Izumi sat on roof of a building she had randomly flown to and stared off into the darkness. She was so tired of people and had tried to go as far as she could before the increased distance caused a buzzing sensation in the back of her mind, her own quirk reminding her that they were her food source and that she was a monster. Today had been terrible on so many fronts. School had only grown worse, home was a reminder of her failure and the mall even though not Saturday offered no respite.
"No one likes you, go be a villain already so I can kill you and be famous" Kaachan.
"I'm go to see a doctor this weekend so you'll be home alone..., um make sure you turn out the lights and lock the doors" said Inko.
"Bakugo the monster is recording quirks again!" screamed a student.
"They are a nerve specialist, you were only a child when you healed me, you didn't know the right way to do it" explained Inko.
"I'll fucking kill you freak, someone get me a stake" laughed Kaachan
"No parties or.., oh right no friends" sighed Inko.
Izumi couldn't get these thoughts out of her head. Her mother despised her and Kaachan, well sometimes she wondered why she still even used that childhood nickname when they weren't even friends anymore. Izumi was broken out of her thoughts by a scream. She looked around then attempted to use her quirk before finding 2 nearby. Izumi turned to smoke and followed the buzzing until she came across the people. She turned human in the shadows and watched as a man ran from the spot he had been in, a women laid on the ground, clothes torn and a jagged sharp instrument sticking out of them.
"Don't worry I'm here" said Izumi.
Izumi grabbed the women's hand and tried to pull in quirk energy to heal her but there was only 1 quirk in her area of influence, and it belonged to the man who did this and he was moving fast, Izumi felt fear and sadness as she realized she would not save this women. Izumi felt a hand touch her face and looked down to see the women looking at her before the light went out in her eyes. Izumi also learned that night what a dying quirk felt like. Izumi screamed in rage and frustration and pillars of smoke erupted from the ground raining dirt in different directions.
Izumi cleared her mind as she tried to figure out what she should do when she realized the buzzing had shifted into more of a heartbeat. She focused on it and felt only 1 quirk instead of many and realized she was now tracking the monster that did this. Izumi stood and began to walk toward it when she remembered there was one thing she should do. She pulled out her phone and called the police.
"Hello Musutafu Police, how can I help?" asked the officer.
"I'm at Aozora Park, I found a women with multiple stab wounds, I tried to use my quirk to help her but she died before I could" said Izumi.
"Oh!, May I have a name please and did you see her assailant?" asked the officer.
Izumi wanted to hurt the man that did this but at that question she realized she didn't know how to fight or what kind of quirk the guy had and that meant she was in over her head.
"He was Japanese, 5 feet tall, bald, he was wearing a grey shirt and black pants, that's all I remember" said Izumi.
"Can you wait there with the body and can I have your name" asked the officer.
Izumi realized if she waited here for the police and anyone at school found out, they would accuse her of murder and Bakugo would only be worse.
"Nightmare Angel" said Izumi as she hung up.
Izumi then turned to smoke and flew to a nearby building where she could see and not be seen. She also called Midnight and told her where she was. Izumi tried not to panic when she heard the rooftop door open and then close as it had only been a minute. Izumi turned around to see a child staring at her, the child then walked up to the ledge and looked down at the spot
"Don't worry after our cousin gets what she wants from him, she'll rip him limb from limb" said the child with an echoey voice.
Izumi was very confused and very worried. She also smelled rotten meat and that scared her. She wondered if it was their quirk but realized she couldn't sense.
"Where's your quirk?" asked Izumi.
"In my real body, or did you mean this kids quirk, because I thought he was freshly dead but his skin is all..gooy" said the voice coming from the child.
"You can possess dead people?" asked Izumi.
"Yup or the living but I prefer the dead they don't fight back, I also have a few other things that aren't really helpful in a fight" said the voice.
"How did the kid die?" asked Izumi.
"He was thrown out of his home for being quirkless" said the voice.
Izumi felt disgust and bile rise in her throat and she had definitely heard the remorse in it's voice.
"Um you mentioned a cousin, what does she want with that creep?" asked Izumi.
"A baby...although since technically we are the physical form of the quirk, I guess that means she's ready for a new vessel for her evolution and his quirk is suitable for that" said the voice.
"What is his quirk?" asked Izumi.
"Hairy Frog" said the voice.
Izumi snorted trying not to laugh.
"He was neither hairy or a frog" giggled Izumi.
