hey, what about you tell us about your job?
Jaune: Yeah, like, you’re assassins but hell must work somewhat differently to our worlds
Moxxie: Well, if you guys insist
==============================
?: I can’t believe you’re already pushing your luck already
?: Never said I had self-preservation instincts
?: You even had them to begin with?
?: Yes but when I died they went away
?: I hate I know that context to understand that sentence
?: Anyways, the chat is getting an expansion
?: … That's not everything
?: It is
?: Dear, I know you and no its not
?: Fair enough, I’m planning to make the “phones” also work as dimensional travel devices but its just of theoretical state right now, we all know what the Time Onion needed for US to do that
?: Yes, it took him years and with far more experience that you have
?: Exactly
?: So, what’s actually next then?
?: I was planning to add several people but they’re either not active/sealed away, adding them would be harmful to the members of the chat or simply I just can’t add them yet because I have to take care of some things before that, which is frustrating
?: it seems the multiverse itself has the equivalent of paperwork to deal with
?: Sadly enough, well, beyond that things are going alright
?: Yeah sure
?: Fair
==============================
Jaune: So, I has been browsing around and found something interesting and other things that's terrifying. To start with the first, something called mechashift weapons are used by many huntsmen
Hiccup: What are those?
Jaune: Basically weapons that can transform into other weapons, for example Crocea Mors (my family’s sword and shield which I’m using right now) has a shield mechashift, when collapsed, the shield works as the sword’s scabbard
Hiccup: That's very interesting, I’d look to see the diagrams of their construction
Naruto: I already have some ideas!
Jaune: Me too!
Moxxie: Not to ruin the parade kids but such weapons would have other factors to deal with like the maintenance of the mechshift mechanisms, being less structurally sound and the extra weight of the mechanism
Adrien: But, considering they’re used by huntsmen in the fields, wouldn’t that mean that those problems may not be bad enough to keep them from using them?
Millie: You do have a point Adrien
Moxxie: That’s true …
Takeru: In that case, what were you thinking Jaune?
Jaune: Well, since you guys said that an SMG would work well for me, I was thinking of adding one to Crocea Mors’ shield
Hiccup: The idea has merit but since the shield is already a mechashift wouldn’t adding a mechashift mess with the transformation mechanism?
Takeru: There is also the additional weight to consider
Naruto: And what about building a new weapon from the start? That way you’ll get something made exactly as you want
Jaune: It could work but but I don’t have the money or even someone that might do the job
Adrien: But its an idea you can shelf for later
Jaune: True but what do I do until then
Millie: Sweetie, continue trainings with Crocea Mors, get into Beacon and only if you can, get that SMG, everything else can be worked out while at Beacon
Jaune: Ok, I’ll do that
Moxxie: Before we continue, what was the terrifying thing you discovered
Jaune: Oh, yeah, something called Landing Strategies
Naruto: Landing strategies?
Jaune: basically thank to having aura and semblances, Huntsmen sometimes drop themselves from high altitude without parachutes or anything really, landing strategies are the name at the techniques different huntsmen use to basically, not die due to the fall, normally using their weapons and sometimes their semblances
Takeru: Ok, that’s insane
Jaune: I have no idea what to do since I’ve not been able to awaken my aura
Takeru: That is a big problem
Adrien: I can buy you a parachute if you want me to
Jaune: If I don’t get anything by the exam, I’ll accept the parachute
[User: Izuku - Has entered your channel]
Izuku: Child Services are at home and the girl got terrified and would’ve escaped if I had not caught her. There is a lot still going on but from what I’m hearing she was abused by her parents in some way. Something about her quirk
Moxxie: … Izuku, do you have their home’s address?
Izuku: Ah no sir, sorry, why would you need it?
Moxxie: Just to deal with some shitty parents
Izuku: …
Naruto: Moxxie, I’d like to prank those guys too but I think murder is too much for now
Hiccup: Not that I’m against them paying for that but I agree with Naruto, murder is a bit too much
Moxxie: Alright, no murder
Takeru: Still I hope that girl manages to get free
Izuku: Ok, the discussion continue, they are getting heroes into the investigation, one is Eraserhead the “Erasure Hero” but he’s the only one I managed to hear the name of clearly enough, also, I think the girl is staying with us until the investigation is finished or a new caretaker is found
Adrien: Hopefully those parents will be brought to justice
Moxxie: That's the minimum that should happen to them
Takeru: …
Hiccup: …
Izuku: … Sorry guys but my mom is calling, I’ll likely return tomorrow
Millie: No problem sweetie, good luck
Moxxie: Agreed, do everything you can to help
Takeru: If you need to wind down we’re here to lend some ears
Naruto: You know it Izuku, you can trust us!
Hiccup: No problem, no go an help your mom

Chapter 4: The butterfly flies
Chapter Text
Ruby was not the one for timidity … as long interpersonal relationships were not considered, however when those were considered Ruby tended to isolate herself from others so when a random chat app the she not even know it existed suddenly appeared on her scroll Ruby did the responsible thing and tried to block and erase the app to no avail, after that she left it unused and ignored, only the occasional message appearing in her feed but nothing more until she started to read some things that were strange something about a dragon raid on a place called Berk, something about a girl in Musutafu after her parents did something, other talking about some palace called hell wherever that was but the most concerning was an expected attack on a city called Niigata. Ruby being herself had taken to look in the CCT any information concerning those places but had found nothing, there was no city called Berk, Musutafu, Paris or Niigata in any of the 4 kingdoms or anywhere else for that matter and she had similar luck with registered villages, towns and hamlets.
All of this had caused not only confusion but also curiosity, even worse, it was a curiosity Ruby couldn’t let go and in fact it had gotten so bad that she was struggling to work on Crescent Rose and had even lost a training match because her scroll showed that she had received a message and distracted her for a second which was enough to get defeated. For that reason now Ruby had her scrolls in her hands mentally debating if she should enter or not as the social awkwardness had reared its ugly face, did she really wanted to open herself to potential ridicule or plainly having more people think she’s weird?
“Yes, yes I do”
A simple stray thought and once again a decision was made
==============================
Hiccup: And that is why Snotlout is banned from cooking for as long as he lives
Adrien: …
Moxxie: …
Takeru: I can see why
Millie: Not even Blitzø is that bad in the kitchen
Naruto: I can feel it, the sheer disgust and aftermath
Hiccup: It was so bad not even starving dragons wanted to steal what he cooked
Takeru: You’re kidding me!
Hiccup: I’m not
Adrien: That’s …
Takeru: That’s a crime! All that wasted food!
Hiccup: Worse, he was happy he was banned from cooking because “cooking is just a distraction from dragon fighting”
Moxxie: He’s so wrong …
[User: User10 - Has entered your channel]
Naruto: Wait, is that?
Takeru: That’s 10!
Moxxie: At least we know they’re alive
[User: User10 has changed its name to Ruby]
Ruby: Hi?
Adrien: Hello there
Millie: Hello sweetie, how are you?
Ruby: Confused and worried
Moxxie: About what?
Ruby: Well, while I have not been reading the messages in the app itself, it did show me some specially a grimm attack against a city called Niigata(?) but when I went to search about Niigata in the CCT network I found nothing, no city, town or even registered village and then there have been talks about other places like Berk or Musutafu but also got nothing.
Takeru: And you entered to get answers?
Ruby: Exactly
Hiccup: In that case, its better that you read the backlog but before that, from where are you?
Ruby: Oh, I’m from Vale, Patch specifically
Naruto: Vale as in, the kingdom from Remnant?
Ruby: Yep, from where else I would be
Hiccup: That would be better answered but you reading the backlog, trust us
Adrien: That’s true, it will be easier
Ruby: Ok
Hiccup: That’ll take her a while I think
Adrien: It might depending how fast she can read
Naruto: In any case, anything about Izuku or Jaune? We know what Izuku is dealing with but Jaune normally is here by now
Moxxie: Most likely there has been a development as far Izuku is concerned but with Jaune I have no idea
[User: Jaune has entered your channel]
[User: Izuku has entered your channel]
Jaune: I bring the bad news and I’m fucking angry
Izuku: I’m so mad right now
Moxxie: Oh dear
Adrien: Is everyone alright?
Hiccup: Oh no
Naruto: That doesn’t sound good
Takeru: Shit
Millie: Dears, what happened?
Izuku: I’ll let Jaune explain himself first
Jaune: Ok, its official, my parents know about me training and I can’t use Crocea Mors anymore
Naruto: …
Takeru: What the …?
Hiccup: You can’t be serious, that’s the weapon you’ve been training with!
Millie: How dare they?!
Jaune: I don’t know what to do
Adrien: We can help you
Moxxie: Everyone, first let Jaune say it all out first, then we can try to help
Jaune: I get that they don’t want me dying but it's my dream, why can’t they understand that?! I feel so defeated right now, even if I continue training and awaken my aura, I don’t have any weapon, how …?
Naruto: That’s it, I’m finding a way to get to your home and beat sense into your parents!
Jaune: Please don’t hit my parents but with this, its a real possibility I’ll never get into Beacon after all
Moxxie: Then we’ll find a way to make you a huntsman despite that
Jaune: … Thank you guys
Hiccup: This sucks but I think we’re not done yet
Millie: Izuku, are you alright?
Izuku: Just really angry. It's about Himiko’s case
Takeru: please tell me her parents are going to pay
Izuku: …
Hiccup: No, there’s no way!
Takeru: You’ve got to be kidding me!
Naruto: Oh come on!
Adrien: That can’t be right!
Izuku: Sadly its true, Himiko’s parents are really rich and with a lot of contacts, after the incident became public they denounced her in public saying she had tried to attack them before and that despite their best efforts Himiko was simply too dangerous, it doesn’t help the parents of Saito also spoke against Himiko.
Moxxie: So now if her word against theirs
Izuku: Correct and while that would’ve been workable, Himiko’s parents made an extremely good job covering themselves
Moxxie: And so the entire thing is blocked, I so wish I could pay them a visit and Millie is also agreeing
Hiccup: How’s Himiko taking it?
Izuku: She’s taking it with more calm than I think she should but at least there have not been any issues with Vlad King (a pro hero going by the title of “Blood Hero”) being her guardian due to his quirk.
Moxxie: At least they had enough sense to do that
Naruto: Still, bastards, those two make Himiko’s life a living hell and no one does nothing
Adrien: I wish I could be there to help
Hiccup: You and me both
Jaune: … Damn it all
Takeru: I do have some kind of good news though
Jaune: Oh?
Izuku: I’ll accept anything!
Takeru: The BETA invasion of Niigata has been stopped with little losses, Yuuko-sensei actually changed things!
Naruto: Awesome!
Adrien: That’s some good news alright
Millie: So she isn’t completely heartless after all
Ruby: Well … that was something
Jaune: Hey
Izuku: Hello there
Ruby: I’m sorry for what you guys are going through but Jaune?
Jaune: Yeah?
Ruby: You’re really planning to go to Beacon?
Jaune: Yeah but with all of this …
Naruto: Hey, not giving up!!
Jaune: Not planning too but its
Hiccup: Disheartening, emotionally destroying, soul breaking?
Jaune: Yeah
Izuku: I’m still going to UA no matter what and Jaune, you still can go to Beacon
Jaune: I would need a weapon
Ruby: I can make you one
Hiccup: What?
Jaune: What?
Moxxie: What?
Ruby: I made my own weapon, Crescent Rose, I can make you a new weapon for you!
Jaune: You would¡
Ruby: I may not know you at all but what your parents did sucks and not fair!
Adrien: Wait, you made your own weapon?
Ruby: I did! It's a large scythe that is also a sniper rifle!
Moxxie: Impressive
Hiccup: Indeed, I take it’s one of your mechashift weapons?
Ruby: It is!
Moxxie: I’d like to know what projectiles it fires and is it a bolt-action or semi-automatic?
Hiccup: I’d like to know with what materials you made it
Naruto: Hey, does it have any special abilities or secrets?
Ruby: …
Adrien: Sorry but they do like to talk about weapons, Hiccup is a blacksmith and Moxxie is a “gun connoisseur"
Ruby: … Where have you been all my life?
Millie: It seems we have another weapon nut!
Ruby: I love weapons, they’re so … perfect! They tell you so much about their users, how they fight, preferences in color and style, personality
Moxxie: I know!
Takeru: now now, weapons are cool but I think you guys are exaggerating
Moxxie: I’m not!
Ruby: I’m not!
Adrien: I think I speak for most of us when I say: you are
==============================
Millie: Izuku dear, while the others are discussing things, have you had any luck getting Himiko here?
Izuku: She said she wouñld return to the chat once she had calmed down but …
Millie: We understand dear
Izuku: It’s not fair, there’s a real possibility Himiko’s parents will just remain free!
Millie: I know dear but justice isn’t always effective
Izuku: … I still want to be a hero
Millie: Izuku?
Izuku: It just, Millie, I know you and Moxxie are assassins, Naruto is a ninja and what he has told us ninja are basically mercenaries/soldiers for their village and/or nation, Huntsmen from what Jaune explained are also very similar to mercenaries, its just … I needed to make sure if I …
Millie: Wanted to be a hero after this?
Izuku: Yes and I truly still do
Millie: Izuku, I may be a hellborn and an assassin but that doesn’t mean I’m against you being a hero or want you to be an assassin like myself because of this, you have your dream and you want to achieve it. If anything, the fact you asked yourself if you wanted to be a hero and decided that the answer was yes despite all that shows me that you are going to be the best hero you can be
Izuku: … Thanks Millie, also, Himiko told me that you had Naruto message her, any reason why?
Millie: It was Mox’s idea, Naruto never had parents and his relationship with the rest of his village is tense for most part and yet he continued to have a positive outlook on his life
Izuku: So Moxxie thought Naruto could help Himiko help build a positive outlook on her life too?
Millie: Exactly
Izuku: Well, its been working, Himiko at least likes to chat with him
Millie: Has she said anything about the chat at large after her last message?
Izuku: Only that she will return after she has settled
Millie: Understandable, I hope the best for her
Izuku: me too
Millie: In any case, I’m sure you, your mom, those heroes and Naruto, will be able to help her
Izuku: Thanks Millie
Millie: No problem Izuku
==============================
Adrien was no stranger to loneliness, despite the constant visits from Chloe and his almost constant work Adrien had always been feeling a sort of loneliness since his mother died, those same feelings had not only grown exponentially since he entered the chat, even Gorilla, always hovering close to him and even sometimes talking and giving advice were not enough anymore, well that was not true, it had never been enough but now he truly understood that it wasn’t.
