So Nefariocracy and The LOV were getting more acquainted, cause if you have an alliance, you might as well get to know your allies.

"So you know all the cool places to go right?" Wildweed asks Dabi.

"Yeah. There's this really cool carnival or something that comes like every year around this time. Called the Foolish Festival or something. But they've got a lot of cool attractions! I wanted to go with Shigaraki but we never really got the chance to." Dabi says joyfully. Shigaraki overhears this.

"Look, if you want. We're not busy this entire week. Let's go there. It's gonna be boring anyway since we're all still recovering from our scuffle with those U.A kids." Shigaraki says.

About 3 days later, the festival begins, and the Nefarious League (saying Nefariocracy and the LOV is tiring.) is going. They see a lot of people going have face paint, kinda like jesters. There was a whole lot of things going on outside the tent, normal festival shit like concession stands and games, to more abstract things like sword swallowers and crowds of people getting 2 liter bottles spraying all over them. There was a man with a whip and torn clothes standing in front of a smaller tent, a very small one actually. Dabi, Wildweed and Akumu decided to go towards it and speak to the man.

"Excuse us sir, what's in that tent?" Akumu asks.

"Inside is something that I cannot explain via words. But instead, something I can explain via experience. But this is a festival, so 5 dollars a person." The man said in a calm yet menacing tone. So they gave the man 15 dollars and in they walked. They walked down a hallway that took forever to get to end of. They asked occasional questions that the man briefly answered.

"So, uhh. What's your name man?" Dabi asks him. He doesn't turn around.

"My name is of no importance. It's a name I've left behind. But you can simply call me... The Liontamer."  The man sternly said. After what seems like 3 hours, they finally reach a door. Liontamer opens the door and inside is a singular chair. When they walk in and look around, above the door is a big ass T.V.

"What's all of this?" Wildweed asks Liontamer. "You'll see soon enough." He replies. After that he takes out a walkie talkie and says something into it. A few seconds pass and 2 fire tornadoes appear next to the chair, then the fire disappears and standing there are a pair of twins in chef outfits.

"Why are you dressed like that-" Liontamer asks.

"Boss put us on cooking duty this year." One twin says, he looks an absolutely miserable and skinnier Guy Fieri, only with red hair instead of blonde.

"And you called us in the middle of cooking, so we didn't have enough time to change out!" The other one says, he looks like a skinnier Guy Fieri after he just ate a banger of a meal.

"You three. Meet the Hyde Brothers. Kaen and Hoka. They'll be the ones strapping you into the chairs, but since this attraction has no audio, they'll also be speaking it." Liontamer explains. He points at Kaen, angry Guy Fieri, and Hoka, happy Guy Fieri. Then he walks away.

"So who's first?" Hoka says. Akumu walks up.

"Ah! Pretty lady! Great times are to be had here!" He says.

"You look absolutely miserable. Join the club, bud." Kaen adds after Hoka.

"What's your name girl?" Hoka asks.

"Akumu." She says kind of shyly. The twins nod to each other.

She sits in the chair and the twins strap her in like it's the electric chair and she's about to die. But instead of a rag and electricity. They put two devices on her eyes, one is like the torture device they use in movies to keep your eyes wide open, and the other is like some virtual reality headset of sorts. The TV turns on, but Wildweed and Dabi don't see shit.

"Oh lookie here Akumu! Are those your parents?" Hoka says.

"You also seem to be getting friends in a pace that's errant." Kaen adds.

"They seem to be giving you a lot of love!"

"In an amount that I'm sick of."

"So is this the reality you wanted?"

"Or is it an illusion you dreaded?"

"Because the sad truth is that you got kicked out your house by your parents because they thought you were a monster!"

"Your friends abandoned you when you needed someone to turn to in these dark times, so you became a villain taking over a former daughter."

They take the devices off her eyes and Akumu's face is a mix of emotions. Sadness, distress, anger, confusion and shock.

"Welcome to the Halls of Illusion! Here, we usually put people in to see the sins they've committed!" Hoka jovially exclaims.

"But your group seems to be a case in which your side doesn't suffer because you did something wrong, you suffer because of what the other party benefited from." Kaen monotonously says. Dabi, seeing his friend in a state of pure negativity, is reluctant to go. But he does.

"Your name?" Hoka asks.

"Just call me Dabi." He scoffs.

"That's such a sad name!"

"Actually, kind of lame." Kaen adds. Dabi seems to be picking up that twins act like they're in a Dr Seuss book and finish each other's thoughts with a rhyme. Same setup as they did to Akumu.

"Look here Dabi, it's your parents and your siblings! Such a happy family!"

"Let's just see how this ends in tragedy."

"Your father and mother have a very loving relationship!"

"One too promiscuous that it'd  require some censorship."

"But it's not all fun and games!"

"It's a family that went down in flames."

"Your father was called Endeavor!"

"Though he abused his children, quite unclever."

"He burnt you a cinder!"

"And his wife, used only to make a child of scarring flame and harsh winter."

"There's not much to say about you Dabi boy, other than the fact your dad's an asshole!"

Removed the devices. Wildweed was put in, they didn't get much. He just murdered someone who tried to kill him. That was the only thing seen.

"So... Kaen... Hoka... Mind if I ask a question?" Dabi is unsure whether they will or not answer in his favor.

"Yeah, sure." Kaen shrugs.

"What exactly is the Foolish Festival?"

The twins look at each other. Then back at the three villains.

"You wanna know? We'll tell ya! The Foolish Festival seems like an innocent festival on the outside!"

"But on the inside... It's a bunch of disgusting people like us, thrown out of society because they couldn't handle us. And we don't wanna change ourselves in a way so they CAN handle us."

"A man gave us a chance! A chance to get back at the world! A man you can't get to easy." Hoka says, his expression changes from a grin, to a deadpan look to match his brother's face. In the shadows, a whip cracks, and out of the shadows comes a lion that charges at the three villains, then the Hyde Brothers send fire blasts at them. Now the three villains are in a fight with three other villains...
