Chapter 1: Wrath
-Mustutafu Japan-
In the apartment home of the widowed pro hero Hisashi Midoriya, aka the Dragon Breath Hero: Ryujin, the man was currently trying to get his four year old son, Izuku, ready for his first day of preschool.
Hisashi was a tall man with curly black hair with freckles, an athletic build and a scruffy goatee on his chin.
"You ready to go, green bean?" The man smiled, currently dressed in a gray suit, black striped tie and brown shoes, since he was off duty for the day.
"Yeah!" The green haired tyke exclaimed eagerly, dressed in a simple green shirt, khaki shorts and a pair of red shoes.
"Alright, let's get you off to your preschool orientation. Don't want to be late, now do we?" The man smiled as he hoisted his son onto his shoulders and headed out the door.

Meanwhile, across the street in a vacant apartment room, a woman was nested near a window—her purple and pink hair coming around her eye like a scope as a sniper rifle came from her elbow.
"Sorry, kid, but some people are jackasses like this…" She sighed, getting a round ready.
This was Lady Nagant, one of the best hitwomen in Japan. The reason she was prepping for a kill across from the Midoriya household was due to her superiors getting scared of Izuku since he was showing signs of being part demon at his age.
This was due to him having a quirk similar to Full Counter, the power of Meliodas the Dragon Sin of Wrath—who himself was a known demon—and the boy actually being suspected of destroying an entire city block when he witnessed the death of his mother—the means of which for both occurrences being unknown.
Lady Nagant wanted to call bullshit on that, but given how quirks were, it was difficult to do that. Now here she was, about to snuff out a child's life at the behest of frightened superiors.
But as she lined up the shot with the boy's head—hoping to at least make his death a quick one—she froze when something happened that made the very marrow in her bones go cold.
Izuku snapped his head in her direction and his gaze bored into her soul, his eyes a hazy mix of black and purple, and the same color pulsing through his body.
"Try me." He mouthed with a glare no four year old should have.
This caused Nagant to freeze and not pull the trigger, instead retracting her weapon and immediately going to the bathroom and puking.
Suddenly, the hitwoman was starting to see why her superiors were scared of the kid…
'… I think it's time I turned in my two weeks notice.' The woman thought as she washed her face in the sink basin.
(Later)
"What do you mean you quit?" A member of the Hero Public Safety Commission questioned as Lady Nagant stepped into his office.
"You know exactly what you heard." The now ex-hitwoman replied. "I saw the look in that kid's eyes, and it frightened me. A lot." She added with a shiver. "It's clear that killing him will be just as difficult as trying to kill Meliodas himself." She continued.
The man leveled a stern glare at her before sighing. "I can see that there's no point in arguing this with you." He sighed. "I just realize that this means that your days of working with the HSPC as a hero will be over." He added.
"At this point, I'd hardly call it being a hero. So that's fine by me." The woman said, placing her badge on the man's desk and walking away without another word.
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile Hisashi was leaving Izuku's school after dropping him off, and decided to call his cousin to try and get a job with his agency to help him and his son get better living conditions.
"Yes? This is the Todoroki Household." A gruff man answered.
"Enji! It's me, Hisashi. Wuzzup cuz?" The man greeted jubilantly.
"Hisashi?!" Enji gasped in surprise. "I wasn't expecting a call from you. What's the occasion?" He asked.
"I was hoping I could take on one of your sidekick positions. I'm kinda having a hard time keeping a consistent workflow going so having a more stable part time job that pays just as well as a full time job would really help things." Hisashi replied.
"Oh really? Little Ryujin thinks he can play with the big boys?" Enji chuckled.
"I dunno: can the No. 2 hero grow a real beard?" He questioned with a quip.
A tense silence passed before both men burst out laughing.
"Oh man that was good!" The flame hero laughed. "I'll get the paperwork ready for you." He told him. "Assuming parenting hasn't made you soft." He added.
"Hey. I'm good. All I'd need is a sitter for Izuku, no one's been willing to do so since, well…" The Dragon Breath Hero began.
"The Tatooine incident?" His cousin surmised.
"Yeah… The incident that happened after that villain killed Inko…" Hisashi sighed sadly.
He could still hear the cruel laughter of that bastard of a villain, the despairing cries of his son begging for his mother to get up… And the wrath fueled roar of his son came shortly thereafter—before the entire city block was reduced to a bottomless pit via a black hole.
It took a lot of effort to cover that debacle up, but even with all that effort—Izuku was still saddled with a less than savory nickname.
The Dragon Sin, the Sin of Wrath.
Those that knew the truth were witnesses that avoided him like the plague, and that was torture for Hisashi. It's part of the reason why they moved. New city, new life.
As they said this, the phone changed hands.
"Hello? Hisashi? It's me, Rei." A female voice said.
"Oh, Rei. Hi." The Dragon Breath Hero uttered, snapping out of his trip down memory lane.
"Enji and I were just talking and I think it would be a good idea if you and Izuku were to move into our two guest rooms." The woman told him. "We never use them all that often and it would save you time and money on finding a place. Not to mention I think the kids would like having their cousin around." She added.
"That sounds like a good idea. I think we'll take you up on that offer." Hisashi nodded.
"That's good to hear." Rei smiled.
