It was an interesting thought, the thought that Hisashi Midoriya has a son, in fact that he has a family out there and Hana Midoriya had no clue of it. Though it seemed unlikely it was the truth, it was just that, the unseen reality of the nephew of Genshiro Fujiwara, one Akihiko. He had his eyes on his cell phone when he entered the greenhouse connected to a large mansion near a sleepy town in Hokkaido. He was there to inform his current 'employer', of him visiting the woman he was seeing and his uncle down south using lonely nights and a family BBQ as cover for what he was after, a lot of unfinished business. "Hello Lady Hana? Are you here?" The question reverberated in the enclosed space.
An answer came from near the back of the greenhouse, Hana's melodic voice was like a fine honey to his ears as he followed it to her. "Aki? Is that you, dear?" Hana spoke softly, her voice carrying weight despite the almost light tone in it.
"Yeah, it's me... I just wanted to let you know that I am headed down south to visit Kaina and my uncle." The man spoke turning the corner to some lilies coming face to face with the woman that he worked for, the lord of the nine beast Hana Midoriya, not that she is known by that name outside of the government and her close circles.
"Is that so?" She spoke with a hint of something close to sadness in her tone. It was not the first time he had gone down to Musutafu to visit his fiancée, but the first time since both Hisashi and Mitsuki disappeared that she had not accompanied him on his trips. "I wish that I could come with you but I understand that you two need your time." The wavering tone of the woman who appeared to be a decade or more his junior's voice came out softly. After Hisashi left and word of his death came years later the woman started treating him like her own son, and after the pair lost touch with Mitsuki soon after, Hana completely broke down.
Akihiko could not look at the sight, she was hugging one of the plants tightly pausing her work. He knew that he had promised his uncle that he wouldn't, but that could now only apply to the information that he had shown Genshiro and what Kaina got in her investigation. "There's that, and umm actually... There was something I wanted to look into when I was down south that you might find interesting." He could see the woman's fox-like silver ears perk up at the declaration.
"Is that so?" Hana questioned, putting down her potted lily and straightening the navy blue apron she had on, looking at him through curious brown eyes.
"Yes... Umm... It's better if I show you." Akihiko said, producing his cell phone before playing with it. He watched as Hana's went off and she looked at him first, confused, before retrieving hers.
It did not take long for her eyes to grow wide and misty, for the first time in eight years a gentle smile that usually graced her tough exterior reserved for her children had returned. Akihiko did not know if this was the right decision but at least for the moment, it was safe to say that he was not going to regret it. "What's his name?" Hana asked, eyes glued to the phone and the curl of her lips never leaving.
More than happy to respond, Akihiko did so. "It's Izuku... Izuku Midoriya."
"Izuku huh? Izu... Zuku... No Zuzu."
"I don't know much yet Lady Hana so until I can get more information on them I need you to temper your expectations. Hisashi and Mitty didn't tell you about him for a reason... So until I can find out the reason why, I need you to not get too excited." Akihiko said, getting Hana's attention.
Her smile curved downwards, she knew all too well that when her son left it was not on the best of terms, and when she pushed for him to come back after several years both He and Mitsuki disappeared entirely. "Are you forbidding me from asking about my grandson, Aki?"
Akihiko was quick to wave his hands in front of his face in denial. "It's not that, ma'am. I just want to make sure that we have his best interest in mind before we proceed. I know you can't wait, I can see it in your eyes." As he said that the gold flakes swimming in her irises were bouncing around in her pools of brown. "He might not understand everything that we do... We need him to at least do that if we are going to move forward."
Hana grumbled, staring a hole in her phone. She had no idea what Hisashi or Mitsuki for that matter told that boy. She could not help but agree with Akihiko. 'No matter what, he should know that he is loved and will be protected.' She thought nodding her head before looking Akihiko in the eye. "What about Mitty?" Hana asked with a dangerous glint in her eye.
The man looked into Hana's eyes knowing her meaning from her look, being around her since he was a little boy. "That can get messy, you know how Mitty can get."
