After the meeting, the teachers decided that Midoriya Bakugo and Sukuna passed the practical exam.

When Sukuna entered the class, Mina, Kirishima, Kaminari, and Sato looked depressed.

"Everyone*sobs*I'm looking forward*sobs*too hearing your stories*sobs*about the training camp." Cried Mina

Midoriya tried to assure them there might be hope. "W-We don't know for sure yet! There might be a last-minute twist!"

Sero didn't wanna give them false hope, so he doesn't want Midoriya to jinx it.

"If we failed the exams, then we'd have to skip training camp and be in summer school hell. And since we didn't pass the practical exam..."

Kaminari turned with two of his fingers extended and stabbed Midoriya in the eyes. " If you guys still don't get it, then you're dumber than monkeys!"

'I wonder if I even passed the practical as well. I guess if I don't, then I might even have a chat with-' Sukuna train of thought was interrupted by the sound of the sliding door.

"Once the bells rings, get in your seats."

silence *

"Morning, I'm sure some of you saw the explosion that happened in the last round. That was caused by Sukuna's quirk. So we have decided that Sukuna has passed the practical exam."

'Fuck me'

"And Unfortunately, There are those who did not pass the final exams."

The four were expecting the worst that are coming next.

" Accordingly, for the training camp in the woods. Everyone's going!"

'A last-minute twist!'

"We can go to!"

"Really!"

"Yeah, some failed, but no one failed the written exam. In the practical, Kirishima, Kaminari, Ashido, Sato, and Sero failed."

"I knew it..."says Sero

'But he was carried out by grape head. why didn't I fail as well.'

"In the first place, the training camp in the woods is one to increase strength. So those who failed need it the most. They had to get stronger."

'Are they terrified of my growth? Is that why I didn't fail?'

"But still. failure is failure. We have prepared a separate time for extra lessons for you all (the ones who failed)"

"Frankly, it'll be tougher than the extra lessons you'd get if you stayed at school."

'But...what about me?'

...

The others are planning to buy some stuff for the exam but sukuna was lost in his mind thinking on why didn't they failed him.

'Damnit...There no point in thinking about the past. I'm gonna need some help on what to buy for the camp.'

"Hey, Midoriya, do you mind-" Sukuna was about to asked Midoriya for dome pointers on what to buy. But Hagakure suggested that class 1-A should go shopping together.

"Hey, Bakugo you're coming, too!"Kirishima demanded Bakugo who was walking away.

"Like I'd do something so irritating."

"Will you come too Todoroki?"

"I go visit my mom on our days off."

"What about you Sukuna? are you coming too."

"Um...I'm...not sure."

"Huh, Why?"

"I-"

Sukuna walked away from them, unsure what to say.

...

The next day, everyone had arrived except Sukuna.

"Sukuna-san is late..." Izuku looks at the supermarket clock.

"Maybe he isn't coming.."Momo said

"Arghh, it's Sukuna after all, do you really think he would come?" Kirishima said with a sigh.

"Now why would you think that, brat?" Suddenly said and attracted the groups attention.

Sukuna was wearing a grey hoodie and a green cargo pants with a set of flip flops.

"Haha...Sukuna! Thought you weren't coming " Kirishima says while scratching his head.

"Um...why are you wearing flip flops?" Mina stated.

"Just felt like it."he says nonchalantly.

"What are those holes.?" Kaminari points at the holes in his hoodie.

"Got into a fight."

"Are you okay?" Ochako asked.

Sukuna is tired of answering their questions and just wants it to be over.

"Can we just go already! Stop asking so many questions." Bakugo screamed, getting impatient.They all split up to buy various needs. leaving Izuku and Sukuna to discuss what they need.'Stuff to buy and...Wait, what am I buying again?'

Sukuna pulled out a list of things that his mother had recommended.

"I'm going to buy some heavier wrists weights for me. what about you, sukuna-san?."

"Ehh, I'll buy it when I see it."Sukuna waved while walking away from izuku.

...