(Later)
Hanging up the phone, Hisashi decided to stop by a ramen shop that he tended to frequent due to its spicy shin bone broth beef ramen being his favorite.
But as he turned the corner to where he usually did to get to the place, he accidentally bumped into someone.
"Oh, sorry. I was lost in thought." The man apologized as he looked at who he bumped into.
As he looked at the person he bumped into, his eyes widened in surprise when he saw that he bumped into a beautiful woman. And beautiful was the correct word he was looking for.
Unknown to him, he was looking at the one who nearly pulled the trigger on his son.
"Ugh, it's fine. I think I was making a wrong turn anyway." The woman groaned as she rubbed her head. "… Dragon Breath Hero: Ryujin, right?" She questioned.
"Off duty right now, but yeah. Why?" The green haired man asked in reply.
"Lady Nagant, former rifle hero." The woman replied, shaking his hand. "I actually just retired from working with the HSPC." She added.
"What made you retire?" Hisashi asked with a raised eyebrow.
"They went from me incapacitating people for other heroes, to being a hit woman." She explained.
Since he was a pro hero, she figured he'd at least be able to understand.
"… How many confirmed kills?" He questioned as she followed him.
"Fifty. It's the fifty-first that made me want to quit." She replied.
"What was that one supposed to be?" Hisashi questioned, wondering what made her quit.
"It was a hit on… Your son." The woman admitted reluctantly, causing the Dragon Breath Hero to freeze mid-step.
"... What?" He uttered in a dangerous tone as he gave the retired rifle hero a hard look. It was a look that said "speak quickly before my fists do the talking."
"H-He scared me into retirement!" Kaina yelped in fear. "He somehow knew I was aiming at him and gave me a demon glare!" She continued without thinking.
"… That must've been his demonic side showing." The man sighed as they kept walking. "They must've sent you due to what happened when Izuku was two: The Tatooine incident." He elaborated.
"That's actually right." The woman nodded as her nerves calmed down. "They noticed how similar he was becoming to Meliodas himself, so they wanted to stop him from becoming a problem later down the road." She continued. "The problem with that, though, is the fact that killing someone with demon blood without the right equipment or resolve isn't a walk on a casual Tuesday." She added further with a sigh.
"He's also still a child. So there's a chance that he could turn out differently." The man nodded. "I mean. Meliodas is remembered as a hero, even now. There's a reason for that." He added.
"True." Kaina nodded as she recalled that particular detail. "Well, just know that I was fully against the idea from minute one." She added.
"And I believe you." Hisashi nodded. "… Look. I got a while before I gotta pick Izuku up from school… Wanna grab something to eat?" He offered.
"Sure. I'm actually starting to feel hungry." The woman nodded, feeling her stomach rumble slightly.
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile with said boy, the four year old was busy drawing something on a piece of paper: A red dragon made of several circles that was eating its own tail.
"What are you drawing?" A new voice asked him.
The boy looked up and saw a girl around his age with spiky Pomeranian blonde hair and red eyes, leaning down next to him to look at his drawing.
"Just something I saw in a book." Izuku replied. "Something on old legends." He added.
"It looks like a dragon." The blonde hummed, sitting next to him. "Do you like dragons?" She asked.
"Yeah! They're big and cool!" Izuku nodded with a smile. "And they breathe fire, like my dad!" He added.
"Heh, you're funny, kid." The blonde smiled. "I'm Katsumi Bakugo." She told him.
"I'm Izuku Midoriya." The boy replied with a smile.
"Hey, weren't you the kid that was at that strip mall that blew up?" The girl questioned.
"Please don't talk about that…" Izuku muttered with a flinch and a sad face.
"Oh, sorry." The girl frowned, before she put something on the boy's drawing—it was an All Might action figure.
The viridian haired boy blinked at the toy and picked it up, looking at Katsumi curiously.
"We're friends now, so I think that'll be a good gift for you." She shrugged. "I already have one of these, so you might as well have it." She smiled.
"... Thanks." The green haired tyke smiled after a moment.
Katsumi just smiled back, finding the smaller boy's smile rather cute.
(Timeskip)
A week later, the two Midoriya men moved in with the Todorokis, and Izuku was a bit nervous about being around his extended family—but soon took to Shoto and Fuyumi rather well.
"Hey Enji." Hisashi said as he watched the kids play. "Touya's hair, when did it turn white?" He asked.
"A few months ago. He overworked himself in training with his quirk." The flame bearded man replied with a sigh.
"You should really start caring more about your kids." The man said. "How would you feel if Touya, or Shoto ended up dying because you pushed them too far?" He added, shooting a strong glare at his cousin. "Nothing? Or would you even acknowledge it if it happened?" He questioned.
"If they can't take it and that shows, I'll stop." Enji grunted in reply. "… I wanted at least one of them to surpass All Might." He muttered.
"Are you serious?! Pushing your dream onto a child? How disgusting can you be?!" Hisashi snapped, fire tickling the back of his throat.
"Let me finish." The Flame Hero said. "You remember how my father and sister died, correct?" He questioned.
"Yeah. Uncle Endo died trying to save Shouko from a collapsing building. Why?" The black haired man asked.
