My hubby introduced me to Google Docs and luckily he did because the My Story App on my laptop is acting up. I was trying to finish this chapter and I screeched like a pterodactyl trying to write it on My Story. For some reason it wouldn't allow me continue writing on there but at least I could copy and paste.
If I couldn't continue off it I wouldn't even be posting for another month XD I would be so pissed lol
Anyways, here you go!
Nezu stood outside Inko Midoriya's apartment door and he knocked. He didn't tell her he was coming… Instead he wanted to surprise her. Eraserhead had complained the woman was a lot smarter than he gave her credit for. He wanted some insight on Tomura Shigaraki from a civilian perspective.
Oh my.
He heard stomping like someone was rather angry. A smirk appeared on his mouth and he rocked back on his heels, waiting. The door flew open to reveal the green haired woman who looked pissed. Her eyes went downward and landed on the small creature before her.
"Can I help you?" she snapped.
He grinned, "Yes! I'm here on the request of Izuku Midoriya. May I come inside?"
Her angry expression melted into worry. Much to his surprise, Inko dragged Nezu in by his vest. He hadn't expected that at all. She slammed the down shut behind him and locked the door before looking through the peephole.
"Are you ok Mrs. Midoriya?"
"Yea, Shouta Aizawa has been here a few times already and I figured he would try and follow you."
She let out a relieved sigh and started walking towards the kitchen.
"I suppose my son is ok."
"He is, yes."
"Good. I figured so. My other son would've told me if something happened."
"I wasn't aware you had two children."
The woman turned around and gave him a sly smile. The principal caught on and started laughing.
"Ah I see!"
"I don't have any coffee left that's ready. Would you like me to make you some?"
"If you don't mind, I would rather have some tea."
"Sure. Izuku loves drinking peppermint tea. Is that ok?"
Nezu grinned, "Of course!"
Izuku's mother made the tea and slid it to him. She made herself a cup next, drumming her fingers against the counter. The principal could tell she was nervous but she certainly had one hell of a determined look.
"What will you do if your son is seen as a villain?" he asked finally.
She looked up from the microwave.
"I'll go with him."
"You've thought about this a lot."
"Of course. I am no stupid woman."
The small animal let out a cackle.
"He gets his genius from you it seems!"
"That he does!" Inko said with a laugh.
She sighed softly as she pulled the cup from the microwave and dropped in her tea bag.
"I have a house set up just in case we get a small party of reformed villains."
"Do you now?"
"Yes. Izuku explained it all a while back. Since he left to pursue this, I knew it was time to do my part."
Nezu reached into his vest and pulled out an envelope.
"This is for you."
She took it and sat down across from the UA principal.
"Do you have faith in your son?"
"Any I have left is all for him," she answered, opening it.
She unfolded the paper and looked at her son's handwriting.
Mom,
I got about eight days left when you get to read this. You can trust Nezu because I do. I'm working on it…. I promise…. I want you to be prepared for the worst- whatever that might be. He's still the same Mom. He hasn't changed much.
I hope that makes you feel better.
Love you,
Izuku
Inko grinned and closed it up, before holding it against her chest. She let out a sigh and looked at the principal."I love my son."
"He's already doing great things! He's a great child- a smart one at that. He will change the world."
"Thank you," she whispered, "Thank you so much."

Izuku bounced out into the living room to see Toga sitting there at the bar and Tomura was sitting in front of the TV. He swallowed hard and walked over to the blonde teen feeling nervous. He felt like she would be the easiest person to deal with if she didn't try and murder him in the process.
"Hey Toga."
She looked up from her book and her glass of chocolate milk.
"What's up Izuku?!" she cried with a big grin.
"I want to ask you a question…. well a few actually."
She tilted her head to the side curiously.
"Alright. Hop up here."
Izuku settled on the bar stool and flipped open his notebook. He clicked his pen and looked up at her.
"This won't have your name on it anywhere. I want to try and do something important. I need you to trust me though."
She gave a nod.
"Alright."
"Why did you become a villain?" he asked.
She looked mildly surprised.
"Because. My quirk was disgusting."
Izuku stopped writing and looked at her. Himiko Toga always wore a smile but she looked down right depressed as she chewed on her bottom lip. Her yellow eyes darkened a good bit and they looked watery.
"I tried to be normal but I couldn't. How could I? I hated how much I had to lie to myself and I never got help. My parents were afraid of me."
He put the pen down and hugged her. She jumped a little at the sudden affection but she hugged him back.