Midoriya pov

"I hope you find what you're looking for!"Midoriya waved

'Even though we all came together. I'm by myself...'

"Oh, it's someone from UA, cool!" A stranger with black hoodie and light blue hair called out to izuku. "Let me have your autograph." The stranger wraps his arm around Izuku neck. "You were the one who got all beat up at the sports festival, right?."

"Y-yeah..."Izuku nervously answered

'Wow, UA's amazing. So many people watched and remembered us.'

" And weren't you also one of the guys who ran into the hero killer in the Hosu incident? That's so cool."

"You sure know a lot..."

"Man, I seriously can't believe it. I can't believe I'd see you again in a place like this."

Izuku was surprised when he heard that.

"It makes me feel like there's something to it... something like fate or destiny. "

The stranger then wrapped his hand around Izuku's neck while making sure his middle finger wasn't touching his neck.

"But well, from your perspective, I guess we haven't met since the attack on UA, huh?"

Izuku realizes too late who the stranger really is.

"Why don't we have tea or something, Izuku Midoriya?"

.

'Shigaraki...Tomura!'

...

Sukuna was walking with his bags in hand, successfully finding all the items needed for the camp when he stumbled upon Uraraka, who was leaning on a railing looking like she was lost in thought.

"Oi, Ochako." he called out. immediately grabbing he attention.

"Ryoumen-san!"

"Come on, I found my stuff, so don't be surprised if you guys can't find me."

"Wait, you're leaving already?"

"Haha! Nah, just kidding. I'm heading over to find Deku."

"...and why are you telling me this?"

"Because I'm better than you all."

"Okay..."

Sukuna suddenly sensed a familiar presence that's nearby. He is immediately pulled to feeling of alert. Almost dropping his bag as he ran towards the source of it with Uraraka right behind him.

"R-Ryoumen-san?"

"We have company."

"Um, I mean, of course we have comp-"

"Bad company."

...

"Act natural, like I'm an old friend. Don't make fuss, okay? Calm down and catch your breath. I want to talk to you. That's all. Just try and do something funny. It's simple."

"The instant all five of my fingers touch your neck. You'll start crumbling from the skin of your throat. You'll turn to dust in less than a minute."

"I-If you do that in a place with this many people, A hero will come and catch you in no time."

"I'm sure, but look at these guys."

Shigaraki points at the people near them.

"Even though they could wield Their quirk at any time, how can they smile and gather like that? When it comes down to it, laws and rules assume that individuals have morals. They're convinced that there's no way anyone would do it."

"Before I'm caught I could crumble twenty-no, thirty people..."

Feeling no way out, Midoriya decided to comply to make sure no else got hurt.

"What... do you want to talk about?"

...

Sukuna Pov

'Now, I should be close. Where is it?'

Sukuna is leaning on a railing while looking for where the source is.

'It's right around here, and...Huh? is that who I think it is?' Sukuna saw Izuku with someone and rushed to get down.

"Where are we going?"

Sukuna pointed, and she saw Izuku with a stranger whose hand was wrapped around his neck.

"Who is...?"

"Come on!"

Sukuna and Uraraka rushed towards Deku.

...

Shigaraki pov

Shigaraki was choking Midoriya, who was trying to pry his hand of his neck.

"Whoops, don't struggle. Do you want to die? you think it's okay for the masses to die?"

"*Hrck*"

'It's so ironic, Hero Killer. I'm your opposite, but you let me live, and now your ideals and convictions will all become a stepping stone for me.'

Midoriya was choking from Shigaraki gripping his neck.

"Deku?"

'Oh, your little friend is here.'

"A friend?...No"

'I guess I should go.'

"Get your hands off of him..."

"*inhales* It's nothing! I'm fine! So don't come close!" Izuku screamed warning Uraraka nto to get close.

Shigaraki finally let's him go.

"Oh, you had a friend with you? Sorry 'bout that. I'm off, then."

"*Whispers* If you try following me, I'll get angry." he Whispers to Izuku.

Uraraka quickly checked up in Izuku to see if he was injured.

