Interview
Seeing as it was now entirely too dangerous to go outside for a press conference, Izuku and D.O.C. decided to have an interview.As such, Izuku and interviewer, Inata Byu, and her camra crew. All of whom had been background checked, so no risk of them trying to kill him.
The two of them were sitting on the couches that Izuku added to his office, with a coffee table between them.
"Thank you for your time Mr. Midoriya, we know your quite a busy...person." Inata was clearly weirded out by interviewing someone of Izuku's age but was being as professional as possible.
"Yes, my job has many, many benefits. But it is also, full time." Izuku said, putting on a forced smile. "So, not to be rude, but I would prefer to get to the questioning."
"Of course," Inata said. "So, Mr. Midoriya, how did you come to start taking care of O.P.C.'s? You have to admit, taking care of children at your age, is a...peculiar decision."
"Well, that information was actually classified for quite a bit of time," Izuku said. "However, after discussing it with some officials, we believe that we can safely share some information."
"Really?" Inata asked, looking interested. "Please, do tell."
"Alright, so I had been at my house when suddenly I heard someone knocking on my door." Izuku started the story. "I open it, and there is a very, very scared looking little girl, she was absolutely terrified, she said someone was chasing her and begged me not to let them get her. So naturally, I ushered her inside and closed the door. Of course, all that did was buy me a bit of time, before the villains broke into my house. Turns out, the villains she was getting chased by, were the Yakuza."
"The Yakuza?" Inata said, looking a bit surprised.
"Yeah, them. Fortunately, I was able to act quickly. I hid the girl under a pile of laundry, not the most sanitary way of handling things, but I figured maybe they wouldn't check there, and then I got my phone, set it to record, and hid it, before I pretended to be asleep, using headphones to make it seem plausible that slept through their break-in."
"That seems like a lot to think of in such little time." Inata pointed out. "Seems like your a quick thinker, wait...you recorded the Yakuza breaking into your house."
"That's right." Izuku nodded. "You might have heard about the story of the anonymous boy that took down the Yakuza...I was that boy."
"Really?" Inata's eyes widened a bit.
"Well, it's not like I took them down single-handedly," Izuku said quickly. "Sir Nighteye's agency had been investigating them for years, they just needed a bit more direct proof of wrongdoing, to get the ball going. I was pretty much the straw that broke the camel's back."
"Still impressive nonetheless," Inata said, it was hard for Izuku to tell if she was just being formal or if that was genuine praise. "And then after that, you and the young girl were moved into witness protection correct?"
"That's right. We stayed together for a while, and got attached to each other." Izuku said. "So when I got the option to take her in, I did so."
"And this girl was your first O.P.C.?" Inata asked, getting a nod from Izuku. "Can I get her name and quirk by any chance?"
"Well I can give you her name, however, I think I should keep her quirk private. She's a shy girl, so sharing too much information about her feels wrong." Izuku told her.
"That's fair." Inata agreed. "So her name?"
"It's Eri," Izuku answered.
"Eri...why was the Yakuza after her in the first place?" Inata asked.
