"Police have reported a child from U-A's hero class has gone missing three days ago. Police received this information when one of the students reported to the teacher that he witnessed her leave the premise. It is suspected that she was possibly being threaten given that she was recently adopted my a facility undergoing a current investigation for breaking several laws. Police have pushed a nationwide amber alert for the child but lack photo to describe her, so please if you see something, say something. Also, a reward will be given to the person if-"

Soon the restaurant owner changed the channel  the television  to something more entertaining.

You sighed at the efforts that U-A high were doing in order to find you. You knew that by leaving Aizawa would react but not at this scale, considering that in the short amount of time you knew him he seemed to be quite a reserved guy.

You turned your attention to the  food in front of you and began playing with it. This combination of coffee, agar, and cream that made the coffee jelly in front of you was an extraordinarily simple dessert and actually your favorite but given the circumstances, you couldn't enjoy it properly.

"Ah honey," a server asked causing you to look up towards her and noticed the look of pity on her face, "You haven't touched your dessert, is everything okay."

"Yeah," you replied distantly, "Mind if I get it to go."

"U-umm, S-s-ure..." she replied as she grabbed the dessert and walked to the counter to package it.

You turned your head away from her and focused more on the outside world.

"What makes us good? What makes us evil?" you thought to yourself, "I want to be good, and yet I was evil for what I did. And if I couldn't move on from what I did that day, how was he able to cope?"

You soon turned your attention back towards the diner to see that the woman who was suppose to be packing your dessert was on the phone. You soon got up from the bar and placed cash down for the item and quickly made your way out of the restaurant.

"Wait miss!" the waiter called out causing you to push her body far away from yours.

Startling the customers around and having some of the staff showing concerned for her, you quickly made your exit and quickly made away from the scene before the police were able to get there.

You knew that there was no where in this area where you would be able to hide from the watchful eyes of the citizens, the police, and heroes associated with U-A. You needed to remain hidden in the shadows.

You ran into the alleyways, navigating through this maze of darkness and spaces of villainy.

"Evil can be fostered by dehumanization, diffusion of responsibility, obedience to authority, unjust systems, group pressure, moral disengagement, and anonymity, to name a few..." you recollected, "when we ask why people become heroic, no one knows. Yet class 1-A believes it is because it is to put a smile on people's faces...that one was rich. It could be that heroes have more compassion or empathy;who knows."

Without paying attention, I bumped into someone and felt someone hit me in the front. I blinked and noticed the person was a small girl with bluish, off-white hair, messy and unkempt, which is parted in the middle of her forehead, almost reaching down to her waist. I continued to blink to her a bit lost.

"Well Eri, I guess it is a good day that you tried to escape,"

"Eri..." you thought at you glanced down at the girl out of fear. Fear is as ubiquitous as sunlight on these cracked streets. You couldn't breath, it felt as if someone was choking you. Your heart was racing and all you wanted to do was curl up into a ball and wait for someone to save you. But no one would, no one was there. A choked cry for help forced itself up your throat, and you felt a drop run down her cheek. It seemed as if this was the end of the road for you...

"It has been a while since we last saw each other...dear sister,"

"Overhaul..."
