Izuku watched the new JP billboard chart rankings with little attention.
He knew already who the top ten would be.
who had strangely gone down a rank despite her involvement in the Shie Hassaikai raid.
old timer Yoroi Musha still keeping up with those far younger than himself.
... he was a fucking washing machine how the hell did he get so far up in the ranks?
Woods it made sense ol' mornin' wood here had been saving incredible amounts of lives in his time.
who honestly reminded the greenette of Kirishima now that he thought of it.
who has them muscular thighs that tell no lies.
the edgy ninja who probably got the idea for his costume after he saw Naruto for the first time.
Jeanist who hadn't even bothered to show up... the handsome prick.
the winged hero who liked chicken... so there's a cannibalistic hero then neat.
then there was the dumpster fire himself Endeavor who prized himself for his A+ parenting of his four children and how he wonderfully treated his wife. Why she enjoyed his loving so much that she had to take a vacation at a mental hospital to recover from it. (*cough* sarcasm *cough*)
Then again wouldn't you go crazy if your husband's pubes were made of fire.
Hawks decided that this was the perfect time to state his beliefs of heroes. More specifically that he wanted the people here, the people below him in the ranks to stop being so tame and subdued.
And for them to speak like real heroes.
Izuku shook his head at the words of the hero who was not much older than him.
'Speak like real heroes huh?' The greenette looked at the screen as the winged hero introduced the only hero that ranked higher than him. 'I suppose some would want that.'
'Especially if their current heroes were speaking as dreary as ours currently were.'
After the billboard charts were shown Izuku left the dorms. Saying that he needed to be somewhere.
Izuku walked through the school and eventually came to the principal's office. After he knocked on the door the mammal's voice echoed out.
"Come in!"
Izuku sat down in a padded chair in front of the principal's desk as the white furred mammal smiled at him.
"You wanted to speak to me about my housing sir." Izuku began looking at his principal.
Nezu nodded. "Yes. Do you remember what I said about your housing?" He asked the boy who nodded.
"Well." The white furred mammal reached forward grabbing his phone and showed the boy a picture of a small house. "This home should accommodate you, Shinichi-Chan, a nurse to care for him while you aren't home, and." Nezu looked at Izuku. "Eri-Chan if she is placed into your custody."
Izuku's eyes widened in surprise. "What!?" He asked his face filled with shock and surprise. "You'd... how can you even think about placing her in my custody after what I did?"
Nezu looked at him for a moment. His black beady eyes staring at him as he thought.
"Midoriya-Kun you're not the first human to do a monstrous act and yet still be a wonderful person."
Izuku looked at the principal for a moment. "You sound as if you're speaking from experience sir."
Nezu nodded. "I am." The mammal said before giving the boy a small smile. "I was experimented on by humans when I was far younger. They caused me immense pain... but they had no idea of my sentience." He said looking to the roof of the room in thought as he spoke. "When they did... not all of them apologized but one did." Nezu looked at Izuku once more. "He bowed to me pressing his forehead to the floor in front of my paws as he begged for my forgiveness."
Izuku looked at his principal. "I... did you forgive him sir... did you forgive someone who did such a terrible act?" He asked his eyes clouded with thoughts of his "brother".
"Yes." Nezu said making Izuku look away. "But it wasn't the same as the situation between you and your rapist. My former tormentor wished for forgiveness just as you do now in regards to Eri and I forgave him just as Eri has you because he was truly regretful of his actions. Just as you are and just as your "brother" is not."
Izuku looked away from Nezu and stared at his feet as he thought. "But is someone as vile as m-"
The boy's statement was cut off by Nezu hitting his head.
"Midoriya-Kun." Nezu said giving Izuku a saddened look. "You aren't vile. You have done more heroic acts than a great many of our modern heroes." Before he have the boy a bright smile. "Besides you saved Eri-Chan and she does seem to care for you like a sibling."
Izuku rubbed his head and sighed before speaking. "Alright then... when can-"
"Shinichi-Chan can be moved in at anytime." Nezu interrupted answering Izuku's question. "We just need to get a nurse for him and a hero bodyguard." The mammal stated. "And Eri-Chan can stay with you during the times when school is not in session."
Tears prickled at Izuku's eyes. "T-Thank you!" He yelled standing up and pulling the principal into a crushing hug.
Nezu patted the boy's head as he chuckled. "No need to thank me Midoriya-Kun."
Izuku set the small mammal down and bowed to him. "Where is the home anyway sir?" The greenette asked after a moment.
"It's been built on U.A's grounds." Nezu said making Izuku quirk a brow.
"If it's on U.A grounds why would I need a hero bodyguard?" He asked making Nezu Izuku sigh.
"Well it wouldn't be the first time your "brother" has broken into U.A property."
Izuku sighed and nodded.
"Yeah." His green eyes filled with a melancholy look. "I guess you're right."
A massive black skinned form rested on all fours in a all consuming darkness. It was waiting.
For it's creator.
Oh how it missed him. The black haired boy who showed it love and treated him kinder than any other.
It wanted to show him the love he had always shown it. And when the blue haired one showed it a way it could the black skinned form readily agreed.
It grabbed it's creator and showed him all the love it felt for him. Yet it felt... wrong.
It's love made it's creator cry, twist, and squirm in pain around it. He cried out in pain, begged it to stop, and hit it's chest as the blue haired one laughed and touched himself.
And yet the next day it's creator seemed to forget the pain. Petting it as he always had and treating it no different.
It made the black skinned form feel... strange. But it forgot as soon as it's creator petted it's head once more.
And then it's creator disappeared leaving it alone.
Until now.
"High-End we expect great things from you." Came the voice of it's master. He reminded it of it's creator with his long dark hair. "Please try to follow through in your mission where your fellow nomu failed."
High-End's bright yellow eyes focused on it's scarred master as it tried to speak.
"L-Leave it to... L-" It stuttered as it tried to respond. "Le-Leave it to me M-Maste-Master."
