There And Back Again [Black Clover x BNHA]

Chapter Fifty

Vangeance placed a hand on his head, wondering what the hell he was going to do. Klaus, Yuno, and Mimosa stood before him, all extremely panicked. He couldn't blame them, knowing Rhya, but lord was he going to have to have a serious talk after all this was done and over with.

"Let me get this straight." The Captain said, sighing deeply. "You took them to the border where they were then kidnapped from you without a trace. Correct?"

"Yes!" Mimosa moved forward, tears pooling in her eyes. "We looked everywhere in the surrounding area, but I couldn't find anything with my guidepost and they saw nothing either! A-And..." she began to choke up, "And we d-don't know w-where their hideout i-is..."

Klaus side hugged the young mage as she began to cry, cursing himself for his lack of foresight. It had been a few hours since the students were taken, and there had been nothing heard or seen. Yuno vibrated with anger and fear next to him, although he tried to hide it.

"Did you alert the Black Bulls? Or Headquarters?" Vangeance asked, watching as the three froze. "You didn't... did you?"

"I-It slipped my mind!" Klaus cried, hands coming up to cover his face in shame.

"To be fair the Bulls would have murdered us." Yuno mumbled, and then after pondering for a second added: "Will kill us, actually."

Vangeance sighed, taking out his communication device. "To be honest, I think not mentioning it to Headquarters was probably a wise decision. It is not wide-spread knowledge that our newcomers are not mages or from this world. But Yami needs to be informed."

The three young mage stared at him wide-eyed as their Captain went to open communications, but yelped in fear at the roar that came from within. Even Vangeance paled at the sight of Yami.

"WHY THE HELL ARE MY ROOKIES PRACTICALLY DEAD?!"

About an hour earlier...

Luck and Bakugou had returned from their sparring, both arguing over who had technically won their matches. The others rolled their eyes, ignoring their bickering. Vanessa grabbed them both, utterly wasted, preaching about friendship and other things. They had easily ran away from her hold.

Eri, hair beautifully done up by Henry, was napping on Finral's lap as he read the newspaper, Uraraka next to him questioning what was written. She had returned minutes ago with Grey from their shopping excursion, having handed Charmy some new ingredients they managed to grab on their spree. The tiny mage was singing in the kitchen, preparing a wonderful feast for dinner.

Midoriya was sitting with Magna and Noelle, taking notes on their magic, occasionally getting responses from Gordon and Gauche who sat at the couch with them. The mages did their best to answer his endless stream of questions. The Captain was dozing in the corner, and no one dared wake him.

Asta, the only one missing, was currently outside training, everyone else having abandoned him as the evening sky set in. Nero kept him company, although the bird shivered slightly, although at what, they didn't know.

The bird would soon find their answer, a shrill squawk escaping them, as a large portal opened above the ground and three bodies fell out of it. Asta, who had been alerted by Nero's surprise, whipped around at the offending ki, eyes bulging out of his head at the sight before him.

Iida, Asui, and Kirishima lay in a bloody heap, limbs tangled together. The anti-magic user sprinted over to their side, hands flailing for a quick second before he began taking their pulses. Sister Lily had taught all the village kids a few years back during their basic first aid training, and so he knew that was the first most important step.
