Eventually, after many close calls, I found a safe-ish place to hole up for the night. Or, the next few days depending on how good an actress Toga is. I already know Aizawa is somewhat suspicious. The only issue is whether he'll act on that suspicion or not, for fear that it is really me, and he doesn't want to hurt me.

I crouched behind the wall, using it to stay safe from creeps in the night.

I had been here well over 24 hours now. Fear was starting to set in; and the anxiety caused by stealing was no help, either.

All I could do was pray that he would realise. Or that I could get there in time to stop her.

----

Y/N was scaring me. Despite the fact that she was starting to act herself again, I felt pure dread and sick when I looked at her. Something was extremely off. I sat in the faculty lounge, a death grip on my coffee mug.

"Eraseeeer?" Mic waved a hand in front of my face.

"Oh? Sorry." I stopped zoning out and paid attention to him.

"As I was saying, L/N's been totally weird, yo. Won't even say hi to me anymore! Did something happen?" The blonde pouted.

"No." I said, still gripping the mug.

"Then... is she getting bad again? I know she had a few issues a while ago." He trailed off. He made me think back to worse times.

"No. I don't think that's it. Anyways, I need to get to my class. Bye, Hizashi." I waved to him, the man looking concerned still the whole time.

"I'll be taking your lesson today. We're heading to Gym Gamma, so grab your costumes and let's go." I waited for them all to get their cases, waiting by the door.

One thing I had noticed lately, Bakugo and Y/N were not talking. The pair were usually thick as thieves, which made this falling out odd.

"Oh, you made additions to your costu-"

"No. Fuck off." He growled, interrupting her and walking away. She then turned her attention to Midoriya instead, smiling creepily.

"Izuku..." She whispered, getting very close. He turned red and jumped back.

"What's up with that hood there?" She picked up the hood, admiring it, and dropped it back down again. The girl was uncomfortably close to Midoriya.

I did not like that one bit.

"L/N. Hurry up." I instructed her, avoiding eye contact.

"Alright." She was the last to leave class, and slapped my ass on the way out. Why was I so uncomfortable?

I walked a little bit behind the students, with Bakugo and Y/N almost walking side by side ahead.

Even though they weren't on speaking terms, Bakugo was asking her something. I couldn't quite tell what they were saying, but as soon as she answered, he stopped walking. Y/N turned back to him, only to be met with an explosion to her body. She went flying back, hitting the ground and clutching her chest. Bakugo got ready to use his quirk again, charging at her.

I ran towards them, restraining Bakugo with my scarf and erasing his quirk. The other students were protesting.

"BAKUGO! STOP." I pulled the binding cloths tightly.

"Not cool, bro, what the hell was that!" Kirishima asked.

"THAT'S NOT HER!!" He yelled, trying to break free of my restraints.
