At the LOV bar

*We see shigaraki, kurogiri, himiko, twice, and those other who weren't arrested from the failure of the USJ incident, they were all kneeling as the TV in front of them was showing a static image of their boss, AFO. Shima had his head resting his head on his fist as he looked at his workers*

Shima: So. Not only did you all fail to fight all might. But the expensive multi-million dollar bioweapon is in the hands of the heroes, in a location where the informants don't know where it is, Is lost to us

Kurogiri: Yes, sir. I've got all of our informants keeping their ears open for any piece of information, but for the most part, they're coming back empty-handed

*Kurogiri said, even if shigaraki was the leader, everyone more or less knew that kurogiri was the real person in charge, shigaraki is more of a....figure head*

Shima: Hm, and what about the Iron Man boy? Did you get anything from him? Oh. Wait. You didn't.

*Shima said, as his static image changed to video footage, of izuku using the Iron Man suit, to defeat the nomu with the help of two other students. Shigaraki was about to throw a tantrum, but kurogiri moved his hand in front of his face, keeping him quiet*

Kurogiri: Yes. We were not prepared with him being not only a mechanical genius but a strategic genius as well

Shigaraki: it was just dumb luck

*Shigaraki muttered, but Shima heard it all too well, as the video footage returned to the static image of their boss*

Shima: Luck or not. The results are all the same in the end. We lost. Society is now seeing UA as stronger than ever, and because of that, the sports festival will not start months ahead of time, like we originally planned it to. All of our plans need to be modified because you all failed to capture 1 boy.

Kurogiri: Yes, sir. We will be more prepared for the next time we encounter the target.

*Kurogiri said calmly, thinking of the current status of the target's father in the basement. Shima nodded and then moved his head slightly to shigaraki. Even if the image was static, shigaraki could feel the master's eyes on him, making him lick his dry lips nervously*

Shima: I should hope so. Kurogiri. Teleport shigaraki to me. Seems as the boy needs proper punishment for talking before spoken to

Shigaraki: W... Wait, what?!

*Shigaraki explained as he looked at kurogiri and the monitor on the screen. He didn't get to look for long, as a portal appeared under him, making him disappear. Shigaraki screamed, but no one dared to look up, less they were next to deal with the boss's fury*

Kurogiri: Yes, sir, will there be anything else you'll need?

Shima: We're done for today. Kurogiri starts changing our plans for when the sports festival will actually start

*Shima said as he turned off the monitor. Kurogiri nodded, and everyone got up. They all looked at him, waiting for him to give them orders*

Kurogiri: All right, the rest of you can go and rest. You have the day off

*Kurogiri said as he walked behind the bar and started to clean glasses. Everyone left to do their own thing. A few stayed around the bar. Just as things were quieting down, the door from the basement opened and out came out one hisashi midoriya, with a suit similar to kurogiri.*

Kurogiri: Finally, bring me those cases. You shall assist me in refilling the wine bottles

Hisashi: Y... Yes sir
