Chapter 45: Please...
now that the day was over Izumi walked back at the dorms feeling quite down due to her still remembering all the harsh criticism of Sir Nighteye. thought she wasn't entirely bummed out due to him agreeing to answer all of her questions when she pulled out her hero research book vol. 14, still the fact that he continuously tried to convince her that she wasn't worthy of One for All hurt a lot. its not like I don't agree with him, Izumi thought but All Might tried so hard to convince me that I am worthy so the fact that his old sidekick said I can't be trusted with the future hurt my pride a lot. Izumi then opened the door and suddenly Uraraka jumped out and hugged Izumi which surprised her and then some confetti poppers went off as well.
"congratulations Izumi! you got a Work Study!"
"and with Sir Nighteye no less! you're an inspiration to us all."
"woo-hoo! our Izumi is the best!" everyone then started cheering for Izumi and praising her all while she was smiling along but was also filled with guilt, although she was accepted and it ended with somewhat good terms Sir Nighteye still wanted her to surrender All for One to Mirio which would essentially force her to quit being a hero. that made her feel like the internship was going to be awful yet everyone was cheering her on. after some time Class 1-A gave her some space and Izumi went to her room changed into plain clothes and walked back to the living room and sat on the couch feeling exhausted.
"you ok Izumi?"
"oh, um, I'm fine I just... had a long day."
"still your really lucky, we've been searching all day and couldn't find any available work study positions."
"its because of the damn school restrictions!"
"I know right. ugh! I so jealous of you Izumi." Izumi really wanted to change the subject so she looked around trying to find anything interesting for everyone to focus on but then saw the condition that Bakugo and Todoroki were in. Todoroki had bandages on his face and had burn marks on his arms seeming to have came from explosions while Bakugo had bandages on his arms, burn marks on his uniform, and some snow on his hair. the two of them had their backs to the wall remaining silent but kept their distance from one another. one could almost see the negative energy that they were emitting from each other most likely due to anger.
"um... what happen to them?"
"hm? oh yeah they-" just then both Todoroki and Bakugo glared at Kaminari and he instantly went silent as he lost all his colors.
"uh... I think its best you ask them personally." Izumi then looked at them with concern but also had a pretty good idea on how they got that way.
"it was the special course training shit, that's all."
"correct, the training is rough but there's no need to worry about us." everyone then looked at the two of them in either disappointment or confusion, it was clear that no one in Class 1-A bought that story.
"... *sigh* its pretty obvious those two fought, probably over Izumi again, boys will be boys after all."
"is that so?" just then Hagakure shut her mouth as the whole room went silent when Aizawa entered the room seeming quite annoyed at Todoroki and Bakugo.
"then that would explain how you two could have ended up looking like you fought despite being in completely different classes for the special course and while I'm on the subject, would you two care to explain why parts of the pavement at the from of the dorms has bits of ice and burn marks while other parts are partially destroyed by what looks like explosions." despite having no good excuse Todoroki still tried his best.
"it was... our specials course training. we were uh..."
"oh give it a rest scar face. look we fought because I compared Todoroki to his old man, I did it was a joke and it obviously pissed him off. we fought but I was the one who started it." Aizawa then looked at Bakugo for a little while but then afterward his scarf lashed out and slapped Bakugo across the face.
"you should consider yourself grateful that your still in U.A. under my watch, I would have normally expelled you at this point but the damage you caused was minimal and your special course teachers haven't reported any problems so I'm just going to let this slide. stupid teenager's will be stupid teenagers after all. anyways, I didn't come for you I came for your classmates. Kirishima you have a work study recommendation from Amajiki for the BMI hero: Fat Gum, he says he'll give you the details tomorrow. same goes for Ashido and Uraraka, you two got a recommendation from Hado for the Dragon Hero: Ryukyu. and lastly for Tokoyami you have a direct request from the Wing hero: Hawks. come to the teachers lounge tomorrow after classes and I'll hand you all the paper work to get your work study started." after Aizawa left cheering and joy erupted through Class 1-A once again only this time Izumi felt genuine joy for her classmates who got work study options.
