Michi glared at Shoto standing before her, with Izuku by her side.

They found themselves at different sides in one of the entrances to the Sports Arena, aiming to join their friends for a meal.

However, Shoto halted their plans.

He insisted on talking to them, so here they were.

"So... What did you want to talk about?", broke Izuku the silence between them.

There was no answer from the white-red-haired teen, just a cold look.

"Listen I don't know what your problem is.", began Michi. "But if you don't hurry there will be no food left in the cafeteria and Izuku and I want to eat. So what is it that you want, Todoroki."

"I was overpowered. So much so that I broke my pledge.", said Shoto.

Izuku and Michi thought the same. Was Shoto talking about his left side, the fireside, he never uses?

The boy with the scar on his face stared at his left hand.

"Iida, Kaminari, Yaoyorozu, Uraraka. None of them felt it. At that last instant, I was the only one who was overpowered. Only me, who had experienced All Might's full power up close."

"Don't beat around the bush, say what you have to say, Todoroki.", states Michi, crossing her arms in annoyance.

Izuku put a hand on her shoulder to calm her down.

"It means I felt something similar coming from you. Midoriya, are you All Might's secret love child or something?"

Well, this was unexpected.

Michi couldn't help herself and started to laugh, while Izuku just stared wide-eyed at Shoto.

"Oh my god this was a good joke.", giggled Michi. "Todoroki I can tell you for sure, Izuku is not All Might secret love child...pfff!"

"Michi-Kun.", whined Izuku.

This made Michi stop waving her hands around in excuse.

"Not that you couldn't be it Izu-Chan! All Might would be a better dad to you than your old man!"

"Your little lover quarrel might be amusing for anybody else, but I'm serious.", deadpanned Shoto.

The girl shrugged her shoulder, as the green-haired boy turned so red that he made a pepperoni competition.

Izuku tried to say how things really were between Michi and him, but Shoto continued: "There's a connection between you two that you can't talk about, right? Even Massaro is part of this secret or she wouldn't have laughed so loud."

Both Michi and Izuke grinning sheepishly.

Well, he got them.

"Endeavor's my old man.", told Shoto. "I'm sure you guys know that he's been stuck as the number two hero for forever. If you, Midoriya, have something from the number one hero, then I have even more reason to beat you. The same goes for you Massaro, you may be not connected to All Might like Midoriya, but your Quirk is unique and powerful. You showed again and again how strong you are. You could become the number one, one day, without problems, so I have to beat you too."

"Why is this so important to you?", wondered Michi.

"My old man has a strong desire to rise in the world. As a hero, he won a name for himself with crushing force. Because of that, the living legend, All Might, is a great eyesore to him. Since he couldn't surpass All Might, he moved on to his next plan."

"What are you talking about, Todoroki...?", asked Izuku. "What are you trying to tell us?"

"You've heard of Quirk marriages, right?"
