Izuku had changed in the last few weeks, even someone like me had noticed.
I thought that after Bakugo-san did that to him he would be sad for months, I had even talked about it with Inko and planned what to do to give him something of a surprise.
But the surprise was for them when Izuku came through the door wearing the most radiant smile I had ever seen.
He didn't want to tell us anything, but since that day he was going to another place after school, a place he didn't want to tell me about either...
"Muu..." Which led me to my situation, I'm a patient girl but still curiosity led me to spy on Izuku and find out what he was doing.
"H-Hello Natsumi" I quickly ducked into a bush when I heard Izuku's voice, I peeked my head out a bit and there I saw them.
"Eh?" I felt that I had seen that girl before, but right now I couldn't remember where.
Long green hair similar to Izuku's color and a school uniform I had never seen before "What is Izuku doing with that woman?"
Was it a date? I've read about this kind of thing before, but it's supposed to be done by couples?
Wait a minute!
Is it possible that the reason Izuku was so happy was because he had a date? The girl was tall for him but I guess he likes them like that...
"Izuku! Who are you supposed to...be with?" Where did they go?
"If you're looking for the young couple they just went in that direction" An older lady spoke to me and pointed to where they went.
"Thank you!"
I ran in the direction and it seemed to me that the nice lady said something about youth but I didn't understand her, I had already walked away.
I slowed my pace a bit and looked for another place to hide when I saw Izuku and ... Natsumi I think her name was
"That's..." Why are you taking her to our favorite bakery!? Only there they make the best Kinako bread in the whole world!
"And that's..." Cholate cake! He told ME that we were going to buy one like that for lunch this week...
"Kekeke, what are you doing there?" Eh? I heard someone behind me
There I see a little blue-haired girl with a cute red dress and ... that in her hand is a stuffed animal?
"Oh! Hello" Damn, I've been spotted, I have to distract her and go quickly to another hiding place "How...are you? You..." Think Tohka thinks, where can I hide without them noticing...
"Yoshinon and Yoshino are fine, but I wanted to ask why you are spying on Natsumi-chan and Midoriya-san" You know them? All the more reason to leave before they see me! I can't ruin the plan.
"Spying? Me?! I would never do something like that haha..."
"Hmmm? Yoshinon thinks you're a bit jealous" Jealous? I don't know what that is but whatever it is I'm sure I'm not "Yoshinon also thinks you're hiding very badly keke"
Ugh...
"That doesn't matter! I have to go now!" Where did they go now? They made me get distracted again!.
"Whew... where did they go?" This time there was no nice older lady to tell me which direction they went.
"He seems to have a little problem kekekeke" This stuffed animal was starting to tire me with his voice, how was it possible for a plush toy to talk!?
Although looking a little better it looks like a puppet or something like that I think those things were called, if I remember correctly Izuku told me that it could only talk if it had a person to speak for it.
"Hey, I'd like to know why you're talking through your toy."
"Kukuku, I think you're wrong miss, Yoshinon is Yoshinon" Because I have the feeling that I've already experienced something similar? I also knew this girl?
"You are a puppet, aren't you? I think I remember Izuku told me about what I was."
"Oh?... Midoriya-san confused Yoshinon again? Bad, very bad..."
"Um..." The girl spoke for a moment, it was more like a murmur but it was the first time I heard something from her "A...Yoshinon doesn't like to be mistaken for a...puppet" What a cute voice!
"Kukuku, Yoshino is right miss-chan, you should know that Yoshinon is Yoshinon, I'm not a toy or a puppet" Is that so?
"Oh! if that's the case then I apologize to you Yoshinon and... You are Yoshino aren't you?" I guess I misunderstood Izuku or he misunderstood... or maybe ...
This plush was magic! Izuku had said that magic doesn't exist, but what if it came to life because of a Quirk? That would explain a lot of things.
"My name is Tohka, nice to meet you!" I've never met anything magical!
"Nice to meet you Tohka-chan kukuku" Why did it look like the puppet was hiding something? "I think you'd like to follow us, you'll see where Midoriya-san went" Yes? Then let's go!
"Let's go let's go" Without thinking too much I just grabbed Yoshino's hand and started running towards... somewhere "Um... Where do we have to go?"
"Be more careful next time Tohka-chan!, we don't want me to fall now do we?" Yoshino laughed lightly as Yoshinon moved exaggeratedly.
"Ugh" Hopefully I didn't make him angry again "Can we go now? Please?"
"Kuh, Alright, Yoshino let's go to the beach!" The beach? Why on earth would Izuku go with that girl there?
Although I had once gone with Inko and Izuku to a nice beach I know that the beach nearby is full of garbage and no one really goes there. Izuku shouldn't have gone there unless it had already been cleaned.
And if that was the case why didn't he take me there before?...
"You look a little worried Tohka-chan kukuku. What are you thinking?"
"Hm?" I got a little lost in my thoughts "Oh, nothing really, just...thinking" They both looked at me curiously, should I tell them? I don't think it would hurt to do so "It's just that...before Izuku used to tell me everything, we used to go to many places together and now it seems like he's..."
"Ignoring?" I was cut off by the magic puppet "Kekeke, well it's possible that Midoriya-san just likes spending time with other people more than with you" Eh? NO! That's impossible.
This wretched rabbit seems to just like to make fun of me.
