Chapter 18 - Other Side - The Greatest Showman

"Hands off." Todoroki growled.

"How would you even find that out?!"

"Maybe it's known in that universe?" Aoyama suggested.

"Oh, its not. But a little digging and everything comes apart." the shadow said.

"Are you suggesting that we don't know how to background search?"

"I'm saying you don't even bother to do so."

"What a burn." Spinner said, getting a look from the heroes.

"Rest assured... when we're back the first thing I'll do is pull apart at whatever traps he set for us." Nezu said reffering to Midoriya.

*Shigaraki let his hand slip through his hair one last time, pinkie always up, before moving to sit behind the bar.

He expertly prepared an easy drink, and slid the shot over to the boy, who stopped it with his hand.

-So trade that typical for something colorful
And if it's crazy, live a little crazy-

"Don't you want to experience something new? Something apart from your boring routine.*

"No he doesn't."

"Nope."

"Dream on."

"Can you really speak in his name?" Toga said. "Especially when this isn't your little lovely version." she said ironic.

*-You can play it sensible, a king of conventional-

"You can join and sit behind the stage-

-Or you can risk it all and see-

"-or, you can come with us on field. I can give you whatever you desire."

-Don't you wanna get away from the same old part you gotta play
'Cause I got what you need, so come with me and take the ride-

"Take a risk! It will be worth it." he said singsong matching the song playing in the background.

His arms were open, inviting Midoriya symbolically to join.

-It'll take you to the other side-

"You'll finally see how it is to be on the other side."

-'Cause you can do like you do
Or you can do like me
Stay in the cage, or you'll finally take the key-

"Are you ready to be free? Beacuse... you deserve it you know?"

"...How much do you know?"

"Enough to warrant an invitation in my team."

-Oh, damn, suddenly you're free to fly
It'll take you to the other side-

"Have I convinced you yet?" he asked cocky.

-Okay, my friend, you want to cut me in
Well, I hate to tell you, but it just won't happen-

"Hah, no." he responded matching his arrogance. He was always good at impersonating.

-So thanks, but no
I think I'm good to go
'Cause I quite enjoy the life you say I'm trapped in-

"You say I am trapped, but really it was my choice to join UA, you should know that from your little research. Who said I need to be freed from the place I chose to enroll? I'm pursuing my dream, and won't give it up to join your little boy band."

-Now I admire you, and that whole show you do
You're onto something, really it's something-

"Of course I admire the changes you want to make, your ideology, your ideas. You truly are talented."*
