Had to repost this story as it was marked as a crossover. In turn, making it harder to find as it didn't show up in the general search, even when using the character filters. Which, was casing my reader bais, for this story, to be extremely limited.

Hello to all my readers, both former and new. I am sorry for how long it has taken me to get this chapter up, however, I let myself get distracted in rewriting King of Demons. Which, has been rewritten through chapter 4 for all of you who have been reading it but didn't know that I have been rewriting it. As notifications aren't sent out for chapters being updated. Also, I am pleased to say that one of my favorite authors, M.D. Knight, on this site is back again. Now, on to the review responses.

bladetri chapter 3. Sep 7: like XD ~~~ Glad that you do, and hope that I can continue to have you like my storyline XD

Karlos1234ify chapter 3. Sep 7: Poor Izuku ~~~ couldn't agree more, though I am glad that the reaction to Inko's death has been what I was hoping for rather than me getting raged at.

undefmidi chapter 1. Sep 9: Good one m8 ~~~ Glad you thought so, and hope that I can continue to have your opinon as such.

LoverOfArtemis chapter 3. Oct 4: Poor Izuku. Losing his mother at such a young age. With a dad who was never there and didn't even show up to comfort Izuku after Inko's death. But it seems his childhood friend is finally back. I can't wait to see how they interact with each other after being separated for so long. I'm definitely going to favorite and follow this story. I hope you update soon. And can you please make the chapters longer? P.S. I'm also going to put this in my community. ~~~ Yes, that was a tragedy, however, it is set up for far more in this story than you may have realized. As for Izuku's childhood friend, that is a yes and no to your speculation and you will see why in chapter 5. As for making the chapters longer, I will have to see as it is already rather difficult for me to write the chapters as long as I have been in a fast manner. Also, I am thankful for you adding my story to your community.

On with the story, and please remember to review.

Chapter 4

After Izuku had managed to calm down, and the girl was positive that she had gotten him to let out as much of his sorrow as he currently could, the two separated. As the two separated, they sat down on the beach, with Izuku's hair overshadowing the top half of his face and the girl having a patient and sympathetic expression.

"Um, thank you…" Izuku said with a slightly expectant tone at the end.

"I… I'm Ebony," The now identified Ebony said

Ebony hated lying, but it couldn't really be helped. After all, she couldn't very well be giving out her real name to a stranger, especially given her family circumstances. As that could have disastrous results and her parents had sent her to this part of the city for a very important reason. Which, was so important that her parents had informed both her chauffeur and her bodyguards, whom both were normally instructed to maintain a protective yet distant presence, to hold an intimidating and close presence instead.

Thankfully, Ebony had managed to convince her guards to do otherwise when they had gotten lost and she had spotted Izuku.

"Thanks again, but why did you help me, let alone know that I even needed it," Izuku asked, unable to shake off his suspicion of others that he had started to gain after All Might's attempt to crush his dream. Only to have it permanently ingrained, and grown within him, after the murder of his mother.

"I volunteer at a food bank when I can, and over time, I have picked up on how to tell when someone is hurting. I'm guessing that you just recently lost someone close to you." Ebony explained before she started her educated guess in a caring tone.

"My mother," Izuku said with a sorrowful look.

Upon hearing Izuku's words, Ebony finally reached the point that she truly allowed herself to fully take in Izuku's appearance.

'Dark green hair that looks black when not catching the light at the right angle, a hairstyle that looks like he has a bush on his head, four freckles on each cheek in a tilted square formation, dark green eyes, and has recently lost his mother. It has to be him,' Ebony thought to herself.

"Your name," the girls spoke in an attempt to not catch Izuku off guard given the lull in their conversation. "It wouldn't happen to be Izuku Midoriya, would it?"

"Ya, it is," Izuku answered, as he instinctively readied himself for a fight the best that he could without shifting his body too much. As he didn't want the girl in front of him to see that he was ready for a fight.

Sadly, for Izuku, the time that the girl had spent volunteering at a food bank allowed her to see that she had caused Izuku to persevere her as a threat. Thus, Ebony attempted to move to immediately dispel such thought from Izuku's mind.

