It took seconds for Aizawa and Yamada to reach Hitoshi standing at the doorway to the Omega room, screaming and swinging his fists at the caretaker.
"WHERE IS HE! WHERE IS IZUKU!" Hitoshi wailed.
The large woman stared down at him, sighed, reached into her pocket and suddenly Hitoshi jerked back, grabbing at his collar as his body jerked like he was getting shocked.
Aizawa shot forward, catching the child before he could hit the floor as Yamada, snarling and pupils blown wide, slammed the woman into the doorframe. Aizawa didn't say anything at first as he held Hitoshi close, soothing the coughing, shaking boy.
"What is going on!" This time a smaller woman came hurrying from the Omega room.
"Hurt pup," Yamada snarled darkly.
"Hizashi," Aizawa snapped, putting some weight into his voice. "Pup needs you."
Yamada released the woman he had pinned as he began to chirp and purr, moving to Hitoshi's side as the kid lay in Aizawa's arms coughing and crying out for Izuku. Yamada pulled him close, sitting on the floor with the young boy in his arms. Aizawa slowly stood, letting his mate handle the poor boy.
"Where is Izuku?" Aizawa demanded, letting his alpha roar to the surface. "And what the fuck did you do to the pup?"
The larger woman huffed. "The brat knows he can't use his quirk on us and he was trying to. I just did a correction."
Aizawa growled lowly. "You what?"
The smaller woman flinched. "Sir, Hitoshi's quirk is brainwash. He has been known to use it to get his way. He has not control, so the collar delivers a mild shock to correct his behavior. I am sorry he was left in the room. Normally those who are unadoptable are moved to a separate room when perspective parents visit."
Aizawa felt his eye twitch at the idea of a mild shock. "Unadoptable?"
The smaller woman nodded, her smile and scent trying to sooth the angry emotions. "Yes. Hitoshi's quirk is unsafe for the general population. We are giving him room and board until he is old enough to be moved to the group home for training in a job that will be safe for him to be in. Thus he is marked as unadoptable. I'm afraid Izuku is as well. That's why he's not here."
Aizawa felt that roar of protectiveness surge with his alpha as if he had sired the two boys himself. He shifted so he physically blocked Yamada and Hitoshi from the women.
"Why is Izuku unadoptable?" Aizawa growled.
The women hesitated, but the larger one took over this time.
"That brat can't talk," she grunted. "And he's quirkless. Even if he could be pupped, it would be pointless for his future mate."
Aizawa heard Yamada growl and he smirked as his mate snarled, "Explain. Now."
The two women tensed. "At the child's last check up, the doctor determined that not only is he an infertile omega, but he will never develop a quirk. It is common knowledge that a quirkless omega male will result in quirkless children. He is going to be handled so he isn't a burden to society."
Behind him, Hitoshi wailed as if someone was killing him. Aizawa frowned as he turned and joined Yamada in holding the boy.
"Shhh, pup," Yamada cooed. "It's okay."
"No!" Hitoshi sobbed. "They're gonna put him down!"
The two men froze at the wail. Aizawa felt the chill spread down his spine as Yamada met his eyes. Oh this place was fucked now.
"Shou..." Yamada growled.
"I've got it," Aizawa promised. "Tend to your pup, love."
Yamada pulled Hitoshi closer, removing any scent patch he had and pressing the distraught child's nose to his neck so he could practically bath him in soothing pheromones. Aizawa stood slowly, pulling out his hero license. He shoved it towards the women who seemed to tense as he turned dark eyes towards them.
"You will bring Izuku to us NOW!" he ordered. "Or I assure you I will have this place wrapped up in so much red tape you will never see another paycheck! You have three minutes."
The woman jumped and took off, shutting the door to keep the curious omega children inside the room. Aizawa turned and dropped into a crouch across from his mate and their first new pup who had calmed down to sniffles.
"Hey, kiddo," Aizawa said as he caught the boy's attention. "I need you to explain everything as best as you can, okay? It's really important in us being able to protect Izuku. What do you mean by 'put down'?"
Hitoshi sniffled, curled into Yamada's arms. "When we got brought here last year...there were four in our group," the boy whispered. "Takashi, Kikyo, Izuku, and me. Takashi was a beta, Kikyo and Izuku omegas, and I'm an alpha. When they found out Kikyo's quirk, they determined she was a bad omega."
"What was her quirk, pup?" Yamada cooed.
"She could make cotton candy from her hands," Hitoshi blinked up at him. "That big lady...she said no one would want their kid to have such a useless quirk and...and they found out she couldn't have babies."
"Like Izuku?" Aizawa asked.
Hitoshi nodded. "But they...they must've just found out about Izuku...cause...cause he might not be here if they had known."
"Keep going, baby," Yamada smiled. "You're doing so well."
Hitoshi rubbed tears off his face. "She and us were playing when they came to get her. They told her that the doctor wanted to see her. Takashi didn't like that and we followed, worried that she was sick or something. The doctor...gave her a shot and she went to sleep. Takashi got us out of there before they noticed us...but I saw them put her in a box and carry it out of the door."
Yamada resisted the urge to growl. They heard the door open and Aizawa glanced over his shoulder. The shorter woman was there.
"It's...it's going to take a moment. It seems Izuku got-" she started.
"Two minutes left," Aizawa snarled. He was satisfied when she squeaked and disappeared again. "Thank you for telling us. We'll make sure to ask about Takashi too, okay?"
Hitoshi shook his head. "You can't. Takashi got sold off to the factory cause he tried to call the police. He managed to convince them that Izuku and I didn't know anything. I...used my quirk to help make them believe."
"I'll find out about Takashi," Aizawa promised, gently putting his hand on the kid's head. Hitoshi nodded, just laying between them. Silence stretched until Aizawa started to stand, the timer in his mind letting him know their time was up. Just as he reached for the door, it was flung open.
The smaller woman was there, a short boy standing in front of her. Aizawa took in the child and swallowed his urge to lash out at the omega woman.
