Chapter 16 – Plan Ruined
Meanwhile, with the villain group, Shigaraki was fuming with rage after his plan was ruined by the invisible person. He entered his hideout and slammed the door shut as he paced around the room in fury.
"Who the fuck was that?!" He raged as he scratched his neck again. "That bastard! Whoever it is, I will kill them! He ruined my plan!"
The person who was inside, a bartender named Kurogiri, looked at him calmly.
"Calm down, Tomura Shigaraki." He said as he poured a glass of water for the young leader. "You have to stay calm or else we can't move forward with the plan. Remember what the teacher told us."
"Ghhh, you are right." He mumbled as he drank the water in one gulp. "Anyway, let's go over the plan again. With how secretive it was, we can assume All Might is indeed teaching in UA. But the question is... When will he be there?"
"Indeed." Kurogiri nodded as he crossed his arms in thought. "I have scouted the place a few times, but the security is too tight. We can't attack them in UA. I suggest we lure All Might somewhere else."
"Mmm, I guess so." Shigaraki stared at his glass as he tried to think of a way to defeat the number one Hero.
At that moment, the radio on the table beeped loudly, and a voice spoke through it.
"Don't worry about it, Shigaraki. Your chance will arrive."
The voice was deep and raspy as if it belonged to a dying old man. Shigaraki raised his head as he looked at the radio with an excited expression on his face.
"Teacher!" He cried out as he reached for the radio. "Tell me! What are we going to do?"
"My child, it's simple." The voice chuckled darkly as he continued, "All Might cannot protect every student at the same time. Soon, they will have to go out for their practical training. That is when we will strike. We will sneak into their line and attack them when they are not paying attention."
"Okay, so we need to plan their route or something like that?"
"Yes. Listen closely..."
Just before they managed to hear the plan, a knock could be heard.
"Hello~ Is this where you guys are hiding?"
A girl's voice came from outside the door. Her voice was high-pitched and sounded cheerful despite her being a villain.
Shigaraki frowned as he stood up and looked at the new person. He was ready to fight.
"Oh, that's the helper I found for you!" The teacher on the radio chuckled lightly as he spoke. "She has a lot of potential, so take care of her."
"Sure! Let her in!"
Kurogiri nodded at his leader and opened the door for the girl. A blonde girl with cat-like eyes entered the room with a grin on her face. She giggled and waved at them as she sat on one of the chairs in front of her.
"Yooo~ I am here~" She said cheerfully as she tilted her head cutely. "Name's Himiko Toga, nice to meet you. Let's kill those Heroes together. So, what's the plan?"

Arriving at the classroom, I was greeted by a few classmates who seemed worried about the press. Their expressions were a mixture of excitement and worry, with Tooru being the most excited among them.
"Did you see that?! There were so many cameras! Ahh, I wanted to be on TV so badly!" She squealed in joy as she jumped up and down.
Beside her, Yaoyorozu also looked excited. A smile graced her face.
"Well, it's an important event after all. With All Might teaching here, it's natural that many people would want to know more about him." She explained calmly. "I am curious as well. I heard he is going to teach our class today."
"I am so excited!"
Looking at them, I smiled softly and shook my head. I approached and greeted them.
"What are you talking about, girls?"
"Oh, it's Kuro! Hello!" Tooru waved at me happily. "Did you enjoy your date yesterday?"
"Date?" Yaoyorozu looked at me curiously as I sat down beside her. "You have a girlfriend?"
"Well..."
Before I could answer, loud footsteps rang from outside. Everyone's attention was on the door as it slid open, revealing a grinning All Might.
"I am here! Coming through the door like a normal person!" He announced with his deep voice as he entered the classroom.
The appearance of comic-worthy All Might sent the students into an uproar as they cheered and shouted at him. The energy in the room was higher than ever, making me smile with them.
After everyone calmed down, he introduced himself to us and revealed that he would be our teacher for Heroics classes.
"Everyone should be excited about this! The time has come! Hero training starts now!" He declared as he pointed at the door with his thumb. "Before we start our training, I have everyone change into their Hero Costume. Yes, your Hero Costumes! I have been waiting for you to wear these amazing outfits!"
Hearing him, everyone got excited again as they went to the changing room to change their clothes. I was excited as well.
Designing a costume was... not easy. Especially for me as I didn't need anything at all. My quirk allowed me to hide my presence from others, so I didn't need any clothes to enhance that ability.
So, I made a simple costume that made me look cool and fit my name.
Many suitcases appeared from the wall as All Might distributed them to us. Each suitcase was labeled with our names, and we took them excitedly.
I grabbed mine and opened it slowly. Inside were clothes made from a strange material that was flexible and durable. A black kimono with a dark purple pattern decorated the sleeves and legs of the outfit. The bottom part was loosened, making it easy for me to move around.
Along with it was a wooden sword that was made from a strange material. It was light but firm, perfect for me to use in combat. Unfortunately, they didn't allow me to have a bladed weapon, fearing that I would kill my opponent.
As for shoes, I had none. I preferred going barefoot as it was easier for me to move around without it.
"Okay, get changed and meet me in the training ground. Let's go!"
All of us were excited as we followed him to the training ground. When All Might exited the class, he glanced at Izuku and gave him a thumbs up.
'Can't they be more obvious?'
I shrugged my shoulders as I followed the boys to the changing room.
