My name is Izumi Midoriya. I was born and raised in the castle by my father the king alongside my twin brother Izuku for seventeen years. One day however, everything changed when my father was killed by one of the lords. My brother and I were taken to the prison and held there for many days until a week after everything happened someone came to visit us.
"Come on, let's get you two out of here," a female voice said.
"Huh, Lady Fuyumi, what are you doing here?" Izuku asked.
"What about your father? Won't he punish you for helping his prisoners?" I added.
"Don't worry, he's my father, he wouldn't hurt me," she said, opening the cell and leading us out.
"Hey, what's going on over there?!" a guard shouted.
"Quick, I'll hold them off. Go," she said, running in the direction of the guards.
Izuku and I ran off in the opposite direction. We ran till we hit a dead end.
"Izumi, there's a small hole," Izuku said, pointing up. "I can't fit through, but you can."
"Izuku, no," I said.
"Izumi, go find someone still loyal, tell them that you are to inherit them. They will understand what you mean. I'm sorry to do this to you," he said, looking at me.
"Izuku, I'm not leaving without you," I said.
"There they are!" a man yelled.
"Izumi! Get out of here! NOW!" Izuku yelled, running to intercept the guards.
I climbed up the wall and through the hole. I then ran through the woods and ran as far and fast as I could. I ran for what felt like days when someone approached me.
"Is this my end?" I asked as they approached.
"Your Highness!" a man shouted as arrows shot out of the trees. A troop of knights on horses ran out and started to battle my pursuers.
"Your Highness, Lady Shimura is waiting for you. Go find her, we'll hold them off," one of the knights said.
"Thank you," I said, running back to where they were coming from. I ran until I saw the person I was looking for. "Lady Shimura," I said.
"Lady Izumi, I'm glad to see you're alive. Let's go to Aston, the castle your father left you and your brother. Speaking of, where is Lord Izuku?" she asked, removing her helmet.
"He didn't make it out. He said that I am to inherit them and that you would know what I was talking about," I said.
"Alright, we'll talk about that when we get to the castle. Here," she said, offering me a hand. I took it and she set me in front of her and we rode off. A day later we got to a castle with blue roofs. "Welcome to your new home, let's get your wounds bandaged up then we can plan our next move."
"Alright," I said, letting her lead me to the castle. A couple of days later I was back up and walking. "Lady Shimura, how are you?" I asked.
"I should be asking you that. How are you holding up Lady Izumi?" she asked.
"Better, I just want to get back to work," I sighed.
"Well, you need to gain the support of the local Nobles to truly become the Lord of this castle," Lady Shimura said. "And you can just call me Nana or Lady Nana."
"Alright, well how would you recommend I do that Nana?" I asked.
"Well, marrying one would be the best way in my mind, and I might know just the one for you and asked them to meet us today," Nana said.
"Nana, I'm not sure if you are aware of the fact that I prefer girls," I said.
"Well, I would say it's a good idea she took that into account when she asked me to come," a mature voice said behind me.
"Lady Yaoyorozu?" I asked, turning to see the tall elven woman wearing a thin red dress. She had beautiful raven hair and onyx eyes. I remembered meeting her when I was younger when her family visited my father.
"Greetings Lady Izumi, I'm sorry about what happened to your father. My family can't believe Lord Enji would kill your father to take the throne, and I want to support you and I would love it if you would have me as your wife," the elven woman said.
"Um, odd question but I feel the need to know, how old are you?" I asked.
"I am only one hundred twenty, but that is the equivalent of twenty six to humans," she explained.
"Alright, it's my interest in what other races are like," I admitted.
"Not a problem, so?"
"Yes, I would love to have you as my wife if your family would help me get revenge on the man who killed my father," I said.
"Lovely, now I suppose it's time to arrange the wedding," Nana said.
"Yes, I do agree. I'm guessing you've already thought of that though and have some plans already," I said, looking at the knight
"There are some, I do need to ask what Temple you would like," she said.
"Hmm, is there a temple to Nemuri, The Midnight?" I asked.
"Yes, the Goddess of love, fertility, and night," Nana said, listing what her domains were.
"And the patron Goddess of Elves and Demi-humans," Lady Yaoyorozu added.
"I think she'll be the right one if you are alright with that Lady Yaoyorozu," I said, looking at her.
"Of course, anything for you my Lord. And please, call me Momo," she said, a graceful smile on her face.
We spent the rest of the day in the castle catching up and talking about what we want for our new future that will now be together. A week later I was in a traditional suit with a cape over my left shoulder while Momo stood next to me in a white dress.
"I now pronounce you Lord and Lady, you may kiss your bride," the priestess said.
Momo and I turned to each other and leaned forwards as our lips crashed and we shared our first kiss. Her lips were soft and felt amazing. We pulled away from each other and I saw the smile creep onto her lips.
"Everyone, Lord Izumi and Lady Momo!" the priestess announced.
