Izuka stared at the crateful of 'anti quirk' bullets she bought which she paid a generous sum of money which was brought by someone with a plague mask who after some confirmations gave it to her.
She took one bullet out and eyed it critically. She then took a regular fullmetal bullet for comparison.
Although it didn't say it's specifications the bullet is about the same as the 9mm she have in hand.
She placed one bullet in her magazine loaded it in her gun aimed it on a prepared can about 10 meters away. She shot the can and the recoil was weaker than a regular bullet that she expects and looking at the can that fell on the ground she was a bit disappointed with the small dent it made.
She was a bit disappointed in the result but eyeing the can she noticed the dent covered in something red and liquid as if she just shot a high powered water bullet.
Raising her brow she took an empty magazine and filled it with these bullets just in case.
She scratched her head as she picked up the dented can and threw it into the and eyed curiously at the red painted spread on the can she then grimaced as she smelled a metallic scent of blood from the can.
She then looked at the magazine filled with these bullets she grimaced at the thought. Trying to clear her mind she went out and have a stroll in the city.
Wandering around town she couldn't help but look at the groups of students and people passing by. She narrowed her eyes on them and looked at her hands she sighed and looked in front of the crosswalk. She was about to cross when someone hugged her from her back.
She recoiled a bit and quickly turned to her hugger "Toga-san!?" Izuka said in shock.
"Yes, yes Hitori-san, it's a me Toga!" Toga said as she looked at her with a huge grin.
Toga's eccentricity made Hitori give her a curious gaze. Raising her brows Hitori chuckles as she pats Toga's hair.
They together walked through a mall and as they pass through the entrance Hitori eyed the crowd then turned to Toga "Himiko Toga-san" Hitori said as she gave her a small smile.
"Yes, Hitori-san?" Toga asked giving Hitori a curious look.
"Call me Izuka while we are here" Izuka said. Although she is not sure if giving her real name to someone new to the league, heck even Shigaraki nor Kurogiri didn't even know of this she furrowed her brows as she looked around the crowd.
Himiko Toga looked at with awe, as Izuka turned to look at Toga she saw her look of awe. Izuka rose her brow "you are like a spy" Toga said her hands together which earned a chuckle from Izuka.
"I will not comment on that Toga-san" Izuka said giving her an amused smile "so want to go in the arcade?" Izuka asked her experience with arcades are abysmal at best with Bakugo trying hard to be the best to show his superiority to his friends with her just watching.
"Sure Izuka-san!" Toga said as she put her fist up and look at her with starry eyes and jogged to the arcade with Izuka trailing her with a upbeat smile.
Going into one one they passed by a slot machine with rabbit dolls which caught Toga's eye.
"Izuka-san!" Toga called gaining Izuka's attention. Pointing at the rabbit stars formed at her eyes as she pumped her other arm "It's cute, I want it!".
Looking at the slot machine she fumbled a bit on the controls, placed a coin and aimed for the rabbit. Successfully catching the rabbit she could hear Toga squealing in excitement on her side as she amusedly stare at the prize as it falls to a bin.
Pulling it out she appraise the bunny doll, which for the most part white with a black blouse she then looked curiosity to Toga who is just looking at her expectantly.
Shrugging she gave it to Toga "here ya go toga, first try" Izuka grinned.
"Hey Izuka-san" Toga called her to a air hockey table "let's try this". Izuka looked at her with a amused look "alright, whoever wins gets to choose the next game" She challenged.
A good part of the afternoon, Izuka and Himiko is tried most of the games in the arcade and trying a photo booth. After a while, bit exhausted they spent playing they sat on the food court and ate some snacks.
Izuka happily slurps her milk tea with Toga. Today was a bliss she made a new friend and have spent a good portion of the day having a great time with said friend, she never thought she would have this great of a time.
Although as she looked at Toga's personality she couldn't fathom why would she be a villain her cheerful demeanor would make her more of a psychopath villain but as much time she spent there is more to this psychopathic friend she has than meets the eye.
So walking back to her warehouse with Toga after a full day of girl bonding she stretches her shoulder "That was a blast Izuka-san!" Toga said as she pumped her arms in the air enthusiastically.
"Yep, it sure is" Izuka nodded in agreement she never had this much fun in a arcade with someone before so that was pretty much an experience she will never forget.
"Honestly Izuka-san this is my first time in an arcade with someone" Toga said with a wry smile.
Raising her brow she turned to her as they made a lot turn on an alleyway. She was about her age but it seems that she have less friends than her. . . If they count.
