Hisashi Midoryia, in Inko Midoryia's eyes, was pure evil. "I'll come back when he has a Quirk." Were his words to her, before one final slap, and he was gone. At night, when her little baby was asleep, she'd cry for hours, fearing what would happen when Hisashi came back. That man was pure, unadulterated, evil in her eyes.
Izuku Midoryia, in Inkos eyes, was, by all standards, definitions, and purposes, an innocent child that loved heroes. She remembered when he first asked her if he could watch a hero video, she gave him an amused chuckle, picked him up, sat him in the computer chair, and asked which one he wanted to watch. He, quite obviously, asked to watch All-Mights hero debut video, the hero that he had idolized ever since he could coherently think.
He added maybe 10,000 views to that video alone in the next year.
The next year, was when little Izuku was 4, he was bouncing in the backseat, his little eyes filled to the brim with excitement and hope. "Oh, Oh! Mommy, what if my Quirk was like yours and Daddy's! Then, I could attract flames to me, and move them around!" She winced as he mentioned his father. He was most likely going to come back this year, and if Izuku had a Quirk, then he'd take away her little ray of sunshine. She shuddered at that thought.

Oh no. Nonononono NO! As Inko drove home from the doctor, she knew that her little baby was going to be taken away from her indefinetly. The doctor had confirmed that little Izuku had a Quirk, and a strong one at that. Apparently, he had a mutation of her and Hisashi's Quirks. They figured that out after the doctor took out a lighter, lit it, and the flame immediately began to float around Izuku. Izuku was ectsatic, of course, keeping the little flame between his palms the entire car ride home, muttering about the applications, techniques, and possible combat situations for it. Even at 4, her baby always showed he was a genious.
That was when dread filled her stomach as she saw his car. "Izuku?" She hated having to do this. "Yeah, mom?" She really hated having to do this. "Honey, we're going have to tell Daddy a little white lie, okay?" Izuku tilted his head curiously, eyes narrowed slightly, and eyebrows furrowed. "Izuku, you need to pretend you're Quirkless while Daddy's here." That was when she saw it, his wide eyes, and his lips curl into a frown. "B-But why, Mommy?" Inko felt it, her eyes glistening, but she shook it away. "Honey, he's going to take you away if he finds out about your Quirk. And he's a not so very nice man to me, and if he takes you with him, he'll probably be not so very nice to you, too." She saw it, in his eyes, the resolution. "O-Okay Mommy, only because I wanna stay with you." She felt her heart swell as he dispersed the little flame, before looking down.

Hisahsi, as it turns out, was pissed at the revelation his son was 'a Quirkless bastard'. She saw it, the white hot rage, and flames, in his eyes, as smoke threatened to pour from his mouth. When Izuku came to ask what was wrong, he was promptly struck by Hisashi. Inko rushed to his side, eyes watering, as her estranged 'Lover' spat on her back, and walked out, saying a "See you never, whore."
She was going to protect her baby, no matter what.
