13 year old Izumi was sitting at the kitchen table watching her mom eat. Her mom smiled at her before taking a bite. Inko knew Izumi didn't need to eat but wanted to spend time with her and asked her a while to join her for family time, basically they talked while Inko ate. Since the incident Inko had trouble using her left arm which had taken the most damage, Izumi had healed the surface damage but not so much the nerve damage, Inko had gotten some help with it and as Izumi had found it, she couldn't heal a wound she already healed unless it was a new one, as a result Inko had come to rely on her quirk more.
"So how was school today?" asked Inko.
"It's fine, most people don't even acknowledge me anymore which is nice since they aren't screaming at me about being a monster, we played dodgeball and unfortunately I still can't stop myself from smoking out" said Izumi.
"To be fair I don't want to be hit with a rubber ball either" joked Inko.
Izumi chuckled as her mother took a bite.
"Um any news about da..Hisashi?" asked Izumi.
"He somehow made it to Greenland, he got on someone's bad side and they turned him into a hero called Wintherbear, head of a bear, his quirk is called Time Crawl, it causes personal time to slow with a touch" explained Inko.
"They move in slow motion?" asked Izumi thinking it was funny.
"Yup" said Inko.
Izumi pulled out her notebook and started writing.
"What kind of bear?" asked Izumi.
"Um Polar bear I think" said Inko.
"I can google it later, I've been wondering about Iceland and Greenland, they don't really talk about their hero's very often" said Izumi.
Izumi had no friends at school and most of the students preferred to avoid her, she spent a lot of time people watching and over time noticed she could identify a quirk before the user was in the room, it took time to identify a newer quirk but the more common quirks were quicker to figure out although sometimes who came into the room was not the person she thought it was, this of course led her to wonder if quirks had taste. The answer was sorta and when Bakugo found out she attempted this proudly proclaimed he would be the greatest hero ever, superior to even All Might, and that in the ultimate battle of good versus evil, he would slay the quirk eating monster and avenge all the weaker hero's she killed. Izumi didn't want to be a villein, she wanted to be a normal person with a normal quirk and set her sights low for her future because that meant a normal life.
"Good night mom" said Izumi entering her room.
"Good night sweetie" said Inko.
Izumi waited until she could hear her mom sleeping then turned to smoke and slipped out of the house. Gone were the days of naps, sleep a bygone memory, Izumi had tried to pass the time doing things inside but over time the urge to explore her powers and the nighttime world only increased. Izumi landed on a roof and pulled out her phone and headed to YouTube to watch videos on the man believed to be her father the hero Smokewall. She had received a notification about from one of the American Hero channels she watched that was titled Smokewall Quirk Name and Final Move. She was always eager to learn more about him.
"So your quirk, it's fire based right, that's how you get the smoke?" asked the host.
Smokewall laughed. (Izumi hated the sound and hoped she didn't sound like that)
"No my quirk is Typhokinesis, the ability to control smoke, I can produce it but I'm not a quirk specialist so I don't actually know how it happens" explained Smokewall.
"Ah makes sense, so do either of your parents have control over smoke?" asked the host.
"No, my father has Quirk freeze and I get the energy absorption ability from his side of the family, my father is a cop and when he whistles the targets can't use their quirks, and he eats onions and garlic in everything claiming it helps him, his breath is a deadly weapon, now my mother has Heliophobia, in per quirk times that was the fear of the sun and or bright lights, for my mom though it means during the day she's just as strong as other people with no strength enhancing ability's, at night she's as strong as a gorilla and as fast as a cheetah, she's also a police officer that's night, it's how she met my dad actually" said Smokewall.
"So being a hero was the only natural path from there I take" said the host.
"Um no, I wanted to be a baker, but as I grew older my taste buds started dying as my body began to sustain itself on energy, so my stomach and taste buds started to weaken as they were no longer needed, I used to be good cook but now that I can't my food is either to salty, to sweet or to bland, it was my uncle who convinced me to sign up to be a hero, my grandfathers quirk on my mothers side is Insomnia so he doesn't sleep at all and I haven't entered REM sleep in nearly two years" explained Smokewall.