However, before she even had a chance to speak, Izuku had lunged forward and all but thrown her back before nearly instantly turning and flaring his KI to the point that he was covered in a milky white aura. Which looked like saw blades moving up to the top of his head and fusing together. Yet the real surprise came after he seemingly extended his fist as the milky white aura moved from covering his entire body to only covering his fist just before it vanished. In doing so, the excess energy from, what seemed to be his random punch, caused a large crater to form in the pile of garbage due to all of the items that were just crushed together. Yet, when Izuku opened his hand, Ebony was shocked to see a small metal disk fall from his palm. She was shocked even more after she snatched the disk out of mid-air and saw that one side that the distinct markings of the butt of a bullet. This, in turn, caused Ebony to immediately begin looking for where the shot was fired from only to see that the piles of trash encircling them were too high and dense to do so.

'Shit, that was an armor piercing round," Izuku thought as he momentarily looked at his palm thanks to it feeling slightly wet, only to be surprised when he saw that his palm only had a small cut on it. 'So, the bullet made it past my KI aura, even after condensing it around my hand. Looks like I will need to do more KI building exercises so this doesn't happen again. However, I can't risk having to stop… two more rounds, at most, with the amount of KI that I have left. Even then, I should try to avoid stopping any more bullets after one more, or I could end up blacking out if I stop the third shot...'

Izuku would have kept going on with his muttering, that he had surprisingly been able to keep inside his head for the first time in his life, but was pulled out of it when he felt Ebony grab his hand and begin to drag him off the beach as they both were surrounded by bodyguards.

"SAFE HOUSE," Ebony ordered as she leaped into the back of her armored limo, dragging Izuku along with her.

Not bothering to wait for the door to close, the driver slammed on the accelerator. Causing the tires to squeal as the vehicle raced forward as the driver shifted it into four-wheel drive and the sudden burst of speed forced the door shut.

"WAIT, WHAT'S GOING ON, WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE," Izuku exclaimed as Ebony could see that his eyes had dilated from shock once the reality of the situation had kicked in.

"Midoriya-san, I am sorry about deceiving you, but my name isn't Ebony, it's Yaoyorozu, Yaoyorozu Momo," Momo said as she introduced herself.

"Yaoyorozu, as in the Yaoyorozu corporation?" Izuku found himself asking before he could stop himself.

"Yes, and I was sent to find you by my parents, as it is very hard for them to do anything outside of the safety of our home or offices due to how heavily guarded they have to be. They wouldn't go into specifics with me, but apparently, our families have known each other for generations. Going all the way back to your ancestors Goku, and Vegeta as well as my ancestor Krillin. As for what that was about, it was an assassination attempt, but I don't know if they were aiming for you or me," Momo explained.

"ME!? Why would they be aiming for me?" Izuku questioned with even more panic flossing his system.

"Because you are the inheritor to a very wealthy and important company, Capsule Corp. It's a manufacturing company that only does business with, Heroes, our government, or extremely wealthy clients. The general public doesn't even know it exists. Oh, you're injured," Momo answered before she noted Izuku's injury.

Momo then took out an object that looked to be about the size of a triple-A battery and clicked the top of it. Momo then had a med kit in her hand and quickly attended Izuku's minor injury with a small amount of antibiotic and a small band-aid. Once done, Momo pushed a button on the med kit and it poofed back into a canister that was about the size of a triple-A battery with a button on one end.

"This is one of Capsule Corps produces, all of which, can do as your companies name suggests and be reduced down to the size of a small capsule," Momo said as she handed the capsule, and documentation to prove her claims, over to Izuku to inspect.

Meanwhile

"WHAT HELL DO YOU MEAN THERE'S NO RECORD, SOMEBODY CAN'T JUST HAVE A KID IF THEY DON'T EXIST!" Tony raged at seemingly no one.

"I am sorry sir, but there simply isn't any records of a Hisashi Midoriya ever existing. There are absolutely no records of him having even been born, regardless of what database I checked." Responded the nearly robotic voice of Tony's AI, Jarvis.

"Which means that Hisashi Midoriya either is the secret Identity of a Hero, or…" Tony said as he cut himself off, not wanting to accept what could very likely be the reality of the situation.

