Touch |Shigaraki ff

Chapter 13

Shigaraki and I were now making our way to that Hassaikai. The other's stayed at the base, and we both made our way to that man. "Shigraki, I wanted to-" I started, but he stopped me. "Tomura. " "huh?" "I want you to call me Tomura." He said, and I felt my cheeks growing hot as I looked away. "Well, Tomura... I wanted to thank you. You saved my life or more, my arm back there or something." I mumbled.

He again had the hand on his face, and I couldn't read his expression. "Yeah..." He just said, and I pouted. "What now?" He asked, kind of annoyed. "You could really talk a little more." I mumbled, but he just turned his head in another direction. We noon arrived at the said destination, and we then got greeted by a man with a bird like mask. He led us through the underground for a quiet while. We probably walked for over 20 minutes or something through the underground until we finally arrived at our destination. We were in a room now together with that small black creature, that man with the bird mask, and that Hassaikai. In the room, there were only two couches and a table. Tomura and I stood in front of the couch.

"I was made to walk in circles underground for 30 minutes." Tomura started annoyed. "We were made." I said, and he gave me a glare. I just pretended I didn't see it. "I feel like I've become an ant. What's up with the yakuza's house, anyway?" Tomura asked, annoyed. "We don't know who's watching from where, nor do we know what our guests are thinking. A number of underground routes lead here. This reception room is also one of our hidden underground rooms." Hassaikai spoke. "We've been able to survive until now because of small details like that." The small creature spoke. "What you said the other day on the phone, you mean it right?" The creature asked Tomura. Tomura then sat down and pulled me next to him with two fingers. "That you'd join us as long as cerain conditions were met."

"Don't interpret it in your favor. You guys want the name of our league of villains. We want to increase our strength. Our needs coincide." Shigraki said and put his foot onto the table. "Put your foot down. it'll get dirty." Hassaikai spoke, and I gulped at the tension. "'Will you put your foot down, please?' That's what you should be saying, young head. You should really be bowing to me. First, we won't put ourselves under you. We'll move however we want. Half-in other words, a joint partnership. If that's what it is. then we'll help." Tomura spoke. "So there are conditions?" Hassaikai asked. "One more thing. That plan you said you had. Tell me what it is. That's a real reasonable condition. I want to consider whether or not there's merit in lending you our name. For the matter-" He grabbed into his pocket, and just then a gun was pressed against his head, and the small creature had grown two big arms and held both of us in place. I looked at Tomura with big eyes.

"Get a hold of yourself. You're doing too much of what you want." The man with the bird mask spoke. "Who do you think you are, punk?" The small creature asked. "Who do you think you are?" Tomura then asked them. "One of your disposable small fry versus our hikiishi. Those lives are not worth the same. Plus the worth of one of Compress's arms, and you almost killed Sora with your bullet. If we don't get the concessions from you, then it won't be worth it for us." He said and raised his hand. "Stay back, Kurono, Mimic. He came all this way with his offer. Let's hear him out to the end. You weren't finished." Hassaikai spoke, and the other two released us. I put a hand on my throat. Tomura looked at me for a moment before he looked back at Hassaikai. "Tell me the details on your plan. Well, I have some idea of what it is anyway. It has something to do with this, right?" He asked and held out some small red thing.

"What is this? What are you planning to do with this? Tell me." Shigaraki demanded. "I'm going to break the status quo. I heard All For One ruled by stealing quirks. I fine tuned his methdes a litte. I already have my roots spread out across the entire country. Little, by little, preparations are going according to plan." He told us.

After he told us this, a game of shogie got placed in front of us. "Have you ever played shogi?" Hassaikai asked. "No." Tomura replyed. "Hey! Play!" The small crewture said. "Put that away. I don't know the rules either." He said and pointed at the man with the bird mask. "Come on now; don't say that. Use this chance to learn something new. It'll help you look at the bigger picture. Shogi's interesting because you can use the pieces you take from your oppenent. Give us Kurogiri or Toga, and maybe Bubaigawara. If we let you move freely, it'd be worrying for us, too." Hassaikai said. "They're really useful guys... Tryinf to reduce our movements, huh? They're cornerstones of our operation! Like I'd give you so many." Tomura argued. "Let's build our trust. Right now, there's still ill will between us. I've told you everything about my plan. Next is your turn. Your members are important to you, right?" He said

"You can have Toga and Twice." Tomura then said. "And what about her?" Hassaikai asked and pointed right at me. "You won't get her. She stays with me." Tomura said with a dangerous tone. "Fine, fine, stay calm now."

With that, we finally had a deal and left the yakuza.
