In a hideout far from Musutafu, the League of Villains gather around a table, flickering light above. Akako Mazoku twirls her long black hair around her index finger.

"Mazoku is taking a kids place in U.A. high. She'll be gathering information for us to use against them," Shigaraki says while scratching his neck raw. He has piercing red eyes showing his lack of sleep. His thin blue hair hangs over his eyes. His thin arm points towards Mazoku. "Bring back all the information you can gather. It's essential in taking down Izuku Midoriya and capturing Katsuki Bakugou."

"Don't tell me what to do. I want to kill Midoriya as much as everyone else does," Mazoku cockily says.

"You're so cool, Akako," Toga squeals.

"It's Mazoku to you."

"C'mon, Akako. Don't be like that," she whines.

"You can kill Midoriya if you shut up," Mazoku bargains. Her chair skids against the ground. "I need to go now."

Shigaraki stands up as well and pulls a thin card out of his pocket. "Here's your fake hero licence." Mazoku snatches it from his hands and strides out of the dim room. As she leaves the hideout, she studies the card. Her orange eyes are bright and her white skin contrasts with her black hair that falls over her shoulders. Her thin eyebrows are nearly invisible and muscles prominent.

She hides it in her crisp grey blazer and shrugs her shoulder bag up her shoulder. Black and purple fog forms into a circle in front of Mazoku. She mindlessly steps in and her surroundings change. She's in the bustling city, cars zooming past without a care in the world. She walks from the damp alleyway and to the nearest bus stop. She scans through the buses until the one she needs to catch stops in front of her. She steps in and walks to the back.

Mazoku looks out at the sea of students. She identifies the two students she's in need of studying in the seats.

"As you know, we have a new student replacing Mineta. She passed the entrance exam but we didn't have enough spots for her. Her names Akako Mazoku," the teacher, Aizawa-sensei or also known as EraserHead says.

"Hi, I'm Akako Mazoku. It's nice to meet you all. I hope we can become great friends," she says cheerily with a broad smile.

"Sit behind Midoriya." He points towards the green haired boy, smiling.

Mazoku's smile faulters and she nods before walking over to the empty seat. Midoriya gives her a small smile.