"Or he never truly existed and is someone with enough influence to have created a concrete alias as well as leave no evidence of it upon no longer needing it," Jarvis finished Tony's analysis.

Resulting in said man, calling one of his Hero suit gauntlets to him, slipping it on as it flew through the air, turning around, and blasting a hole in the wall behind him. After a moment passed, Tony spun back around and slammed his now armored fist into the high tech table he had been working at. In turn, nearly splitting the table in two as he did so.

"TONY!" Hawk Eye called as he came rushing in, with his weapon drawn and ready after having heard the destruction of the wall. Causing the Bow-man to think that Tony was being attacked due to him having also heard the distinct sound of a repulsor blast. Only to walk in on the sight of his friend slamming his fist into a high tech desk. Which, had immediately set off several nuclear bomb class warnings in the head of the Avenger's sharpshooter as he took in Tony's labored breathing. A clear sign that the Armored Avenger was struggling to calm down.

Seeing that calling to his friend wasn't doing anything, Clint walked forward and placed a hand on Tony's shoulders.

"Breath Stark, breath," the former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent of the duo said as he gently shook the billionaire's shoulder to force him out of his mind.

Once Tony began to regain a more normal breathing pattern, Clint turned his attention the now static filled images on the tech desk, which was on the verge of falling apart. Yet was surprised when he found that all the images, that were still being projected from the desk, pertained to individuals that had an ancestral link to Izuku Midoriya as well as all of them being from his Mother's side of the family.

"He means a lot to you, doesn't he Stark?" the former agent asked in a serious tone as she turned his gaze back to the armored Avenger.

"I look at him and I see myself, only with a heart of gold. I don't want him making the same mistakes I did, I don't want him to waist most of his life just to find what really matters. I don't want him to suffer through the things that I have. I want his life to be better than mine has, for HIM to be better than I am." Tony muttered out in a sorrow filled tone and a conflicted expression.

Many would, and often did, think that Tony had been given a cushioned life growing up but, that hadn't been further from the truth. Tony's relationship with his father was like that of the relationship between two businessmen, especially during the early years of Tony's teen years. His mother was also extremely busy but had always made an effort to spend some time with him each day. His mother was also constantly playing the mediator between the two male Starks. Though that was only on the rare occasions the two even got into a fight as Tony could very rarely recall a time when his father had given a shit about what he did.

Tony had also learned at a very early age that people only ever wanted to be close to hem due to his parents or his family's wealth, causing Tony to isolate himself from a very early age. Then his parents were taken from him and Tony found himself grieving the loss of his mother and having regretting the fact that he hadn't worked harder to form a better relationship between him and his father. Later in his life, that regret turned to a burning rage that he still had yet to find an appropriate outlet for.

It was only thanks to Pepper and Tony's best friend that the rest of the Avengers knew of the truth behind Tony's upbringing. As well as how to avoid landmines that were tied to it.

"Sounds like you want what any father should for their child," Clint stated bluntly.

"But…" Tony stated as he began his rebuttal of Client's claim.

"Trust me, Tony, I know what I'm talking about on this one," Clint said before he paused for a moment before letting out a small sigh and had the two of them sit down. "Look, no one on the team but Widow knows this, so I am expecting you to keep your big trap shut for once. I have a family of my own, so I know what I am talking about when I say that you just described the feelings that I have for my children every day, especially when they drive me up a wall. You may not have known the kid for long, but you knew about his past, and how closely it lines up with your own. Different causes and circumstances, sure, but it's the same result.

Which, caused you to have a bond form with him, on your end at the very least, that formed to a far stronger and faster extent than on his. Then again, he could have also bonded with you to the same extent, I didn't get to know the kid as well as you did, none of us did. Hell, he had practically given Cap the cold shoulder for some reason, and kids usually love Cap. So just give it a few days, maybe a week or two, and see if you still don't hear from him.

If not, then the bond isn't as strong for him as it is you right now. If so, then he may very well have accepted you as what a father should be without even realizing it. Though he may have realized it, I don't know, as like I said before, I don't have the understanding of him that you do. Just keep the door open for him." Clint said, standing up, and placing a hand on Tony's shoulder before left Tony to his thoughts as well as to do some digging of his own, and to pull Widow in on it. As the last thing that he would stand for was a parent ignoring their child, and he and Widow had resources that wouldn't be in any database.

