Chaos... That was the only word to describe the situation unveiling. The entire house was messed up. The furniture was broken. The utensils were lying scattered on the ground. A bunch of random objects were being flung in the air. How did this happen. Ah, yes. It was all Izuku's fault.

Now, the thing is... Izuku had just recently acquired a human form. After living 4 years as a slime, there was no way Izuku would be used to live like a human. So he started learning the ways of a human. The first thing he did was learn how to walk. Now... walking isn't learnt in a single day. There is a reason why babies start by crawling. And for Izuku, walking was a especially harder since he didn't have a skeletal system to support him. After days of practicing, he could walk a couple of steps without support.

Izuku had a habit of going out every morning in order to learn walking. He normally took Ranga with him as he couldn't go alone. But now, since he had two humans with him, he believed that taking one of them with him would be more fruitful. So he decided to go with Benimaru. This made the other Oni and the Wolf feel a twinge of jealousy. And this started a full on war between the three. They started fighting with their fists. They threw each other around the house, breaking the furniture and other things in the process.

This wasn't a problem; Izuku could fix everything with his quirk. But Izuku found it irritating that the two grown up men were fighting with a wolf because of the dumbest of reason. Izuku too a deep breath and then yelled with all his might.

"ENOUGH ALREADY!"

The three servants paused in their tracks and stared at their master. Izuku took a few heavy steps towards the trio.

"Ranga. Your reasons for starting this fight were plain stupid. Same goes for you, Souei." Izuku stared at Benimaru straight in the eyes.

"Benimaru. I didn't expect you to be infuriated by such childish provocations. I am extremely disappointed in the three of you. I will be going outside alone. By the time I come back, I expect this mess to be cleaned and your actions to be reflected."

Izuku walked towards the front door and then turned around.

"We are living under the same roof, so it is best that the three of you get along," he said before leaving the house and slamming the door behind him. The servants stared at the door in silence, processing what had just happened. Meanwhile Izuku, who had just stormed outside was regretting his decision.

"Oh well. They asked for it," he thought as he walked through the hallway. He had a bigger problem at hand. The elevators were out of service, so he had to climb the stairs all the way down from the third floor. He sighed.

"This is going to be a long day."

It took Izuku an hour to climb down the entire flight of stairs. Of course, it would have been easier had he turned into a slime, but he liked to challenge himself every once in a while. He finally headed to the children's park. It was Monday, so the park was deserted. This meant that Izuku had the park all for himself. Izuku paused in his tracks. Normally it wasn't this lonely when he strolled in the park. Perhaps that was because Ranga was there to talk with him while he walked. Izuku decided to have a change of pace. He walked down the empty streets.

He closed his eyes and listened to the blowing wind. He recalled that his mother had mentioned it was going to rain soon. It had been a while since he had last seen rain with his own two eyes. He remembered splashing in the puddles with his mother back then...

While he was busy getting lost in his train of thought, Izuku had ventured off track and entered an unknown pathway. Izuku only realized that he had gone the wrong path only after he had tripped on his own two feet. Izuku looked around and then panicked at the current predicament.
