CHAPTER START---

His eyes glow bright white for a moment as he feels it work, and with his job done, he then immediately begins having a seizure on the floor.

Seeing this, the man doesn't react, he simply leans back against the cold steel of the armored truck and waits.

SCREEE!

The trucks' tyres grind against the road as its driver slams on the brakes.

"Hng!" The man is thrown out of his seat and onto the floor, but smiles. "The kid really pulled it off."

Getting off the floor he moves toward the door, hearing some chatter outside.

He presses his ear to the door and listens carefully.

"Hey what's going on, why'd you stop?" One man asks, likely the driver of the vehicle behind them.

He doesn't hear anyone respond.

The man then hears the locks on the door moving as someone opens it.

He quickly steps back as the doors open to see four men looking at him, all armed and armored officers.

One of which looked confused at what was going on.

They were stopped on a desolate mountain path, late and night, perfectly isolated.

"What the, why'd you---"

BANG!

One of his friends quickdraws their pistol and shoots him in the head, and nobody even reacts.

The doctor looks around, seeing all the men unresponsive, so he takes a moment to look around, skeptical that things would work this easily.

Walking to the side of the truck on this desolate mountain path, he sees the officers in the vehicle ahead of them also standing idle and unresponsive.

"Hmm," the man says to himself while fumbling through one of the officers pockets, "thought he was supposed to command them to do a dramatic finish..."

BANG!

He drops the phone as a gunshot goes off just beside him, falling to the floor he holds his chest, not expecting that.

Only calming down when he looks to the side, seeing one of the men had killed himself.Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

All around him the remaining officers did the same, until he was standing among a crowd of corpses.

Taking out the phone he dials a number, and after it rings once he hangs up.

"Ok that'll do it," he pockets the phone and gets back into the back of the truck, kneeling beside the dying boy.

He feels for a pulse, getting a faint response, then lowers his head to hear the boy still breathing.

"Are you done in there?" Shigaraki's tired voice asks the doctor, causing the man's head to snap to the left, seeing Shigaraki, Dabi, and Mr. Compress all looking at him.

"The boy, he's barely alive, but he can be saved," the man says as he eagerly approaches the villains, hopping out of the truck.

"Would be a waste to let him die like this, that Quick sure was useful," Dabi looks around at all the bodies.

"His body wasn't functional with his Quirk," Mr. Compress says. "The more he used it the more it destroyed him, at best he could be a Nomu now."

"Engineering that would take too much of our resources, assuming it's even possible," Shigaraki says. "Our mysterious benefactor says its not worth the hassle, so we'll be leaving him to die here, the news like to report on dead kids after all..."

Hearing this the man nervously glances between the villains, "and what about me?"

"You did well, so we'll be sending you to a remote lab where bodies are prepared to become Nomu," Shigaraki says with a sigh. "Honestly we're a bit understaffed when it comes to competent minds in that department, and out mysterious benefactor doesn't want to reveal himself so Twice can just make doubles of him to work more efficiently."

"A competent geneticist like yourself with a desire to study and create Nomu is invaluable," Mr. Compress says.

As they're speaking Dabi checks his phone, "the cops notice this convoy's GPS stopped, they're on the way here."

"Oh well," Shigaraki sighs. "We'll finish this talk back at base, let's get out of here."

As he says that a large Warp Gate manifests behind them, allowing the villains to enter, escaping with no issue.

But before the doctor enters Shigaraki stops him, "the phone you used to signal us..."

"Oh, right," the man takes the phone out of his pocket and hands it to Shigaraki, who immediately disintegrates it.

"Now we can---" Shigaraki stops, looking past the man at Dabi, who was inspecting one of the bodies. "What are you doing?"

"Says the guy with Brainwashing," Sero says.

"Yeah but I can't make people do anything that they know would get them hurt, can't even make them walk off a roof much less shoot themselves in the head."

"Not yet," Horizon says. "But with enough training you'll get there eventually, hopefully. But his Quick was more like he'd give a hypnotic command that can be activated later, making people into sleeper agents. The Trigger just amped it a lot, but that Quirk also killed him so you know...more power, more drawbacks."

"Unless you're you," Juzo says. "All the power, no drawbacks, right?"

"That's one way to look at it, but with me the power is the drawback."

"I thought the fishbowl on your head was the drawback?" Sero asks, and both the other boys start laughing as Horizon just sighs.

"I need a snack," Horizon gets up and walks over to the kitchen, still in view of everyone on the couches.

"Can you get me some chips! Thanks!" Juzo says.

As the news finishes Sero checks his phone, and a wide grin appears on his face. "Good news, Yui is in Tokyo tomorrow...well, in Chiba."

"Why the hell is she in Chiba?" Shinso asks.

"Something about a villain they're looking for being part of a group in Chiba, honestly I wasn't really listening."

"What a great boyfriend you are," Juzo says.

"What does she even sound like?" Horizon asks as he returns with a back of peanuts, and hands Juzo a bag of potato chips.

"Like a gentle maiden, what else would she sound like?"

"Huh, figured her voice would be annoying and squeaky," Horizon says.

"I assumed the same thing," Juzo adds.

"I thought she was a mute," Shinso confesses.

"She can talk, she's just really shy, that's all."

"It's a bit weird," Horizon says, earning nods from the other two boys.

"Whatever," Sero grumbles.

"So what, you gonna see her in Chiba tomorrow?" Shinso asks.

"Actually, this group they're going after sounds pretty tough, so I figured we could go over and lend them some muscle."

Shinso, Juzo, and Horizon look at each other for a moment, then speak in unison.

"Pass."

"C'mon guys, if it's just me the Pros running it will probably turn me down, but if Team Horizon shows up to help..."

"I have a lot of work to do," Horizon says.

"I'm resting after dealing with that giant robot," Juzo says.

"I um... I'll be busy thinking of an excuse," Shinso says.

"C'mon!" Sero pleas, "it won't even take long with all of us there, then we'll have a day in Tokyo with the girls."

This gets their attention, "what girls?" Juzo asks.

"Well you'll be happy to know that Majestic is part of this little team up, which means Setsuna will be there," Sero looks at Horizon. "And Momo, perfect timing too since Ryuko is visiting her team this weekend..."

"I have enough time with her at UA," Horizon says.

"Yeah and I just think Setsuna's hot, it's not that serious to have a day in Tokyo with her."

"All the Hero Course girls are attractive," Shinso shrugs. "It's not that special."

"And it doesn't mean we need to get dragged into a team up with some annoying Pro Heroes just because you want to show off for your girlfriend," Horizon says.

"C'mon guys, their mentors already promised that when the raid is over they'd get some time in Tokyo, this is a golden opportunity, please help me out here!"

They all look at each other for a moment, then Horizon speaks.

"Sigh, fine, but I'm gonna complain the entire time, and I'm obviously not running around Tokyo shopping with you people."

"YES!" Sero cheers. "Thanks, you guys are the best."

"Hey quick question," Shiso says. "Since I'm the only one here without a desire to be around these girls...can I just sleep in tomorrow while you guys---"

"No, it's a team exercise," Horizon says. "And if I have to suffer through this, so do you.."