"I had a chance to save them, but wasn't strong enough." His cousin replied. "I want them to surpass All Might not just for the satisfaction—but so that they can be strong enough to save the people closest to them, when it matters most." He continued. "Isn't that what you want for Izuku? To be strong enough to not experience the same suffering as you have?" He asked.
"It is, but… Well, you know…" The Dragon Breath hero sighed in reply, subtly referring to the Tatooine incident and how he could still know suffering, no matter what. His cousin caught the hint. "You should still try to change your dynamic with your family. Right now, it borders on abuse, your dynamic with Rei is completely loveless—I'm telling you, that's only going to cause problems." He added.
"... It's not as easy as it seems…" Enji sighed after a moment.
"It is. It'd be better late than never, and it's never too late to change." The Dragon Breath hero told his cousin.
With the kids…
"Take this!" Touya yelled as he sent a flaming hot dodgeball at Izuku's face.
"Ah! Full Counter!" The meek boy yelped as he swung a wooden sword in front of himself, sending the ball flying back at the older boy.
"Whoa!" The white haired Todoroki yelped as he dodged it, causing it to impact against the wall and leave a scorch mark. "What was that?!" He wondered in surprise.
"M-My quirk." Izuku gulped.
"So you can send whatever shot is sent at you back to the sender?" Shoto blinked.
"Y-Yeah." The green haired boy nodded in reply, looking a little shy.
"That'll be annoying for Villains to deal with…" Natsuo mused as he and his siblings continued to look at their cousin.
"Yeah. You could knock them out with their own attacks." Shoto nodded.
"Yeah… I guess so." Izuku nodded as he looked at the sword in his hand.
(Timeskip)
It was about half a year later and Izuku and Hisashi had begun to get used to their new home—and surprisingly—Enji had started to take Hisashi's advice to heart.
It would seem that seeing how devastated his cousin was at the loss of his wife made the No. 2 Hero relive the loss of his own father and sister. And though it didn't make him do a complete 180–he did at least seem to be coming around to his cousin's way of thinking, albeit at a snail's pace.
Now though, the fire breathing man was having coffee with his cousin and his wife one morning when Rei spoke up.
"So Hisashi, what can you tell us about this woman you've been seeing?" She questioned with a smile, causing the man to nearly bite his tongue.
"H-Huh?!" Hisashi stammered in surprise, a blush on his face.
"Yes, I'm curious about what kind of woman that seems to have captured your heart." Enji smirked teasingly.
"We-we just went on a couple dates I'd hardly call us a couple." The man stammered.
"No, but you seem to be thinking about it." The flame bearded man chuckled.
"… Shut up." The man muttered as he sipped his coffee.
(Later)
Hisashi sighed as he left Izuku at school, the boy running off to join his female friend Katsumi, and rounded the corner to head to the Endeavor agency.
"So do you always walk to work or do you ever try to do less leg work?" A voice questioned, causing him to turn and see Kaina.
"I don't have a car, so it's all walking for me, sadly." Hisashi replied with a shrug.
The woman was dressed pretty simply, just a white t-shirt and jeans with some tennis shoes, but even with the simple ensemble, she still looked gorgeous due to how her figure was made very pronounced.
"You really gotta do something about that." Kaina remarked as she walked up to him.
"Sure…" The man nodded. "Any particular reason you're standing outside my son's school?" He questioned.
"You, actually." The woman replied with a smirk. "Are you up for another date?" She asked, smirk still in place.
"Well I gotta go to work right now, actually." The Dragon Breath Hero told her.
"Oh. My bad." Kaina blinked sheepishly. "Maybe after? Or some other time?" She offered.
"Definitely." He nodded.
(Later)
Later on Izuku was walking home, and Katsumi was walking with him.
"Is your place close to school or something?" The girl wondered.
"We're actually staying with my aunt and uncle, but they aren't home right now." Izuku explained.
"Oh, so you wanna introduce me to you dad while they're out or something?" The blonde summed up.
"If he's home, sure." Izuku nodded as they walked into the house. "Dad? Natsu? Guys? Where're you at?" He called.
"In here, cuz!" Natsuo called back.
The boy quickly went into the living room where he found everyone sitting around, with Hisashi watching them, accompanied by a woman Izuku didn't recognize.
"Uh, who's the new face, dad?" Izuku asked with a blink.
'He knew I was watching him, but he couldn't see my face.' Kaina noted mentally. 'Expected, given the distance between us at the time.' She figured.
"This is Kaina, she's someone I met a while back." His dad told him. Then he noticed Katsumi. "And I guess this is the friend you decided to finally introduce me to for real, huh?" He teased slightly.
"Dad!" The boy groaned.
"Wait, so your dad's the Dragon Breath hero Ryujin and your uncle is Endeavor?!" Katsumi questioned in shock. "Some family tree!" She exclaimed.
"Hehe, yeah… It's a crazy family I have…" Izuku chuckled awkwardly.
"Izuku's got a girlfriend! Izuku's got a girlfriend!" Touya and Natsuo sang while Shoto ate some cold soba.
"A-At least I can get one…" Izuku rebuked awkwardly, causing Hisashi and Kaina's eyes to go wide before they burst out laughing.
Fuyumi, meanwhile, tried to hide her own laughter and Shoto nearly choked on his soba while Touya and Natsuo just stared blankly at him.
