(Some days later)

Midnight POV

The news were full, full of descriptions of what happened and how we looked were from size to age. Every single detail is in the newspaper or on TV. How long we were gone what was speculated while we were missing and then our big appearance. Actually, it was not planned that the media would react to it like that, but that's how it has. Two hero have become villains per night. Hizashi has become very famous by his radio show and I by the modeling that I did from time to time. In each newspaper it says two hero were recorded while they broke in and stole important files.

Shota was hardly mentioned in the newspaper sometimes he was mentioned was called black shadow or a Holmes or an unknown villain nobody on the news recognised him. He was never very famous.

I turn on another channel after I switch for the sixth time, because there was again only something about the files we had stolen. We didn't hurt anyone, or caused collateral damage like the other heroes. Just a few files. However, that's why the Hero Commission is freaking out. Because their strength lies in looking invincible. So this theft was more of an explanation of war.

The small old TV that switches to another channel and UA appears on the TV. The show is streamed live.

Reporter: Well, you've probably seen the news that are everywhere. Now we hear the elusive reports of the students of the two teachers. What do you think of your teachers becoming evil and what would you wish for them?

Bakugo: I HOPE THEY DIE

Shota: That was to be expected. 

He takes a sip from his coffee and puts the cup back on the wobbly table. When we decided to become villains, that was a fast decision, but it was also a decision that we somehow thought of and had decided it for much longer. At first, everyone was afraid to say what everyone thought. However, it was all clear that the clean beautiful path was no longer ours and we would have to live bitterly and in regret till our last breath. But now it seems to me that we are doing the right thing by doing something wrong.

Our goal is simpler said than done. To make Hero Commission collapse. The children have to train to become heroes, and then end up being a murderer or murdered. Being a hero should be a profession because of the villains you should not be afraid to be stabbed every moment from behind by your own colleagues.

Hizashi: Did Anoyama just threw cheese at the reporter and why was he carrying a bucket of milk with him?

Shota: they all lost their brains. I really didn't expect Jiro to attack the reporter.

Me: What? I really missed that!

Shota: If we have to look at this garbage, then at least watch with us.

Iida: I find this very unheroic and I am defounded by them I hope they will spend the rest of their lives in prison regretting their choices.

His movements look much angular.

Shota: If the Hero Commission plans murder is that heroic. In the name Hero Commission is literally hero.

Iida waved his arms around and it ends with him giving Bakugo a hit directly in the face and Bakugo immediately going at him.

Hizashi: Hahahahaha

The reporter simply goes on without saying a word to Nezu.

Nezu: I guess you want to ask me that themselves, what they asked.

Reporter: Yes

Nezu: I hope they get what they deserve

Me: that was not unexpected

Hizashi: what do you expect he is live on TV.

Shota: you both probably didn't see the hidden message

Me: What?

Shota: he said he hopes we get what we deserve. But he didn't say a word exactly what we deserve.

So he can be a bit on our side, so to speak. Nezu would not say such an unambiguous thing, because he is full of the opinion that we deserve a punishment.

Reporter: Thank you

He goes to the next students.

Hizashi: Oh it's Midoriya

We all look curious to the screen

Reporter What do you wish for your former teachers.

Midoriya: I hope they are alright.

It is silent. The reporter is mute and so are we.

Reporter: And why is it that so that you backup 2 villains

Midoriya: Does not wishing someone death or something bad mean that I back them up. What if let's say a thief steals from someone, would you call him criminal?

Reporter: Yes

Midoriya: What if  the thief is stealing for his children fir that he ist trying to get every single cent possible to be able to feed them and he would live with them under a bridge. What if the thief was just a loving father who dedicated his love to his children and even stole money for their good. Would it be criminal if the father just stole so that his children were not found somewhere lifeless frozen on the street

Reporter: ... This is unconventional. Of course, this is another case.

Midoriya: no, it's not it's still theft. You can't judge people by what they do without knowing why. You can't look into their brains, read their minds. Nothing happens without a reason. Good people don't become bad people overnight for no reason. Why should they simply become evil after they saved lives in several life or dead situations. There is always a reason for evil. So I hope they are doing well after whatever reason happened to them to become a villains

We: ...