"this is awesome! first Izumi now you guys!"
"Class 1-A is heading to the big leagues!"
"it kinda sucks that we have to wait tomorrow thought... grrr! screw it! I can't wait I'm going to the senior dorms!"
"hm... I actually agree with Kirishima wanna come Ocha-chan?"
"if your going Tsu-chan then I'm all for it!" the three of them then marched out of Class 1-A dorms but then Tokoyami stopped them.
"don't you think its a little late in the day, to bother our seniors would be disgraceful at this hour." Tokoyami was trying to be responsible but he was clearly trembling because he wanted to go get started on the work study as soon as possible like the rest of them. Asui then walked to Tokoyami and started poking him to get him to get out of the way, Uraraka and Kirishima then looked at each other in confusion but then they both shrugged and started doing the same. eventually after about five minutes Tokoyami finally broke and they left to see Aizawa and the Seniors. Izumi laughed a little at the scene but as the day was coming to an end all her previous worries about All Might and Sir Nighteye started flooding back to her.
the next day Izumi was back at Sir Nighteye's agency with Mirio, both of them were wearing their hero costumes. Izumi managed to stand tall and professional but not because of a good night sleep, due to her constant worrying she couldn't sleep she had to drink a coffee mixed with an energy drink. so at the moment the only things that worried her was if she would crash during her work or if she would crash in front of Sir Nighteye and get more backlash about not being worthy of One for All. but so far Izumi felt fine as she stood in front of Sir Nighteye at his desk with Mirio and Bubble girl standing right beside her.
"alright now there are four of us, that is more than enough to begin todays work. now Mirio already knows this but Izumi does not so we will go other it again, recently the local discontinued Yakuza clan known as Shie Hassaikai has became active. the main reason seems to be because they are now under new leadership." Sir Nighteye then opened up a file on his desk so that they could all see it.
"this is Kai Chisaki, thought a rumor has spread on the streets that he has a villain name, Overhaul. the main source of these rumors stem from black markets that specialize in selling illegal and dangerous drugs. especially quirk enhancing drugs." Izumi couldn't help but shiver when she heard that, quirk enhancing drugs did exist all over the world but there were greatly feared due to how effective they were. a normally pathetic quirk could make a person unstoppable after a single dose and someone with an already amazing quirk could essentially become a literal god. it was because of these drugs that World War 3 almost started but thankfully never did when all the worlds governments agreed to outlaw them however there were rumors that certain governments were still developing them. regardless quirk enhancing drugs were extremely dangerous so for the Shie Hassaikai to be selling them was extremely distressing.
"however all of this is just that, rumors. that is why our main mission is just reconnaissance thought the Yakuza are dangerous they are still people who believe in chivalry and honor but above all they pride themselves for being criminals that are untouched by the law as such they would never do anything to expose themselves so as of the moment we have no evidence of their drug trafficking. regardless they are still criminals and even the greatest of criminals make mistakes, our task for the moment is to find their mistake and expose them before they reach their goal. Bubble Girl and me will do reconnaissance around the known hideout of the Shie Hassaikai. as for Lemilion and Deku on the other hand, since you two are still students you will be doing your patrol around the area of the Shie Hassaikai hideout but you are not to get anywhere near the area. Lemilion, I am entrusting you to a new recruit I hope you won't disappoint me and put all the training and hard work you have learned through out the three years of being in my work study."
"of course sir! I know she has her provisional license but still if things go south I will prioritize her safety and retreat!" Sir Nighteye then nodded in aproval but then looked at Izumi.
"oh um, I will follow Mirio Sempai's instructions clearly and without hesitation!"
"good, also off topic Ms. Midoriya did you discuss the topic we agreed upon with your teacher?"
"uh, I apologize Sir Nighteye but I didn't have the time yesterday, but I should be able to get a chance today!"
"... very well, but I hope its not because your trying to delay the inevitable." Izumi felt another sword stab into her head as she was filled with annoyance.