It explained why he was always escaping from his home every now and then, why he was so desperate to have new friends or simply, to go to the same school as Chloe, Collège Françoise Dupont if he was remembering correctly.
“But father isn’t going to let me, he worries too much” - think Adrien as he remains laying on his bed looking at the roof of his room frowning - “however …” - a mischievous smile appears on his face - “what if I don’t give him the option to say no?” - it was a bold plan, a risky one too but compared to what the others were dealing with it was small potatoes, in fact Adrien was sure Naruto would approve the plan wholeheartedly - “you guys are giving me too many ideas” - said Adrien to himself as he stood up and prepared for another escape attempt only that this time, he would prepare it to the last detail, he would have a whole day outside, even if it meant he would be grounded for the next month.
==============================
Naruto walked towards the Hokage tower with a purpose, while his trap making had become exponentially better and his knowledge of seals good enough for him to try to make an explosive seals it was still not good enough to pass the exam so the blonde jinchūriki had gotten an idea, an idea that would need the Hokage’s help.
“Old man, I need your help!” - shouted Naruto as he entered the 3rd Hokage’s office, the old ninja both sighing and chuckling at Naruto’s entrance as he put his papers in order to continue with them after Naruto ended his visit - “Hello Naruto, what exactly do you need?” - asked the Hokage, actually curious to see where this meeting was going to go - “well, I’ve been learning about seals for my traps and I got an idea so I wanted to know, is there a way to have someone teleport using seals?” - answered Naruto causing the 3rd Hokage’s brain to temporarily short circuit, it was a good thing he had a lot of practice keeping his feelings hidden as Hokage because if not Naruto would’ve quickly realized that something was not normal and not without reason, it was not everyday that an academy student unknowingly asked to learn one of the 4th’s personal ninjutsus, but even then Naruto needed an answer - “There is in fact one jutsu that would let you do that” - started Hiruzen making Naruto celebrate - “however, both the creator and the only person to ever learn it later both died before teaching it to anybody else and you would need to be a ninja first to learn it Naruto, it is a very complicated jutsu” - explained the Hokage taking the feeling of victory out of Naruto -”so I can’t learn it?” - asked Naruto dejected - “Naruto, some of the best sealmasters of the village have tried to decode the seal to no avail, if you want to decipher it, you will need to learn both about space-time techniques and about seals, that is not an easy process” - answered the Hokage with complete honesty. Naruto now felt dejected, he knew it would be hard but nothing like that, but he would be damned it he didn’t achieve it - “I never expected it to be that hard, yeah I expected it to be hard but not …” - said Naruto making the Hokage smile - "like that?” - completed the Hokage to which Naruto nodded.
“I’ll tell you something Naruto, if you truly want to learn this jutsu and its seal I can give you a Kunai with the seal for you to study but only after your graduation from the academy. That said I can tell you about the creator of the jutsu and the other ninja that used it much later” - Said Hiruzen to cheer up Naruto which had its intended effect - “Sure, I’d love to know!” - answered Naruto immediately with a smile and so the 3rd Hokage started to tell Naruto about the 2nd and 4th Hokage, the blonde jinchūriki hearing with full attention. Unknown to Naruto, Hiruzen Sarutobi would make an important decision at that very same moment.
==============================
Takeru: So, we’re soon going to have our Combat Evaluation Exams so if I drop out from the chat for several days, you guys know why
Hiccup: Good luck!
Takeru: Thanks, should everything go alright then we’re going to finally start piloting actual (training) TSFs, likely the Type-97 Fubuki
Ruby: I’ve seen the videos of the TSFs you sent, they’re so cool, we don’t have anything like that in Remnant
Takeru: Really, you don’t have mechs?
Ruby: Oh we have, but none that can fly like that
Millie: Interesting, perhaps no one has thought about it?
Moxxie: Or simply, the challenges of designing them are so high it was not considered worth it
Takeru: More likely is the second as TSFs were developed to fight against the BETA under laser class fire
Jaune: I’m so thankful the majority of the Grimm are nowhere near as big as the BETA
Ruby: I have to agree with Jaune, if Grimm were that big, we would be in bigger trouble
Millie: So, Izuku, Hiccup, how is your training going?
Izuku: Well, i’ve had to pause everything due to, you know but I’m going to start going back at it
Hiccup: I’ve been doing ok, Gobber is actually thinking of giving me a short sword if I continue to get better, he says I’m still nowhere near strong to fight dragons but that now at least i’ll do better than just be bait or a distraction
Takeru: Ouch
Ruby: And you bola thrower?
Hiccup: Working on it, I’ve finally built a mechanism strong enough to fire the bola far enough to be useful, now I’ve only got to build it
Moxxie: Those are some good news
Hiccup: Yeah, hopefully it’ll work as well as I hope it will
Takeru: And Moxxie, Millie, how goes you job?
Millie: Not good
Izuku: Really?
Moxxie: Yeah, despite it being, well, literally hell, we have so much competition that I.M.P. is being choked out of the market, too much competition
Millie: Blitzø is looking for a solution but for now, there’s nothing beyond giving good services at slightly cheaper prices and hope it keep us in the market long enough to find a solution
Izuku: I still don’t agree with murder but, it must be stressful
Millie: It is but there’s little we can do as of now
Ruby: Still, I hope things get better
Moxxie: Us too
Takeru: At least things are still salvageable and things are going ok here, wait Yuuko-sensei is here and she wants to talk, I’m off
Ruby: Good luck!

Jaune: That woman still scares me
Millie: not me but I don’t think she can be trusted
Izuku: At least she helped with Niigata
Hiccup: True

Chapter Text
Himiko looked at
Vlad King
Sekijiro Kan as he gave her a bag of blood to drink from, something that even after several days still felt like a fantasy. When she had attacked Saito and relieved her thirst with his blood she had been in ecstasy, finally after months of a constant feeling of starvation, immediately after she had realized what she had done and fled surviving the following days on trash, some food people gave her and random wild animals. Being found by Izuku and Inko had changed everything, now she had a home with someone that actually gave a shit about her wellbeing and didn’t think of her as a monster.
Opening the blood bag she started to drink only to notice that Vlad Kan was looking at his food with a look that would’ve killed anyone if his quirk was different - “Mister Kan, is there something wrong?” - it was a stupid question, there were many things wrong including her parents who had been the source of frustration for the hero for a while now, specially as they were proving themselves very slippery and wel connected, the hero looked up at Himiko and then sighed - “sorry Himiko is that you former parents continue to play fuck and fuck games in the trial and its getting bothersome” - answered Kan. The Hero and his peers had ensured Himiko didn’t end up in jail for underages but at the same time they had no way to bring her parents to justice and that was frustrating them, it seemed that if things didn’t change, the two abusers would end up walking free something that angered Himiko but at the same time something that she had resigned herself to.
“But enough about horrible people” - said Kan, changing the conversation, something Himiko was happy for - “have you thought about the option to go to UA?” - asked the pro hero and teacher to which Himiko nodded very enthusiastically, while they had not been able to bring her parents to justice, the actions of Izuku, Inko and the other pro heroes had lit a fire inside Himiko, she was going to be a hero so she could save people much like she had been saved. Kan, for his part, smiled happily at Himiko’s decision, he may not bring those that harmed the kid in front of him but Kan would be damned if he allowed them to destroy the future of Himiko.
==============================
Himiko: So I’m going to UA
Izuku: Really?!
Himiko: Yeah, my situation sucks but, you showed me how things can change if someone helps and I want to follow that example
Millie: That's a very mature way of seeing things
Himiko: Mr. Kan, said the same thing
Izuku: I can’t wait to see you in the entrance exam
Himiko: Same!
[User: Ruby - Had Entered your channel]
Ruby: Hello chat!
Himiko: Ruby!
Izuku: Hey Ruby!
Ruby: I managed to convince dad to have our vacation trip to Jaune’s town
Himiko: Success achieved!
Millie: How does it feel to finally have the possibility to meet Jaune?
Ruby: I’m so excited and I’ll even have an actual reason to make him his weapon!
Moxxie: I have to admit, the brainstorming was quite chaotic
Ruby: Yep but I can’t just go “hey dad! I’m making a weapon for this guy I met in a chat that randomly appeared in my scroll”
Izuku: Yeah, that would be crazy and counterproductive
Ruby: I still have to thank you for the shield parachute idea Izuku
Izuku: It was nothing
Millie: Simple as Jaune likes it
Ruby: Yep!
Moxxie: I wouldn’t call that shield simple
Ruby: We all agreed to keep the shield’s function as scabbard while also adding the extending sections and giving it cutting edges!
Moxxie: I know but calling it simple is a big misnomer
Ruby: Hey!
Himiko: I prefer the sword more to be honest
Izuku: I have to agree with Himiko, how you managed to make it combo with the shield as both gun and sword was a masterclass on design
Millie: Even Mox was impressed! I’m impressed!
Moxxie: How could I not be impressed?! She perfectly blended the submachine gun and the sword! She even left space to change the submachine gun with an assault rifle and space for these dust things too!
Ruby: Guys please stop, its not THAT good!
Millie: Hiccup was already taking notes and he was making anti-dragon weapons as a side project! It’s that good!
Izuku: I take you’re going to start building it after you meet Jaune?
Ruby: Yes!
Millie: In other news, Izuku, how is your training going?
Izuku: It's been going well! I can now can do actual parkeur although I think I’m better with kicks than with punches I’m also getting a lot of stamina
Himiko: We should train together some day, bet I can catch you!
Izuku: You’ll have to try very hard!
[User: Adrien - Has entered your channel]
Adrien: So … I escaped home and made a friend! Her name is Alya
Moxxie: … So that’s why you were asking Naruto tips for hiding and for Izuku to give you his analysis of underground heroes?
Adrien: Yes, their tips and informations were very useful
Izuku: You know? Of all things you could ues it for I didn’t expect this
Millie: You mentioned you got a friend so I take your escape went well?
Adrien: Yeah, I lasted for 4 hours and I met Alya
Himiko: Due to the name I think she’s a girl, just a few hours of freedom and a ladykiller already?
Adrien: It is not like that!
Millie. Then continue honey
Adrien: Well, I met her when I got to the park nearby and after getting some sweets I basically got lost (not really because I have the online map but still) and basically went to the school i’m planning on going, whether father wants me or not and we met there as she had also come to look at the school, she’s also going to be a new student there, we started to talk about what we expected and from there we talked about random things and now we’re friends
Moxxie: You kinda got lucky Adrien
Adrien: Nathalie and father said the same after I got home, that said we agreed to meet again in a few days so I’m already preparing my new escape
Himiko: Good luck!
Izuku: I’m less sure about it but good luck
Ruby: How good was your disguise by the way?
Adrien: I have a picture
[User: Adrien - Has uploaded: Disguise 1.png]
Millie: Sweetheart you look completely different
Izuku: If I didn’t know it was you I would’ve thought that was another person
Moxxie: HOW?!
Adrien: You can learn a lot from other people when they do your makeup every week
Ruby: And if you add new clothes …
Moxxie: A whole new persona
Himiko: I’m getting ideas!
Millie: Me too!
Moxxie: Now now, calm down everyone
[User: Naruto - Had Entered your channel]
Naruto: SOON
Adrien: Hello Naruto
Izuku: Naruto are you ok?
Himiko: What are you planning Naruto?
Millie: Hey sweetheart!
Moxxie: Naruto?
Ruby: hey Naruto!
Naruto: Sorry but the final exams of the academy are going to be soon and I’m so excited!
Moxxie: So you’re ready?
Naruto: I’m absolutely ready! … Well, except for the clone jutsu, that one is still being a pain but with my seals and the other jutsus I can easily pass!
Millie: That’s good news
Izuku: You can do it!
Himiko: I can’t wait to read about you acing the exam!
Ruby: Show them who’s boss!
Millie: Show ‘em how's it done!
Naruto: I will! Also, just read what you did Adrien, you literally looked like someone else!
Adrien: had it not been for your tips, I would’ve not escaped the mansion like I did!
Naruto: HAHAHA and they said pranking wouldn’t be useful, just like with my traps they’re proved wrong!
Izuku: Are you planning a prank for the day of your graduation exam?
Naruto: You bet!
Himiko: We better get pictures!
Naruto: You bet!
Moxxie: Just make sure to get everything ready, it will be no good if you miss or fail the exam just because of a prank
Naruto: Ok sir
Millie: So Naruto, can you explain to us what you need to do pass the exam?
Ruby: I’m interested too!
Naruto: Sure! Well, it starts with …
==============================
Professor Kouzuki Yuuko, XO of Yokohama Base and the leader and director of Alternative IV sighed at the security footage she was seeing. As much as Takeru had tried, Yuuko had easily discovered that he carried a small electronic device at all times yet when she had asked Yashiro what exactly he was doing with it (believing that Takeru might be selling out information for Alternative V unwillingly), the little psychic had only answered that Alternative V was not part of it and that she didn’t really understand what was going on, she had also said the device was “otherworldly” but beyond that, Yashiro remained silent making it clear that if she wanted an actual explanation, then it was Takeru who needed to give it.
Yuuko didn’t know what to think of the young man, his knowledge about Alternative IV and V was fearsome, his warning about the Invasion of Niigata had been prophetic as had been his thoughts on how to counter the BETA push and yet he was ignorant about how the world he was starting to make ripples in truly worked and was naïve and an idealist to a fault. It would be endearing if she didn’t have to deal with him.
“Yashiro please bring Shirogane here, I need to ask him some questions” -ordered Yuuko as she continued to watch the security footage, the russian psychic soldier just nodding without saying anything and walking out of the lab. Turning off the footage Yuuko waited as she thought, whatever that small device was, it was extremely important for Shirogane if he had not mentioned it at all. Waiting for a few minutes while Shirogane came to her lab Yuuko started to think about what exactly could it be, the description of “otherworldly” had stuck with her, if she was lucky, she might even have a way to finish the 00 Unit or even upgrade the TSFs of A-01.
