Flashback

_Monogatari
Born in Kirigakure to an exiled Uchiha and a rogue member of the shunned Akizuki clan, Yūto was condemned to a life filled with strife from the start. Perhaps it was that cruel twist of fate which made him the way he is. The reform in Kirigakure was already in full swing at the time of his birth, separating him from his father before he could even walk, not that he would have remembered. With his lineage kept hidden from even himself, he was able to avoid initial involvement in the Enclave project and being trapped within the Sixth Mizukage’s gilded cage. Yūto’s earliest memory was of chaos and bloodshed; near the beginning of the Kirigakure Civil War.

When the rebellion over the Enclave project took off, Yūto’s mother ensured he was left out of it. It was a solution that would only work so long as his Kekkei Genkai never manifested, a fact that grew less certain by the day. To further increase his chances of survival if the worst-case scenario came to pass, Yūto enrolled in the shinobi academy, wherein he had to participate in the infamous Brood Feast graduation exam. It was there, faced with the inevitable act of taking a life those in power had deemed lesser, that he was confronted with the crushing weight of his accidie.

Unfortunately, it didn’t take long after that for the worst to come to pass. At the height of the rebellion and following the discovery of his parentage, Yūto and his mother were faced with a choice; submit to the Mizukage’s authority or flee the country before the situation devolved too far. It was a choice between certain enslavement and possible freedom; a choice that was made without a second thought. That plan, however, was far easier to accomplish in theory than in practice. The journey from Kirigakure to the Land of Fire was long and treacherous, but eventually, it was over and salvation was in sight.

The arrival to Konoha came with its own share of issues. While Yūto’s capacity to utilise two separate bloodlines made him a valuable asset to the Uchiha clan, his mother’s previous transgressions were not so easily forgiven. Inserted into the shinobi ranks of Konoha, it didn’t take long before Yūto was made a member of the ANBU, wearing the mask of a raven.

_Kokoronaka
Yūto was someone who could only ever be accurately described as impassive. Since birth, he has been emotionally isolated from the rest of the world. Intelligent but detached, he views the world and its inhabitants—himself especially—from an outsider’s perspective, thoughtful yet dispassionate. Despite his unshakeable poker face and dry wit, it would be wrong to say he lacks emotion, even if his actions may say otherwise. Above all else, Yūto is fascinated with the unpredictability of life to its extreme, the only thing that elicits something other than utter apathy.

Syl

_{[ ❇ ] N A M E}

Syl Archer, Kalos Region Championship Winner

_{[ ❇ ] O C C U P A T I O N}

---

Pokemon Researcher/Trainer. Winner of the Indigo League and the Ever Grande Conference

_{[ ❇ ] B A C K S T O R Y}

---

Born to a highly-regarded researcher and a world-renowned Coordinator, Syl was surrounded by Pokemon since the day he was born. Despite the considerable requirements of his parents’ professions, it could never be said that he was neglected in his childhood. As an only child, his parents never failed to dote on him and encourage his every endeavour no matter how fleeting, fostering his curiosity about the world as the years passed. It was little wonder, then, that Syl ended up following in his mother’s footsteps in his own way after meeting a particular Eevee.

While originally hailing from Unova, Syl’s Pokémon journey did not officially begin until he arrived in Kanto as a research assistant to the renowned Professor Oak. Despite his somewhat odd start, his accumulated knowledge and experience allowed him to quickly build himself up to become a force to be reckoned with. After enduring various trials and clashing with his self-proclaimed rival numerous times throughout his journey, he decided to take up the challenge of the Indigo League. In the end, Syl succeeded in his endeavour, defeating his rival and eventually claiming victory in the championship after a hard-fought battle.

