-Midoriya-
He was born quirkless, His mother could only cry and say she was sorry. His "friend" labeled him Deku; meaning useless. His father abandoned him. He was lost he was drowning.
Figurately and in reality, as one of Bakugo's cronies was holding him under water. He was going to die. He was 10 years old and he was about to fucking die.
Then she came; out of nowhere like an angel. Knocking the boy aside and pulling him from the water. It was then he briefly lost consensus as the water filled his lungs.
-Suijin-
Holy shit they are killing him, that kid is going to die.
She barreled into some fat kid with small wings knocking him into the water and franticly pulled the boy out. She could hear shouting behind her but she didn't care activating her quirk two large water golems rose up and chased the voices away. She could feel the water in his lungs as she pulled him up on to land. She released her control of the golems and turned to the boy slowly extending her quirk she pulled the water from his lungs in the form a snake and sent it back to the river. She couldn't tell if he was breathing.
Aww fuck
She tilted his head and gave him the breath of life. It was her first kiss, well not technically a kiss it was as close she had gotten in her twelve years of life.
Don't you dare fucking die on me, I don't want my first kiss to be like this you dumb boy
-Midoriya-
Why was he feeling warm breath in his mouth? Why was there a tase of cherry on his lips? Why were his lips warm? What is this feeling?
His eyes snapped open. There was a girl over him with deep bluish black hair and she k-k-kissing him.
What the hell is happening? Why is she kissing me? No wait is this CPR, does she think I'm dead. Her lips taste great. Wait no, no bad Izuku.
-Suijin-
She pulled her head away and was preparing to take a breath when she noticed his eyes were open. Brilliant green emerald looking at her in almost fright.
Did this asshole just fake me out to steal a kiss. I am so going to murder him then save him again just so I can murder him once more.
"Did you just fake this to steal a kiss you son of a bitch?"
-Midoriya-
"No, I NO I swear, please don't murder me. Your lips tasted nice … oh no please oh shit I'm dead I'm so dead." He began to scramble away before getting into a kneeling position and pressing his head into the dirt and began to beg forgiveness.
Death didn't come well at least at the moment. He lifted his head and dared to open one eye at his savior/executioner. Expecting death but truth to be told praying for taste of cherry ChapStick to be honest. She had dark almost black blue hair, brilliant blue eyes, wearing a Water Heroes shirt, jeans and sneakers. She tilted her head back and just started laughing.
"Oh, thank god your alive"
"Do I get to continue to live?"
"Maybe, maybe… Suijin Yamada" she said pointing at herself.
"Izuku?... I mean Midoriya, Izuku Midoriya."
"Look man you just stole my first kiss you can call me Suijin and I'll call you Izuku"
"I-I-it was my first kiss t-t—too"
"Wow aren't you so damn smooth"
"What no, no I swear I wasn't trying to take advantage of you."
He tried to stand but as the adrenaline was fleeing his body he sank to the floor.
"Hold up man you did almost drown, I had to pull water out of lungs"
"Thank you" he managed weakly. His world getting colder and heavier. "I think I need to get home" He tried to stand again only to collapse.
"You almost drowned stupid, let me help you" she got up and slipped his arm over her shoulder. He saw her pause and open her palm on her other hand towards them and he felt the water leaving his clothing and hers as well forming into a water snake before splashing into the river.
"That's so cool" he managed. "What is your quirk?"
"Oh, I can control water, I just need water around. I can also animate it to attack for me"
"That is so cool" life coming up into his voice. His eyes shined at her and the largest smile crossed his face.
-Suijin-
*THUMP*
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? WHY DID MY HEART JUMP LIKE THAT.
"Thanks, now where do you live Izuku?"
He gave her his address, as they made the journey to his home, he was asking all kinds of questions about her quirk. He was so alive and smiling as they made their way out of the park and down the road. People giving them curious looks as they walked. He asked about her parents quirks she paused for second before responding.
"Oh, my dad can control earth kind of like how I do water and my mom can make herself invisible"
She was lying. She knew she was. Her Dad controlled water just like her and her mom could create it, well actually she could create almost any basic element. They were the villains Water Dragon and Elementa. She knew they were. They weren't big time well not anymore. They used to be bigger but then she came along. But that was the truth. They were… somewhere doing something. They would be home at some point. They may have to move again. But she really hoped that would not be the case at least not this time. She felt kind of bad lying to Izuku but what could she do. Having Villains for parents was kind of difficult.