"Darn and here I was going to ask you to make my daughter a birthday cake" joked the host.
"Probably for the best if I don't, She'll started crying, you'll start crying and it will be so awaked that I burn the food and cause the smoke to fly me away at the slightest breeze" teased Smokewall.
Someone could be heard yelling from the crowd.
"I'm sorry, what was that?" asked Smokewall.
28 second commercial.
"They asked about the villein Carson, lethal force was authorized and you kissed him...to death" said the host a little concerned.
Snokewall let out a sigh.
"I accidently discovered that move during the Overcharge storm, I am responsible for the death of fellow hero Steel Nail, we had been dating secretly for the last year and a half, I kissed her for the first time since the malfunction and every single nerve in my body felt like it was on fire, I couldn't release her no matter how hard I tired and I felt her quirk grow weak then die as it was ripped out, I did the same to Carson and I carry them both with me" explained Smokewall.
"I believe her family tried to have you arrested for murder" asked the host.
"They tried and I was willing to go but the Judge threw out the case on the grounds that her quirk could have killed me to during that event and I just got lucky, as did a few other hero's who had been effected" explained Smokewall voice full of regret.
The host got a prompt to make a joke gladly did so.
"Well hopefully that is the best kiss in the world and all the ladies die happy" said the host.
"Oh, I know how to control it so there's no fear of my kiss of death...unless you want it" said Smokewall with a wink and a smirk.
Izumi ended the video ready to vomit if she could, instead she settled for being grossed out and worried about her possible first kiss if it ever happened. Izumi decided to find a video on Wintherbear when she heard a scream. She turned to smoke and flew to where she heard it. A man held a knife to women as he backed away from the man at the far end of the corner. The guy with the knife was panicked and making demanded and the man at the other end was trying to talk him down. The guy with a knife stabbed his hostage and threw them away then ran towards the wall and started climbing it. Izumi turned to smoke and flew over to the women as she got closer she saw that man on the far end had a scarf and really shaggy hair. He was watching the guy flee as he tried to help the women. He was surprised when Izumi appeared next to him.
"I can heal her" said Izumi.
"Good, then I can catch him" said the man.
Izumi closed her eyes and focused on the quirks around her, many of them were apartments and it being late night early morning meant there were a lot of people to pull from but to heal a wound like this she didn't need that much energy. The blood stopped flowing and the wound sealed shut without leaving a scar, the nerves realigning and regrowing as Izumi kept her mind clear and focused on that task. When the women started groaning Izumi knew her job was done. She heard footsteps and looked behind her to see the scarf guy return with the other guy wrapped up in said scarf, Izumi mentally smacked herself for not recognizing him earlier.
"Your Eraserhead!" squealed Izumi.
"I'm not surprised you know me, given that you seem to enjoy stalking me, your not as stealthy as you think" said Aizawa.
"Well your a pro and I'm bored teenager" said Izumi.
"Teenager?, how old?" asked Aizawa.
"13" said Izumi.
"Why aren't you in bed, sleep is good" said Aizawa.
"My quirk prevents that" said Izumi.
Footsteps could be heard coming from the entrance and both Izumi and Aizawa looked up to see Midnight.
"I caught the guy, he took a hostage and stabbed her, this teenager who can't sleep healed her" said Aizawa.
Midnight smirked.
"Well it's nice to finally meet your little stalker, do you have a name or do you prefer to be called Nightmare Angel?" asked Midnight.
"Huh I never would have guessed the vigilante Nightmare Angel and my stalker were the same person" said Aizawa with mock interest.
"I never used my powers to stop a crime, I used them to heal wounded induvial, I'm a concerned citizen not a vigilante, also I really hate that name" said Izumi.
"In the eyes of the law it's the same thing, however no one is going to tell you not to heal, I like what your doing, let me give you my number in case you ever find yourself in a situation, give me a call" said Midnight holding out her hand.
Izumi placed her phone in Midnights hand and watched as she entered her number.
"Go do something less dangerous" said Aizawa.
