"Fuuuucckkk there's nothing to eat." I whine annoyedly stomping my feet on the ground.
It's been a week since mom left for that 'mission' leaving me alone with nothing to do but wake up, make lunch, go to school, learn, go home, and do homework. And while I've been doing my daily schedule I've been feeling as though someone has been in the house multiple times. I've found papers and pens in random places around the house I've tried dearly to keep clean. At first I thought I did it.
But after a while things have gone missing, out of place. I found my secret candy stash that I had behind my dresser under the bed and random papers on the coffee table; while mom's been gone I'd make sure her room door was locked before I left for school everyday and found it slightly cracked open today, I had gotten a text from mom saying Dabi would be coming over to make sure I was doing okay and that he'd be staying until she got back.
"Welp, I'ma have to head to the store now, fuck my social skills are wack man" Sighing I head towards my room seeing it slightly cracked open
I swear that door was closed when I walked out I thought silently panicking a bit before walking in and looking around, everything seemed put in it's place other than a few pens being on the floor and my desk drawer opened, all my sketching paper was in their.
Shrugging it off I grab my wallet look inside for a good amount of money and walk out, making sure the door was closed before I left completely; walking back downstairs the thought of having to go out made my stomach squeamish, but reluctantly I do throwing on a black baggy sweater and my boots then left.

"Target has left the building- is that girl really wearing all black and a light baby blue wallet with a Skillet sticker on it? And I thought I was old school" Tod said seemingly shocked by her choice in clothing.
"Stay focused on the task at hand Tod- dammit she locked the door again" Alan groaned pulling out pick pocketing tools then began his journey to unlock the door to Liz's mothers room. "For such a pretty girl she's got a foul mouth, if my mama heard me talking like that I'd have soap in my mouth and be on watch" Tod exclaimed listening to Liz's silent curses
"Finally, got the door unlocked. Tell me what I'm looking for Tod" Alan said into the mic as Tod scanned the body cam
"We are looking for a file labeled 'Matrox' inside should be a list of names and birth records. And addresses." Tod listed looking from one screen to the other;
one being the body cam of his partner and the other, a tracking device sneakily put on Liz's phone.

After a few hours of searching Alan finally found something. "Listen to this" Alan started, smacking the pieces of paper holding Liz's birth records. "Man, we ain't got time for that, she'll be home in a few minutes." Tod exclaimed throwing his hands into the air annoyedly
"Hold on just listen.- Name: Liz Anderson, age fifteen. Power: she can control Light, dark, metal and says something else it's been blotted out with ink on both sides. But it says here her father is the number four hero in the US, also says her birthday is this Friday and that she's got another quirk but that part is torn out, her mother obviously didn't want Liz finding out any of this-" Alan cut off to a knocking at the door, Tod looks at the camera set up outside to show some burned guy knocking on the door looking down at his phone.
It also showed Liz not too far away "Get out of there man!" Tod practically yelled out watching as everything was put back in it's original place and his partner ran out of the room locking it on the way out and out through Liz's bedroom window

That same black van was parked down the street for the entire week mom's been gone. By now I knew it was those two agents who I had forgotten about until now.
When I got home with my groceries Dabi was waiting by the front door, phone in hand and looked ready to leave
"Oh- did you wait long Dabi?" I asked calmly making eye contact with my favorite turquoise eyed friend. "Got here not too long ago, need help?" Dabi asked nodding his head towards the groceries in hand "Nah I got it" I half lied pulling out my key before heading towards the door twisting it in the lock struggling a bit as I did so.
"You sure you don't need help?" I could hear the laugh in Dabi's voice. Sighing in defeat I step back and allow Dabi to unlock the door completely before entering
"Thank you" I said quickly heading for the kitchen to put everything away. Dabi walked into the living room and plopped on the couch making himself right at home; after finally getting everything put away I head upstairs to my room to check if my paranoia was doing me any favors. Mom's door was still locked luckily, but mine was cracked open and the bed was a mess. Now I knew for sure they'd gotten in here and went through probably both mine and mom's stuff
"Hey Dabi-" Cutting myself off I head back downstairs towards Dabi. He looked my way instantly "Before I arrived, did you by any chance hear anything?" His expression remained calm but the tension grew and a more serious expression came over him. "No I didn't." He answered keeping his eyes locked on mine, by the way it looked he was looking for an explanation of my question
"Well, I've been finding things out of place and on the floor." I took a seat beside him, keeping my eyes on my hands Dabi's arm swings over and pulls me closer to his warmth "Sure you didn't do that doll?" His voice became slightly deeper and looked almost protective.
"Yes, I'm sure, before I got here I made sure to close my bedroom door before I went to the store, it was cracked open and my bed was a mess when I got back" My nerves worsened at the thought of someone going through my room.
The things I had in there were not meant for anyone to see. "How longs it been happening?" Dabi asked calmly, I look up at him with soft and scared eyes making sure we kept contact.
"All week" I replied to his question noticing his palm heat up slightly as it rested on my thigh
