"Starting from today, Sora'll be a member of the League of Villains." Shigaraki announced to the other members. "Yay! So-chan's one of us now!" Toga squealed, jumping up and down. "We're going to have so much fun together!" Dabi, sitting in the corner, gave me a sideways glance, his expression unreadable. "So, you're sticking around, huh? Interesting choice, Redhead." He said with a grin, and I smiled back a little. "Thank you," I mumbled.

Some time later, most of us went to an abonded warehouse. Dabi and Spinner didn't come, but the rest of us came to meet someone who had asked to meet up with us. I was standing next to Shigaraki; on my left were Toga and Compress; on my right was Magne. They were sitting on some crates while Shigaraki and I stood in the middle. "You brought a crazy big fish, huh, Twice?" Shigaraki said as Twice entered the room along with a man.

"Big fish? That's iconic...League of Villains." The man spoke. "What is that guy, someone famous?" Magne asked. "Master showed me a picture of him before. He's what you call Yakuza. The young leader of the Shie Hassaikai." Shigaraki introduced the man. "So he's the number two of organized crime? Oh, I've never seen anything like him. He smells dangerous." Magne said. "Organized crime? How's he different from us?" Toga asked confused. "All right, let me tell you. In the past, there were lots of scary groups that ran the underworld. But after heroes started thriving, they were unmasked and disbanned. And once All Might appeared on the screen, that era was over. The survivors who haven't been caught became designated villain groups... In other words, they were treated like villain reserves just scraping by to make a living under the watch of the police. Frankly, they're obsolete and should be a protected species." Compress told us.

"Protected species, huh? Well, he's not wrong." The man said. "So, why is this impoverished yakuza boy here? Are you also on a high because of All Might's retirement?" Twice asked. "No, it's less about All Might and more about the loss of all for one. The emperor of darkness, who ruled over all of us on the underside of society. My generation treated him like an urban legend, but our elders believed they had reasons to fear him. Even after he was rumored to be dead. But this time he showed up in the flesh. In other words, right now for both those in the sun and those in the shadows, there is no leader. So then, who will be the next leader?" The man spoke, and Shigaraki then started to approach him slowly, while I stayed a little in the back. "If you know who my master is, and you're still saying that...Are you here to challenge me? I'm the next leader. Even now, I'm gathering my troops. Our numbers will increase soon. And with that power, I'll cursh hero society, staring with it's head." Shigaraki said. "Do you have a plan?" The man asked him.

"A plan? You little...you came here to join us, didn't you?" Shigaraki said. "A goal with no plan is called delusion. If you present me with a delusion, then how am I supposed to react? What are you going to do after you increase your forces?" The man then told us about his plan; it was a long plan, and we all listened to the end.

"And then, I'll become the next leader." He ended his plan, and the whole league was annoyed with him. "Go home." Shigaraki then said. Magne then pulled out her weapon and attacked the man. "Sorry, Yakuza boy, we didn't come together to be under someone. I'm here because I don't want to be bound by anything!" Magne yelled and attacked the man, and just when she hit him, he pushed off the glove and touched her skin. There was a short second when suddenly Magne exploded, and we all looked at the scene confused, and my eyes widen at the sight. "Big sis Mag!" Toga yelled with pain in her voice.

"You all made the first move. Argh, that's filthy. That's why I hate stuff like this." He said and just then Compress jumped forward to attack him. "Wait, Compress!" Shigaraki yelled, but it was too late. "This guy is trouble!" Compress yelled. "I'll use my compress to seal him away." Just then a bullet hit him, and his arm exploded. "Compress!" I yelled and held my hands up, ready to fire at the man. Just then Shigaraki quickly grabbed me with three fingers and pulled me to the side, before a bullet could hit me in the shoulder.

Shigaragi looked at the man with hate and charged at him; he doged a bullet and just as he was about to hit the man, another man came out of nowhere and stood in front of the man. He got turned into dust, and that man, Shie Hassaikai. A huge man or something broke through the walls, and another one came jumping in.

We now stood there facing the three men. "You're late." Shie Hassaikai commented. "Sorry, I missed two shots." He said as he held up his gun.

"Wait, where did you..." Twice was confused. "We weren't being followed!" He said. "It was probably someone's quirk." Shigaraki said. "It'll be hard to make objective decisions like this. Right, It's unproductive to cut down each other's forces, aynway. We're even now with one corps on each side. It's a good time to stop. Let's cool our heads and talk again another day. We'll owe you an arm." Hassaikai said and went to leave. "Bastard, I'll kill you!" Twice yelled. "Tomura... Can I cut him? I'm going to okay?" Toga asked.

"No," he answered. "Let me take responsibility!" Twice yelled. "No." Shigaraki said again. "Wise decision, Hand Guy." A small creature on the big guy spoke. "It doesn't have to be right away, but the sooner the better. Think carefully about your organization and stuff." He said and threw a card in front of Shigaraki's feet. "Give me a call, once you've calmed down a bit." He said, and they left. "Why did you stop me, Shigaraki!" Twice asked. "Jin, more importantly, take Compress to the base." Toga said. "Right!" Twice said and we then left.
