(Your POV)

"Here's your phone back," Kirishima says, handing me my phone. He said he would contact Deku, but I don't understand why he used my phone. I don't even have his number. Even so, I don't question him about it.

Once we convince Deku and Shoto to help us, I plan to contact Katsuki so I can speak with him personally. I have a lot to say, and it wouldn't feel right if I just talked to him over the phone.

Finding out my husband is in Japan caught me off guard, though I can't say I'm surprised. Once he got my letter, Katsuki probably jumped on the first flight he could to get here. I wonder who he hired to watch Hiro and Aiko.

...

He brought them with him, didn't he?

(Hiro POV)

Do they think we're stupid?

The mouse-bear creature named Nezu has been taking care of Aiko and me while Dad has been out. The heroes keep telling us that he's helping Mom, thinking we'd believe it.

They keep treating us like we're two. We are, in fact, four years old. We'll be getting our quirks soon.

Mom has always said that we're mature for age, and smart too.

Mom and Dad still argue about who we got it from.

Now, Aiko and I are in our room. It's a spare dorm in one of the UA dorm buildings. It's small and we have to share a bed, but it's good enough. There's a pro hero named Cementoss in the room across the hall that we can go to if we need anything.

I look at the clock on the side table.

'12:00'

It's the middle of the night, but I can't sleep. I don't feel tired at all. Instead, I'm looking at the stars through the window, naming the constellations Mom taught me about.

Shuffling beside me tells me that Aiko is waking up too. She always needs to use the bathroom at midnight, and she always wakes me up at that time too.

"Hi Aiko," I say, still looking at the stars.

"Hiro, let's go find Mom and Dad."

Now I look at my sister, but I'm not surprised. I was thinking about it too. We both want to make sure that they're ok, and we really miss them. We haven't been away from them for this long before.

"How do we find them?" I ask.

"We just go look and follow our... um... intotition?" Aiko says. I nod.

"Intuition," I correct her. I get up and change out of my sleep clothes and Aiko goes to use the bathroom. Once she gets back, she changes too. We grab our backpacks and open the window.

"Can we jump that far?" I ask, a little scared.

"Of course, let's go,"

Aiko grabs my hand and jumps, pulling me too. We land on the ground; Aiko on her feet and me on my butt. It doesn't hurt a lot and Aiko doesn't let me get up on my own. My sister pulls me up and we start running.

We get to the forest when I hear talking. I pull Aiko into a bush and we hide.

Mom taught us a lot about hiding. She makes us practice all the time so that we can be safe if anything bad happens, like a bad guy coming to our house. Sis and I know not to move and to breathe really quietly. Oh, and no talking or laughing.

Two heroes pass by, but I don't know their names. After they leave, Aiko and I run again. When we reach the front gate, we stop.

"How do we get over the wall?" Aiko asks. I shrug and look around. Then I look at the gate. I don't think we can climb the wall, maybe we can climb a tree and jump. I tell Aiko but she doesn't think it will work, because the trees are too far.

I was about to give up, but then the gate opens to let a car through. Aiko and I smile and quickly run through. The man in the car starts yelling at us to come back but he's too slow to catch us.

Aiko and me run until we can't anymore. We walk and look around, trying to find someone, but, we don't know where we are.

"Where do we go?" I ask.

Aiko just points and I follow her. Aiko keeps telling me where to go.

Soon, it starts to rain.

Then, Aiko falls down.

She's crying.

"I give up," she yells, "we can't find them. We'll never find them. We'll be all alone forever." She says. I start to cry too. Aiko is super strong, she protects me from bullies and strangers. She punched a man in the no-no square after he tried to get me to go with him. It was funny.

"Hey, no. We can't give up yet sister. We'll find them, I know we will. Um... we can call uncle Dabi, maybe he'll know what to do." I say.

Aiko sniffs and nods. I quickly get the phone Mom and Dad gave us. They said it's only for emergencies. I click the call button and click on uncle Dabi's name.

It rings...

Still ringing...

"Hello?"
