Hello again munchkins! I have returned from the dead! So…sorry for the late updates, exams and shit but now that is out of the way, we cam continue this in a hopefully routine-esque manner!

Let us start now!


The Other One

Chapter 3: Off Intentions, Desire and Goals


"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!"

With all her might, Himiko slammed an object onto a table. It was a card. Nearby, the Villain League's resident Broker, Giran, recoiled in shock as he stumbled back on his sit, cigarette in mouth dropping as he widens his eyes.

"NANI?!"

"You thought it would be your win, but it was mine! Himiko!" The girl said in a triumphed manner as she placed her index, middle and thumb over her face. "Kono wildcard da! [1]"

"…Please stop using broken Japanese text…" Dabi nearby groaned as he lowered his head. "Still…that was a good move…"

Giran grits his teeth and eyed the scene before him. He was JUST moments away from winning a dreadful game that could cost his-

"Will you guys shut up?!" Tomura huffed nearby and lowered a newspaper that he was reading. "How do you make a round of UNO so noisy?!"

"It makes it more exciting!" Himiko chirped nearby and eyed her hand. Judging from her calculations, the wildcard will allow her to choose the next colour, and she only has two cards left! With it being red and green, she…hmm…more or less caught a glimpse of Giran's card as he groaned which was yellow.

Hehe, so close yet so far!

"I choose green!"

"Shit!"

Giran cursed and drew a card until he got a green, which in turn added five more cards into his hand. Himiko grinned nearby and eyed Dabi who strangely remained calm as Giran placed a green card with the number 'Four' in it.

Slyly, Himiko 'lazily' stretched and yawned, prompting Dabi to unconsciously yawn as well. Heh, science, gotta' love em'.

Anyway, the girl took a quick peek and saw a yellow card in hand as she grinned. Dabi's going to have to draw, and though she either get lucky he'll drop a number or same colour, she could win when it's her turn-

"Done."

"…?"

Himiko blinked and saw Dabi placing his yellow card with the number 'Four' in it.

Which also happens to be his last card.

"NANI?!"

She was so fixed on Giran she lost focus on Dabi instead! Dabi smirked and tilt his head to Himiko as she said, "You though it would be your victor, but it was me! Dabi!"

"WWWWWRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYY!" Himiko screeched in defeat, slumping her shoulders as Dabi stood up, walking away from the game as the first victor. It all comes down to Himiko and Giran, though Dabi sighed and sat on one of the bar stools, noticing nearby customers looking amused at the antic.

Nearby, Tomura huffed and said, "Now that's one less noisy head. I swear Toga…"

"That I agree, though she has a knack for the game…"

Tomura shook his head, ignoring the intense Uno game hoping for some silence when-

"CARDO POWA!"

Never mind.

"To the victor goes the spoils as they say!" Himiko smugly said as she placed her final card on the table. "You told me to give up BUT I REFUSE!"

"Kuh!"

The Broker gritted his teeth as Tomura finally gave up and dropped his newspaper again. He eyed Dabi and said, "What the hell are they hung up about losing?! It's just a damn game!"

"See, Himiko challenged us. Losers does her errand while…winners go scot free." Dabi explained as he shrugged.

Tomura pinches his forehead and said, "And why would you agree to that?!"

"She kept pestering me in my room."

"Oh yeah…forgot you were a scum…"

"Damn it that was years ago!"

Kurogiri intervened at the conversation as he said, "What's this errand thing that Himiko requests?"

"Find information. You know when Himiko takes an interest for someone…"

"And…"

"We don't get paid or rewarded, and if we don't comply, she'll pester us to oblivion…"

"Ah…" Kurogiri mused and placed a shot glass in front of a customer. "Seems the Broker has some work cut out for him…"

The Bartender eyed Himiko who whispered something to Broker who groaned but slowly nod. He got up and said, "Oi Bartender, I'll be busy for a week for some…thing I gotta do."

