Outside of the academy, two figures stand at the entrance. They seemed to be waiting for someone, although they hadn't come out yet.

One was a reaper, wearing a pitch black robe over his head, and though he didn't have a scythe there were cold hands around his arms, seemingly belonging to dead people. His skin was ashy and dry, hair a pale blue. The creature next to him was a purple figure with piercing gold eyes, though this time he looked much more humanoid; wearing a suit and dress shoes as if he were a human. The top of his head still swaying in the cold wind like fire.

"Are you sure she's still here?" the reaper asked, somewhat worried.

"Why certainly." he turned back to face the building. "The only issue remaining is if she completed the task we set for her."

The boy groaned and began to scratch his neck like an animal. "We're going to get caught, you know that someone will see us-"

"Patience, Shigaraki." the figure grabbed his hand and stared at the boy. "You know they won't take her there just yet, so it's only a matter of time before she returns."

He was about to respond when footsteps could be heard from behind the door-

The reaper was shoved into the bushes as the purple figure, Kurogiri, seemed to dissipate, and he barely had enough time to keep his fingertips from touching any of the leaves.

The door to the school opened, and out came Mitsuki, tripping over her own feet and falling onto the cold ground below as smoke surrounded her.

As the gas cleared, the two stepped closer. The woman's taliland ears were gone, and she was back to normal. Though she didn't have what they needed.

"I see you've yet to complete your mission, haven't you?" Kurogiri scoffed.

"L-Look," she started to get up. "I didn't have it easy in there, dumbass. The kids were all awake and the teachers came out of nowhere-"

"So you're saying that you couldn't have just attacked them?" Tomura snapped.

"My ward is correct. You could have simply harmed at least...one of them, and we may have been better off, don't you think."

She looked off in disgust, almost regret as she spoke. "I did attack one of them..it was my son."

"And you couldn't do the same to the others? Or are you just used to doing that to him?" the blue-haired boy asked. At this point she wanted to bite him, just as hard as she bit Katsuki. But she knew she couldn't do anything, and so did Shigaraki.

One wrong move...and she'd be dead by his fingertips.

And he knew this, it's happened before. Then woman was actually scared of him for what he did to his parents.

The blonde shook off the constant wave of fear she felt around him and changed the topic. "You got a better plan, jackass?"

The boy was quiet, looking down so his hood drew a shadow over his face. He began to scratch the dry skin on his neck and snicker. Looking up towards Mitsuki as his mouth curved up to form an evil smile, he spoke. "I guess I do have...another plan."

"Okay freak, what-"

"But, you won't be a part of it."

"What?!" the woman felt betrayed, and turned to Kurogiri. "I'm one of your strongest links, you can't just- mmph!"

The purple figure brought his 'hand' up and covered her mouth, staring at her menacingly. His eyes, though blank, were etched in intimidation. "You are one of them, yes." the magic extended and started to clasp tightly around her neck. "But seeing how well you took this..you won't be needed."

Her legs felt weak as she stared at him, face turning blue. He laughed it off, and let go as she fell to the ground coughing.

"At least not for the time being." he finished, creating a portal behind him and the reaper as the latter stepped in. Kurogiri took one final look at her on the ground, and went through the portal as well, the gate closing behind them.