“You called for me Yuuko-sensei?” - asked Shirogane as he entered the lab with yashiro right behind him, Yuuko turned to face him still in dating on her chair - “I did Shirogane and it's because of something you’ve not told me” - answered Yuuko putting some edge in her voice making Shirogane nervous - “Wha … What do you mean sensei?” - asked Shirogane trying to feign ignorance as he felt ice on his back realizing what Yuuko might be talking about, however his face betrayed the fact that he already knew, for her part Yuuko only extended her right arm with her hand open - “show it to me Shirogane, your face betray your thoughts” - said Yuuko with complete seriousness, a few tense seconds passed by as Shirogane mentally debated what to do until he realized he had no option to take out the strange phone where the chat was in and give it to Yuuko.
“Impressive, so small and light and yet it seems as advanced as our own computers, how does it work?” - said Yuuko in amazement seeing that not only were there accurate displays of the day, time and climate but also other symbols with titles like clock, camara, microphone, configuration and one that said chat. For his part Shirogane just answered the professors question - “its a touch screen, when you touch or swipe the screen it responds depending on what you did” - Yukko then touched the camera symbol for the screen of the phone to change into camera mode - “impressive, is there a way to connect it to a computer?” - then asked Yuuko - “yes there is, on the side there should be a cable you just need to connect said cable to the computer, don’t ask me how the cable is so long it doesn’t make sense for me either” - answered Shirogane.
For her part Yuuko fiddled with the device for a bit until she found what she was looking for and connected the device to the computer only for the latter to suddenly shut down for a few seconds - “what the …?!” - shouted Yuuko surprised - “It has never done that with me!” - shouted Shirogane to excuse himself as Yuuko rushed to another computer to see what was happening. Suddenly the other displays and electronics all shut down and then suddenly a symbol appeared in all screens https://i.imgur.com/1sms7cq.jpg
“I have to say I didn’t expect you to do this so fast professor Kouzuki Yuuko, I must’ve admit that I may’ve underestimated you if only partially” - suddenly said a voice, obviously changed in some way from its original sound - “Who are you?!” - angrily demanded Yuuko to the voice - “You can call me the administrator and yes Takeru, I’m the same one that created the chat, I wish I had not needed to do this but the circumstances required me to have some protocols in place just in case” - answered the voice in a calm and possibly even amused tone - “What is the chat?” - asked Yuuko now looking at Takeru, her face showing her anger.
“Don’t vent your anger in your guinea pig professor, the chat is a multidimensional/trans-reality program which lets the users send written messages, recordings and images to each other and before you think of anything professors, trying to look into the code will be quite literally playing with fire."
“What do you want then” - asked Yuuko unimpressed as she started to check the base’s system to see what was going on.
“Simply put, stop you from making a mistake, professor. The code used for most of the programs inside this … “phone”, would’ve been easily understood by you but that chat, well, the coding for THAT is liable to make even the 00 Unit crash and I¿’d rather keep the BETA from getting the code of the chat too” - asked the Administrator
“Wha … what do you mean?” - asked Takeru surprised and for some reason feeling scared while Yuuko suddenly felt ice on her back - “As the professor can confirm, the 00 Unit must be connected to the BETA Reactor to be purified every now and then, during said connection however the 00 Unit and the Reactor also exchange information, information the Reactor then sends to its other fellows around the world. Normally it wouldn’t be an issue as the BETA would normally not use said information finding it worthless but the chat? If applied correctly it could give them access to other realities and that is something I can’t risk specially if you want Alternative IV to succeed”
“What do you suggest then? You seem to have even greater knowledge about the BETA than ourselves and yet you said nothing for over the months you could’ve contacted Shirogane with this information” - said Yuuko accusing the otherworldly intruder
“Personally I would suggest you try to reverse engineer the more conventional parts of the device, I’m sure you’ll manage something but leave the chat alone and specially away from the 00 Unit. About me not giving away the information I know, simply put, I’m under orders to not give away information unless absolutely required to, it's also why my appearances in the chat have been minimal. The reason why I’m here is because both the professor is that capable and the BETA such a danger”
Both Takeru and Yuuko remained in silence for several seconds as they digested the information just now given to them, for Takeru it was overwhelming but for Yuuko it was both frustrating and exciting and she decided to use it for all its worth - “You said you can only give information only when required? Well then, explain me why exactly the 00 Unit giving the code to the BETA would be so dangerous because I don’t see any reason why it would be so”
“... you’re a devious woman professor but simply put, because it would make the BETA to adapt, right now, the BETA are at the cusp of understanding what the concept of warfare is, the code, the code would kickstart a greater more dangerous adaptation and given enough time make them a danger to other realities” - answered the Administrator.
“Wait, you’re telling us that for the BETA this was never a war?” - asked Takeru - “that would explain so much, why the BETA tactics are so simplistic, why they are so predictable, why our countermeasures are so effective, the BETA have been working on automatic all this time but if pushed enough” - continued Yuuko - “then they’ll change” - finished Takeru finally understanding the gravity of the situation.
“As for how I learned about the 00 Unit, causality information is very distinguishable when you know what to search for after that I investigated more and, well, I discovered the information exchange between the hives and the BETA, the rest was just to see what exactly the BETA responded to the 00 Unit” - explained the ADministrator - “Professor, I’ll give you your own device and access to the chat, use it well. Now I must go, I’m already pushing how much I can directly interact in this way"
And with that the electronics of the lab all shut down for a few seconds before they reactivated as if nothing had happened. The only change inside the lab being that now there was a second device at the side of Takeru’s own”
==============================
?: You’ve given them information that they didn’t know
?: It was either that or unleash another multidimensional threat, the BETA aren’t to be underestimated
?: I still find the fact you know about their worlds interesting
?: I had to make my research
?: I’m more surprised you didn’t break anything while at it
?: I agree, I agree and yet, there is still a lot more I don’t know

Kouzuki: He was not lying
Naruto: Hey Takeru, who's the new member?
Moxxie: Hello Takeru you’re late
Takeru: A lot happened but this is Yuuko-sensei, she was added to the chat after a … long discussion
Moxxie: What happened?
Takeru: Well, she discovered my phone and wanted to interrogate me about it and then, well, we “met”(?) the administrator and creator of the chat
Millie: Oh
Izuku: But he hasn’t appeared here since the very start!
Takeru: I know but apparently Yuuko-sensei connecting my phone into her computer was enough to activate a hidden security protocol he put in place and well, he told us a lot
[User: ? - Has entered your channel]
[User: ? has changed its name to Administrator]
Administrator: I know how she is, I couldn’t risk it, especially now, that said, you can add users as much as you want but I’ll block someone if I think it's too dangerous or counterproductive. Also, the chat can run the TSF simulator program just in case that you all need that for some reason.
[User: Administrator - Has quit your channel]
Adrien: It seems you’ve been busy Takeru
Takeru: You’ve got no idea, specially with the training with the Fubukis now going at full steam
Ruby: OOOHHH IwannatryIwannatryIwannatryIwannatryIwannatryIwannatry
Himiko: Calm down Ruby
Kouzuki: This is fascinating, also Takeru. While I’m not happy that you’ve given everyone here information about Alternatives IV and V, this shop is good enough to let you get away with it this time. I’ve got funds to spare. Also, I have to admit, all things considering, some of you kids have a good eye for weapon design and creativity in general, too bad I can’t recruit you’ll for Alternative IV
Moxxie: Uhuh
Kouzuki: We’ve a doubter here it seems
Moxxie: Let’s just say I don’t trust the type of people that you are
Kouzuki: An intelligent doubter then, in any case, I’lll go back to my work, I still should get something out of this
Takeru: Sensei before you disconnect I want to talk about an idea I just had and I have a question
Kokuzuki: Then write
Takeru: Well, back at my home there was a mecha fighting videogame called Valgern-On that had its control systems almost identical to those of TSFs only that was less finicky and more user-friendly.
Kouzuki: Interesting, what else?
Takeru: Well there were another two things that were important, move cancelling and combos. Move-cancelling was that you could cancel automatic sequences to react to sudden actions while combos were the results of different sequences of moves, different sequences got different results.
Kouzuki: Mmmhhh the idea has merit although there might be some issues, I’ll see what I can do. And what was your question?
Takeru: The connection between the 00 Unit and the reactor
Kouzuki: … I see … that would be better explained face to face Shirogane
[User: Kouzuki - Has quit your channel]
Takeru: …
Naruto: Is she always like that?
Takeru: Yes
Adrien: I’m in a completely different reality and I still felt like I was in potential danger
Takeru: She can be worse in person but she’s doing her best to save humanity from the BETA
Moxxie: At least there’s that
Millie: Well at least she seems to be a workable woman
[User: Hiccup - Has entered your channel]
Hiccup: Hello everyone, there’s currently a dragon raid going on so … yeah
Moxxie: Non offense but why’re you here then?!
Hiccup: I wanted to help but was shoved back into the forge so I’m keeping it safe just in case
Naruto: Let me guess, you’re not a mountain of muscles or as skilled as the others?
Hiccup: Basically, while I’ve gotten better I still carry the stigma of several years behind me, at least Gobber now trusts me to keep the forge well defended which is something
Himiko: That sucks
Hiccup: It does but it gives me some peace, the forge is completely made up of stone and only the rook is flammable unlike the other houses and its also far away from the most raided parts of Berk so its rarely attacked
Ruby: Did you manage to use your bola thrower?
Hiccup: Tried to but Gobber blocked me before he went to fight the dragons, I’m going to read the backlog now post if something happens
Takeru: Same, I wanna know what happened today
Izuku: Well, today seems to have been hectic
Adrien: I had fun until I got caught
Moxxie: Honestly, I’m surprised more is not happening
Hiccup: Yeah, this is being a surprisingly calm raid, not even a Terrible Terror has come close to the forge
Izuku: Same at school, nothing much has happened but we’re close to graduating
Ruby: I still have 2 more years before I can go to Beacon but until then I’ll ace the combat school!
Adrien: Thats the spirit
Himiko: Adrien, you has mentioned that you want to go to a normal school but your father doesn’t let you
Adrien: Yes
Himiko: Do you have a plan or are you going to try to convince your father?
Adrien: I was planning on trying to convince him but with this recent escape I’m going to use my Plan B
Millie: What is it honey?
Adrien: My friend Chloe is the mayor’s daughter and its very insistent when she wants to while her father can’t say no to her
Moxxie: So you're going to tell her that you want to go to her school and she’s going to pressure her father into letting them accept you
Adrien: Correct
Takeru: You’re devious when you want to
Adrien: You guys taught me well
Izuku: Well, I can’t argue with that
Takeru: Neither me
Hiccup: Or me either
Ruby: If it works out, what's the problem?
Moxxie: Well, beyond the legal ones, although Adrien should be covered from those
Hiccup: The dragons left I’ll be going out, to help
Naruto: Good luck Hiccup
Izuku: Yeah, good luck
Hiccup: Considering the dragons are gone, there shouldn’t be any problem

Chapter 6: On the edge of reality
Chapter Text
Millie: Alright sweethearts, roll call because this day is going to be very busy for everyone here one way or another!
Izuku: Present and ready for my final exam!
Adrien: Present and ready to make my escape to the school today!
Jaune: I’m ready, I’ll be training back at home as always until its time to meet Ruby
Hiccup: Present, thankfully today it shaping up to be a very boring day and hopefully, the night will be the same
Naruto: I’m ready for my exam today although the clone jutsu may be problematic
Takeru: Here, we’re continuing to work with the new OS with me as the test pilot as you know, while Yuuko-sensei continues to reverse engineer the tech of the phones
Moxxie: Hello everyone, today we got lucky and got an assassination mission, although it will be only Millie and me as Blitzø says he has found something to keep the company afloat
Millie: What dear Moxxie said!
Himiko: I’m here and having my final test today!
Ruby: Reporting for chat and I’m 1 hour away from Jaune’s village!
Kouzuki: The reverse engineering of this device has been a complete treasure not only for the development of the new OS which I’m calling XM3 but also to help with the 00 Unit specially about blocking the BETA Reactor from getting information out of it
Izuku: I’m still surprised you guys built your base right on the hive itself
Himiko: I’m more worried than surprised, what if the BETA get to the base?
Kouzuki: We have several regiments of TSFs, armor, artillery and infantry, unless something catastrophic happens there should be no issue
Izuku: If you’re sure?
Moxxie: Now lets not worry about something we can’t control
Takeru: Also, Yokohama base is behind 3 other defense lines, any attack from Sadogashima Hive will have to go through them before getting to the base
Hiccup: I’m pretty sure everyone in Berk would love the village being so well defended, I definitively would
Jaune: So, Naruto, what's the hardest part of the exam?
Naruto: Its the clone jutsu, its the only thing that has kept me from graduating all these years, everything else its a piece of cake
Adrien: Good luck with it, I’m preparing for my escape today I can’t wait to meet Alya again
Ruby: Good luck!
Naruto: Speaking of her, when are you adding her to the chat?
Adrien: Well, I’m kind of waiting to get to school to get her into the chat, a small surprise for her
Jaune: Nice!
Himiko: Nice!
Hiccup: Alright, I got to go to the forge see you later guys!
Moxxie: Same with us, we need to go now
Millie: Have a nice day everyone!
Takeru: I think its a good time for all of us to get to our own things
Izuku: Good idea
Ruby: See you in less than an hour Jaune!
Jaune: I’ll be waiting!
==============================
Adrien almost wanted to curse as he made his escape towards Collège Françoise Dupont, normally when escaping he would’ve been using a disguise that made him look like a completely different person but that was not a possibility here as he needed to be recognized by the school’s faculty and his classmates. Still, his other clothes were good enough as they had bought him enough time to get to the school without it being an actual chase.
As he continued to run he then noticed him, an old man was on the floor, his cane out of reach and struggling to get it back. Not thinking about the consequences ADrien rushes to the old man and kneels to pick up his cane to give it to him - “sir, here’s your cane” - said Adrien as he presented the object to the old man who looked at him in surprise before smiling with gratitude and grabbing it, ADrien helping the old man to stand up - “thank you young man” - said the old man smiling before he started to walk towards where he wanted to go. At this moment Adrien noticed the car with Nathalie and his personal bodyguard The Gorilla, coming towards the school, not wasting time Adrien rushed into the building.