And Katsumi…
"BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" She howled, falling to the floor in laughter and rolling around as tears escaped her eyes.
Izuku blushed at all this, embarrassed.
(Later)
"Wait, so your quirk makes you immune to spice?" The blonde questioned.
"Yep. It actually helped me win several spicy food challenges." Hisashi smirked before he suddenly looked sheepish. "But once people figured that out, I was banned from doing those challenges for life." He added, causing Kaina to snicker in amusement.
"Ha! I bet I could do that without your quirk!" The Pomeranian laughed, causing the other kids to snort.
"Kacchan, I don't think that's a good idea…" Izuku whispered.
"Oh shush, Izu. I can take him on." Katsumi whispered back.
"Alright, then." The man nodded as he pulled a habanero from his lunch box and set it down on the table while Shoto got some milk. "Eat this without any milk and I'll believe you." He challenged.
"Challenge accepted!" Katsumi grinned, gabbing the pepper and eating it in one bite.
Seconds later… It didn't take long for the blonde to start going red in the face, and then start downing the milk.
"And like that, I am still the champ." Hisashi chuckled with a smirk.
"Piss off, old man!" The girl snapped, chugging down the milk while Izuku laughed at her. "Oh you think it's funny, huh?!" The blonde snapped before she kissed the boy on the lips for a brief second—spreading the capsaicin that was still on her lips to the boy's mouth, causing him to start spazzing.
"HOOOOOOOOOT!" He yelled comically before snatching the milk from Katsumi and chugging it while she laughed at him.
"Direct and indirect kisses, skipping a full decade ahead, these two." Kaina nodded.
"I'm so proud of my son…" The Dragon Breath Hero sniffed proudly.
It was at this point that Enji and Rei walked in and paused at the scene before them.
"... What in the world is going on?" The No. 2 Hero wondered with a perplexed look on his face, which his wife shared.
"Oh, Izuku's unofficial girlfriend over here found out I'm immune to spice and challenged me." Hisashi explained in reply. "She lost, and she smooched Izuku so he would feel her pain—then all hell broke loose." He continued.
"... I'm too tired for this crap." Rei sweatdropped before she turned and left the room.
(Timeskip)
"You're leaving? Why?" Enji questioned two years later as Hisashi and Izuku began packing.
"Well, Izuku and I have decided to move in with Kaina and I've finally managed to get to where I can open up my own Hero agency." The man replied. "We don't want to impose on you guys any longer with that in mind." He added.
"But we don't even mind, and our kids enjoy having Izuku around." Rei told him.
"I know, but we can't stay here forever, Rei." Hisashi told her as Izuku got his bags packed. "But we'll always be there for you guys, don't worry." He told them.
"Yeah. We're not cutting off contact with you forever." Izuku nodded in agreement.
The Todoroki kids hugged their cousin and uncle tightly as they got packed, clearly the kids weren't happy about this situation.
(Later)
"Thanks for letting us move in here with you, Kaina." Hisashi said as he and Izuku started unpacking their luggage.
"I wasn't about to leave you on the streets." The woman smiled at her boyfriend.
Yes, Hisashi and Kaina were dating. After a few dates that hit off well, the two decided to hook up for real and have been that way for the past two years.
And luckily for them both, Izuku seemed to take to his new stepmother extremely well.
The little green bean giggled as he jumped into the woman's arms, hugging her tightly.
"I love you too, son." The woman chuckled.
"Yep, I'd say we're one step closer to being a family." Hisashi nodded. "There's just one thing missing…" He added, as he pulled something from his pocket.
'Hold up, is he about to…?!' Kaina thought with a light gasp.
"Kaina, would you…?" He questioned before the woman stopped him.
"Before you say anything. The answer is yes." She told him, holding a finger to his lips.
"In that case…" Hisashi trailed off as he opened the ring box to show that an engagement ring was indeed sitting in it as he put the jewelry on her right ring finger.
Kaina smiled as she leapt into his arms, kissing him while Izuku hugged them both.
After a good many years, the Midoriya family was finally whole.
(Timeskip)
It was a few months later and the Todorokis had made it a habit to visit the Midoriyas on the regular, particularly when Enji—despite Hisashi's best efforts to get him to continue the course he'd suggested more strongly—got too aggressive with Rei and the kids.
The man was learning of course, he saw the problems it was causing, but his stubbornness seriously compromised his progress in that regard.
Hisashi and Izuku were growing concerned that something bad was going to happen if this continued, but the former of the two didn't know what to do to divert Enji in time before that point was reached.
They just hoped that things would get better—or force Enji to change before things go out of control.
Little did they know that it was exactly that…
(Later)
Hisashi and Izuku were relaxing with Kaina in the living room when a heavy and frantic knocking on the door was heard, getting their attention.
"What the…?" Hisashi blinked as he went and answered the door… Which allowed Touya to collapse into his arms, but that wasn't the worst part.
He was completely burnt to a crisp!
"TOUYA!" He yelled in alarm, causing Izuku and Kaina to rush to the front door in worry.
"Hisashi, what's—oh no." The ex-Rifle Hero gasped in abject horror as she saw her fiancé's nephew—her nephew—in a near death state. "We need to get him to a hospital, quickly!" She said.
