Author's Note
Sorry for the short chapter! Also, there isn't much about Deku in it. This chapter is kinda just getting some important plot things out of the way.
Two days later...
Deku pulled his hood up farther over his head, trying not to get noticed. The news that he was All Might's adopted kid spread like wildfire, and he really didn't want to deal with all the stares right now. Luckily, his messy green hair was the most noticeable thing about him, so it was easy to hide from crowds.
Though, it was much harder to hide from crowds with the number one hero sitting right next to you. Luckily he wasn't in his muscle form, so no one recognized him. "Aren't you excited to see who wins?" All Might shouted, practically in his ear.
"Yeah. That's kind of the whole point of watching the sports festival." Deku replied, sounding tired.
All Might beamed, obviously missing the sarcasm in Deku's statement. "Oh, look the first years are entering!" All Might exclaimed excitedly. Deku ignored All Might, and instead turned his attention towards the first years.
The next few hours passed with Deku observing the competitions, and jotting down notes in his hero journal. It was pretty interesting, and it was just getting to the battle between acid girl and the bellybutton laser kid, when Deku felt someone staring at him.
Of course, this wasn't anything new to him. Every time he left the house, stares followed him, but this stare felt different. Most people looked at him with curiosity, and occasionally jealousy, but Deku didn't feel either of these things coming from this stare. This stare was a cold, calculating stare that had locked on to Deku.
Deku shivered and turned around, and his eyes met with the person who was staring at him. Endeavor. He was glaring at him. It was unsettling.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the stare, Endeavor was wondering why this kid felt so familiar. He couldn't get rid of the nagging feeling that he had seen this kid before. He knew he ha appeared in the news once or twice, but that wasn't it. When the kid turned around to meet his stare, a look of terror engulfed his face.
Deku shivered. He shouldn't recognize me. It was a year ago! And I was wearing a mask... but still.. I don't want to take any chances for them to find out about Stain. He turned his gaze away from Endeavor, and back to the match at hand.
Later...
Endeavor was walking throughout his house, when he passed Shoto. It was odd for Shoto to willingly go anywhere near Endeavor, so this must've been one of those times he accidentally ran into him. Endeavor took this chance to talk with Shoto.
"Hey, Shoto. What's up that one green haired kid all over the news recently?"
Shoto paused for a moment, as if trying to figure out why his father was talking to him. He eventually just shrugged, and told Endeavor, "He's all Might's adopted son. All Might actually brought him to class a few times. He participated in the training."
"Hmm." Endeavor hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "Was he good at fighting?"
Shoto scowled. He didn't want to tell his father about his suspicion that this kid was the Night Fox, but it would look bad if he didn't reply. "He doesn't look it, but he's pretty good at fighting."
Endeavor nodded, as if this confirmed his theory. "Alright." He replied, and he turned and left down the hall.
Meanwhile...
Shigaraki was ferociously scratching his neck. "That stupid kid... can't believe we had to move bases because of that idiot. And he ruined round one. I'm gonna rot his head off." He growled.
Kurogiri stood, washing a cup behind a counter similar to the counter from the previous base, but there were subtle differences. "All in good time, Shigaraki." He calmed. "We have more important things to deal with right now. Most of which are in regards to our visitor."
A voice came from behind Shigaraki. "I was wondering why you called me here."
Shigaraki smirked. "I was going to ask you to join us, but something tells me you will decline. So instead, perhaps I could just give you a bit of information."
"I wouldn't trust any information from you." The voice growled.
"Then don't let me give it to you, let the news." Shigaraki said. He clicked a button on a remote he was holding. The TV flickered on, depicting a kid wearing a blue hoodie. The hood was pulled up and his back was turned to the camera, but standing next to him was All Might. All Might was grinned, and laughed. "Don't be so shy, Midoriya!" He shouted. He tugged the hood off of the kid's head, revealing a mop of messy, green hair.
The voice paused for a moment. "I'm listening."