“Close but I made it!” - thought happily the young model as he walked towards his classroom, but not before sending a single message into the chat “Made it into the school”.
==============================
Naruto was bored out of his mind, the exam had been as easy as he remembered it being, even more now that he was on his 3rd attempt at it.
Theory? Passable.
Taijutsu? More than good enough.
Henge? The sexy jutsu had worked better than he could possibly imagine considering the nose bleeding from all the teachers.
Substitution Jutsu? He had it mastered to a level that frightened some people.
Bunshin or Clone technique? It was still his bane though, despite the training of chakra control that came from his fūinjutsu training for his traps he still struggled to do it. He had managed it once but he was incredibly inconsistent with it and now it depended on that same jutsu - “stupid Bunshin” - though Naruto as he waited for his turn finally he was called.
“Naruto, it your turn now” - announced Iruka as another ninja hopeful walked out of the room, walking in himself Naruto stood in front of Iruka and the other teachers - “Naruto, to pass this exam you’ll need to perform the Bunshin jutsu in front of us, do it when you’re ready” - announced Iruka. Naruto immediately started to control his chakra, trying his best to make sure the clone jutsu worked as he needed it and soon he did his attempt - “Bunshin no Jutsu!” smoke filling the room before the result was plain to see - “FUCK!” - shouted the blonde jinchūriki as he discovered that his jutsu had failed to work - “sorry Naruto but this means you failed the exam, I’m sorry” - announced Iruka his face showing that he didn’t like the result either. Naruto for his part just nodded and walked out not bothering to shout or make a scene, he knew for a fact that Bunshin was unreliable but it still hurt.
Not bothering to wait for the exams to end, Naruto rushed to his favorite training grounds, even if he couldn’t do Bunshin, he could finally perfect the making of explosive tags and his sealing scrolls.
==============================
Ruby sighed as she finally managed to get away from her father and her sister, she loved them to bits but she also wanted to do her own things damn it. Now as she walked through the town she sent a message to Jaune saying she was going to the town’s blacksmith, she wasn’t planning to enter it but it was the perfect place to meet. As she walked Ruby couldn’t help but to find the place surprisingly cheerful, most towns tended to be open to visitors, but Jaune’s town were seemingly ready to adopt people by comparison. As she reached the blacksmith her scroll buzzed and Ruby immediately went to see why it was to find Jaune’s message saying he was going towards the blacksmith.
Ruby smiled and almost vibrated in anticipation, finally she would be able to meet with someone on the chat,even if that someone was just Jaune. Now there was nothing wrong or bad with that, but compared to Izuku, Naruto, Hiccup or even Adrien, meeting Jaune was downright normal, odds were that they would’ve met in Beacon, although he would’ve been on his 3rd year while she was just on her first.
As she waited for Jaune, the young reaper looked around waiting for her friend to appear, several minutes went by until she finally spotted him, a small chest plate, and pauldrones over a hoodie, jeans and blonde hair, yeah that was Jaune alright. “Jaune!” - called out Ruby as she waved her right arm - “Ruby!” - shouted out Jaune when he noticed Ruby and rushed towards her both hugging once they on reach.
“Wow, you’re tall” - commented Ruby after the hug ended making Jaune fluster a bit - “I’m not that tall” - answered Jaune making Ruby laugh. Now that they were together, it was time to get to planning .
==============================
Hiccup was sweating in the forge as he worked in the blade of a sword, but not just any sword, his own sword, Gobber had announced that he considered Hiccup now skilled enough to get a true weapon and the young viking had pushed to be able to make his own weapon to which Gobber had agreed to and so now Hiccup was working on his own sword. The sword was as simple as it was easy to make, it was a single-handed sword but one that could be used with both hands if needed although a bit short for that second style of fighting.
As he continued to hammer the blade Hiccup couldn’t help but to think just how peaceful the day was being, and it worried him. In his experience calm days were the most likely to end in a dragon attack by night which meant one thing, the night fury might actually make an appearance tonight. Nobody had ever caught the thing, in fact, no one even knew how it looked with its black scales, speed and penchant to remain flying, it was also one of the few dragons that attacked berk and didn’t need to get physical to destroy a stone structure.
And as far as Hiccup was concerned, it was his target, he had built the bola thrower with the expectation that it would be able to catch any dragon, even the elusive nightfury he just needed time … and most of the village looking elsewhere. That last part made Hiccup sigh in frustration, even with his additional skills, he was still, the physically weakest member of his age bracket and most of the village still saw him as a pest more than anything else, but at the end it didn’t matter, once he shot down the nightfury, he would be respected by everyone.
“Well enough daydreaming Hiccup, you still have to finish this sword” - thought Hiccup to himself as he finished hammering and put the red hot steel back into the blazing oven, courtesy of the chat’s shop - ”and well, it not like you don’t have friends like before, the other will help me after all no matter what” - thought Hiccup subconsciously smiling a bit. The chat had been a blessing after all, finally people that not only didn’t criticize him for not being a moving mountain of muscle but also one that were more than happy to discuss the technical details of his work as a blacksmith.
==============================
Moxie and Millie were bored, their target (and its friends) was supposed to appear at a meeting in a bar and it had yet to appear and worse they were several hours late. It was this which made Moxxie nervous - “Millie, I’m starting to think this is a trap” - Moxie commented in a low voice as he and Millie sat on a small table for two in one of the corners, the noise inside the bar covering his voice so that only his wife heard him, Millie for her part wasn’t entirely convinced - “I know what you mean Moxx but we need to do this job or I.M.P. will be forced to close down” - Millie said to her husband, grabbing his hands to help calm him down.
As the hours continued ticking by the bar started to empty out but still leaving several people in, armed people as both Moxxie and Millie started to notice, suddenly the target and his friends appeared, armed to the teeth with rifles, shotguns and submachine guns before pointed them at the imps and sins inside the bar and opening fire. Moxie and Millie immediately kicked their table to get some cover before the bullets started flying.
==============================
Himiko: Wait, you failed the exam?
Naruto: Yeah, out of all the time Bunshin didn’t work it was then but that's not the important part
Himiko: Then what is the important part?
Naruto: Mizuki sensei is being shifty
Himiko: What do you mean?
Naruto: After a few hours the exams finished he appeared on the training grounds I use to test my traps and said there was a way for me to graduate
Himiko: … Ok, I get what you mean, what exactly did he said
Naruto: He said that I needed to get the Scroll of Seals because if I learn one of the Jutsus inside, he will pass me
Himiko: Yeah, that if shifty as hell, what are you planning to do?
Naruto: Honestly, I was planning on getting the scroll so I could capture Mizuki sensei … and because I do want to learn something from the scroll, there must be some very cool jutsus inside
Himiko: Naruto … what the hell?! That is the craziest idea you could’ve gotten
Naruto: I know, thats why I’m telling you, in fact, I wanted to see if the other were here too but
Himiko: Well, we can try to get them. @Everyone Naruto needs your help
[User: Ruby - Has entered your channel]
[User: Jaune - Has entered your channel]
[User: Adrien - Has entered your channel]
[User: Hiccup - Has entered your channel]
Ruby: Himiko, you called us, is Naruto ok?
Adrien: Yeah, kind of worried here
Himiko: Naruto is ok but there is a situation, just read the backlog
Hiccup: … Ok, Naruto, what in the name of Loki were you thinking, do you have any idea how many things could go wrong?!
Naruto: I know, I know
Ruby: But we can’t let Mizuki get away with the trick
Jaune: That would be hard, Mizuki could easily say he was trying to help Naruto
Hiccup: Naruto isn’t even a Genin though, his teacher sending him to get a scroll that is under lock would be a bad look
Himiko: Naruto, do you have anyone you can tell about this?
Naruto: Well, there is the old man Hokage and Iruka sensei but Iruka sensei and Mizuki sensei are friends
Ruby: Go to the old man then
Adrien: It's your best option now
Naruto: Alright wish me luck
[User: Naruto - Has quit your channel]
Hiccup: Why does this stuff keep happening to us?
Himiko: Your guess is as good as mine
Ruby: Well, now that we’re here, Adrien, how did school go?
Adrien: Honestly … far more active than I hoped? Alya and Chloe had a fight about where they would seat and well, I chose Alya today as it kept things more simple and without anyone moving
Himiko: No offense Adrien but Chloe sounds like a bitch
Adrien: It surprised me too, normally she’s a bit pushy but this is the first time I see her acting like this
Hiccup: it seems you just learned something new about your friend, to bad it wasn’t anything good
Adrien: And then apparently one kid named Ivan got into a fight or something and was sent to the principal
Jaune: Oh that doesn’t sound good
Adrien: But you know what the worst part was?
Ruby: By the brothers there’s more?!
Adrien: Yes and that is a monster suddenly appeared in school so I had to drag both Chloe out of there while Alya did the same with me and now I’m back at the mansion and just out of getting a dressing down from Nathalie
Himiko: Ok, I don’t know what’s wildest, Naruto’s teacher possibly trying to trick him or THAT
Hiccup: I vote Adrien
Jaune: You know, compared to that my day with Ruby has been downright normal
Himiko: Same here
Hiccup: And I’m thankful that my day has been normal too
Ruby: That said, I have reason to be angry
Himiko: Oooooohhhhhhhhhh! Tell us!
Jaune: Ruby please don’t
Hiccup: Ruby please do
Ruby: Did you know Jaune’s father is the town’s blacksmith?
Adrien: Oh
Hiccup: OH
Ruby: And it gets better, Jaune’s mom is the town’s teacher
Himiko: … You are joking, you must be
Ruby: I’m not
Jaune: It's not that bad
Ruby: Jaune, they could’ve helped you to be a huntsman, even if they didn't like the idea. Like, you were going in completely blind!
Hiccup: Jaune, your parent may love you but they’re being pretty bad at this whole business abut being a huntsman
Himiko: Bad? They’re being terrible!
Adrien: Did anything else happen? Like a fight or something?
Jaune: No, thankfully
==============================
?: Hopefully this works
?: You’re going to make a mess
?: And that's why this is only a small test, true travel between realities is still far away
?: Did your friend decide to help?
?: … He said he won’t stop me but that he won’t help me either, too much risk for him, at least at this moment
?: As long you don’t break anything then
?: This test is designed to not break anything, if something breaks it means something has gone horribly horribly wrong somewhere else
?: Knowing our luck …
?: Don’t worry, nothing will happen

Hiruzen Sarutobi had lived a long life and during said life he had made several mistakes but also gone through several scenarios so when Naruto barged into his office telling him that there was something important he wanted to warn him about Hiruzen was all ears, he just didn’t expect what he heard. “Naruto, do you realize that you’re basically saying your teacher is a potential traitor to the village?! - asked Hiruzen as he looked at Naruto with a grim face, the young blonde surprisingly keeping his cool - “Well, I thought he was just tricking me but now that you mention it it would make sense” - answered Naruto as his started to think, Mizuki being a traitor would actually make sense. Hiruzen for his part sighed - “I’m really too old for this” - thought the 3rd Hokage as he thought about the situation, Mizuki being a traitor was almost a given but there was nothing to prove it beyond Naruto’s words which were of dubious worth for the rest of the village’s ninjas. However, something told him that Naruto had thought about that already, which was why the village’s prankster had come to his office - Naruto, what do you think?” - asked Hiruzen catching Naruto by surprise - “Well, I thought it was suspicious which is why I came where but, well, I also thought about making a trap for him, that I would get the scroll and then make him confess to whatever he was planning if he was planning something at all” - admitted Naruto. Unknown to him however, Naruto's admission made something click inside Hiruzen’s mind, a crazy idea but one that might just work - “Naruto, what if I said to you that your plan might just be the thing we needed to catch Mizuki?” - said the Hokage. Naruto’s smile was almost blinding.
==============================
Millie roared as she lifted her axe before bringing it down, cutting in half the head on a sinner before using the momentum to block the strike of another coming at her from behind. The sinner tried to use his own strength to overwhelm Millie only for her to twist her axe making the sinner lose his footing and opening him to be shot in the back by Moxxie who immediately did so - “Millie, come back, I need to reload!” - shouted Moxxie before a burst of bullets made him duck behind the counter, Millie following suit. Around them there was a pandemonium of sinners, imps, hellhound and even an unlucky pair of an incubus and a succubus, several sinners, imps and hellhound laid dead on the ground and those that weren¿t were shooting each other like crazy.
“I see our target but it's too far away” - commented Moxxie as he reloaded his pump-action shotgun while sitting, his back against the counter- “want me to give you an opening dear?” - asked Millie as she crouched besides Moxxie keeping an eye out for anyone that might try to ambush them - “not now, he’s too far and too well protected, we need something to scatter them” - answered Moxxie as he finished reloading the shotgun and getting in position to fire at a moments notice while still taking cover - “and what about he use those bottles? A bit of alcohol and a match and presto” - said Millie with a predatory smile on her face. Moxxie for his part wanted to say no, that it was too dangerous but considering the situation, they would be lucky to escape alive at all - “Millie, my love, that's a crazy idea but it might just work, I’ll cover you” - answered Moxxie as he stood up and started firing as Millie got the drinks and started to prepare the improvised incendiary bottles, hoping they would work, some sinners took aim at Millie but Moxxie was quick to suppress (and in one case kill) anyone that tried to aim at the assassin imp.
“I have 3!” - announced Millie as she set light to one of them - “3 rounds left!” - answered Moxxie before Millie chucked the improvised incendiary bottle which landed right beside the couples target burning one of its companions and setting its leg on fire, not wasting time, Moxie used the distraction caused by the fire to set alight the other two bottles passing them to Millie so she could throw them, soon another two small fires were started and even more chaos reigned several of the fighters using that moment to flee giving the assassin couple the opening that they needed. Rushing out from behind the counter they went out of the bar but not before Moxxie shot the target with his shotgun injuring the sinner fatally before Millie finished the job with her axe. After that it was just going to the van and driving away.
