Once Pixie calmed down Bakugo put her down and she walked besides him with her arms crossed and a frown on her face. She was huffing and puffing and Bakugo was trying so hard not to laugh. It was kind of adorable. The second Bakugo realized that he shook the thought out of his head.
"Are you done being crazy now?" Bakugo said pointedly. Pixie dropped her arms and looked at Bakugo with fear in her eyes. Bakugo looked back at her and he got goosebumps, what the hell is going on? They could see the mall in the distance and Pixie stopped. Bakugo realized she stopped and started to walk back to her. He noticed she was fiddling with the ring on her finger. Great, who knows what she's heard.
Pixie still had that look of fear on her face and it seemed to get worse. Bakugo tapped Pixie on the shoulder and she slowly turned towards him. "They're here." she said coldly. Bakugo looked around confused and started to say 'nobody's here' until he saw a blonde girl in the distance. She was standing there twirling her hair and she had a devilish look on her face. Pixie saw her too and tensed up.
"Who the hell are you?!" Bakugo screamed to the girl in the distance. She started to laugh and her face twisted up. She was a completely different person than the detective described. "I'm here for you Ellie." The girl shouted and started to twirl around while laughing. Who the hell is this girl? Pixie stood there trying to focus on her breathing. She couldn't hear what Bakugo was saying to her, all she heard was the humming in her head. Was this that girls quirk?
The girl started to walk towards them and Bakugo took action. He pulled Pixie away and they started to run. Bakugo was running behind the mall trying to find another a way inside. Normally Bakugo would stay and fight her, but he didn't need to get in trouble again.
Pixie finally snapped out of her daze. She couldn't hear the humming anymore, maybe they got far enough away. Pixie looked up to Bakugo and could hear the concern in his thoughts. Why is he protecting me? Pixie let go of Bakugo's hand and started to walk on her own. She was trying not to listen to his thoughts anymore, but couldn't turn it off. She wanted to know if the other girl was around, with her quirks disabled she was useless.
Bakugo was staring at Pixie with a concerned look on his face. "Bakugo I have to leave." Pixie started walking towards the train and Bakugo was following her. "You don't have to come with me, none of this is your problem." Pixie looked down sounding defeated. After all this time they had found her, how did they do it? Her worst nightmare had just become a reality.
Bakugo frowned at her and stopped her. "Why are you being more stupid than usual? You sound like a loser. And don't tell me what to do." Bakugo got on the train and was waiting for her in the doorway. Pixie got on the train with him, hoping he would leave, she didn't want to involve him in her drama.
"You really are an idiot Bakugo. I can take care of this myself you know." Pixie sat down in a huff next to him. He started to laugh then looked at her face and stopped. "Shut up." He growled. The train ride back to the city was quiet. Pixie was still searching for the girl, did she really escape her?
They were about to get off the train when Pixie noticed something in the seat behind her. It was a music box. She opened it up and it was playing the song from before. Pixie gasped and closed the lid quickly. Bakugo turned around and looked at the box in her hands. "What is that?" He said while snatching it from her hands and walking off the train. Pixie protested but he ignored it.
At the back of the train the girl sat there smiling to herself. She was waiting for the right moment, and for that boy to leave her alone. She knew she had to keep things quiet or the Boss wouldn't like it. Although she's not sure what would make him more mad, losing her or making a scene. She decided to call him and let him make the decision.
Bakugo was still holding the music box and Pixie was staring at him with anger. "Bakugo please just give it back, I have to call somebody and give this to them." He handed it back to her and put his hands in his pockets. "So what the hell is it, it plays some stupid song." Pixie stared at it again and looked around. She knew she couldn't go home. She dug around in her bag and found her phone. She was calling Mr Aizawa to let him know what happened.
Pixie tried to keep it a secret especially since Bakugo was there. He was trying not to listen to her conversation but couldn't help himself. It sounded like she called Mr Aizawa, but why would she do that? He still couldn't figure out the connection and he didn't want to ask, he would sound too interested and didn't wanna come off that way.
"I have to go to the police station, you don't have to come with me I'll be fine." Pixie started to walk off in the wrong direction and Bakugo followed her. "You're going the wrong way, Stupid." Bakugo caught up to Pixie and she stopped. "Ugh fine you can come with me, but you don't know anything about what's going on, OK?" Bakugo thought to himself 'yeah well I really don't know anything that's going on.'
They were almost at the station and Pixie was constantly looking around making sure she wasn't being followed. Bakugo wanted to know what she was so scared of and why that crazy girl was following her. Whoever she was it really freaked Pixie out. "So, do you know who that girl was?" Bakugo said trying to make conversation. Pixie nodded her head no. "I've never seen her before in my life." He looked at Pixie dumbfounded. "Are you serious? Is this some kind of joke then?" He was starting to get angry, none of it made any sense.
Pixie sighed and stopped just outside the police station. "The less you know the better, honestly Bakugo. Just don't worry about it." She went to walk towards the doors and Bakugo grabbed her arm and stopped her. "Just don't get yourself hurt idiot." He let her arm go and she walked through the doors. He was standing there watching her walk away, was he going to wait there for her? Detective Pearl greeted Pixie with whispers and started to lead her towards his office. Pixie looked back at the door one more time and Bakugo was still standing there.
