Picking Leaders

                                    

                                          
Deku watched the computer screen. It's December 27th, two days after Christmas and currently, the leader's chat of the new website was active as every person wanting to be the leader of their own countries branch was answering the questions put out by Deku. They were simple questions at the start but they held deeper meanings to really assert the compatibility with Deku's thought of what a good leader should be.
                          
Then it switched quickly to hard questions.
                          
Then to super easy ones.
                          
It flipped on and off to see how well they can think on the fly and see if the change would cause the competitors to either over access a question or underestimate it.
                          
It was late, almost eleven at night, for his timezone that is, and the group was just finishing up. It might seem ridiculous to draw it on so long but if Deku was going to be the "Chief" of a world-wide "villain" organization he had to make sure that the branch leaders were fully able and could take his orders from afar without a problem.
                          
Deku leaned back in his wooden chair in the apartment and let out a long sigh. Bubblegum looked up from the kitchen where she was currently making them both a cup of coffee. That was another thing to think about. It was pretty apparent by now to everyone in the Quirkless Rejects that she was pregnant, pretty hard to hide that baby bump. Furthermore, four days, well almost three considering the time left until she and Doom both left the Quirkless Rejects for an extended amount of time. It was understandable but still a hard pill to swallow.
                          
To think, this coming new year it would be a whole year being together as the Quirkless Rejects, and this coming new year it will be the last time being with the original members.
                          
He shook his head as Bubble put the cup of coffee next to his cracked laptop. "How is it going, Deku?" she asked quietly. The greenette took a sip of coffee. "Pretty good. I think I've got who I want to be the leader for each branch. I was just about to announce it."
                          
"How?"
                          
"I'm gonna tell the chat that I'm kicking anyone in it that isn't a leader from the leader's subtab. Their screens will go to the opening page of the website while the people I chose to be a leader will stay and receive a notification saying their new title."
                          
The blonde nodded. "Well, I'm sure whoever you have chosen is the right pick." He smiled. "Thanks, Bubble. Have you gotten your bags packed?"
                          
She nodded. "Yes, even though we will only be moving a few stories up."
                          
"Yes, but if you want to raise your child "normally" this is for the best," the emerald-eyed teen stated. "None of us will stop you." "You will see us at the bakery, well you'll see Doom at least."
                          
He looked at her with a deadpan look. Bubble sweatdropped. "I- I mean, I'm sure Mikumo will tell you all about us and even let you talk with us during our breaks!" Deku rolled his eyes and faced the screen again.
                          
"Are you okay with us giving you a send-off at the warehouse?"
                          
She looked shocked.
                          
"Yeah... I assume you will put it on the main branch subtab as well?" Bubble questioned. Deku nodded. "Well, that's what it's there for, so every other branch knows what's happening in the main branch." "You won't put it in the events tab?" He shook his head.
                          
"No, that's for the other branches to post fun stuff happening in their branches and for us to announce when a big "raid", as the members have started calling them, is happening.
                          
Bubble nodded in understanding. She finished her coffee and stood up. "Well, I'm going to head off to bed." Deku nodded. "Night." Bubblegum took both their cups to the kitchen. She returned and placed a new cup from the leftovers of the pot next to Deku. "Goodnight, Deku."
