Author's Note

I'm back and this didn't take as long to complete as I thought, but I'll be honest this chapter and the next were originally supposed to be the same chapter however I reached what felt like a stopping point for the chapter and it wound up really long without it. also for those wonder about the m rating a claim to harem the m rating is more for me being unrestricted there will be no graphic sexual content and the harem aspect is more some girls like deku and date him at the same time who the girls are I've already decided and no changes no matter how many requests I get its not the focus anyway it just happens, and finally I must say did expect this to get so popular after only one chapter so thank you. I do wish I had figured out how to turn off follower and favorite notifications before receiving over 50

Chapter 2: Several Life Changing Events

"Come on Izuku, you'll never be able to be a hero if you don't learn how to fight. We've been training for four years, but now that you're ten the really intense training starts now. Get back into your stance, and get ready for round two." Hisashi proclaimed to his son. Hisashi stood over his son wearing a white sleeveless shirt and green gym shorts. Izuku, dressed nearly identical to his father but with an All Might shirt, did as he was told and stood back up. Izumi and Inko stood outside the ring that the two boys were sparring in. Inko was wearing a teal tracksuit because she was only doing simple aerobic workouts to hopefully work off the weight she had been putting on with stress eating. With her husband having a job as dangerous as he had, and both of her children wanting to follow in his footsteps, there was never a moment she did not worry about her family. Izumi however was doing the same training her brother was, but more advanced having started earlier.

Ochaco watched her best friend spar with his dad, and was dreading the fact that her turn was next. She. like many other kids her age, wanted to be a hero, but unlike most others she wanted to be one to take care of her financially struggling family. She watched Hisashi throw Izuku out of the ring. Izumi did some stretches preparing to spar with Izuku. As Ochaco prepared to enter the ring with Mr. Midoriya's his phone went off. Upon seeing the number he excused himself. Inko watched as her husband left a worried look on her face.

"It's time we finally located him." the voice on the phone told Hisashi before he even had a chance to say hello. "The mission will begin tomorrow. We'll meet up at your agency to avoid drawing any attention to ourselves."

"Alright let me tell my family goodbye and I'll meet you there. See you soon." after that, Hisashi hung up the phone. Hisashi returned to the main room of the Midoriya family dojo, and started talking to family. "Ok guys I just got a new mission so I'm going to be gone for awhile. You all know what's coming next so be prepared. Izumi I'm very proud of you. You've grown into a strong young lady, not only are you stronger than I was at your age but you've developed your own fighting style that takes full advantage of your quirk. Izuku, you might not be as strong as your sister, but you've got a true heroic spirit that would impress All Might himself. I know someday you'll be the best hero in the world." he sadly told his family. Hisashi usually did this before dangerous missions because he never wanted to leave anything unsaid to his family, but this time something felt off. "Inko never forget that I will always love you, and the years we've spent together have been the best of my life. I'll be honest, when I went to the U.A. hero course I never thought I'd meet and fall in love with a girl in the business course, but I'm glad I did. And finally Ochaco ever since that day at the park, you've become just as much part of my family as everyone else here." he leaned in and whispered into Ochaco's ear "Treat Izuku right, and don't let him step out of line." She promptly blushed at that because her feelings for Izuku were the cause of teasing from every member of the Midoriya family except Izuku himself. After his speech, Hisashi left the room preparing to leave for his agency, but Inko stopped him before he reached the door.

"Honey I know you always say goodbye like that because you might not come back, but why were you so serious this time?" Inko questioned her husband

"This is my most dangerous mission yet. I'm working with a very powerful hero on this mission, and I still don't know if I'll make it out. I'm not gonna promise I'll return when I'm uncertain myself. Now Inko I really must go. I love you no matter what happens that will never change. Remember that." Hisashi hugged his wife and left.

A Few Weeks Later

Inko ran into Izuku's classroom in a panic. "I'm sorry for interrupting, Mr. Toriyama, but there's something on t.v. that Izuku has to see. I already told Izumi's teacher about it. Can I use the t.v. and show the class the news?" Inko explained and asked barely able to form a coherent thought. Mr. Toriyama accepted and turned the classroom t.v. onto the local news.

Once the reporter was on screen she started to explain the urgent report. "Breaking news forty-third rank hero Mentalist was found dead in the aftermath of a battle alongside number one hero All Might. Reports indicate that the villain behind attack has been dealt with, and All Might is unharmed." Izuku and the rest of his class watched the news report in horror as they saw that many of the student's favorite hero was found dead. None more so than Izuku, who was crying so hard a fountain was forming from his eyes. Ochaco, almost as sad him, tearfully went and hugged Izuku.

