Hidden Threats in the Forest.

{POV Ryuu.}

It seems they didn't hear my greeting, and we seem to be missing a few others as Blackmist said that there would be ten others.

Oh, it seems Togas is eager though.

"Stainy!!" Toga yelled out with joy and a look of excitement in her eyes as she charged at Stain.

No one moved when Toga charged at Stain as she started to ask Stain multiple questions while trying to stab him multiple times as he blocked each stab with his own knife. But Toga didn't seem to mind as she continued her assault with an even more eager attempt before she stopped, as she almost lost an eye.

"So, you must be Toga. Ryuu told me you wanted to meet me, or rather become me. I appreciate the gesture but." Stain smiled as he released an intense and heavy bloodlust that made even the newcomers take a step back.

"I'd rather not start this mission with bad blood."

Stain spun his knife before sheathing it as he grabbed something from his pocket then tossed it to Toga.

The look in Toga's eyes shined when she saw the dark red liquid in a small vial as she grabbed it out of the air.

"You're so cool!! Thank you Stainy," Toga hugged the vial of blood to her face with an excited and flushed manner. "Did you upgrade your attire, are those new blades at least they look nice. I totally hate my outfit, it's not cute at all." Toga put away the vial of blood as she showed off her outfit.

"Yeah, the blades are new," Stain smiled slightly as he shook his head then looked at Dabi. "Where are the others, they're late." Stain ignored the look of a frown on Toga's face as Dabi's upper lip formed a creepy smile.

"Quit tryna' act like the boss, and besides they'll be here shortly." Dabi spoke in a low voice as he walked towards the fire. The look in his eyes changed slightly as the smile on his face seemed to widen.

It went silent for a moment as everyone was keeping to themselves, well not exactly as the big guy under the black cloak seemed to be mumbling about either a very violent movie or a snuff film. Dabi wasn't wrong either as three more members of the ambush arrived shortly after.

One of them looked like a walking dragon while cosplaying as Stain. Casual wear for the other but it fit him perfectly, then I noticed him holding a staff or something. While one was apparently really into BDSM or… yeah.

When the one cosplaying Stain saw Stain his eyes went wide. I even heard Stain groan slightly when he saw… well Spinner with tears in his eyes as he rushed towards Stain.

The one in casual wear was nice enough to apologize for being late and introduced himself and the one who liked BDSM, as he said job under his breath.

Spinner was even going on about the divine word of Stain with a fantic expression. He even tried bowing but Stain stopped him with a tired look on his face.

"Stain you've become a cult leader," I chuckled as I received a glare from both Stain and Spinner. "Spinner could be your paladin, now we just need to find a cleric for the healing, a mage, a rogue, oh wait we're all here."

Stain had a confused look on his face before he started to laugh as Spinner did the same while still glaring at me. Toga even seemed to find it funny as I heard her laugh, then I felt something stab me in the side. She's just like Tsuyu no… there about even.

"I do like your one mask though, it matches your smile. And if you want to make the outfit cute I can ask Mei. She'd love to help." I smiled lightly as I saw Togas pull down her face mask with a large fanged smile.

Toga just continued to smile as she drew more of my blood. "That sounds awesome, I hope she'll be able to make it work with my ability. It's embarrassing to get naked when I use it." Toga's cheeks turned bright red as she looked up.

"Mei's the one you kissed at the sports festival isn't she?"

I nodded my head as I smiled but was interrupted by the big guy in the cloak as a deep and sadistic voice spoke up.

"Can all of you just the hell up, I don't care about any of that crap! Let me at 'em already, I'm so amped up that I'm about to kill the one who got stabbed since he seems to be the weakest!"

Everyone went silent as the big guy pointed towards me as his cloak started to wriggle and move.

"Well you can try but, I doubt you could. You'd seem more likely to be beaten by one of the students below, with that confidence you have. Hell, do you even know which target we're supposed to capture or are your thoughts of killing more important?" I spoke with a relaxed smile on my face with a wave of a hand.

"Know if you don't mind Toga and I were talking and you were rather rude, I mean Ancient even knew to introduce himself and he's well, ancient."

Toga giggled with a bright look while Stain put away a few throwing knives as he tried to calm Spinner down. Dabi just sighed as he finally looked away from the fire as a flash of blue flames sprouted from his hands.

"Are you saying that we'd lose to a bunch of kids who think they're heroes? I doubt that the only one who'd struggle would be the one in the gas mask. We're all more than capable of taking out a few kids." Dabi started to smile with a mocking look in his eye.

"And our target Bakugou, he'll be easy enough to capture when the other's arrive."

Toga started to frown as she glared at Dabi. The others started to nod their heads in agreement with Dabi. But the slight laughter from Stain made Dabi and the others who agreed with him frown.

"Really? Bakugou, that's the target. He'd cripple you if you tried," Stian started to smile as he pointed towards me. "Ryuu's been training the one you want to capture and Ryuu is a monster. What do you think the one he's trained is going to be like?"

Stain wasn't wrong as Bakugou was indeed a combat genius, if not a monster when it came to combat. Rather it be his brawling, ability, or battle instincts he always left me surprised as I always had to find a new way to counter him.

I mean hell I'm pretty sure he'd agree if I told him what's going on anyway. It would allow him to release some pent up rage.

"I think it would be a better idea to switch the target, but if you want to try then be my guest. Ancient, take the purple haired perv from class 1-B. Just remind me to bring you a shovel so you dig your own grave if you still decide to go after Bakugou though." I shrugged as I started to point towards the facility.

"Besides, it's getting late so I'm going to head back. Oh and before I forget here's the layout of the forest and facility."

I pulled out a notebook and tossed it over to Mange, as he seemed to be the more responsible villain out of the group as he caught it with a surprise look. I just waved it off as I told Toga I'd see her later. She even surprised me with a light hug with a bright smile.

Toga even offered to patch me up before I left with a slight look of embarrassment on her face. I said I was fine with a smile on my face as I even joked about getting her number then was surprised further when Togas face turned bright red before she pulled out her phone.

But when I saw the look of happiness on Toga's face after we exchanged numbers I couldn't help but hug her before I left with a flickering image.

It didn't take me long to get back to the facility before my phone was already buzzing like mad as Toga was blowing it up with multiple texts. I smiled when I read through them all, luckily a lot of them were repeat questions. But I made sure to reply to every one.

"So where were you, Emperor?"

I looked up from my phone to see Aizawa and Vlad King with serious looks on their faces.

"Out enjoying the forest, it's rather comforting. You both should both give it a try sometime," I smiled as I put my phone away. "I was also getting my dinner like I said earlier, I even spotted some deer. Oh and I'm going to betray everyone."

The looks on Aizawa and Vlad King turned fierce as they jumped back a couple meters.

Come on guys, the last one was a joke, lighten up. I mean sure I'm planning to help plan an ambush but still. I'm kinda still on your side.

I just sighed as I Flickr Stepped behind them and tapped their shoulders, while laughing. The look on Aizawa and Vlad King's faces paled before they quickly tried to attack with fear in their eyes.

"Got yeah, didn't I. Your faces were priceless. Come on it's getting late and we gotta be up early for training in the morning don't we guys." I said with a relaxed smile as I easily dodged their attacks as I started to head to the hot springs to relax.

Now I wonder how things will start to play out. Will they continue on with the original plan or will they change it. So many questions but, soon it'll be a really chaotic time.
