Monoma trying to use the villain’s quirk was like repeatedly failing to strike a match.
“What’s wrong, hero? Having trouble with Twicey’s quirk?” The insane girl squealed, slashing at Monoma. One of his stopwatches flies off his belt, the chain snapping and falling to the ground.
His quirk was not ideal in these two very specific scenarios. He didn’t have any measurements or enough knowledge about his body for Twice’s, and no blood for Toga’s. With no backup to be spoken of, the three blondes were stuck in a stalemate.
At least, with his impeccable dodging skills that none of those class 1-A tryhards could ever beat. Other than Hagakure, Ojiro, Iida, Bakugo…
Slash! Monoma felt blood spurt out of his cheek. He raises his hand up and touches it. It bled onto his shirt. A real villain experience. He was now on the same level as those Class 1-A’s brats!
“Toga! Go easy on him, Shiggy wants him alive!” Twice squeals. Monoma could tell he was smiling. What a sadist. He made it over to Toga, hopefully to help him.
Toga was too busy slash, slash, slashing, to notice Twice jumping in her way, and cut his mask open.
Monoma gasped. The familiar blonde hair was very familiar. The brief eye contact with the man’s wide gray-blue eyes looked almost just like his lost cousin that his mom had told him ‘died in a villain attack.’
Everything stopped. He stopped, Toga stopped, and Twice stopped (as soon as he fell on the ground.). Monoma thought back to the files he had snagged from Ectoplasm, his other cousin, in his office. Ectoplasm seemed so distressed that he didn’t even notice it. So many circles and-
“Jin Bubaigawara! You’re my actual cousin!” Monoma yelled, pointing at the floor man. The dusty warehouse he had been jumped in must’ve been doing wonders for Jin’s immune system. “We thought you were dead! You’re supposed to be dead!”
“Ouch. That doesn’t help my existential crisis.” Twice says, standing back up and rubbing his head. The only unfamiliar part about his newly revealed cousin was the long, railroad scar on his forehead.
“Wait- How did i get here?” Monoma suddenly asks, looking around. The warehouse seemed like a mix of the UA dorms and the Licensing Exam. “Why was I wandering into here?”
“..uh.. Because..” Toga stammered, twirling a knife on her finger. “Because we thought your quirk was villain-like!”
“No, but why am I here?” Monoma said, looking at Twice. Twice casually did the rock face and said:
“Because you, my cousin, are tripping balls. ”
And then the floor collapsed beneath them.
He woke up in a cold sweat.
He grabs his clock and sees it at 4:30 AM. Wow. That was all a crazy nightmare. There’s no way him and Ectoplasm were related to one of the most wanted people in Japan.
Right?