"I never have this much fun in that is not because of their blood" Izuka stared blankly at Toga. As much as she is a great friend she noticed that she has been looking at her weird every other time in the mall.
"Well Toga-san" Izuka said as she noticed her continuing forward on a intersection "see you again tomorrow" Izuka said as she meekly clasped her hands with her.
For a moment Himiko Toga blushed, she shook her head and smiled "yeah, see you Izuka-san!" Toga said as she waved her hand with Izuka waving back.
"Don't forget Toga-san" Izuka said as toga was a few feet away from her. Giving her a composed smile she tilted her head "don't forget to call me Hitori when we are in the league, ok" she said.
She looked at Toga as she nodded and ran through the alleyway. Izuka seeing Toga out of her vision she relaxed her shoulders and sighed.
"Are you going out now?" Izuka said with her neutral voice as she turned to a dark corner.
Shota Aizawa reads the police report he got from Detective Tsukauchi he was unable to join the meeting a few weeks ago. His body still in pain from the injuries in USJ as much as he is still recuperating from his wounds he still would do his best for his students and Society.
He was a bit relieved when the students were safe and that a lot of villains were arrested but one thing stands.
The perpetrators of the attack are still at large.
The school for the most part was able to keep the media under wraps, he swear. Those guys are annoyingly persistent, he won't even be surprised if they were the reason the league was able to infiltrate deep into school grounds.
If he were the principal he would sue them for trespassing.
Sighing he reads the reports of the villains with a newfound interest on the League of Villains who attacked USJ.
He instinctively reached for his elbows a painful reminder that he may get killed even in the safety of the school.
Nevertheless hearing news of the possibility of Stain allying with the league gave him the fright, although he is arrested he couldn't shake the feeling that there would be more who would join the League after that incident.
Witness reports of the League of Villains in the area with one spotted near the fighting from the students and Stain this group of villains are getting more of a pain as the day passed.
Speaking of his students. . . he looked back at his students 3 involved themselves in the arrest of Stain he scratched his hair hearing this.
They all are improving well about as he expected although he also noted most of their behavior.
First thing he thought was Bakugo and his confusing behavior. Of all his current students he seems to have a trauma he wants to hide as he is usually loud with and aggressive in his behavior there were times he would be unusually silent.
As if there is a minute of guilt in him then he suddenly back to normal.
He narrowed his rubbed his eyes then turned to the clock on his left 4 am he still have to teach his students later may as well get some sleep at least.
"Oh Dabi" Hitori looked a bit surprised with her stalker "what are ya doing lately" Hitori said as she rose her brow with an amused smile "Hopefully not stalking at two girls for the entire day in the mall".
Dabi chuckle "So you noticed" Dabi said as he put his hands on his pockets.
"So you don't deny it?" Hitori asked.
"Of course, who won't be interested on seeing my senior on the league don't you think so Hitori or Izuka" Dabi said earning a a small twitch on Izuka's eye.
"What do you want Dabi?" Izuka sighed.
"Nothing much" Dabi said as he shrugged "I am just interested on the people in the league that's all".
Izuka tilted her head on him a bit confused "Huh, anyways may I ask about your quirk?" Izuka asked in curiosity.
Dabi rose his brow in the question, looking around he turned to Izuka. "Let's talk to somewhere more inconspicuous".
*Scene transition*
"Really?" Izuka asked as she sat on one of the stools in a bar of a random ramen restaurant in a dark alleyway of town. There aren't much patrons at the moment but the way they looked warily at Dabi as he entered with her gave her an impression that something happened, whatever it is, it would be for a later thought.
Ordering a ramen Izuka turned to Dabi "About your quirk?" She said as she pulled out a small notebook.
In a moment Dabi looked at her in amusement but nevertheless told him of his quirk. He rose his brow on her attentiveness as Izuka noted on his quirk while asking a couple of things, some he already knew the answer but some are really good question that even he didn't ask himself of.
He looked around the patrons inside who immediately turned to their food, he looked back to Izuka seeing her focused look in her notebook made him chuckle as he somehow reminded him of his sister, he didn't know why though.
A thought went to his mind and amused himself with a question "Why didn't you ask the psycho girl you had a date earlier?" He asked.
Immediately Izuka flinched and covered her face with her notebook in embarrassed.
"It's just, I never had much fun hanging out with someone before" Izuka answered as she put her notebook in her bag.
Two bowls or ramen was placed between them Izuka pulled hers and gave a small blow to the bowl.
"Had a couple of friends you know" Izuka said as she stared blankly on the bowl. Dabi took his and stared at Izuka.
