XXI

After some washing up and calming down, I was standing in U.A's principle Nezu's office. Honestly, to tell you the truth, I'm embarrassed. I not only cried but called Aizawa 'dad'. It just felt right in the moment. But I'm still mad. Mainly at myself but whatever. I was currently waiting for the pro heroes to come and talk to me.

I wonder what they want.

I heard the door open, and in came a bunch more people than Id hope.

Nezu, Midnight, Sniper, Vlad King, Endeavor, Present mic, All Might, and Aizawa.

How fun.

They all stood in front of me and I bowed to the heroes.

"My name is (Y/N) (L/N), or better known as Summoner. I apologize for all my past mistakes and problems I have caused you. Please forgive me."

It was quiet.

Until Mr. Cockatoo ran up to me and gave me a tight hug.

"OMG, THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! IM SO GLAD YOU'RE ON OUR TEAM!" 

I looked at him confused, blinking. "I'm what now?". Present Mic put me down and looked me straight in the eyes, his hands on my shoulder. "You're a hero now!" 

If I was drinking something I sure would have choked on it. My eyes widen, I slowly started laughing. "Oh, you can't be serious-"

"Serious as cheese!" 

I saw Nezu facepalm, muttering something along the lines of "That doesn't even make sense". I still can't process what's happening right now. "You guys, want me, a villain, to be a hero?" Most of them nodded, the others keeping a straight face. "You can help us." I looked at Aizawa as he said that. Then it hit me.

"OH! You think because you saw me as an emotional wreck and called you 'dad', that I'm suddenly a good guy! Well sorry to break it to you but-"  

"You said you didn't want this life anymore." 

Well shit. 

Come on (Y/N) think of something.

"You're right, but I wasn't referring to my villain life. I meant I didn't want to live anymore. You know like to die? But you can't get everything in life can you haha." I mentally yell at myself. 

Was that really the best I got?

"Young (L/N), a student was taken while at the camp and we could really-"

"Ya ya ya, I know! I was apart of that attack! Gosh, aren't you guys suppose to be smarter than this!"  

"Do you know who they took?" Midnight said with her hands on her hips. How is she a teacher omg-

I shrugged looking at all of them with a bored expression. "They wouldn't tell me who. They said it would be fun if it was a surprise! Plus it wasn't my mission. I just got dragged along" I turned my back to them trying to tell them I'm not going to work with them. 

"They took Bakugou Katsuki." 

My eyes widen at his name. I turned back to face them, trying to find any hint of lying in their expressions. 

"What?!" 

><><><><><><><><

I paced back and forth. I can't do this. This is too much for me. I sighed quietly, stopping the mental fight I was having. I need to do this. There is no other option. I looked up from the ground staring at the bar door. Without a second thought, I opened it. 

I was instantly held up against the wall with a knife against my neck. "Oh, Hi Toga." My voice was thin from the pressure against my vocal cord. "OMG (Y/N)! I MISSED YOU BEST FRIEND!" Toga dropped her knife and hugged me tightly. I tried to get out of her grip, which I did successfully. I gave her a small smile before moving towards the group. 

And there he was. 

Bakugou Katsuki. 

We made eye contact. His aggressive expression softened at the sight of me. I looked away, turning my back to him. This hurts too much.  I needed to stay in character. 

"Well, nice to know the league cares about me. Oh, by the way, Dabi I hate you." I said standing beside Shigaraki, who was looking at me confused. I locked eyes with him, clearly understanding his questionable look. "Dabi told Twice to make clones of himself and not me while we were out." 

"You never asked." 

I'm gonna punch him I swear-

I calmed down, I needed to focus.

"Anyways, Vlad King got me, but clearly I was able to get out. The security system they have sucked." I shrugged, Toga and Twice laughed. I love those two. 

"(Y/N) . . . Since you're here now. Untie him, if we want him to join us he must be treated as an equal." I looked at Shi, blinking twice, before turning to see the hero who I love. I swear I felt my eyes start to water. This was my life. I can't just change who I am. I'm sorry . . . 

"Dabi you do it." 

The fire boy squinted his eyes at me, knowing he had to listen to me unless he wanted to be kicked out. He looked at the explosive boy, then back at me. "Twice you do it-"

"HOLY FUCK SOMEONE JUST UNTIE HIM!" 

I jumped at Shi's sudden burst. I've never heard him swear before. It was funny. I covered my mouth trying not to laugh. I watched as Twice slowly made his way towards the crimson eyes, letting him free from his restraint. 

I couldn't focus. I can see in his eyes the hate he has for me. I was so out of it I didn't even realize Shi was talking again. Suddenly he was punch. And something hit the ground. 

Father . . . 

Everyone stayed silent. Oh, boy was the blue-haired man pissed. 

"I would never join low lives like you . . ." 

His words hurt so much. But he wasn't wrong. We all waited for Shi's next command. "Kurogiri. Knock him out again." Before the warped man could even move an inch we heard a knock on the door. 

"Pizza delivery!" 

. . . 

. . 

. 

I smiled. 

It's time.
