Dark World and Dark Alley - Season 1 - Chapter 24 (27)
Writing this right after the last, in the mood I guess, actually now that I think about it this is 3 in one day
ALSO, I recently hit a total combined count 123K+ Views, now a lot of these are from WebNovel were someone simply takes a small glance at my book and I only get about 80 or so actual views per chapter. But even then for something I'm doing for fun I'm just glad that people enjoy my work, plus I hit 800+ (Votes/Powerstones/Kudos) or Likes.
I'm happy any of you enjoy my book, I do this for free and simply like to vent random ideas and thought I come up with and this story has helped my mental state.
I've been doing my best to actually reply to all comments that mention a question, a simple nice little comment, or something I find funny. I've actually noticed a couple people consistently come back and I'm happy that you do.

MC POV
"Sure I don't mind"
Tokoyami, having asked to talk with me, leads me to a side hallway alone.
"So what did you need Tokoyami?", I put on my over jacket and roll up my sleeves comfortably.
"Actually it wasn't me who wanted to talk to you but Dark Shadow", from his shirt a black and purple bird like shadow with yellow eyes comes out.
"Plug your ears big guy", Tokoyami puts on a pair of headphones and plays some music.
"So birdo what did you need".
"First of all don't call me that, second it's about what happened yesterday and something that's been bother me about you for a long time now"
He immediately peaks my interest, "and what's that".
"The fact that you aren't human that's what"
Hearing him say this I tense up, "w..what do you mean", is it possible he knows something.
When I first saw the distorted lettering in the System I was bothered by it, but I still didn't like it. To be honest it's been eating at me a bit but I was told I would get answers so I only hoped for the best.
"Can't say I know for sure, if it's not obvious I'm not human either, I'm a sentient quirk who originates from the big guy, but I didn't get created by him I only was created for the person who would wield the quirk.
I refrain from answering and only listen.
"I originate from shadows, hence my name, when I came to be I was given some form and tied to this quirk until Tokoyami awakened me, but I wasn't originally in the 'material' world and instead resided in what I'll call the Shadow World. A sort of limbo, for years I couldn't see into that realm again, but when the Omaezaki Incident happened a change on that side occurred, when Tokoyami was conceived I could actually still look into it if I tried. Then you went berserk and something changed, something allowed me to tap into it without trying, even to this minute I can see into it if I want and when I look at you I don't see a human, I'm seeing something else. Can't say if that something is good or not, but what ever it is it's strong, you need to be careful with the amount of energy surrounding you, you will start affecting everything you come across"
A minute or so passes.
"This Dark World or Shadow World, can you tell me about it?"
"What else is there to say about it? It's dark made of shadows similar to myself, before my Tokoyami being conceived I lived in it, then the Incident happened a while before his birthday, a huge hole appeared and energy, a seeable energy, expanded throughout the entire world and even further beyond."
"I see.... thank you, I appreciate the information. I need some time to think", Dark Shadow gives me a nod as he nudges Tokoyami and heads off.
'What the hell was he talking about'
{"He is referencing the Spiritual Realm, or something similar to it. I can show you a bit about it later, it wouldn't be good to do it now"}
'I thought you couldn't help me when it comes to my past.'
{"I can help just to certain extents, I would only be giving you a one time glimpse into that world, not a very difficult task as you could theoretically do it yourself... To certain extents. I will explain it better when we start it."}
I let out a long sigh as I lean against the wall letting my heart calm down.
"Everything alright", from my right Setsuna walks down the hall.
"Yeah just thinking about somethings, don't worry if anything it I managed to find a way to shed some light on a couple things", Setsuna walks up beside me.
"Alright, don't work to hard though, you should take things a bit slow after what just happened, no one would blame you", as Setsuna finishes talking I put my hand on her head and ruffle her hair.
"HEY! It takes a while to do my hair you can't just ruin it", we both just stare at each other before bursting out laughing.
"Sorry, I just couldn't help it you just looked cute worrying about me. Though I think you're right, I'll do my best to not overexert myself until I'm completely recovered", Setsuna walks up beside me and wraps my her arm around mine as I stare at her.
"You sure?", she nods her head.
"I don't mind others knowing, plus it's not like we're violating any rules, simple hand holding and stuff is allowed as long as it's not a big problem or causes problem", hearing her response I decide to reciprocate by pulling her a bit closer as we head back to class, a couple of our classmates staring at us.
I was never one to care how others looked at me when it came to stuff like this, so I won't start now.
I doubt Setsuna is one to care too much either, if anything she probably wants to show us off, like some kind of trophy she can enjoy presenting, not the type you would plaster on every corner but one your appreciative off and happy to obtain.
"Since when were you two a thing", Mina is the first to speak up stealing the seat in front of myself.
I glance towards Setsuna seeing if she wants to take this one, woman can be dangerous if you say the wrong thing after all.
"Two days and I won't go into detail about it".
"Alright alright, wasn't asking just surprising, then again you two were immediately close to one another and after you know, he is quite the knight in shining armor", Mina gives one of her joke teases as she pokes Setsuna, having gotten up from her seat.
"You should've seen how we met-", the two of them start talking, eventually delving into some random girl stuff...I think, kind of hard to hear them seeing as how they're actively whispering so I can't hear.
Women....☕
(THIS IS A JOKE, I'm not taking chances with Gmail's, Email's, and every other letter in this box.)
The day continues on without much happening other than a couple more questions regarding either my well being or me and Setsuna.
Before I get out of the school Snipe stops me.
