Aside from that, Hisashi makes his first debut of the story. Hurrah!

Izuku Defense Squad(?)
"Countless memories of both good and bad come at the strangest moments."
Date: September 15 (7 days after the Deathsinger incident)
Time: 3:30 PM
Location: Undisclosed Police Force station
Police officer Sansa Tamakawa, a lean young man with the appearance of a human, but a head of ginger tabby cat instructed the witnesses to go inside the interrogation room while waiting for Detective Naomasa. He even assures them that they will be safe here and no one will going to force them to answer questions, in case the scenario would go intense, but he didn't think Naomasa is like that kind of person.
Inside the cool ventilated room, it consisted of the young boy, Kota Izumi and the complete well-known pro-hero group: Tiger, Mandalay, Pixie-bob, and Ragdoll. They all sat on each chair as their hands placed on a table, looking around and did casual talks for them not to get bored.
Before Officer Sansa said his final instructions, he looked over to the nervous and shaky young boy as he offered him a bar of chocolate and lollipops in which Kota took them gladly and thanked the young man.
"Remember what I told you, Kota. Before answering the detective's questions, don't ever forget to take a deep breath and close your eyes. It will lessen your anxiety level and stress." He smiled at the boy before patting his head.
Kota nodded slowly and smiled a bit. "Y-Yes, sir. U-Uhmm….is your detective scary…?"
The young boy's question made his relatives chuckle.
Tiger, the big brother of the pro-hero group reacted. "I worked with the detective before. He's down to earth type of man so don't worry."
"Our detective is good with young children like you and I also reminded him to be gentle since your encounter with the Deathsinger is still fresh in your memory." He nodded. "I'll leave you guys here while I make a follow-up call to our detective~" He waved at the boy before closing the room door.
Kota shared the treats to his relatives as he started to take a bite of the creamy chocolate bar. His highest nervous level made him hungry though. He mumbled while eating his treat. "Y-Yummy…"
Sansa returned to the police front desk and was about to make a follow-up call to the detective until he heard briskly footsteps approaching inside the station. And yes, the panting and tired looking Naomasa finally arrived. The officer let out a sigh of relief and later saluted him.
"Good Afternoon, sir. I'm glad you've arrived."
Naomasa saluted him back, catching his breath. "D-Did I make them wait for too long?"
"They arrived for almost an hour ago."
"I-I see….A-Apologies for my car had an awful flat tire and I couldn't find the nearest gas station so that I decided to rent a bike instead just to go here.." ^^" He rubbed his temples before looking at him. "Now, where are they now?"
"I placed them inside the interrogation room, waiting for you to arrive, sir."
He smiled. "Perfect. Do you have a video recorder and a tripod in your office?"
"Yes, sir. It is in our supplies room."
"Go get them for me. We need those to record our documentation." He walked towards the interrogation room door as Sansa complied and went quickly through the said room.
Naomasa took a deep breath and closed his eyes for five seconds while holding the doorknob and after a moment of short pondering, he slowly opened the door and to see the group who wanted to be the defendants/witnesses.
"Good Afternoon, guys. Sorry for being late."
Kota almost jumped from his seat upon the sudden appearance of the detective. The pro-hero group stood up and made salutations. Naomasa saluted back before dismissing them.
"We're glad that you're here, detective! Our anxiety levels were so damn high while waiting for your arrival~!" Pixie-bob teased, stood up and stretched her body. Removing the tensions on her body.
Sansa, later on, walked inside the room to prepare and install the camera. Kota looked up at the detective and muttered words.
"He looks so young~" He blinked, making the detective glanced at him and smiled.
"You must be the only child of the late Water Hose duo. I worked with your parents back then and I have my highest respects. You should be proud of them." He placed his hand on other's shoulder and gave a pat.
"T-Thank you, sir…" The young boy blushed and looked away with a pout.
After the installation time of audio/video visuals around the room, the detective instructed them to stand up and raised their right hands before telling the oath.
"Before we start our interview, kindly raised your right hand and repeat the oath after me:
Oath: I swear that the evidence that I shall give, shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God.
Affirmation: I solemnly affirm that the evidence that I shall give, shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Once they said the oath, they all sat on their seats as the detective wore his eyeglasses and grabbed his notebook with pen attached before looking at them.
"The video is now recording as I shall now begin answering questions to everyone." He cleared his throat as he faced them with a serious look.