Following his victory, he began his journey anew in the Hoenn Region with his trusted partner at his side. Though his first attempt to challenge the Ever Grande Conference nearly ended with his loss against its Elite Four, Syl managed to emerge victorious after a fierce, uphill battle. Deciding to take a slow down from championships after travelling to Kalos, Syl joined Professor Sycamore in researching Mega Evolution and obtained a Keystone of his own, using his newfound breakthrough to challenge the Kalos Region champion. Though the battle ultimately ended in a draw, that did little to discourage the people from seeing him as a champion, in ability if not in name, until his eventual rematch and victory. Despite his win, Syl chose not to officially take on the title of champion, leaving the responsibility to Diantha. Then, while deep into research, Syl received a surprise invitation to attend the Pokétopian Foundation’s battle resort grand opening. And so, he set off on a brand new journey, one unlike any other.

Sarcastic and quick-witted with a sharp tongue and no filter, Syl can be either irritating or endearing in equal measure depending on his mood. Despite, or perhaps because of, his often spontaneous and constantly multi-tasking nature, he always manages to keep a cool head, no matter the situation. Adventurous and curious beyond measure, he loathes being tied down, viewing the world through an inquiring lens and rarely taking things at face value. A tactical trainer with a penchant for elaborate plays, Syl enjoys the rush of battle just as much as he does the act of interacting with Pokémon itself.

All in all, he is a rather energetic and thoughtful person, if a bit insensitive about boundaries, whether through choice or by nature.

Born to a seemingly mundane family in a seemingly mundane community, Sora had always been different from other children. Precocious and adventurous, always moving from one thing to another, he never kept his focus on one thing for long. It helped his development greatly but also made him something of a headache for his parents.

At the tender age of 6, Sora’s Quirk awakened and his hometown was awash with a brilliant show of light, illuminating the city like an earthbound star. It was to the point people began to call it the Day of Stars. Of course, such an event could not go unnoticed, especially not by the Hero Commission. Fortunately for the young boy, his family was not so easily cowed and he was able to remain out of their clutches.

To that end, Sora joined his grandparents overseas to develop his Quirk and form connections for the future. With their knowledge of his Quirk, or at least, a version of it they were familiar with, Sora grew his skills before returning to Japan to further his education. Enrolling into Shiketsu High, he consistently remained at the top of his class until his graduation, wherein he decided to forgo joining an agency.

After obtaining his official hero license at the age of seventeen, Sora started his own Hero Agency. Despite being on the smaller side, he grew the agency steadily over the years into a force to be reckoned with. Brandishing their slogan, “Shine bright and let the whole world see your splendour!” with pride, they earned a reputation for having a near-perfect success rate at solving crimes.

Sora is laid-back and sociable while being self-confident and aloof, and always ready with a light smirk and witty line.

While flippant and uncaring of appearing polite to others at the best of times, Sora is still, without a doubt, unmatched in his field. In public, he tends to go solely by his hero name.

Yui Kazuma

Yui was.... well, not tired exactly, his Quirk ensured that, but the past few hours had been quite hectic for the mind. Despite all the adversaries they faced, the day had been won, though not in a way that he could consider a true victory. After all, Keyaru had escaped custody and most of his classmates were out of action due to injury of some kind, so the only real win was the fact that they were alive. And the whole fiasco with the police after the fact hadn’t helped matters. Fortunately, their senpai had managed to get them off their backs before anything.... untoward happened.

Now, though, Yui found himself sitting before his homeroom teacher with a few of his classmates. She began with a speech about the professors who had gone missing over the school year and that she didn’t want to be one of them—obviously. She ended it with a useless platitude about them being safe. Safety was relative, not to mention boring. He supposed the others might find it comforting.

Then, Ravens—or, Yatagarasu Hisora, he supposed—turned her attention to him and hit him with a question he had been unfortunately expecting, if not quite so soon.

Yui didn’t answer her immediately, mulling the question over and considering his words carefully. His battery was low, but he could afford to take his time a little here. From her perspective, he’d have only paused for a moment before responding anyway.

“.... I know that they exist, but not much else, I’m afraid,” the lie spilt from his lips easily as he gave a nonchalant shrug, “Why do you ask, sensei?”

A ghost of a smile spread across his lips at the hero’s use of his name as he waited.

