Wings of Fire in MHA

As they left the apartment after a hearty breakfast, Cathleen and Carter dressed in athletic clothes that they had bought the day before started their training with a run. As they started Cathleen decided to push a little since Carter had been able to keep up so far as she didn't want the training to be to easy. As they passed by cars and other people exercising Cathleen picked up the pace as she spoke, "Since i'm going to be training you I expect you to be able to go above and beyond others your age, and since I am a part of the military and other important things here in the U.S I won't always be with you so today we'll be pushing your limits so that I can get a plan laid out for you, this will include a food plan and you'll get an allowance each month to spend as you see fit." Carter nodded as this was to be expected he was being trained by the number 1 hero in the U.S after all, but her next words didn't bring as much pleasure "After a month though you will have to go to school though, since we can't have someone with potential like your running around not knowing what to do. However since I am a hero I can pull some strings and get you into a hero school, even the one in Japan if you want." she said as she picked up the pace again and Carter had to strain a little to keep up with her.

He had been to school before and the course work wouldn't be a problem, the problem would be all the little snotty kids that would most likely distance themselves from him due to his aversion to associating with those whom he would outlive, but he had to admit being a hero sounded like a nice change of pace, better he help people and unlock all his power than try and further his revenge when he had no idea where he was. "What's the best hero school in the world?" he asked since he knew that with his powers he could probably get into any school he wanted, "The one in Japan, it's called U.A they've got a silly moto 'Plus Ultra' but they have the best teachers and the current number one hero of Japan went there and even helped out a bit here in the states, so they got the whole 'hero school' thing figured out." she said as she finally started to slow down and they came to a stop outside of a large gym, taking deep breaths and a drink of water Carter entered behind her as he thought 'U.A huh, wonder if it'll be anything like before.'

As Cathleen went through the process of setting up their gym membership, Carter opened up the system to see that several things had changed.

Seeing as it now had several new things he asked the system why it had changed, 'As the system is an organism it is constantly adapting, this new format is just a way to keep progress of hosts health and progress with bloodlines as well as they different abilities host will gain in the future.' It made sense but something still bugged him so he asked 'Why do you only show things related to dragons, what about all my other powers or are they sealed?' 'Host is correct, once they have been unsealed and you use them then they will automatically be added to system interface but until then this is all there is.' 

Putting that aside for the moment as he and Cathleen walked though the gym and she took them straight to several machines, leg presses, arm curls, squat rack and even free weights, she didn't spare him anything as she demonstrated the various form for different muscle groups that she wanted him to focus on and once they were done she said two words that would make him miserable for the rest of the week "Leg Day!" she said with a malicious grin as Carter and several other gym goers who were in earshot shrunk in fear as even in her 'civilian' form Cathleen was still a very strong women with plenty of muscles on her and if her large thighs were anything to go off of, Carter would be lucky to make the run back to the apartment.

ONE LEG DAY LATER

Cathleen had pushed Carter to the extreme after she saw how strong he was and didn't hold back at all, she put him though every. single. machine. and to end their session she made him use the StairMaster for ten whole minutes once they were done, that alone had been worse than everything else combined he thought as they jogged home, a much needed break from the run they had this morning. As they jogged Cathleen talked about different things that he would have to do once school started and who he should contact if there was a problem while she was off doing her duty. Once they reached home Carter collapsed onto his bed exhausted as Cathleen had jumped into the shower before him, as he waited he thought with dread of how he was going to keep up with school and training, but remembering his goal to get into U.A he jumped up and started to experiment with his dragon abilities since they would have to grow with him.

As he went into the living room for a bit more space he flexed his back and his wings unfurled, they were large and reptilian, covered in midnight black scales with a line of white scales that ran along where his wings met his back, looking at them in front of a mirror he reached out and grazed his finger along the white scales, they were icy cold almost like touching ice, intrigued he asked the system to explain 'Since the hosts original dragon blood was severely neglected it had to be supplemented with strong dragon blood to make up for the deficiency, your NightWing blood comes from a NightWing animus dragon named Darkstalker.' It sounded like a bit of a creepy name but it had a nice ring to it Carter admitted as he curled his tail around and toyed with the end then letting it go he flexed his hands and watched as his claws sprung out as ebony black scales appeared all the way up to his elbow and tapping them lightly he felt they were hard but still had a bit of youthful softness in them.

