Izuku's POV~

We pulled up to a run down looking motel, just oustide of the city, exactly like Sho had said. There were three other cars parked in the lot. They probably just belonged to the rogues that were hiding out here.

"Let's get this over with." Sho said, getting out of the car. I followed after him as we both made our way into the reception area.

We didn't find anyone behind the front desk. Sho hit the little silver bell that was sitting on it, and waited impatiently. I honestly didn't think anyone would appear, but to my surprise a girl walked out from a curtained off part of the lobby.

She was in a typical Japanese school uniform, confusing me a bit seeing as she was in America. She had blonde hair that was tied up into two messy buns on either side of her head. She had a wicked smirk across her face when she saw us, like we were pray.

Her Demon horns were on full display.

Stupid move.

"How can I help you two?" She asked, clearly thinking we were humans that she could scam.

Todoroki sent me a look that I responded to with a nod. Seconds later, his horns were visible and my halo was emitting a soft light. "UA sent us. Clearly, due to your stupidity, you aren't incharge here, so direct us to who is and we may just let you slip away." Sho bargained, his voice low and threatening. It was quiet startling. Especially when you think of the fact that not even two hours ago we were talking and laughing in the car.

Her face was pale and her hands shook as she pointed to the curtain behind her. Sho didn't waist anytime, moving straight to were she directed. I, on the other hand, knew what I had to do.

"I am so sorry miss." I said as I walked past, poking the disk into her shoulder. She looked down at it confused, but a second later she was gone. It was like she glitched out of a video game or something. It was a little bit freaky.

I hurried after Sho, knowing he was on a mission to get in and out of here as quick as possible. I caught up to him as he started to decend some stairs that the curtain was hiding. There were muffled voices that could be heard.

"You can garantee it?" A gruff man's voice spoke up.

"Of course I can." A cocky male's voice responded.

Sho looked back at me, making sure I was still there. He gestured for me to keep following him, but quietly. Once we reached the basement area, we walked through a short hallway and came across a room with no door.

Standing in it, was two business type men, dressed in nice black suits and both seemed to be balding. Standing in front of them was another Demon Halve, horns on full display. He had black hair and seemed to have emense burn scars, all purple and stitched up.

We caught their attention pretty quickly, due to the light still being emitted from my halo. "As an actual Angel, I suggest leaving before God fully gives up on you." I said, crossing my arms and glaring at the two men. They looked like they were about to be sick and quickly left the basement, and probably the motel.

Once they were gone, Sho and I both turned our attention to the remaining Demon Halve. He was glaring at me, not even acknowledging Shoto, I wasn't sure he noticed him yet.

"Ya know, you just cost me nearly a million dollars." He said, clearly ticked off.

"Mortal money won't get you very far." I shot back. I wasn't wrong. Once he lives out his natural life, he'll be sent to Heaven and then probably eternal imprisonment because of stuff like this. Well he would if God wasn't feeling so freaking generous for some reason.

"It'll get me far enough." He said, crossing his arms and finally directing his attention to Sho.

He froze. His entire body going rigid as he looked at the duel haired Demon Halve. "Shoto?" He said in disbelief.

That's when Sho went stiff. Something seemed to click in the boys head. "Toya?"

'Well then.'

"I thought you said Toya went to Hell with your da- well, that he went to Hell." I said, noticing the glare I got from both boys when I nearly called the man who gave them life, a dad.

"You thought I gave in? That easily? Wow Shoto, I'm offended." He said, faining hurt. He didn't seem to be taking this very seriously.

"You up and left! What the hell was I supposed to think? I was five!" Shoto said, raising his voice. Seeing his brother was clearly affecting him. I grabbed his hand, trying to calm him down. I grabbed his left hand, knowing that that side of him was more unstable.

Sho took a deep breath when he felt my smaller hand in his. "Hear him out, okay?" I said softly to him. I didn't like seeing family fight. Well, I didn't like seeing anyone fight. Probably the Angel in me.

"That's a tad bit gay, don't ya think little bro? I feel like that's a sin. I'm pretty sure that's a sin." Toya said thoughtfully.

This time, I was the one to glare. "First off, we aren't bound to the same rules as regular mortals. Second off, it was a mistranslation!" I said, this time my voice raising.

I felt a tug on my hand and turned to see Shoto with an amused 'told you so' face. I sighed and rolled my eyes at him. "You two are ridiculous. Talk it out like brothers already. We kind of have other places to be." I told them.

I knew that no matter what, we'd have to tag Toya and send him up to Heaven, but that didn't mean Sho didn't deserve to get some answers first.

"I didn't go to Hell or become human. I ran away. Simple as that." Toya said. "Now, if you don't mind, I should probably get going."

He flicked his hand and suddely there was a huge line of blue flames. They were so hot, that just being within a few feet of them hurt. They were growing as well, scaring the absolute crap out of me. I was to young to die and fail now. I had shit to do before I got stuck up there with God and all the other stuck up Angels.

"Fuck. C'mon little Angel, we have to get out of here." Sho said, pulling me along with him as he lead us both out of the motel.

"Well this was a disaster."
