Shikigami Dance: Naruto/BNHA Crossover

Soulmate/Female AU: Special Chapter

'Okay, bitches, and bros, and nonbinary hoes!'

That was a quote, don't troll me.

I decided since I'm a sadist and like messing with people, I will mess with you more and write an AU special. Not any AU, but a gender-bend AU!

This will also be just about the only chance for a different ship.

In response to a poll question a while back, the soulmate will be whoever got the most votes.

Haru's name will be the same since Haruko is a unisex name in Japan.

Complaining about the wait? Look at the length of this thing. I probably wrote more in this one update than in all my college papers put together and I took two writing and rhetoric classes.

WARNING: SLIGHTLY SENSITIVE CONTENT! EMOTIONAL LOSS! BLOOD!

So Haru's character is slightly different in this AU. Also, the premise is that she was born in the BNHA Universe but from a really old bloodline. She goes by the last name of Uzumaki instead of Bakugo. Some of the facts for the original story, like the seal on her forehead still exists.

Also, some of the characters like Izuku and Shinso trained to fight without Quirks.

Characters will change slightly in this chapter.

Clear your minds and enjoy!

The soulmates bond...

It'd been around for thousands of years but no one knew how or when it came to be or how it worked. There was no rhyme or reason. No predicting the pairs or the outcome. It just was. Even in a world of Quirks, no science was, is, or ever could explain the phenomenon.

Some considered it a myth, some thought it was instant love, some thought it a hassle, some yearned for it, some dreaded it. It came in all types and kinds.

For Haruko Uzumaki, it was an unknown... and the unknown scared her.

Fifteen years she had carried the first words of her soulmate on the inside of the wrist of her right arm.

I've been waiting for you

The first words she would ever hear from her soulmate etched into the innermost layer of her skin. Most people would think that sounded romantic, but others would say it belonged to a stalker. Either way, it didn't matter because whenever she met anyone new, Haru would subconsciously tense in fear of those words being spoken.

Because of an accident, Haru's memories weren't always the happiest. More accurately many of her most traumatic ones weren't even hers. The result was she was fearful. No matter how much she hid it or tried to overcome it, she suffered mental breakdowns out of fear of losing the things she clung to. Anything unfamiliar or in the realm of the unknown was a secret terror for her. Creating attachments to anything was a taboo in her mind.

It was because of this that she had avoided people as much as she was able. She'd avoid speaking in fear of triggering the connection or someone replying with the doomsday phrase. In Junior High, she'd had a reputation for being extremely cautious of strangers, even being given the moniker of the Silent Shikigami. It wasn't an insult either. Her Quirk, Shikigami, was an equivalent to several Quirks combined into one. From day one, she'd had been respected for her power and, despite her silence, her presence was distinctive.