"Wait, Shigaraki Tomura! What is All for One after?"

"Who knows? More importantly, you should be careful. The next time we meet, will likely be when I have decided to kill you."

"Well that makes two of us."

Sukuna then came from behind Shigarakiand wrapped his arm around his neck the same way that he did to Izuku.

"Yo! Shigaraki! How are you?"

'It's Him!"

Shigaraki instantly touches his arm not giving a damn about what happens to him while Sukuna continues to question him.

"How's your family? How's your pet? Doing good? Still alive?"

'Why's he still alive!?'

"Hey, I saw that you have an itching problem the last time we met. Let me help you with that."

Sukuna then grabbed his neck and with his index and middle finger he scratches his neck with his claws causing some blood to drop.

"*choking*Let me go!"

Sukuna leans in close to his ear and whispers.

"Show me where your hideout is."

"*choking*Fuck you!"

"Wrong...I said show not tell."

Sukuna squeezes harder while simultaneously scratching his neck deeper and faster.

Midoriya and Uraraka were following him a good distance away.

"Sukuna-san?"

"Tell the others that I'm going to be busy-*smack*" Sukuna was trying to talk Midoriya and Uraraka, he was punched by Shigaraki which is attracting some people around them.

'Damnit! He's not letting go and his arm is tightening even more!'

"Hey now, isn't that rude. I was going to tell them that I'll be busy finding where your base is, but you just had to interrupt me."

His arm tightens while index and middle finger continues to burry themselves in Shigarakis neck.

"*Chokes*...FU*Chokes*CK!...*Chokes*" Was all he could say before he passes out.

Shigarakis body went limp and his arm falls. Suddenly a portal opens up below Sukuna's feet which causes the people to panick and run. He almost fell inside it but but he dropped Shigarakis body and it fell throughim it.

From the portal emerged Kurogiri who screamed "You will pay for what you did!"

"If you could've done that, why didn't you do it earlier!"

...

Midoriya Pov

'Uraraka and Sukuna reported the incident, and the shopping mall was temporarily closed. The heroes and police in the ward undertook an emergency investigation, but in the end, they could not find Shigaraki Tomura even from the blood sample on Sukuna-san's finger.'

'Both me and him were taken to the police station that day and told Mr. Tsukaushi, who is investigating the League of Villains, about the principal offender, Shigaraki Tomura's appearance, and our conversation. At least the blood sample was useful, but I don't know if it did any good.'

"Anyway, thank you, Midoriya and Sukuna." Praised Mr. Tsukaushi but Midoriya wasn't satisfied about how it turned out and Sukuna was frustrated that he couldn't kill him because he had his amplification on the whole time which isn't allowing him to use Dismantle and Cleave.

Midoriya went to meet up with All Might while Sukuna is on his way back home.

Sukuna is on his phone talking to his mother about the stuff that he bought.

"Ryo, are you alright?"

"No! they didn't have a sale today, which is bummer."

"Ryo...I'm not talking about that."

"Right, right, right, they unfortunately didn't have the right batteries for the clock."

"Stop avoiding it...please."

"I'm not. I'm just making sure I dont accidentally break it. Then again, a broken clock is right twice a day. "

"Ryo..."

"Unless if it's digital."

"The police told me you met a villain at the mall."

Sukuna truly doesn't wanna answer it because it would definitely make her worried.

"...I did."

"So please tell me this

.

Did you win?"

"Hah! I made him bleed."

"And you didn't have any injuries?"

"Not yet."

"That's all I wanted to hear from you. Now, come home right now and Stay safe out there."

"Sure."

"Bye,"

"Bye, Mom."

...

In the bar

Shigaraki Pov

"Hah! look at him.What happened to him?!. There's two holes in his neck."Dabi laughed

"I wonder if it's painful for him?"Toga wondered

Shigaraki is slowly getting healed. His eyes are purely rage full against All Might and Sukuna.

"He almost killed me!"

A/N I'm gonna be very busy. So these next chapters are gonna take some time.
