After two whole months of hiding and surviving, we had word that there's a possible giant villain who follows All For One's every command thanks to Intel from the Doctor. So here we are standing in front of Gigantomachia hoping for him to join us and follow shigiraki's commands instead. I tighten my grip onto shigiraki's hand as Gigantomachia looks down at us as he talks "I've searched so long. Now I've found you at last. So, are you really the leader who will succeed All For One?" "I didn't think he'd actually be a giant..." I snap myself out of my thoughts and pay attention as shigiraki who moves a finger on the hand that rests on his face as he speaks "Kurogiri, is this the 'formidable power' left by All For One? I'm not impressed." I chuckle lightly "you rarely are impressed Tomura" Gigantomachia grunts as he lifts his arms and hits the ground making us all fly up and away from him. Me and Tomura embrace eachother tightly both of us tumbling on the ground until we come to a stop, Tomura on top of me... I blush deeply "He's so close! I'm glad I have my mask on..." We quickly stand up breaking the embrace and look up at Gigantomachia who yells "Why would you do this, All For One? I can't believe it! Tell me why, Master! He's too weak to deserve this!" The doctors voice sounds from the radio "You seem to have run into some trouble, Shigiraki." "Doctor." shigiraki replies
"I trust you've been well?" "Ask me again in a minute. Might be game over then." I look up at Gigantomachia who continues to yell and cry... "Hm a softie for our Master..." I mumble quietly. Ignoring everyone as I stare at the Giant that runs towards us being hit by Dabi's quirk but having no affect, he doesn't stop not until... "Machia. Machia" "those words.. sound like All For One." I look at the radio that Gigantomachia cradles it to his face. "That's a recording of All For One's voice. I knew it would calm the big guy down" he doctor explains I look up at Shigiraki as he speaks "He's more trouble than he's worth." He takes off the hand on his face, the doctor talks through the radio "You sure? He could be quite handy to have on your side in the future! All this time with kurogiri's made you simple. Smarten up, boy." "Now doctor, there's no need to be so harsh." "Hmm... Let me try something else. One second." I narrow my eyes "what do you think he's up to-" I get cut off by a black like substance spurting out of my mouth. The same thing happens to everyone else and we're teleported to the location of the Doctor I cough and wipe my mouth "Disgusting..." I look at shigiraki as he asks "Where are we?" I shrug and look around. "Nomu's..." I mutter "They don't look like the one's I've seen before" comments Dabi. The chair turns as the doctor speaks "Dabi! I'm impressed you can tell the difference. I knew you had a keen pair of eyes. These little ones are different, nothing like mid or low-level nomu. These are high-end, my finest work. Super nomu. Dare I call them masterpieces?" I glance at shigiraki as he speaks "Good timing, I've been looking for you. There's a certain something I want you to duplicate." "I've noticed you've let your hair grow out, it suits you. Your father and the others, are they doing well?" "Sure." "I'd prefer my location remain a secret, which is why I summoned you all here by transmission. Besides Shigiraki and Rina your faces are all new to me. Much like Gigantomachia, I'm a close aide of All For One. I'm Daruma Ujiko. I came up with that name myself, you like it? Now then, to business. I brought you here today because of an agreement I made out of deference to our former boss. My life, my tech, expertise. And of course my little one's, here are dedicated to the great All For One. Up until now, you've been getting by on my scraps, my leftovers. It's not that I dislike you. I just have to be cautious. I need to make quite sure that you're worthy to receive the fruits of my labour. Because so far, I'm unimpressed. A 22-year-old reject and his 20-year-old little girlfriend" "not his girlfriend" I quietly comment and the doctor continues to speak "hanging around the dregs of society? What can you do to change my mind, Tomura Shigiraki?" A small pause happens between us before shigiraki speaks "Honestly, I don't remember much about my life before I met you and Master." "Yes I'm already well aware of that." Shigiraki grabs the hand he took off his face and continues to talk "And yet when I put on of these on my body, there's an uncontrollable rage that spills over. Ever since that day... I've been thinking about what happened. I've no memory of my life before my master held me that day. I was just an empty shell, utterly hollow. It came rushing back to me in fragments. With a frustration so intense, I felt sick to my stomach. When I put them on, it's so strange. Though it still makes me feel sick to my stomach, wearing them washes calmness over me. Don't you think that's bizarre? My mind's empty, beyond those flashes and fragments, and yet there's a heaviness in my heart, like a lump of lead. Never moving, fueling the rage that propels me, but never brings relief. Mmm... Even if we bring down hero society... Even if I rule the ruins from the shadows... That lead will be with me my whole life. That's why I despise all in existence. All that lives and breathes presses on the weight of my soul. So, then why shouldn't I destroy it? Why must I suffer it? When this world