"Kiddo, mind if I stop ya there for a second", Snipes Texan like accent or country accent, can't quite tell, stops me in my tracks.
"Oh Snipe, sure what do you need", I give a little wave bye to Setsuna, her having decided to head home to let her mom know she was doing better, though she still on occasion shows some fatigue.
"You remember my mentioning my friend right?"
"Yeah the skilled one you thought matched my style better"
"Yeah well after ya know the incident. Which by the way even if you did get hurt I'm happy to hear my teaching even slightly helped out. But as I was saying, the friend was impressed with your actions and offered to come pay a visit to the school, they've been thinking of taking a teaching job up but never had the time too or reason too", Snipe and I are left alone, for the most part, at the entrance of the school.
"So I should expect to meet this friend soon?", he nods, "Alright, I will say I would like to take it some what easy but will definitely like to meet them."
"Understandable, even though most teachers, like Eraserhead, will still try to push you I hope you know that we all attempt to have your best interest in mind and understand some of what your going through. You ever need to talk or just be near someone my doors always open", I give Snipe a smile.
"Thanks I appreciate the offer, will definitely keep it in mind. But I do need to get home I had some stuff I needed to think about and still a bit exhausted", Snipe gives me a nod as I head off.
As I head home I notice an odd feeling go down my back, as if something is calling me.
'What is this'
{"An individual with an animal quirk or just a regular animal is calling out you, specifically to your right"}
'You can tell that'
{"Yes, your presence is what it's specifically calling out to, plus you could've noticed it yourself in a couple seconds."}
I nod as I decide to see what exactly is calling for me.
Walking to my right I find an alley as I walk down it, with a carefulness in my step, as I come across a dog, at least it look similar to a dog.
It's a thick grey fur coated dog, it's something between a mix of a German Shepard and Siberian Husky though a young one, one I could hold in my arms quite easily.
(Thick as in the fur being rough, I know it's not something I have to say but still)
As I watch it I take note of the other things. First, it's eyes are a ruby red (Left) and a glowing green (Right). Second, it has a bit of blood coming from it, it's back legs slightly limping.
I quickly move near it, "Are you alright little guy {"Girl"}... Are you alright little guy".
(My Guy, Dude, and Bro are definitely Gender Neutral, Fight me)
The dog attempts to shift into my arms but it falls to the floor.
"No need I've got you, I can't leave just leave you alone, wouldn't be very heroic and all that", I lift the puppy as I head to take it to my house, there aren't any hospitals in the immediate area.
'System, this dog what's with it's eye.. it isn't a-'
{"Yes it's a quirk, after the world got stronger quirks themselves got immediate boost in power unlike people's physical abilities which only got their potential boosted. Do to quirk's getting boosted more people or animals which had quirks on the verge of awakening got their quirk forcefully awakened, including animals."}
'I see, actually quick question quirks are stronger, but I haven't noticed an insane amount of natural destruction from most quirks, only a couple things here and there'
{"Yes quirks themselves did get stronger, but I specifically said the World got stronger, when I say world I'm referencing the World of「My Hero Academia 」the universe you are in, so the entire universe is getting stronger including the planets themselves."}
'Huh nifty, I won't have to worry about the planet possibly getting blown up in the future, ah right is it possible for you to tell me the strength of others and if so, the Nomu'
{Status:
Tano Arata <+1 Other>
Tier: 7-C (Town Level)
Speed: High Hypersonic (Mach 17)
Quirks: <Click to see more>}
Seeing the Nomu's stats I only feel shock, this thing is just stronger and faster than me, my armor is probably the only reason I didn't just die on the spot.
'How did I stand a chance against that thing, maybe if I used that?'
{"If you had used your guns secret move you might have been able to defeat it, but if missed you would've lost still, but when I granted you Tainted Corruption you finally stood a chance, though you should focus on getting the dog to help instead of talking to me"}
'Right... yeah' "Sorry little guy"
Quickly returning back I get out our first-aid kit, taking the dog to the kitchen, as I noticed Fuyumi walk in.
"Oh my! What happened to the poor thing", Fuyumi immediately rushes over attempting to help.
"Don't know just found her in an alley it-", as I stare at her eyes I notice the glow gone as it's right eyes is closed.
"Well lets get her patched up first, we can't leave the poor thing in pain".
Fuyumi ends up doing most of the work having past medical experience from helping her brothers and me relying on my fragments.
"Well she should be fine for now", Fuyumi puts the kit back up before turning to me.
"Now how are you, I heard a bit from Shoto and matrons here but not to much", she notices the scars on my body.
"I'm doing better, honestly a bit tired from hearing the question throughout the day. But what about you, how are you doing having to deal with Todoroki... Your brother."
"I'm doing fine Shoto wasn't injured at all so I don't have to worry about him, I'm honestly more worried about you and these scars, Shoto was a bit shaken up after coming back, but it was only when I mentioned you...", she gives me a worried look.
"I... I don't know apparently I did something after I was sent unconscious, still putting the pieces together", I get a cold glass of tea slowly sipping it.
"Well I'm here for you, I've dealt with my fair problems and assisted other in theirs", she gives me that same smile she always has when talking about stuff like this.
"Thanks, I'm gonna have to get my thoughts in line first then think about it, first I should take care of the little one and maybe rest a little. Mind telling the any of the Matrons, I know they don't particularly care about animals as we have had a few but I don't want to here shouting about a dog appearing out of no where", Fuyumi gives me a nod as I pick up the furball and take it back to my room.
Just another thing to deal with.