"I have a good friend, since our childhood we would be together and be a hero someday" she said "since he got his quirk his attitude turned to the worse.
Gobbling a good amount of the ramen she then put her chopsticks on the bowl sighing
Remorsefully "I thought that it would just go away and we would be good friends and be great hero partners".
Izuka made a sorrowful smile "It was never meant to be" She chuckled.
Dabi looked at her with curiosity, he is curious with the girl. He doesn't had any friends before and the only reason they've met is because because Stain has some involvement with the league.
And this girl is a curiosity on its own as he quickly ate his ramin with speed and gusto which surprised Izuka as she looked at him with a wry smile and a chuckle.
"Is the ramen really that good?" Izuka asked raising her brow.
"The ramen here is good" Dabi nodded as he placed his empty bowl on the bar "I've been eating in this place for a while, the old geezer here is good at his work" he said as he looked at the old man who is wiping a bowl with his cloth who nodded.
Time passed and it was almost midnight when they separated and went on their own way Izuka a bit tired made her way to her apartment which is closer than the warehouse.
She stopped at the corner as she heard noises of a fight nearby edging herself to the threshold she listened to exchange.
"Kurage, damn you" a familiar voice then a sound of a punch was heard and a grunt from the same guy.
Izuka leaned a bit and was surprised to see Kaito sprawled on the wall with Kurage on the floor with a couple of thugs, Izuka rose her brow at this situation.
"This is why you don't just mess with us" one of them said as they chuckled brandishing their quirks "Because we will find you" one approached and blades grew from his entire arm as he raised it on Kurage who is on the ground looking at him with horror.
"And we will kill you".
In a flash Izuka pulled out one of her throwing knives and threw it on the man who immediately recoiled missing Kurage entirely.
She then pulled out her pistol, and shot all the the thugs who immediately scrambled but they looked at confusion as they looked at where they've got shot and seeing that the shots only stung and red paint they looked at
Izuka with a grin.
"What do you think you are doing girl" one of the thugs said as they all chuckled in amusement at the girl.
"Hitori!" Kaito shout as he looked at her with horror as he looked at her "Run!".
Izuka turned to Kaito then back to the thugs. unloading her pistol and replacing it with real metal bullets she aimed it back at the thugs.
"What a cute name Hitori" the same thug said as he raised his arm "what" he looked at his arms in confusion.
She looked at this and couldn't help but smile "what's wrong" she said as she slowly walked towards the thugs while making sure she could intimidate them as much as possible her emerald eyes glowing in the dim light of the narrow alleyway.
She pulled out her knife as the thugs charged thinking that they could over power her but they didn't last for long as Izuka disabled every thugs one by one.
Seeing her handiwork she turned around and saw Kurage struggling to stand while Kaito leaning on the wall in his hand holding his stomach in pain.
Seeing as the thugs are either on the floor unconscious, on the floor or bleeding out she carried Kurage and lead Kaito to her apartment.
Kaito sat on one the chairs exhausted and in pain. He rotated his right arm to soothe his shoulder as Kurage is lying on Izuka's bed with ice packs covering his back to remedy his bruises.
Kaito sighed as he placed an ice on his shoulders "Thanks" he said as he turned to to Hitori who is tending Kurage who went unconscious as they escaped.
"This is not what I expected our next meeting" she said which earned a laugh from Kaito.
"Same" Izuka said as she shook her hair in amusement. They looked at Kurage who is now conscious and held the bridge of his nose "Well look who's now awake" Kaito said.
Kurage groaned as he sat up from the bed "What happened Kaito" he asked.
"We got our asses beat" Kaito said as he sighed in disappointment "But an angel has has come from the heavens to save us and beated those liberation army's asses".
"What do you mean. . . Hitori?" Kurage said as he turned and saw Hitori who has a glass of water in hand.
"It's been a while Kurage" Hitori said as she gave the water to him.
Kurage in his part looked at her in a surprised look as he thankfully accepted the water.
"Thanks" Kurage said as he gave the empty glass to Hitori. He then looked at his wounds and sighed "What Kaito said. . " He trailed off.
"Yep, caught you guys surrounded by a couple of thugs and seeing that you guys almost got beaten to death" Hitori said as she looked at the the state of the two "You guys are lucky I passed by".
The two went quiet as it dawned on them what would happen if Hitori wasn't there in coincidence.
"Who are they by the way?" Hitori asked.
The duo looked at each other then back at her.
"They are from the Meta Liberation Army" Kurage said as a matter of fact.
Hitori froze as she turned to Kurage with a horrified expression.
"Well shit"
