Recap:

Dante tripped up in his speech a couple of times and he felt the others gazes on him.

‘What's the problem, I’ve had many more eyes on me when I fought villains? Bah, I’m just going to get some shut eye.’

So Dante closed his eyes and unknowingly in a warm embrace and tired from his previous days went to sleep.

He slipped in and out of consciousness, leading him to pick up certain sentences.

"Koichi your back, what did you give these kids for them to like you so much."

"Ah, heh. Well."

…..

"Koichi, go get me another cup of tea. Actually make those two."

"Thank you Koichi. And before I forget thanks for the notes."

…..

He started to wake up. He was in a darker part of the house but could vaguely hear. He focused and heard Koichi’s and his mothers voice.

"So mom, how long do you think you're gonna be here mom?"

"I’m making plans with Makoto to go sightseeing in Tokyo tomorrow actually."

"Find some time in your schedule to join us Koichi."

"Sure I’m free tomorrow, I’ll ask Kazuho if she wants to Join."

‘This isn’t real.’

Refusing to deal with the fact that he’ll have to converse even more tomorrow, Dante put his jacket that was next to him over his head and went back to sleep.

That was if it wasn’t for one small problem.

‘This stinks.’

"Is Dante awake."

‘F*ck.’

*Next Day*

*Sigh*

Dante was exhausted. All day they’ve been walking around Tokyo, taking pictures, and reveling in sights he didn’t find too impressive.

All while he couldn’t escape, Koichi’s Mo-Ms Haimawai, held his hand tight to make sure of that.

An attempt at ‘accidentally’ wandering off for a moment came with a quick slap on the head from a distance as well as a stern talking too.

‘What's worse is…this outfit.’

He was forced to wear some khaki shorts along with a shirt that was bright pink in color and said 

"This boy is with…"

With an arrow pointing to Ms.Haimawari who was wearing the other part of the set. The entire day basically lasted until his patience was wearing thin.

"Someone looks tired. "All right, Tay, we're about to board the bus."

And the stupid nickname she gave him enraged him to no end.Not that she didn’t ignore it whenever she brought it up. Or responded with,

"You're a child, and children should have cute nicknames."

‘I wish this day would end sooner.’

"Wow! All Might collaboration merchandise

*Smack*

"Don’t tell me you're still wasting money on garbage like that!"

Rubbing his neck Koichi said

 "Just window shopping…"

"Almost time to catch the bus."

Dante separated his hand and joined Makoto, who allowed him to drop the san, not that he didn’t accidentally do that already on many occasions and who moved faster than the others.

They started walking away from the vendors, and he turned around  to see Koichi slipping the clerk some money and stashing a hoodie inside his backpack.

‘A whole shrine of All Might merchandise will build up in his house if this keeps up.’

"This bus is fr Tahato Tours’ "Tokyo Hot Spots at a Glance" Half-Day Tour. Will be concluding the tour with a ride back to Tokyo station."

Getting on the bus Dante sits on the inner seat, with Koichi on the outside. 

‘Guess I’ll just sleep.’

"I won’t bother you with that daughter-in-law nonsense anymore. Instead, I wish I could just trade Koichi and have you take his place."

"And what would that make me, then?"

"A free agent?"

"Waved from the team."

‘Harsh’

Dante closed his eyes and thought.

*Somewhere nearby*

"That's the bus the boss wants us to test out. He’s lucky I got this rare specimen the other day. Oh well, let's see what kind of Havoc it will wreck."

In a coffee shop, an orange-haired short girl with an eyepatch over her right eye sipped tea.She watched the surveillance camera linked to her phone while talking to herself.

"Ok little ones, go on and obey my orders."

*Buzz*

Buzz

Dante was sleeping when he sensed something abnormal. He’s been using his sensing ability so often that sometimes he’s stopped needing t light a flame on his palm to focus in on small changes.

Is that a bird on top of the car?

Dante felt the blood of a living creature just sitting on top of them. He would dismiss it as a bird if it weren’t for the fact that they were traveling at speeds that even birds would have trouble with.

Not to mention that there wasn’t a thud expected from a bird.

Unknown to Dante, a cat was sitting atop the roof of the moving bus. This cat was special, however, since it possessed a quirk!

The ability to assimilate small objects and itself. It appears to be useless because its size and stamina have always been a hindrance to making it more powerful.But a certain organization discovered this cat and its potential.

*Buzz*

Just then, a bee flew over to the cat, holding an injecting needle that was thin and durable, but filled with liquid.

Trigger: A drug that comes in many forms and, at the cost of having the user lose their sanity, powers up their quirks. Essentially, it was a temporary quirk awakening.

Being stabbed and injected with this drug, the cat lost its reason and assimilated the exterior of the bus.

"Ah the wheel."

Taking control, it had the vehicle, or well, itself, speed up.

Dante inside the control room heard the shout from the driver and felt the change.

‘What.’

He looked above Koichi and saw a man hoovering with some liquid similar to whats he’s heard about this past month.

Using the distraction, Dante heated up his hands without portraying any flames. He caught the bee in his palm.

"Hm, are you ok?"

"Mhm." 

Nodding his head, Dante looked at the bug in his hand.

‘A bug.’

He crushed the bee while holding the drug in his hands. Shaking it he confirmed his suspicion.

‘This should be it. Trigger, they called it right.’
