Wings of Fire in MHA

Cathleen POV-

When she had told the boy what the plan that the military had in mind for him he was surprisingly cooperative she had expected him to at least try and argue for a better deal but he was happy to go with her down to the adoption center, of course she couldn't go as Star so she had canceled the order that made her so large and had changing into civilian attire, she also noticed that the boy didn't seem surprised by her new form and when she asked him about it he had simply said "I knew it was you.". Other than that the only problem was picking a new name for him, she was horrible at naming things and so she had asked him on the car ride there "Before the process can be finished we need a name for you, I'd give you one but I suck at naming things and the military would probably give you a number or something patriotic so you get to pick your new name." she said glancing at the boy as he ate a burger from a fast food place they had stopped at outside the hospital, finishing his bit he turned to her and asked "What's your name?" "Cathleen" she told him as she took the last turn before their destination. The car was quiet save for the sound of the engine and the boy eating and right as they stopped outside the center he spoke up "Carter is my name."

Cathleen's apartment Carter POV-

As he entered Cathleen's apartment he was surprised to see how empty it was, based of her hero persona he half expected the place to be bright and full of various training equipment but instead the place was quite spartan, with bare walls and little to no color other than the T.V that was displaying the news of Star requiring the children from the cult, not that anyone had recognized it as one yet as they had hidden everything very well and most things had been taken with their leader when he fled. As he walked into the kitchen he opened the fridge and saw that it was empty, not discouraged he continued to look around in the pantry and all the cabinets to try and find something to eat other than the bland hospital food. At some point Cathleen had come in as well in her 'normal' form and sighed 'Yeah sorry bout that, just moved in here so I guess we'll head out to the store to get some food, and some clothes too gotta use the governments money for something." she said with a chuckle as the piled back into the car and headed off.

As they pulled into the massive parking lot Carter was astounded at how large it was, noticing his amazement Cathleen chuckled "Never been to a Walmart before kid?"(A/N I dont own walmart) Carter just shook his head as she took his head and led him inside while talking "Yeah they're pretty huge, plus they got everything, food clothes entertainment other necessities and in some locations they even sell g*ns." she said sounding proud "It's why they're called supercenters" she said as they entered and Carter saw the rows and rows of . . . everything actually from where he was he could see a large selection of foods on one side and several large ails fulls of clothes and many other items it was a sight to behold.

Cathleen POV-

As they went through the store and picked out the food they were going to eat for the next week, Cathleen started to notice something. As they walked through the store several people stopped and complimented the boy for his looks and would talk to her for a bit before moving on and several older ladies had even given him a bunch of hard candies that he had shared with her as they finished with the food and moved on to the food, but what had caught her attention was how he would close himself off from others, men, women and children were given the same blank stare but when he looked at her he would be full of life and so she started to wonder why he was shutting others out, was it an emotional response to some hidden trauma he had or was it something. She continued to monitor him as they picked out several pairs of clothes and shoes that he would wear and train in for the next few years. Once they were done with this they went back to the front of the store and checked out with Carter making a face at the price tag on everything. 

Once they got back to the apartment and got all the bags in Cathleen voiced her concerns as they started to put the food away. "Carter, I notices that you refrained from interacting with others at the store, are you ok?" she asked while putting the milk in the fridge while Carter was busy with the non-perishables. "Promise not to tell anyone?" he asked and she nodded "I don't have a quirk." he said and she froze, 'That's impossible' she thought since most of the planet's population had a quirk sure it was possible to not have one but they were the vast minority among society. Seeing that she was confused Carter explained "I'm not a human, I'm a dragon" he said as he flexed his claws and the sprang out, but this time a large pair of pitch black wings emerged from his back along with a tail from the base of his spine, she paused at his wings, the were larger than he was and the black scales seemed to glow in the harsh light of the kitchen she also noticed several scales on his wings that twinkled white just like stars in the night sky.

"I still don't understand what this has to do with you not wanting to talk to people." she said as she turned to face him with her arms crossed, tucking his wings behind his back neatly and retracting his claws, Carter dropped a bombshell into her brain. "I'm going to live for at least 250 years if i do nothing but sit around and eat enough food all day, but since I'm going to be getting stronger that number is most likely going to go up." Now it made sense, he knew that he would outlive most if not every person that he had ever met, but now another question popped into her mind. "If what you say is true, then that means you'll outlive me as well, so why do you act differently with me if you know that one day I'll be gone?" she asked while lamenting the fact that she would in fact one day die, Carter gave her a smile then answered "Because I want to have plenty of good memories of you, so that when I'm all by myself fighting I can look back and remember why." he said as she contemplated the meaning of his words, unable to find any significant meaning she nodded and turned back to putting things away as did Carter.

Carter POV that night-

Once they had made it back home and he had gotten everything situated in his room, Carter was quite pleased with himself seeing his room neat and tidy gave him a satisfaction that he thought would be with hm forever, but then he lay on his bed and knew that he had found love, it was nothing like the cold hospital bed this one was warm and soft and instantly made him drowsy, but before sleep could take him he snapped awake, and called out to his system.

'System are you there?' he spoke in his mind remembering what Dave had said about the creature 'I am here host, what do you need?' it asked in a monotone voice, 'Pull up the interface' 'Ok here it is' and Carter watched with wonder as a light transparent screen appears right before his eyes.

Carter inspected the screen and found it was very bare bones 'Why is it empty, any what are all these different dragon type?' he asked the system, 'The system is still new and young and has yet to mature, maturity will be reached in three years. As for all the different types of dragons, they are the different species that inhabit a world full of dragons, most live on the continent of Pyrrhia, but the last three live across the sea on Pantala.'. It made more sense now that the system had explained it, so now Carter had a goal in mind become stronger and unlocked and master all the dragon types 'What's that thing next to the NIghtwing only, what animus mean?' he asked while getting more comfortable on the bed and getting ready to pass out. 'Unlike most other dragons, the dragons of Pyrrhia and Pantala cannot use magic and instead have turned to primitive like science but every so often an Animus dragon who can use magic is born, but their version of magic is also different, instead of using mana and spell circle or some other form of advanced magic, they use words and thoughts and intentions requiring no mana at all, the only downside is that their souls can be damaged according to how powerful the spell used is, or if they had malicious intentions of not.' the system told him, and so he lay in bed thinking about how he had come across such a weird world and had found someone that he could trust.

As Carter woke up and stretched both his arms and wings, he smelt something good and without a thought rushed over to the kitchen to see Cathleen standing over the stove making breakfast, hearing his mad dash though the hall she turned with a smile "Hey there, take a seat I made some breakfast and we'll eat before heading out to start your training." Carter swiftly sat down and once Cathleen brought over the food that she had cooked they both dug in, crispy bacon and fluffy eggs washed down with orange juice, as they left the apartment and headed to whatever someone as strong as Cathleen considered 'training' he knew that they would get along just fine.

A/N Heyyo hope you liked it, gonna start the training montage next to push us over to the start of the show then things should get a bit more exciting. See ya!
