"So, your mother..." Overhaul started.

"Is gone? Why bring up the dead?" I leaned my head back against the frame of the couch I sat on. "If it's the rumor about her eyes, it's true. I incinerated them after she murdered my father."

Overhaul leaned forward. "I knew there was a reason I liked you, you're broken but you're not crazy like the rest seem. You've got a level head on your shoulders, so what is some kid doing slumming it with the League of Villains?"

"I don't see how that's any of your business, but I happen to have a thing for the leader. Under all those hands, danm fine." I smirked.

"Sarcastic little..."

The door flew open. "Sir, we're being attacked by heroes! I have Eri."

"It's time to pull you weight. Thorn, you're in charge of the child, let's move." Overhaul commanded as he stood up.

The group exited the room quickly, heading down a long hallway. Toga and Twice headed in the opposite direction.

"They've confirmed that there's over a dozen heroes."

Overhaul cursed under his breath causing Eri to grab my hand.

I looked down at the child, her eyes looked broken. Like she was being tortured on a daily basis. I picked her up, holding her to my chest. "It's OK, we're gonna get out of here ok? Everything is going to be fine."

Eri leaned into my ear. "He's going to kill you, you need to get away."

"Excuse me..."

That voice caused me to stop dead in my tracks.

"Can I ask you some questions?"

I turned around, stand not 10 feet from me was Mirio Togata.

"Rox..." Mirio quickly shook his head.

"You shouldn't have been able to get here this fast." Overhaul commented.

"I took a short cut, I'm here to rescue the little girl." Mirio explained.

I took a step back. This girl needs to go with Mirio but I can't blow my cover, not when I'm this close to having the whole League's trust. They'd be interested in using her quirk for Nomus for sure, I can't allow that. For the sake of this girl and hero society, I can't let the League get their hands on this sort of thing. Considering that Mirio is here I could guess their are other heroes in training, 3rd years most likely.

"Thorn! Move!" Overhaul's voice shook me from my thoughts.

I threw myself backwards, noticing Mirio’s form getting closer.

"You traitor!" Mirio shouted, echoing in the hall.

I crouched down, growing a thorned shield in front of us. It was a dirty play but neither Mirio or the Yakuza will attack me with Eri obstructed from view.

"You're going to die down here." Overhaul spoke before turning to me. "Let’s go!"

I stood up and started moving along with the 2 men while 2 other men started to attack Mirio.

I need to do something now, I've gotta help Mirio somehow.

"Chisaki!" Mirio appeared in front of us and swung at him.

Overhaul stepped back and I swung his legs out from under from him. Mirio took Chronos to the floor and snatched Eri from my arms.

"You little bitch..." Overhaul started.

"Believe me the original plan was not to piss off my boss by betraying you but I can't let you keep hurting this little girl!" I shouted.
