Izumi stroked Tomura's hair as he slept. She both his and Dabi's warmth as the two of them curled up into her on the queen sized bed they'd occupied for the night. The night was eerily quiet echoing the soft sounds of the forest like a soft lullaby. Despite the comfortable and peaceful surroundings she found it impossible to sleep.

Using her quirk she lifted the two up and away from her so she could slip out of bed before setting them down to rights again. She struggled to hold in the giggle of amusement when they started cuddling into each other.

"What I wouldn't give for a camera." She murmured, and tugged on a robe before exiting the room. She walked down the stairs, taking time to admire her new surroundings. As per her orders the league had rid themselves of all their previous hideouts; her apartment, the bar, Nakahara's lab and the nomu warehouse.

Before doing so she instructed each and every area, minus her apartment and the bar as they were on lockdown from the police, to be completely excavated of their property. This included any and all of All for One's databanks and storage, as well as the doctor's full research. In the databanks Izumi had found this cabin in the feudal part of Japan, owned by one "Jin Hinata" and deduced it was yet another hideaway.

"Perfect training area," Izumi thought taking a gander at the wide open windows that revealed the mountainous ground. "I should have one of them scout the area for any civilizations."

"Mumbling to yourself again?" Ace asked stepping from the kitchen and causing her to jump a little. "Forgive me, your highness, I didn't mean to startle you." He held up the cup of coffee he'd been making. "Couldn't sleep."

"That makes two of us." She murmured and sighed. "We managed to secure a place to live, but things are going to get tight without my financials."

"Isn't that why you donated a portion each week into that fake donation account?" He questioned. "For just such emergencies?"

"That'll hold us for a time, but not for good. We need to find a more permanent solution or we'll sink before even getting the chance to move again." She sighed heavily and hugged herself.

"Feeling regrets?" He asked sipping at his coffee.

"Too many to count." She admitted and rubbed her arms. "All Might once said if I followed my heart and put everything I have into something I'll have no regrets." She laughed bitterly. "What the hell does he know about such things I wonder. I did exactly what he told me and all I've been doing is regretting every decision I've ever made."

"You're right, what does he know." He motioned her away from the window patting her head. "Take it from this old geezer,"

"You're not that old Ace." She turned her head up to him and he leaned down smiling at her.

"I'm old enough to have regrets of my own, Karma." He set his coffee down and turned to put both his hands on her shoulders. "The one thing I don't regret, is tossing my lot in with you."

"Oh really?" She raised a brow and smirked at him. "Why is that?"

"Just look at the response you got..." He pulled back and help up papers he'd been reading before she came downstairs. All of them had her face plastered all over. The various titles read: "Top U.A. student turns villain," "The Rising Star Falls," and "Corrupted Student reveals All Might's weakness."

"Boy aren't I popular..." She picked up one at random and skims the story.

"Majority of them are trying to deduce whether or not your confession before your fall was truth or fiction." Ace laughs. "Only All Might as ever delivered such results to the press. You hit all the right triggers Karma. Giran is bound to get plenty of requests from other villains to join the cause."
