Aizawa loves 1-A.

He's never shown it to them, but he loves them.

They can get under his skin from time to time, but he'll always love them like the family he never had.

On his first day of teaching 1-A, he had thought that he would have to expel every last one of them and pay for the Green haired kid's hospital bill. Thank god he figured out how to work that shit out without breaking all of his bones. Aizawa thought to himself when Izuku first used Full Cowl in front of class 1-A.

Aizawa found it crazy that his class of rowdy first years managed to make it through the first semester. Considering everything that happened during it.

And Aizawa found it even crazier that he managed to forget one of his student's birthdays.

What the fuck is wrong with me? I remember everyone else's birthday… but not her birthday? What is going on with you Shota? Aizawa asks himself, upset at his own foolishness. It had been 15 minutes since he made the discovery of the pinkets bolted to his kitchen and gathered the ingredients and items to prepare Mina's favorite dish, Fried okra.

He knew that Fried okra was her favorite since she first attended U.A., but when she had moved into the dorms with the rest of 1-A; Mina had given him an envelope marked with his name, he took it from her and put it in his back pocket, and decided to read it when he had gotten the chance.

He hasn't opened it yet.

"I still didn't open that letter Ashido gave me…" Aizawa realized as he put the okra in the skillet to fry and went back to his coffee table to pick up the envelope marked "Mr Aizawa~" in purple.

He opened it and found it not to be a note from the pinkette, but rather from her aunt. Aizawa heard of her, and how she adopted Mina after some… complications earlier in the pink girl's life. But he only recognized her as a retired pro hero, Tabasco Sauce.

He decided to look her up on his database once he gave Mina the okra.

"Now let's see what this is all about..." Aizawa said to himself, and began to read the letter the retired pro hero sent him.

Dear Shota Aizawa,

As you know, Mina's favorite food is okra and loves it when it's fried, however, she will only eat it when it's prepared the way I make it, and as I will be unable to make it for her for my own reasons. I normally prepare her Fried okra on holidays or her birthday. The recipe is the same, with one added ingredient and a special thing you have to do when serving it to her. All you need to do is to prepare the fried okra like you normally would; then sprinkle some sugar on it. Sounds odd, I know, but she likes it that way. Now, what you have to do when you serve it to her is….

The words Aizawa had read next were so ridiculous he could feel shame just from thinking of doing it.

"I'm NEVER doing that," Aizawa promised himself, "and I sure as hell won't be doing it today." He said, finishing his self-oath, taking the now fried okra out of the skillet, put it on a plate, then when over to his pantry so he could find some sugar for the crispy okra.

"Whew… finally done, now to get this to Ashido," Aizawa said, satisfied with his work. "and to get a bowl to put this in…" he then dug through his cabinets to find a bowl that could fit all of the crispy, oily, sugar coated okra that he had prepared for the pink girl with horns.

After 3 straight minutes of searching, he finally found a bowl the correct size, and began to put each piece of okra in the bowl one by one. Once he was finally done, he put the cover on and made sure that it was sealed completely.

Aizawa grabbed his phone, capture weapon in case something happens or if one of the students acts up, his keys, and of course, the food. "Okay, I think that's everything… wait, do I still have that megapack of Pocky sticks..?" he wondered, and went back over to his pantry and searched for the big red box, full of smaller red boxes that have the sweet, chocolate covered biscuit sticks that he's seen Mina have now and then as a snack. He just thought it would be a nice touch.

Once he finally found the chocolate sticks, he started for the door when his phone started to vibrate in his pocket, meaning that someone was calling him. It was either someone from staff, friends, or Izuku.

And would you look at that? It's the green eyed kid.

"Speak of the devil…Perhaps something for the party..." Aizawa mumbled to himself, pressing accept call, then putting his phone up to his ear.

"What do you want Midoriya? I'm just about to leave." Aizawa asked, "Make it qui-" Aizawa was interrupted by some shouting followed by something being thrown and slamming against the wall, which led to Iida, as always, shouting at whoever had thrown the object. "Crazy kids….heh." Aizawa chuckled, careful not to let anyone on the opposite end hear him. What would those guys do without me…? Aizawa thought to himself, he would've gone deeper into this, but Izuku had interrupted his thinking by shouting his name through the phone. It's clear that whatever the green haired kid had to say, this was important.

Aizawa listened to the One for All inheritor the best he could, despite the noise in the background.

Then his eyes went huge.

Mina?

Not in her room?

Missing?

Oh no.

Not good.

"...Meet me outside the dorms in 5 minutes. We need to find Ashido." Aizawa said, doing his best to contain his distress, one of his students just went missing.

