Dabi POV

I'm go into my room and place my bag on my bed. Everything has been all messy recently with the Kurogiri stuff. My desk is crowded with jars and bottles. My shelves too! I hardly have any space for my own stuff. I use storage boxes and shove them under my bed for gods sake!

I don't even have space for old family pictures or things Touya owned that I managed to get my hands on. Welp, it's better like this. Imagine Toga finding those. She wouldn't stop asking about it. Worse if Shigaraki does. He would make a big deal of it. He gets especially angry when he doesn't know something that he could definitely know, and he'll do anything. My life would literally be on the line.

I walk in the bar room again to find that Shiggy is hugging Eri, like they were in there own little world. Huh, Mr softie indeed. Toga watches them, smiling like the grinch, while Kurogiri wipes the table from McDonald's ketchup. Eri is a messy eater with not a doubt.

Walking over to them I tell Shigs "I kinda need to take her home, Face palmer, so could you let go". They look up at the same time. So much similarities it hurts.

I notice a little protectiveness in how he was holding her. Maybe they've bonded? With the little knowledge of I gathered on Eri, I can tell that the only barrier of them being friends would be that Shigs a villain.

"Do I have to? She's an angel" he whines and then looks at her, and she looks at him with a childish pout, "Do you want to stay?".

Eri fiddles her fingers nervously, "I want to stay but... I really want to go back to Dadzawa and the rest 1a... like Hitoshi-nii and Mr Deku and also Mr Mirio too..." she answers like she's unsure how Shigs will react. I look through the both of them.

Shigs smiles "Of course then!" and he lifts her off his lap, standing her up, then stands up himself.

"We are going to miss this little unicorn, are we?" I tease and smirk as I straighten myself up. He looks at me with annoyance and covers Eri's eyes with his hand. I notice that he has tilted her head down a bit while he flips me off. We chuckle afterwards as Eri makes this look : 😐

As we make way to the portal - her saying her goodbyes - she tugs my leg. I kneel down and she asks "What if everyone makes me tell them about where you live and what you look like?".

I smile. Time to teach her about rights. And attitude. She's old enough to be a rebel anyways!

Midoriya POV

We all commission to our windows to see both Eri and a glimpse of Hacker. I was so glad that she was safe and sound. Her being lost was almost like going to Antarctica in a short sleeve shirt! I can't imagine what might've happened if someone 'else' got to her. Like a villain.

Hacker and the rest were such a help too. Though I don't know ANY one of them, I can tell they're pretty good people and trust them quite a bit. Apart from the fact that they are unknown to everyone and won't say their identities. Also them exposing everyone (especially me) for a reaction. Hacker is so interesting though!

Soon I hear a high, young voice from the ground floor yelling "I'M BACK!".

I practically use 50% of OFA to run down those stairs and hear a few people behind me. That voice can't be anyone else but Eri! Hacker might've came from the other side.

When I arrive I already see Aizawa, Shinso and Mic group hugging Eri tightly. Aizawa mutters all apologies while checking to see if she's alright. I notice Mina taking pictures though, she'll so get in trouble if he ever finds out.

After they were done, Eri looks over at me and runs for a hug. I hug her too and lift her in the air for a small twirl. When I put her down, I place her on the sofa. She needs to say a few things. Although we're glad she's safe.

Aizawa POV

Problem child no.1 places Eri on the sofa, this is probably a sign that we all need to talk about something. Nezu pushes a chair towards the hall and sits facing my daughter. Let's hope Eri can handle a slight interrogation.

Nezu speaks with a smile "Hi Eri how are you? You probably know me as Principal Nezu" but Eri only replies with a thumbs up. She always uses her words... Nezu continues "Who dropped you off here?".

Eri stays silent. What did they do to her? It's like she was examining each question, like there was a wrong answer, to see if something would catch her off guard.

She answers back "Mr Hacker did!". Oh, touché Hacker, touché. He is really making me tick. Even though he probably knows more than we think. If his obsession of getting a reaction gets to out of hand, so will the media.

Problem child no.7 (Uraraka) asks "Did anyone actually see anyone that could be Hacker, Face palmer, Vampling and/or Motherboard?".

No.8 agrees "Yeah, I think Hacker pretty much found a way to come undetected". Of course.

Some of my class groans and no.2 mutters "Teasing son of a b*tch" However Hitoshi manages to cover the last word. Good.

Nezu turns attention back to Eri "Can you tell us, if you remember that is, where they live or what they look like?". Okay, we're finally getting somewhere. Eri will have to tell us what they look like, maybe at least a description on hair colour or eye colour. Even better if she remembers the route to their house or at least what their house looked like.

"No".

I look at her in shock. This isn't how Eri acts. Not that I force her to do as told all time but she is very obedient. I look at my students. They were surprised as well. Mic pulls his glasses down slowly.

Nezu did a frown "And why's that?".

Eri then did something shocking. She crossed her legs.

Since when did she do that!? Where did this attitude come from? People who were further from the commotion were murmuring and I look to see Midnight's eyebrows rising and the tips of her mouth lift a bit.

"That information is a secret that I promised to keep safe, regardless of the fact you are heroes" Eri says, but it looks like she had that line memorised, like someone told her to say it. She continues "If you want a deal, you'd have to speak to my FOUR lawyers".

Even Nezu looks at he didn't see that coming.

"And who may that be?" Nezu questions.

"Mr Hacker, Mr Face palmer, Miss Vampling and Mr Motherboard" Eri replies in confidence but still with a emotionless face. Her voice was more monotone than usual.

I spoke up "Eri, what exactly did they tell you?". This is obviously just to piss us off.

"They said I have a right to privacy as a child but I can still treat you guys how good I always do" Eri explains closing her eyes.

Hitoshi says "Eri, that's not how you sit in front of grown ups. Uncross your legs and sit properly".

"Oh, I'm so sorry!!!" Eri quickly exclaims as she uncrosses her legs even quicker. This means they taught her what type of words to say when being questioned on them because she's still had the same attitude and respect towards others.

What the f*ck did they do to my daughter?
