Short Chapter

-------------------------

It was a night like any other for Shota Aizawa, a teacher at UA and an underground hero, as he prowled the streets in his hero costume. His senses were on high alert, searching for any signs of trouble.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of movement from the corner of his eye. He whipped around, ready to spring into action, only to find two infants, wrapped in nothing but a few torn towels, lying abandoned on the cold, hard concrete.

A note was pinned to the collar of each child's shirt, bearing their names: Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugou.

Something about the situation tugged at Aizawa's heartstrings, and he couldn't bring himself to leave them there. He scooped up the babies, making sure to keep them warm and close, and hurried back to his apartment.

Once there, he tended to their wounds and fed them, taking care of them as if they were his own.

As the weeks turned into months and the months into years, Aizawa became the father figure the two children so desperately needed. He taught them about heroics and the importance of working hard to achieve their dreams. Izuku, with his green curly hair, emerald colored eyes, and a face full of freckles, had a natural affinity for empathy and healing, while Katsuki, with his spiky blond hair, ruby colored eyes, and default frowny face, was born with a fiery temperament and immense strength.

Aizawa loved them both unconditionally, and they returned that love tenfold.

Unfortunately, fate had cruel intentions for the trio.

Despite their best efforts to stay healthy, Izuku and Katsuki fell victim to a deadly illness when they were just six years old. Aizawa did everything he could to save them, but it was no use.

The two boys passed away in his arms, their small bodies finally at peace.

The loss was devastating for Aizawa. He had never experienced such pain before, and every night, as he laid down to sleep, he could feel the weight of their absence pressing down on him. He would cry himself to sleep, wishing for just one more moment with his precious boys.

As the years went by, Aizawa threw himself into his work as a teacher and a hero, trying to keep himself busy and distracted from the ache in his heart.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could never forget Izuku's bright green curls or Katsuki's fierce determination. Their faces were etched into his memory, and their laughter echoed in his dreams. Aizawa knew that he would carry their love with him for the rest of his life, and he took comfort in the knowledge that they had found happiness and peace in their short time with him.

The years passed, and Aizawa continued to teach at UA, guiding a new generation of heroes. He never remarried or had more children, choosing instead to focus on honoring the memory of Izuku and Katsuki. He would often tell his students about the two boys who had touched his life so profoundly, inspiring them with tales of their courage, determination, and unwavering love.

One day, a mysterious package arrived at Aizawa's doorstep. Inside was a battered old journal, its leather binding worn and frayed from years of use. Curious, he opened it up to find that it was filled with meticulous writing in two distinctly different handwriting styles.

As he began to read, he realized with a start that the journal was actually a story written by Izuku and Katsuki during their time together.

The story, titled "The Adventures of Greeny and Spiky," chronicled their lives as they grew up under Aizawa's care. It described their mischievous antics, their training to become heroes, and the deep bond that grew between them. The story was filled with vivid detail, painting a picture of a world where Izuku's empathy and healing abilities were put to the test, while Katsuki's strength and determination helped them overcome countless obstacles.

Throughout the journal, Izuku and Katsuki interspersed their narrative with sketches and doodles, adding a personal touch that made the story feel all the more real. The characters they created were flawed and complex, reflecting the unique perspectives of the two boys.

As Aizawa read on, he found himself laughing and crying, relieving memories he thought he had long forgotten.

The journal also contained notes from Aizawa himself, offering his thoughts and insights on the boys' progress and personal growth. These notes revealed the depth of Aizawa's love and understanding for his children, and served as a testament to the bond they had shared.

As Aizawa continued to read, he found a special envelope tucked into the back of the journal.

Inside was a letter from Izuku and Katsuki, written just before they had passed away.

In the letter, they expressed their eternal gratitude to Aizawa for being their father and for showing them what it meant to be a true hero. They told him that they would always be with him, watching over him and guiding him from beyond the grave.

They also asked Aizawa to share their story with the world, hoping that it would inspire others to find the courage and determination they had shown in the face of adversity. They wanted their lives to serve as a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope and that love can triumph over everything.

Aizawa was stunned by the revelation, but he knew that he had to honor their wishes. He spent the next several years working tirelessly to publish their story, "The Adventures of Greeny and Spiky," making sure that every detail was perfect and that their message would resonate with readers around the world.

The book was an instant success, becoming a bestseller and earning Aizawa critical acclaim for his efforts in bringing their story to life.

Their story touched the hearts of millions, inspiring a new generation of heroes who were willing to face their fears and fight for what was right. Izuku and Katsuki's legacy lived on, not just through Aizawa and the other students they had touched, but through the countless lives they had changed for the better. Their message of hope and determination in the face of adversity resonated with people from all walks of life, proving that even in the darkest of times, there is always light to be found.
