96: 𝐻𝑜𝑤 𝑝𝑎𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑐
Todoroki stared at the man as he turned his attention to them. Stomping forward.
"You're the little brat on the inside right?! Don't tell me you're still pretending to be one of them!" He growled. "Plans have changed, let's kill these rats and go find Shigaraki!!!"
The hero course students stalled. Eyes wide as they glanced at Todoroki who stared at muscular in surprise. A shiver ran down their spines at the idea. Todoroki could betray them again, right now.
There was a thick silence. Todoroki balled his fists, his hands shaking. Bakugou watched the boy with a calculated glare. Waiting.
"No! You don't know what you're talking about!" Todoroki yelled back suddenly. Getting over his shock. "I don't need to do that anymore!!! I WON'T BETRAY THEM AGAIN!!"
"That's the spirit!" Kirishima said happily. Patting his back.
Muscular snarled. Bearing forward, muscle reforming over his arms as he prepared to attack. "THEN YOU'LL DIE FIRST!"
He moved towards them, fist balled. Todoroki was defenseless but stood his ground, taking in a deep breath. He watched not having any plan. All he could think about was proving to these students that he was on THEIR side. And no one else's.
Muscular let out a battle cry that was practically a roar, Kirishima used his full quirk. Hardening every inch of his body and jumping to block Todoroki. Though he didn't take much damage he also couldn't absorb the blow, so he went flying. Todoroki stared in shock and confusion, Kirishima was alright. But he was covered in rubble. Jumping up and throwing the rocks that had fallen on him when he hit the wall.
He didn't have time to take another hit, and no one else had time to get to Todoroki. Who stood defenseless. His veins pumped adrenaline, he felt nauseous and scared for the first time in awhile. Normally he had no fear in combat, but he had no quirk right now. He was defenseless.
His body hummed in complaint, begging him to use his quirk. But he knew the moment he did he'd be out cold.
"You're all foolish kids, you think you can stand against me?!" Muscular yelled. Charging at Todoroki. "YOU'RE TOO COWARDLY TO EVEN MOVE!!!"
Click
There was a beep. Then a click. Todoroki felt the tight metal around his arms loosen and drop to the ground. His eyes widened and without hesitation his body started to catch fire.
"DON'T JUST STAND THERE!!!! MAKE YOURSELF FUCKING USEFUL!!!" Bakugou screamed, blasting towards Muscular as he made his way to Todoroki. Who frozen him without hesitation. Now fully focused on Bakugou.
"You let me go?" He asked him as Muscular broke free from the ice with a frustrated scream.
"DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY!!! I STILL DON'T FUCKING LIKE YOU!!!" Bakugou yelled, blasting Muscular from behind. "I JUST WANT TO KILL YOU MYSELF IS ALL!!!"
"You saved me!" Todoroki yelled back. Running towards muscular and freezing him to the ground expertly. So Bakugou had another window to blast him. "Thank you!"
"SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!" Bakugou yelled. Aiming rapid explosions at the muscles protecting Muscular's face.
"I'M SO GLAD WERE ALL GETTING ALONG!!" Kirishima cheered. Blocking Jirou as a big piece of ice flew towards her. She blasted a few more with sound waves.
"NOW'S NOT THE TIME FOR THIS SHIT!" She yelled at Todoroki and Kirishima. As they all kept fighting. Kirishima and Todoroki were happy that Bakugou chose to give him his quirk, it displayed the fact that he trusted him now...
At least a little more.

"Looks like you're moving back. Is it to try and get away from me?"
All for one asked. Knowing damn well Kira couldn't answer any of his questions.
"Don't bother hiding. I know where all of the pros and hero course students are at all times. Thanks to the quirk I got from that pathetic cat hero."
Kira had started to adjust to the voice in her head, walking without assistance. Though Kaminari stood close by just in case.
Her jaw was clinched and so we're her fists as she dealt with her pain and anger.
"Though perhaps getting farther away would numb the effects of this connection. You see I have a quirk that allows me to communicate through radio waves, that's how me and Toumura keep contact. Normal I'd need to install a second quirk in the one I plan on communicating with. But your quick already works in a similar way! So it was unnecessary."
"I wish he'd stop yapping." Kira mumbled.
"What's he thinking about?" Denki asked.
"He's not just thinking. He's sending me messages on purpose, he's talking to me." Kira shook her head on instinct. Like she could get him out of it.
"Ribbit. Why?" Tsu asked.
"Not sure." Kira said with a grunt. "But it's damn annoying."
"You know I don't have anyone that I feel I can freely talk too. A part of me always wanted a companion to just chat with."
Kira rubbed her eyes. Hoping desperately that the most evil and powerful villain in the world didn't start using her as a shrink to dump his problems on.
Especially because she couldn't talk back.
"Besides you Interest me. A part of me truly regrets not reaching out to you when you were younger. We could have been excellent allies. You would have made a perfect disciple."
"You okay?" Denki whispered with a worried expression as they walked towards the car pulling up to pick them up.
Kira looked up at him. Not knowing what to say. "I just... I just need to get back to the dorms." She muttered. He nodded and wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
"But I wasn't fully confident in my ability to keep you under control... I wanted to wait and see what your relationship with your uncle would turn into, if it would grow or if your hatred for him would ripen. Unfortunately you two seem to be quite healthy towards each other. After all the time you spent in that little house."
Kira swallowed dryly. Her tounge sticking to the roof of her mouth. All that time she had thought she was hidden and safe during recovery... He somehow knew she was there. Maybe the other villains did too.
"Despite the fact that he didn't choose you as his successor. Did that upset you as a child? It must have. Poor thing, being under his roof and yet out of sight for all those years."
They got into the car. A police officer with a cat head was behind the wheel, his eyes were blank but his mind seemed friendly enough.
Kira buckled up and put her head in her hands. Denki rubbed her back.
"And now you're on your way back to UA... Let's hope the others get back as well."
Kira froze. What the hell did that even mean? "Let's hope" "The others" worry started to creep into her thoughts.
"All of the other groups are currently fighting my pawns throughout the city. A few happen to be quite powerful in their own right"
"Oh God..." Kira whispered, suddenly gripping Denki's hand. Who looked down at her, completely worried. He'd never seen Kira like this before.
He held her hand comfortingly. Sharing a worried expression with Ojirou.
"It must be devastating for the pro heroes... Having to send children into war zones because they simply can't handle the situation on their own anymore... How pathetic."
He Laughed. A slow chuckle that rattled in Kira's head. He sounded condescending and amused by her heroes. By Kira's friends.
"Is that really... The side you want to be on, Kira Kokoa? A side that lets kids fight their battles for them? Come now you of all people must see how twisted that is... How weak it means the heroes are now."
Kira kept her eyes closed. She hated the fact that he did have a point. It wasn't fair to have them doing anything. But she had to ignore him.
He was manipulating her. Using that small truth and trying to make her hate her own side. She refused to fall for it.
That's how he got people, he used little mind games. Like a master puppeteer. He manipulated everyone into thinking they were making their own decisions... The right decisions.
She was smarter than that. She could see through it... She had too.
She wouldn't let him beat her.
