Hmph. Amateurs. She walked calmly away from the building, her backpack full of diamonds with her sweats pressed on top muffling and hiding the stolen materials. Sirens sounded behind her but she wasn't worried. They'd never suspect her. From ahead of her more cars came, sirens blaring, but as she stepped aside they flew past. A small smirk on her face, Saya continued, pleased with her night's work.

-Police Department-

The cameras clearly captured the man stealing the diamonds. He was short and his baggy clothing hid his physique. He was dressed in black sweats along with a dark mask over his face. His hair was hidden by a black beanie. Not even his eyes were distinguishable behind his reflexive lenses but his quirk was obvious. Just by placing his hand on the security device it froze and with a punch it shattered. The same happened to the cases and registers. Everything, even the cash, was taken. This was the first time they'd seen him in action, the hidden camera finally capturing the ice thief.

"Damn that guy." The police sergeant growled. "That's the fourth one in two weeks."

"We might need to take this out of house." The second in charge mumbled.

"Yes."

-Hero Office-

The video was playing on the screen in a hero office, five heroes watching as it finished with the thief running off into the night.

"There have been three more this week. We need someone who can bring results."

Everyone started talking, debating what the best strategy was. They were all relatively new heroes. Bakugo wanted to find and pulverize, Momo thought they should lay a trap, Ochaco wanted to help but with no real plan, Midoria was in the same boat as Ochaco. Shoto Todoroki alone had remained silent.

"Come on Todoroki, what's your problem? Afraid of facing someone with similar abilities to yours?"

"No." Shoto Todoroki said darkly. "We shouldn't do anything."

"What?! You coward Todoroki!"

"WE shouldn't do anything. I'll take care of this myself."

The others knew not to push it when Todoroki got like this and shrugged, leaving the room. All except for Katsuki Bakugo.

"Get out of here Bakugo."

"Like I'd listen to you." Bakugo countered. "I'm gonna catch that fucker."

"No. You won't. He's mine."

"Don't think that you can tell me what I can and can't do!" He yelled

"I told you, back off."

"Shut it half and half. I'll catch him first."

"We'll see." Todoroki rose and left, Bakugo leaving a moment later.

-The Woods-

Cash. That's all that matters right now. Saya was camping, no tent or anything, just herself under the stars. It was fine though, her quirk could keep her comfortable and she was very used to this. Despite her bag full of cash and the reserves in her bank account she preferred not to be in the city where others could easily find her.

It was late, surely past midnight, when her body froze and her eyes sprung open. Without a thought she used her quirk to melt the ice around her. Standing above her was a face she hadn't seen for more than ten years. He was the same but different, his face more angular than it used to be, his body tall and muscular, though not overly so - a young man instead of a child.

"Saya." He said, his voice matching the sadness in his eyes. It was so much deeper than she remembered. "I hoped it wouldn't be you."

Letting out a sigh she leaned back on her elbows and looked up at him with a wry smile.

"I'm sorry brother. You must be sooo disappointed." She teased. He frowned down at her, not amused.

"How could you resort to something as obvious as this? They're after you now."

"No they aren't. They think I'm a guy. Hah."

"I know better."

"Yeah, but you're my big brother." He glared harder.

"Where are the diamonds?"

"Gone." Silence. "You going to turn me in? Be a dick just like dad?"

His face contorted into a grimace as she looked up with sad bright grey eyes. With a frustrated sigh he sank to the ground next to her, running a hand through his hair as he'd always used to do when trying to make a tough decision.

"You know I don't want to turn you in, but you have to stop. Haven't you done enough?" Scooting closer to him she rested her head on his shoulder.

"I love you Shoto. I guess I can take a break for a while... if it means that much to you."

He ruffled her hair.

"You too Saya."

With a flick of a finger Shoto lit the logs on the woodpile. The happy crackling filled the surrounding area with light and warmth as they relaxed together in happy silence.

"So how'd you find me?"

"I knew what I was looking for."

"But you haven't seen me since I was a kid. What if you accused some innocent woman by accident?"

"I'd know you anywhere, no matter how old you are."

"Hmm." You too Shoto

"You could have called if you needed cash. I would have helped."

"No I was fine. Besides…"

"It's been how many years?" He asked sadly, understanding at least a little.

"14."

"I'm glad that you've been alright. I wondered if you were still alive."

"Sorry I left you to deal with dad on your own. I should have taken you with me."

"It's really alright. If I'd left I wouldn't be where I am now. I just wish you'd stayed as well. You'd make a great hero."

"Hah!"

The rest of the night was relaxing. The two reminisced about good times, sharing stories and asking questions while omitting the subject of their father. Saya did find out that their mother was doing slightly better - Shoto visited her on occasion. Their older siblings were doing well also...well at least the ones who were left. Around sunrise the two fell asleep around the fire. The following morning they exchanged numbers, grinned, hugged, and parted ways. It had been much too long.