"Toga…. You're amazing. It's not your fault. If things would've gone differently, you could've been in the underground heroics with me."
"There would be no way-
"There was always a way. Always."
She looked down at him, tears falling down her pale cheeks.
"I know it hurts but I want to change it. I want to change it so people like us don't fall through the cracks. We'll make it better."
Tomura didn't move from his spot as he listened to Toga tell her tale. He pretended to listen to the TV but he listened to Izuku's words. The way she told him every gory detail and how sympathetic he was.
He believed him.
Izuku could've turned him over to the police the moment he found him on the street with that pervert but he didn't. If the world was going to change for the better then there had to be more people like the little hero. There had to be people who understood him and agreed with his way of thinking. The world would've fallen apart at the boy's hands had All for One had gotten a hold of him.
That made the decay villain uncomfortable. Those hands of Izuku's weren't made for destroying the world- they were made for saving it.

Izuku made his way for the next member of the League of Villains. He went to see Mr. Compress/ Atsuhiro Sako. The guy without his many different masks looked weird. There wasn't anything wrong with his face but it just felt weird looking at him. At least when he smiled it was nice.
His features seemed so sharp like it would be creepy if he whispered or something. The man was charismatic and he talked a lot waving his hands around but overall he was a nice and cautious guy. Izuku liked hearing him talk.
"Hey….um Sako, can I talk to you?" Izuku asked quietly.
The man dropped his book down, still holding it in his hands. He gave the tiny hero a small smile.
"Is everything ok my tiny hero?"
He nodded quickly with a goofy grin, "Y-yea! I want to learn about all of you…. Not to go against but for other reasons. I mean- if it's ok for me to ask you and all that."
"Ah, I see. Himiko told me you talked to her earlier."
"I did, yes."
The villain watched Izuku closely as he clicked his pen nervously. The boy looked so young- he certainly didn't look eight years old with those chubby freckled cheeks.
"So, I suppose you want to ask why I decided to jump in here huh?"
"Y-yea. Only if you want to tell me."
Sako placed his bookmark into his book and closed it with a soft snap.
"Before you decide to go on in and interrogate me, do tell me what you think I could've done better in my life- do you think I would've been a good hero or something?"
The boy nodded quickly, gripping his notebook and pen nervously.
"Alright. Tell me how I could be some kind of great hero instead of a villain. Amuse me then I will answer your questions…."
"Alright…. Well your quirk is amazing after all! Like when you kidnapped Kacchan- I mean Bakugou. You could've been working with me and Eraserhead! We saved a few people not that long ago from a human trafficking ring! You could help sneak people out without any of them being spotted or harmed in the process!"
Izuku flipped open his notebook and started scratching down everything he just said.
"You could make it easier for the police and other heroes to bring in criminals- especially the violent ones! OH! Also, if there was like a mental health call- assuming they couldn't hurt themselves inside of your marbles, you could help subdue an emotional and mentally distressed person without them harming themselves. Know what I mean?"
It was coming up like word vomit but the villain heard everything Izuku had spat out. He allowed himself to think over the words as they sunk in carefully. He hadn't really thought of that at all.
"Even though your quirk isn't considered 'flashy', you could've gone too UA or something similar. You would've passed the entrance exam in flying colors! You almost fight quirkless but you're more on the defense than anything else and that itself is a fighting style hard to learn because you gotta think several steps ahead! You kind of remind me of myself and I like that the most about you!"
Izuku finished blabbering and looked up to see the shell shocked expression on Sako's face. His smile fell over, seeing the expression wondering if he had said something wrong.
"I-I mean I'm sorry!" the little hero said quickly, "I didn't mean to upset you!"
"N-no! I never thought that far ahead about anything."
The villain looked thoughtful for several silent moments between them. Izuku waited patiently for the man to talk some more.
I hope I gave him a good enough answer. It certainly looked like it!
"Alright Izuku. I wanted to follow in my grandfather's footsteps. He was like robinhood! He helped the poor and took from the heroes who had more money than they could ever need! I wanted to follow in those footsteps."
The boy tilted his head to the side, "Why didn't you?"
Sako once again was at a loss for words.
"I wouldn't even attempt to arrest someone like that because I agree. I would be more than happy to give away a good bit of my wealth- if I were to become a famous hero. I do want to make sure my Mom is taken care of. She deserves it for standing by me. She's putting herself in danger."
"I see."
"Why are you here in the first place?" Izuku asked, writing a few notes into his notebook.
