## Manhattan Mayhem

The news has been **blowing** up lately, due to the new sudden rise of villains in New York. It seemed like a lot of society’s shunned and outcasts had finally had enough of the oppression they’ve been facing from quirk discrimination. “Breaking news today, we’ve been witnessing a lot of recent spikes in crime lately, the newest story we have today is about the pyromaniac, who goes by the name of Zatayy. Multiple buildings and important landmarks have been blown up by him even though the security where on guard, he was somehow sneaky enough to get through and cause a havoc, fleeing scenes before people, notice.” The female news reporter continues to mumble on.

We then see the TV that the channel was being played on. With infamous villain Toby, and other of his affiliates seated on a couch observing the news shown to them by the perpetrator of it all, standing with the remote control in his hand. “Are you impressed with my resume, Toby?” Zatayy says in a cold manner then laughs uncontrollably, before stopping, showing his two flippant personality sides.

Toby sat at the couch, staring at the tv with an unimpressed look. It wasn't unimpressive by itself, managing to destroy landmarks and buildings alike. It was the fact that Zatayy was showing off his strength of his quirk. Quirks weren't given out equally, some quirks had the power which his had. Finishing the news report Zatayy asked Toby what he thought. Rising to his feet a cold stare struck Zatayy. "Impressed? Why would I be impressed by childsplay? Your quirk was meant to destroy, you simply followed the nature of it." Sitting back down he grew a relaxed look, his eyes seemingly returning to normal. "I don't care what you're capable of. I care about how you use it. These Pro Heroes use their quirks for others.." A sadistic grinn grew on his lips whilst his eyes grew a wild and crazed look, "Why the fuck would someone use their quirk for someone else? Some people hide their quirks out of fear of being ostracized by others, why the fuck wouldn't you use it? You were born with it, so fucking use it."

Rising to his feet again he extended his hand to Zatayy, "You're someone who uses their quirk for their own good. Burn those who don't use their quirks for themselves. Let them feel **despair** as they wait for their hope, their heroes.. to arrive."

Zatayy smiled back at Toby with his hands in his pockets, as a green flame appears on his right eye as his quirk activates randomly. “Hehe. You’re a maniac huh?” He said jokingly as he puts on a more laid expression with his hand on his neck, “I like your beliefs though, although mine differ, I think it’s good enough we share the same common goal. Of eradicating the false hope of heroes.” Zatayy continued on before pausing. “On one note though how much freedom will you give me if I join sides with you?” He adds on.

Toby's eyes narrowed down as a vein popped in his forehead. He gave a speech on how he believes that everyone should use their quirks for themselves instead of others, which is exactly what freedom means. Yet Zatayy asked him how much freedom he'd have. Despite the visible annoyance he responded, "You think I'd limit your movement? Limit your quirk usage? I explained a mere moment ago how you should use your quirk as much as you'd want."

Zatayy facepalmed at Toby’s response and crossed his arms. “Nah Nah, I ain’t talking about the freedom of my quirk usage, but if I join this organization how much power will you give me? will you restrict me with dumb morals and rules like those other bitches even some other villains that think their purpose is for the righter good?” He then pauses and lights up a cigarette, “I hate that shit. That’s for bozos only.” He coughed as he talked, whiffing the smoke then pushing it away.

"Power within despair? Heh, you make me laugh. There is one power within the organization, it's me. Everything rest is up to each person. I couldn't care less if you took 30 men from me to form a suicide pact." Opening his palm a blue hue swirled around it, dancing on top of his palm. "I got the power to achieve my goals." The hue blew away like dust in the wind, "Rules, morals? None. I couldn't care less what you do under the name of despair. Well.. Helping people who can't stand up for themselves is a thing I'm against. I see you doing it and I'll personally end you." His voice carried a sharp tone to it, his eyes filled with killing intent.

”Aite man, I think we’ve come to agreement and we gucci then.” Zatayy said scratching his hair. “I’m gonna head out for now, got anything you want me to do boss?” He said showing that he has some level of respect for Toby now.

"There is in fact something you can do for me. There's a hero called Mechanic Hero who tends to watch over nearby areas to here. He's someone who uses his quirks for others, others who don't dare to do anything themselves. Bring me his head to show people that heroes aren't anything but a false sense of security."

Sam onlooked to Toby as he was giving out his request. "Gotcha, I'm fine with working towards the same common goal with you buddy." He devilishly smiled to Toby as he shut the door.
