Lullaby of a Hero

Locating a Missing Princess

It took two days before Anna was declared missing. To be fair, it only started with a confused class A, who only arrived back to a room missing a person. Aizawa took attendance, as if he didn't know, as well as Izuku and Ochako also acting as if they didn't know. Since he had to report this to Nezu, he did, and therefore the rat had to make the call to Saiko.

Aizawa was in the Nezu's office when she stormed into the room. "How did you just... lose her?"

"She left for the weekend. We do not decide where or what she does during that time." Nezu responded.

"I would like your security footage, regardless. Just in case she was on campus without your knowledge."

"Very well, I will transfer it over."
Aizawa offered his assistance, "If you don't mind, I can ask around, try to find out what happened."

She looked at him, "Very well."

"I'll start at the last known place she was seen. Your manor." Aizawa said plainly, and she nodded, "Very well."

When Aizawa arrived at the Yaoyorozu manor, he couldn't help but stop and appreciate it. Living in the city, for the most part, he never really saw places like this. It was a slice of life from a different part of the world. However, he didn't stay for long, as his hosts were walking towards the main entrance.

Catching up, Saiko explained to him. "The last people to see her in this house are myself, Sebas, and our guest at the time, Dr. Garaki."
That caught Aizawa off guard. "Dr. Garaki? Head of..."
"Yes, head of Jaku hospital, famous for his research, ect..." She interrupted, before Aizawa then asked:

"Why was he here?" Aizawa asked, "You don't get a man like that out here for no reason."
"It was for a quirk test. I wanted the best." She said, before they found a blonde girl with fairy-like wings. "This is Tia Fae. She was assigned to Momo, as her personal servant, much in the same vein as Sebas is mine. They were closest."
"I see... I'll start here."

"Very well. Sebas, come. We have work to do." Saiko said, while Sebas bowed to Aizawa before leaving. The girl kept her head low, as she waited for the Mistress of the house to leave.

After they were gone, she looked up at him. Her face was clam, but her eyes were scared.

"My name is Shota Aizawa. I was Anna's teacher."
She nodded in understanding. "I heard that she went... missing?"
"Yes." He nodded, "I was wanting to ask you a few questions."

"I'll be happy to..." She glanced upward, and he glanced to where she looked. A security camera. She's nervous around the camera.

"When was the last time you saw her?"

"It was that morning, Saturday. I am her direct attendant, so I am the first person she sees."
"Really? I'm not familiar with the... practices... of the wealthy."
"It's more of a Yaoyorozu thing." Tia admitted. "The Mistress has her preferences, and that is what we try to help with."
"I see. So, after that...?"

"Sebas brought breakfast. Pancakes with Bacon and Maple Syrup. Sebas and I were sent off after that, and the three of them had a conversation after that. I don't know what else happened, since she was gone then."

"I see. Thank you for your co-operation..." It was then that she, carefully, slipped him a piece of paper in the handshake she gave.

"No problem. I hope you find her." Her eyes did not reinforce her words.

"We'll certainly try." He nodded, before Sebas returned through the door. He guided him away from the blonde, who turned back to her work. 

After interviewing the rest of the staff, a far longer affair than he thought it would be, he finally left the Manor. Sebas guided him out, at Saiko's request, and said, "I hope you are successful in your endeavor."

"We'll get her back if we find her." Aizawa left, and waited before opening the slip of paper...

This is for Aizawa, the hero in charge of Anna's class. Do not read if not him.

He was impressed, Wow, she planned for just in case it wasn't me.

There is a lot more going on here... the real reason she left is really complicated. We need to talk when I'm not on shift. Since my charge isn't here, that's changed again. Meet me tomorrow at the coffee shop at 13th and 49th.

Tia.

Also, destroy this note when you can.

Smirking slightly, he put away the note for now. She's being careful. Good. That makes whatever's going on much worse than I thought.

Saiko watched the footage for anything out of the ordinary. She had known that Tia was... nervous around her. Far more than before Anna's departure. She's showing suspicion towards me, I need to know why. Sebas returned with a kettle of tea and a beautifully ornate teacup. It was one of her favorites. He poured the amber liquid gracefully, before handing the cup to her, and placed only one sugar cube into it.

"Thank you, Sebas." It was then that her email pinged and UA's security footage had been sent. Opening it, she scrambled through it quickly, her mind processing every detail. This went on for hours, her tea growing cold, until... She stopped it. There Momo was, in the Class A common room. Sharpening an ax.

Watching the scene carefully, she saw a green haired boy arrive, and talk to her. They talked for a moment, before he gave her a note. The dialogue was too quiet to hear, and Saiko wondered. What was in the note? She did not return to the downstairs area, meaning that was the last time she was seen. Nezu and the staff may not have known... wait. Aizawa offered to come here. They didn't seem as concerned as they should be... Then she remembered a certain detail from her own home's security footage. "Sebas."

"Yes?"

She asked a simple question: "Is Tia on break tomorrow?"

"Yes." He replied. "Is... something wrong?"

She smiled, finally content at having a lead. "There is something I need you to do..."