“That was a mess and a half” - commented Moxxie completely exhausted, more mentally than physically, Millie agreed wholeheartedly - “yeah, that was a mess alright, at least the target is dead and there is less competition at least for a while” - commented Millie as she stretched and groaned as the frustration finally went out. The ride back to I.M.P. headquarters was as calm as it could’ve been expected and the imp couple arrived without much issues. Quickly parking and entering the building Moxxie and Millie found Blitzø and Loona already inside the meeting room - “Hey Mills, hey Mox, how did the mission go you both look horrible” - shouted Blitzø far too happy for Moxxie’s mental well-being, thankfully for everyone involved Millie decided to speak first as both took their respective seats - “the whole contract was a giant ambush, likely to eliminate some competition but we managed to get the asshole”
“Yikes, that sucks Mills but while you were out there I managed to get the answer to all our professional problems!” - suddenly announced Blitzø standing up and showing a magic book - “this is the grimoire and with it we can go to Earth to kill people and even better, it's easy to use!” - It took Moxxie and Millie a few seconds before they could finally process what that truly meant but when it did both were ecstatic - “Now Loony, show us how it's done!” - shouted Blitzø as he threw the book at Loona who, while still bored out of her mind and barely paying attention, caught it and opened it.
==============================
“You asked for me, Yuuko sensei?” - asked Shirogane as he was guided into the lab of the leader of Alternative IV who was typing in her computer until the young eishi spoke making the professor look away from her computer and to her subordinate - “I did yes and I have quite the news for both you and more importantly Alternative IV” - announced Yuuko making Shirogane stand in complete attention - “due to your friend the Administrator and the technology I managed to accelerate the development of the 00 Unit and refine my theory of causality, now the latter has been quite miniscule but thinking about it I need to ask you a question, do you recognize these equations?” - asked the mad scientists while giving Shirogane some papers which he read, on them there were several mathematical equations including several advanced ones, many of which he recognized from his own timeline - “I do recognize them, you actually taught them to us in class” - answered Takeru surprising Yuuko before she suddenly stood up and tried to start shaking him - “then you should know how to complete the equations, tell me!” - she shouted, finally seeing a way to finish the 00 Unit and with it, advance Alternative IV - “sorry sensei but I’ve forgotten!” - shouted Takeru as he kept the professor at bay for a few seconds before she stopped with a huff crossing her arms - “useless then but … if you say that my counterpart finished the equations then … Shirogane, I’m going to show you the other part of the project I managed to finish, it might as well be the key to get the rest of the equations, now come with me”
Following Yuuko, Shirogane entered the familiar room where the 00 Unit was in, however Yuuko didn’t stop there but instead entered yet another room Shirogane and Yashiro followed her. Inside several cables, a large computer terminal, several tube looking constructions and a much smaller computer terminal or control module at the side of the tube-like constructions were present - “What is this?” - asked Shirogane as he looked around, while Yashiro went to stand near the control module and Yuuko went to work in the large computer terminal - “this, is a special room built to my specifications based on my theory of causality and right now, they’re our key to getting the missing parts of my equations” - explained Yuuko as she worked the information hitting Takeru like as brick as he froze - “wait .. does this means?” - he started to ask stuttering but not daring to finish the question - “Indeed Takeru, with this I can temporarily send you back to your timeline, the reasons are complicated so shut up and listen” - ordered Yuuko with complete seriousness, Shirogane doing as she said realizing how important the coming explanation was.
“This came to me after an examination of your vitals after you told me this “chat application” existed just to make sure nothing wrong was happening” - started Yuuko, Shirogane immediately recognizing of what the scientist was talking about - “oh yeah, I remember, you told me nothing was wrong” - commented Shirogane - “indeed because exactly nothing was wrong, your vitals were completely normal with nothing out of ordinary however while I continued to check the results I discovered a small fact, while you were sleeping your brainwaves completely disappeared as Yashiro confirmed it to me” - continued the professor - “digging back into my theory I realized that your old reality must be trying to bring you back to it, however it can only do so when you’re sleeping because being conscious and with other people aware of your existence anchors you to this reality”
“So this room …” - Started Takeru - “this room have devices that will be able to send you back to your reality using a similar process, once you’re inside and its activated, the device will brute force you back to your original reality, Yashiro meanwhile will act as your anchor back here bringing you back once you are willing to, however you will only have a 24 hours window any longer and Yashiro will lose her contact with you and you will remain in your own timeline with any potential side effects it may cause” - finished Yuuko.
Silence reigned for several seconds as Takeru processed the information, his face changing from happiness, to dread, then confusing and finally resolve - “I promised myself that I would help rid this world of the BETA, tell me what I need to do” - Yuuko smiled with a tint of respect - “exactly the answer I needed, now what I need you to do is to bring me the parts of the equations that are missing so I can finally finish the 00 Unit, as I said, you’ll have 24 hours” - briefed Yuuko as she turned on the devices in the room, one of them opening.
“Understood ma’am” - answered Shirogane as he walked inside the device, meanwhile Yashiro activated the control panel on the side - “you’ll be sent back to your timeline in 20 seconds” - warned Yuuko.

Chapter Text
Millie knew things had gone terribly wrong the moment she felt like she had been through through a whirlpool without even taking a step towards the portal Loona had just conjured, the sensation lasting for what el felt like seconds if not minutes but in reality being just barely enough for her to actually feel it and then she fell to the ground. Shaking her head and moving one of her hands towards where he had hit her head, Millie fought through the sudden pain to open one of her eyes to look around, wherever she was she couldn’t be too cautious.
What she saw surprised her, first, she was alone, neither Moxxie nor Blitzø or even Luna were present, second she was inside an alleyway between two buildings made up of wood, beyond the alleyway she saw more buildings until there was a wall from what seemed to be stone and wood. It was obvious that she wasn’t where Blitzø had planned them to go considering the others were missing, worry immediately shot up - “shit Mox! Blitz! Loona! Where could they be?! Where am I?!” - she thought as she fought through the sting of pain before she fought it down - “Mox, Blitz and Loona can take care of themselves, I first need to find where I am”.
With that though in place, Millie then stood up, holding her head with one hand while using the other to support herself on the building but once she was up the pain soon disappeared - “it seems I didn’t hit myself too badly” - thought the assassin Imp as she looked around more soon seeing her ax. Immediately she went towards it and grabbed it and lifted it before letting it rest on her shoulder - “where am I?” - asked Millie to herself as she finally noticed the sounds of daily life.
Realizing she had not many option she started to walk towards the end of the alleyway until she saw them pass, one a tall blonde boy with some pieces of armor, excitedly talking to a much shorter girl with black hair with a red cloak and black and red clothes - “... ok with this modification the bladed edges of your shield could be made vibroblades using the correct mix of dust!” - said the young girl to the boy as they passed by - “Rubes, I think this is a bit too much for me right now” - apparently answered the voice of the boy as they got away, Millie barely hearing the answer.
Without thinking she immediately took out her phone (it was intact thankfully enough) and used the chat to create a small voice chat with only herself and the two Remnant natives inside it. “Millie, hi!” - said Ruby soon followed by Jaune - “Hey Millie, how are you” - both answers made Millie smile - “Hello Ruby, hello Jaune, well I’m in a bit of a pickle because, well, I’m lost” - answered Millie honestly - “wait, what happened?!” - asked Ruby worry in her voice - “remember Blitzø, my boss? Well, he got a magic book that would’ve let use go to Earth but the moment the spell was activated I was transported somewhere else” - explained Millie - “oh, yeah, that sounds bad” - said Ruby after a few seconds of silence - “yeah, that's problematic, did you end up in the middle of nowhere or somewhere else? - asked Jaune now worried - “I ended inside a village inside an alleyway and I’m walking my way out” - said Millie as she walked out of the alley into the street, the people around her looking at her but then continuing their way, thinking she was just a strange type of faunus - “are you sure that is a good idea?” - asked Jaune while Millie walked in the same direction the two teens she wanted to use to prove her theory had gone towards - “I’ll be fine don’t worry you too” - answered Millie with a false bravado which hid her doubts extremely well making sure that neither Jaune or Ruby noticed something, normally she wouldn’t be nervous but the full weight about the possibility of her theory being real was starting to be felt - “now, this may be an odd question but, were you speaking about a possible upgrade to Jaune’s shield, specifically something about a vibroweapon?”
As Millie continued to walk in search of her targets, both Jaune and Ruby were stunned into silence, several seconds passed as both remained in silence, something Millie was thankful for as she looked around trying to find the two until she finally noticed them, the tall blonde teen with armor, hoodie and jeans alongside the shorter black-haired girl with a red cape and red and black clothes. Millie smiled - “Jackpot” - she thought with a small smile as she came closer - “Millie, how did you know?” - suddenly spoke up Ruby , Millie hearing her both through the chat and in person, it was a confirmation of her theory - “well, it’ll be easier to explain if you turn around” - said Millie before she turned off the voice chat,
Slowly, both Jaune and Ruby turned around to find themselves looking at the much shorter imp, the brain of both the knight and the reaper short-circuiting at the fact their assassin friend was now right behind them in the, red skin, charcoal black haired, black dressed, two horned, axe-carrying flesh - “hello Jaune, hello Ruby, nice to meet you both in person” - said Millie in a soft and sweet voice while she waved her right hand, that greeting was enough to to shake both remnant natives out of their support - “Millie?” - asked Ruby not believing what she was seeing - “yep” - answered the assassin from wrath with full confidence. Jaune meanwhile was trying to say something but couldn’t as shown by the movements of his mouth but before either he or Millie could say anything, Ruby rushed and gave Millie a bearhug - “Millie! It's good to finally meet you in person!” - - basically shouted Ruby, Millie hugging her back.
While her situation was still problematic, Millie had to accept that she was also happy to meet them both.
==============================
Moxie knew he was in a pickle when after what felt like both an eternity and nothing he fell somewhere, despite the nausea he managed to sit to notice several things, the first thing was that he was inside a room, and it was a massive room with far too much stuff, then that near him was a blonde kid looking at him in surprise a part of Moxxie’s brain telling him he should recognize the the kid but the nausea didn’t help, but most importantly is that staring at him was an angry floating cat like thing. The moment Moxxie looked at the being he felt it, the sheer weight that the being was, it was like the very concept of destruction was in front of him … and considering its small face it wasn’t happy at him. At least, the shock had erased his nausea.
Small mercies.
“Alright spawn of the damned I give you 30 seconds to explain yourself before I decide to erase you from the face of the Earth” - said the being in a low (or as low his nasal squeaky voice could do), on the “right paw” a black aura appearing, an aura that Moxxie instinctively understood what it was - “Sorry sir, my name is Moxxie Knolastname and I don’t know how I ended here” - said Moxxie now desperate to not be erased by the powerful being in front of him, he didn’t even bother looking for his rifle, it would’ve been useless anyway.
“Wait, Moxxie?!” - asked the blonde boy his voice showing both surprise and happiness and making both the assassin imp and the floating being of destruction look at him - “it's me Adrien!” - said the teen getting up and walking to the imp, - “Adrien?!” - asked Moxxie surprised, Plagg meanwhile deactivated his cataclysm looking at his new wearer with surprise in his face, it shouñldn’t be possible for Adrien to know who Moxxie was, the Imp after all, was not from here and yet Adrien knew - “Yes its me, let me help you” - said Adrien as he helped the imp stand up then letting him seat on one of the chairs nearby. Watching over them was Plagg. watching them as a cat stalking his prey, despite the imp’s nature, it seemed friendly enough and most importantly Plagg noticed nothing out of ordinary - “he’s not trying to corrupt him … odd” - thought the miraculous of destruction, there was a lot more going on that the guardian had known Plagg immediately realized before he smiled in glee, the chaos was going to be glorious but first, there was a villain to defeat.
“OK, normally I would’ve pushed to warn you couldn’t tale your identity to anyone but we’re on a tight schedule” - said Plagg making both Adrien and Moxxie look at him - “what do you mean?” - asked Adrien - “you know the monster out there? You’re supposed to help in defeating it” - continued Plagg - “wait like a superhero, awesome!” - said Adrien - “Let me explain, first, my name is Plagg, second to activate the ring and transform you need to say “Plagg, claws out!” and it will transform you” - said Plagg as he started to explain, Adrien overwhelmed by excitement was almost ready to do the call out only for someone to interrupt - “Adrien! I know you’re excited but shouldn’t you wait for Plagg to finish explaining things?” - asked Moxxie making Adrien realize that what the imp was saying was true - “oh, yeah, sorry Plagg, is just that I got excited” - said Adrien sheepishly, Plagg for his part rolled his eyes hiding his surprise about Moxxie’s interruption, he had expected the thing to try to steal the ring for its powers of try to trick Adrien but this “Moxxie” had not done anything of sort and instead had stopped Adrien from jumping in unprepared, he would need a long explanation once the current crisis was dealt with but first he needed to deal with his wielder - “don’t worry about that kid, for now I’ll continue explaining.
A few more minutes passed as Plagg explained everything Adrien needed to know and finally the transformation took place - “cool!” – said Adrien as he looked at himself, Moxxie for his part looked somewhat amused and worried, amused because this remembered him of supervillain comics he had read a few times, worried because this was Adrien, a kid that had just had his first day at school in his life - “so, any superhero name you’re planning to use?” - asked Moxxie to try to calm himself - “Yep, I’m gonna use Chat Noir” - answered Adrien as he walked towards his window - “ok Adri … Chat Noir, now go and stop the monster outside, I’ll be ok here” - said Moxxie to which Chat Noir just nodded in understanding before jumping out the window leaving Moxxie alone - “oh crapbaskets” - Moxxie couldn’t help but to think as he finally had the time to let everything that had happened finally hit him like a freight train.
==============================
Takeru Shirogane had gone through several strange things in his life, from getting trapped in a time loop, to having to fight against terrorist threats and now preparing to fight against alien all while knowing very little on why he had ended in his situation to begin with but back to the matter at hand Shirogane was sure that he was supposed to have returned to his home but instead he was somewhere else, yes, it was a city but it wasn’t one he recognized, even worse, he felt as if he was going to get a killer migraine despite Yuuko not warning him about any potential side-effects.
