Chihiro's tense body almost relaxed a bit when he saw Makoto standing there, just like he had promised.
"Kirigiri and I talked for a bit. When she gets back, we'll all go see if we can find other people that might be okay to work with. Is that okay with you?"
Chihiro nodded, "It's okay."
After wandering around for what seemed like a while and not finding anyone else, Carlton finally broke the silence.
"Maybe we should round our way back up to the stairs near the stage? There could be more people there," he said.
The rest of the group changed direction and headed back the way they came, using the little light provided from the device everyone found equipped with them. It wasn't long before they found the same circle of light streaming in from the spotlights on stage. The only thing remotely unfamiliar about it were the two people standing there.
Jessica, leading the front of the group, nearly jumped back in surprise, and so did the two others. She quickly recovered and stuck out her hand.
"Hi. I'm Jessica."
The taller of the two shook her hand first. "Makoto Naegi."
"Chihiro Fujisaki," the shorter one gave a small wave.
"I think you guys should know that we're not going to kill. We're trying to find a way out," Ejiro added.
Makoto stepped forward to join the group.
"Wait!" Charlie interrupted, "How do we know we can trust them?"
"How do we know we can trust you?" asked Chihiro.
Silence.
"I don't know. You don't have to trust us, but there are some people we have to warn you about," said Jessica, "From our universe, Afton, Springtrap, and Elizabeth."
"And from ours, Shigaraki, Dabi, and Toga," said Izuku.
"All of us, from our dimension, have superpowers, or quirks. That's what we call them, anyway." said Ejiro.
Makoto and Chihiro whispered to each other for a minute or two before turning back around to address the group.
"There is one person we have to warn you about, too," said Makoto.
"Yeah. The bear robot, Monokuma. He's really scary," added Chihiro.
Bear robot? Like Freddy? Jessica, Charlie, and Carlton thought the same thing.
"So...are we cool?" asked Carlton.
Makoto and Chihiro nodded.
"I look forward to being allies with you!" said Chihiro.
