Remnant's Protectors

Transferred Strength

3rd POV

John releases his ascended king form. Dark clouds then roll in with lightning striking all around the heroes. This makes Zander cry. Weiss brings him closer, rocking him.

Weiss: "Shh, it's okay. It's just lighting."

Faunus: "What's up with the weather?"

Speed: "I don't know."

Iron: "What're you doing John?"

John: "We need you. Your wife needs you. But most importantly your son needs you. So take my strength and wake up."

His power flows out of his body into Super's grave. When the last is transferred he falls onto his side. Iron rushes in holding him. 

Iron: "What'd you do?"

He only smiles. Lightning then constantly strikes Super's grave. When a massive bolt hits, his tombstone splits in half. There's a moment of silence. Something then shoots out of the ground, showering the heroes with dirt. 

Y/N: "What the heck was that?"

A gasp fills the air. Every hero looks at Weiss who's crying. They follow her eyesight and go wide eyed.

Speed: "Is that?"

Their eyes lower when what they're looking at finally lands.

Super: "Hello everyone."

Iron POV

We all smile seeing our resurrected comrade. Weiss then walks past us to him.

Super POV

My darling wife makes her way to me. Tears cascade down her cheeks.

Weiss: "Is that really you?"

She reaches out for me. I grab her hand and cup her cheek. Her tears increase at my touch. I then plant a soft kiss on her lips.

Super: "Yeah. It's really me. I'm back."

I pull her into my arms where she activates a death grip. She then buries her face in my chest, staining my shirt with tears.

Weiss: "Don't you ever leave me again."

I smile pulling her closer.

Super: "I promise I won't."

I hear a coo. She pulls away holding something out. I go wide eyed.

Super: "Is this..."

She smiles still crying.

Weiss: "Our son. Zander."

I take him from her, holding him in my arms. I smile finally being able to see my long awaited child.

Super: "Hey Zander. I'm your dad."

Weiss cups his cheek smiling.

Weiss: "He looks just like you."

Super: "He sure does. Guess we know who he'll take up after."

She rolls her eyes. I hand him back to Weiss walking to John. I hold out my hand smiling. He returns it as I pull him to his feet. 

Super: "Thank you."

John: "Don't worry about it. The protectors just wouldn't have been the same without you."

I throw his arm around my neck turning to the others.

Iron: "Now that the gang's all here. Suppose it's time we discussed what you learned."

I turn to my wife.

Super: "Hate to do this."

Weiss: "Just don't go dying again."

I half smile. We fade into light arriving at Iron's lab. Setting John in a chair Iron slides him a tray overflowing with food. 

Speed: "So how exactly were you able to revive Super?"

John: "I transferred what power I had recovered into him. Now I gotta replenish it by consuming sustenance."

Super: "Then while you do that, I'm gonna go shower. Being dead really makes you stink."

Iron: "There's one at the back of the lab."

I nod heading to have a long overdue shower.
