Chapter 36 - Why?

"Hello, Brother." 

As soon as she said this, the purple fog stood behind her, never leaving. 

Shinji took a moment to answer, "Hello, Miki." 

Silence, Miki was looking at her brother as if asking for an explanation. 

"Sigh, I'm sorry, Miki, the world doesn't wait." 

"What is that supposed to mean? Do you even know?" She was starting to become a little mad. 

"You will understand once I reach the top."

"Last time you didn't tell me what your plans are; will you tell them to me now?" She asked.

Shinji frowned. "I will not tell my plans to anyone. First of all, why were you released?" The suspicion in his voice couldn't be hidden. 

Miki looked offended. "Why are you doubting me? They just let me go, and that's it."

'Suspicious, there's no way they would let her go with no reason; it's better if I stay away from her for now,' he thought.

Aurora looked uncomfortable with the atmosphere. 

Miki saw the girl and made gestures with her hand for her to get close. 

She started walking forward, but Shinji stopped her. 

"Don't get close; Miki's acting strange."

Aurora looked conflicted but at the end decided to obey her "brother."

"So you're not getting close huh… I guess I have no choice." 

Shinji activated his quirk and prepared himself for anything that could happen. 

"Shinji, do you know what my quirk is?" She questioned.

His eyes immediately opened wide. 'I almost forgot, I never knew what her quirk was.' 

Aurora looked a little confused. 

"I can create these parasites that, once they infiltrate someone's body, reach the brain and control the emotions and actions of a person." She started laughing in a low voice. 

Multiple tiny parasites appeared on her body. "Do you know what that means?"

Shinji took a moment to catch the real meaning behind all of this. 

Once he realized what she was talking about, an enraged expression appeared on his face. 

His quirk besides him noticed this and started getting restless. 

"So it was you all along," Shinji said, trying hard to control his anger. 

"That's right, I infected your parents with this parasite. I'm not even your real sister; I killed her long ago." 

Shinji held back his urge to kill this girl. It was important information she was handing out, and he wasn't about to let his anger keep him away from the answers. 

Aurora, as usual, held his hand to calm him down; it helped a little. 

"Who was my sister? Why can't I remember?" He asked.

"Your sister was a little older than you; she was a cute kid, very curious about the world. Unfortunately, her presence bothered my plans, so I killed her."

It was too much for him to handle; his heartbeat accelerated even further. 

The thing that drove him over the edge was when he heard, "I killed your mom after you left. Funny thing is that your parents were good ones; I just told them to abuse you because I was bored." 

"WHY!!" He screamed. 

Miki put a finger on her lip while she looked at the sky. "I already told you, didn't I? Do I have to explain it more clearly? You were always just…" She then started laughing loudly. 

This was it. Shinji charged towards this girl, but before he reached her location, she was teleported away. 

"Damn it!" Shinji fell to his knees and looked at the dark sky. 

"Why?…" There was no answer. 

His whole life had been a lie, his anger was insatiable, and he had to kill her. 

Aurora walked to his side with caution; she placed her hand on Shinji's shoulder. 

He lightly pushed her away before quickly saying, "Sorry, I know that it's not your fault; I'm just mad." 

His parents were good people. She had controlled them mentally. 

"I guess this explains why she was never there for me. She just never cared." 

Aurora helped Shinji stand up from the ground. 

"I promise that no matter what happens I will kill her."

That Same Night

All Might was in a meeting with multiple heroes; they were sitting in a circle and talking about the next plan of action. 

"I found the villain; he was with a little girl. Apparently he was about to kill her."

The air in the room thickened. 

"That's not all; his quirk is powerful. He can turn himself into a monster never seen before or manifest it from inside his body and command him to do his bidding."

There was a silence until All Might continued, "His strength was a little below mine, but his speed is somewhat greater."

This statement surprised the present heroes. 

"Well, this is a problem. What do you suggest, All Might?" Principal Nezu asked. 

"His quirk has a problem. It's inefficient against multiple people. We just have to gather the strongest heroes together, and he won't stand a chance."

"Got it."

At The Same Time This Meeting Was Taking Place

Kurogiri left Miki in the bar; she took a seat and started drinking some alcoholic drinks. 

"How was it? Miki," the voice coming out of the TV asked. 

"It was great; he will definitely come to us." 

She paused and took a sip from her drink. 

"Then we'll destroy him."
