Aizawa looked at a sheet of paper than back at his class. "Surebu, do you have any notes for anyone here?" everyone seemed shocked, including Surebu.

"With all respect Aizawa but, why are you asking me this?" she asked once again shocking everyone. She was like a completely different person compared to the Psychopath they just had to capture.

"You're the one that experienced this first hand. You'd be better at knowing what they did right or wrong," Aizawa explained taking a seat. "Besides, it was your tactic that seemed to work the best out there," Aizawa smiled causing Surebu to do the same. He wasn't wrong. Her plan did work perfectly. "Go ahead and explain the situation they placed themselves and each other in," given full permission Surebu walked out in front of the class and took a deep breath.

"Bakugo allowed his rage to take hold and got lost within the first stretch there, as planned," Bakugo growled at her statement, but that didn't stop her. "Kaminari and Kirishima. You two need to learn to take your own path in some situations. If all you do is follow after Bakugo, then you'll never become real heroes," Kirishima and Kaminari looked down the statement. She was right. "Not to mention that if the enemy is just standing there not doing anything than obviously something is going on. You need to stop and think Kirishima. Don't rush into the fight without knowing what is around you."

"That could've killed him," Bakugo growled out. Everyone turned to look at him. "If his quirk wasn't activated, or it was anyone else," Surebu held up her hand telling Bakugo to stop. "Don't you act all high and mighty, because you aren't."

"I know. I'm not the best hero, or the smartest academic in this room. Nowhere near as good, but I'm not stupid. I always have a tactical advantage, because I always have a plan," Surebu grinned at Bakugo's angry face. "But my plan seemed to work so well that I had separated every group to the point that none of you stood a chance and messed with each one of you in my own way," she stepped forwards. "Witch reminds me," she paused. "Don't listen to anything your capture says. When about to be taken in the villain will spout anything to distract you, or even make you feel sorry for them. You let them have their monologue about vengeance in court or questioning. Don't let them spout nonsense," the room became silent until Momo spoke up.

"So you were lying to us?" she seemed hurt by the thought of Surebu even daring to lie about something like that, but she also understood that she had to play the role of the villain and had to do so.

"No," suddenly Momo was wishing she misheard. "I didn't lie about anything out there," she didn't mishear, and she instantly regrated it being an honest truth. Surebu looked at Izuku. "I really don't believe anyone in here ever thought I was their friend, though I did try," silence fell through the room at her words. No one knew how to react. Not even the teachers understood what to do. "If we were friends than you wouldn't have hurt me the way you did," she smiled kindly, as if discussing the weather or something in class. Next she looked to Momo. "I honestly do think you all expected me to fall to the villains, even though in complete truth it wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for the way I was mistreated," her smile never left her face, but tears did. "And there was always a reason for my actions, and I always did my English work. Its' just no one cared about that," Momo thought back to one of their English classes, and it was true. It was the only lesson Surebu actually participated and attempted to do her work.

"I never noticed," Momo mumbled suddenly feeling guilt fill her mind.
"No one did," Surebu stated before continuing. "I really did struggle just to write notes in class. I really did hate how it felt to know I was the dumbest in the class, or think it at that time at least," her smile faded as she looked up in thought. "And I really was not looking for any damned apology. It was way too late for that. Especially since I had already attempted to kill myself over your mistakes," suddenly horror filled the room. That was the only thing Momo needed to be a lie, but it wasn't. "And it was that attempt that caused the villains to get their hands on me in the first place. It also happened that because of that I owed them my life," she smiled again and looked at Bakugo. "You should watch your wording Bakugo. One misinterpreted sentence can lead to suicide. I leant that first hand," she sated leaning forwards with her hands cupped behind her back, smile never leaving her face.

Bakugo starred at her in horror as what she'd said processed. "You heard that?" Bakugo practically whispered. She heard him say that back then and took it so seriously that it played to the villain's game.

"No I didn't," Surebu stated calmly. Bakugo looked at her confused. "Only activated my quirk at the wrong time and leant it instead," she had pulled out her knife and began to inspect it as if it was a piece of expensive jewellery. "Hate that damn quirk. It really loves to sneak up on me," she chuckled a bit as she walked over to Aizawa. She handed him the knife and bowed polity. "I'll take my leave. I think I need to see Recovery Girl," she told holding her ribs.

Aizawa opened his mouth as if to ask why, but she skipped past him to the monitoring screen and fiddled with a few buttons. The screen moved into a rewind and played a single moment over and over. As this played Surebu walked away yelling out the words "instant replay" before she was gone.

The scene that played was when she was being chased by Izuku. The moment she jumped off the roof. She landed with her ribs caught on one of the balconies before she fell to the ground coughing up blood. She only just managed to get up and sit down before Izuku jumped down.

All Izuku could think of was how he didn't even notice. Now that he thought over it, the signs were all there. The blood on the floor and in the corner of her mouth. It was all there. Izuku clutched the book she gave him. He wasn't ever getting rid of it.

Then there was Momo's group. None of them even began to notice. How did Surebu keep it hidden? How in the world did she manage to continue when she may have broken ribs and internal bleeding? Then everyone remembered. This is Surebu they were thinking of. No one could even scrape the surface of what she was capable of, and that alone was terrifying.

"Guess I finally found out how the villains got a hold of her," Aizawa suddenly spoke. Everyone looked over at him. "Kurogiri would've opened up a portal to stop her from ending her life, and she did as told to pay them back for saving her. Knew she wasn't an actual villain. Guess I was the only one who knew though," Aizawa looked back at his class with a look of disappointment. "Dismissed," he stated walking out. He couldn't believe that the students he was teaching were so quick to judge someone he was responsible for. He felt the guilt, and he hated it.

Once Aizawa left the room, some ended up in tears. They knew they were all to blame. All they needed to do was talk to the girl, but instead they avoided her to the point they couldn't tell she was dying inside. To the point she was mentally gone. But Bakugo, he was trying his hardest to push the guilt away. He was the one to believe she was a villain to begin with. He was the one to turn the others against her. He was the one who said she should've killed herself. He really was to blame.

At that point Izuku thought of something. "Momo?" he practically yelled out causing everyone in the room to jump. Momo turned to him. "She told you she wasn't able to read or write?" Momo nodded at his question. Izuku looked down at his book. "Then how...?" he trailed off before finally opening the book and reading the first page.
Izuku's Hero Notes.

Written by: Shinsou and Surebu.
Hope you like it!

Suddenly Izuku's face paled. She got Shinsou to write it all for her just so Izuku could have these notes...