"ahem, of course not sir, I would never do something so disgraceful." Sir Nighteye then raised an eyebrow at her but then continued going over the debriefing.
after Sir Nighteye dismissed them Izumi and Mirio were now on the streets Izumi couldn't help but feel down after Sir Nighteye felt the need to bring up the agreement they made and also had the audacity to belittle her once again. I understand where he's coming from but does he have to be so mean about it?
"Midoriya? you alright?" Izumi then snapped out of it and quickly ran to catch up to Mirio who was a little ahead of her.
"uh, yeah I'm fine its just... hey Mirio, I mean Lemilion! ... hey why are you called Lemillion by the way?"
"oh, well part of it is because it sounds like Million and I know that even when I become a full fledged pro I can't save everyone but I can at least save a majority, so that's what I'm going for! the Hero with One Million saves: Lemilion!" Izumi then couldn't help but smile at this hm, yeah even thought it kinda bums me out, I can defiantly see where Sir Nighteye is coming from if Mirio had One for All he would surly be the next All Might.
"haha! hm? oh hey your smiling again! you know your smile is actually quite beautiful!" Izumi then couldn't help but blush when she heard that from Mirio
"ah! I meant that in a professionally way, not trying to be a pervert at all! anyways I can see why All Might recommended you and why Sir Nighteye decided to recruit you when you boldly said that you wanted to be the next symbol of peace! I honestly think you would be great for the position! just keep up that smile and the innocents will be able to smile as well! I mean yeah, Sir Nighteye said that he wanted me o be the next symbol of peace but you never know what the future holds! so until then, let us shine the best we can for the future ok?" Izumi had a surprised look because of this but inside her mind guilt was filling herself up once again, ugh! his praise was so nice but it just tells me how much he's worthy of One for All! what hurts the most is that he doesn't know that One for All isn't actually my own quirk! ugh, how can this situation possibly get any worse?!
just then a little girl ran into Izumi and nearly nocked her over, when Izumi sat up and saw that the little girl was in rags and had bandages all over her arms and she looked like saw was about to cry out of overwhelming fear.
"huh? are you ok? why are you dressed like this? are you hurt?"
"Eri, there you are." just then Eri shuttered in fear as she slowly turned around and Izumi looked up in horror as she was looking at Overhaul himself the new leader of the Shie Hassaikai standing right there.
"lets go home Eri, time to stop bothering strangers." Izumi then looked at Eri confused, is she his little sister or something?
"please... don't let him take me." Izumi felt chills up her spine from hearing the fear and pain in Eri, she's just a little girl... so much younger than I was... when I was being bullied nonstop in middle school. Izumi was still quite, but inside she was being filled with unyielding rage as she reverted in to her dark form. it was a good thing Izumi was wearing her V visor otherwise Overhaul could easily see the murderous intent in Izumi's eyes.
"are you perhaps a hero? could you please then give me my daughter?" crap this is bad! Mirio thought Midoriya, I'm getting bad vibes from him too but remember what Sir Nighteye said! we have no dirt on him, as far as the law is concerned he's innocent! I know that girl looks hurt but if we act now we're essentially breaking the law! please Midoriya contain yourself!
"is that how it is?" the tone of Izumi was filled with burning rage that was about to burst to which Overhaul raised an eyebrow at her while Mirio was sweating bullets.
"... so she's your daughter! sorry sir, its just that she really doesn't look like you! my bad, haha!" Izumi laughed joyfully while holding Eri but form Mirio's point of view he could she that not only was she still in her dark form with the rage still in her eyes. still this was progress to stabilizing the situation so Mirio managed to take a breath of relief.
"ahem, it seems your daughter is just a little distressed, so as heroes we just got a little concerned is all and no offence but that mask of yours is slightly off putting."
"of course most have told me that, you see I am actually the leader of the local Yakuza clan known as Shie Hassaikai, but please be at ease we've retired from the criminal old ways. now a days we're more like a community union, with me being the proud manager of said union, this mask is just to show the locals who and who isn't a member of said union. now-a-days we just do what we can to keep our community stable while I take care of my only daughter, obviously she gets her looks from her mother hence why she really doesn't look like me."