We walked for half an hour and by the time I was ready to rip the head off that damn rabbit, magic or not, it looked like we had reached the beach.
"Well Tohka-chan" Yeah, I should just destroy that puppet "Here we are" Yoshino doesn't seem to care what Yoshinon says so maybe he doesn't care what I want to do to him either...
"Aham! Tohka-chan!"
"WHAT?"
"Kukuku there's no need to make that scary face Tohka-chan, I just wanted to tell you that we're here" Oh? FINALLY.
At this moment I didn't know if I was happier for having found Izuku or because I don't have to talk to this stupid talking toy anymore.
I took a look at the dirty beach and realized that it was... clean? No, that wasn't the word I was looking for, I was still sure there was more trash than sand.
But it was certainly a lot cleaner than it had been a few months ago.
"Come on young Midoriya! You can do it!" That voice sounded familiar too but I couldn't remember from where either, it didn't help that when I saw where the booming voice was from I could only see a VERY skinny blond man, there was also the green haired woman I saw earlier with Izuku.
The two of them were sitting on a refrigerator that was being moved by ropes, ropes that were being pulled by ... Izuku...
WAIT A MINUTE
That's why he didn't tell us anything? Why were they bullying him by making him clean this beach alone? This was already ridiculous!
That's why Izuku never told me where he was going, he knew I'd defend him and he doesn't like that.

That's why he didn't tell us anything? Why were they abusing him by making him clean this beach alone? This was already ridiculous!
That's why Izuku never told me where he was going, he knew I'd defend him and he doesn't like that.
How many times I had already told him that I don't mind covering for him, he was too negative to realize that he already did so much for me, helping him with people who want to make him suffer is the least I could do.
"LEAVE IZUKU ALONE" I couldn't just watch them force him to do that "Sandalphon!" I had done this so many times that it was natural to me.
I stomped on the sand and the ground cracked a little, when I saw a handle sticking out of the break I simply pulled out my sword.
Everyone had told me that this was my 'Quirk' so I simply decided to go with the flow, but when I brought my sword another name came to mind.
An Angel, my Angel.
"EH! Tohka!?" I heard Izuku shout in surprise but I ignored him, I would no longer tolerate that happening to him.
For a long time Izuku always said that he would be a hero, initially I didn't want to be one or rather I didn't know if I wanted to be one.
On days like today and in situations like this I realize that I have to be one, not just to defend Izuku, but to defend people like him.
"Who are you young lady?" the blond man shouted in surprise but I don't care, I tighten my grip on Sandalphon and cut the refrigerator in half "Aaah".
The green haired girl is left flying on an old broom, as if she were a witch "What's wrong with you!? Are you crazy?"
I cut the rope that tied Izuku with great skill and I get in front of him "Relax, I'm here" I tell him.
"Tohka!?" The blond man stands up and he looks shocked.
"I don't know who they are but they are done treating Izuku badly, we'll leave and they won't bother him anymore" When the red-haired woman approached a little I pointed at them with Sandalphon and she just raised her hands.
"T-Tohka it's not what you think."
"You don't need to explain Izuku, I understand VERY well what is going on."
"Natsumi, please do it" I heard the blond man speak and look at the girl on top of the broom, when I saw her get off and grab her broom as if she was going to use it as a weapon I prepared myself for a possible confrontation.
"Alright, but that rude girl will have to apologize!" I got on my guard when I saw a glare cover the blond man "Haniel!"
And when the glow ceased the lanky man was now taller, muscular and wearing a suit very recognizable even to me.
"Young lady Tohka" And I finally understood why they were so familiar to me "Let me explain the situation please."
"Kukuku, you're so innocent Tohka-chan" This damn rabbit...
Okay Okay, I know that maybe I rushed a bit and jumped to conclusions about what was going on, but it was the THIRD time he was telling me... And that haughty smile was unbearable...
"I-I'm sorry for worrying you Tohka, but I want you to know that I didn't want you to know about this until I could go..."
Natsumi and All Might were looking at me with a slight smile that annoyed me a little, but you can't blame me for assuming that someone like Izuku was being bullied!
"Kekeke, for next time maybe you should think a little more before you act" Kuh... "Besides that it's not bad just accept
"Kekeke, for next time maybe you should think a little more before you act" Kuh... "Besides it's not wrong to simply accept that someone else has Midoriya-san's attention."
"Y-Yoshinon... I think you shouldn't say such things..." Say it Izuku! "Just because I find myself dating Natsumi-san more doesn't mean that I've forgotten about Tohka!" What?
If the rabbit really wasn't a living being thanks to magic then it would be strange to say that I felt like he was looking at me weird...
After my initial outburst All Might and Izuku told me everything, about the inherited power that I didn't quite understand how it worked and about how they were really training Izuku to be able to receive a Quirk.
I was happy for him, I really was, but this damn puppet kept bothering me.
"Kukuku, you see Tohka-chan? Even Midoriya-san accepts that you are now his second place to go out somewhere, at this rate he's going to forget you KUKUKU" Enough, I'll cut this toy in half and burn it.
"Tohka don't do it!" When I took the doll out of Yoshino's hand I felt as if the temperature dropped, but it didn't matter.
"G-Give it back please..." I heard Yoshino pleading but I didn't care either, I would destroy this doll. "Za-Zadkiel!" And after Yoshino shouted that the beach was covered with ice.
I definitely have to stop being impulsive.
