Aizawa walked into the room, getting himself a cup of coffee, but Hizashi Yamada, also known as Present Mic, followed in behind, looking confused.

"Saku? She's still around?" Yamada asked in shock.

"She's working with the League of Villains"

"Since when?!"

"I don't know"

"Aren't you gonna go save her?"

Aizawa looked up at the loud blond, his eyebrows furrowed together at the suggestion. "What?"

"She's obviously not a villain, there's gotta be a reason she's there. But, if you go get her, I'm sure she'll forget all about being a villain! Maybe even-"

I made my body visible, sitting on a table pushed up against the wall with one leg up, my arm hooked around it, and my other leg dangling.

"You two..."

Yamada jumped, stopping before he could finish his sentence, and while he was surprised, Aizawa was quick to jump into action, his scarf shooting out and wrapping around me. But when he saw it was only me he let it drop and go back around his neck.

"Saku?!" Yamada exclaimed.

"Hi," my eyes went from Yamada to Aizawa, a serious look on my face. "I came to tell you the truth"

"About how you feel?" Yamada joked, pointing fingers at Aizawa. My eye twitched and he held his hands up in defence, backing up towards the door. "I guess we'll talk more later then"

He ran off and I put my attention back on Aizawa. "What truth?" He asks.

"This is really hard for me to say. I know you can keep a secret but I could still lose my job for this, then this would all be for nothing-"

"Tamira"

"Right. I'm not a villain, Yamada was right"

"I was?!" A voice boomed from outside the door.

"Hizashi!" I snap in a scolding tone.

"Alright, alright, I'm gone"

"He sure hasn't changed"

Yamada was always loud, and he had been another one of my best friends back in high school. I wasn't as close to him as Aizawa, I always found Yamada a little too loud. But that didn't keep us from being close friends.

"You're not a villain?" Aizawa asks, getting my thoughts back on track.

"I was working undercover for the police. I became a villain, sort of, to find evidence on other villains to give the police a chance to arrest them. But then the LOV was made, and I somehow got roped into it. I'm feeding the police small details, details Shigaraki wouldn't notice were leaked. I'm slowly but surely piecing together their puzzle"

"Why not do it all at once?"

"You shouldn't have to ask that. He's smart, he'd know almost immediately if I gave away his location"

"But you gave me a location-"

"Not an exact one. Shigaraki knows the police will find him eventually, if I gave you the address he'd realize it was all a little too quick. Then I'd be dead. This way, they have evidence, and they have me on the inside, so they know when to attack. When to finally stop him. It's really confusing, but it's kept me alive so far. I've tried not questioning it"

"Why not tell me sooner?"

"I didn't want you getting involved, although part of that was my fault. I did show up at your place, and I offered you the drink. I guess the whole villain thing was sort of getting to me"
