Son Of The Shadow Monarch

Chapter 5

(Hello, everyone, and welcome back. Let's get started)

We start the following morning with Izuku waking up early. He got up and stretched and walked out front. No one was in the bar, even Cliff, who lived upstairs above the tavern. Izuku quietly walked out the front door and locked up as he left. The morning was chilly but woke Izuku up and Made him alert. He slowly walked toward Beacon. As he looked around, there were very few shops open. Most were bakeries just starting their day and making fresh goods. Izuku decided to stop and get something for everyone to apologize for leaving so abruptly yesterday and as a celebration for passing the test. After waiting for them to finish, he started going back toward Beacon.

(Timeskip)

As he approached the front gate of Beacon, he was surprised to see Olivia standing out front. She had a cup of something hot in her hands to drive away the morning chill. When she noticed him, her face lit up, and she started walking toward him with a smile. At first, Izuku was tense seeing her walking toward him, but when he saw her smile, he relaxed slightly, smiling at her back.

"Hello, Izuku. I hope you had a good night," Olivia said, stopping in front of him and looking into his eyes.

Izuku: "Hello, Olivia. It was okay. I went to my old workplace and talked to an old friend. I also must apologize for leaving so abruptly yesterday. I just had a lot on my mind afterward."

"It is more than okay, Izuku. We completely understand and appreciate you trusting us enough to tell us your secret." Olivia said, smiling up at Izuku.

Izuku: "thank you, Olivia. Could you please point me in the direction of where Eri is sleeping and where the kitchen is? I am sure she was unhappy with me leaving without telling her yesterday. So I figured I would make her favorite breakfast as an apology. I also grabbed some pastries from a local bakery. You can invite the others there and join yourself if you would like." This caught Olivia's attention. She had heard about his cooking and had tuned into the live streams showing his music and enjoyed them all.

Olivia: "well, I won't turn that down. I have heard all about your food from a friend. Follow me. I will take you where you can cook and gather the others for you."

Izuku nodded and followed behind the white-haired woman. As they arrived at the cafeteria, she left Izuku there to go and grab the others. Izuku got to work making pancakes for everyone. He had some of his shadow soldiers helping him. As he was working, he heard footsteps approaching. He did not recognize them and quickly unsummoned his soldiers and turned around to see who it was. As he did so, two people walked into the kitchen one was a portly older man with white hair and a white mustache. The other was a woman whose hair was a slightly darker green than Izuku's own. The two were in a heated argument, with the older man struggling to keep up with the woman, who seemed to be floating with how fast she was going. They both stopped and stared at the young man standing in the kitchen. The woman was the first to speak.

???: "Who are you, and how did you get in here?" She asked, zooming over to stand in front of Izuku, looking down at him as she was slightly taller than him. She adjusted her glasses and stared at Izuku, waiting for an answer.

???: "calm down, Betty. I am sure there is a reasonable explanation. Care to explain, young man?" He asked with a kind smile towards the young man.

"Of course, ma'am and sir. I was making breakfast for Ms. Ozpin and a group of others. If you would like to join, I would be happy to make some for you." Izuku said, turning back towards the food to continue finishing up. "If not, I have made some coffee over there. Take some if you would like." He gestured over to a freshly brewed pot of coffee. This caught Betty's attention immediately, and she zoomed over with a cup in her hand, seemingly appearing out of nowhere. As soon as she took a sip, her eyes widened. She then chugged the rest of the cup and filled a second one.