"oh right, so sorry for our rude tone towards you."
"its alright, your just doing your jobs after all." Izumi then stood up while holding Eri but was clearly holding onto her gently while also tightly like a mother cautiously holding her child.
"you're daughter is quite adorable but might I ask why she is dressed in rags and has bandages on her arms?" Izumi was smiling but also trembling with her anger which made Mirio uneasy again as she looked like a ticking time bomb ready to go off any second.
"well that's just the results of a father trying to discipline his sporadic child, she's quite a handful but as a devoted father I will continue to try to help her."
"help her? I'm sorry but I don't really recall any type of parenting where its ok to harm a child to this degree." Izumi was still smiling but Overhaul on the other hand was seeming to get annoyed at this point, thought his mask covered his mouth it was quite clear to Mirio that his smile was gone.
"hm, well I won't go saying I'm a perfect father but to be fair, hero or not, how I raise my daughter isn't really your business now is it?" before Izumi could respond Mirio got in-between her and Overhaul.
"haha! your right sir! so sorry for being so rude."
"uh, its fine, but if its all the same to you, can I have my daughter back?" Overhaul then extended his hand as Mirio got out of the way but when Eri saw his hand she hid her face into Izumi's shoulder out of fear and held onto her tighter.
"it doesn't look like she wants to go back with you." Izumi was no longer smiling or hiding the aggression in her tone toward Overhaul, to which his eye twitched in anger.
"ahem, sorry but as a hero you should know that Eri is safest when she is with her father and that just so happens to be me. please let her come home." Izumi then tapped Eri's back and the little girl looked at Izumi in confusion.
"do you want to go with him? do you want to go with your father?" Eri then looked at Overhaul and again hid her face in Izumi's shoulder out of fear.
"he's not... my daddy." it wasn't loud but all three of them heard what she said very clear, Overhaul in general looked quite annoyed and even raised his hand, like he was about to hit something. Mirio then backed off and was about to get in a fighting stance while Izumi was about to shield Eri from Overhaul but then Overhaul just put his hand behind his head and started scratching like an embarrassed idiot.
"haaa, like I said, sporadic. she's so stubborn when it comes to disobeying me that she won't even admit that I'm her father anymore. it honestly breaks my heart, she's only six years old and is already going through her rebellious phase." Mirio couldn't help but feel his gut fold when he heard how young Eri was and had bandages all over her arms.
"uh, it must be hard on you sir."
"*sigh* yeah more than you know. anyways if she feels safer in the arms of a hero then I suppose that only makes sense, if you don't mind I think my daughter would feel better if you two escorted us back home."
"oh! yes of course sir! you can count on us!"
"glad to hear it, thought I'm not sure I have seen either of you as of late, would it be alright if I see your I.D.? as well as what agency your with?"
"uh, I'm sorry?"
"well you two certainly look like heroes but for all I know you could be villains in disguise, as a civilian I need to be 100% sure I'm protected." crap... this is bad, if he finds out information about Sir Nighteye and his agency then like a snake the Shie Hassaikai will get away before we can catch it. damn, how do we get out of this without causing suspicion. but then without warning, Izumi stepped forward to talk.
"we can't give you such information."
"... and why is that?"
"because your Yakuza." Mirio was about to panic but then a great idea popped into his head.
"YES! ahem, we unfortunately can't give vital information to people related to crimes or known criminals syndicates like the Yakuza clans. I'm so sorry sir but this is the law."
"... *sigh* no, no. I should be used to this by now, after all even though we say we are a community union we still technically go by the name of our Yakuza clan. but I feel proud of the name thought, despite my masters being a known criminal, he was proud of the Yakuza because he believed that the chivalry and code of the Yakuza is what separated them from the common villain. he was a good master so even thought I'm not continuing his criminal legacy I still want to carry his proud name."