《 Super H.E.R.O. 》

[ 𝑅𝒾 𝓁 𝑒𝓎 ]

---

---

_{H.E.R.O. One, Savior Island, Castleburg.}

---

Riley was not what one would call a morning person.

Waking up early was something he’d had enough of more than a decade ago. Schedules were for people with no say in their lives and he wasn’t one to keep any ever since he took his life into his own hands. Besides, sleeping in late was a luxury, and he intended to take full advantage of it whenever possible, even if his joints didn’t agree with him after the fact. Sure, it would have been more comfortable to actually sleep in his own room, but then he wouldn’t have been able to work on his projects as effectively. It was safer for everyone that he didn’t saturate the housing area with deadly radiation several times a day.

That would be counter-productive.

Unfortunately for Riley, machines cared very little for his personal misgivings.

A soft groan left his lips as he dragged his face away from his desk, blinking wearily at his beeping watch. He glared at the device, wishing he could turn it off with his mind.

If looks could kill, he would–

No, he could do that, but that would just be even more of a hassle. Destroying H.E.R.O. equipment was something he could only do so many times before it became more than just a nuisance. Instead, he simply turned it off, dropping his face unceremoniously back onto his desk to happily snooze the day away–

.... Ugh.

He only managed to ignore it for a few minutes more before eventually lifting his head once again to level a glare at his watch. His gaze dropped and he sighed, finally deciding to answer the alert.

“Alright, I get it.”

Right. He supposed it was time to be a hero.

With another sigh, Riley straightened his less-than-stellar posture, his joints cracking all the way. He was almost definitely going to regret his poor sleeping habits later, but that was a problem for future Riley. It was going to suck for him.

Onto less depressing thoughts; there were multiple reasons why the basement floor was better than his room, comfort notwithstanding. The most obvious was, of course, the far greater amount of space it afforded him. Less obviously, but just as important in his eyes, was the fact that his bike could also fit down there without having to be brought up several storeys. A fact that made it that much more convenient to take it out for a ride whenever the mood struck.

Today, however, the “mood” in question was a far more dire one than usual.

When Riley arrived at the scene of the incident, he had to pause for a moment. An image flashed before his eyes; of boiling flesh and screaming people burning in nu–

He averted his gaze for a moment and let out a shuddering sigh. That time was long over and dwelling on it wouldn’t help anyone now. Focusing on the now, he allowed his eyes to wander over the scene of destruction. Landslides were a destructive force of nature that were hard to predict at the best of times. Sometimes, that had consequences for those who were unfortunate enough to be living close by when one happened.

Riley took a look around at everyone else who had made their way to the area. There were only a few others at the moment, but time wasn’t exactly on their side. Never mind whether or not the survivors would last much longer underneath the rubble; they could never be completely sure that another landslide wouldn’t happen with how unstable the terrain had become after the first.

The homeless-looking hero had seemingly been the first person on the scene and had seen out beacons to find survivors. Magic really was helpful....

“Da. Copy that.”

After confirming that he’d heard the wizard’s words, Riley carefully made his way around the devasted area, searching for any sign of glowing coins. The place was covered in so much dirt and rubble that it was hard to believe there had once been houses there.

Stopping over a particularly large mound of rubble, he took another glance at the coin hovering above it. With a steadying breath, he crouched down and placed a bare palm on the ground. Dirt and stone crumbled beneath his touch, the spread accelerating over time until there was nothing left but dust, the best he could do without causing more harm than good.

Once the rubble was clear, Riley reached into the hole and pulled out an unconscious little girl, taking care to keep his fingers from touching her. He didn’t keep her for long, passing her off to a nearby firefighter as soon as he could. As he turned away to continue his rescue effort, he could hear a woman sobbing in relief behind him, muttering words of gratitude he intentionally tuned out.

Don’t think about it too much. Just rinse and repeat.

Regalia

_{[Location] Landow, Estren
[Time] Sunday, 6:30 AM
[Interactions] N/A}

Liza was wandering.