"Now, what seems to be the reason why you all want to be the Deathsinger's witnesses?"
Mandalay answered. "I believe you are aware of the Forest Training incident…"
He nodded. "Yes. I am aware of that and it has been two months now. What about it?"
"That includes the students and the faculty of U.A who were present at the woods to have their training. When members of the said villain organization attacked us in a surprise, causing havoc and the first thing we did was to check Kota, but he was not at the training hub. We panicked but tried to remain calm as we decided to scatter and took important initiatives. I assigned Ragdoll and Pixie-bob to check on the students' statuses while Tiger and I checked Kota at the woods. While searching, later I realized that our nephew mentioned that he had a secret hideout and found out that Kota was at the mountain cave. When we scanned at the said location, we'd finally found him, but….." She paused a little…
"he….he wasn't alone…"
Detective Naomasa had started taking down notes while Mandalay was making her statement. He stopped jotting down and glanced up to him. "Did you see someone other than your little nephew?"
Tiger helped Mandalay on answering the question. "We saw that man…the man who killed Kota's parents… It was Muscular. Kota was nowhere to hide as he was just stuttered and all froze, looking at the big man."
Naomasa's eyes widened as he made a serious look at them. "What did he do next?"
"We tried to stop him by making a full force assault at the man, but we were outmatched as we couldn't feel our bodies after receiving heavy injuries from him. His quirk was too powerful to handle as Tiger's ferocious attacks didn't affect him at all. We lied, covered in bruises, cuts, blood, and shouted to our nephew to run away as quickly as possible and yell for help, but he later surrounded by Muscular…we felt useless as we couldn't able to save him….we couldn't able to keep his parents promise to look after him. We'd really thought this is our end until….."
"What happened next, Mandalay?" He glanced up to her.
"Before we passed out, w-we saw him. We saw the Deathsinger…"
Flashback
Izuku(Deathsinger), Kota, and Muscular POV
All scared, knees trembling, tears pouring down on his face, and almost pissing his black shorts. The hopeless young Kota didn't know what to do even he was told by his relatives to run away and scream for help. His body felt really heavy as he couldn't able to move, not a single muscle except his terrifying wide eyes, looking at the big monstrous size man which might kill him in an instant.
The villain let out an evil smirk and laugh at the defenseless boy and yelled.
"Brats like you sure know how to pass the blame. It's no good. I don't really hold a grudge against 'em about my eye. I killed 'em, just like I wanted to. And they tried to stop me. We all did our best and had to deal with the results. What's bad is when you can't put your money where your mouth is...like your dear mommy and daddy!"
Those painful words coming from the man made the young boy cried more and later on he suddenly bowed down his shaking knees on the ground and whispered to himself, praying that if someone…someone out there at the woods could save him from that monster.
"You do not even deserve to live, boy! You're too weak and scared to fight alone!" He prepared his quirk to make his super move and rushed towards the boy with force.
"I'm about to put you to sleep, child! When you reached the afterlife…..say my regards to your parents!"
Kota shut his eyes, covering his head, and screamed for help. "AAAHHHH!"
Mandalay and Tiger faintly shouted. "K-Kota-! Ruunn!"
Muscular was in a few meters to give his blow to the kid, but then two flashbangs appeared in front of him as he stopped before the bombs started to explode, blinding his senses temporarily.
Kota was later grabbed by someone from the ground as it's like carrying him bridal style. With all the exhaustion from crying and screaming, he hardly see the facial appearance of someone who saved him from the attack. He was placed on the edge of the tree.
"Stay right here. I'll handle this monster who tried to kill you. No one's going to hurt you from now on~"
He mumbled. "W-Who are…you?"
The young man ignored his question as the boy could hear the muttering of the young man before passing out.
Back on the battlefield, Muscular placed his hands on his right eye, shouting and complaining for the temporary blindness.
"WHO THE FUCK INTERRUPTED ME?! SHOW YOURSELF, YOU COWARD! YOU INTERLOPER!"
The Deathsinger A.K.A Izuku appeared in front of him, but in a few meters away wearing his villain/vigilante formal outfit. A long black coat, white polo shirt with a black necktie and black vest. Black trousers, leather boots, black military gloves, and dual Glock pistols. He observed at Muscular with a serious look and started speaking.