They continued their walk towards Izuku's apartment. The boy holding onto her side was still asking some questions and she could hear him muttering to himself and he was struggling to remain conscious. They finally reached the stairs and after much struggle made it to his door. They struggled to get his key out of his bag and in the door. They made it inside and he barely mange to make it to the couch before he simply collapsed exhausted from his ordeal. She could hear him muttering something about the taste of cherries. Which caused her to blush. She turned back to the boy covering him with a blanket and lightly kissed his cheek.
"Sleep tight good looking." She went into his bag finding a notebook called hero analysis, quickly finding a blank page she jotted down a note for him and her phone number. She tore the page and folding it and placing it on the coffee table. She walked out of the apartment locking the door with his key before sliding it under the door.
I know it can't last but maybe for a little while I can be a girl and he can be a boy. It would be nice to have a friend for a little bit.
She made her way downstairs onto the street beginning her trek home. She would have to make sure to buy more cherry ChapStick on her way home she was almost out.
*THUMP* I am in so much trouble.
-Time from Izuku's perspective-
At the age of ten I meet my first real friend, Suijin.
At the age of 11 she mentioned how guys who play guitar were cute. So, like any boy would do, I leaned to play the guitar.
At 12 I had my second first kiss. Cherry ChapStick. I started to working out so I could try to defend her from Bakugo. I joined Dojo where I meet my second friend Itsuka Kendo. I even managed to get a girlfriend; I don't know why Suijin said yes but I don't really care. Also, my stutter seems to be gone. I still mutter sometimes. The girls think it's cute. I still blush.
At 13 we all went to beach I had my first real fight against someone other than Bakugo. And I won. And I received my hero reward from Suijin the best kiss ever, and a lot more that night. I was pretty sure that I was already in love with her now I know for sure. Bakugo still comes after me. I lose almost every time but I make sure he knows he was in a fight. Suijin tells me she doesn't like super buff guys. I tailor my workout.
At 14 Itsuka has to move away to train with her grandfather. We all cry. Suijin buys me a new guitar for my birthday. I buy her a necklace with a dolphin with a small aquamarine for the eyes. She loves Dolphins. I get into a really bad fight with Bakugo that scar on my back will defiantly never go away.
At 15 Dad dies in an accident, Mom gets a large payout. We buy a house. Suijin comes crying to me. She has to move away; they are leaving Sunday. We cry and cry. Thursday night mom says she has to go take care of something for the weekend she will be home Sunday. Friday night we have sex, it is amazing. All day Saturday all night, into Sunday morning. We are trying to cram a lifetime of experience into a day and a half. If we just love each other enough then maybe Sunday won't come. Or we will be able to hold out till we get to college. I tell her I want to go where ever she is going. She tells me to get into UA follow my dreams, be a hero. She's, my hero. Her parents arrive in a small moving truck to take her away. We kiss. We kiss like we are trying to absorb all we can about each other into each other. Maybe we will make it work. I promise to call she promises to text. We promise to always love each other. I tell her I'm going to marry her. She says she will wait for me. She exits the door. I hold on till she gets into the car, I can hear her screaming she loves me. I'm doing the same. She drives away. I make it inside before the tears full take control. I make it to the couch. I don't know when I feel asleep.
I am woken up by a pounding on my door, it's the police. My mother was in an accident I need to get to the hospital right away. I rush I see Bakugo and his dad here. Why are they here? I see Mitsuki in a hospital bed, holding her head, her arm looks broken. I rush in to see my mom. Oh god there are so many tubes and hoses. A nurse is holding her hand. The doctor tells me there is not much time. I blank for a moment before I rush to her side. She rustles my hair and grabs my hand. I can barely hear her.
"Be good, follow your dreams, I will always be with you." I tell her to stay. I beg her to stay. She tells me she's sorry; sorry she didn't tell me sooner; I can be a hero. She will watch me be a hero. Be the best hero I can be just smile for her one more time. I do it, I reach deep and smile. Machines start to beep like crazy, I'm ushered out of the room. 20 minutes later she is gone. I'm alone. Tears, I call Suijin. She cries with me; she tells me she will try to come back for a few days. for the next few days all I feel are tears.
Mitsuki and my mom were out for a girl's weekend. They had too much to drink. Mitsuki was driving. Mom had fallen asleep. Mitsuki fell asleep. Off the road they went. Mom was thrown clear.