"There's no time, not with him in this state!" The Dragon Breath Hero exclaimed in worry.
"I'll go get the medical kit!" Izuku exclaimed as he rushed to get the med-kit.
"We'll need to stabilize him first." Hisashi said. "Kaina, you call his parents and tell the hospital. He'll need immediate medical attention if we can get him stable." He added.
"On it!" Kaina nodded as she got on the phone. She dialed the hospital and filled them in right as Izuku came rushing back with the med-kit.
"Dad, here!" Izuku exclaimed quickly as he handed his father the kit.
"Thanks, Izuku! Get clear, I need space to work!" He told his son, who immediately stood back.
Muffled screams came from Touya as Hisashi performed emergency surgery on the boy… before administering painkillers and burn medication before wrapping him up.
"Okay, he's stable. For now." Hisashi sighed, dried and dehydrated blood all over his body.
Meanwhile, Kaina was on the line with Rei about Touya.
"Rei, Touya just stumbled into my house burnt to a crisp! What the hell happened over there?!" She questioned, equally freaked out and agitated by what happened.
"It must've been when he went to Sekhito Peak! He wanted to show his father how far his training had come—but Enji didn't show!" Rei gasped frantically.
"How'd he burn himself so badly, then?! Did he overexert himself out of anger?!" Kaina asked.
"I don't know! Enji doesn't either! He's… I don't even know how to describe it. He's angry, I can tell but—it's like he's just barely keeping himself together." The mother of four rambled, clearly distraught as her husband supposedly was.
"Well we're gonna get him patched up enough for him to survive until the paramedics arrive! We'll get back to you about his status after!" The former hitwoman told her.
"Got it! I'll let Enji know! Stay safe!" Rei acknowledged before ending the call.
"Okay… I got him stable." The man sighed, his hands shaking like a leaf in a storm.
"I just got off the phone with Rei. She and Enji don't know how this happened, so we'll have to ask Touya when he's in good enough shape." Kaina told him.
"This is exactly what I was afraid of…" The father of one sighted as he sat down.
"Hisashi…" His fiancé sighted as she hugged him. "You can't blame yourself. You said it yourself: Enji, for all his trying to be better, was doing better—but not quick enough. And Touya was getting stronger—but too quickly. This was almost inevitable." She added.
"I hate that it was…" Hisashi sighed as he watched Izuku look at Touya, a worried look on the boy's face.
The younger boy hugged his cousin, tears running down his face, wanting to just make the boy feel better.
(Timeskip)
It was years later, and Touya was successfully brought to the hospital—but the damage he suffered caused him to be stuck in an induced coma while Izuku's own doctor—a doctor Garaki—worked on him to at least try and help him recover, resulting in Touya being taken to a different hospital for further treatment.
Enji didn't do much to keep updated from then on, his spirit seemingly drained from seeing Touya—his boy—in such a state.
It didn't make him get worse, thankfully, but it definitely slowed what change he was making.
This had the unfortunate consequence of causing Rei to break, burning Shoto and being forced to be put in a hospital—much to everyone, including Endeavor's dismay.
Katsumi, upon hearing what had happened, didn't hesitate to let Izuku cry into her shoulder. It was traumatizing, what happened, and it showed.
This was the state everything was now. For better or worse.
(Timeskip)
Seven years later, Izuku sighed as he made his way to school—having grown quite a bit since his preschool days, now that he is in middle school.
He'd gotten a fair bit of muscle on him, enough for a runner's build. His mastery of Full Counter had improved over the years, too.
Mainly because his stepmom used her quirk and had him deflect her shots in a bid to improve his reflexes. It was a successful attempt in the end, though.
This allowed him to learn three things: One, he could repel emitter and physical attack quirks so long as he saw the attack coming or perceived it with a weapon in hand. Two, he can rebound attacks with double the impact and do so multiple times to increase said impact. Three, he can shut his counter off and absorb the full brunt of attacks, and release it all in one move as a 'Revenge Counter'.
Another thing that had happened was that after a year and a half following what happened to Touya, Hisashi and Kaina had gotten married. Izuku was thrilled to have that happen since his old man deserved happiness in his life.
But right now he was headed to school when his commute was interrupted with a villain attack, which was swiftly taken down by a new Hero—Mt. Lady.
When she started providing fanservice, Izuku facepalmed.
"Un-fucking-believable…" He muttered, deciding to continue on his way and save his braincells.
(Later)
The green haired boy sighed as he sat down at his desk, but as he sat his bags down, he failed to notice a girl in the same uniform as him sat down on his desk.
Before he could react, the girl's left leg found a perch on his right shoulder, getting his attention.
"Guess who?" A voice purred.
"Really, Katsumi?" He chuckled upon looking up, seeing the blonde smiling down at him.
"Hello." Katsumi smiled as she spun herself into his lap, hugging his neck. "You miss me?" She whispered in his ear.
"What do you think the answer is gonna be?" Izuku grinned before he kissed her square on the lips.
This was another thing; in their second year of middle school, they decided to get together. The whole school knew it was coming, and hollered when it happened.
"… Mmm!" The blonde moaned before she felt something. "What the…?" She questioned before she noticed that Izuku's hand was underneath her skirt and squeezing her ass.