It was an opportunity she rarely had, busy as she usually was. Some envied her position, blissfully unaware of the workload it brought. She flowed between the waves of people gathering around the known Regalia, watching their interactions with a calm smile. The Festival of Lights was a grand event, filled with bustling crowds of people who came to meet them with all sorts of intentions. Her eyes drifted to the scene of a couple begging the Regalia of Ultima for healing.... some were more desperate than others, it seemed. They were rejected, of course, as per the festival’s rules, though the Regalia sent them off rather warmly if one ignored the revulsion he displayed for the husband’s touch. It was doubtful, however, that anyone else was paying such close attention to the young man’s behaviour. It was nothing surprising.

Again, Liza wandered.

More and more Regalia were arriving, and thus the crowd grew ever more compact as most everyone clamoured for their attention, or at least to witness them in the flesh. She nimbly sidestepped any “attempts” to push her aside and put a bit of distance between herself and the rest, keeping away from the notice of the main crowd. The attention that the Regalia received proved once again her choice to remain separate from the others was the correct one to make. It was more of a detriment than anything else, even if she didn’t have a job that required some measure of secrecy. Such was the way of the–

Liza paused in her thoughts, raising a delicate hand to brush across her earring. She stepped further away from the rest of the crowd, moving closer to the outskirts of the festival.

“Hai?”

A voice came over from the earpiece, high-pitched and almost jittery with worry, “Usui-sama, where are you? Why aren’t you on your way back?”

Liza tilted her head to the side, her eyes scanning the crowd half-heartedly as she answered her junior, “Just taking a small stroll in Landow. Is something the matter, Shizu-chan?”

“No, I just–” Shizu cut herself off with a sigh, and Liza could just imagine the younger woman running a hand through her dishevelled red hair, as usual. It was a poor habit to foster if one that was rather tame, all things considered. Even still, the importance of decorum could not be understated, so it was a habit she would need to rid herself of nonetheless.

“You were worried.”

It wasn’t a question but merely a simple statement of fact. The sound of something crashing to the floor came over the earpiece and a muffled curse followed it. For a handful of seconds, only a soft shuffling could be heard, but even that stopped in short order.

“.... Shizu-chan?”

Liza’s smile dimmed slightly when nothing but silence answered her. How odd. Perhaps the line had gotten disconnected? No, the device was still on. The young woman on the other end just wasn’t saying anything anymore.

“.... did you say you were in Landow? I heard the Festival Lights is happening this time of year. I’ve never actually been to one though. How is it there?”

Changing the subject, I see. Very well.

The deflection was obvious, but Liza chose to simply go along with it. Embarrassing the poor girl any further wouldn’t lead to anything good now. That could wait until later when she was actually present and they were not separated by an entire continent.

“Hm, it is quite the spectacle, to be sure. Regalia from all over have gathered in celebration of a shared vanity.” Though her words were somewhat disdainful, her expression was anything but. Liza watched the people bustling about the Regalia and their Dominants’ shrines, some more so than others, with a faint smile. Ultima’s shrine in particular had two Regalia gathered around it, and another individual that wasn’t quite as standout, despite being the centre of their attentions. Over near the harbour, another three conversed amongst themselves. Interesting.

Shizu was a bit thrown off by the description and found herself cringing at her own inquiry. In all honesty, she truly should have expected such a response. Her next question was much in the same vein, though more directed, “Oh. Um, are you having fun, at least?”

Liza was quiet for a moment before giving a reply, “In a manner of speaking. I–”

Oh? What is this?

A sudden shift caught her attention and she tilted her head to the left as if listening for something. Whatever it was eventually led her gaze to the source of the disturbance. A woman with a painted face and a large sword slung across her back. She hadn’t been there when Liza was looking before. Another noteworthy Cetrite, though one not quite as tainted as the first.

“A stranger in a strange place. How.... interesting.”

“What was that?”

Liza’s smile widened ever so slightly, though Shizu couldn’t see it, “Just an observation.”

And then there was one.
