I think I finally come to the realization that I don't recognize myself anymore.

I've changed faces, personalities, and hair too many times to keep myself hidden but even I don't know where I'm actually hiding. It's confusing to me. It feels like all my personalities are just hovering over me, waiting to switch places or I'm in costume on a film set, waiting for the cameras to turn on so I can give the performance of a lifetime.

I don't know who I am anymore. Who am I today? Who will I be tomorrow? When can I just be Astraea? When can I be me again? It's all Humarise's doing. All this running, all this hiding. My happiness was taken away because of them, their theories.

It's their fault. They made me hide. They made me a criminal.

"It's so lively here!" Midoriya exclaimed

It's been a couple days since the mission of infiltrating Humarise's base and coming back empty handed. To gather information, Endeavor's agency and the rest of the heroes stayed in their respective countries to find Humarise's hidden base. The 3 heroes were sent to go grocery shopping for the agency's dinner preparations tonight.

"It's the biggest city in Otheon Midoriya" Todoroki replied, struggling to carry his bags of groceries

"I don't care if we're standing by or what, BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO GO SHOPPING FOR SOME DAMN GROCERIES?!" Bakugo yelled, Midoriya flinched jolting his head back at the volume of his voice.

"Seriously Kacchan, I'm right next to you".

"We're the lowest ranking members on the squad"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"

"The only reason we're on the World Heroes team is because Endeavor is our supervisor on this mission and recommended us to go. We're freebies thrown in last minute." Todoroki explained.

Midoriya walked in front of them, "But since we're on the team, we need to protect everyone with everything we have"

"Midoriya's right. The ideological organization, Humarise".

"The damn organization that's obsessed with their fucking imagination.. The hell's with Quirk Doomsday Theory anyways..
They're taking a bull shit story with no basis in truth seriously."

Suddenly a loud ringing erupted in the plaza. Two men ran out from a jewel store carrying a metal briefcase as they continued speeding down the street.

"IT'S A JEWELRY THIEF! CATCH HIM PLEASE!"

Astraea sat on the roof of the buildings playing on her switch but abruptly stopped when she noticed three heroes running down the street, directly after the two thieves

'It doesn't look like they're from here. Could they be international heroes?

'Should I leave this to them? They seem capable'

Astraea sat on the roof contemplating on catching up to them or going back home to continue her studies. It would be nice to help out the store owner since she owes him a favor anyway but one misstep and she'll get outed to the entire town and soon the police will find out about her whereabouts, causing her to have to start all over again.
