The Keeper of The Dragon Flame BNHA X OCS

Go!

As the school days passed, Ben's friends could see him becoming visibly more depressed and anxious than usual. His usual energy and enthusiasm seemed to have been replaced by a heavy burden that weighed him down. During lunch, Asta, Daisy, Zatanna, and Sky approached him, their concern evident.

Asta: gently Ben, we've noticed you haven't been yourself lately. Whatever's bothering you, we're here to listen. You don't have to carry it alone.

Daisy: nodding  Yeah, we're your friends. We've got your back.

Zatanna: softly  You can trust us, Ben. We just want to help.

Sky: reassuringly No matter what it is, we'll figure it out together.

Ben looked at his friends, grateful for their support but knowing he couldn't reveal the details of the mission involving Eri. The weight of keeping it confidential made it even harder to share his worries.

Ben: sighing, forcing a small smile  Thanks, guys. I appreciate it. But... he pauses, struggling with his emotions  Not yet...

They exchanged worried glances but respected his decision. They knew Ben well enough to understand that when he was ready, he would open up to them. For now, they would just continue to support him in any way they could.

Asta: smiling gently Whenever you're ready, we'll be here.

Daisy: determined And until then, we'll make sure to keep you company and cheer you up.

Zatanna: nodding Absolutely. You're not alone in this, Ben.

Sky: firmly We're all in this together.

Ben nodded, feeling a bit of the weight lift off his shoulders just by having his friends' unwavering support. As they continued their lunch, the conversation shifted to lighter topics, and although the heavy burden of the mission still lingered, Ben felt a little more at ease knowing his friends were there for him.

In the middle of the night, Ben's phone buzzed on his nightstand, pulling him from a restless sleep. Groggy and disoriented, he reached for his phone and squinted at the screen. The message from Master Splinter was clear and urgent:

Master Splinter: It's time. We've located Overhaul's base. Assemble and prepare for the operation.

Ben's heart raced with a mix of anxiety and determination. He quickly got out of bed and dressed in his black and yello-striped shinobi outfit. As he finished fastening his gear, he heard footsteps in the hallway and opened his door to find Kirishima, Tsuyu, Uraraka, and Deku all approaching, their faces set with resolve.

Kirishima: nodding Looks like it's time to get moving. Are you ready, Ben?

Tsuyu: calmly We need to stay focused and be prepared for anything.

Uraraka: determined This is it. We have to make sure we're all in this together.

Deku: serious Let's give it our all and make sure we bring Eri back safely.

The group quickly changed into their hero costumes. Kirishima, with his red, armor-like outfit; Tsuyu, in her frog-themed hero attire; Uraraka, sporting her usual floating hero suit; and Deku, in his signature green jumpsuit and armor. They were ready for the mission ahead.

Ben adjusted his black shinobi outfit, ensuring every piece of gear was in place. His costume was designed for maximum flexibility and stealth, perfect for the covert operation they were about to undertake.

Ben: resolute Let's do this. We've got a mission to complete and lives to save.

Kirishima: grinning I'm ready. Let's show them what we've got!

Tsuyu: nodding Agreed. Stay sharp and stick together.

Uraraka: determined We won't let anything stop us.

Deku: firmly We've got a job to do. Let's go.

The group moved swiftly, heading to the rendezvous point where Master Splinter and Nighteye were waiting. The tension was palpable, but so was their resolve. They knew that the mission to rescue Eri and take down Overhaul would be dangerous, but with their combined skills and determination, they were ready to face whatever awaited them.

As the team gathered at the rendezvous point, Ben spotted Dan Heng waiting with the pro heroes. Dan Heng's presence was a reassuring sight amidst the tension. Ben approached him, feeling a mix of anxiety and camaraderie.

Ben: determined pulls on his black shinobi outfit  We've got a mission ahead. The pro heroes might be calm, but it's clear they're as focused as we are.

Dan Heng: nodding adjusts his own hero costume Yeah, they're just showing their experience. We need to stay sharp and ready for anything.

Ben: grinning slightly You know, it's kind of inspiring. They've been through a lot, and they still approach each mission with such calm determination. Makes me want to live up to that.

Dan Heng: smiling  You've got this. We all do. We're in this together, and we're going to make sure we bring Eri back safely.

Ben: nodding  Thanks. I appreciate it.

The two of them, along with the rest of the team, prepare to head out. The weight of the mission hangs heavily in the air, but their resolve is unshakable.

The police and heroes assemble around Overhaul's hideout, preparing for the assault. The atmosphere is tense, each member of the team focused and ready for action. As the operation commences, the police lead the charge, but they are immediately met with an unexpected sight—an army of footbots standing guard.

Police Officer: shouting  We're encountering footbots! Stay alert!

Ben and Dan Heng exchange a glance, immediately recognizing the threat.

Dan Heng: determined These are Shredder's footbots. They must have been deployed as a defense.

Ben: firmly Let's clear them out. We don't have time to waste.

Ben swiftly draws his tessen, the folding fans snapping open as he charges into the fray. He channels his dragon flame through the tessen, creating blazing slashes with each swing. The intense heat from the fire adds an extra layer of destruction, slicing through the footbots with precision. Each fiery slash leaves a trail of flames, incinerating the metal and circuitry of the footbots.

Ben: shouting  Fiery slashes are the way to go!

Dan Heng: focused I'll handle the ones that get past you!

Dan Heng wields his spear with expert skill, the water swirling around his strikes enhancing their power. He thrusts and slices through the footbots, dismantling them with each movement.

The police and heroes follow their lead, working in concert to fight back the advancing footbots. The chaos of battle fills the air, with the clash of metal, the roar of fire, and the sparks from broken machinery lighting up the morning.

Ben: shouting over the noise Keep pushing forward! We need to get to Overhaul before it's too late!

Dan Heng: nods Agreed! Watch for any signs of additional reinforcements!

As they press on, the team fights their way through the footbots, determined to reach their objective and bring Eri back to safety.
