Weekend came and Nekta was in the League's lair, walking along the hallway when she came through Shigaraki's room. She'd never talked to him since he gave her the mission which was a week ago. Heck! She didn't even saw him after that.

"Nekta!" She turned to the voice and saw a blond girl around her age smirking at her.

"Toga," she said and faced the extra too cheerful girl. Their personality never really clicked but she have to thank her for standing in her place as Syren when she was busy in tormenting Midoriya.

"I see you're back from your work. How's pretending to be a hero-in-training?" she said, leaning towards her.

"Try standing in my place as Nekta Ramirez the second-year Hero Course newbie sweetheart and you'll see," Nekta said and walked away to her own room, "Maybe you'll even do a lot better with smiling than me."

"Oh? So even though you didn't faked your name, you faked your personality?" Toga asked, still following her, "Well, you are a good actress."

Nekta stopped and glared at the younger girl who slightly cringed under her gaze.

"Oops! Did I say something wrong?" She teased and Nekta growled and left her there. That girl does sometimes get into her nerves. More often than you might think.

Weekend isn't doing much for Midoriya. The emphatic parasite, as what Syren call, is giving him migraines from time-to-time and he can't really focus on whatever he is doing.

That's not just what is bothering him but these voices in his head that keeps on repeating inside him.

You are not a hero. You're not going to be a hero. A quirkless luck magnet can never be considered a hero.

That's just one of the things the voice was telling him. He knows these are just the emphatic parasites but he can't help but have these phrases get to him. Like he is purposely letting them get to him.

"I am going to be a hero. The greatest hero," he kept repeating this to counter the doubts that starts flooding him, but even these are no good.

What is happening to him?

"Deku?" He snapped out of his trance when he heard Uraraka's voice from his phone and remembered that he is currently having a conversation with her through the phone.

"Uh...yes, U-Uraraka-chan?" He stuttered and sat up straight in his seat. He was too occupied that he totally forgot that she called him.

"Are you sure you're alright?" She asked obviously worried. This made him blush and smile awkwardly.

"Ah, y-y-yeah. I'm fine! Just lack sleep," he'd used that excuse countless times already. And she keeps on buying it every time.

"Hmmm, okay. But don't forget about Monday's homework. We should pass that at the same time," she said and Midoriya turned to his desk to see papers and pens.

"Yes, Uraraka-chan."

"Okay, see you then, Deku," she said and hold up. He put his phone down and turned back to his desk. Hero study also became a lot harder after Syren did that to him.

'Could it be that...the emphatic parasite is...' He stopped when he felt a throb behind his head. He grabbed some of his hair and clutched it until he felt like they're going to be ripped off his head.

No, he can't let Syren get her way. He need to do something about this or else, he'll lose his sense of justice and sanity.

"What do I need those for?" He said out of nowhere before gasping and clutched his mouth in horror. For a second there, he kind of lost his sanity. Could this be the work of the emphatic parasite?

Just then, his vision turned black and he lost consciousness.

Bakugo were out of his house after his mom told him to do some errands. Just as he was walking along the sidewalks, he noticed something move inside an alleyway.

He stopped and turned to the say alley, clutching the plastic bag he was holding. He glared into the darkness of the narrow pathway between two huge buildings.

Then, something moved again and a screeching scream was heard. His eyes widened same as the people around him. This is a public place after all.

They heard hurried footsteps and after a few moments a man stumbled out of the darkness with blood on his clothes and face. He looked horrified and grabbed onto Bakugo who is the closest person he could get.

"Help me! Someone. Someone please help me!" Another scream was heard from the alley as the man shakes in fear, "Run! She's coming! And she'll kill us all!"

"What the f*ck!" Bakugo exclaimed and turned back to the alley. He pushed the man away from him and dropped the plastic bag on the ground to run into the alleyway, ignoring the people's warning.

He ran and ran until he finally saw what caused the man to be scared as sh*t. A girl in a white outfit and white face mask is clutching another man's throat with her gloves right hand as her other hand hold onto a blade.

"What the f*ck..." He glared and his palm generated small explosions which caught the girl's attention.

"Huh? What are you doing here?" She asked in a familiar voice but he just can't put his finger on where he'd heard it.

And also the way she said it is like she knows him. But...who is she?

"Tch, put the guy down!" He screamed and made a small explosion in his palms as a small warning.

"Urgh! You hero-eggs should really need to shut up," she said and threw the man on the floor. Bakugo noticed that the man is not breathing and he glared at the girl.

"Tch, and you villains should really learn when to f*ck yourselves!" He yelled and attacked him with his quirk, but she jumped away to the wall and used her feet to push herself off the wall and lounged towards Bakugo.

He barely dodged because of this girl's reflexes and got shot away into a wall.

"A few emphatic parasites might do you some good, Bakugo," she said and Bakugo growled, wiping the blood off his mouth. This girl is fast and strong.

"I finally remembered you," he noticed that the girl stiffened and glared at him, "you're that Syren person, aren't you?"

"Very good memory," she said and draws out three blades, "But that wouldn't help you right now."

"Stop what you are doing, Syren!" A few pro heroes yelled and the Syren clicked her tongue and turned to them.

"Oh holy sh*t!" Bakugo found his chance to get a solid attack on her and she came stumbling away to the other side of the alley.

"I'm your opponent, damn i--" he was cut off when something came dashing down the wall and punched him on the face.

He was too dumbfounded to react and stumbled away the same as Syren. The pro heroes also stopped and was surprised by a new arrival.

"Now that's a way for a grand entrance," Syren said and stood up as she look at the newcomer. It was a guy with a black hoodie jacket, gloves and black pants. He also have a mouth gear that somewhat adds to his mysterious demeanor.

"Hey, kid. What are you doing here?" On pro hero asked Bakugo but he rudely growled like a feral dog and glared at Syren and the new guy.

"Oi! Who the f*ck are you?" The pro hero who asked Bakugo flinched but gets the hint that he is totally shutting him out and is solely focus on the two people in front of them.

"Sorry, boys, but this is all we have to give you today," Syren said in a monotone voice and she shot towards them, specifically Bakugo and something surprised Bakugo than anything in the world.

A sudden kiss on the lips through a piece of cloth given by Syren to him. She then pulled away and looked into Bakygo's eyes for a brief moment and shot back away in immense speed. She grabbed the newcomer's wrist and disappears in an instance.

"What the f*ck..."
