Izuki

"Grandma! Grandpa! Guess what my quirk finally came!" I yelled running towards the house.

I got to the entryway of the house when I paused. I covered my nose as I fanned away the smoke.

"Wha-"

My eyes widened and I rushed inside the house. As I ran past a hall I saw green. I stopped noticing Izuku and ran over to him.

"Izuku what's going on! Are you ok!"

I shook him but got no response. It was like he was frozen with zero emotion on his face. That's when I heard it, their screams.

I slowly turned around to see our grandparents trapped inside the room. The fire was everywhere and it was surrounding them.

"Izuku we have to help them! Why won't you say anything?! Izuku please help me!" I yelled panicked.

Still getting no response I tried to enter on my own. At that moment Izuku grabbed me preventing me from doing so.

"Izuku let go! I need to help them!" I pleaded.

Izuku ignored me and pulled me further away from the door. No matter how much I struggled I couldn't get free. I could only watch in horror as our grandparents burned to death.

Part of the room caved in and Izuku quickly picked me up and ran out of the house. I kicked and screamed for him to put me down but he wouldn't listen.

"Why didn't you try to save them? Why didn't you do anything?" I cried.

"Wasn't you, " was all Izuku said.

No One

Izuki shot up from the bed breathing heavily. He gripped the front of his shirt calming himself.

Why was I remembering this now?

Izuki looked to his side to see Izuku looking at him worried.

"I'm sorry Izu, did I wake you?" Izuki smiled at him.

Izuku shook his head, "morning"

Izuki glanced at the clock to see it was 10 in the morning. He sighed and both boys got up. After getting cleaned and dressed they ate the breakfast Nezu brought them.

He had some things to do and asked them to accompany him so they don't get bored. His first stop was the hero commission office where the President was waiting.

"Ah boys this is the commissions President Hidae Tachibana." Nezu informed earning a nod in response.

"Hello again Nezu, who are these young men?" The older male asked.

"These are the young boys I've taken under my care. Their Izuki and Izuku Midoriya, " Nezu introduced.

"It's nice to meet you, " Izuki said as Izuku stood behind him.

"Midoriya? As in Hisashi Midoriya?" Tachibana mumbled aloud.

Both boy's expressions darkened and the man felt a chill run down his spine. At the mention of their father the aura around the boys turned deadly.