Kurogiri merely nods as Giran left the bar prompting Himiko to squeal in a girly manner. She flailed her arms as she said, "This is going to be so exciting!"

"What are you mumbling about now?!"

"Tomura! I have a crush!"

"You said that weeks ago and news of some guy butchered showed up."

"I know right?!"

"…Just don't bring him here. The previous one before you butchered had to be eliminated by Dabi…"

"And he should've let me finish him off!"

"There's no way going around you is there?"

"Nope!"


Of course, it didn't take long for Himiko to grow bored. Just over an hour after Giran left she was already sitting on one of the bar stools, spinning around as she blew raspberry in a bored manner. The sight of a cute girl doing it didn't bother the customers one bit save for-

"Tomura, I'm bored."

"Go kill someone."

"I did it weeks ago, now I've lost interest."

Of course, Tomura took a quick glance. The fact that Himiko free bored at killing was odd. It must be connected to this new 'Crush' of hers but for it to affect her this much was quite different. And so…in all this…

"I don't care," Tomura shrugged and placed a twenty thousand yen bill on the table. "Go out and buy something."

"Ooh?! For reals?!"

"Just shut up and go…"

"You're the best Tomura!" Himiko giggled and skipped off the bar as Tomura huffed and continued on his reading. He never stopped reading news to keep up over things until he felt a tap on his shoulder. He tilt his head back, ready to smother the person as he was yet againinterrupted from his news reading.

It was Dabi.

"Sensei called."

Tomura stood up without question and walked deeper into the building before coming inside a room where a large flat screen TV stood out of place in an empty room. He switched it on as a voice was heard.

"Tomura."

"I'm here. Dabi said-"

"But of course. I have an assignment for you regarding our…mole."

Tomura quirked his head up as he said, "That person? You really think they're ready?"

"That I believe, though they need guidance, I'm sure they will easily fit in. Please, begin teaching now as we have about…ten months before the application exam starts."

"Understood."


Meanwhile, we go back to our Heroine- err…Villainess, who is currently helping herself a serving of ice cream as she swung her legs fro and fro. It had been a nice day today, her urge to strangely kill diminished ever since…he met them again.

Still, it wasn't that she faltered but rather…she just felt like her mood was switched off for the moment. Deciding to enjoy the day, Himiko carried on her walk. From aimlessly wandering to occasionally staring at cute boys who may or may not become future victims, she eventually find herself-

BUMP!

"Ugoh?!"

"Kya?!"

Himiko felt a hard bump on her back as she fell forward, falling flat on her face with ice cream smothered on her face. Quick as a flash, her instinct kicked in as she quickly stood up, prepared to draw her butterfly knife hidden in her cardigan and-

"P-Please forgive me! I wasn't looking!"

"?!"

Himiko flinched a bit at the sight of a young boy in a hooded jumpsuit who was currently carrying plastic bags and had a worried expression.

Midoriya Izuku.

"I-I'm really, really s-sorry! I w-wasn't looking and-"

"It's okay," Himiko quickly answered as Midoriya eyed her with squinted eyes.

"H-Hey you're that girl f-from the sludge incident!"

Girl from…sludge incident?

Himiko grinned and said, "Oh? Remember me do you? About what may I ask?"

Midoriya gulped at the tone as he saw Himiko enclosed her face towards him. The poor boy shook at the close contact but Himiko never faltered. Though he wished to resume his jog and grocery shopping for both his Mother while partly exercising with All Might, this girl seemed…intriguing suffice to say.

Still, this was the closest any girl got close to him.

Seeing him tensed up, Himiko giggled and flicked his nose.

"Teehee, you're still a nervous wreck Izu-chan!"

"Eh?"

Himiko blinked at the statement, before stepping back as Midoriya eyed her in a confused manner. "That's strange…" He started. "I…never told you my name…"

"Um…it was from the newspaper!" Himiko blurted out. "Uuh…Midoriya Izuku from the sludge incident! Yes! The boy who ran in recklessly!"

