- Chapter 19 -

You basically drag yourself in exhaustion out the elevator and into the apartment door, slamming it shut without considering how loud it could be.

You had a major headache, and were mentally drained to the point that even thinking about stairs seemed like so much effort.

You dug in your pockets to find your phone, and saw All Might's message saying that you most likely won't see him until tomorrow morning. You just texted "ok" and let him know you made it home safely, and immediately scrolled through your contacts for Melissa.

I haven't spoken to her in a while, I need to talk with her. And ask her what I should do with... the new info I found out. About this vestige world Angelic has apparently, and how they just now decide to show up.

You fly to your room and close your door, put on some comfy sweats and sit at your regular spot on the balcony. You could take in the entire Musutafu skyline from up there, and the nice breeze made the atmosphere the perfect spot to collect your thoughts and or talk to your friends.

Alright, now to call...

...

....

"Hello?"

"Hey, Y/N. What's up?" You sighed into your seat, your tensed muscles easing as you heard her voice.

"Hey, Mel. A lot's been up actually, and I need your input on all of it."

"Oh dear, did that much happen in that short amount of time?" Her tone became worried with slight curiosity, she was always so interested in your life and journey. And as you're her unofficial little sister, she feels the need to protect you and look out for you, even if you can do it yourself.

You tell her about everything that happened, from the fight you had against the nomu, your encounter with Shigaraki, then your new discovery about the vestige world Angelic had.

"Wait! Wait wait wait wait hold on a minute. All this time you had the consciousness of every single Angelic user living inside you ever since you gained the quirk?! And no one ever told you about it!?"

"I know, that's what I was thinking. It was such a short time I was there, and I couldn't even make out who I was talking to. Most likely a predecessor from decades ago."

"I have so many questions."

Oh fuck-

"What did it feel like? Who did the person look like? What did they want? What did It look like inside? Was there anyone else there? What were you wearing?"

"Ok ok enough, motor mouth."

You sighed, and laughed to yourself. Her barrage of questions humored you and made you feel slightly better about your fear of the unknown, her regular behaviors and reactions made you feel safe. You grew terrified of the unknown, and Melissa always unknowingly made you feel secure.

It's ironic, the thing that you fear the most is the one key to unlock what you ultimately want.

Change.

"I was nervous at first, but she assured me that no one else could be there unless one possessed Angelic." You explain.

"Oh, she? Who was it?' Melissa asked eagerly, you could hear in her tone that Melissa's eyes must be brimming wide with curiosity.

"I could tell by her voice and the way she moved looked feminine, but I don't know who it was. She was this glowing white blob, and didn't have any distinct human features."

"The voice however, sounded familiar. Like a deep memory I buried from long ago that was dug up once I heard her voice."

Melissa seemed like she was taking note of your words, you only assumed that what she was feeling was most likely interest as well as worry for you. Since neither your family nor your own quirk mentioned any sort of vestige world before, it could be assumed you were the first to experience the phenomenon.
