'Deep breaths Inko, you're here for answers and help'. Filing away all non pertinent thoughts, she took a deep breath of the salty air and did an about face. She thought she was prepared to make contact with Him again, but seeing that ageless, beguiling, yet morbidly wan lopsided smile made her overactive tear ducts betray her yet again.
"You look as stunning as always Inko, time has gently caressed you where others would be ravaged by strife." He complemented.
"You were always emotional" he strode foward, the sounds of his bare feet on the sand irregularly loud compared to the lapping tide on the shore.
"Dry your tears, Inko it is unbecoming to blemish your face so" the man stated as he tilted he cupped her cheek, dabbing with the kerchief her tears.
"I need your Insight, Izuku isn't getting better, the drugs the doctors tell me to sneak in his food and drinks only are a bandaid, and his gifted quirk that someone gave him is unnatural Vincent, and it took months for him to be able to use it at all without a meltdown" Inko sobbed.
"That's because Izuku had his original quirk stolen Inko" Vincent stated plainly.
"WHAT, the doctor told me he was quirkless, I spent years consoling my baby because he wanted to be a hero with all his heart" Inko shrieked.
" I distinctly remember informing you that even before Izuku was borne he would be special Inko, as if our child would be a base human with no potential" Vincent had made sure that his progeny would be everything Inko desired, and more importantly what Vincent himself wanted, because he yearned for a child, for a successor to the dream.
"I didn't even know quirks could be stolen, what sort of villain could….would even do that to a child" Inko's frayed nerves did her no help at the revelation that her baby boy could have had a future without that macabre quirk, that whilst it saved his life, was unnatural and she couldn't stand seeing her baby boy persecuted for having a quirk that looked so villainous.
"Know this, I have already taken the situation in hand, Izuku will get his birthright back, and while he borrows some of my gift…."
"You did what!?" Izuku went from distraught to hysterical, the ambient nature of their meeting ground doing her no favour. "Our son's mind is barely held together drugs and the extensive counseling after committing manslaughter from your gift"
"Izuku would have died without my gift AND intervention. I was there when he was almost possessed and used as a skin suit, killing the villain and granting him a means of pursuing his immediate goals. HE WOULD HAVE ALSO DIED FROM THAT APE OF A HOMA SAPIEN TOO." Vincent bellowed, his face contorted in a snarl. "The aberration that is All For One, the villain that stole Izuku's 'quirk' perverts the order of the world, Izuku should never have encountered that sludge filth, the ape man should never have shown up when he did, everything is chaos now because humans cannot simply be greatful for what they are given and now I must descend yet again to rectify everything"
Vincent's shouting and the revelations only causing her tears to flow like a blown dam."You told me nothing besides i was pregnant and my child was special, what was i supposed to think, I wanted a family but I expected you to have SOME form of permanence in his life"
With a gutteral inhale and exhale he calmed himself after the outburst"That was not part of our accord, It is not in my nature to coddle and while I am fond of you Inko and of our son my place is not in the waking world, my mere presence incites madness"
"..."
"But with these recent events, it is made evident to me that it would be in my best interest to personally make sure that both of you live through this ordeal." and while he was being partially candid with Inko, he hadn't dared to inform the irrational human that the pact she made included fine print. After usurping the Moon Presence and lifting humanity into its new quirked infancy, he had that all too familiar yearning that all Great Ones had, to sire an offspring. But Vincent wouldn't consume dregs, drag women into a Dream or Nightmare. So detached were his predecessors that they failed to account for the fact there were humans that would beg and grovel for children. Cultists, Undesirables, the infertile, there were innumerable women whom would gladly make a pact for a child. Then one day he heard her, sobbing on a park bench after her former lover denounced their marital pact on account of a miscarriage.
Flashback
"The best Dieticians, Gynecologists, and you have the audacity to miscarry. All my time and effort spent then wasted by your worthless waste of space self" Hisashi spat. All he needed for Inko to do was carry a child to term, and then when the child manifested the quirk he specially cultured in the fetus, it would be harvested. But no… she couldn't even do the simplest task right.
"P-Please, You're all I have" Inko sobbed. She followed his directions to the letter, no strenuous activity, ate at the proper times flawlessly prepared meals to he prepared for optimal health, and avoided high stress situations. But she still woke up with a gut wrenching scream in the middle of the night, the bed staining with blood. Not even the prodigal speed she was rushed to the hospital was the child saved, asphyxiating in her womb.
Staring at the spineless woman Hisashi scoffed in disgust, not even a week later and she couldn't just get the message. "You're useless to me, you have no worth, insufferable imbecile".
"I can still have a child, please don't leave me" Inko begged as the man she thought loved her dismissed her pleas, slamming the door to her apartment in Inko's face causing her to collapse sobbing on her knees as she weakly punched the throw rug.
'I'm not broken, I can be of use, please, if there is some higher power I want a second chance, I want to love and be loved with a family of my own' Inko prayed in her head with all her remaining willpower her bloodshot eyes blurry and unfocused.
And that was when he struck.
"What would you offer for this second chance Inko?" the voice said, materializing as an individual in front of the woman.
"Anything" She choked out.
"Then allow me to acquiesce your request" the man pulled Inko to her feet, cupping her chin and tilting it up gently.
"All I ask is for you to love and support the child, you needn't work about anything."
His lips centimeters away from Inko's before they veered upward, planting a wisp of a kiss upon her forehead.
"How can you even promise this?" Inko blurted out, regaining a fragment of her composure.
"Because the prayer in your mind called me here, those who watch are not unsympathetic"
"...Just promise I won't have to lose anyone again" Inko pleaded.
"It shall be my pleasure" the male being purred, embracing with woman and projecting an otherworldly warmth and comfort to Inko.