Midoriya had a moment of silence when he heard that, sighing at the fact that someone actually scolded him for trying to help a…more or less friend in need. Then again, while he surfs the internet for extensive hero related news, there was a probability that he could be mentioned-

..

In all this, Himiko stared at Midoriya in an affectionate manner. He was so…cute mumbling like that! Still, lest she gets caught, she slipped away silently as Midoriya was in the middle of his self rant before blinking at Himiko no longer standing before him.

What the-

...

Who was the girl anyway?


Midoriya arrived back at home a little bit late than usual due to his encounter with Himiko. The boy had explained to his worried mother that he simply lost track of time and was late for the usual train ride home. Though skeptical, Midoriya Inko believed her son.

Anyway, Midoriya decided to take a long bath as he submerged himself in his bath. Today had been exhausting, that's for sure as it was his first week since he started training with All Might. He had some bruises and scars on his hands due to the extensive pulling but nothing permanent.

Speaking of scars…

Midoriya eyed his reflection in the water…before slicking his hair back. Hidden by his hair, the side of his forehead had a tiny, almost non visible scar. It seemed he got it through a hard impact, as his mother stated anyway but…

He didn't recall it.

He had a good memory that he can be sure off, so when was this? He had his childhood with Bakugou and never a moment he got an injury scar worthy. Maybe mentally but not physically. He had asked his mother before but…she seemed evasive on the question.

He doesn't pressure it much lest she gets more stressed due to him. Sighing, he submerged his head halfway as his thoughts drifted onto another thought.

The girl from the sludge incident.

He had a flash, brief moment with Bakugou when he saw her saving them. She was…bloody if he recall, not out of injury as she doesn't seem to be in pain so it…could be another person's blood. Was she a Villain? Then again, there are rumors of a serial killer on the loose with it's victims dying out of excessive blood loss.

Was she the serial killer? Or maybe she was something else? He hadn't thought of girls much as they usually steer away from the 'Quirkless' boy but…this girl piqued his interest. It wasn't out of a crush but rather…curiosity.

Did he meet her before? Does she know him? And is Bakugou involved? Because she knew Bakugou by calling him Kacchan and…Bakugou even called her name! What was it?

...

Sighing, by now, Midoriya had left the bathroom dressed in his comfortable pajama. As he yawned-

"Ah!"

Midoriya placed a fist atop his other hand's palm as he remembered something. If his memory serves him right…

"Toga…"

CRASH!

Midoriya flinched as the sound of glass shattering was heard. He quickly whipped his head back and saw his mother dropping a vase with a plant she was tending to. Inko had her eyes widen and her mouth slightly agape as she said, "Izuku…w-where…where did you hear that?"

"Kaa-san?"

"W-Where…where did you hear that name from?!" Inko said in a rushed tone. Midoriya was taken aback by the surprised tone but noticed his mother's eyes. It given of the aura of…guilty? Midoriya opts a serious face and said, "R-Remember the sludge incident?"

"What about it?"

"W-Well…t-there was another story to it…"

He didn't know why his mother was so keen after he mentioned 'Toga' but…he felt the need to explain. Whether he will learn something dreadful or not, he decided to be truthful to his mother lest she gets more worried judging from her reaction just now.

The mother and son sat on the living room as Midoriya explained his story, about how a girl, a bloody stained one at that, suddenly leaped into the fray and saved him and Bakugou just as All Might was about to finish the Villain off.

In all this, Inko held a serious face, and even at the end of the conversation, she kept her serious expression which was something Midoriya see rarely in…well…ever. As his mother remained silent to think over things, she finally rose her head.

"Was she blonde?"

"Y-Yes…"

At this point, Inko stood up and walked away with a…breath of relief. "I-I'm sorry Izuku…I just…I just felt like need to go to bed now…" Inko said in a rather happy, yet exhausted manner. What was going through her head? Why was this Toga girl affecting his mother so much?