"How does it feel when you got bombarded by the bombs I made? It's only a prototype and homemade perfectly created just for you~. And now that I witnessed the effects of the flashbang, I'd totally take some important points for your weakness and saved it in my villain analysis~"
The voice. It sounded very familiar to him as he finally regained his ability to see, he blinked twice and saw his former colleague and villain from the organization he is currently working with. "Finally, we've crossed paths again, former captain Deathsinger….or should I say…" He paused before making a smirk. "Izuku Midoriya~!"
Izuku made a disapproving look on his face and tilted his head. "Either you want me to call by my alias name or the real one, at the end of the day we're all ending up in jail….or would you want me to finish you off instead?" He aimed his pistols at him.
"You really think that I forgot on what you did to the boy's parents when I was the captain of the Vanguard Action Squad?"
"Hehehe~ I disobeyed your task, yes but this is what I am and who we are! We're villains and we do what the fuck we want to do! I didn't give a fuck with your orders as you were not the boss of me, little shit!" He laughed. "And now you just appeared from nowhere and wanting to save that brat's life like a hero?! Tell me, have you finally changed your mind?!"
The triggered Izuku gritted his teeth. "If you plan on listing my crimes, mind you don't die of my multiple bullets in your body?! How about that?!"
"Bullshit! Your puny little bullets won't hurt me at all! HAHAHAHA!"
The green haired let out a smirk, wanting to provoke the big man. "You've been underestimating me since the time we first met. If you want an enemy, then I give you the enemy right in front of you!". He let out a mutter and gibberish words, some kind of a curse making Muscular confused at what he was currently doing.
He felt something hot and burning sensation on his chest and a soft whisper in his ears from an unknown voice as he finally realized that Izuku placed a hunter's mark.
"The mask of the Deathsinger seeks you!"
"My mark looms over you, big boy~" He chuckled.
"I don't have time for your enchanting bullshit, you fucking brat! I know everything from you and you cannot defeat me!" His muscle fibers started to rise and began covering all over his bodies, the quirk he is using increasing his durability and movement speed to enhance his attacks. He rushed towards Izuku without hesitation.
He shook his head and grinned. "You really don't know what I'm capable of~!" He also made his move to attack Muscular by tumbling back and shot multiple bullets directly at the cursed mark of the villain, piercing it directly, entering inside his body and later on exited at the back, some organs and spine of the villain were damaged making him cough out blood and stopped once again.
"I told you once when we were colleagues that you have to think twice before attacking a foe. You should've listened to me, Muscular. Brains beat brawns. You never learned and never will~"
"I covered everything in my body with muscle fibers…and the bullets just…pierced them all like it's nothing?! H-How? HOOOOWWWW?!"
"The Deathsinger's mark enhances my marksman abilities and the bullets I give increase damage and armor penetration, piercing the thickest armor you created. Also, your abilities weakened slowly with that mark and it's useless to fight me anymore—" He got interrupted when Muscular continued to attack him, giving his best punches and kicks, resulting him to back away and tried to avoid the attacks by blocking and dodging.
"Y-YOU….F-FUCKING…BRAAAAT!"
"T-Tch…d-dammit…!"
Upon giving his all-out offensive towards Izuku, he managed to give him a big blow punch on the chest and on the face, knocking the green-haired on the large thick boulder.
"G-GAAHH—"
Away from fighting, Mandalay coughed out blood while looking at the fight scene, but focused on watching the vigilante or maybe the other villain.
"So that's the Deathsinger I've been hearing about on the news? He used to work with League of Villains before? Maybe he knows the death of the Water Hose?"
As the hunter's mark faded away for a short duration, the panting Muscular observed at the fallen Deathsinger lying on the boulder which later he laughed insanely walked slowly to him.
"You're all talk and now I've beaten you into a fucking pulp! I've thought before that you were strong and invulnerable like any other member of the league I know…Heh…Hehehe…I've finally seen your error, Izuku…You're weak! Y-You did not deserve the ascension All For One gave a revival quirk to you on the grave… YOU ARE NOT EVEN WORTHY OF THE WORMS! HAHAHAHA!"
Izuku shakily wiped his bloodied lips using his wrist and spat some blood on the ground, trying to stand up and muttered at the approaching villain…
"Y-You…You overstep…!"
The big man raised an eyebrow with a grin as he again prepared his quirk to attack. "What did you say? Brat, I can't hear you over the sound of the powerful quirk I have!"