I have to find her!

And fast.

Seriously, this okra's starting to get cold.


JULY 30TH, 2045, 3:05 PM, 7 MONTHS BEFORE [REDACTED].

Izuku had the perfect plan.

Mina was supposed to leave her room at 3:00, and go to the common room and have the class come out of their hiding spots and shout "SURPRISE!", then bombard her with their gifts for her.

….Mina had never left her room.

The class has been hiding for the past 10 minutes, waiting to surprise Mina.

"What the fuck is taking racoon eyes so long Deku? I can't stay this way forever," Bakugou asked the One for All inheritor quietly, anger in his voice. Bakugou was crouching behind the kitchen counter, his legs beginning to get tired from the uncomfortable position they were in.

"Chill out Kacchan, I'm sure Ashido will be out any second," Izuku responded, not even trying to be as quiet as Bakugou was. "She's probably just tired from training, it was pretty rough yesterday." Izuku added.

"I can go check on her, maybe she's still asleep." Momo said worryingly, Mina always leaves her room at 3:00 on Sundays, and everyone found it odd how Mina never left her room. "I'll go see if there's something wrong." Momo got up from her hiding spot and made her way to the stairs. Before she left the group, she turned around and said, "Shoto-kun, I'll text you if Ashido-san comes back downstairs with me, okay?" Momo told Todoroki with an endearing tone. Todoroki nodded in response to Momo's plan, and checked his phone to make sure the ringer was on. Momo gave a small smile and wave before turning back around and ran upstairs.

I have to tell her soon… Todoroki thought to himself.

I have to tell him soon… Momo thought to herself as she ran up the stairs.

JULY 30TH, 2045, 3:08 PM, 7 MONTHS BEFORE [REDACTED].

"Ashido-san! It's me, Momo! Are you awake?" Momo called out for the acid producer through the door, knocking on her room door. "We have a surprise for you downstairs!" Momo continued, still knocking on the door.

"…" No response. Mina's room was completely silent, she must be asleep. There was nothing but the sound of wind, Mina's window must be open. Wait….Ashido-san had the window in her room removed when she at the start of the year… then that only means...

"H-hey, I'm gonna come in, okay…?" Momo told the horned girl through the door, slowly turning the doorknob, slowly creeping it open. "A-Ashido san…? Are you there…?" Momo called for Mina, before opening the door all the way.

"Ashido-sa-"

"...Oh no."

There was a big hole in the wall.

Mina was gone.

Instead of texting Todoroki like she said she would, she called him.

"...We have a problem."

"A-Ashido-san's….she's…. she's gone."

Not even 10 seconds passed when she could hear the chaos erupting downstairs, through the phone and in reality.

This was bad.

REALLY bad.


JULY 30TH, 2045, 3:12 PM, 7 MONTHS BEFORE [REDACTED].

"THIS IS YOUR FUCKING FAULT DEKU!" Bakugou shouted at the green haired boy, throwing a chair at him. Izuku had activated One for All at the last second and threw himself to the ground to dodge the flying chair, which had hit and broke apart on the wall behind him. "Katsuki Bakugou! Please refrain from swearing and throwing objects at your classmates!" Iida shouted at the explosive quirk user, helping Izuku back up. "Are you alright Izuku? You threw yourself down pretty ha-"

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine, it would take more than a chair or throwing myself on the ground like that to take me down." Izuku assured the blue-haired boy, dusting himself off and putting the phone back up to his ear. It was loud, everyone was shouting, again, so Izuku did the best he could to tell Aizawa what that Mina had gone missing.

"Aizawa, Ashido isn't in her bedroom! We were waiting for her to come downstairs to surprise her for her birthday!" Izuku could hear Aizawa give a small gasp at this through the phone. Izuku then continued, "When Momo went to go check on her, she found out she wasn't there, and there was a huge hole in her wall! Ithink she left using her quirk!" Izuku finished, heaving for air as he finally finished explaining-nah, more like shouting the situation to the quirk eraser.

Once he got himself back together, Izuku put the phone back up to his ear and listened to what his teacher had to say, plugging his other ear with his left finger so he could hear him past all the shouting. "Okay. Alright. I'll be there." Izuku responded to the long haired man through the phone, then hung up. Izuku put his phone in his pocket and turned to the class, who had all gone silent when they noticed that Izuku was on the phone the whole time.

"...Aizawa needs me to help find Mina, I'll be back soon," he told the class; then made his way to the door. "I'll text you any updates." he says before he leaves; closing the door behind him.


