CHAPTER START---

---1 AM...

Horizon was sitting patiently behind his desk in his office at Central Hospital, staring at the laptop in front of him.

His keyboard was pushed to the side along with the monitor on his desk, they were usually what he'd use, connected to Japan's medical database and Nezu's supercomputer back at UA.

Allowing him to run simulations and scout patients from all across the country to be sent here, to the Miracle Suite.

Checking his phone he sees it's 1 AM, his private client would be here in just over an hour, he now has all his clients meeting him here and is using the hospital instead of meeting them at hotels and such.

His eyes glance back to the laptop, seeing the files almost transferred out from the data drive connected to the side of it via an adapter.

He'd been careful with this, inserting a villain's hardware into any computer is dangerous. So he bought a fresh laptop and didn't connect it to anything before plugging it in.

He also broke the webcam that came installed onto it, just in case. The last thing he needs is to plug this into his phone or his actual computer.

He's sure Nezu's security can easily handle it, but the risk simply wasn't worth it.

While Horizon sat patiently in his office he leans back and unlocks his phone. He opens it to see the 'Future Heroes' group chat running wild as 1A and 1B students are discussing Aoyama's betrayal.

He looks to the group chat icon, seeing what was the picture of everyone at the summer camp already replaced to get rid of the traitor.

Skimming what the rapid conversation was discussing, it was mostly about people being unable to sleep, even after detective Tsukauchi had rushed over to question everyone else, and the teachers turned the dorms upside down in one more search.

Looking at his direct messages he sees one from Nezu, confirming that there wasn't a second traitor, at least not a knowing one.

He sees a slew of questions from fellow students about the whole situation.

No messages from Sero, because he knew Horizon best among all the students.

And a concerned message from Momo, asking if he was all right.

'I'm fine,' he sends her a fast reply and can't help but shake his head. 'Did you really think diaper boy can hurt me, seriously?'

'Not at all,' her reply was instant. 'I was simply asking how you are dealing with the betrayal from someone so close to us. Some of the others aren't taking it well at all, it's quite a scary thought after all...'

'It really doesn't bother me, I expected this on some level, that's why I wear the visor. You idiots gave him all the info about yourselves and by extension your families, you should be worried, not me.'

Momo types for a while, then deletes the message, then send a new one, 'you're right. I suppose that's why so many of us can't sleep, we're all just here trying to help each other feel safe.'

"What the fuck does that mean?" He asks himself. "Did all these losers dogpile in the common room or something?"

'What do you mean?' he sends her.

'All the girls are having a sleepover in my room at the moment, learning about Aoyama was, a lot.'

Horizon's new laptop beeps as the data drive finally opened up, spewing dozens of folders onto his screen.

He glances back down at his phone to see Momo typing another message and interrupts her, 'hero work, gotta go,' before putting his phone down.

"Ok, let's see what we've got here," Horizon begins sorting out the folders. Finding file after file of recorded audio from Aoyama's belt.

"Recordings.

Recordings.

Recordings.

All useless garbage, Aoyama wasn't around to hear anything critical, and definitely nothing that can hurt me.

All For One had already spread information about Weld making my life annoying, nothing I can't overcome with just one more slash...but what the fuck is this..."

Horizon finally gets to a file simply titled 'Hero Public Safety Commission,' and his interest is piqued.

"What the fuck are these names," he sees dozens of folders within this folder, all labeled with things he'd never seen before.

"Are these all heroes?" he opens the first one.

"Raised and trained by the commission to..." Horizon shakes his head, hardly able to believe what he's reading. "To eliminate Pro Heroes that threaten the stability of society via corruption or heinous acts."

He's taken aback by this, not by the fact that this exists, but by the fact that it fell into his lap so easily.

"Why would this be here, it makes no sense to put this in the belt...unless," realization dawns on him. "All For One knew I'd find this, and he has something in here he wants me to see. Ok, show me..."

Sorting through all the files he sees dozens of Pro Heroes, most not household names. Just people that got into the top fifty and remained there until they retired or died.

A few were compromised and had to be put down by the others, but then he got to the people he could recognize.

"Kaina Tsutsumi, Lady Nagant. Mom was always a fan of yours...she thought it was suspicious when they said you just had a mental breakdown and got into a fight with other Pro Heroes.

Looks like according to this she...holy shit. Killed the previous President of the commission, and now she's in level 4 of Tartarus."

He looks a bit more, finding the final group, the current agents of the commission.

"Mind-Binder, well I remember what happened to him. Chrome, so you were Tetsutetsu's dad, and Shifter...guess meeting me didn't work out very well for all of you."

Horizon leans back in his chair and thinks it all over.

'So when they assembled a team to deal with 'Arsenal', they didn't just send Heroes, they sent a hit squad. If I wasn't there they definitely would have just killed her.

Mom knows too much about too many powerful people all around the world. International pressure to execute here would be too great for most countries to ever stand against.

Having this information from the commission itself is good, I can make sure they lose if they try to fuck me over, but I doubt it'll come to that.

I'm too valuable, they just need to be patient for me to solve their problems, and at this pace by the time I graduate, within one year of that I'll be #1, then they won't have any choice but to hand my parents over.

The contract is held and everyone wins...'

"I definitely can't let anyone know I have this, not until I eventually need a bit more leverage, prove that I can and will burn it all down if they try to fuck me over. Any sooner than that and they'll see me like a rabid dog that needs to be put down...I just need to play the part of a guard dog on a leash for them, at least for now."

Horizon lets out a frustrated groan, "why can't things just be fucking simple, do the job, get paid, and everyone moves on," he signs and continues digging only having one more file folder remaining.

'Keigo Takami,' he clicks it, and immediately freezes at what he sees.

"Hawks," he lets out in a low growl, then immediately catches himself. "No, revenge doesn't get me anything," he reminds himself.

"Hawks...is someone I'll be forced to work with, to play nice with, he's a top ten hero after all, and I'm Horizon, it's inevitable," he closes the file and begins sorting through the other data, sifting through it for anything about the League Of Villains.

'All For One, was that your plan? Make me kill Hawks or something so I end up in shit. Break my contract and get my parents killed, get me labeled a villain, and turn me against the Heroes...so you finally have someone competent on your team instead of the league of losers you're stuck with.

Nice try, but I'm a lot more, practical, than that. The last thing I want is to get any deeper in this Hero-Villain nonsense.'

A simple assessment, but sadly without the key pieces of information he lacks, the pieces All For One builds his master plan atop, even Horizon cannot figure out the vast and glorious scheme.

'Nothing about Shigaraki or his team, or where they make the Nomu, or how, useless shit---' his main computer alerts him of something, pulling his attention to it.

Horizon shuts off the laptop and checks the progress his simulations have made.

"Blah blah blah useless nonsense," Horizon mutters while looking at his research. "Bunch of useless shit about curing mental degenerative disease. Dementia, Alzheimer, I'd have to sink weeks into solving those and they can't even work for me.

I guess it makes sense since my brain patterns are similar enough to someone within the final stages of those, at least for the seconds that I'm blacked out.

But since I'm the only person in the world that can map the genome efficiently and accurately enough to solve it, I'll keep this in my pocket until I need leverage...'

"Alright," he looks down at his phone to check the time. "Time to get to work being a doctor, then just that party later..."