I'm at school talking to the principal and the guidance counselor. We agree taking some time off is probably for the best. I'm already ahead in all my classes. I'm trying to leave when Bakugo confronts me in the hall. Starts complaining that his parents are going to have to pay me money for what happened to my mom, starts calling her a stupid bitch for not wearing her seat belt, starts in about Suijin not being around. Saying that it's my fault his life is going to be inconvenienced. He starts to say something about my mom again. I snap. I rush him take him down and start punching as hard as I can, like a rabid animal. He tries to blast me off but I keep coming. They try separate us he takes some cheap shots; tears are falling down my face. I look like a madman. Screaming I'm going to kill him. His nose Is broken, my shoulder is fractured from an explosion, looks like I did something to his orbital bone. I want his blood I want to hear him scream. That's when it happens, I begin to rip the blood out of his body with my quirk. It's almost like my mom's quirk. He screams and I pass out.
I wake up in the hospital. I am talking to a police officer. He is saying words like jail, assault with a quirk. I rip open my hospital gown and show all the burn scars. I yell back about what was done to me. A lawyer walks in. He is tall thin appears to be American. Tells me his name is Kobayashi. Promises I won't do jail time. Says he has worked out a deal with the Bakugo's. They won't pay me as much for the death of my mother and I won't have to pay the medical bills for Katsuki. Fine. Deal. I sign some paperwork. He hands me his card and tells me my mother hired and retained him. He will help me with all the necessary paperwork. He hands me a business card tells me to call when I get home. There is a funeral, Itsuka and Suijin are there. Suijin can only stay for the service. Her Dad is only here for some work and won't let her stay longer. A lot of her coworkers came. Mitsuki came she apologized and left quickly. Eventually Itsuka and Suijin have to leave. I'm all alone.
I talk to Kobayashi; I basically have a really large allowance. My mom made sure everything would be taken care of in case something happened. The house will be paid for the bills will be paid for. I have money for food, and a little extra left over for if I need something small. He tells me there is more set aside repairs on the house or appliances. If I need more, I just have to make a written request to him and his firm. 2 weeks later I receive a package. A sympathy note type written, 300,000 yen and bottle of Blanton's Single Barrel. I never drank before. That changed that night. Days blur into weeks, weeks blur into months Suijin calls every day and puts up with my drunken phone calls and texts. I woke up in my mom's bed holding her sweater crying and smelling of booze. I have to stop drinking. Mom is watching.
I tell Suijin, that I am going to stop drinking, she says she is proud. But can't talk long she has Dr. Visit. Just a cold she says. It's been 6 months. We talk every day we can, lots of texts especially with Itsuka whenever she comes down the mountain. Itsuka has no service at her grandparents, I guess it really is in the middle of nowhere.
I enroll online. Aldara doesn't really want me back and I don't want to go back. I study my quirk, and find the smaller something is the better my quirk affects it. That is why I can affect things one such a small level as blood. I go outside, I meet my neighbors again. I do my best to put my life together. The next few months are not that bad.
I turn 16, I save Bakugo from a sludge villain, I meet All-Might. I'm going to inherit his power. I'm going to be the next symbol peace. I tell Suijin. She tells me how happy she is. I ask her what she wanted to say she tells me she got a job babysitting. A little girl named Inari. She is really excited she tells me it pays well and that she is studying hard for her entrance exam. We talk; she tells me a lot about Inari, she seems so proud sends me all kinds of pictures. I tell her how excited I am that I can't wait till we have a kid together. She laughs and tells me that she is getting her practice in. I tell her that I can do 15% of my full cowling now. I can't thank her enough for giving me the hint I needed to figure it out.
I'm almost 17. I am getting a little nervous. I haven't heard from Suijin in 5 days. Itsuka hasn't heard from here either. I'm just finished my finals. I see Mr Kobayashi and a seemingly nice woman with what seems to be frog quark. They ask to enter I notice the woman is carrying a child in a car seat. I'm worried and very confused. I'm almost dead sure that this kid is Inari why is she here where are her parents. I may be wrong. I think I picked the wrong time to stop drinking. Kobayashi sits me down. I notice the women is walking around looking at the house. He gets my attention. He tells me that there was an incident. Suijin was killed in the crossfire between two villains and some heroes. I'm trying not to break. I need a drink. I still have some in my room in the closet second box right…. He snaps me back to reality. Izuku, he says this is your daughter Inari. The women is holding out the child to me. I see a dolphin necklace with a small aquamarine. I think at this point I fainted.
*Authors note*
First thank you for reading. I changed how the final section of the chapter is formatted. My intention was to really go into Izuku head with his muttering. More of a stream of thought.