After experimenting some more with his wings and claws he put his claws away but decided to leave his wings and tail out as they felt more comfortable, by now Cathleen had finished her shower and was now rummaging in the kitchen to start cooking lunch "I know you look cool and all but I can smell you from here so go take a shower." she told him as he scampered up the stairs and picked out his clothes before jumping in the shower, he turned to hot water and had to stop from groaning from how good the water felt on his sore muscles but quickly went about cleaning himself before getting out and changing.

Once he was done with his shower he looked at his status again and asked his system 'So how does the animus magic work?' he asked it as it gave no description on how to use it 'Animus magic is very simple to use, simple pick up an object and enchant it with whatever you want, this also applies to living things as well but the price if a piece of your soul for large spells of those that are cast with evil intentions.' it said as it gave him a warning. Intrigued he looked around his room but since he had just moved in he was just looking around an empty room that he would have to fill on his own with time. "Lunch is ready." Cathleen called from the kitchen, walking in Carter looked at the chicken and rice that she had made and had a feeling he would be eating that for a while.

As they sat down and ate Cathleen talked about how being a hero in the U.S was different from other countries and things that he should be aware of when he got to U.A as the Japanese customs were vastly different from those in the states. Once they were done and had washed the dishes Cathleen turned to Carter "Lets go to the store, the knifes that were already here suck and are super dull so i'm gonna buy some new ones." she said as Carter got an idea and walked over to the knife that was sitting in its holder on the counter, picking it up he remembered what the system said and, "I enchant this knife to be perfectly sharp and never dull,break or degrade." he said as he felt a small shiver run up the base of his spine, the knife still looked the same but still not giving up he handed it to Cathleen for her to test on something, taking the knife she looked at him like he was crazy before shrugging her shoulders and taking out an apple from the fridge, and with almost no resistance it sliced right through the knife . . . and her finger as it started to bleed and she quickly sat down the knife before throwing the apple away as Carter ran over with a small first aid kit that Cathleen had insisted on buying.

As she applied pressure she looked down at him with raised eyebrows "Mind explaining how a few words from you turned a dull knife that could barely cut chicken into a knife that could slice through my skin and an apple?" she asked as Carter stared at the ground sheepishly, looking up at her he decided to just be honest "I'm an animus." he said as she deadpanned and he remembered that that word most likely meant nothing to her, "It's magic." he explained as she applied a bandaid to the cut on her finger while asking question about his newfound 'magic'. After that they went around the house and started to 'logically' experiment on things they found, a pair of dumbells that adjusted their weight according to how strong the person holding them was, when Cathleen picked them up the number on the side changed to 125 lb and when Carter picked the other up it read 75 lb, satisfied they moved onto other thing, a blanket that was always the perfect temperature, a pen that would write whatever they told it to, a couple of cups and bottles that would fill with any liquid asked for, even a pillow that was always fluffed and the right size for whoever laid their head on it, needless to say they had an interesting time experimenting with his animus powers but they kept all the spells small and simple, once they were done and looked at the time they saw that it was already time for sleep.

As they were brushing their teeth Cathleen turned to Carter with a serious explession, "Carter no matter what, don't ever tell anyone about your power, I'm sure you already know why." she said as he nodded "They'll try to take me and use me to make weapons for them or cut me open in a lab to try and take my power for themselves." he said as she nodded grimly then smiled tussling his hair "Just making sure you know what's a steak." she said as she closed the door to her room and carter closed the door to his. As he lay in bed and relaxed under the enchanted blanket he was glad he had chosen to stay with Cathleen and wished everyday would be like this one as he drifted off to sleep.

A/N: Hey now we got animus powers baby! Got a time skip coming up but it won't be that long you'll see. Give me power stones!!