The two of us looked at each other and walked down the aisle to the reception where we didn't get to see the other while we walked around and talked to the people and nobles of the land as well as receiving gifts from some of them.
"Greetings, Your Highness," a mature voice said behind me. I turned to see a woman wearing a red and yellow dress.
"Lady Eva, how are you?" I asked, looking at the Noblewoman.
"Well, how are you?" she asked.
"As well as one could expect. Oh, I heard about your husband, I'm so sorry," I said.
"It's alright, he was doing what he wanted and stood by your father's side till the end," she said. "I would give you something but-"
"Don't worry about it, your husband was one of the best knights protecting my father and did what he could to protect him. Worry about yourself and don't be afraid to ask me for anything," I said.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm certain. Go enjoy yourself," I said, smiling at her politeness.
"Alright, well if you're ever in town come stop by my house, I'd love to have you over," she said, turning and walking off.
The music suddenly became a fun, jovial tune I had never heard before. It was a fast paced song and as I looked for the musicians noticed that they were seen.
"Can you believe this music is being played?" a nobleman asked.
"I guess some people allow the tunes of beasts to be heard," another man said.
"Nana," I said, walking up to the guard.
"Yes, Your Highness?" Nana asked, turning to me.
"Who is the musician?" I asked.
"I shall inquire from the servants," she said, turning to a guard and sending them off. A few minutes they came back and whispered something to her. "It would seem that she is a demi-human slave one of the other lords brought as to gift you with her songs."
"Can you have the lord and musician both brought to me after this song?" I asked.
"It shall be done," Nana said, looking at the guard who ran off.
"Lord Izumi, this music is so enchanting," Momo said, walking up to me.
"I agree, I asked for the musician and the lord who brought them," I said, motioning to her seat.
"Then I will join you in listening to this music," she said, taking a seat. "I never would've guessed how much energy a reception would take," she whispered to me.
"Agreed," I whispered.
We sat there for a couple of minutes before the song ended and another one started up with a notably different tune. A couple moments later a well dressed man walked up to us with a very young demi-human in a tan dress that looked like it had seen better days.
"You asked to see us," the gentleman said, bowing.
"Yes, what is your name?" I asked.
"Lord Kyotoku Jirou, Your Highness," he said.
"And what is your name?" I asked, looking at the demi-human.
"She is-" he started.
"She can speak for herself," I interrupted. "Your name please."
"I am Kimiko," she said.
"Well, Ms Kimiko, your music was amazing and I wanted to thank you for playing, but I am curious about your age," Momo said.
"It is of no importance, I am not as good at music playing as people you have listened to," she said, messing up on grammar.
"As for her age she is around eleven," the lord answered.
"Lord Jirou, I must ask, she is your slave no?" I asked.
"Why, yes she is," he said.
"Since both my wife and I appreciate the music she makes, I would like to purchase her," I said.
"Why of course, Your Highness, you can have her if you so want," he said.
"How much would you ask?"
"Nothing from you, take her as you will," he said, bowing deeper. "I hope to be of any assistance to you, as my family was chased out of the Capital for helping your father, so if something small like this would help I am more than glad to give her to you for no payment," he added.
"Lord Jirou, if I remember you have a daughter, and my wife will need a Lady-in-waiting, I would offer this position as payment for her, as I can not just accept her. I will also give you an acre of farmland to help you regain your family's position," I said.
"Surely you jest, my daughter is not worthy of such a position," he said.
"I do not jest, and I believe that she is, knowing what you did for my father," I added, smiling.
"As you wish, my Lord. My daughter will be here in the morning," he said, the disbelief in his voice relevant.
"I will make sure everything is prepared," Nana said, looking at the other guard near us who nodded and stayed while she walked off with the lord and slave.
"What was that about?" Momo asked.
"He's the lord who warned my father about the assassination attempt on him before I was born," I explained. "I had heard that him and his daughter barely got out with some of their slaves and servants. His wife was killed in the attack on the capital. Trust me when I say you will like her," I added.
"I trust your decision. I did agree to marry you after all," she said.
We separated and walked throughout the reception accepting gifts, congratulations, and advice. Eventually the night was over and we went to my bed chambers. We both changed into a sleeping gown and sat down on the bed next to each other.
"So, now that we are married tomorrow you will be named Lord of Aston. But what is your plan for tonight?" Momo asked.
"I have an idea or two," I said, pulling myself up to her face and capturing her lips as we fell backwards on the bed and had the first night of many together.
AN-
So, my anti-hero fic wasn't working. I had a couple of ideas but couldn't get them to work in the fic so I'm scraping that and decided to take a couple of ideas I've had and mash them together. Not all the characters will be MHA and might just be one's I made up since I couldn't think of one that could fit my idea for the character and decided to make a whole new character. Now, for clarification Izumi is 16 and this will include some age gaps with lovers like Momo, but she is an elf and they age differently. Also I am not going to write smut but might change that on a later date. Make sure to follow, favorite, comment, and kudos! Link Out!