falls we'll see the glorious new horizon that awaits. So why not lend me a hand? I'll show you the halls of heaven and the depths of hell." The doctor laughs and speaks "You sound like a kid playing a bad guy! I'm amazed you got through it with a straight face! Ah, why not? I'll help you achieve your vision, but only if you can back up that speech with action. A villain's philosophy is worthless if he can't bring his dreams to life!" I glance at Toga as she speaks "Tomura, those ideas of yours seem a little deranged, if you ask me. Like, do you even wanna destroy everything I love?" "There's always room for my comrades' wishes. Live how you want to." Shigiraki replies Toga jumps up in celebration "Alright!" I sigh and look at the doctor as he speaks "You passed the test with flying colours. You're appalling." I narrow my eyes "He was testing us?" I look up at shigiraki as he speaks "Hold on. You were testing me?" My attention snaps back to the doctor as he talks "I planned to work with you from the start, but I had to see some growth. I can't just bestow these powers to just anyone, you know. That said, I can't hand them over yet. You're all far too weak. But there is something you can do to prove to me that you're ready. That big guy might be dense, but he's valuable to us both." I raise an eyebrow "So we'll have to win him over?" I question quietly, the doctor continues to speak "Though unlike me he hasn't accepted you as his own. Do you catch my drift? If you can make Gigantomachia submit to you, then everything I have will be yours to use as you see fit. If you want what I offer, you have to seize it for yourself." Shigiraki replies "Fine. But was that self-indulgent tutorial necessary?" I glance at Dabi as he speaks "Just so you know I'm not helping" "It's not like we need you" I grumble and glare at him "Don't be such a brat because your flames didn't work on him" Toga interjects and Dabi replies "That's not it you maniac. I have a good potential ally in mind, I'm going to focus my energies there. Do you object?" I glance at Shigiraki who turns his attention to Dabi as he speaks "No. I look forward to meet them." I huff "Good we didn't need that Jack-o'-lantern Imbecilic good for nothing-" the doctor cuts me off as he speaks to Dabi "In that case, Dabi, I'd very much appreciate your help testing out a high-end Nomu. I have just the one. It will pair elegantly to your aesthetic. A perfect match!" "Did you even hear what I said?" Dabi questions and shigiraki speaks to the doctor "Send us back now, so we can get started. I feel like I could take on the world." A device lifts up from the ground in front of me and Shigiraki. The doctor speaks "From this point forward, contact me using this device exclusively." Shigiraki grabs one of the device like buttons "Time to work Johnny. Back to Gigantomachia these little soldiers go." The doctor says and the little Nomu splurts out the black substance shooting it to our direction. Shigiraki let's go of my hand as we teleport in front of Gigantomachia and he speaks "Hello. Now, are you ready to submit to you future King and Queen?" I blush slightly and keep my attention on the giant who glares at Shigiraki more than me.

Observing from far away we watch Gigantomachia defeat Shigiraki's Copy. It's been a month and a half and no progress was made for Shigiraki but for me Gigantomachia liked me more. "And another win for me Tomura~" I tease him, he grunts and grumbles "Shut up you're too pretty not be Liked" I blink quickly and look up at him "Huh?" "Nothing." "No you said something-" I get cut off by a big gust of wind knocking us away from Gigantomachia but then a big hand catches me before I fall I look up at the Giant that grabs me "Oh why thank you big guy you can put me down now" I smile softly but Gigantomachia lifts me up to him, I look down at Shigiraki and the others. I look back up at Gigantomachia who just throws me towards Shigiraki   "Tomura look out!!" I shout and I brace myself for impact but two arms embrace me and we both tumble on the ground roughly ending up with Shigiraki on top of me I look up into his eyes and he smirks cockily "you're not winning just yet.." I roll my eyes playfully and push him off me "Yeah yeah.. still doing better than you though"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sit with Shigiraki I used a lot of my energy healing the others and myself last night only to get more injured, I lean my head on his shoulder and look at Compress as he speaks "The monster's asleep. As massive as he is you'd think he'd stop to eat more." Toga interjects "Hey, Tomura Rina you two still alive over there?" I nod and smile slightly "Just peachy.." I mutter, tomura speaks "Yeah. The big, dumb bastard's slowing down a lot. I'm way closer now than when this whole saga started. I'll bring that overgrown gorilla to his knees. Sooner or later."
A comical ringtone comes from Twice's phone and he speaks "It's Giran. Wonder where he's been." Mr compress interjects "I've been calling Giran and gotten nothing but radio silence! Ask him if we have damage insurance!" "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 the phone and then yells "Why the hell haven't you been answering Mr compress' calls? You're the absolute worst, man!" Though instead of it being answered by Giran it was someone else using a voice changer. It turns out the guy calling us was Re-Destro from the liberation army...