"That's just one of the names of a frog species that had the ability to create claws with its bones, they pierced the flesh of the frog but gave it a defense, that's how he killed that women down there" said voice.
"Why on earth would your cousin want that quirk for her child, um future body" said Izumi.
"She figured she should have a surprise attack if other ability's fail" said the voice.
"I guess that works, but there are other useful quirks she could go after" said Izumi.
"Oh?, like what?" asked the voice.
"Um Wintherbear, he can slow personal time, he has the head of a bear, there's a criminal called Slippy, his quirk is creating oil slicks and can spray sand, there's a detective who can tell when you're lying" explained Izumi.
"You know a lot of interesting quirks, how about me?" asked the voice.
"I have several journals, I got all the time, there's a women that works at the mall at the coffee stand, her quirk is vanilla perfume, if your able to use your other ability's while outside your body then covering up the smell of rotting meat would be very help, of course you could also look for a thermokinesis or cryokinesis quirk to lower the body temperature" explained Izumi.
"I'll keep those in mind thank you, by the way do you know where I can find Willam Shay?" asked the voice.
"Who?" asked Izumi.
The child gave her a look then sighed.
"William Shay is the name of the hero Smokewall" said the child annoyed.
"No, I thought he was in America" said Izumi.
"So did we, but it seems he ditched us and went into hiding, the coward agreed to help us then bailed" sighed the voice.
"So you came looking for the daughter he didn't know about?" asked Izumi.
"Oh he knew about you, if he had slept with a quirk that didn't progress his quirk evolution then you wouldn't have the family trait of energy absorption, but when we sleep with someone who has compatible quirk, we feel the split, as the quirk leaves behind the old copy and combines with the new quirk in the womb, trust me I've already been through the whole process, I'm both my grandson, my grandfather and my mother all in one and when I do again I'll be my great grandchild" the voice.
"That sounds like sentient quirks and were you aware when you were in the womb?" asked Izumi.
"It was dark, and I'm sorry but this is going to hurt" said the voice.
"What's going to hurt?" asked Izumi.
Someone grabbed Izumi's shoulder and spun her around. She looked into the light blue eyes of an old man. She felt searing as pain as the child behind her touched her back. The old man grabbed her head and began to speak.
"You will forget this conversation, you will remember Hisashi Midoriya is your biological father, you never heard the name Smokewall or William Shay"
Izumi tried not to panic when the rooftop door opened but she had been lost in thought and was startled when she heard Midnight speak.
"I'm sorry I got here as soon as I could, they identified the weapon which was a bone knife used and Aizawa is on his way to arrest him" said Midnight.
"You got here really fast" said Izumi.
Midnight looked at her confused.
"Sweetie, it took me 25 minutes to get here, are you ok?" asked Midnight.
Izumi was confused, she had just called which meant Midnight was nearby to get here so fast. Izumi looked at her phone and 25 minutes had indeed passed but that made no sense. She turned around and saw the police and ambulance packing up to go.
"When did they get there?" asked Izumi.
Midnight was very concerned. She grabbed Izumi and brought her close and touched her head checking to see if she had a fever. Midnight didn't know how much the girl had seen but decided that the best course of action was to bring her to Recovery Girl and a hug. Izumi was surprised when Midnight started checking for a fever and even more surprised when for the first time in 9 years someone hugged her.
"My quirk is going to hurt you" cried Izumi.
"I can take it" said Midnight.
Izumi cried into Midnight's shoulder as the older women kept hugging her but something kept tickling her nose.
"Do you smell that?" asked Midnight.
Izumi sniffed the air.
"Rotton meat? asked Izumi.
The pro and the teenager began to look for the source of the smell when they found a pile of melting meat. It had no features, and it was unclear what it had been. Midnight really began to worry now, Izumi had been up here a while and this was the first time she noticed.
"I'm taking you to U.A, you might be suffering from PTSD or something" said Midnight.
"OK" said Izumi having no other answer to the missing time or this slurry.
From the shadows two people watched the women leave. They waited till the door was completely closed before heading over themselves. The old man opened the door and instead of a stairway was a filthy one bedroom apartment. There was a women sitting on the couch clearly getting impatient as her intended target was not there yet.
"Yo we got another quirk that might be better, let's see if there if there's attraction" said a young man.
The women looked over them.
"What happened to the smelly child?" asked the women.
"Rapid decay, William had a daughter, that daughter rejected my possession like we thought she would" explained the young man.
"Where are we going?" asked the women.
"Greenland" said the old man.
