Izuku lay parallel to the ground high in the air as he looked down at the homeless-looking man traverse the woods in his direction. He noticed the man, probably a hero, begin to make his way in his direction. He thought nothing of it until he moved to get a better view of the second group of children and the man changed direction to head his way once again. He moved once more to see if he was truly coming for him or just a coincidence. For a third time, he headed to where he floated high in the air or at least under him.

"Definitely has some sort of tracking quirk to be able to find me. As for why? If he is guarding children then it would make sense to be aware of all possible threats in the area. As for his intentions if he finds me? Well, most heroes have been made aware of me so not great." Izuku hummed to himself and tapped the stone in the shape of a tree if you squinted hard enough. "Same protocol, observe and then engage if wanted. Maybe ask why they are all here. Still unknown quirk so watch for that." He nodded to himself and began to lazily do barrel rolls as he continued to work on his sculpture.

Far below, Aizawa quietly made his way through the trees. He scanned the area constantly and was in communication with Ragdoll constantly for updates on locations. So far, whoever was near the camp was able to move extremely quickly. He couldn't tell if they knew he was on his way to find them or if it was just a coincidence that they moved that often. Aizawa was on edge as he got closer and closer to the unknown person. He looked at the time and it was beginning to change from a bright day to a dimming sunset.

"Be aware, you will come into contact with the unknown shortly. They have not moved since the last position change." A communication device sounded in his ear.

Eraserhead quietly responded. "Understood." He moved slowly and quietly in the direction of the unknown person.

He kept his one eye scanning constantly for threats or even a sign of passing but there wasn't a single sound or sign of anything abnormal. His whole body was tense in preparation for moving in case of an ambush but nothing happened. He looked everywhere, from treetops to feeling the earth's vibrations or the trees to see if any were hiding someone.

"You have passed the unknown." Ragdoll's voice sounded in his ear.

Aizawa froze and turned around. "I have not seen anything suspicious, please confirm where the unknown is."

There was a long pause before Ragdoll said quickly. "Unknown has moved to be right beside you."

Eraserhead snapped his head to the side and scanned the earth then up in the trees. He stopped when he made eye contact with a young man the age of his students. "Contact, young male. Green eyes and hair, confronting." He stopped whispering and spoke loudly to the boy, his whole body tense to attack or defend. "Who are you and why are you here?" He tightened his grip on his scarf and readied to activate his quirk.

Izuku tilted his head as he watched the Hero tense. "I'm Izuku and I'm exploring." He stood on a tree branch looking slightly down at the man. "Who are you? A hero I'm guessing?"

"You are on private property and a secure site. Why have you been watching my class?"

"Class? Like 1A? That hero school? Is this UA?" He looked unimpressed at the idea of the famous school being so remote and small. "I figured hero schools would have been more sophisticated. Not this...place?" He motioned to the woods.

Aizawa furrowed his brows at the boy. He couldn't sense a single sign of dishonesty. "Why are you here?" He refuses to believe he was simply walking in the woods only to stumble upon the secure site they chose last minute.

Izuku shrugged. "I already said. I was exploring and saw your... class training and watched in curiosity. You didn't answer my question, is this UA?"

Aizawa pursed his lips before answering. "No, this is not UA." He thought of his next move and made his choice. "You'll need to come with me, I can not allow you to leave with the knowledge of where this location is."
