I didn't get a lot of sleep that night. How could I? There were so many factors I had to mull over. If I lived with Tsu, I was putting her entire family in danger. If I didn't live with Tsu, I'd be breaking her heart.

I wasn't even close to being strong enough to deal with the Sinister Six by myself, and if I let the pro heroes handle it, they'd either die or simply detain the Six.

There was no way I was going to let the Six get away with what they'd done. They killed my father, they killed several pro heroes, they destroyed U.A., and who knows what else they were planning to do?

Everything they had some had been at least somewhat successful, and it was all because of their head, their big brain, Cyberghost. He was the one who orchestrated it, he was the one who killed my father, I was sure of it. The Metal Demon wasn't quite so cruel from what I gathered when talking to the group that fought him.

That settles it. I knew what I was going to say to Shigaraki. But what would I tell Tsu and the others? They wouldn't be happy if I worked with the League of Villains, no matter how I phrases it. Not even Tsu would support me, I knew that.

" Alex-Chan, are you awake? " Tsu suddenly asked, snapping me out of my thought process.

" Yeah. Are you? " I asked a little drowsily.

She giggled, assuming I was joking, but I was actually just that tired that I'd ended up asking a silly question.

" Look, I thought about what you said earlier. I love you with all my heart, which is why it was hard for me to listen to what you were saying, about not living with me. It sounded so perfect, but it would be wrong to endanger my family like that, you are right... " She said to me.

I kissed her head, " You can still stay at the mansion though, right? At least for a while. We won't be separated for some time. How about we have a date tomorrow, since we don't have other things to attend to? I have an idea I think you'll like. "

She liked that the idea of just having a date, regardless of what I had planned for us. Finally at peace, I managed to get to sleep shortly afterwards.

We both woke up at the same time the next morning rather abruptly as we heard a series of crashing sounds and a sound I never thought I'd hear: Bakugou laughing.

Knowing something must be wrong, we both got up and ran outside our bedroom door and to the top of the stairs, shouting down to see what was wrong. We hadn't thought about the fact that it was obvious we came from the same room, but who cares at this point, really? Mina was going away so...

Midoriya was getting up off the floor near the bottom of the stairs as I asked, " What happened? Why is Bakugou smiling?! "

" Can't I just be happy for the sake of being happy? " He asked, still chuckling to himself.

Sighing, Todoroki informed us, " Midoriya fell down the stairs trying to get down too quick. "

I stifled a laugh and Tsu poked me in the ribs discreetly. She then asked why everyone was gathered near the entrance.

Mina appeared from the crowd, a bittersweet smile on her face as she was dressed in a school uniform for a school I wasn't familiar with, but Tsu was. She nodded.

" Seiai Academy. Today is the day then... " She didn't hesitate to jump over the banisters and land gracefully on the floor like a frog, before running over to Mina to glomp her.

" I'm going to miss you Mina-Chan! " She said as she started getting emotional.

Mina's eyes were only glistening a little as she'd likely already expended all of her tears earlier. " I'll miss you too... We're going to text every day and meet up every weekend or so, ok?! "
