It didn't take long for me to actually get to the police station but once I was right there, I didn't feel as confident anymore as I was before. All of the sudden it felt dangerous and wrong to get in there but was there really any other way?

Okay....

Now what?

Why did I thought this would be easy or a good idea?

He could arrest me!

He could also ibform Eraserhead about this...

Damn it.

But I need ny costume back and he needs information.

Still feels a bit wrong.

I hope this isn't some kind if blackmailing.

Oh jesus please help me survive this.

When I arrived in front of the police station I was a bit nerves and to be honest I didn't had the same confidence I had when I had a mask on as well as a voice changer. This was just different. Still there was no way I wouldn't go in since I had to basically get back my stuff. 

It took me a couple of minutes to breathe in and out to prepare myself mentally for whatever was about to happen before I just went inside the police station. 

Nothing really going on here....

Well it's not like I came here because I wanted too.... not that true tho.

I looked around for a bit but as soon as I stepped in, I was actually greeted by two police officers sitting there at the reception.

Police officer: Hello kiddo, how can I help you?

Me: Can you call Tsukauchi over?

Police officer: Oh you know him?

Me: Acquaintance to be precise.

Police officer 2: Ama get him. Wait a second.

Me: Sure no hurry at all.

Just like that this police officer left me there alone with the other one and I could tell it was a quiet night. This honestly wasn't surprising since nights like these were not unusal anymore after I cleared the streets in this district from who knows what villain and other stuff like drug dealer where out here.

Police officer: Say I am currious what are you doing out on the streets this late kiddo?

Me: Oh I lost something and Tsukauchi has it. It's important to me.

Police officer: Oh I see.

So he didn't tell them about me at all?

Looks like they will not arrest me for now.

Who knows how long tho...

I better stay vigilant and observe for now.

I really don't want to get in prision...

WAIT!

What can he do against me tho?

I am fightin quirkless!

....

Dude... I broke in... I stole information and I hacked...

Whelp that much to I have a clean west.

As I was thinking about the stuff the police could have about me, the other police officer as well as Tsukauchi came to the front. It was exactly that moment when Tsukauchi saw me that he immediately guided me over to his own room. It was a bit strange how fast he reacted but I knew that the way he acted he didn't spill my secret and he for sure didn't intended on doing so either.

Me: Ahm Sir?

Tsukauchi: Wait a moment.

That was really all he said before we entered his room and then him closing the door behind me as well as locking it.

Me: Sir?

Tsukauchi: Parallax, please continue calling me like you did in the past.

Me: Okay detective.

Tsukauchi: I can't believe that a child is a vigilante.

Me: I am 16 not a child.

Tsukauchi: Still underaged.

Me: That is true.

Tsukauchi: Why tho?

Me: Why what? You really have to be more precise.

Tsukauchi: Why be a vigilante?

Me: Reasons.

Tsukauchi: Your mother?

Me: Not really. I just needed a place to escape and this district used to be a lot worse. Making it safe just felt right to me.

Tsukauchi: But by doing that you are endangering yourself kid.

Me: And what does that matter when my life was nearly over each and every day? 

Tsukauchi: That room.

Me: Yes. 

Tsukauchi: Still what where you thinking going out as Parallax?

Me: Well I thought I could make the most of my useless life as a quirkless kid and at least give it a meaning. That was what I thought.

Tsukauchi: And now?

Me: I enjoy doing it and the people know me so I can't stop now.

Tsukauchi: *sigh* You are giving me such a headache.

Me: Sorry.

Tsukauchi: Do your parents, my friends know about this?

Me: Eraserhead and Mic?

Tsukauchi: Yes.

Me: No.

Tsukauchi: *sigh*

Me: And I do not plan on telling them a thing.

Tsukauchi: I understand. 

Me: Hm?

Tsukauchi: I will not tell them anything about this. You helped me and this police station out a lot in the past. This is only fair.

Me: Thank you.

Tsukauchi: You sure you don't know Nezu tho.

Me: No, why?

Tsukauchi: You really act like him.

Me: How so?

Tsukauchi: The cup of tea you are prepareing?

Me: You said act like you usually do and this tea isn't soo bad.

Tsukauchi: Kid, this tea is only here because of you and Nezu.

Me: Oh... Well it is some fine tea.

He was right. I knew that the tea in his room were because of Nezu when that rat decide to come over and find a vigilante which he tried in the past and then also that times when he needed help from Nezu. However since I wasn't a big fan of coffee, I took a cup of tea whenever I would visit in the night and also leave a thank you note behind me. It was only polite to do so after all since he basically always had a thermos filled with hot water for me whenever I would come.

Tsukauchi: *sigh*

Me: Anyways, my costume.

Tsukauchi: In the box over there. Me and my co-workers put them in it and everything we thought would be important to you.

Me: Important stuff?

Tsukauchi: Yes.

What in the world is he talking about?

What important stuff?

I don't even own things.

What can he mean?

The costume is the only thing I am holding on too.

Is there something else or am I just overthinking it?