JULY 30TH, 2036, 9:24 AM, 9 YEARS, 7 MONTHS BEFORE [REDACTED].

"HOW MANY TIMES DO I NEED TO TELL YOU?! YOU DON'T GET ANYTHING FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY YOU FUCKING FREAK! YOU DON'T DESERVE ONE!" A feminine, but harsh voice shouted at Mina. "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY SIGHT BEFORE I FUCKING KILL YOU!" The voice threatened, throwing a beer bottle at the pinkette.

Move.

Mina didn't move.

Not that it mattered, her mother's aim was dogshit when she was drunk, and the bottle had completely missed her, instead, it hit an antique vase that has been in the Ashido family for years. Mina heard the vase shatter to pieces along with the beer bottle.

Mina gasped and whipped her head around to see what damage had been done, and it was far worse than she thought it would be.

You should have let it hit you, moron.

But it would have hurt…..and she completely missed me...

AND?! BETTER YOU GET HURT THAN THAT VASE GETTING BROKEN! WHO KNOWS WHAT SHE'LL DO TO US NOW?!

I'm sorry…

"MINA!" The voice shouted.

"WHAT DID YOU FUCKING DO?" The owner of the voice ran out of the kitchen; her hand balled into a fist. The lady was Mina's mother, she was born quirkless, meaning no horns or pink skin. Which was part of the reason her husband left her.

"I-I-I didn't do anything…." Mina stuttered as she told her abusive mother, trying to make eye contact, only for her to instantly look away when she sees the scowl on the quirkless woman's face. Upon hearing the horned girl's denial of causing the vase to be broken, she grabbed Mina by the shirt and slammed her against a wall.

HARD.

Her head slammed against the wall, making Mina yelp in pain. But her mother didn't care, she never cared about her. She hated her.

Mina's mom leaned in close, then hissed in her ear, "What did you just say?" Mina was blasted by the overwhelming scent of alcohol on her mother's breath. It was strong enough to make her almost vomit.

...What did I do to deserve this…?

You existed, idiot.

….I…

Mina started to cry.

"I-I'm sorry.." Mina struggled to say through her tears. She heard her mother grunt at the small pink girl's apology and braced for whatever her mom was planning to do to her.

"..."

Nothing happened.

Instead, Mina was released by her abuser's tight grip, and slumped to the floor.

"...Mommy?" Mina called out for her mother, something was wrong, she would normally be getting a beating from her mother, but her mother wasn't doing anything, she was just….standing there.

"You're sorry...?" Mina's mom whispered. Her voice sma Mina started to shake out of fear, still crying.

"You're SORRY?" she shouted, "WHERE'S YOUR APOLOGY FOR FUCKING EXISTING?! YOU'RE THE REASON MY HUSBAND LEFT ME! YOU'RE THE REASON NO ONE IN MY FAMILY WILL TALK TO ME! YOU'RE A FREAK." She finished before storming away from the crying girl and ran upstairs, but before she got all the way up she turned around to tell her daughter one last thing.

"...I hate you."

Then she was gone, and a door upstairs slammed shut, which made Mina wince.

Mina sobbed. She knew she didn't deserve this, then why is it happening to her?

You know she's right. You're the reason she's like this. Everything she had to go through.

It's.

Your.

Fault.

Please….please stop…..I just want this to end….

Then fucking end it.

How….?

Just follow my word.


JULY 30TH, 2036, 9:45 AM, 9 YEARS, 7 MONTHS BEFORE [REDACTED].

Mina trudged up the stairs.

Hmph. I didn't think you'd actually go through with this.

I just want this to end….I can't take it anymore…

Whatever. You know what to do, right?

I know…

Mina was scared. She didn't know what was going to happen once she did it. But she couldn't live her life like this. She had to end it. When she finally made it to her mother's room, she stood at the door. Staring it down as if it was a stronger, taller man standing in her way.

Open the door. Silently.

Mina obeyed and slowly turned the knob, careful not to make a sound. Once she fully turned the golden piece of metal, she slightly pushed the door open, just enough to see inside.

Her mother was sleeping on her bed, but why this soon? It's only the morning.

Stupid drunk bitch. Get in there. You know what to do.

Mina obeyed and opened the door all the way, and creeped over to where her mother was resting, and climbed on.

Kill her.

...

Mina obeyed.


WOW this took longer than I wanted it to, this was supposed to come out in the middle of the week but some things...happened during the week... I might keep things like this and have chapters release the same day as an episode for the anime drops, or just upload whenever. I don't have anything else to say but thank you for all the support you guys have given me.

Stay tuned for chapter 3.