"hm, I see, I'm sure you master would be proud to carry the name even though your not following his legacy of crime." though its kinda obvious that your a villain, even if we have no solid evidence. well there is that girl but I doubt you'll let her go easily.
"well then lets get going, you'll keep my daughter safe right?" Overhaul then looked at Izumi with a fake smile while she continued to glare at him and hold Eri tight.
"... I won't let her go."
"I see... " Overhaul was aggravated once again but he just walked his way home down the dark ally way. all the while Overhaul was leading them he had this aura around him that gave Mirio an uneasy feeling he then looked at Izumi who was still holding Eri in a very mother like way.
"please... don't take me back."
"... don't worry, I don't know how yet, but I will save you." Izumi and Eri were whispering but still, Overhaul turned his head toward them and seemed quite aggravated. Mirio and Eri both noticed this while Izumi just focused on Eri, Overhaul then grabbed his glove which made Eri shiver in fear.
"let me go."
"w- what?"
"hurry!" Izumi then let Eri down and she ran toward Overhaul and held his hand.
"oh? so you stopped rebelling for the day?"
"... I'm sorry."
"Hm, its ok, well it looks like my daughter has stopped her tantrum for the day so I'll take it from here. Eri lets say bye to the nice people ok." Overhaul then seemingly had a happy expression on his face and waved the two goodbye while Eri did the same but had dread in her eyes. The sight filled Mirio with dread as well but he had to keep the persona of not knowing anything about the Shie Hassakai up so he just smiled and waved back. Izumi however was standing there and looking at Eri with overwhelming sadness, the sight of Eri reminded her of how she looked back when she was in Middle School where she was constantly bullied and had no love or friendship in her life. Izumi did have her mother who tried her best to support her but from the looks of things Overhaul, her father, treated her like a punching bag as well. afterwards Overhaul just left out the other end of the ally way and like that they were gone. Mirio then let out a sigh of relief but Izumi then collapse and started crying out of despair. Mirio then quickly went to Izumi's side to help her.
"Ah! Izumi what's wrong?!" Izumi just kept crying for some time while Mirio did his best to try to snap her out of it, but she didn't stop wailing in sorrow instead she just suddenly hugged Mirio and continued to cry.
"did you see her! She was hurt! She wanted to run away! And we just gave her back to him! we have to follow them! We have to save her! WE HAVE TO! WE HAVE TO!" Izumi then tired to get up and run after Overhaul but he quickly got up and stopped her from doing so.
"Izumi! Don't! I want to save her to! But we have nothing to justify our actions! Please think of the consequences!"
"FUCK THE CONSEQUENCES! I'M NOT LETTING HER GO THROUGH THE SAME HELL I DID!" Mirio felt he no longer had a choice to try to reason with Izumi so instead he just slapped her across the face. Izumi then looked at Mirio in surprise while put his hands on his shoulders which shocked her because she could feel them trembling with anger.
"trust me when I say that I don't want that either, if I had it my way I would have punched that guy on his stupid mask and then take that girl to the nearest hospital right away. the fact that he willingly admitted that he was disciplining her made me actually want to kill the bastard and that's the last thing a hero would do but if I had to chose to kill anyone it would defiantly be him. but we can't get emotional on the job, yes that girl needed our help but as far as anyone can tell he was just a lousy father. he did really well to hide his villainous side and only showed it through small little hits like what Eri noticed when she ran right back to him.
Besides we both only have our provisional license we're not full fledged heroes yet so we can't act on our own and even if we could like I said, there's not enough evidence to justify taking him down. besides I heard his quirk is overpowered, we could die fighting him on our own. Part of my mission is to keep you the newbie safe, so if I had fought Overhaul it would have been the same as putting a nose around your neck and that's the last thing I would ever do. *sigh* come on, the best we can do for now is report this to Sir Nighteye with any luck this and whatever he and Bubble girl found on their part of the mission we may be able to find enough dirt to warrant a take down and arrest for him and his Yakuza clan." Izumi then took off her visor and looked at Mirio with eyes of pure dread.
