A Nevermore let out a loud screech as it flew through the darkened skies. On the ground below, Goliaths roamed unhindered. Black pools of a tar like substance bubbled as a newly born Beowolf slowly crawled out, coated in Grimm essence.
The Dark Continent was absolutely filled with Grimm. To...

I slowly walked through the destroyed clearing, taking in each mark that the Genin teams had left. Funnily enough, the Genin who had the most potential to destroy the clearing had been Tenten of all people.
That final weapon of hers was something else in terms of sheer destructive capabilit...

A steaming cup of hot coco warmed Ozpin’s hands as he poured over the numerous laws of Remnant, many of which he had written himself. Finding the law in question, the one that Coal had informed him about, he let out a sigh. It was just as Jacques Schnee had said.

A loud clang of metal striking metal sounded through the training room as I blocked Pyrrha’s blow. With a shove, I pushed her spear back, only for her to rapidly spin around, her weapon morphing back into its sword form as she attempted to land a strike on the other side of my body.

I sat, cross legged on a stone slab that was balanced precariously on one of the Genbu’s spikes. Samui stood on an adjacent spike, not looking very impressed with me. In my defense, I was bored and there wasn’t much to do on the Island.

I let out a grunt as I clutched the extremely heavy dumbbells to my chest. Squatting down, my muscles burned and my legs shook with exertion as I stood back up again.

“Well,” Jiraiya began. “It seems that this is as far as I can go.”

The dam groaned loudly as it began to slowly break apart. Numerous cracks began to form with high pressured jets of water spraying out, helping speed up the rate at which it broke apart. A large chunk of debris broke free and hit the ground with a loud thump as a wave of water followed it.

Traveling to Taki had been a mostly quite trip… that was until we passed the Land of Waterfalls boarder. The country truly lived up to its namesake, containing large bodies of water, lakes, rivers and waterfalls.