As he struggled to get a hang of himself Takeru suddenly felt a hand grabbing one of his shoulders, immediately turning around he found it was a blonde man with a basically skeletal frame, to be honest he looked as if he was extremely sick - “hey young man, are you ok? You look ill” - said the blonde skeletal man, trying to keep his headache down Takeru answered - “I have a headache right now but beyond that and not knowing where am I, I’m ok” - answered Shirogane truthfully - “well, that explains why you appeared out of nowhere young man, quirk mishap I guess” - commented the blonde skeleton, Takeru saying nothing making the man extend his right arms with his hand extended - “anyways, let me help you young man, my name is Toshinori Yagi by the way”
“Thank you, Mr. Yagi, my name is Takeru Shirogane” - said Takeru as he stood up, still a bit wobbly. For his part Izuku stood there frozen, he brains trying to deal with the implications of what the teen that had appeared from nowhere, if this was indeed Shirogane it meant that one of his friends has suddenly travelled between worlds and that meant … quite a lot, far too much for Izuku’s brain to think about without being overwhelmed.
As Takeru finally stood, Toshinori turned to someone the reality displaced teen had not noticed until now, a much younger teen himself in his school uniform - “young Midoriya, are you ok?” said the man as he tapped the recently graduated teen who just screamed in shock as his brain finally rewired. Takeru for his part acted without thinking - “Midoriya? As in Izuku Midoriya?” - he asked as he looked in shock, Izuku for his part was unable to speak although not for lack of trying, seeing this Toshinori answered instead - “indeed! This young man is him, how did you know?” - asked the living skeleton, Takeru mentally debated how to answer the question before deciding to be half honest - “we know each other from a text chat”
The answer was apparently good enough for Toshinori - “he just must be shocked to see you then” - commented Yagi as Izuku finally spoke but not what he expected to hear at all - “Takeru! How are you here?! Last thing I knew we couldn’t travel between realities!” - Takeru’s eyes widened in shock while Izuku, now realizing what he just said, put both his hands on top of his mouth. Toshinori meanwhile frowned, he was now extremely worried and extremely confused looking at the reactions of both teens - “there’s more going on here than what they’re telling” - he thought.
He needed to get answers.
==============================
[Administrator] looked around as reality threatened to be torn asunder before it calmed down, this was not supposed to happen, literally, the test had been built and checked over 5 times to make sure nothing like this would happen, looking around he found [Redacted] also looking with a face of complete surprise - “that was not supposed to happen? I guess?” - she asked in a teasing voice but one he knew it was just for show, much like him, she was rattled - “it was not, in fact this goes against everything we know about this” - answered [Administrator] - “in that case, we better ask your friends then, they should know more” - answered [Redacted] - “if they’re aren’t on their way to kill me already …” - snarked back [Administrator]
Before he could say anything else, a small form appeared inside the room interrupting him, a considerable amount of rage showing in its face - “[Administrator you better explain yourself, do you have any idea what you’ve done?!” - [Administrator] for his part just sighed knowing this would happen - “This is what I was testing to do, you look at it and tell me if this is making any fucking amouint of sense” - he said back, his friend taking the documents.
And then the new arrival red the documents, minutes passed as he read and then watched the recordings of the event and even more minutes passed as the new arrival analyzed the situation before coming out with his conclusion - “this doesn’t make any sense, nothing short of a resonance event would’ve caused this but the odds …”
[Administrator] sighed as his friend found the same wall he did, the odds of a resonance were low already and even if there was one resonance powerful enough to create the effect to do what had happened was simply unheard of without preparation - “what about the chat? Considering how it works it may’ve affected things” - suddenly spoke [Redacted], both [Administrator] and his friend looked at her with eyes of realization - “that could be it, a basically unheard of resonance event mixed with the test and the chat, could’ve been just enough”
“What a bloody mess this is” - commented [Administrator] as his friend went to work.
==============================
Hiruzen Sarutobi had seen a lot as the 3rd Hokage of Konohagakure including incredible upsets and Naruto defeating Mizuki by massed use of the Shadow Clone jutsu was definitively that, however the most shocking of the whole fight was not Iruka getting in the way of the plan but instead not only Mizuki revealing to Naruto he was the village’s jinchūriki (even if in an incorrect way) but also the Iruka despite everything still viewed Naruto as Naruto, something the young ninja had used to steel himself. Now Hiruzen found himself not only debriefing Iruka and Naruto but emotionally preparing himself to tell Naruto a lot of personal but important information once he was officially made genin.
“I have to say, this ended in the best possible situation considering the factors at play, well done Iruka for staying loyal to the village and protecting your student” - commented the Hokage looking at the injured Chunin, thankfully his injures had not been critical and the medic nins had done a good job - “and you Naruto also did a good job, with Mizuki now imprisoned we’ll quickly learn what he was planning to do with the scroll” - Naruto gave a wide smile at the praise - “it was nothing old man hokage!”
Hiruzen chuckled at Naruto’s title to himself while Iruka sighed in embarrassment - “with this done however, Naruto, due to your actions today and the fact you learned Shadow Clone jutsu I have to make official Iruka’s decision to have you graduate from the academy, you deserve it” - said the 3rd Hokage as he gave a small smile while Naruto exploded into celebration and even hugged Iruka who winced in pain making Naruto stop and say sorry.
Then a single sound decided to make Naruto’s life more complicated.
==============================
Administrator: Normally I’m not the one to make assumptions like this but Kouzuki Yuuko, what the fuck did you do today?
Kouzuki: While I did do some things today and in fact I’m desperately trying to see what the hell happened, why do you think it's my fault?
Administrator: You’re messing with the fabric of your reality with your Causality Theory
Kouzuki: You know what? Fair enough but for your information I indeed tested my Casualty Theory by sending Shirogane back to his timeline to try to find a way to finish the 00 Unit, although something went wrong,
Administrator: Well … shit
Kouzuki: You know something, don’t you?
Administrator: Basically, he is in another reality now
Kouzuki: …
Administrator: Yes, I know how that sounds, I’m working on it but your experiment and my own test apparently affected each other, I’m seeing just how far this is going, get ready for a roll call
Kouzuki: Out of all things … I’m also assuming you’re going to be adding members to this chat
Administrator: Sadly enough, it may be needed, things are developing fast

Himiko: Hey what gives?!
Jaune: Oh, this is awkward
Kouzuki: You weren’t really kidding
Naruto: Do you have any idea how many problems you’ve just got me into!
Administrator: As a matter of fact, yes I do
[User: 12 has changed its name to Hiruzen]

Administrator: For all the new people either read someone else’s mind or read the backlog I don’t care which. For those that were already here, I’ll explain what the hell is going on
Plagg: This is not natural. THis should be impossible. Do you know how many things this “chat” is breaking right now?!
Administrator: Yes, now shut and read
Sekijiro: Wait a moment you, what is this?! Explain!
Administrator: Like I said read a mind or the backlog, I need to do some explanations to the others like right now
Loona: Fuck you!
Blitzø: What Looloo said, fuck that!, Explain yourself or I’ll find you and kill you!
Administrator: More dangerous being have tried and failed but if do you kill me you lose your friends in the other realities
Blitzø: … FUCK!
Administrator: Now shut up and let me explain
Takeru: Does this have to do with why I ended up in Izuku's reality?
Moxxie: Wait also you?!
Naruto: What?!
Hiccup: Wait, what do you mean?
Moxxie: For some reason I ended in Adrien’s bedroom
Millie: And I in Jaune’s village, met him and Ruby btw
Administrator: Alright SILENCE!
Administrator: Everyone good? Good
Administrator: So apparently by a series of freak coincidences of critical life changing events, Professor’s Kouzuki’s experiment, Loona opening the portal to Earth and testing of my own, a Resonance Event happened connecting all the realities present in this chat ending with Takeru in Musutafu, Izuku’s home city, Moxxie ending up in Paris which is Adrien’s home and Millie ending up in High Garden which is Jaune’s home. Those connections were however temporary and pretty much a single time event. Luckily for you, I can build up more permanent connections to bring your friends home (or for you to visit your friends). And no @Blitzø that doesn’t mean you can offer assassinations in the other realities, you do that and I make sure your life until now looks like a calm picnic by comparison.
Kouzuki: Is there anything we can do?
Administrator: As far as I know, no, but I’ll call you if you can help.
Administrator: For all the new members, this chat is supposed to remain a secret if you want to tell someone, make sure it's someone you can trust with even the darkest knowledge you have. And with that I’m out, good luck to you all and hope I can fix this mess permanently.
[User: Administrator - Has quit your channel]
Adrien: I’m sorry but me and Plagg have to go, we're in the middle of something!
Plagg: This is going to be a headache, I just know it
[User: Adrien - Has quit your channel]
[User: Plagg - Has quit your channel]
Millie: Hon, what exactly is Adrien doing
Moxxie: Being a magical boy superhero and yes I’m being serious. Btw Plagg is both the source of Adrien’s powers AND the living magical manifestation of the concept of destruction
Hiccup: Why am I the most normal here?!
Loona: Hey, what makes you say that?!
Hiccup: Izuku and Himiko live in a place where mutations and superpowers are now the norm, Adrien is now wielding the manifestation of destruction to be a superhero, Naruto is a ninja with chakra and that lets him do crazy stuff, Jaune and Ruby use their souls as armor and are going to an academy to fight the monsters that plague their world, Moxxie and Millie are LITERAL DEMONS and Takeru is dealing with timeloops and timeline jumping. By comparison I’m just a viking fighting dragons! I’m the normal one here!
Kouzuki: I hate how much sense you're making
Hiccup: Also I’m too tired right now, I’m gonna get some sleep
[User: Hiccup - Has quit your channel]
Hiruzen: I think it will be better for all of us to present ourselves and then discuss what is going on, since we have already read the presentations of the previous members I think we can exempt them from the presentation.
Blitzø: And why would I want to do that
Yashiro: Trust
Blitzø: What?
Yashiro: Trust
Blitzø: Is she broken or what?
Takeru: Hey, what's your problem?!
Blitzø: My problem? It's her the one that's broken and speaking as if she was a parakeet!
Naruto: You know, I’m actually surprised Moxxie and Millie tolerate you, you sound like an asshole
Himiko: Same with Loona, both Moxxie and Millie mentioned you two, they just never mentioned you were complete assholes
Sekijiro: Alright that’s enough! We gain nothing by fighting between us!
Toshinori: Indeed, and Yashiro is saying the truth, trust is important here
Hiruzen: And for that reason I’m willing to begin with myself if you want me to
Loona: Just do it, it's not going to make my headache worse anyhow
Hiruzen: In that case, my name is Hiruzen Sarutobi, I’m the 3rd Hokage and current leader of Konoha.
Iruka: I’m Iruka Umino, I was Naruto’s teacher in the academy, I reached the rank of Chunin before I retired from active duty to be a teacher.
Yashiro: …
Kouzuki: Its alright Yashiro, just say what you want to say
Yashiro: … ok … My name is Yashiro Kasumi, I work for Professor Kouzuki Yuuko in Alternative IV and I help take care of the 00 Unit.
Toshinori Yagi: Hello everyone! My name is Toshinori Yagi and I work at All Might’s agency helping him with the logistics and recruitment department helping the heroes working in the agency to get their gear and known their patrol locations
Izuku: Ah, Mr. Yagi
Toshinori: I told you Toshinori is ok young Izuku but what is it?
Izuku: I think we should tell …
Toshinori: …
Izuku: I know, I know but … I was going to tell the others before … well, all this
Toshinori: Do you trust them that much?
Izuku: Yes!
Toshinori: I understand young Izuku
Iruka: I assume what you're talking about is private
Toshinori: It is very private and in fact is my deepest secret, only a few personally select people know about it and I’m trusting you not to tell anyone
Hiruzen: It has to do with your job?
Toshinori: More than that, if this secret goes public, all of Japan might fall in complete anarchy in the worst case scenario
Sekijiro: If what you say is true, it has to do with All Might, correct?
Toshinori: Exactly
Himiko: You can trust me, I won’t say anything
Sekijiro: Same with me, the last thing I want is for the villains to take advantage of it
Jaune: My lips are sealed!
Ruby: Same, I won’t tell anyone!
Hiruzen: Iruka, Naruto, everything in this chat and the existence of it is to be considered an S Class secret, understood?
Iruka: Understood Lord Hokage
Naruto: You got it old man hokage!
Takeru: I’m already keeping a lot of secrets so Alternative IV can work, I can do the same
Kouzuki: Consider my lip sealed Toshinori, your Japan might be different than mine but if I’m fighting to safe my home I can help you on the side, specially since this doesn’t cost me anything
Yashiro: … Silence … Promised
Moxxie: I’ll, keep silent
Millie: Same with me
Moxxie: We also promise to keep Blitzø and Loona silent
Blitzø: Moxx you traitor!
Loona: Like hell you’re fatty!
Moxxie: I’m a gun expert and I’m not afraid to use them so try me and see how far you can push it!
Loona: …
Blitzø: Wow, Moxx gre some balls
Millie: Blitzø, Loona, we’re both being serious, the older members of the chat are either our friends or at least acquaintances, we will do what we must to help them
Blitzø: Wow, you’re really serious about this
Moxxie: Of course we fucking are!
Blitzø: Ok fiiiiine, just so I don’t have to deal with baby dick’s whining
Loona: Whatever, it's not like I give a shit
Toshinori: … You have good friends young Izuku
Izuku: I know!
Toshinori: In this case, I wasn’t entirely truthful, while I work at All Might’s agency I don’t work in the logistics and recruitment department, I work in the hero department
Himiko: Why keep it secret then? Are you some kind of underground hero?
Toshinori: It’s because I’m not just any hero … I’m All Might
Himiko: … no fucking way!
Sekijiro: … oh FUCK!
Naruto: Oh … OH
Takeru: Oh dear
Ruby: All Might, as in “the hero of peace”, “the number 1 hero”, that All Might?!
Toshinori: The very same
Kouzuki: While that explain a lot, I would ask for prove just in case
[User: Izuku - Has uploaded: Toshinori/All Might Transformation.mp4]
[User: Takeru - Has uploaded: Toshinori/All Might Transformation.mp4]
Sekijiro: … Well, I’ll be damned, you truly are All Might
Himiko: What happened to you?! Your normal form is so … skeletal
Toshinori: When defeating my greatest enemy, I suffered from extensive injuries, what you see is the result of those injuries
Sekijiro: Shit, and let me guess, there are worse news
Naruto: How can it get worse?!
Hiruzen: I can think of many ways Naruto
Toshinori: Sadly Sekijiro, you’re correct. My injuries were so extensive that it put a limit on how long I can act as All Might, before it was hours per day, now it's mere minutes at best.
