I glared at the ground. It's alright. If I was kidnapped, someone would come and save me, right? Like All Might? I sighed. All I could do for now was to see if my quirk could even work at all. Looking around, the only objects small enough for me to teleport were glass cups. Starting at it, I focused on teleporting it slightly to the right. If it worked, then there would be a black mist or a portal, at least some indicator that it worked.

I stared at the cup until I thought my eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets. No indicator. No black mist surrounding it, no portal opening. Nothing. Zero, zilch, nada. I sighed, slumping back in my seat. So it was confirmed that I couldn't teleport out, or anything for the matter. I doubted that the League of Villains actually removed my quirk, otherwise I wouldn't be here at all. Handsy, who introduced himself as Shigiraki, saw my lack of attempting to escape, and clasped his hands together. Not the ones on his body.

"All we have to do is wait for the other boy to wake up, " he said to the other members.

Another boy? I looked to my left. Surely enough, Bakugo was right there, chained up and in the same predicament as me. Oh shit, I had to come up with something, fast. The most obvious idea right now was to gain their trust and wait until the heroes come, or until they allow us to go out on our own and stop injecting me with whatever was nulling my quirk. The second idea was to wait it out and put all my trust in the heroes. The third idea was to succumb to the villain's side and be a villain for the rest of my life. None of those options sounded very appealing right now, especially not the last one. The first one could possibly get me killed if I even tried, which left the second one. I guess I was going to wait it out, or at least until Bakugo woke up or something.

"Shigiraki? I didn't know you were into this kind of kinky stuff, chaining me up and all, " I blurted out before thinking.

  Oh shit, I was going to get myself killed already. I hope that my parents find my funeral plans buried inside my pillow and play 'Another One Bites the Dust' at my funeral. Goodbye mom, goodbye dad. Wait, I couldn't die if I'm already dead inside. That means I'm immortal. If anything, the kidnapping was making me go even crazier than I already was. Trust me, I was already keeping the weird stuff to a minimum in my head already.

  Suddenly, I heard a little snort of laughter. I looked up to see Toga puffing her cheeks, trying her best not to laugh. Dabi on the other hand, wasn't even trying to hide it. Slowly, one by one, the League started laughing. Actual laughter. I blinked owlishly. What the actual hell was going on? Actually, I should speak for myself, I literally accused what looked to be the ringleader of the League of Villains for having a kink of chaining kids up. I guess crazy attracts crazy, right?

  Shigiraki barely reacted, but under his hand, I saw his eye twitch. Oh well, I really was going to die today, wasn't I? I hoped at least Shoto would kiss my dead body goodbye or something. I looked towards Bakugo, who seemed like he was finally waking from his slumber. Why did they bother chaining me to a piece of rock if my powers were being nulled? Some things in this world just didn't make sense.

"Okay, so can you get on with your ted talk about how you want us to be villains?"

  Shigiraki blinked. How the hell did I know? Well, for starters, Mr. Compress was literally talking about this when I was in his pocket. He literally said 'Alright I can't wait to hear Shigiraki try to turn them into villains. I'm 99% sure that the blonde one will try to explode the base '. And hey, it was fairly reasonable to assume that Bakugo would, especially after the sports festival, where his... Anger management issues we're displayed across public television. Secondly, Shigiraki wouldn't kidnap us unless he needed something, or someone -- Bakugo and myself. And ever since Star Wars was a thing, 'join me in the dark side' things had become something that she would barely count as unusual.

  The only thing was, she didn't want to join them. Sure, Dabi was cool, and if she joined them, the pros would be Dabi, and only Dabi. Cons would be that all her family and friends would hate her, she'd be considered a menace to society, and frankly, how the hell was she supposed to make people smile as a villain. She did not belong here, she had absolutely motive for being a villain. Meanwhile, if she didn't join them, pros would be she could be a hero, what she actually wanted to be, her family and friends wouldn't hate her, and she wouldn't have to do stuff against her own will. Cons would be that the League of Villains would be after her head, or most likely execute her on the spot. She shivered at the thought. No way. She was too young to die, and most definitely too young to meet Satan himself yet.

  While she was busy thinking, Shigiraki actually went on that villain speech that she had mentioned. When she snapped out of her thoughts to listen for a second, the first word that came to mind was 'bullshit'. Why was I even part of his plan? I felt like any second now, All for One, that myth, was going to come out of a portal and snatch her quirk.

  Guess what? He fricking did come out of a portal. And guess what x2? Shigiraki called him father. Tea? Spilled. Weave? Snatched. Hotel? Trivago.
