'All people are not created equal'.
This was the sad truth I learned at the young age of four.
For you see, a great and terrible mysterious disaster caused many to lose their lives that night.
My mother, Inko Midoriya, was one of those lost, and me and my father, Hisashi Midoriya, would have also lost our lives if not for All Might.
This quickly taught me my second important lesson: 'no one is truly all powerful'.
I am Izuku Midoriya, and this is how I lost everything when I was young, but then gained something new to protect, defend, and sacrifice anything for.So four years on from when All Might saved us, my father quit his job, and dragged me along his path to his new goal: 'to help anyone in need during disasters'.
I just went along with this, up and down the country, my father helping others, looking more and more worse each day, and although I worried about him, he always shut me down with his usual "it's not about us, it's about them, that's what being a true hero means".
This whole charade of not caring about his own health, having me point out victims in disaster zones continued.Until one day when it was nearing my eleventh birthday, after he saved someone, he took some time to catch his breath, which was pretty standard with his health in such bad shape, as I took a quick look at the disaster zone we were in, I looked back to realise I had wandered into an unfamiliar area, at first I panicked, as I grabbed my dark green messy hair, I looked down at the ground, seeing my green eyes stare back at me from the puddle below me, fear and panic stricken thoughts ran through my mind!
Until I stopped and looked up, my plain freckled face stunned, I could hear what sounded like a baby crying, I looked around to see if I could find it, as I got closer to the noise, I could distinguish that it was cries coming from what sounded like a baby girl.
I came to a building with some rubble in front but mostly untouched, which came as a surprise, and as I entered the building I saw why, the inside had been moved in such a way that it was a circular stone tunnel, with stone spikes impaling the corpses of what looked like some mobsters, a couple Pro Heroes, and some blood spatters scattered around the place!For a ten year old like me at the time, this horrific image, the reality that a Villain a Quirk that could do this was nearby, coupled with the knowledge that no one knew where I was, was enough to terrify!
I may have screamed, if not for the continuous baby crying.
I gritted my teeth, tightened my fists, and ran down the tunnel till I came to the end, where the collapsed building 'began' again.
Through the rubble I climbed, till I came to the source of the noise, a baby girl with pale blue-gray hair and red eyes, partially wrapped in a blanket on her lower half, leaving her arms free.She was laying on a partly broken door with a cracked marble plate that read: 'Eri's room'.
I picked Eri up and strangely enough, she began to settle down laying down on my left shoulder and closed her eyes, and just as I began wondering if she was even a year old, I heard creaking of wood above me!
That's when I heard voices!
It was the Villains responsible for this mess!
And worse yet, they were talking about how the girl's not here!
That's when I realised they were talking about Eri!
Without thinking, I carefully carried Eri out without making a sound, and carried her out by making my way down the stone tunnel and back out to the disaster zone.Afterwards I wandered around till I found my way back, I may not have realised it at the time, but my actions that day would have long reaching consequences that even I didn't realise, cause from that day forward, mine and Eri's futures were permanently entwined!