He let out a chuckle and glared at him. "You overstep… For I shall not kiss the ground…nor let myself wielded again as a tool of destruction…!"
A flock of black ravens suddenly appeared at the woods and a thick dark red aura surrounded the green haired. The man had no idea that he has another quirk to unleash, despite the red eerie background popped out from nowhere he didn't care less.
"….but with this power I….I WILL REMAKE THIS WORLD IN MY OWN IMAGE!"
Muscular's expression turned into amused one as he laughed and prepared again his quirk to give his all to him. "Yes….YES! HAHAHAHA Finally, a worthy opponent! Come at me and unleash your power! SEE TRUE DEATH!"
Izuku later levitated himself as the Ravens and thick aura helped him do his demonic transformation quirk. Scarlet red veins spread his arms, neck, and face. Emerald eyes turned fiery red as black feathered wings appeared and spread on his back. He muttered words while looking down.
"Demonic Ascension at 25% power. World Ender at 50% power. Do not fail me this time…"
He let out a smirk as he quickly dashed at the villain. With that enormous speed and strength from the Deathsinger, he didn't see that coming, the violent knockout blow he received on his face. He tried to defend himself with his muscle fibers, but then again it wasn't enough to cover him as the fibers were shredding drastically.
"A-AAAAARRGHH-!"
"Muscular! In your madness, you know my suffering! Though I shall end yours!"
"Yes, Izuku yes Heh..Hehe!" His body started to grow weak and felt exhausted from the receiving attacks. "I am the cause of your suffering and that little brat! See if you can cut justice from me! KILLING ME WON'T EVEN BRING THE BOY'S PARENTS BACK AS MY BLOOD AND THEIRS IS IN YOUR HANDS NOW!"
The two parties gave their all and made a final violent clash at the mountains.
(Author's Note: The continuation of the fight and the story will be posted on the next chapter.)

Hisashi Midoriya's POV
Time: 5:45 PM
Location: Musutafu Medical Center
He was fetched by his wife at the airport and while traveling going to the hospital, Inko told her husband everything when she and her son met for the first time and it's been 3-4 years since her son's revival from the dead. The secrets of her little son's past about the hidden quirk and true background of the father's past, making Hisashi's expression looked not surprised as he expected it from the start after all their son wanted the truth and nothing more.
An hour later and it's a quarter before 7 PM, Inko told him the floor and room number of their son before she left him to buy some food at the nearest convenience store and so the black-haired man took deep breaths, shaking his hands twice, and a little muttering.
"W-What if my son would get mad as hell for leaving him dead for years? Of course, I'd expect this for sure, but I just can't imagine his face once I open the room door?" He talked to himself and sighed afterward before entering inside the elevator. He pressed the 10th-floor button all alone, nervous, and felt chills of the cold ventilation of the hospital.
As Hisashi reached the 10th floor to visit his son which he hasn't had so much father-son bonding moments with him since he flew to Europe and started working as an expat, he suddenly encountered a familiar looking ash blonde wearing a formal school uniform holding a paper bag filled with food and a flower on his other hand.
He raised an eyebrow and muttered himself. "So that's the brat I saw on the tv, huh?"
He tilted his head and let out a loud whistle directly at the teen in which Katsuki almost jumped, stopped for a moment before taking a glance at someone who whistled at him.
Upon finding out the person who did the loud whistle and a gesture, he looked at the man and blinked twice.
"U-Uhh...can I help you, sir? Is there a problem?" He asked in a calm manner.
Hisashi made an intimidating look and a creepy smile before walking towards him.
"I know what you did...you'd really thought I didn't know anything, huh?" He placed his hand on other's shoulder with a tight grip, making Katsuki's eyes widened and froze while looking at the man.
"And you even confessed your love to my son? After what he went through? Hmm?"
The teen's eyes widened a bit and later realized that he was facing at Izuku's dad.
"U-Uncle Hisashi…? O-Oh...my God..."
Author's Note: The chapter especially the interrogation one is too long and I decided to cut it and post the others on the next chapter instead which I'll post next week (probably Sunday or Monday? I dunno). Let me know your thoughts by leaving a review. Hisashi might McAssWhoppin Kacchan in the next chapter or something…I dunno about you guys what do you think? HAHAHAHAHA
Anyways, thanks again and I'll see you next time! Byeeee
