"I can't leave you behind! I just cant!..."

"...You have to... please my love... just kiss me one last time."

The voices of a man and a woman sounded throughout a small living room, their voices dramatic in nature while their image was plastered onto a bright screen boxed in by the frame of a TV. The room was shadowed in darkness almost pitch black if not for the colors resonating from the device. If the voices were not there only a deafening silence would have replaced them.

The screen not only illuminated the walls, but also the furniture that was strewn about organized purely for the sake of comfort. A lone chair dark brown lay still, in front of it, was a light brown coffee table with an assortment of cups including a baby bottle sitting on top. that wasn't all however as a single long couch came into view two large shadows embracing each other.

As the scene on the screen progressed the shadows spoke one giggling slightly though their movements were extremely careful. "I didn't expect it to be this bad."

"Well I've seen some bad things but this is downright horrible." a deep chuckle erupted from the taller shadow before their identities were revealed the both of them turning their heads to look at one another. Izuku laughed quietly as his green and white hair swayed slightly, his heterochromia eyes still on full display. His stare was directed to Mei the woman's giggles like Izuku's laugh was quiet.

Both looked different, where there was a boyish innocence in Izuku there was now a mature defined look, still young in appearance but older in demeanor. Mei too had some changes, her pink hair was no longer tied within the smooth dreadlocks instead they flowed down smoothly, the texture like silk. Her tomboyish look was now modified with a charming allure of a beautiful woman. Their attire was simple, Izuku in a white shirt his athletic body showing through the fabric while Mei wore her staple black tanktop. There were however two additional things that raised a lot of questions.

Snoring on Izuku's left leg was Eri the young girl now well within her 11th year of life, her body covered by an intricately designed pink blanket. On Mei a small body was clutched in her embrace, a small baby boy slept on the girl's collar bone just above her cleavage, the baby clothed in a green onesie, hair-like Izuku's however the white patch was a lightly tinted pink.

Their laughter soon died out as they turned back to the screen Mei set her head on Izuku's shoulder kissing the base of his neck slightly. Izuku smiled as he set his head on top of Mei's tenderly his eyes looking at his son. Mei sensing his stare adjusted the young boy, "Don't worry Izuku, Hikari can sleep through anything."

"Heh, yeah reminds me of you."

"Im not that bad." Mei pouted a little before her small smile returned.

Izuku looking back to the screen sighed his left hand reaching down to Eri, the marks still darkly imprinted on his skin. Stroking the girl's long white hair Izuku felt the girl snuggle up even more. "Im... glad."

"Hmm?"

"Im glad I came back to you both, I thought leaving would protect you but I should have stayed."

"Izuku that was years ago, I don't blame you and Eri doesn't either what matters is that you came home to us." Mei with her free hand interlocked her left fingers with Izuku's right hand her wedding ring showing with a diamond peeking out.
