Traitor
A girl in a red waitress's vest swaggered into a room at the end of the ground floor corridor. Before even seeing the person inside, she laughed and cheered, "Uncle, I've come to meet you! Come out and greet me! I've encountered many enemies on my journey, but I'm following that lord, so I'll definitely take care of them in no time... Hey, Uncle, haven't you arrived yet?"
This room was just a small cargo hold, containing only some of the ship's last remaining cargo. Normally, no one would come here, and with the entire ship under lockdown, even less likely. Knowing this, my companion and Toga agreed to meet here.
Himiko Toga's companion's work ended when communication failed, so he should have arrived here much earlier to wait. However, when Toga arrived at the room, it was still empty.
Himiko Toga in surprise and muttered to herself, "Why isn't Uncle here yet? Was he captured by the Pro Hero on board, or did he go to the infirmary to treat his wounds? I can't wait to show him how clever I am."
While evading the pursuit of the Dark Shadow, Toga encountered Denki Kaminari and Minoru Mineta. Based on the information provided by the Kurogiri, Toga quickly learned that the two were members of U.A. High School Tomura Shigaraki hated. Knowing that Pro Hero would not abandon those in distress, Toga transformed into a crew member and, under the pretense that "Little Red Riding Hood" was sick, had the two Little Red Riding Hood her to the infirmary.
Of course, Toga didn't think the two of them could hold off so many Dark Shadow pursuers, but he still entrusted Little Red Riding Hood to them. The reason was simple: Toga knew that Jilan Jiyu were on this ship.
Jilan Jiyu was a name Shigaraki constantly mentioned, and his photo was often held by Shigaraki. When Jilan appeared on the ship, Toga immediately recognized this person who had left a deep impression on her, and she had been secretly watching the group at the casino. In Toga's eyes, Jilan and Kaminari were inseparable, so when she saw Kaminari, the idea of using Jilan and the others to escort Little Red Riding Hood to her destination immediately came to Toga.
If Jilan and his group successfully get Little Red Riding Hood to the infirmary for treatment, then Toga plans to use the excuse of being her older sister to naturally take over control of Little Red Riding Hood. If Jilan and his group fail to escort her, it will also reflect that Tomura Shigaraki's emphasis on Jilan is a joke. Even if he doesn't get Little Red Riding Hood Toga can use this news to mock Shigaraki and then use it to exchange for the opportunity to become a member of the League of Villains.
Toga's plan was shrewd. Regardless of whether Little Red Riding Hood was taken to the infirmary or whether Dark Shadow rescued Little Red Riding Hood, she wouldn't lose the opportunity to become a member of the League of Villains.
Unfortunately, what she didn't know was that Jilan wasn't with Kaminari and the others at all, and... it was still uncertain whether she could disembark safely.
"Hmm, I don't want to think about it anymore. Since Uncle isn't here, I'll go to the infirmary myself. Maybe Little Red Riding Hood and Uncle are there now." Himiko Toga shook his head, stretched, and turned to walk out of the cargo hold.
However, a cold, cylindrical object pressed against Himiko Toga's waist.
Is that a gun? Who's pointing it at me? Have we been spotted? Is the man alright...?
In those few seconds, several thoughts raced through Toga's mind. Just as she was about to turn her head, she heard a voice similar to her own say excitedly, "Don't move! My hand is very unsteady; I might pull the trigger at any moment!"
Toga's heart skipped a beat. The voice was so familiar, and a bad feeling crept into her heart...
"Alright, Toga, stop playing around and hurry up and get the news about Little Red Riding Hood from her." A somewhat impatient male voice spoke up.
"... Alright." Although Toga's voice sounded quite disappointed, she still complied with the man, giving Toga the back, causing him to fall onto the wooden crate. "Hey, did you hear that? Where's Little Red Riding Hood!"
Toga turned his head and saw another version of himself.
The girl opposite him was holding a cane, and it seemed she was using the tip of it to press against Toga's back, making him think it was a gun and preventing him from making any rash moves. However, even knowing that the other party did not have a gun, Toga was not at ease, because behind the girl, three or four burly men were lined up, blocking the exit of the room.
Looks like we've been caught in a trap...
After a brief silence, Toga gave a troubled smile, "Oh dear, I never expected my Clones to side with the Dark Shadow. I really didn't anticipate that."
"Hmph, there are many things you haven't thought of!" "Toga" snorted coldly, raising her chin arrogantly in the manner of a victor. The man behind her, as if given a command, silently dragged someone in from the doorway.
The man was bound hand and foot, his mouth gagged with duct tape, unable to make a sound. He was Toga's companion, Twice, whose Quirk was Double, possessing the ability to turn 1 into 2.
Twice saw Toga, and a light appeared in his dull eyes. His mouth, which was sealed shut, tried to say something, but he was immediately knocked unconscious by a guard who was annoyed and hit him hard on the neck.
"The old man was arrested too, huh? Well, that makes sense, after all, there's a traitor like him..." Toga muttered to himself, looking up at "Toga" with a mocking smile, "Selling out your true form just to save your own life? I don't remember being that kind of person."
"My true form?" "Toga" snorted again, "You're just a little girl, I don't acknowledge you as my true form!"
It was a strange sight: a blonde girl stood arrogantly in front of a girl who looked exactly like her. The two were like twins; apart from their expressions and clothes, their height and appearance were completely identical.
"You won't admit it? Do you want to turn the tables...?" Toga raised an eyebrow in surprise, then burst into laughter, "This is really interesting!"
"Toga" squatted down in front of the girl, poking her chest with his cane. "What's so funny? I have the same Quirk as you, and a more mature character than a little girl like you. Why can't I be the original form!?"
Twice's Quirk creates Copy with the same physical attributes and abilities as the original, and the Quirk can also be completely Copy. This Quirk is very strong, but one drawback is that the Copy created have independent personalities. Twice was almost killed by Clones he created before, and now, Toga may suffer the same fate.
Toga gave a fearless smile, "The reason is simple. You're like a balloon; you look full and bulging on the surface, but you're actually fragile enough to burst at the slightest touch."
The only difference between the Copy created Quirk Twice and the original is its durability. Although it possesses the same Quirk as the original, it will dissipate after taking a certain amount of damage.
"You needn't worry about that." An elderly man in a tuxedo and top hat calmly walked in, parting the guards standing at the door. "Even a balloon can remain stable for a long time if placed in a suitable environment. Moreover, we will find someone with the relevant Quirk to 'inflate' Miss Toga, allowing her to live forever."
"Are you a high-ranking member of Dark Shadow? You're the one who made my Clones betray me, aren't you? How despicable..."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Miss, but I have nothing to do with the Dark Shadow." The old man removed his top hat and bowed slightly. "If you insist on a word, it's merely a cooperative relationship. Moreover, you're mistaken about one thing, Miss. No one Toga to choose betrayal; it was she who made that choice."
