~~

Hours past, and the four were finally at the edge of the forest.

"This is where the training camp was?" Satsuki questioned.

"Yeah. Be careful, guys."

"Oh, come on. Careful is my middle name! That's right! Satsuki Careful Asui!"

"You don't have a middle name, Suki."

"Aww, c'mon, Kar! Let me have this!"

The tailed girl started chirp up.

"Guys?"

"Suki, sweetheart, we are on a mission. We can't get caught."

"Guys?"

"Could you both shut up? I want to hurry!"

"Guys!"

"What?!"

"We just got caught."

Sure enough, standing behind Yoko, was the man they tried to avoid.

Aizawa.

"Hey, princess! How ya doin'?"

"I feel alot better, touya! Thanks!"

Eri had been staying in the same little cabin the scared man had brought her to.

Two months had passed, and she was finally getting better. Walking without falling over every three steps. Her quirk was back to normal.

But she still had those nightmares. Just about every night, now. Some were worse than other.

Some nights, eri would wake up crying and in a cold sweat. Others, she'd be screaming, and trying to cut herself.

After the first night this happened, touya had taken out any sharp objects he could in that room. But that doesn't the poor girl from trying to hurt herself.

She never talks about the nightmares, so touya never knows how to help.

Eri liked to have shigiraki around. Being as that was her uncle, they had a special bond. Especially since the rest of their family was gone.

"You look alot better. Are you ready?"

"Ready for what?"

"To go back. You can't stay here forever."

"Yes, I can! I don't want to go back! Chisaki is still out there! The 'heros' failed me once, I won't let them do it again!"

"Eri, being here can you in alot of trouble."

"I don't care!"

"Okay, if I find chisaki, will you go back with the heros?"

Nothing.

"Princess, I'm a villian. I can kill him. The heros can't kill people, but I can. Then he can never hurt you ever again."

"You can do that?"

"Yes."

"No. I'm not going back. No matter what you do."

"Why not? It's not safe for you here."

"Because the second I go back I will never get to see you and unko shigi again!"

"Princess, I promise shigi and I will find a way to see you. I mean, look at toga and twice. We got twice the medical help he needs and we still see him every now and then. And toga? We wanted her to be happy, and shes happy with people her own age. And we always make time for her. You will be no different."

"But-"

"Don't you miss your friends? Don't you want to know how Suki and kari or doing? Or if kota's okay? And what about your dad? Don't you miss your dad?"

"Well, I mean, maybe..."

"I told a UA girl that you're safe. Asked her to tell the heros. They're not gonna quit looking for j
. Ever."

"I don't want to go back!"

Eri ran toward the door and stopped. She stood still for a moment and started crying.

Touya got up to see what happened. She ran behind him and held tightly to his arm.

They were here.
