Quirkless Rejects

Bonus: Afterlife

'Sorry that I can't be there with you in the end, Chief.'

Animation stood in the bakery, hands pressed against the window as Grimlin slowly died in that building.

She watched it through the windows like a movie. That was how she viewed every battle, whether she wanted to or not.

*Ding Ding*

Anima closed her eyes. She fixed her wizard's hat back on straight.

"Where...?"

Anima turned to the front door where a certain man had just walked through.

"Grimlin," she greeted. The man's head whipped around to her. "Anima..?" She smiled and slowly walked up to him. "You look well." Grimlin chuckled. "So do you." They hugged silently.

"Where are we?" the older man asked once separating.

Anima turned around and gestured to the bakery.

"Soft Blossom Bakery."

"Are we dead...?"

Animation closed her eyes for a second before opening them again.

"Yes."

-----

Anima and Grimlin cheered.

"We won!" They turned to each other and smiled. "The Quirkless Rejects won!"

-----

Grimlin raised a cup.

"To the opening of the Isle of the Quirkless."

Anima raised hers. "To the opening of the Isle of the Quirkless!"

*CLINK*

-----

Anima bit her lip. "I don't know how I feel about this new plan."

Grimlin nodded. "Me neither."

-----

They stared down at the Eiffel Tower. "Ooooh! France!"

-----

'Jester, Doom, Bubblegum, Fox and Fox, Butterfly, and Cateye. Also, that red and white-haired boy. I can't seem to remember his name-'

"No..." Anima whispered.

Grimlin sighed as he watched through the windows the letter being read. "I knew this would happen."

-----

'- after all, it's not like I know who I am writing to.'

"He really doesn't remember them?"

Grimlin shook his head sadly. "I guess not."

-----

"Oh! Cateye met up with them! This great!"

"I hope."

"What do you mean...?"

-----

"He remembered Todoroki! Yay!"

...

"Grimlin?"

...

-----

"Wait! He didn't mean it! They aren't betraying you!" Anima banged on the window.

Grimlin let out a gruff sigh.

"Go back..."

-----

"H- he doesn't remember... Aizawa?"