However, Tony wasn't given long to think, as Pepper ended up running into the room soon after Clint had left.

"TONY, Izuku… was… attacked…" Pepper forced out as she struggled to regain her breath.

Having heard all he needed to, Tony immediately called the rest of his armor to him and was blasting through the roof of the building. Not giving a shit if he was damaging the building for once as he not only knew he had the money to fix it but was far more concerned with Izuku's well being.

Elsewhere

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN YOU FAILED? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE BEST ASSASSIN IN JAPAN! HOW THE HELL DID YOU FAIL!?" Raged the voice of an extremely tall and physically built male as he yelled into a disposable phone.

"An unforeseen complication happened and prevented me from taking out the target. You needn't worry, I always get my mark, this is just a courtesy call to let you know that I had an unexpected setback. Your problem will be taken care of, and as agreed, I expect you to bury any cases that I am involved in once the job is complete." a clearly altered voice replied in a calm and level tone.

"How much of a delay are we talking about here," the male growled out.

"Hard to say… first, I will have to wait for them to come out of hiding, then I will have to tail them for a bit. I had been lead to believe this would be an easy hit, given the information you provided me with. So, I wasn't as thorough as I normally am with my planing. As such, it will require more time for me to get things in place once the target is in the open again. Which, means that I will need to do a complete revaluation of the target due to the fact that your information is obviously flawed. Thus, I'll give you a time frame of five weeks once the target has been in the open for a month or so. However, if you hadn't given me faulty information in the first place, this would all be done with already," the voice replied.

"FINE!" The male raged before he exploded in an inferno and melted the phone in his grasp.

*KNOCK**KNOCK*

"WHAT!" The man yelled into the intercom just before one of his sidekicks came through the door.

"Sir, the police have sent us the case file on a villain they want you to deal with," the sidekick said as she quickly handed over the manilla envelope.

"They labeled him the Hero Killer hu? Hmm, there isn't enough information here for us to do anything about him. Regrettably, we will have to wait for him to strike a few more times to establish a pattern on him. Send word to the other Hero agencies to be on alert, and tell the police to continue to send any new information they get their hands on." the male stated before he dropped the file on the stack on his desk as the sidekick quickly turned and left the Hero's office.

Back with Izuku

Upon reaching the safe house, Izuku watched as a woman pulled Momo into a hug no sooner than the girl had stepped out of the car.

"I'm so glad you're safe, when I got the call that you had been attacked, I was so worried that I had lost you." the woman said as she tightened her hold on her daughter.

"It's ok mom, in fact, Midoriya-san protected me, though I am still not sure if they were aiming for him or me," Momo said to her mother as the two hugged.

When the mother and daughter duo separated, Izuku was able to get his first clear look at Momo's mother. When Izuku began to take in the elder woman's appearance, he idly noted where Momo got most of her looks from. Which, was easy form many, that saw the duo, to think as the elder woman had on black high heels that were at most an inch tall, dark brown pantyhose that were borderlining on black. Over the pantyhose, the woman had on a black business suit skirt that reached to halfway down her thighs. This was followed by a white button up business shirt with long sleeves. The woman's outfit was finished with a single-breasted business coat. Additionally, the cuffs of the white button up business shirt folded back over the ends of the business coats sleeves.

Appearance wise, the woman had a commanding aura and a figure that made it clear to Izuku that whoever gained Momo's heart would end up as the envy of many males as, despite Momo's own already matured physical appearance, her mother's was still far more so. The elder woman also had cat shaped, onyx-colored eyes and long black hair just like her daughter. However, unlike Momo, the elder woman's hair was held in a high ponytail that reached down to the bottom of her shoulder blades and flowed smoothly down her form. The elder woman's ponytail was also held in place by a purple hair band. Finally, the elder woman's bangs were sloped to the left with two strands nearly reaching her shoulders as the framed her face with her having the right strand held in place by three purple hair clips.

"So your Inko's and that bastard's son. Well, I am pleased to see that you take after your mother more than that bastard," The elder woman stated before she pulled Izuku into a tender hug.

