Chapter 100: A Glimmer of Chaos

The door creaked open, and a blond girl, dressed in a toga, walked in with a spring in her step. Her bright smile faltered as she took in our bound and helpless forms. For a moment, our eyes met, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. I tried to look away, but my gaze was drawn back to her, and I could sense Bakugo's eyes on me, noticing my reaction. The girl's eyes sparkled with excitement as she took a step closer to us. Bakugo's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Wow, it seems we meet again!" His voice was laced with a mixture of surprise and wariness. The girl's face lit up with a radiant smile. "I've been looking for you, Bakugo-kun!" She bounced over to him, her eyes shining with enthusiasm. I watched, feeling a pang of unease, as she turned to Tomura Shigaraki, who had reappeared, watching the scene with interest. "Can I take that girl's blood?" she asked, her eyes fixed on me. "I think she would look cuter with a few... modifications." Her voice was laced with an unsettling sweetness, and I felt a chill run down my spine. Tomura raised an eyebrow, his expression thoughtful. "Ah, you want to make her one of your 'collections'?" he asked, his voice dripping with amusement. The girl nodded eagerly, her eyes never leaving mine. "Yes, please, boss! I promise I'll take good care of her." She bounced up and down, her toga fluttering with the movement. Bakugo's eyes flashed with anger, and he struggled against his restraints, but they only tightened, holding him fast. I watched, feeling a sense of dread, as Tomura steepled his fingers together, his eyes glinting with consideration. "I'm not sure, Himiko," he said, his voice low and thoughtful. "This girl might be more... useful to us in her current state." Himiko's face fell, but only for a moment. She smiled again, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Oh, I understand, boss. But I promise I'll make her look adorable, just like me!" She bounced over to me, her eyes shining with an unsettling light. I felt a surge of fear as she reached out to touch my face, her fingers cold and clammy. I tried to pull away, but I was bound too tightly, helpless to stop her. Bakugo's angry voice echoed through the room, "Don't touch her, you creep!" but it was too late. Himiko's fingers brushed against my skin, sending shivers down my spine.
