Chapter 3: Interrogations

4 years ago

"So this is.. what the hell is this?" Astraea examined the small parts of the machine Eddie was building. "This tiny thing is the key to your big plan to stop humarise?"

Eddie chuckled, "It may not look like much but sometimes something small is all you need to make a big change".

He continued putting small pieces together, gear after gear, wire after wire, not letting his concentration falter but something has been bugging him recently about the kid he's been taking care of. He could help but ask the question that's been running around in his mind

"So I've been meaning to ask, why do you think she sent you here? In Otheon out of all places?"

Astraea stopped in her tracks for a moment to think. He has a point. Why Otheon? Why not Paris, or somewhere else in Japan, Why Otheon? What was here for her to find?"

"I actually don't know. There's nothing here fo-"

Then she remembered. Her sister was here. But she went missing two years ago. Was she actually sent here in hopes to find her sister. That doesn't make sense?

Why would Mother do that?

"Actually I guess I was sent here to reunite with my sister. My mother must've hoped I could find her here".

"Your sister? The one who went to college here?"

"Yes, maybe my mother thought we could find each other. She was worried about me being alone so she gave me this chance to find her".

"Do you think she's still out there?"

"Well yeah. My sister's tough. She's alive Eddie, I know she is"

She turned back to Eddie's work bench and continued tinkering with the small device.

"If you don't mind me asking Astraea."

She turned back to Eddie, still working on the key, "What's up?"

"What's your sisters name?"

Bakugo and Todoroki continued walking to the train station, carefully watching their backs since police officers were attempting to follow them. When the two of them noticed that no one was following them, they sighed in relief.

"Now will you tell me what's going on with that damn Deku?" Bakugo whispered

"Just wait till we get on the train Bakugo". Todoroki started walking faster to the station as he saw the train approaching the station

"Hurry, that's our train!"

"DON'T ORDER ME AROUND ICY HOT!"

"Stop yelling"

"So the two briefcases got switched then?" Bakugo crouched down, resting his arms on his knees.

"That's right. The jewelry case got mixed up with another when we were chasing them and now Midoriya has the one belonging to a Humarise member."

Bakugo slowly stood up and pressed his back and foot against the wall, cocking his head to the side. "And the police are chasing that damn nerd because of that?"
