"Speaking" 'Thinking' ~Pico~

The train came to a stop and Shioru took Izuku's hand in hers. The two got off of the train and quietly made their way out of the station. Pico was comfortably sleeping in his arms as they walked. Shioru nudged his shoulder, telling him that the man was still following. At this point both of them had large sinister smiles on their faces. They continued walking down the path, however the two took a detour down a dark alleyway. This would intentionally lead the man to the Casino. He'd open the world of the Casino to the man so that Shioru can have her fun.

Izuku stopped dead in his tracks as they'd hit a dead end. Izuku turned to face the beginning of the alley. "Why are you following us." Izuku spoke calmly.

The man that had been following them seemed to startle at the fact he'd been discovered. "..., how long have you known...?" The man asked. His voice was husky and kind of dry. To the point it sent a light shiver down Izuku's spine. Like he was someone not to be crossed. Izuku simply shook the feeling away.

"Since you started, back at the cafe. You didn't exactly make it hard to find out. You blatantly showed yourself when a crowd formed as well. As if you were trying to blend in. It's kind of hard to blend in when you're dressed as a manic gym teacher though." Izuku told the man with a small smile. The little girl in his arms didn't move an inch.

Aizawa noticed something off, he'd been following three of them. That woman that was with them where is she.

"Oh, so now you notice." Shioru whispered in the stranger's ear. She went completely undetected. The man dang near threw himself forward and faced towards her. "Ah, looks like someone didn't hear me coming." Shioru told him.

"Well, you were the one to follow us first. Not my fault that you get startled from little party tricks." Shioru told him with a sinister little smile. "You know, if something like this took place back home, I probably would have been forced to take your life." Shioru threatened the man. 

"Shioru, no use threatening the man. You know what we're doing this for. If he's not useful, leave him be. We're recruiting right now, I'd rather not have a criminal record on my head thanks. Not to mention "Home" is simple terms for in your own head." Izuku told the woman. Shioru looked at him with a glare.

The stranger seemed to exhale in relief. Though the man's words didn't escape him. "Recruit" meaning their aiming to catch attention.

"Who are you people?" The stranger questioned. The two smiled. Though the stranger still had his eyes on Shioru, she suddenly disappeared like she was never there. The man turned and glanced towards the other, there stood both of them. Both the man and the woman.

"I don't exactly have a business card to hand out." Izuku said as he huffed to himself. "Shioru, I'm not sure if he's the one. He seems like he might be attached to authority." Izuku told her.

Shioru looked at him in surprise then back towards the man. She clicked her tongue before crossing her arms and stomping. "That's so not fair, he was blatantly following us like he wanted a peace of the action! Why not just try it out, maybe he'll want in!" Shioru told him.

The stranger was starting to get nervous. They were talking amongst themselves like he wasn't even there. "Be quiet, you'll wake Kaoru." Izuku told her.

Shioru once again clicked her tongue and looked towards the man in black. "You, you're curious right, come on, say that you are. If you aren't that just makes this entire interaction pointless. I'd of waisted my time here." Shioru pouted.

The stranger stayed quiet for a moment. Clearly there was a chance of this being illegal, but at the same time, they hadn't taken any actions to attack him. Though that was probably thanks to the man that told "Shioru" to stop coming at him. The stranger gripped at the stranger scarf around his neck for a moment before hesitating. 

He might as well try whatever it is out. If it's illegal, he'll deal with it then.

"Shioru I told you, he's probably in line with the police or something. If we get involved with them then business will just be terrible..." Izuku told her, irritated that she can't get that through her head.

Shioru waved him off. "So what if he's got something to do with the police, do you know how many police officers defect in that line of work. A lot." Shioru told him. Izuku slightly inhaled a sharp breath in and then pinched at the bridge of his nose. There really wasn't anything he could say to get her off of this. He huffed and nodded and all she did was a simply yes sign with her arm.

"So stranger, what do ya say! It'll be fun, promise. Not only that, I'll make sure you get to keep your life. No point in taking it if you're not even a part of anything." Shioru told him. Izuku face palmed as he listened to her. He started to shake his head as he walked out from the alley towards the stranger.

"I warn you, stranger, if you get mixed up with her, you're in for a life of fun..., that's for damn sure..." Izuku told the man as he attended to the woman who started being handsy.
