Kokichi sped down the small flight of stairs to see the back of a purple haired girl rounding the corner. He trailed behind them for a little bit, then spun around to meet the person at the front of the group.
"H-" Kokichi quickly got interrupted by
An abrupt punch in the face.
"Oh my- I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" Jessica gasped at the boy in front of her.
Kokichi slowly withered to the floor, and everyone else simply stared at him. He stayed there, motionless for a few seconds, and Charlie bent down to check his pulse. As soon as she went to hold his wrist, he shot up from the ground, unfazed.
"It's a lie!"
"Wait...what?" Jessica said, "Are you even okay?"
"I'm fine! The name's Kokichi." he stuck out his hand, and Jessica shook it slowly.
"What's with you whole...act?" asked Carlton.
Kokichi just laughed in return.
"Seriously! What was with that?" Carlton demanded.
"Not sure, just felt like it. But I did come here 'cause you guys seemed interesting enough," Kokichi laughed again.
The group exchanged glances, all with the same thing in mind.
Should we trust him?
"I guess we can let him follow us, for now. He doesn't seem that dangerous. If he is..." Ejiro lifted up his arm and displayed his quirk. Everyone collectively gasped.
Chihiro stepped forward slightly, "What's your quirk, Izuku?"
"My quirk? Well, ah, it's strength-based. I can't really show you unless I punch or kick something, though," he said, giving him a small smile.
"Let's keep going. All of the people that are enemies, assuming nobody's lying, aren't with us right now. The only thing we need to worry about is avoiding them. And keeping an eye on Kokichi," Kyoko suggested.
The group of nine nodded, once again venturing back out into the darkness.
William Afton, after receiving a small tap on his shoulder whirled around to see his daughter. Or really, the seven-foot tall robot with his daughter's soul inside.
"Elizabeth?" his eyes darted to her right, where she had a significantly shorter girl in tow, "Who is this?"
"Himiko Toga!" the girl smiled revealing sharp teeth.
Like a vampire's. Afton though, with a bit of disgust.
"Elizabeth, this isn't grade school. We aren't here to go around making friends,"
"But she'd be a good ally, she-"
"Elizabeth!"
"I kill!" Toga said, "It's fun!"
Afton stared at Toga, "How many people have you killed? Without getting caught?"
The girl shrugged, "A whole lot! I lose count, sometimes."
Finally, he nodded towards Elizabeth, "We can accept her, but I will be ready to betray her, and you for that matter, at any given moment."
