Guiding Star

Chapter 9- The Exchange:

Shōta Aizawa

He woke up one of the Idols shaking him away, "Shōta!" She said desperately smacking his face.

"What happened?" He said getting up, "Summer what happened." He said and she shook her head, her brunette hair shaking with her head.

"The League, it was an inside job. Three kids are missing, Katsuki Bakugo, All Mights protege, and Roman Smith." Summer said and Aizawa shook his head.

"Roman was the one who betrayed us, it was actually the Villain Liberation, she got roped into this somehow." Aizawa said racing towards the cabins to see everyone quite shaken up.

"Listen up, your all getting to go home for the time being, since none of you are hurt you get to go home." Aizawa explained, "i am truly sorry this keeps happening." Everyone seemed shocked by his sudden apology, "all of your belongings are still in the bus so get on and we'll take you back to your houses."

Everyone shook their heads in agreement and Aizawa for the next three hours orchestrated the sudden closure of school so the kids could have time off. The parents were worried and shaken up and he had to explain to both of the missing parents that it was an inside job and that they would do everything in their power to get their kids back. They put their faith in the system once again, praying that their children would come home safely.

"Shōta , are you alright?" Hizashi asked stopping him at his door and he shrugged. "That isn't an answer."

"What am I supposed to say?" Aizawa answered tiredly. "One of the only people I trust beside you stabbed me in the back after breaking in my room." Aizawa said opening his door to see George on his kitchen counter meowing. "And she broke in again and left me her cat."

"Georgie." Hizashi said happily calling the cat who rubbed at his legs. "That's not your duffel is it?" He said pointing to the duffel bag Aizawa had never seen before.

Aizawa opened the bag figuring that whatever may happen would be better than dealing with his emotions. All he saw was a box of jewelry and a lot of money. He opened up the box and found aliases and faces he had never seen before, each name was thought out and the ID cards were hand drawn. Male and female identities alike were all in this box, there must have been at least six other people than the three Aizawa knew of.

"She left me her identities and her money." Aizawa said not even sure what to to with this.

"And a letter." Hizashi said handing him the folded piece of paper and he opened it to see Romans handwriting he once familiarize himself with when she- well he told him what he wanted to be.

Azi-

I'm so sorry, i cannot say this enough. They threatened my life and i was more than willing to do the job for money. It was supposed to be no feelings attached and a quick job. Though I'm not ashamed to admit that these past few months have been the best of my life, but that's besides the point. By realizing that i betrayed you, you know i saw the letter you left to the Pro Hero's board. You hope for such good in my soul i forgot i was capable of giving. While everything has gone to hell i will not let them lay a hand on whoever they take. I promise i will die before they harm any of the kids, non lethal methods only and none of them harming anyone. Everything i said was true, i have no reason to lie to you Aizawa. Like i said all those months ago, i consider you a friend. Trust me Azi, i will have your kids back to you without a scratch on them.

Love- Roman (which is my true name by the way)

"It said her life was being threatened, she was sorry for betraying us. She also promised she wouldn't let anything happen to Bakugo and Midoriya." Aizawa said handing the letter to Hizashi so he could read it.