"... but how long will that take?"
"... hopefully not as long as you think, just keep standing by the hero code and have hope ok?" Izumi couldn't bring herself to be hopeful of the situation but knew that complaining any further would just be a waist of time so she wiped what was left of her tears and nodded her head.
Afterwards Mirio called Sir Nighteye and they meet up back where the groups broke off, on the street.
"I see, I had not seen this scenario happening, perhaps I didn't look hard enough. I apologize to you both my incompetence has almost put you in danger."
"oh don't worry Sir Nighteye! We had a few close calls but surprisingly for a newbie Midoriya handled it quite well!" Mirio then looked back at Izumi with a big smile but then saw how she was looking to the ground in shame while still in her dark form.
"uh, ahem! Anyways, what do you think sir? is this enough to finally take down Shie Hassaikai?"
"hm, that's can't be said for sure. this is viable intel but I'll have to do further research to see how it all ties together." Izumi then looked at Sir Nighteye in shock.
"what?! But what about Eri! we need to help her! We can't let that monster have his way with her! We have to stop that bastard and-!"
"QUIET!" Bubble girl, Mirio, and Izumi all jumped back in fear.
"do you not realize how fragile law and justice can be? Of course Villains will always try to destroy it upfront but police officers and Heroes will always be there to stop them and fix what damage they cause. but damage Villains aren't the only ones who can cause damage to the balance of the law, there are those that seek their own form of justice because they don't agree with the current laws. as such they become vigilantes that upset the balance and blur the lines between the villains and the heroes from all points of view.
Shie Hassaikai needs to be brought down but if you do such a task without any proof of justification then your essentially a vigilante! You may call your work justice but in the end it makes you no different than a villain! I won't allow your Self-Righteousness to ruin our operation! If you truly gave a damn about that girl you wouldn't be pursuing a selfish desire to enact your own personal justice!"
"wha-? personal justice? no! I don't care about that! I just want to save Eri!" Izumi then up to Sir Nighteye which made Bubble girl lose her colors and Mirio get scared about how this would escalate. Sir Nighteye continued to glare at her with anger but then he calmed down and just looked at her in disappointment.
"... the fact that you want to save that innocent girl more than anything, even at your own expense, is admirable but the fact that you are too emotional to think of the consequences or even make a solid plan is downright pathetic. I expect you to have that talk with your teacher about the subject we discussed the very moment you arrive at school." Izumi was still focused on saving Eri but when Sir Nighteye brought up the One for All subject again she looked down to the group in shame once again. If I don't have One for All, I can't save Eri but then Izumi looked at Mirio who managed to calm down when Sir Nighteye but if he had One for All... then he can defiantly save her! Izumi then stood tall in front of Sir Nighteye and then bowed to him.
"I apologize for my sloppy behavior Sir Nighteye, I understand what you meant when I wasn't worthy, I promise I will discuss the issue with that teacher as soon as I return to the U.A. campus."
"... I'm glad to hear that, oh looks like its starting to rain, let us head back to the agency and stop here for today, but our overall work is not done Shie Hasaikai needs to be brought down and it will be done... the right way."
Later that day, back at the Shie Hassaikai hide out Chronostasis was standing outside the front door with two grunts standing beside him acting as temporary guard for any problems that might come up for the meeting with the League of Villains scheduled to happen today. he stood there waiting and full of boredom but then three police cars drove toward them with their sirens on. wha-?! shit! did those League of Villain bastards sell us out?! fuck, gotta play it cool here's to hoping the police are full of idiots. just then the police all parked in front of the hideout and all of the police officers stepped out of their vehicle's with there being five of them in total.
"ahem! uh is there a problem officers?"
"that depends, this is the hide out of the Yakuza clan Shie Hassaikai correct."
"uh, well yes but we haven't done-"
"good, we have arrived young master." just then the last door opened and Shigaraki stepped out, Chronostasis then grunted in annoyance.
"did you seriously have to give us a scare by having your goons dress as real police officers, I swear even the cars look real. so much effort for a little prank."