"Thank you for protecting my daughter," the elder Yaoyorozu said before she released the rigid Izuku upon noticing that her gesture of gratitude was putting the young man on edge.

"Oh, where are my manners, I am Maria Yaoyorozu, Momo's mother, and now, your future Mother-in-law," the now identified Maria said as Momo's jaw dropped and Izuku gained a hard look to his eyes.

"And just why should I believe you, I don't even know you or your daughter. As far as I know, everything that you have told me could be a ploy to get at my family's company." Izuku said with a hard edge to his voice.

"I assure you that isn't the case Mr. Midoriya. However, if it is proof that you need, then proof you shall have. After all, I can't have my future son-in-law thinking that I would lie to him about such important matters." Maria said as she snapped her fingers, resulting in a muscular man coming forward and presenting a briefcase to her.

Maria then opened the case, as the man continued to hold it, and pulled out a few documents that she handed over to Izuku once she had gone through them and verified that she had collected all the forms she needed to give Izuku as proof of her statement.

"These say that we have the final say as to whether we marry or not. Not that we are Married." Izuku stated after carefully going through the documents.

"Only after you come of age though, I just simply wanted to get the idea of being married to one another in your heads. After all, Inko and I were very careful when it came to this, waiting to see if your likes and dislikes would conflict, as well as if your personalities would even form to be compatible with one another's. We may have always dreamed of having our children marry one another, but when we found out that you two would be born only two months apart from one another. We wanted to make sure that your marriage would be a happy one, or it wouldn't happen at all. As the last thing either of us had wanted, was for our children to be in an unhappy marriage." Maria explained as Izuku looked down at the papers again only to see that they all were dated on the day before his mother's murder. The sight of which, made Izuku break out crying.

Izuku had known that his mother both loved him greatly, and had greatly regretted not supporting him when he first had his dreams shattered. Yet, he had never suspected that she had cared so much about him that she would have a plan in place for him to still have a chance of a family of his own. Which, was a dream that he never even thought of chasing after due to the years of mistreatment he had endured thanks to him being Quirkless, however.

"I'm sorry, but I can't except this. My mother clearly wanted me to have a chance of having a family of my own in the future, but if I am to marry someone, I don't want it to be because of a pre-written contract." Izuku said as he forced himself to regained his composure.

"That would hardly be the case, I assure you. As was have parameters to ensure that wouldn't be the case. Which, includes if either of you truly doesn't want the marriage, if even one of your friends believe that you truly don't want the marriage, as well as if either Momo's father or I believe that either of you doesn't want the marriage, then it will be called off. This arrangement was only made after you both had the time you needed for your personalities to form. Yet even then, Inko and I would have never considered this if we felt you personalities didn't mesh. However, the final call can't be made until you both are of age, until then, just keep it in mind as you get to know one another. After all, by the time you both reach the point where a decision must be made, you both may want nothing more than to marry each other." The mother stated in a soothing and understanding tone.

"Really," Izuku asked in a disbelieving tone. "Because from where I am standing, this contract forces us to only be able to end up with one another. After all, I highly doubt that anyone that either of us ends up with will take the news, that we have, and still are, engaged to someone else, very well. The only way that either of us could pursue a relationship with someone else, is to keep this a secret until we can call the entire thing off and then bury that secret. Otherwise, should the secret ever be found out, any relationship either of us ends up in has a high probability of being ended because of this."

"Well, that simply won't do," Maria stated in a matter of fact tone once Izuku finished, in turn, making Momo's jaw drop.

"You understood that," Momo all but yelled as she had been lost on what Izuku had been mumbling after he had said the word really.

"Perfectly, the Midoriya mumbling is nothing new to me and I worked very hard to learn to understand what Inko would say when she would fall into a fit of it. After all, Midoriyas always bring up excellent points and facts when they do so. However, back to the matter at hand, there is a rather simple remedy for this problem, we make an amendment to the arrangement. Would having it state that the two of you are set to be engaged be better? I am sure that would help you to explain to the situation to whomever you could possibly be in a relationship with." Maria rebutted as she watched Izuku consider the change before he nodded.

That's it for this chapter, please remember to review.