"You knew this was gonna happen." Izuku chuckles as he fondles her ass. This was another thing, Izuku could be a bit of a pervert when it came to his girlfriend.
"You damn pervert..." The Pomeranian growled before she kissed him again as their teacher arrived.
(Later)
"So you're planning on going to UA, too?" Katsumi questioned as Izuku got his stuff packed, the girl sitting on his desk as he did.
"Does that surprise you?" The boy questioned.
"Nah. If anything, I expected you to do that. UA would've been so fucking boring otherwise." The pomeranian haired girl chuckled in reply.
"Yeah, sure." The Dragon Sin chuckled.
"Hey." The blonde said as she looked her boyfriend in the eye. "After school, stop over at my house—my parents aren't home." She told him, causing the boy to raise an eyebrow.
Typically when the phrase "my parents aren't home" was uttered it was typically true—but it also had another meaning.
That being that the explosive blonde was feeling frisky.
"Roger that." The green haired boy nodded with an eager look.
(Later)
Izuku yawned as he took off his outside shirt, revealing that his chest had a red tattoo like the drawing he made going across his whole chest.
"Man, UA is gonna be fun if me and Kacchan both get in." He mused as he walked along.
But he didn't realize that a manhole cover popped up behind him—revealing a massive sludge monster that was apparently under it.
"Perfect! A meat suit!" He gurgled out, causing Izuku to snap around and glare him down.
"Meatsuit?!" He snapped. "Oh hell no! I'm kicking your slimy ass for that!" He yelled angrily.
His eyes turned the same dark color as a star swirl formed on his forehead, and the sludge creature was slammed against the bridge wall by invisible force.
"What the–?!" The sludge man uttered, trying to move but failing.
"You're not going to touch me. So leave." The boy growled, splattering the villain across the wall in a matter of seconds—making him resemble an eyeballed rendition of the Nickelodeon logo.
Then someone else burst out of the sewers.
"There's no– need for me to fight, apparently." The figure noted, and Izuku knew right away it was All Might, who was wearing a white shirt and some military camo pants and a pair of boots.
"Oh, hey All Might. Took care of the idiot over here." He told the man.
All Might seemed confused for a moment—before he finally realized exactly who he was talking to.
Izuku Midoriya, son of the Dragon Breath Hero: Ryujin, and the boy known as the Dragon Sin of Wrath—and for good reason.
He too had heard of the Tatooine Incident, and didn't really fault the boy for the reaction he had to losing his mother in front of him like he did. He actually felt bad that he had some stigmas around him, too, feeling that it was unfair for a child to have such a burden on his shoulders.
"Young man…" The Symbol of Peace began as he started gathering up the villain in a bottle. "You wouldn't happen to be Izuku Midoriya, would you?" He asked as they stepped out from the bridge.
"I am." The teen nodded in reply. "Why?" He asked in return.
"I thought I recognized you." The man nodded. "Your reputation precedes you." He explained.
"I am very aware of that. It's hard for me not to be." Izuku stated.
"I'm familiar with what happened. I'm sorry for what you went through." He told the boy.
"Thanks, I guess." The boy nodded. "All Might… Do you think I can still be a hero? Considering how I am?" He questioned.
"... If you're anything like Meliodas, then you definitely have a chance." The No. 1 Hero nodded after a moment of thought.
"… Thank you." The boy smiled. "Come on, I know a shortcut to the police department from here." He told the man.
"I'll take that offer." The man nodded.
(Later)
Katsumi sighed as she made her way to her house after grabbing a few things, drinking a bottle of Ramune as she walked—and noticed something across the street.
It was Izuku, and he was walking with some gaunt looking man she didn't recognize.
"Who's that he's walking with?" She wondered, looking confused. "Hey!" She called, running up to the two.
"Oh, hey Kaccha—OW!" The Dragon Sin smiled as he turned to greet his girlfriend, only for her to drive her fist into his head, creating a bump. "What was that for?!" He yelled, clutching his head.
"You asshole! I thought we agreed to meet at my place after school?" The blonde snapped.
"Yeah, we did." Izuku nodded, rubbing his throbbing cranium.
"Then what the hell are you doing here on the other side of fucking town?!" The Pomeranian barked.
"I had a freak encounter with a sludge villain. I fought him off, but I gotta get to the police station to hand him over." Izuku replied. "This guy's just helping out." He added, gesturing to the gaunt man that she didn't know was actually All Might.
"This a friend of yours, young Midoriya?" The man asked.
"Girlfriend, actually." The Sin of Wrath nodded. "This is Katsumi Bakugo." He told the blonde.
"And this green haired yarn ball of self loathing was supposed to meet me later." Katsumi nodded with a sigh before she just smiled and hugged the boy tightly. "But I guess we'll just have to walk together." She added in feigned distaste.
"You know you'll enjoy that." Izuku chuckled.
'These two definitely have a good dynamic...' The blonde man thought.
Meanwhile, in the man's pocket, two googly eyes opened up inside a bottle as the sludge villain regained consciousness.
'What… Happened…?' He thought before taking note of his surroundings. 'Oh great, I'm in a bottle in All Might's pocket and that brat is here.' He groaned mentally. 'Hang on… That girl looks like she'll make a good meat suit—Let's try it.' He thought.
