There he was, with his idol All Might, shaking hands! He was closer to accomplishing his childhood dream as All Might congratulated him on getting accepted to U.A. High School. Right next to them however, there was a child being beaten by three other children and Kiriyama walked over to the children.
"Hey! You shouldn't do that!" he told them. He turned one of the bullies around and he had All Might's face. "What?" thought Kiriyama. Then, the bullies all turned around and revealed that they wore the faces of the #2 and #3 Pro Heroes Endeavor and Hawks.
"We've all suffered thanks to them, right?" asked the child on the ground who then stood up and dusted himself off. "You've suffered too haven't you?"

Kiriyama Ken's eyes opened, "Just a dream... a weird ass dream..."
He hastily hopped off the bed. "Shit, my alarm didn't go off, I'm gonna be late for school, mom's gonna get pissed again!" he thought. But the unfamiliar room caused him to remember the events of the day before. Kiriyama relaxes and sat on the bed "Right...I'm a villain now. Would that mean I'm dropping out? And my parents are still on that vacation, so they've got no clue what I'm doing..."
Kiriyama's mind was all over the place, still stressed about the situation he was in. He noticed that he was still in his clothes from when he was training and he smelled like he just ran a marathon. He opened the drawer next to his bed and found fresh, plain clothes to wear and his housekey and wallet that he placed next to the martial arts dummy. He took off his dirty blue shirt when someone knocked on the door.
"Are you awake Kiriyama Ken?" asked a voice Kiriyama recognized.
"Yes, but don't come in, I'm changing." Kiriyama answered, as he took off his dusty black shorts. He took off everything else and put on the clothes he was provided, a pack of plain white t-shirt, a new pair of blue jeans, and even a pack of new boxers.
"Alright, come in Atsuhiro-san." said Kiriyama. "Sorry, for my attitude yesterday."
"You're a lot more polite and calm now that we're teammates, Kiriyama-kun." he pointed out. Kiriyama gave a small smile to the man who was still in his villain costume. "Yeah, now that I'm not trying to kill you guys, I can relax a little."
"I've been asked to tell you some things." said Atsuhiro.
"Like what?" asked Kiriyama.
"We've got a spy in U.A. High School and he's informed us that two classes are going to have a trainng camp. Shigaraki wants the Vanguard Action Squad, which you are a part of, to attack them and take a student named Katsuki Bakugo back here." said Atsuhiro. Kiriyama takes a second to process the information and nodded. "When are we going?"
"In about a week or so, I'll need your phone number to call you when it's time." Atsuhiro answered. Kiriyama hands him his unlocked phone and Atsuhiro enters his contact information and sends his own phone a text from Kiriyama's phone. "Alright, I shall see you soon, Kiriyama-kun. Get yourself a villain attire and name!" said the man in the top hat as he walked away from Kiriyama's hotel room. Kiriyama sat back down and began to think of villain names and designs for his costume and settled on the name 'Blackblood' after thinking that he'll probably just dress in all black, rather than spending time and effort on an actual costume. "I guess all that's left is to go buy a bunch of black clothing and train while I wait for Atsuhiro-san to call for me."
Kiriyama stood up, opened the drawer and took his wallet. He walked over to the door and opened it. His eyebrows raised as he is caught off guard by Toga who was sitting right in front of his room's door. "Toga...chan? What do you need?"
"I'm sitting in front of your door because I'm bored and I was waiting for you to come out." she replied.
"Why'd you come all the way to my room?"
"It's alright, Shigaraki gave you the room next to mine. He wanted us to move out of our old homes but since we didn't have any other place to go since we're minors he gave us these hotel rooms. There's another guy in room 205, mine's 206, and yours is room 207."
"I don't even know how I got here, I think I passed out after accepting Shigaraki's offer."
"Mustard, the guy in 205, and I carried you over there."
"Wow, thanks Toga-chan. I'll have to thank that guy later, I'm going out right now." Kiriyama said, as he closed the door.
"I'll come with you~!" beamed Toga. Kiriyama smiled back "Sure, I'm just getting some clothes anyway and maybe breakfast."
"It's a date then~!" the blonde effused. Kiriyama ignored her statement and walked to the elevator, Toga followed and before the elevator doors closed, Kiriyama saw the door to room 205 open and a teenager rushing towards us. But before Kiriyama could press the hold button the door closed. "Oops" commented Toga.

"MMMM! The french fries here are really good!" Toga beamed. Kiriyama stared in awe at how much ketchup Toga had on her fries. She had used four packets before Kiriyama asked her to stop.
Kiriyama notices the girl had some ketchup to the bottom left of her lips and he grabbed a napkin. "Toga-chan, you shouldn't make a mess when you eat." he said, as he wipes the ketchup off of her.
"You're such a gentleman~!" cooed Toga. Kiriyama takes a handful of fries and devours it. He was starving after the events of the day before. He wasn't able to eat after training because of Toga and Atsuhiro and he passed out after joining the League of Villains.
"Nevermind." said Toga, causing Kiriyama to chuckle. "I'm not making a mess though, so it's all right."
"Just three villains enjoying some fast food right?" asked a voice behind Kiriyama's seat. He looked behind him and saw a teenage boy with light brown, wavy hair taking a bite of a cheeseburger. "Kiriyama Ken, you're a lot different than how Toga described you"
"Sorry, I get a little bloodthirsty and cruel when I'm fighting someone." Kiriyama explained.
"I'm Kiriyama Ken, I'm 16 years old. You must be Mustard." said Kiriyama, extending his hand.
"You're not gonna trick me like how you've tricked the blood maniac" said the boy, referring to Toga."I don't trust you at all."
"Don't interrupt our date, Mustard!" exclaimed Toga. Mustard's eyes narrowed and then he grimaced "Villains shouldn't date each other"
"I agree, and we're not" Kiriyama clarified. "We're just getting breakfast as new teammates after we did some shopping for new clothes, feel free to join us."
"Ehhh?" whined Toga. Kiriyama shrugged and took a sip of his cola.
"I'd rather not. I just wanted to see what you were like, Kiriyama Ken. You don't look like much so you better stay out of my way when we fight those pampered U.A. brats. You wouldn't want to get hurt." smirked Mustard. Kiriyama ignored him and continued to eat his meal with Toga. "Me? Date this girl?" Kiriyama took a quick glance at the blonde and gave an small, approving nod as he ate a french fry. "She is pretty cute, I'll admit. But she's batshit crazy. She'll probably cut me up and get excited as she did it."