"what are you talking about you brat, we are men of the law, we just so happen to be All for One's tools of corruption as well." Chronostasis was taken back by this and it even shocked the two goons beside him as well. their real police officers that also work for All for One?! shit, I heard that apparently All for One used to literally rule the world but I didn't expect his roots to go this deep into the law! and even so how can they still be loyal to him after his defeat from All Might?
"thank you for the escort chief, now then you grunt of Shie Hassaikai, take me to your leader."
"... right this way. but uh, your police officers are going to have to wait out here."
"I will be taking two guards with me."
"... hey listen I may not be Overhaul but you still need to respect-" just then a gun shot nearly hit Chronostasis, just barely grazing his mask, and the same bullet curved mid air and grazed the first Shie Hassaikai grunt on the arm and then the second one on the directly threw his hand. Then finally the bullet spun around and hit the wall of the Shie Hassaikai hide out. the two Shie Hassaikai members then grunted in pain while Chronostasis was trembling in fear as he touched the graze mark on his mask realized that it happened so fast that he couldn't even stop it in time. just then he looked at the police cheif and saw that his gun was pointed at him and smoking as it had just been shot.
"don't ever obey the rules made by the weak, that is the number one law of All for One."
"thank you cheif, but for future reference try not to be so reckless next time."
"I apologize young master, I was only trying to scare them, not graze them. guess this old man is getting rusty, haha."
"actually I would like you to be my first guard and you can chose who will be the second."
"I am honored."
"now then, are you gonna keep pissing yourself or are you going to take us to overhaul?" Chronostasis clenched his fists in anger, if he could just get a clear shot he could nullify their quirks and show them the real power of the Shie Hassaikai but he already know that if he tried the chief would use his quirk to kill him in an instant.
"of course, I a- apologize. but please don't destroy anything."
"be a good dog, and I won't make your master cry by putting you down."
after a while walking through the maze like structure that was the Shie Hassaikai hide out they finally made it to a meeting room afterwards Shigaraki sat on the couch and waited for Overhaul to arrive with his the chief and another officer standing behind him as guards while Chronostasis was at the other side of the room. then after a while overhaul finally arrived with Mimic behind him, thought they were both quite surprised when they entered the room.
"what the hell are the police doing here?"
"their my soldiers, well, actually they belong to my masters old battalion. I was understandably cautions of you after our first meeting so I asked my master for a favor or two and now I have some of his top soldiers who also happened to be police officers. its funny I never knew my master had such deep roots into the law, but I suppose he was feared by the entire world for a reason." Overhaul couldn't help but be aggravated with the flex of political power that Shigaraki was displaying over him and the rest of the Shie Hassaikai but rather than letting it get to him he would take jabs at Shirataki's pride as well.
"tch, like a spoiled brat, asking daddy for gifts to make everything better." the two police officers were expecting Shigaraki to get aggravated but to their surprise he started laughing a little.
"hahaha! your not too far off the mark, I'm more like a baby, I cry and break stuff when I don't get what I want." Shigaraki then put his feet on the table.
"so do your best not to make me mad, or else things will start to get messy."
"put your feet down."
"... what? no please? your manners are awful."
"hm, are you sure your master raised you right? he may have been the number one villain, but he was clearly a bad care taker."
"I personally think he was alright but his daughter might say otherwise."
"... All for One has a child?"
"holy shit!"
"enough about my master and the stupid bitch, that scum wants to be a hero anyways, lets get down to business instead. first off I am fully willing to give you my subordinates as well as the name of the League of Villains for whatever you need to improve your organization but I require two things. one we are to be known as allies, and nothing less. you don't own the League of villains and you never will. we will just be a separate organization that will be assisting you every way we can so long as the goals are worth it. two I want to know what said goals are as well as the details of your plan, since we'll practically be business partners its only fair that I know what I'm investing in. I assume a big part of it has to do with this." Shigaraki the pulled form his coat a nullifier bullet, the same one that was used on Compress.
"So? what's your end goal Overhaul?"