Seconds later, the bottle burst open and before either Izuku or All Might could react—the Sludge villain started forcing himself down her throat.
"GET THE HELL OFF MY GIRLFRIEND, YOU SLIMY BASTARD!" Izuku roared furiously.
He was about to attack as the creature forced itself into the blonde's body, and his fist missed her face on instinct and instead socked her in the gut.
This actually had the unintended (but welcome) effect of forcefully making Katsumi puke up the villain since there was a decent amount of power behind the attack. Katsumi gagged and coughed as she recovered from the unexpected slime attack while Izuku stood ready.
"Urgh, I feel like I just swallowed something that should've come out of me, not gone in me." The girl coughed, gagging.
"Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened." Izuku told her with a sigh.
"I knew we should've checked to make sure he was still unconscious…" All Might groaned.
"Talk about a rookie mistake…" The Dragon Sin groaned in agreement.
"You're dead, kid!" The monster roared as it lunged at the boy and tried to smash him with a slimy hand—only for Izuku to take a pencil out and swipe it.
"Full Counter." He intoned.
The end result was that the villain not only had his attack sent back at him, but also was smeared across the surrounding area. He was also unconscious, if the lack of a reaction following this was any indication.
"And STAY DOWN!" Katsumi yelled, face still green.
"I think he will." The hidden No. 1 hero sweatdropped. "We should probably get him cleaned up… Again." He added with a groan.
"Right…" Izuku groaned as well.
(Later)
Izuku and Katsumi decided to go different routes to the girl's house due to news squads swarming them.
It was pretty annoying, but it had to be done.
'Damned news vultures…' He groaned. The media was so annoying to deal with… but as he kept walking, his mind wandered back to when he met All Might.
(Flashback)
"Uh, All Might? You okay? You're steaming." The Dragon Sin noted as he walked with the man to the police station.
'Shit! Not now!' The man thought in panic before he found himself covered in steam, much to Izuku's worry.
"All Might, are you alright?!" He asked with concern in his voice.
As the steam cleared away, All Might's deflated state was revealed, causing Izuku to stare at the man.
"What… What happened to you?" He questioned, noting that the man looked emaciated, but seemed to be on the mend and gaining back some weight.
"Well since you saw… It's because of this." The man sighed as he pulled up his shirt, and Izuku nearly puked at the horrid looking scar on his abdomen. "A product of a nasty fight from five years ago." He told the teen. "I'm only recovering due to a full stomach transplant." He explained.
"Five years ago? There's no way Toxic Chainsaw could've done that." Izuku muttered, recalling that particular fight.
"You definitely know your stuff, and you're right, it wasn't him." The blonde nodded. "This came from a different fight, one that had to be kept under wraps. If people knew that their Symbol of Peace got hurt, they'd cause chaos." He continued.
"So this left you in a diminished state from then on." The Dragon Sin nodded.
"Yeah, now I'm only able to be All Might for about five hours at a time. Honestly? I just smile like I do to hide the fear I feel." He nodded, looking at the boy. "I was actually trying to track down the villain that I thought back then around the time of the Tatooine Incident—otherwise I would've been there." He added.
"The fact that you fight through your fear means you're truly brave. To tell you the truth… It's that I think you should be scared of me… Everyone else is." The Sin of Wrath sighed, looking at his hand. "Only a monster could do what I did back then—that means that I'm a monster." He added.
"I'd hardly call you that." The man told him, causing Izuku to look at him. "It's not fair to call a kid a monster because he unleashed a power he didn't even know he had—especially since you had no control over it at all." He continued.
"You… Don't think I'm a monster?" He questioned in surprise.
"No." The Symbol of Peace told him, rubbing his hair. "I think you're a child. A child who was hurt, deeply hurt, and you handled it… Unskillfully." He continued. "What you have to remember, Young Midoriya, is that goodness isn't a destination that you reach. Any person can have good in them, even the vilest of villains. It's a practice—a skill that can only be maintained through patience, wisdom and vigilance." He added.
"... Thank you. Hearing that is like a breath of fresh air." Izuku sighed in relief, glad that he caught a good break from all the stigmas aimed at him.
"My pleasure." The No. 1 hero smiled.
(Flashback End)
'Come to think of it, what's All Might up to now?' He wondered idly as he kept walking.
"HAHA! I am here!" The man exclaimed as he came out of nowhere.
"Aaaaaaah!" The boy screamed, jumping a few feet in the air in surprise. "Don't do that!" He yelped.
"Sorry." The man apologized before he deflated. "But there's one matter I wanted to talk to you about. It's up there with your demon side, actually." He continued, which caught Izuku's interest.
"Uh… Okay? What is it?" He asked cautiously.
"My quirk there's more to it than anyone realizes." The hero began. "It can be passed down from person to person." He revealed. "It's name is One for All." He continued.
"Why tell me this?" Izuku questioned with a raised eyebrow.
"Because I've decided to pass it down to you." All Might replied, causing a jolt of shock to go up Izuku's spine.
"Wait, seriously?!" The boy questioned, eyes wide.