Moxxie: Oh crumpets, that's not good
Kouzuki: So Japan is on the way to lose their best hero and symbol
Iruka: That would be like us losing the fourth during the Kyuubi attack
Millie: I think it would be worse as he has no real replacement from what I’m getting
Toshinori: Normally that would be true but, due to my quirk not so much, my quirk is special as it can be passed down to a successor and I’ve already chosen one, someone you all know
Naruto: No fucking way, HAHAHAHAHA!
Jaune: IZUKU?!
Izuku: Yeah, All Might chose me as his successor
Ruby: Well done Izuku, you’re right on the road to be the new number 1 hero!
Toshinori: Indeed, Izuku showed great heroism today and it inspired me and made me remember why I wanted to be a hero at his age, for that reason I chose him
Jaune: That’s so lucky, Izuku you manage it!
Millie: Well done sweetheart!
Himiko: Well done Izuku!
Izuku: Thanks everyone
Toshinori: No problem young Izuku, but now I think it's time to continue
Sekijiro: WEll, in my case, I’m Sekijiro Kan with my Hero name being Vlad King, I’m also a teacher in UA Academy and I’m going to be the homeroom teacher of 1-B the coming year.
Blitzø: Fuck this
Moxxie: Boss, either you do it or I do it
Blitzø: Fuck you Mox
Moxxie: Only in your dreams
Blitzø: Ok, ok. My name Blitzø Buckzo, pronounced as Blitz btw, the Mox’s and Millie’s boss, the father of Loona and the CEO of I.M.P.
Loona: Ah fuck it, my name is Loona and I work as secretray in I.M.P. and that’s all you’re getting you fuckers
Iruka: And that's everyone I think
Moxxie: Oh dear, the monster is getting closer and … WTF IS THAT GIRL DOING?! Sorry guys but I think I’ll need to get involved!
Millie: Good luck Mox!
[User: Moxxie - Has quit your channel]
Himiko: I’m still in shock about everything I just learned about All Might
Sekijiro: You can say that Himiko
Hiruzen: While I would like to stay and chat, I need to discuss things with Naruto and Iruka about the … recent developments
Iruka: Understood Lord Hokage
Naruto: Ok, I’ll be good
[User: Hiruzen - Has quit your channel]
[User: Iruka - Has quit your channel]
Naruto: Wish me luck guys!
Ruby: Good luck!
Jaune: Yeah, Good luck Naruto, you’ll be ok be sure of that
Naruto: I hope so
[User: Naruto - Has quit your channel]
Blitzø: Ok Mills, what about you?
Millie: Ruby is going to present us to her father and sister, I might even get some practice!
Blitzø: Lucky you, well have fun Mills, I’ll see if this stupid book has something that can help
[User: Blitzø - Has quit your channel]
Kouzuki: He has been the most unpleasant member of the chat yet
Izuku: I have to agree
Takeru: Izuku, are you ok?
Izuku: I’m ok,, hearing the explanations again isn’t as shocking anymore
Jaune: I do hope the Administrator manages to fix things, like, make no mistake I love having met Millie but I hope she isn’t trapped here
Takeru: Considering the chat, even if the administrator is only half as intelligent as Yuuko-sensei, he’ll manage something
Ruby: Oh, I see my dad, bye guys!
Izuku: Bye Ruby!
Toshinori: Good bye, have a nice time.
==============================
Taiyang Xiao-Long liked to think he was openminded, somewhat of a necessity considering the secrets of the world he knew about but he had his limits, so when Ruby disappeared inside the village and then couldn’t be found in the blacksmith Taiyang got a bit uneasy, when it started to get dark and he saw Ruby coming to the inn with a blonde boy and a very short red skinned woman (likely a faunus of some kind), he got even more worried, Yang was in an even worse mood and it had taken him quite a lot to keep her from beating down the boy down, considering the short woman’s ax, it was likely that he would’ve needed to get in the way to keep Yang from being beaten up.
However after some presentation it became clear that one, the boy was just too honest for his own good, like “strangers are friends you just haven't met yet” sounded nice and all but it was an easy way to get killed and yet the kid believed completely on those words and while the woman was also friendly … well, she worried him.
“So you’re a huntress?” - asked Yang as she sat in front of her while her dad was cooking and Ruby was talking to that other boy, Jaune if she remembered correctly - “you could say that but not really? I concentrate more on people” - answered Millie feigning a disinterested answer which confused confused yang, made Ruby and Jaune stop talking for an almost imperceptible moment and made Taiyang listen while continuing cooking as he noticed the specific wording - “how so, do you go after criminals or bandits?” - asked Yang in confusion trying to make sense of what she was hearing, Millie for her part, did her best to remember what Jaune and Ruby had told her about Remnant - “bandits, raiders, mobsters, gangsters, if its human and causing problems I go after them” - answered Millie the answer making Yang raise one of her eyebrows - “and what about faunus?” - asked Yang - “faunus, human, same thing really, beyond an additional characteristic faunus and humans are the same, I don’t see the point of thinking one being worse or better than the other” - answered Millie weiving her lie, the issue between humans and faunus reminded her how hell’s society was structured, the main difference being that there was no higher ordained social order in Remnant, meaning humans and faunus should really be equals, Millie didn’t really get why humans and faunus fought each other considering the horde of monsters actively trying to annihilate both but at least it made her story believable.
“Ok, makes sense” - commented Yang before frowning for a bit thinking before asking - “so, what’s your semblance?” - Millie decided that this time honesty was the better solution - “I don’t have any, in fact, I don’t even have aura, all I got is my weapons and A LOT of practice and training” - answered Millie surprising both yang and Taiyang, the later who would’ve gotten burned had it not been for his own aura - “thanks the brothers that I always activate my aura when cooking” - couldn’t help but think Taiyang, especially since he remembered an embarrassing incident back at Beacon but quickly concentrated in the matter at hand - “fighting without aura, either she’s insane or extremely skilled, or in someone’s payroll, I must be careful”
Yang for her part was surprised and thinking in similar terms to her father but unlike him she was more impressed than worried - “really?! Why have you not activated your aura then?” - asked Yang to which Millie shrugged - “never really saw a reason to, yes fighting people with aura is troublesome but I’ve managed”
“And what if I activated your aura?” - suddenly asked Taiyang as he left the food to cook itself, Millie was understandably shocked at the idea as were Yang. Ruby and Jaune too but when they noticed Millie looking at them they both nodded, Millie may not be human (or faunus) but if animals had shown, you didn’t need to be human (or faunus) - “ok, lets do it then” - answered Millie as she stood up with a smile as Taiyang nodded and walked towards her putting one of his hands on one of her shoulders starting the process.
What Ruby and Jaune had forgotten to account for and that Taiyang and Yang didn’t know was that Millie was an imp from hell, and due to her very nature, activating aura, something tied to someone’s own soul, was to have side effects.
And for Taiyang was the feeling his own soul was starting to burn.
==============================
“This is a hilarious disaster” - thought Plagg or well, kind of thought as he ate some camembert and watched his chosen fumble an explanation to his newer friend, the girl in question not vibrating out of the room only because she was busy milking all the information she could out of him. It was a complete and utter breach of the rules the guardian had given him and by connection his chosen but Plagg didn’t care, what he cared about was the “imp”. By all rights the thing should’ve been trying to corrupt Adrien, to damn his soul and then drag him somewhere outside Plagg’s own universe and yet, it had not done any of sort instead it had been helping Adrien to calm down his friend and to drive down the importance of her keeping her mouth shut and what she had learned secret which was currently a work in progress.
More important however was the chat and what it meant, with the connection the chat had created it had somehow made it possible for people from one reality to go into another which was bad news as far Plagg was concerned considering it meant that whatever danger existed in one place, likely could migrate into another or worse. With a sigh Plagg pulled out his new “phone” from … somewhere and started to read the chat, hoping to find things had gone better.
One look was enough to make Plagg realize that he should’ve stayed shut.
==============================
Administrator: You did WHAT?!
Jaune: Ruby’s dad tried to awaken Millie’s aura and he is now in pain saying he feels like his soul is burning
Kouzuki: But, how?!
Administrator: Aura awakening or activation only needs a souls strong present and another soul strong enough to activate it, by her very nature Millie has a soul or is quite literally the equivalent of one, but due to the fact she’s also technically a demon
Izuku: Blowback, he’s suffering from a blowback
Administrator: That’s my guess at least
Jaune: But what do we do then?!
[User: Plagg - Has entered your channel]
Plagg: That's simple, you need someone to destroy the corruption
Jaune: But where would we find someone that can do that fast enough to find a semblance like that would be
Plagg: What you need is me
Administrator: … I hate you’re right, I’ll see what can I do to get you there
Kouzuki: You need help?
Administrator: Unironically yes, my friend is basically screaming I let you activate your machine to fix this mess and he’s the expert of the two so get ready
Kouzuki: I will
Plagg: To think getting chosen would be the least exciting thing of all of this day
Notes:
Not even a day and the chat causes a crisis by messing with unforceen complications
Also, query, while this will be my personal decision would you prefer canon teams for original teams fr Ruby, Jaune and Naruto?
Chapter 8: Moving pieces
Chapter Text
Yang was close to panicking, her father was in pain in the Inn’s infirmary as the local doctor tried and failed to help him in any way, all they could say was that his aura was acting up but nothing more than that. Explaining things to them had only given them more questions than answers as the woman, Millie is Yang remembered correctly, had willingly gone through a series of short tests with the village’s limited equipment but beyond discovering the abnormally large aura reserves, their only theory was that the reaction had been caused by Millie unconsciously using her semblance, the problem was that, even in the case the current issue was caused by her semblance, Millie couldn’t control it at all. A dead end in all practical considerations.
Now Yang was waiting inside his father’s room, he himself unconscious by the use of anesthesia, although it was plainly obvious he was still in pain from the odd groans that sounded every now and then. Ruby for her part was nowhere to be seen, she had gone with the Millie woman and Jaune boy to look for someone he thought could help and that was her life now, waiting for her sister that had gone out with strangers to come back with another stranger to hopefully help her dad.
==============================
Administrator: Alright, everything should be ready, how are things on your own professor Kouzuki?
Kouzuki: As ready as they can be
Administrator: Good enough then, Adrien, you got the plan?
Adrien: Me and Plagg will go to Jaune’s reality, I’ll say that Plagg is my semblance
Administrator: Correct, Jaune, Ruby and Millie will cover for the rest
Ruby: You can count on us Adrien
Plagg: Normally it would be hard for me alone which is why I need Adrien here, my cataclysm is too strong on my own, however with Adrien as Chat Noir …
Jaune: It can be controlled
Toshinori: I still can’t believe this is happening
Sekijiro: You tell me, in any case, what if this doesn’t work, do we have a Plan B?
Administrator: In case this doesn’t work, I’d have to personally deal with this which will create even more problems
Toshinori: So much for easy solutions then
Administrator: I have my hands half tied on my end, things are still unstable as the resonance’s effects are still ongoing
Takeru: What about the rest of us? I’ve been thinking that the longer we stay the harder it will be to stabilize things
Kouzuki: You’re actually asking the right questions now
Administrator: Once this crisis ends, I’ll be bringing everyone back to their respective home realities, anything after that will be my job to deal with, nothing you can do and that includes you professor Kouzuki
Kouzuki: Eh, I can see why, just don’t cause another event while at it
Yashiro: Good luck
==============================
Adrien’s appearance in Remnant was as sudden as it was simple, Plagg’s own appearance however was far more complicated, being the living concept of destruction back at his home reality, him going “missing” had put incredible strain both on him and the transportation method, it also gave him and Adrien little time to waste.
“Adrien, Plagg!” - shouted Ruby as she saw both appear rushing towards the parisian as he seemed to struggle to remain upright Millie right behind her - “are you two ok?” - asked Jaune a bit worried - “I’m ok just a bit dizzy due to this whole travel thing” - answered Adrien as he regained his bearings - “not sorry to interrupt but we have to make it quick, I and by extension Adrien can’t remain long here without causing even more problems to our realities” - suddenly interrupted Plagg as he floating in between everyone.
“Ok, follow me!” - called out Jaune as he began to run towards the town’s Inn, the rest following him. Thankfully they were just a few minutes out as most of the time had been just waiting for Adrien and Plagg to be sent to Remnant.
Back in the Inn, Yang was surprised as Jaue suddenly opened the door, behind him were Ruby, Millie and a blonde boy Yang didn’t recognize, before she could say anything she saw a black cat thing float towards her father as if trying to see what was wrong with him - “hey, what is that thing and who are you?!” - asked Yang pointing at the floating cat thing with one hand and at the new arrival with her other hand - “sorry, he is Adrien and the cat thingy is Plagg, Adrien’s semblance” - answered Jaune as he let the others enter - “glad to meet you, I would’ve wish it was in better circumstances” - said Adrien before turning to Plagg - “Plagg, can you help?” - Adrien asked - “yeah, yeah, nothing we can’t handle but the others will need to get out of the room, this is going to be complicated” - answered Plagg.
Yang was having none of it - “like hell I’m not leaving my dad here!” - answered Yang with fire in her voice, quickly weaving a small lie Adrien spoke up - “its just to make things easier, since I’m going to interact with your father’s aura having more people inside the room it only going to make it more complicated” - Yang however didn’t buy it - “yeah, why?” - at this point Jaune spoke up - “well, due to how his semblance work he can’t really control with which aura he’s connecting if there are too many in too much of a small space, if we stay here he would connect with all of us and well, be overwhelmed” - Yang looked at Adrien you nodded in agreement - “basically that, also I’ll need to concentrate to work and I concentrate better alone”
Yang didn’t like it one bit, it was not her nature to put too much faith if any at all when it came to strangers and her family when they were in distress - “Ruby, what do you think?” - asked Yang as she looked at her younger sister - “I think we should let Adrien try, for dad” - answered Ruby also worried but far more trusting than Yang was feeling. Yang closed her eyes trying and failing to calm down as her emotions bubbled, all the while Ruby, Jaune, Millie and Adrien waited expectantly, after opening her eyes Yang looked directly at Adrien and growled out - “ok, do whatever you need to but if you hurt my dad more I’ll beat you to pulp ok?” - Adrien gulped down and nodded - “understood” - and with that Yang stormed out of the inn’s infirmary, Ruby, Jaune and Millie following suit.
