You went into full panic mode. Hinata missing? No, no, no, that can't be true.
You walked in circles with a fast pace in the middle of the quiet hospital. Mina noticed your strange behaviour and walked up to you. She patted you on your shoulder, and asked if there was something wrong.

"My friend, Hinata," you started.

"Orange hair?"

"Mhm"

"What happened?"

"He... he went missing," you said, "What if it was the league who kidnapped him? You said it yourself that the league is harsh and all that! What if they do something to Sh-"

"We'll get him back, don't worry," Mina assured, "We won't let anything bad happen to him, okay?" You nodded, clearly still worried about the volleyball player. You walked away from Mina and called Oikawa to ask if everything is okay on his side, and so on with the other captains.

Thankfully, everything was okay on their sides. Hawks also said he would go on a search for Hinata later at night when it's darker. Iida would roam the streets too, to help out. You thanked them and hung up.

Three hours later, you, Alisa, and everyone else were already at your house. Alisa was resting and Akane was accompanying her.

Saeko and Yachi were chatting at the living room, and you were making up plans for your upcoming fashion event in your office. Then, you received an email from anonymous sender. You sighed, thinking it was another fan mail.

You loved receiving fan mails, but at a time like this, you were stressed out. With Hinata's disappearance and your fashion events, then there's also the fact that those powered villains know where you live.

You opened the mail, only to see a picture of Hinata. Tied and gagged. He had a couple of bruises and scratches on his face, and he clearly looks terrified.

We have your friend here, come to *********** tomorrow at exactly 18.30 if you want to see him again. Don't bring nor tell anyone about this, or your little friend will visit hell soon.

Was what the sender wrote. This can't be real, right? But you've finally got a clue on where Hinata is. But he has only be gone for a couple of hours, how did they even manage to do all that damage to him?!

You were scared for the volleyball player. Whoever did this, was clearly skilled, and you didn't know for sure if it was one of the powered villains, or just some low-lives kidnapping people for ransom. But why would they email me if it were for ransom? Me and Hinata barely hung out together in public, the voice in your head said.

And if it were the villains, then why would they email you? Out of all people? They asked you to come to them alone, and not for you to bring the heroes to them in return for Hinata, which will definitely make much more sense.

Nothing makes sense anymore. You massaged your forehead, thinking about what's happening. Just a few months ago, you were sipping coffee at a reunion with your high school beset friends, and now you were in this mess, with clearly dangerous people who can easily kill you in a snap.

Then, there was a knock on the door. "The door's open," you said in the driest manner.

"Hey Y/N," a female voice said, opening the door, "I brought you some tea, you seemed stressed out." You turned your gaze away from your computer, quickly closing the email. "Hey Momo," you said, "And thanks."

"Wanna talk?" the black haired girl asked. You shook your head, indicating a 'no'.

"I understand, I'm here if you ever need me, okay?"

"Mhm, I appreciate it." A few minutes later, Momo left your office. You thought about going to the address to help Hinata, but what if it was a trap?

What if they'd just ambush you?

What if they don't release Hinata and keep you both captive?

Thoughts ran around your head. It was too risky. But you also wanted to help Hinata. He's been one of your biggest supporters, aside from the Seijoh boys and Alisa, since you two met at the practice match between Aoba Johsai and Karasuno a few years ago.

You thought about it over and over again. Let me call Daichi, he's a police officer-- But they threatened to kill Hinata if I told or brought anyone...

You groaned. This was way too stressful. What do they even want from me? Money? That's the only reason they'd email me instead of everyone else, right?.

The next day

You were getting ready to meet whoever sent you that message. It was 16:30, and you told everyone in the house that you were going on for a drive. They didn't question you, so you were able to get out successfully without any suspicions. Although, both Kirishima and Momo thought it wouldn't be the best idea, but the rest convinced them that you'd be fine.

You started your metal-black zero sr/s motor and put on your helmet. At least, if they took you away, your abandoned motorcycle would give them a clue of where you're at. Or were at.

It only took you thirty minutes to reach the given address. It was quiet and empty. The only noises made were from your motor engine, and it was lowkey creepy. It was only 17:00, and you still had another one and a half hour before you meet your potential end.

You laid over on your steering wheel, turning off the engine, and taking off your helmet. They'll let Shoyo go, right? You sighed, taking the scrunchie you had on your wrist to tie your (hair colour) hair into a ponytail.

You looked around, seeing no one. It somehow creeped you but also relieves you at the same time. Suddenly, you felt someone cover your mouth with a piece of cloth aggressively, making you inhale some sort of chemical.

And slowly, gradually, you began to see stars and feel dizzy. Then, you couldn't see. You were unconscious.