"When I look at you and your past, I'm reminded of an old saying. Is it best for a person to be born wholly good? Or for even those with good intentions to overcome the evil within them through great effort?" The man mused. "You have the spirit and heart of a hero, that much is clear—but you also work hard to suppress a darkness that even you fear." He continued. "That makes me feel that you're more than worthy." He added.
"... Then I accept the burden you yourself have held." Izuku nodded resolutely.
"Glad to hear it." The Symbol of Peace smiled.
(Later)
Izuku hummed as he walked up to the front door of his girlfriend's house.
Knocking on the door, he was soon met not by Katsumi, but her mother Mitsuki.
The woman was the near spitting image of her daughter, but older, more mature and much sexier—basically your typical MILF.
She was practically a glimpse into Katsumi's future.
"Oh! Izuku. What're you doing here?" She questioned.
"Kacchan wanted me to come here after school." Izuku shrugged in reply. "Can I come in?" He asked.
"Sure. Come on." The blonde woman nodded as she led him inside. "How's your dad and stepmom these days?" She asked.
"They're amazing, and I'm still wondering how I have no little siblings yet." Izuku chuckled in reply as he entered the house.
"Well, Katsumi's been in a bit of a tizzy ever since I dropped my own bombshell yesterday." Mitsuki nodded.
"... You made her into a big sister, didn't you?" The boy asked flatly, but still smirked a bit.
"Masaru and I had been talking about having another kid for awhile now, we figured better sooner rather than later." The woman nodded.
"Figured." Izuku chuckled. "Anyway, is she in her room?" He asked.
"Yep. I think you know the way." The older woman nodded as Izuku made his way upstairs.
The Dragon Sin made his way to his girlfriend's room, knocking on the door.
"You enter and you die!" The Pomeranian barked.
"Honey. I'm home." The boy called back.
The door immediately flew open and revealed Katsumi, who was wearing a black sleeveless top and a pair of gray shorts.
"Get in here!" She ordered as she dragged him into her room.
Izuku was about to make a quip, but was prevented from doing so by his girlfriend pushing him against the closed door and kissing him—moaning loudly as her tongue entered his mouth.
Izuku didn't hesitate to pick her up by her legs and hold her like that, allowing the punk girl to wrap them around his waist.
"… I love you." The dragon sin gasped as they separated, causing Katsumi's face to turn red as she stared at him.
"I love you, too." The girl breathed as they started making out again.
The boy walked over to her bed and set her down on her bed, getting on top of her and started kissing her down her neck, and massaging her chest.
One did not need to guess which direction this was heading…
Tossing the girl's shirt aside, Katsumi quickly tore off the boy's uniform—and left them both naked as the rest of their clothes were discarded.
"Fuck me." The Pomeranian told him in a tone of absolute seriousness.
"You got it." Izuku nodded before the sounds of blissful moaning filled the house, much to Mitsuki's equal chagrin and exasperation.
"… Teenagers." The woman groaned.
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile at the Midoriya house…
"Hisashi, I have something you'll love to hear." Kaina smiled as she sat on her husband's lap.
"Oh? And what would that be?" Hisashi wondered with a smirk that the former rifle hero had grown to love.
The woman smiled as she leaned into his ear.
"You're going to be a daddy again." She whispered.
That made time seemingly stop for the Dragon Breath Hero… Before he let out a cheer as he shot to his feet and started spinning a happily squealing Kaina in the air.
"I'M GONNA HAVE ANOTHER CHILD!" He yelled in joy.
"That's right." The woman smiled as she kissed her husband.
"Izuku is gonna be ecstatic when he gets home." The fire breathing man sighed as he held his wife close.
"Yeah. He will." Kaina nodded as the two hugged each other tightly.
Dragon Emperor0: Hey guys. Well, here it is. You guys asked about this for several weeks, and we're finally writing it. Sorry it took so long. We just had a hard time deciding what to do with this story and what to include or change. But luckily, I think we have a good enough blueprint now.
ThermalsniperN7: Yeah. For the first time, we're deciding to do a story where Hisashi is actually present. This is actually based on the MHA What If series covered by We the Celestials.
Dragon Emperor0: Seeing as I actually used to work for said YouTube channel, I think I'm more than qualified to use their work as inspiration—so long as proper credit is given. But that's beside the point. You may notice that we spent a bit longer on the backstory here—that's intentional, to make things extra solid.
ThermalsniperN7: Touya being in a coma should be one such thing. We decided against him joining the LoV—for the time being—so we're trying to figure out what to do with him while also brainstorming for a potential replacement to fill his LoV slot.
Dragon Emperor0: If we decide to do that, anyway, too early for anything concrete. So give us feedback or ideas. Another thing, this is a Izuku x Katsumi story like Lion Sin, so expect a slightly different rendition of that dynamic, to an extent. We figured that since we did two Izumi x Katsuki stories, this would be an interesting choice to do something similar here.
ThermalsniperN7: Except Izuku is a huge pervert here, but he's based off of Meliodas this time around, so no surprise there, in retrospect. He also has a similar incident that happened in his past to add to his inspiration, too. That'll play a huge part in the way people view Izuku later.
Dragon Emperor0: Like we said before—each version of Izuku/Izumi has a connection to the Sins in some way, this is an example of that. Anyway, see you guys next time.
