Poor little child with hair black as coal, wet from the rain and dirty with mud accumulated during the days he had been alone, without a home.
It was raining and the child, after being bullied and terrorized by two thugs on the street, had taken refuge under a car bridge.
Dirty, wet, humid. All things not suitable for a child's environment. The blood, the wounds, his hands, things that the little boy would have liked to eliminate at that moment.
The more he looked at the reflection in the puddle of water that formed due to the rain, the more he understood why the old lady had left him on the street, telling him that a Hero would come to help him.
But he was sure that no Hero would come to help him. He was so sure...
"HAHAHA! Sorry dear citizens, but All Might really has to go!" The boy heard a voice in the distance, but didn't give it any importance.
He was too focused on his reflection in the water, so much, that he didn't notice the man approaching. Only when the man was close did he notice the reflection of another figure in the dirty puddle.
His eyes widened, he looked up and saw All Might himself. Seeing him so tremendously imposing in person compared to television, with the hero's hair making him more intimidating, the boy screamed in fright.
"Kid! What are you doing here? You're all wet and dirty..." All Might leaned down, watching the boy carefully.
"U-Uh, well..." Tenko didn't know what to say, his jaw dropping.
The two turned their heads in the same direction when they noticed the reporters approaching shouting All Might's name.
"Come on kid, I can't leave you here!" All Might quickly stood up and held out a hand to the boy to help him up.
Tenko was about to take his hand, but the memories of what he had done to his family every time he touched something with his hands made him hesitate. He didn't want to hurt a hero this time.
All Might looked worriedly at the child and, hearing the journalists getting even closer, decided to grab the young man's arm and start running, forcing the boy to remain in his arms.
Tenko, scared, put his arms around All Might's neck to avoid touching him with his hands.

Oh, little Shimura, the only one left of the family, was relieved that he was now somewhere dry and warm. He hadn't felt this feeling in almost two weeks. However, he still felt dirty and sticky, but at least the blood had disappeared thanks to the rain water, so the boy was still happy.
He heard All Might return from the balcony, carrying some superhero costumes in his arms, all wet from the rain that had begun to fall more intensely.
"HAHAH! My poor costumes..." Tenko smiled seeing the scene of a sad hero because his costumes were all wet, and this made the charismatic hero All Might smile too.