And so comes the question again.

Did he use to know this girl?


Around at the same time, our dearest Villainess was looking at the night sky through her window as she submerged herself in a bath. Truth to be told…to have met him again felt so…breathtaking. Himiko eyes an envelope near the sink with a smile.

Giran had been fast, and returned back with information on, yours truly, Midoriya Izuku.

She had read the files before hand and was satisfied that he hadn't moved out from the neighborhood and he stayed with his mother. Speaking of which, was Inko fine? One of the few people who Himiko considers to be special in her life.

Though brief, even for a mere minute, she truly felt that she had an actual mother!

Sighing, Himiko left the bath and rinsed her body, before finally finishing up her bath as she left the bathroom with comfy looking pajamas. She yawned as her canine like showed before dragging herself towards her bedroom with Izuku's profile from Giran in hand.

Once within, Himiko rested herself on the bed and sighed out as she opened Midoriya's profile once more. She loved seeing his picture and squeal mentally at the sight of his beaten up face during the sludge incident.

"Giran-san knows his stuff…" Himiko moaned and hugged the picture. Was he beaten up?

Yes!

Was he bleeding?

Yes!

Was he cute?

A huge yes!

KYAAAAAAAAAAAA!~

He was so…in her zone!

Himiko stared at the picture intensely before taking a bite on the picture. Ah!~ she was going to have Midoriya inside of her! As the girl rolled and squealed happily, she took bites of the picture. Stomach problem won't matter due to her quirk so she relished on the picture.

All paper cuts on tongue was closed up by her Quirk as well and after finishing her…more or less supper, Himiko panted on her bed. Maybe…just…just maybe…

AH SHE CAN'T HANDLE IT!


Heat on body.

Sweat making clothes damp.

Oh and a heat between her legs.

The rush! Oh the rush! The boy! The boy who was so nice to her! She just have to see him again! She must have him again! She must make him remember her again! As Himiko ran through the dead night Street in her pajamas, she took a turn before arriving at an all too familiar park.

She ran past by it and into an apartment complex. She had ran towards the roof as she took out a folded piece of paper from her breast pocket. Just as she suspected.

Himiko stood on a tall, yet rundown building as she eyed and apartment building in front of her. However…her gaze falls to a room which was ten meters from her. A room where a certain green haired boy can be seen sleeping soundly.

Himiko grinned.

Without hesitation and ease, the girl took the leap towards the window, falling halfway on the jump…before a bloody tendril etched itself on the wall. Coming from her fingers, the skin visibly peeled itself as Himiko had extended 'fingers'.

She pulled herself towards the window before finally sitting on the edge. So close…oh she was so close. She was so excited that she forgot to bring her favorite knife! But…this didn't falter her. She opened the windows slowly, fingers healed up and void of blood.

She entered the room gently before a rush of excitement course through her body. She slowly tip toes around the room and stood next to Midoriya's sleeping form, grin etched on face as her breathing grew heavy.

Slowly, she extended her hand and placed it on Midoriya's forehead, giggling to herself as Midoriya snuggled on it. It was then…her smile dropped and replaced with a…calmer expression. Though the excitement never left her, she had a brief moment to enjoy the sensation. She brushed her hand, stroking his forehead in a soothing manner.

"Izu-chan…"

She spoke softly with an affectionate tone.

"I…"

She would have continued her words if it wasn't lost. Her eyes land into a specific part of his head. As she was stroking his hair, she took notice of a scar hidden by his hair on the side of his forehead. This was…

"…"

Himiko held her hand back, before taking a step back. Could…could it be? Could…that be…the scar her father gave?! Himiko's smile dropped before the sense of realization hit her. Slowly, she tip toes out of the room and into the window, but note before eyeing a piece of paper on a desk nearby.

"…Yuuei…application?"

"…Hngh?"