Hana however was not having any excuses at the moment, digging in the chest pocket of her apron. "I don't care." She paused to pull out a pair of car keys. "If it means seeing Zuzu as soon as possible drag her here kicking and screaming if you have to." She finished tossing him the keys.
"Are you sure about this? this is Mori-san's territory that we are talking about?" Akihiko spoke, examining the keys with great interest.
"My daughter, my grandson, my rules." Hana narrowed her eyes, keeping them on Akihiko.
Akihiko sighed, this was like giving him a blank check and he did not know what to do with it. He understood what she meant by that and it was giving him the worst feeling. From what he had implied with what he sent her at least Hisashi's missus was not going to get involved with all of this, at least not for a while. That was one thing that he could hang his head high about for now at least. "After I see Uncle Gen I will take care of it. And I will see you next week."
"You all will." There was malice in Hana's tone as she 'corrected' him.
"Right..." He paused playing with her keys, a cold sweat forming. "I will be back with Kaina and Mitty." He corrected himself.
"Good."
(...)
"You could not help yourself, could you Aki?"
"Okay, in my defense I kind of kept everything else under wraps."
"How is that, Aki? I am pretty sure that Hana Midoriya just hired a former hero and current villain and her dumbass fiancé to find and kidnap her adult daughter."
"Not my best moment, but on the bright side good food, you get to see your senpai again, and you get to meet a future hero in Lady Hana's grandson. I bet he is going to be all wide-eyed with a lot of questions for you." Akihiko could not help but chuckle talking to Kaina in an SUV of foreign make that Hana had lent to him for his trip, a flip phone close to his ear. He was imagining his wife-to-be awkwardly answering the boy's questions both him and Kaina knowing the truth about her early retirement.
"I hate you."
"Well… I love you..." He paused to insert the key into the ignition of the SUV before hearing a reply.
"I wonder about that, sometimes I think that you should confess to Lady Hana and save us both some trouble."
"You wound me, young miss..." He said messing with the GPS on the screen of the car radio. "It's not my fault I know around a maiden's heart."
"Mmhmm."
"You are just jealous because you know it's true."
"Oh, dear lord."
"Well, anyway I will see you later tonight?"
"If I have time."
Akihiko seemed to feign his total shock as he put the SUV in gear. The serious tone of the woman he loved caused him to nearly take back his words. "I am seeing you tonight, right?" He tried to confirm with a faux-worried tone.
"Bring food then we will talk."
"Yes, milady!"
"Don't make me regret it..."
Akihiko laughed before the pair said their goodbyes to each other. After hanging up he folded the flip phone before dropping it in a cup of water in a cup holder on the center console, looking at his smartphone with a picture of a four-year-old Izuku with a face of dismay as he was held up by Mitsuki Bakugo in a Santa hat under a mistletoe making a kissy face at him. Akihiko gave the picture a smile pulling out of the Mansion's driveway, if you can call the winding road that, before asking Hisashi to forgive him for what might happen in the coming two weeks, and to Mitsuki's family at that knowing what Hana Midoriya was like and what she might do once she knew the full truth. He knew that his uncle was preparing for something big involving the heroes, but if Hana joined him as well there would be no shortage of hero, civilian, or villain support that the two would have in the coming months. There were rules to all of this, unspoken laws, and you can say that the government broke them. The people who should care about the treatment of Izuku Midoriya were soon going to regret neglecting their duties and basically declaring war on the Midoriya and now Fujiwara clans.
A second age of the Yakuza seemed all too real, a possibility that was now inevitable, and Akihiko did not know how to feel about it. You could say that since Mount Lady and him had blown the horn causing the two most dangerous people in Japan to act, they were this new age's harbingers. Akihiko for his part had a nervous excitement about it, but as soon as she was going to find out Yu Takeyama was in the middle of this storm and she might live to regret it.
A/N: So read the MHA ending... and what was that. Nothing resolved whatsoever, I hate what canon Izuku and what he became so I can say this with my chest. What was the point of any of that?
