Chapter 67 - The Coming Disaster (1/2)
”Rampage, rampage, how I want to rampage.”
Covered from head to toe in blood, buŧŧ nȧkėd, and skipping through the Leage of Villains base on her way to the shower, Naruko was just as happy as she could be. She had gotten in one of the best rampages of her life, she had been allowed to fully succumb to her power and go full force on an entire city. The death count was in the literal thousands, though she didn't remember most of it other than short flashes of her bigger kills. She kind of remembered a couple of heroes trying to fight, and then her absolutely crushing them like the insects that they were.
”Ooooh, blood!” Himiko shouted as she rushed towards Naruko with an excited smile on her face.
A cute girl covered in blood? Sign her up for some of that!
”Which one are you again?” Naruko asked as she stopped with her face confused, not remembering most people. She remembered her brothers faces, they had the exact same damn face, her father, herself, and her genetic parents... though she didn't feel anything for those two dead people. Most other people just sort of escaped her mind, or were pushed to the side as unimportant, future victims of her Quirk. ”... Vampire Slut...” Naruko tilted her head to the right, trying to remember her.
She sort of did.
Himiko pouted.
”Call me Sister-in-Law, one day I'll marry Naruto, and we'll be family.” Himiko wanted to get along with her future family members.
”... Elder Brother... Brother, can I go and fight Elder Brother!?” Naruko ignored Himiko and shouted out loudly. She was sure that her brother was around somewhere, and was able to hear her.
'Annoying little cousin... she rampaged... Menma...' Tomura, scratching his neck, frowned when he realized that Menma was going behind his back again. The teenager had been doing this for years now, manipulating things behind the scenes. Yes, he was fully aware that what was happening, and it was useful to him most of the time, so he allowed it to happen. Well, All for One told him that he needed to allow it, since Menma was a planner by nature, able to manipulate those around him into doing exactly what he wanted them to do. '... It doesn't matter, so long as All Might dies, and society realizes his failures.' Tomura had a wide-spreading grin at that thought.
The League of Villains was growing.
Thanks to Stain making it more known that he was 'with' them, villains everywhere that identified with Stain were coming to them to join. They had a very fair amount of good villains with them now, not a huge number, but each villain was able to hold their own. Good villains, with capable Quirks able to get the job done, though most of their forces were out at the moment scouting.
Menma entered the room from the back.
'He's like Naruto, but with longer hair...' Himiko looked at Menma, and thought that like always, before she felt her hand want to go to her dagger. She gulped though, slight fear, when Menma turned his cold eyes to her and saw through her.
Menma didn't look at you... he saw through your very soul.
It freaked her out more than if he was seeing her nȧkėd.
”Himiko, Naruko, I have a mission for the two of you to take... together.” Menma stated coldly, taking the part of brains once more. ”St. Lavender Academy has gained a very interesting scientist... one who is researching the Monster Fox Quirk right now.” Menma's eyes narrowed in cold anger. How dare anyone think themselves allowed to just break into his powerful mother's grave, and steal her body? He didn't love her or anything, but to disrespect somebody so strong wasn't to be allowed.
He would not stand it.
”Ah, Naruto's Quirk!”
”Why should we care?” Tomura chimed in with a hiss to his voice, like he was speaking with sandpaper in his throat.
”Kushina Uzumaki, Quirk: Monster Fox, special Monster Fox ability, Illusion... Mito Uzumaki, Quirk: Monster Fox, special Monster Fox ability, Omniscience.” Menma pointed out with a scowl on his face. It was an ability that was far too great to be allowed to be so easily revived, not when it could be used by the good guys to get in the way of his plans. ”If the heroes gain that power to their side, then that is it for the league of villains. All our plans will be ended, and our location will be instantly known. Nothing we do will amount to anything, and our time as villains will be over.” Menma reminded everyone in the room what was at stake.
Tomura scowled deeper and scratched harder.
So annoying.
”Just makes it more fun, means I don't have to hide.” Naruko smiled wider.
”St. Lavender Academy is an all girls school, and you two are going to go there, find the man responsible, and secretely locate the corpses.” Menma gave them their mission, in plain and simple words. It was very important that they get those corpses and destroy them once and for all, so that their powerful secrets could never be used against them. Menma was actually nervous, since it didn't matter how smart he was, if his opponents knew every move he was going to make, then with their greater numbers and many great Quirks, the League of Villains was done for.
They were in a very dangerous situation for them, a first to be honest, and he didn't enjoy being put in this situation. Now when he was suppose to always be twenty steps ahead, and able to get his opponents to play the way he wanted them to. Being on defense, it was sickening that he was having to do such a thing.
”School... boring.” Himiko complained, nobody pointed out that she was a fake high school girl, who only wore school girl clothes.
Menma glared at her.