"What villain is strong enough to kill Deku's dad while fighting alongside All Might? I hope the reporter was right and that he was dealt with." Katsuki said. The rest of the class panicked thinking the same thing. Although they were curious what he meant because Izuku's dad was pretty low ranked as a hero. "Deku's dad was pretty low ranked not because of his strength; he just never cared about popularity or rank."

After the news report, Izuku and Ochaco were excused for the rest of the day. On the way out the door they ran into Izumi already in tears. The family and Ochaco left the school, not wanting to face the rest of the day. Upon arriving home they saw someone standing at the door. To say the man looked unhealthy would be a massive understatement. The man stood just over seven foot tall wearing a baggy white tee shirt and green cargo pants. His blonde hair was wild, unkempt, and looked like a lion's mane. His blue eyes were sunken in, and they had a permanent shadow cast over them. What made him look unhealthy though, was his physique. His body was pure skin and bones with no muscle tone at all, and was currently standing with crutches.

"Excuse me, is this the Midoriya household? I'm looking for a woman named Inko." The man explained to the family.

"Yes this is our apartment, and I'm Inko Midoriya. Why are you looking for me? My husband just died, and I'm not exactly ready to deal with anyone yet."

"I saw your husband take on that monster with All Might. If he wasn't there I'd be dead right now." The whole family looked at this man in shock. An innocent civilian getting caught in the crossfire or being held hostage wasn't unheard of, but it was certainly a rarity. Especially with heroes like All Might on the case. "He took an attack that was meant for me. He made the ultimate sacrifice so that I could live. He died a true heroes' death, and I will be grateful for him always."

"Thank you for telling me that. It doesn't make it hurt any less, but it does give me some closure to know he died saving someone's life." The kids nodded in agreement, but still wondered who this mystery man himself was. Even Izuku was so distracted by the man that he never used his quirk on the man.

"I wanted to you and your family anyway I could, and with Hisashi gone it looks like you won't be able to support yourself. You were in charge of his agency weren't you Mrs. Midoriya?" she nodded. "Ok sadly the agency will probably shut down because he never had any sidekicks, but I'm willing to support your family financially as thanks."

"Oh I don't want to be a burden on you. We'll manage somehow. Both my kids want to follow my husbands footsteps, and be heroes themselves. I'm not gonna stop them from trying to achieve their dream even after this."

"It's no burden at all. Frankly I have more money than I'll ever need. Even with my upcoming hospital bills. Please just let me help you." It was clear this man would not take no for an answer, so Inko had no choice but to accept the man's offer.

"I'm sorry, I just realized I never introduced myself. My name is Toshinori Yagi. Oh and I have one more message from Hisashi, they were his last words. He said 'Izuku and Izumi, don't let my death stop you from being heroes.' Inko he wanted you to know that no matter what happens He will always love you. His last message was for a young lady named Uraraka, who I assume is this young lady with brown hair. He said don't deny your feelings and embrace them. Well it was nice talking to you all, but I've got a doctor's appointment." The mysterious man left, and the entire family stood at the door to the apartment wondering just who the man was.

A Few Days Later

"We are gathered here today honor the life of a great man that was sadly taken from us far too soon. Hisashi Midoriya, also known as Mentalist, loving husband, and father of two." A detective named, Naomasa Tsukauchi, was heading the funeral.

Every member of the family delivered their speech. Izuku and Izumi could barely contain tears as they talked about how much of a inspiration he was on their chose to be heroes. Izuku in particular claim that his father was all the proof he needed that you did not need a strong quirk to be a great hero. Mr. Yagi had the biggest grin on his face at that claim. Inko during her speech could barely form a coherent sentence as she delivered her speech, not even bothering to hold back tears like her children. Ochaco looked almost as sad as her best friend, but her speech talked about how Hisashi was like a second father to her, and how grateful for all the financial support he provided to her family.

After the family gave their speeches, several pro heroes delivered speeches each talking about how much of an honor it was to work with an amazing man. For some reason a young man named, Koichi Haimawari, delivered a speech talking about working with him as well. Toshinori was the last to talk at the funeral. His speech was by far the longest and by the end of it there wasn't a dry eye in the place. Hisashi was buried and people started to leave. Afterwards the only people left were the Midoriya family, Ochaco, and Mr. Yagi.

I wonder what Mr. Yagi's quirk is? Izuku thought then used his quirk on Mr. Yagi. What the? One for all, what kind of quirk is that? He has access to an incredible amount of stockpiled power and can be passed from one generation to the next, and he's the eighth holder of the power. Wait this quirk ... is Mr. Yagi All Might? That can't be he's so much skinnier. All Might must've taken damage in that battle too. What kind of villain could kill Dad and do that to All Might? No matter what I can't tell anyone about this. Not even my mom