The moment the door closed Adrien turned to Plagg - “you got what you needed Plagg?”
“I did, it will be surprisingly simple, this is what you’ll need to do once you transform” - answered Plagg as he started to explain to Adrien what he needed to do.
==============================
Jaune: Adrien has started with the procedure, hopefully its fast
Kouzuki: He’s dealing with a problem caused by two realities colliding and he’s from a third, at this point nothing is certain. Speaking of certain, Takeru, how are you doing?
Takeru: I’m staying at Toshinori’s agency for the time being, Izuku is going back to his home though
Toshinori: I have to admit, he’s being very curious but respectful
Kouzuki: Ah, so you’re not being a bratty hero there? For shame
Takeru: OI!
Himiko: At least things are now calm, or well, as calm one can be knowing ALl Might is not only retiring soon but that Izuku is his chosen successor
Jaune: You can say that, at least Moxxie’s own travel went well
Moxxie: Well, Plagg threatened to erase me from existence but I can understand that, speaking of which, this girl Alya has a lot of questions, not that I can blame her
Sekijiro: Oh?
Moxxie: Yep, she wants to be a reporter and puts a lot of emphasis in discovering the truth, I would say she even a little obsessive about it
Himiko: Good thing she ain’t here, I can already see her going crazy about heroes
Moxxie: Yeah, that's true, also Millie, are you ok?
Millie: I’m worried about Taiyang, Ruby’s dad btw, but beyond that, this aura thing is amazing I feel like I could benchpress a car!
Takeru: I wish i could do that, would make dealing with the BETA easier
Millie: I don’t know how but Moxxie, if I can get you aura I will, this is too good to pass up!
Moxxie: Lets first see what happens in Remnant first
==============================
Hiruzen sighed as he continued to sit on his officer bored out of his mind while looking upon the list of the academy graduates, the vast majority just average students the most likely would fail the upcoming genin exam, however that was not the source of his issues, the source was ironically Naruto, even not taking into account the whole reality chat thing, Naruto’s recent achievement had really made him rethink the potential teams and now the stray thoughts were not leaving him alone.
Traditionally the best shinobi and best kunoichi of the class would be teamed up with the worst graduating member of the class (after all, some failed the academy exam), in normal circumstance that would’ve meant Naruto would’ve ended with Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno as teammates, however the recent developments Naruto had shown he wasn’t the last of his class anymore, compounding matter however were another 2 developments, first was the one about Yakumo Kurama of the Kurama clan who had somehow managed to keep control of Ido and the other was a girl called Tamaki who had moved into the village recently and had shown enough skill to be considered a genin. Even worse were the compounding issues like the Ino-Shika-Cho, the fact Kakashi was needed to train Sasuke or the fact that there was no way Yakumo was going to accept Kurenai as her sensei - “I really need to get a successor soon” - couldn’t help but think the 3rd Hokage as he reviewed the dossiers of the graduates when he noticed an unlisted addition - “Sai? … Danzo, what do you want now?” - thought the Hokage now just plain bored and frustrated at the new piece now in place - “so you found out about the two additions like I feared you would”
As the minutes passed and Hiruzen continued to mentally grind his brain trying to find a solution to his situation another stray thought crossed his mind, much like before it was dangerous, stupid and somehow it felt like it would just work - “if this works I’ll definitively retiring again, I’m not crazy enough for this anymore” - he thought as a wry smile appeared in his face and he smoked from his pipe - “Naruto, I hope you surprise me again”
==============================
Adrien: FINALLY I’m done!
Plagg: Also, transreality travel? Severely overrated
Ruby: Dad is ok now and Yang finally crashed and fell asleep, we’re moving them to our room now that the medic have cleared up dad
Moxxie: Was it really that complicated to fix what it was?
Adrien: not really, getting enough control and erasing the issue were easy, the actual problem was actually waiting for enough time to pass so it didn’t look and feel fishy for anyone that doesn’t know what was truly happening
Takeru: A decent precaution
Himiko: So, when are you gonna get the others home @Administrator?
Administrator: In a few minutes
Adrien: All I know is that Alya is going to interrogate me
Moxxie: She might but even if she does, she knows better I did manage to get through her head that making your secret identities public is a bad idea
Takeru: For my part, a nice as it was to be in a peaceful world without the BETA, I really want to go back, the XM3 still needs work and the BETA still need to be defeated
Toshinori: I managed to keep the rest of the agency from asking too many questions but I know that at least one member will want answers sooner or later
Kouzuki: Just what we needed
Sekijiro: But understandable at the end
Ruby: So, tomorrow, I start training with Jaune!
Adrien: Really? That fast?
Ruby: We have no time to waste and I can say it just as a way of giving thanks
Moxxie: And how are you covering Millie returning home?
Jaune: That’s easy, we just say she had an emergency and had to leave extremely early
Ruby: Similar story as with Adrien only that he was just passing by and went out early in the morning
Himiko: So now we just wait until everything is ready I think
Administrator: Alright, get ready to go home you wankers, bloody hell this has been a frustrating day
Himiko: Well … that was fast
==============================
The return to home had been, basically underwhelming for those affected by the resonance , at least in comparison to the sheer shock of their original travel. For Adrien and Plagg was to return to Paris and Alya who bombarded them with questions before promising that she would keep all important information secret … after they relented on the idea of her making a fan blog about both Adrien aka Chat Noir and the still mysterious Ladybug. Moxxie and Millie meanwhile returned to the offices of I.M.P. to find a much too curious Blitzø and an uncaring Loona. Finally Takeru returned to little fanfare but too much relief for both Kasumi and Yuuko. After that however the night passed normally but as the morning gave way, the aftermath of the previous day’s decision started to take shape.
But in the space between realities forces were already at play again.
==============================
Hiccup: And now I’m planning to search for the dragon I shot down last night
Iruka: Are you sure that is a good idea? I think it would be better if you went with someone else just in case
Hiccup: They’d try to steal my kill and claim it as their own, I can’t risk that
Iruka: If you say so …
[User: Naruto - Has entered your channel]
Naruto: Hey Hiccup, Iruka sensei already up?
Hiccup: Yeah, I read the others got quite the night yesterday
Naruto: I’ll read that later, now I have questions Iruka sensei!
Iruka: If its about the teams, sorry Naruto but I can’t tell, Hokage’s orders
Naruto: Oh come on!
Iruka: If you want to know who will be your teammates, you better come to the academy
Naruto: Ok ok
Hiccup: I had forgotten that you passed by merit of defeating your treacher
Iruka: I still don’t know why Mizuki would do that
[User: Izuku - Has entered your channel]
[User: Adrien - Has entered your channel]
Izuku: Some are just power hungry
Adrien: Well, I’ve got to go to school and good luck with the dragon Hiccup!
Hiccup: Thanks
Izuku: I’m going to start my training with All Might soon too!
Hiccup: Good luck with that, so now, on to find a dragon!
Izuku: Good luck!
Naruto: Also, where are the others?
Adrien: Likely sleeping or already doing other things and can’t chat
Iruka: I’ll read from you guys later, now I have to prepare to present the teams to the graduates
==============================
Naruto rushed through Konoha to the academy, the only time he was actually eager (after his first year) to go to the academy and for a good reason, he was finally going to get into a team! And do missions! But first … team.
Rushing to his class Naruto entered to find it full and honestly, had it not been for the Konoha bands being worn by the others, one would’ve thought it was a normal day of class. After all, Shikamaru was already sleeping, Chouji was already eating, Kiba was speaking with Akamaru about something and the girls were already gossiping about Sasuke while the Uchiha was ignoring everyone else. Normally that would’ve infuriated Naruto but today was not the day to get angry, apart from that, he could always prank Sasuke at a later date.
And so ignoring the comments and questions on why he was present Naruto had no better idea than to sit right at the free place beside Sauke, it would piss the duck hair off and he wouldn’t need to do anything! The one thing that confused Naruto was the fact there were another 3 persons that he had never met at all - “strange, what's with that?”
Meanwhile in the Hokage’s office, Hiruzen was watching the class alongside the prospective Jonin senseis, each of them had been chosen by him, either because they had special abilities he considered a necessity or because they had requested to be senseis.
As the time passed the whole group of adults watched as the class waited for Iruka, slowly but surely falling into chaos, the highlight of the moment being Naruto’s and Sasuke’s accidental kiss which ended several chuckles (and one loud laughing) from the Jonin. Aster that however, it was all business as Iruka finally appeared and restored order.
“Welcome everyone, as you know, everyone currently present have proved themselves ready to be genin by passing the academy examination and become full fledged ninja of Konoha. However as genin you’re going to be grouped in a team of 3 under a jonin sensei as your leader” - announced Iruka as he started to go through the teams.
One by one the teams were announced, from Team 1 through Team 6 until it was time for the infamous Team 7 to be announced - “Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno and Yakumo Kurama, you’re going to be grouped as Team 7 under the leadership of jonin Kakashi Hatake”
The announcement was received with cheers from Sakura, disappointment from the other girls (and Naruto who wanted to be with Sakura) and confusion from everyone as no one recognized the one called Yakumo. Meanwhile with the jonin everyone had expected the results of Sasuke and Sakura grouped together under Kakashi, the inclusion of Yakumo had been a surprise, especially for Kurenai due to her personal history with the girl.
“Quiet please” - said Iruka as he continued - “Hinata Hyuuga, Naruto Uzumaki and Sai, you’re going to be grouped as Team 8 under the leadership of jonin Kurenai Yuuhi”
The announcement of the next group however came as a shock to many, beyond the fact no one but Hiruzen having an idea who this Sai kid was, there was also the fact that the Hyuuga heiress had been paired with the village’s number 1 troublemaker. Everyone including Kurenai gulped at the idea, this team had potential to be problematic indeed.
“Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara and Chouji Akimichi, you’re going to be grouped as Team 9 under the leadership of jonin Asuma Sarutobi” - continued Iruka
At the formation of the team everyone snorted, of course the infamous Ino-Shika-Cho would continue after the success of the previous generation and more than one jonin thought “lucky bastard” at Asuma getting to be their sensei.
“Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame and Tamaki, you’re going to be grouped as Team 10 under the leadership of jonin Anko Mitarashi”
“Oh … oh no” couldn’t help but comment on one of the jonin present at the meeting, earning a glare from the snake mistress. Hiruzen for his part was amused, the surprise addition of the three new genin needed another jonin and forcing Anko to be one might actually help him in getting less headaches.
Giving out a small smile as Iruka continued to list the teams, Hiruzen knew this generation was either going to be a complete trainwreck or one of the great ones in the entire history of Konoha with no in between.
==============================
Hiccup: I let the dragon go
Blitzø: What the fuck you mean you let the dragon go, IT’S A DRAGON!
Moxxie: Sir, LANGUAGE!
Blitzø: Tell that to someone that cares Mox!
Moxxie: Sir, I respect you as my boss, BUT IF YOU CONTINUE TO TEXT LIKE THIS IN THIS CHAT I’LL DESTROY YOUR HORSE COLLECTION!
Blitzø: You wouldn’t dare!
Moxxie: I WOULD!
Blitzø: Don’t touch my horse collection!
Moxxie: THEN STOP USING SWEAR WORDS
Blitzø: …
Moxxie: …
Blitzø: … ok
Moxxie: Good thing we managed to get an agreement sir, now Hiccup please explain what happened please
Himiko: Wait, what happened?
Adrien: Currently in class but I’d like to know too
Ruby: Me and Yang are currently helping Jaune with training but I’d like to know
Hiccup: Ok, I … I let the dragon I shot down go
Himiko: … why? Wasn’t it your dream to do THAT?
Hiccup: It’s complicated
Moxxie: How complicated?
Hiccup: Well, like Himiko said, my dream had always been to proof myself to the rest of Berk as a viking in the raid last night I not only managed to shoot down a dragon but THE dragon, the Night Fury, the “son of death and lightning itself” and nobody had ever seen how it looked much less shoot it down!
Moxxie: I see …
Hiccup: Anyways, when I arrived it was trapped in my bola net, completely unable to escape so I got my knife out ready to kill it but … I couldn’t, I just … saw myself in the dragon, scared, trapped, even injured so I just cut the ropes
Ruby: Oh no
Hiccup: Yeah, the dragon, obviously angry, tackles me. I was sure I was going to die but instead of burning or biting me it just roared at my face and ran away.
Adrien: That was too close
Himiko: You could say that again
Blitzø: Oh wow, baby viking fucked up, perhaps next time be a man and kill the damned beast
Moxxie: Sir, don’t speak to anyone in this chat like that
Blitzø: Make me
Moxxie: Your collection sir
Blitzø: Hey! You’re modifying our previous agreement
Moxxie: So don’t give me more reason to modify it further
Blitzø: … ok, FINE
Moxxie: Good to see you can see reason sir, Hiccup please continue
Hiccup: So, I’m now the worst viking EVER, I not only failed to kill a dragon but I LET IT ESCAPE!
Moxxie: Hiccup …
Hiccup: Moxie please, don’t
Moxxie: Sorry Hiccup but I will, I … understand how you feel, I … was in your position once so I can say with confidence, don’t beat up about it, you’ll manage in the future, I know you will
Hiccup: I … thank you Moxxie
Himiko: Do … Do we want to know?
Moxxie: No, you really don’t
Blitzø: You know what, you’re telling me the details later
Moxxie: Horse. Collection
Blitzø: I’ll be good
Ruby: Hiccup, also remember, you’re a very good blacksmith, use that
Hiccup: Yeah, planning to, anyways, I’m now going back to Berk, catch you all later!
Himiko: Anyone with special situations happening now?
Adrien: Well, an Akuma just appeared so i’m going to need to fight it
Ruby: I forgot you were a magical boy now with so many things going on
Adrien: It's nice, also Ladybug is awesome!
Plagg: Kid, less fanboying, I can’t believe I have to be responsible, I was supposed to just drag my feet and eat camembert
Adrien: I guess this is our normal now
Himiko: I think too, also, Izuku is likely already training with All Might
Moxxie: Yeah, lucky kid
Blitzø: Whatever Mox, we have our first contract now, get ready
Moxxie: On it boss
Himiko: Well … at least things can’t get weirder anymore
Notes:
So irl kicked my ass, as always, so sorry for the underwhelming chapter