"Where else would I belong, tiny hero?" the villain asked curiously.
Izuku couldn't answer him but he understood.
The answer was no where.

Izuku really wanted to talk to Dabi but he wasn't looking for a death wish honestly. Maybe it would be best to save him for last after all. He felt like the flame villain would burn him down to nothing and that wasn't something he wanted too soon.
"Hey Himiko."
The girl looked up from phone and flashed him a dazzling smile.
"What's up cutie?"
"Do you think Twice would answer some questions or no?"
She sat up a little straighter.
"Just…. Just know that society hurt him Izuku. There's not any rhyme or reason to it at all. He got screwed a lot worse than the rest of us."
He nodded.
"Just tell what you think of him and I can tell him! He loves when I tell him stuff!" she said with a smile.
"Would you like me to write it all down?" he asked quietly.
She nodded quickly and made room for him on the couch.
Twice/ Jin Bubaigawara
Clone Quirk
He would've been amazing in the medical field. I can only speculate and everything but if he is able to create a clone that's an exact copy all the way to their atoms, he could've saved lives. Lots of them. Anyone from babies, to children to adults. The people who had no hope…. He would be an excellent doctor.
He would've been the kind of hero to be out on the front lines, helping his friends.
He would've been able to do underground work or day time heroics. He could operate with one other person and take out villain operations. If he created a mass amount of clones, he could call them "Swarm" like a superpower move! He could've been anything if the world hadn't failed him!
Izuku pulled out the paper and handed it to Himiko.
"I think this is everything I can say since I don't know more. I hope it's enough!"
He managed to copy the exact words he had written down for Himiko and scribbled down a few more observations as she walked away.
He glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost dinner time now. He could do Spinner and Dabi tomorrow.

Izuku helped Tomura make grilled turkey sandwiches for everyone and then they all sat down to watch a movie. By the time they finished it, Twice and Himiko were laying on each other asleep. Dabi got up quickly without a single word and went to his room.
Izuku stood up and stretched his little body. It was nice that things didn't crack like they used to…. Well- for now.
There is almost a week left now- almost.
He used the restroom and walked back to Tomura's room slowly. It had been a long and emotional day for him as well as the others. He peeked in to see Tomura hadn't come to bed yet. It was barely after nine anyways.
He grabbed his notebook out of the desk drawer and started writing a few things down. He yawned and continued for another half hour until Tomura walked in looking tired.
"You ok?"
The villain shrugged and pulled off his shirt. It was covered in grease from them cooking dinner but he had been too lazy to change earlier but he wasn't that much of a heathen- he didn't wanna lay in his bed dirty. He grabbed a plain gray shirt from his dresser and put it on.
"You're not gonna change?"
Izuku looked up.
"I can if you want me too but all my clothes are dirty. I forgot to wash them."
Tomura went through his drawer and threw a shirt at the boy, smacking him in the face. The little hero pulled it off his head and looked at it. It literally said 'I hate everyone'.
"I can tell this is definitely your shirt."
"Shut up ya little shit."
Tomura kicked off his pants and grabbed out a pair of pajama bottoms.
"Did you get all the shit you wanted today?" he asked, watching as Izuku stripped out of his little kid clothes.
"I still gotta talk to Spinner and Dabi. I kind of fear for my life though…. Dabi might murder me."
Tomura snorted, "He would. It depends on his mood if he would make it quick or slow."
The boy shuddered and pulled on the shirt Tomura gave him. The thing was down to his ankles.
"You have a really long torso."
"Well, don't be a short ass kid."
"Whatever! I did what I had to do!"
Tomura threw himself on the bed and plucked the notebook from the boy's fingers.
"Can I read it?"
Izuku gave him the weirdest look.
"I… um…. Are you sure you want to?"
"You act like reading it will scar me for life."
"It might."
"Fine, I'll read it after you're asleep."
Well, it didn't take long for Izuku to pass out. He laid out on the bed like a starfish, snoring away, plastering Tomura against his bedroom wall. As carefully as possible, he flipped through the sixty something pages Izuku had written down.
It took him over two hours to read everything only because he stopped reading and would think about this kid's ramblings. Izuku wasn't just any kid. He was a smart one. He thought everything out carefully.
Is he trying to save us? Did… he recruit someone to help us?
His heart clenched and his stomach felt funny like he wanted to puke. That was a stupid thought. There was no way in hell that Izuku managed to have that kind of pull.
