Last Time:
Izuku breathed a sigh of relief as he got home and took off his mask. Before he could take a step, a figure tackled him to the ground and a pair of lips locked onto his. He opened his eyes to see Talia there. "How long have you been waiting for?" Izuku asked with a small grin, getting one in return.
Now:
Izuku walked down the streets with a bored look in his face, seeing Talia go from market stall to market stall doing her shopping. "Oh, this is cute!" She stated as she pulled out a pink shirt with "I Heart u" written on it. All she got was a blank look in return. "Fine, sourpuss. Stay in your dark and edgy clothing." She stated dismissively, then returned to her hunt. 'What is it with women and shopping?" Izuku internally wondered as he followed the girl in front of him. As they approached a corner street, a loud explosion went off. Izuku quickly looked to see Talia still on her feet. An older woman with pale blond hair was currently trying to push her way past a couple of heroes.
"Let me go! He's got my son!" She screamed as a hero with super strength held her in place. Another explosion went off, making everyone turn to see a large, slime like creature blowing up anything it touched, with a teenager being held firmly in his stomach. "You going to help, hero?" Talia asked quietly, but Izuku turned and began walking away. "Damn it, let me go, you useless pile of trash! I'm better than this!" The teen yelled, making Izuku stop in his tracks. A memory surfaced of himself and a similar kid with the same hairstyle in a playground. The kid was bullying himself and another child, but the other child had been hurt. Izuku tried to defend them both, but was no match for the boy.
-Flashback-
A smaller Izuku laid on the ground, his body battered and bruised. Before him was a smaller version of the kid in trouble, small explosions coming from his hands. "Don't you know better than to fight me, Deku?" The boy asked arrogantly as he dug his heel into Izuku's back. "I have an awesome quirk that will make me the best hero ever. You have no quirk. Do you know why, Deku?" The kid asked, then leaned down to whisper in his ear. "Because I'm better than you."
-Flashback end-
Izuku looked back at the kid, who looked like he was running low on time. "What are you going to do?" Talia asked. Izuku turned to the mother.
-Flashback-
A small Izuku was crying on the ground. He had tried to be a good friend to Kacchan, but the boy was so mean. "Hey there, little man!" A confident voice stated. He turned to see Kacchan's mom approaching him. "What's wrong?" She asked with an honest concern. "Nothing, I'm fine." Izuku stated, but was stopped as Kacchan's mom put her hand on his shoulder. "It was that spoiled brat of mine, wasn't it?" She asked, getting a shaky nod from Izuku. "Oh, he's in for a world of hurt when he gets home!" She stated, cracking her knuckles, but stopped as a weight gripped her leg.
"Please don't be mad at Kacchan." The younger Izuku pleaded. 'This kid... He's literally been blown away, and he's more worried about my delinquent son than himself.' She thought as she looked at the small boy in front of her. "Come on kid, let's get you cleaned up. And then, I feel like Ice cream." She stated as she grabbed his hand and began dragging him along.
-Flashback End-
Izuku saw that same woman crying at the thought of her child getting hurt. As rotten as the kid might have been, he couldn't do that to her. He quickly ran towards an alley with Talia following closely. He took off his shirt, revealing a dark compression shirt underneath, and pulled out a helmet like mask that covered his mouth and hair. "You're going to help that brat?" A voice behind him asked. He turned to see Talia putting on a similar mask to his. "Why are you getting dressed up? This is a private party." He stated as he left the aisle.
-Market-
Izuku quickly arrived to the market to see come heroes running damage and crowd control, but no one was going after the monster. "We have to wait for someone with a decent counter quirk to get on the scene!" A hero with water hoses for arms yelled. 'Alright, slime like monster, has a hold on a kid, and now can blow up anything with a touch. Great.' Izuku thought as he dropped into a convenience store from the skylight and began browsing through the products. "Propane? Nope. Anticoolant? Negative..." He continued to look until he encountered a fire extinguisher. He quickly grabbed it, along with a couple of cans of compressed air, and sped out the door.
As he left the market, the blob like creature noticed him. "HAHAHA! What are you planning to do with that?" The figure asked, but all of the heroes grew worried. This guy wasn't a known registered hero, so what was he doing here? 'Who is that?' A certain small blonde asked as he watched the scene unfold.
The slime made a mad dash towards Izuku and attempted to squish him under his arm, but was stopped as a large amount of the extinguisher was fired off at once, directly into the blob monster's face. The blob yelled in pain and writhed, completely ignoring him. Izuku took advantage of this and quickly took the compressed air cans from his pockets. He turned them upside down and began spraying the area where the boy was held. The ice-cold liquid began hardening the blob monster's skin. After a few seconds, Izuku let out a punch into the creature's abdomen. The slime holding Bakugo shattered, letting the kid drop. Izuku quickly picked him up and began running away, but was stopped as the blob creature grabbed onto his ankle.
'This is bad. If he gets me and the kid, then this entire attempt was useless!' Izuku mentally berated himself. He gathered every ounce of strength he had and hurled Bakugo away from himself, watching as wooden vines quickly caught him.
The monster lifted Izuku by his ankle to eye level and spoke. "YOU JUST COST ME THAT QUIRK!" The creature yelled. A tentacle slammed into his stomach, making Izuku cough. "You'll pay for that!" The creature swore. "STOP RIGHT THERE!" A voice cut through the crowd.
