Chapter 7

Days passed, and I found myself settling into an odd routine in the League of Villains. The atmosphere was still heavy with tension, but my interactions with Toga made the days a bit brighter. I would often find her bouncing around the room, her energy infectious. It was hard to stay in a bad mood when she was around.

"Hey, So-chan!" She chirped one morning, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Let's go exploring today! There's so much we haven't seen in this place!"

I raised an eyebrow, considering her proposal. "Are we allowed to just wander around? What if Kurigiri finds out?"

Toga waved her hand dismissively. "Who cares? He's busy, and besides, we can always find a way to sneak around!" Her playful grin made it hard to resist. I found myself chuckling at her spontaneity.

"Okay, but if we get caught, I'm blaming you," I said, standing up from my chair.

"Deal!" Toga exclaimed, grabbing my wrist and pulling me toward the door.

As we stepped into the dimly lit hallway, the atmosphere shifted. The walls felt like they were closing in on me, and I couldn't shake the feeling of being trapped. But with Toga by my side, the fear subsided a little.

"Look! There's a door!" Toga pointed excitedly. She dashed over to a heavy metal door, and I hesitated behind her. "Let's check it out!"

"Toga, wait! We shouldn't—" I started, but she had already pushed the door open.

The room beyond was dark and cluttered, filled with old crates and dusty equipment. Toga stepped inside, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "This place is like a treasure trove!"

I couldn't help but smile as I followed her in. "I guess it is kind of cool," I admitted, moving cautiously around the room.

Just then, a voice interrupted us. "What are you two doing?"

I turned to see Dabi leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, a smirk on his face. I quickly tucked the knife behind my back, my heart racing. "Uh, we were just... exploring?"

Dabi's gaze shifted from Toga to me, a glint of amusement in his eyes. "Exploring, huh? You know, that's a good way to get into trouble."

Toga bounced over to him, undeterred. "Oh, come on, Dabi! We're just having some fun! Right, So-chan?"

"Right," I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt.

Dabi stepped further into the room, studying me closely. "What's your real name, anyway?"

I hesitated. "Sora... Sora Todoroki." I felt a wave of vulnerability wash over me as I revealed my name.

Dabi raised an eyebrow, his smirk fading slightly. "Todoroki, huh? Isn't that the name of one of the top heroes?"

"Yeah...my father." I stated, and I watched as his smile slowly faded. We soon went back to the bar room, and Dabi and Toga left soon after. Now I was again staying back with Shigaraki. I watched him again playing his video game. "Shigaraki?" I then asked. "What do you want?" He asked annoyed. "Can I play too?" I asked, and he turned his head a little in my direction. "Are you stupid? You're my prisoner." He stated. "But I'm bored." I mumbled and pouted. "If you run, try to use your quirk or do anything like that, I'll kill you." He threatened me, and I looked at him surprised. I actually didn't expect him to say yes. He took out another controler and opened my cuffs. He gave me one last suspicious glance before he went back to playing.

I've had quite a hard time, but eventually managed to get the game. "Did you see that attack!?" I yelled as I pointed at the screen in excitement. "I bet you'd never managed to do that!" I said. I now stood up and stood on the couch as I kept playing. "No! no! Bastard! He cheated! He sure cheated!" I yelled and pointed at the screen. Where an enemy just killed me. I flopped myself again down on the couch and watched as Shigaraki saved the round and won. "aw man, that's unfair." I mumbled and let myself fall back on the couch. From the corner of my eyes, I watched Shigaraki, and this time I actually could see his face a little more; the hand covers most, but I actually saw his mouth, and to my even bigger surprise, he held a smile that soon dissapeared, but I promised to keep that in mind. He may not be just that cold-hearted villain he always tries to show.