Himiko tilt her head back and saw Midoriya snorting in his sleep, before opening his eyes. He had a strange dream involving his childhood, a hand soothing his head which was his mother. Such soothing was so…nice, that as if only a pure hearted maiden could do it.

However, the trance broke as he woke up a bit. He eyed his surrounding and felt his forehead rather…nice. As his sleep gaze lands on the window, he saw the sight of a beautiful girl with long blonde hair.

As he blinked, she suddenly disappeared into the dead night.

Was he still dreaming?


Grumpy.

Check.

Sleepy?

Sure as hell.

Oh…and excessive knocking. Like, REAL loud knocking. For a person who doesn't know, or even be surprised, Shigaraki Tomura cherishes his sleep. He needs energy for the following day to do crimes or even plotting…

But he can't get some shut eye due to someone knocking at the door of the bar DESPITE it was THREE IN THE MORNING. Kurogiri slept like a log, Dabi performs disgusting acts in his room and Himiko…Himiko…hmm…

Where is she anyway?

She was a light sleeper and-

"Hey! Hey! Anyone awake? It's me! Toga! Hey! Tomuraaaaaa! Dabiiii! Kurogiriiiii!...Senseeeeeiiiii!"

Tomura opens the door to reveal a sweaty Himiko in her pajamas. She perked her head up and smiled. "Hey Tomur-"

SLAM!

He slams the door on her face, locked it before walking off, ignoring the loud thumps and-

"If you don't open the door I'll tell that you and Dabi is a Br-"

"JUST GET IN!" Tomura rushed towards the door and swiftly opened it as Himiko giggled and skipped inside the bar.

"Thanks! You're the best Tomura!"

"Where the hell have you been?!" Tomura huffed, not even knowing where to begin. "I don't care if you go killing off people but dear God don't disturb my sleep! Why didn't you use the hidden entrances or even the back door?!"

…?

"I…uuh…forgot."

"Himiko."

"Yeah?"

"Get your ass out."

"Okay!"


Of course, the following day when everyone woke up fresh as usual, Himiko was not. She was copped up in her room all morning as Tomura sipped on a coffee. He didn't care if she didn't wake up like usual but…

"Something wrong?" Dabi inquired nearby as he eyes Tomura who held a grumpy face. "You know what? Nevermind."

"…?"

"It seems the source of your problem is here," Dabi mused and points at Himiko who had just woken up from her sleep, dragging her feet and pillow like usual as Tomura frowned.

"Heeeeyyy~…" Himiko greeted sleepily as she sat next to Tomura. "Been stayin' up all night…"

"Why?" Dabi asked as Himiko yawned a bit, before slapping her cheeks to gain life in her sleepy state.

"I've been thinking…" Himiko muses and eyes an empty television screen behind her. "And I need permission from Sensei too…"

"What is it?" Sensei spoke from the monitor as Himiko sat straight up, gaining the attention of Tomura and Dabi.

"It has come to my attention I'm…interested in taking the next lesson…"

"You're not ready yet…"

"To enter the enemy grounds…"

Sensei fell silent as Tomura raised an eyebrow. "What?" He went in a confused manner as Himiko closed her eyes.

"For my own personal reasons, and our organization's sake…I would like to join in our…other friend."

It was at this point Himiko heard a laugh from the screen monitor. "You...do realize what you are saying right?" Sensei questioned as Himiko giggled.

"Oh but I am!"

"What the hell is it?!" Tomura asked in an impatient manner as Himiko smiled and eyed Tomura.

"I would like to enroll to Yuuei."


End of Chapter

Short chapter, yes, but setting up for future plot. And also, no omake as I couldn't think of one. If you want, the omake could be something requested via PM or reviews…or also a QnA section where you ask a series of questions with the Leauge of Villains as the host.

Haha, hope you guys enjoy as this is a plot set up type of chapter. See you munchkins soon again!

Sorora out.
