Aviv - Guardian of Time
CRASH!
Just as the knife was about to meet Rena’s chest the window shattered. All Ryker saw was a flash of red as the knife was knocked out of his hand by the feather that came from Rena’s pocket.
“WHAT THE FUCK?” Ryker screamed as he looked up to be met with Hawks’ fist to his face knocking him back a few feet.
Hawks stood in between Ryker and the table where Rena was lying. He just glared at the man who was seconds away from stabbing his best friend.
To break the tension the elevator dinged and out stepped Dabi with a scowl on his face. “I thought I told you not to do anything stupid Kage.”
“I didn’t DO anything. It was all him.” Kage said blankly, nodding his head towards Ryker, who was still on the floor rubbing his face from where Hawks had decked him.
“Still, you let him do something,” Dabi groaned as his fist started to spark his blue flames. “And that pisses me off.”
Hawks turned to face Rena on the table. He noticed the blood on her leg and his heart dropped. He started unbuckling her as Dabi walked towards the other two, warding them off from trying something.
“So it pissed you off so much you brought a Hero with you?” Kage asked.
“Feathers over here is our guy for all the intel on the Heroes. He’s working for the League, or did you forget that?” Dabi sneered, walking up to the scientist's face.
“Honestly, I didn’t even notice him around. I’ve been kind of busy with other things.” Kage answered with a dead expression.
“Other things? Like the special test subject? Who is it?”
“Look for yourself. He’s in there” Kage said, pointing to the large chamber.
Rena and Hawks made eye contact and their eyes went wide. They both slowly turned to look at the chamber. While everyone's attention was on the body floating in the chamber, Ryker stood up and grabbed his knife off the ground. He slowly started walking towards Hawks before he started to sprint.
Rena turned her head in time to see him seconds away from stabbing Hawks in the back.
“HAWKS DUCK!” Rena yelled as she raised her hand and sent out a ball of light as Hawks ducked down just in time. Once it hit Ryker it formed around him, locking him in place.
“What the…” Rena said, looking at her hand. Was that the light form? I haven’t learned that yet though.
“YOU FUCKING BITCH! YOU’RE HERE FOR THE GUARDIAN AREN’T YOU?” Ryker screamed, trying to break free from the light forcefield holding him still.
“What if I am? What are you going to do about it?” she grinned.
Everyone snapped their heads towards Rena.
Guardian? Dabi
She’s not here for me? Kage
Was that magic? Hawks
So she wasn't just protecting that bimbo in Fairy Tail. She was protecting the guardian too. Ryker
They all had a thought to themselves.
“So you do have a quirk,” Dabi smirked.
“I never said I didn't… And technically it's not a quirk,” she said.
“Then what is it?” he asked.
“It's magic.” Ryker sneered. “Because she's not from this world.”
“Huh? You're still going on with that shit? Who'd even believe that crap.” Dabi tossed his hands into the air.
“So I was right then,” Kage mumbled.
Dabi shot his head towards Kage “The fuck you mean you were right?”
“Her readings. I knew she was from another world, just like me.”
This time Ryker and Hawks snapped their heads towards Kage. WAIT WHAT?
“Ha…ha…hahaHAHAHA” Dabi Burst into laughter, with one hand on his face and the other on his stomach. “You all are fucking insane. God this is great. You don't believe this shit do you?” he said looking at Hawks.
Hawks didn't answer and Dabi’s eyes went wide.
“You've got to be kidding me. Do you believe them? Did the bitch brainwash you? You're just as insane as them. God this is hilarious.”
Hawks just narrowed his eyes. “She didn't brainwash me. She gave me solid proof.”
“Heh.. She's got you wrapped around her finger. That's adorable. I knew I couldn't trust you.” he snapped.
Rena stood up off the table. She started to wobble so Hawks wrapped his arm under hers and around her waist so he could hold her up.
“You can trust him. In fact the Intel I was going to give you weeks ago would have proved that. This has nothing to do with Hawks. He just happened to get wrapped up in the middle of it but this” she moved her finger in a circular motion, “has nothing to do with your league’s little plans.”
“Yeah? And how can I trust anything you say? Clearly, you had an alternative motive for joining the league.” Dabi narrowed his eyes.
While Mystic was arguing with Dabi, no one noticed her magic barrier had dropped around Ryker. He took the opportunity and snuck off into the shadows, disappearing from sight.
He pulled out his phone and dialed a number. “Sir. You should get down here quickly. It's getting interesting.” he smirked. “Understood sir, I’ll try and keep them here as long as possible.” He clicked the phone off and snapped his fingers, changing his form into a small mouse, and scurried behind the chamber, unnoticed.
“...it doesn’t matter what my motives were, as soon as I get what I came for I’m leaving. So you won’t need to worry about seeing my face again. I’m sure you’d like that.” Rena snapped at him.
Hawks wings twitched a little at the thought. Sure he knew this wouldn’t last forever but he was still sad at the thought of her leaving. He didn't feel lonely when she was around. He didn’t want to feel that again but he knew he’d have to let her go. She didn’t belong here.
Amongst all the arguing the body in the chamber started to flinch. Suddenly Rena heard Versa in her head. It had been weeks since they had talked so it was a little surprising she chose this moment to speak up.
Rena! It’s him. It’s Aviv! The Guardian of Time.
Rena flinched a little at the surprise. “Yeah I know..” she whispered out loud.
“Huh?” Hawks asked.
“Oh crap.. Didn’t mean to say that out loud.” She covered her mouth with her hand.
Yeah I know, well I knew it was the guardian but not that it was the time one.
I can sense him. He’s waking up.
Rena snapped her head to the chamber. He was a fairly short man with jet-black hair pulled into a loose bun. He was wearing a long black cloak that reached up to his chin. His eyes were white with a dusting of light blue. HIS EYES! THEY WERE OPEN!
Her eyes met the guardian’s. He slowly nodded, then slowly shut them again.
What does that mean??
He knows you’re my host.
How?!
He’s the guardian of Time. He probably looked ahead after I sent everyone away.
“Mystic, are you ok?” Hawks whispered in her ear.
“Yeah, sorry it was V. She was talking to me.” She whispered back.
“The FUCK are you two whispering about?” Dabi snapped. “Wait, where’d that Ryker fucker go?”
Hawks and Rena jerked their head to where he last was and noticed he was gone. “Shit.” they both said as they glanced around trying to find him.
They all heard a snap and suddenly he was leaning against the chamber with his arms folded across his chest. “I’m right here you morons,” he smirked an evil smirk. “And I think it’s time for some FUN.”
He whipped his knife out and stabbed the chamber causing the glass to crack. Everyone watched as the crack rippled across the glass. Ryker stepped away just as the glass burst, releasing all the liquid that was inside causing the body inside to fall to the ground.
The guardian started coughing up the liquid from his lungs. He looked up at Rena and just as he was about to speak…
DING!
The doors to the elevator opened.
Ryker’s smile grew bigger, Hawks’ wings twitched, Dabi rolled his eyes, even Kage flinched an eyebrow, and the hairs on Rena’s arms stood up as someone stepped inside.
