Third person:

V! Ochaco: Why are we here?

The affect of the gas isn't permanent, unless you repetitively breathe it. More Uraraka inhales it, the more villainous she looks. Her hair is now longer but it fades into white. She has a ponytail which is white as well. She still has some pink highlights in her hair and her brown eye is now magenta. Her clothes are different too. She has a dark pink shirt on under a black jacket with long sleeves. Her skirt is black and her socks are white and reach her thighs. She has on really pretty black boots. And she now carries a weapon, a giant pink hammer.

Back to the story.

Toga: Apparently Twice left his phone here.
Twice: I didn't leave it here! I just somehow felt the need to place it here and then bring everyone to come back for it.
Shigaraki: You're lucky we did.
Midoriya: Let's just look for the thing and leave. I don't like it here. Plus we're not finished with Gigantomachia.

Suddenly we here a ringtone. We see a phone and Twice grabs it.

Twice: My phone! Hey it's Giran.
Mr. Compress: I've been calling Giran and gotten nothing but radio silence! Ask him if we have damage insurance!
Twice: That guy cares about me more than anyone ever has, he got me into the League, you know. A real mensch, that one.

Twice answers and immediately goes against his respect for Giran.

Twice: Why the hell haven't you been answering Mr. Compress' calls? You're the absolute worst, man!
Voice: Oops, that would be our fault, sorry! Don't be mad at him! Don't tell me. You're Jin Bubaigawara, the villain known as Twice right?
Mr. Compress: A voice changer?
Twice: Who're you? Where's Giran?
Voice: Never mind that. Turn on the news- if you can.

Mr. Compress opens up the news channel on his phone and everyone listens.

News Reporter: Our top story, following yesterday's events, another finger has been found.
Spinner: A finger?
News Reporter: Earlier, a severed finger was found near the home of the Shie Hassaikai boss. Then at Hosu City Terminal on the Metropolitan Expressway, and at ground Zero in Camino Ward, all within the last three days. And now a pinky finger turns up in central Fukuoka, at the sight of Endeavor's recent battle...

Mr. Compress: All places where we've been active lately. That's no accident.
Twice: Who the hell are you, huh?
Voice: I'm the grand commander of the Meta Liberation Army. The name's Re-Destro.
Shigaraki: First the Yakuza, and now the Liberation Army? All you has-been trying to make a comeback. Hear you've been selling lots of books lately. You want to get in on the trend while the getting's good.

Re-Destro: Think again. We're the ones who started the trend.
Twice: Congratulations! What do you want with Giran? You better not hurt him anymore, or you're toast!

Re-Destro: Ah. I've got your broker right here, and he's still alive, of course. Our objective is to liberate all meta humans. To demolish the existing framework and rebuild a world where people can be themselves, where they can use their abilities to their fullest capacity.

Midoriya: Okay, but what does that have to do with us?
Mr. Compress: It's interesting, I don't see why we should oppose any of that.
Toga: Is he trying to exploit our name, like the yakuza?
V! Ochaco: What is the Liberation Army?!
Shigaraki: Give us the broker and
we'll get back to you soon. We're busy now. I'll hear about your little revolution club once our task here is complete.

Re-Destro: While your taking a breather why not just hear me out?
I'm not gonna release my hostage now, because you're not calling the shots. And your friend has told me what a tight-knit group you are. Your broker is an admirable man. Takes great pride in his work. I imagine he's determined to remain in shadows, ever careful to avoid the prying eyes of heroes and police. Sadly, he never thought someone might be lurking in those same shadows, waiting to pounce. Still, I commend him. He had the foresight to delete his client list before we struck. Not only that, but he didn't so much as wince nor did he give you up. But as for that client list? We were able to recover it. I must praise his resistance, futile though it was! We liberation warriors have worked hard. Preparing for years to enact the coming events! We've endure for generations, biding our time, spreading our roots far and wide! "Revolution club?" I don't like jokes made in poor taste. I have 116,516 hidden warriors. And we are lying in wait, ever ready to take action.
