TW: unintentional attempted suicide
I'LL MAKE IT MYSELF- a world without All Might.Why now? She held her head to calm the throbbing.
"H-How did you?"
"You know that I don't linger in pointless talk. You can't escape me forever," the voice from the call spoke. "Shimura Hisaki."
Immediately, she ended the call. "That crazy..." Calm down. "I need to go home."
"The door knob..." She looked at the empty space in the door and dust on the floor. No way. "Gran?" She entered the house and dropped her bags.

"I did say I was coming." The turquoise haired girl gives a lopsided grin.
"Come on! Everyone's already here!" The two enter the changing rooms and changed.
"Hisaki," Ochaco spoke up. "You're okay, right?"
The girl looks at Ochaco in surprise. "I'm dandy. Now, let's go to the pool." Hisaki heads out into the pool.
"Why are you lying..."
"You're here!" Momo gestures to the girls and they start stretching.
Will I have to run away again? I made friends this time, and they seem genuine. But I'll put them in dan-
