《KATANA ~ a MHA fanfic》Chapter 31 - Scarlet sword
Advertisement
Katana shook her feelings off and went back to her jet. As fucked up as it may sound, this was for the best. For her at least.
Even though it wasn't fair to leave them, it wasn't fair of them to ask her to stay either. Everything she knew, she'd learned for the past 5 years. To her it wasn't wrong to kill bad guys and she was absolutely fine with the life she had.
She just wished she didn't have to feel so guilty about it.
They waited for the jet to take off and her sister had passed out on her seat, her father enjoyed a drink and she enjoyed the view of the city lights. The blue eyed assassin turned the TV on and scrolled through the channels.
When she came across a channel where people were applauding, she turned the volume up and listened to what someone announced.
"And now for the hero billboard chart! On the stage we have our top 10 heroes as of today. Starting at number 10..."
10 heroes were standing up on a stage in a packed room. It looked like a city hall, of someplace. The camera zoomed in on the different heroes as they were being named and applauded. It wasn't until they got to the top 5 Katana was curious.
"At number 5 is Shoto! He beats the record of joining the top 5 after less than 2 years of working as a pro!"
It was that hero she kept running into. One of the three heroes Anna and her worked along side with, she almost tensed up when his icy glance met the camera. Though she couldn't deny how beautiful he was, both in her latest vision and now.
"In 4th place, still going strong as a hero, is Endeavour!"

"How is he a hero? He just looks mad." she said quietly.
"Ranked third, who've just recently made a comeback, but an astonishing one, is Lemillion!"
"This one reminds me of that retired hero, All Might." he father suddenly spoke up. Now that she thought about it, he did look like All Might.
"Ranked second, is Suneater! Also from U.A high."
That poor young man didn't seem to like the attention. Katana wanted to punch the camera man for making him feel so uncomfortable, he was just too cute to be treated this way.
"And our number one hero, is none other than HAWKS!"
Now that the girls had been using their quirks a bit, Katana couldn't help but want to copy his quirk one time just to see how those wings would look on her. Though she felt as if she's already done it once.
She turned the TV off and braced herself for takeoff.
At last, they were going home to never return.
Or so she thought.
Only a minute or two up in the air, they suddenly felt the whole plane shake and a loud explosion was heard. It woke Anna up and she found Katana and her father holding on tight to their seats as they looked out the window.
"The plane is crashing, get up and take out the emergency parachutes and jump when I say so!"
Katana went and grabbed Annas first to help her put it on before she put her vest on herself. They went to the door and held onto the wall so that they wouldn't fall out when he opened it.
"On 3..."
The captain walked out with a vest on as well and stood behind them, waiting for Akito to count.
"1... 2... 3!"
They jumped out just a few seconds before the whole plane exploded. The sudden wind sent them all into different directions as they all tried their best not to fall to their death.

Katana pulled the string that opened up her parachute, making her land safe and sound on a rooftop. But when she turned around she was in front of about 10 villains, some of them seemed to be very dangerous.
She rolled her eyes and took off her vest. Looking at them, she tightened her ponytail and cracked her knuckles and neck.
"Let's do this."
Her determined smile seemed to irritate two of them, cause they leaped towards her but she dodged them with ease and used one of them as a shield so that they accidentally killed the other one with their sword.
"Aw, you just killed your friend. That's not nice." she looked at him with puppy eyes before putting her hand in theirs, using the sword to stab himself. He was helpless because of how much stronger than him she was.
She took the sword out of his body and looked to the remaining 8. She called them over to fight with her hand as she stood ready with her sword.
Easily, she fought off the villains who attacked her. After all, swords were her specialty. They never got to use their quirks on her because of her speed and technique.
And then there was only two left.
"I don't have all day you know, so if you'd like to challenge me please do it n-"
She was suddenly struggling with her swords. They were somehow pulling away from her. One of the villains seemed to struggle because of her strong grip, so he used force to finally get her to let go of her swords.
"Telekinesis. Huh."
She stretched her arms and walked closer towards them.
"I was getting bored with just swords anyways. But I'll definitely slice your throat if you do that again..."
A sinister smile spread across her face as she jumped and attacked the telekinesis villain. But it didn't take long for the other one to use her quirk on Katana.
The white haired girl felt how her throat was closing up as a hand wrapped itself around her neck. A woman with bright, green eyes looked at Katana annoyed at the fact that she was able to take out 8 and almost 9 villains easily.
"You know... you're not all that without your weapons." she said and threw her to the ground. She went ahead to grab a sword who belonged to one of the now dead villains.
But just as she was about to stab her right in her chest, she dropped the sword and felt her own throat close up. The other villain who barely made it watched but was confused at the sight.
But he became scared for his life when he saw the angry eyes of the assassin who slowly stood up, picked the sword up and gritted her teeth.
"You know, you're not all that without your quirk." she said mockingly but the darkness in her eyes were of a ruthless assassin.
She stabbed her right in the chest and didn't even bother to turn around to the last villain who was running away. Instead, she used his telekinesis quirk and let the sword do the job, filling the air with his screams.
"Ugh. Got too much blood in my clothes now..." and with that, she jumped down to find her family members.
"They should know not to mess with me when I'm angry. There's a reason why I'm nicknamed 'Scarlet sword' by the assassins back home."

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
