She was frowning as she signed her lease papers. It was a contract to indicate that she will no longer be living there. She mumbled curses under her breath as she closed the door and gave the staff the key to her old home. She sighed and let the butler take her bag as they went down.

Some of her things were already sent ahead in UA. Once she had stepped outside of the building, she looked at it once more before sighing and the ground had swallowed her whole as she made her way to her school. The dorms were a 5 minute walk from the campus entrance, she saw some of her classmates and some of them waved at her and went near her, asking how she had been. They had wanted to visit her but her hospital was very far from where Midoriya and the others were admitted.

She smiled at Jiro and the supposed Hagakure beside her.

She remembered talking to Hawks after her two teachers left the penthouse.

"Thank you," she muttered and bumped her fist on Hawks' arm. Hawks gave her an amused glance and she rolled her eyes. "Thank you for being worried," she continued.

"You don't need to thank me. That's what big brothers are for, right?"

Miruzu only smiled in response.

"You talk to the Commission, not me," Miruzu said as she looked at him and Hawks almost forgot that he needed to tell the Commission that. He groaned as he slouched at the couch.

Hawks glared at her, "I hate you,"

"No, you don't."

"Glad to know that you do know."

Everyone in Class 1-A got permission to be part of the dorm system. All of them stood in front of their new home and Aizawa was looking at them. He looked more tired than ever, Miruzu noticed this ever since he went inside her home. With all of the hate that UA has been getting and the media getting close, it was surely tiring considering that Aizawa didn't like the media.

"After the press conference, I thought some will leave the school," Tsuyu stated as she put a finger under her chin. "I was really upset about it," she added.

"Me too. Well we've been through a lot," Aizawa said in reply.

Been through hell you mean. Miruzu had thought. She was at the back beside Bakugou who had not even spoken to her ever since that morning in front of the police station. He only looked at her a while back and nodded in greeting, Miruzu who was confused just did the same too. Bakugou who had been thinking about what just happened to him, the kidnapping, didn't have time to think about what happened between him and Miruzu. He had thought about it, sure, but he hadn't given it much thought, like, he wanted to just stay as it is for now as he was still unstable.

His thoughts were a mess ever since he was kidnapped. He had a lot of realizations.

Instead of acting reckless, I should act relaxed and see if the traitor exposes himself. That might work. Aizawa had thought as he scratched his head. "All right. Right now, I'll briefly introduce the dorms," he said to his students and then clapped his hands, "But first, let me mention this."

"For now, you'll be working towards the provisional licenses that we talked about during summer camp," he said. "It's important. Listen carefully." he added then looked at "Kirishima, Yaoyorozu, Todoroki, Midoriya, Iida. The five of you went to that place and tried to rescue Bakugou," he said as he slightly narrowed his eyes. Miruzu felt Bakugou stiffened beside her and she placed her hand on top of his and stroked his hand with her thumb.
