Izuku lied.

He was not sleeping, not like he could, anyways. He backed a small bag, and quietly crept to the kitchen. He he grabbed a couple snacks, a bag filled with goldfish, and other stuff.

He almost finished unlocking the door when he heard quiet footsteps come down the steps. He turns, knife in hand, and the guy freezes.

He instantly recognizes it as shinsou.

"What are you doing, Izuku? It's 4 AM, why are you trying to leave?" Shinsou asks.

"Because..I don't belong here, this isn't my home."

"But-"

"No buts, I'm not buying it. None of you a trust worthy here, your dad might've helped me, but that never lasts long.. everyone here is a threat, and you only want to use me for recognition,"

"Izuku, we won't hurt you here. Just trust us, please." Shinsou outs a hand behind his back, and texts his father.

Aizawa feels his phone vibrate from under his pillow. it reads,

'Shinsou

'Living room. Now. Izuku.'

Aizawa shoots up , and runs downstairs.

Izuku throw the knife backwards, and jt hits Hitoshi in the face, knocking him out cold. He finishes unlocking the door, and Aizawa comes in.

"Ughh, just great. Why cant you just let me go? Its not like you need or even wanted me here, anyways.."

"Because, Izuku, you deserve a second chance. And where willing to give that too you. But you have to trust us."

Trust? Like hell he would trust them. Nobody he trusted before gave the same, expect for his roommates. And even then, did he feel he wasn't trustworthy enough. Like if the same trust he gave wasn't given back.

And how quick they were to spill his identity, proved his suspicious right.

"Like hell I would trust you. All you and pro hero's have ever done was abandon me, leave me somewhere in the muddy grass and let me cry to myself. I will never go through that again." Venom laces his voice, and a shiver sends through Aizawa's spine.

Izuku turns, finally jumping out and running to the forest. He notices Aizawa chasing him, but keeps running anyways. To anywhere, to the treehouse one last time, to get away from him.

He doges the capture scarf left and right, until jt finally stood, and Aizawa finishes chasing him. When he does, Izuku stops, and looks around to where he is in the forest.

'South of this star..so that means I'm about 10 minutes away from the treehouse..'  he mesmerized the stars, so they told him exactly where his home is. He follows the directions, going North east for 10 minutes.

He finally reached his treehouse, and there he lies, Seiko, waiting.

"Jeez oh Peez, took you long enough," He complains

"Well, I didnt mean too, I was being chased down by a pro hero since his son caught me leaving. Took me ten minutes to get here and another 10 to lose him." Seiko shrugs anyway.

"Anyways, I got my bag. Ready for the red lights?"

"Defiantly. Citrine is back in buisness," They both give of reminiscing grins.

"And the new and improved Exoricst," They both laugh, before going to back more stuff away from the treehouse.

Izuku packs his laptop, fresh pairs of clothes, money, cleaning necessities, (Toothpaste, brush, etc,) and Seiko packed food, water, pairs of clothes, his father's credit card.

They both grabbed bats, Izuku grabbed a blood covers one, while Seiko's was covered in ice.

"Finally, it feels nice to hold this bat. And get away from Enji and Rei, but I do feel bad.." he trails off.

"About Shoto, right?" Izuku asks. Seiko nods.
"
Well, if we were to ask him, he'd say no. You know he's devoted to being a hero like all might, even if he never says it, he always wanted to be a hero anyways. I don't think he'd come with us." Seiko frowns at this, but Izuku counties anyway.

"But, if you really want to, we can check on him every now and then. But not always. We can't risk Enji or Rei catching us over there."

"Okay. Thank you, Izuku."

"Anything for my best friend," He puts a hand on Seiko's shoulder, and Seiko smiles back.

"Well, let's go before the hero's and police get here," Seiko says,

The police's blaring alarms give them there cue, and they jump out the back window, and into the dangerous path of musutafu.

Veiynehill.

"Izuku..can we stop real quick?!" Seiko shouts, panting, from behind the guy.

"Yeah, sure." He begins to slow down near a rock, and they out themselves at a rest.

"We're almost out of the forest and into Veiynehill, then, I know an abandoned place we can stay. I scoped out the area a while before I was caught," izuku explains. Seiko nods

"Man, you run fast. I'm gonna have to work on that," he sighs, and takes deep breathes.

"Hey, there's a beach called Galesong, it's the dirtiest beach out of the two cities. Dagobah beach comes second though. We could clean Galesong, that could help too,"

"Yeah, smart thinking, Zuku!" He points a finger gun and winks, izuku chuckles.

"Do you want to rest here, or make jt out the forest first?" He says, and checks his watch. Jt reads 2:09 AM.

"We can make it out the forest. I'm good now," Seiko responds, and stands up , before stretching his legs.

"Alright..we lost the police, done can go a bit slower. I'm gonna keep jogging though," izuku says, and starts jogging ahead. Seiko follows shortly after.

Arrival

Izuku checks his watch, and looks at the time,  it reads 2:42. It took them a good 30 some  tbh ing minutes to get to Veiynehill.

Seiko leans over, hands on his knees, worn out. And izuku notices this.

"Hey, I can carry you if you'd like, DIWN worry, I'll get us there and wake you up. Okay?" Seiko nods, to tired to disagree at the moment. He lets izuku kneel down, and Seiko hops on.

Izuku gets moving again, jogging, two bags and a person on his back. He continues anyways, and takes a good 15 minute to get the the building. He sets Seiko down, and begins to make a palette with the extra bag he brought, full of blankets, and pillows.

He keeps Seiko asleep, knowing he will be scolded for not keeping more of his part. He lays Seiko down on one side, and he lays in the other.

He grabs his GoeJo (Gojo) plushie from his bag, and squeezes it. Jujutsu Kaisen was always one of his favorite animes.

He looks around the abandoned building, and thinks  himself again.

"Another place for cleaning.." he sighs, and closes his eyes, and falls asleep to the quiet sound of cars' outside.