Toga and Kiriyama arrived at the forest where they last fought in. Kiriyama dropped the two bags filled with black clothing he just bought and he began to do some stretches. Toga watched his back with a curious look. "What're we gonna do, Kiriyama-kun?" she asked. Kiriyama stops stretching and turns his head. "Do you wanna spar with me?"
Toga grinned and nodded her head excitedly. She gets in a defensive stance and Kiriyama examines her for openings. "She's pretty good" he thought. He throws a right hook as a feint and Toga reads this as she doesn't move. Kiriyama then attempts to kick Toga's right leg but she grabbed it and tried to throw him into the ground, however, Kiriyama shook free. It was Toga's turn to attack and she attempts to throw a flurry of quick jabs and hooks at the boy, who was able to block or dodge all of it except the last jab which made impact with his gut. It didn't hurt as much as Kiriyama thought it would though and he counters with his own punch to Toga's stomach. Toga grunted and fell to one knee for a second before standing back up recovered.
"Sorry, Toga-chan. I should've held back more. Are you okay?" Kiriyama apologized with sincerity, as he puts a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm fine, Kiriyama-kun. It's just I feel a little naked without using my box cutter, so I was kind of wondering if you'd be alright with that..." replied Toga. Kiriyama sighed. He wanted to avoid a blade-wielding Toga, but he also needed some more experience against armed enemies. "Alright Toga-chan... But please avoid my face and don't hurt me too bad alright? It's just practice."
"Yay!" cheered Toga. She then suddenly lunged at Kiriyama and he barely evades her. Toga spins around with her hand that held the box cutter extended and she makes a shallow cut on Kiriyama's shoulder. Kiriyama started bleeding and ignores it. He decided to focus on defense rather than offense and did a good job dodging Toga for a little bit. But she was very unpredictable and she jumped up and put her legs around Kiriyama's neck. He falls down to his back and Toga, who landed on top of him, made multiple shallow cuts on Kiriyama's arms and chest. "She's listening to what I said, but she's still slicing me up!"
Kiriyama has multiple beads of blood coming from the cuts made by Toga. Toga shivered and releases a ragged breath. She was blushing a lot and stared at Kiriyama with lustful and affectionate eyes. "Kiriyama-kun~! You really look cool all bloody... You're making me all excited! It's alright if you show me some more of your blood right? RIGHT!?"
"Toga-chan calm down" said Kiriyama. Toga charged at him, box cutter still in her hand and blood lust in her eyes.
"TAKE THIS!" shouted a voice from the trees. All of the sudden Toga was attacked with a blast of water and gets soaked. Kiriyama turned his head and saw a child in a red hat with water blasting out from his hands. "That's enough, brat!"
The child stopped and Kiriyama grabbed Toga by the hand with his right and grabbed the two plastic bags of clothing with his left, "We gotta get out of here, Toga." Both teens sprinted out of the forest. "I didn't think anybody would've went that deep into the forest, damn! I hope he doesn't call any cops on Toga."
"Sorry, Kiriyama-kun. You just looked..." apologized Toga.
"No, I shouldn't have let you fight me with a knife, practice or not. Besides, blood quirks just have side effects like that." replied Kiriyama. "I mean I get pretty sadistic and lose some control when I fight." Toga tightened her grip on Kiriyama's hand and said in almost like a whisper, "...thanks. Even if you're lying, it still makes me feel better... so, thanks."
Kiriyama raised his eyebrows at her reply. "That was...different. She seems almost like a normal girl this way..." As Kiriyama thought of Toga as a normal girl, he realized he was still holding her hand and his blushed a little but still didn't let go of her. "Soft..." he thought. Kiriyama smiled and enjoyed the feeling of her hand as they ran away from the forest but he finally let go as he remembered Mustard's words. "Villains shouldn't date each other" He frowned as he remembered how he agreed with him and how he still did agreed. "I shouldn't even be considering dating her! She's gonna end up killing me, if that happens..."

The two teens arrive at the second floor of the hotel late at night. Kiriyama was wearing his new clothes after Toga slashed his other ones. Toga was also in his new clothes because she was soaking wet and Kiriyama wanted her to change into something dry. Kiriyama was a little embarrassed to look at Toga with his clothes that were too large for the girl. They walked to their respective rooms and told each other goodnight. Kiriyama watched Toga enter her room and was about to go back into his own, when he is greeted by Mustard.
"Had fun, Kiriyama Ken?" he asked. Kiriyama sighed, he didn't feel like being a polite teammate at that moment because he was exhausted.
"Not really"
"Really? What happened to you guys that made you come back here in all new and all black clothes? You guys look like criminals, oh wait you are."
"Leave us alone, douchebag" insulted Kiriyama. Before Mustard could return it though, Kiriyama opened and shut the door. He dropped the two bags next to his bed, took off his shoes and threw himself on the bed. "Toga Himiko... I guess she's the first friend I've made in the League of Villains...probably the first friend I've made all my life... I...hope she'll be okay when we attack."
