Unlikely Heroes

The heroic son of a villain

They got a day off after the attack at the U.S.J, Midoriya-san had gone into a panic when she heard Pyro had been there. More concerningly, was the fact Izuku had shut himself in his room. Not even Hitoshi could get him to open the door.

"He's probably worried about Aizawa-Oji-san... Yamada-Oji-san heard from some of his classmates that he had called Aizawa-Oji-san Dad during the attack." Hitoshi frowned. Midoriya-san smiled weakly at that. Midnight sat listening, she was there to keep an eye on the Midoriya family, but mostly because Aizawa had threatened to kill anyone if he finds Izuku doesn't have any protection. So, she was going to humor his request, though, she had not expected Izuku to lock himself away.

"He is very father-like to you boys." She said quietly.

"But, now his class knows about the relationship between him and Pyro, it's all over the news...so it could be possible that he may get some grief for it." Midnight added, Hitoshi frowned, he hadn't thought about that.

~~~~~~

The next day proved Midnight right, Izuku did earn some glares from people and students alike. Hitoshi watched as his friend went into himself. His eyes shadowed by his hair, his grip on his bag tighter than needed.  Hitoshi didn't want to eave his friend but had too. He watched as Uraraka and Iida approached Izuku and greeted him happily. Izuku responded little to them, Hitoshi sighed.  He wasn't sure today was going to be a good day.

~~~~~~

Izuu sat quietly in his seat, he knew people were glancing towards him nervous, which just made him feel terrible.

"Good morning, Midoriya-kun." Yaoyorozu came over to him, shocking the few members of class there. Todoroki had just entered he went straight to his seat, though he was listening carefully.

"Morning..." Izuku mumbled in reply, he wasn't sure how this was going to end.

"I never got to tell you how helpful it was to have you at the U.S.J." Yaoyorozu smiled kindly, he looked up at her. "You helped give us the upper hand, thank you." Izuku nodded, looking down once more.

"It was nothing." He replied. That's how he felt, what he had done wasn't anything special, it brought them more time if anything.

"That's not true, kero," Asui said. "You made a plan to get us from the shipwreck zone without any injuries to us."

"But he's the son of  a villain!" Mineta burst out. Izuku bowed his head in shame. He didn't hear or see Asui hit Mineta on the head. But, no matter what anyone said net, Izuku wouldn't respond. He just stared at his clenched fists, tears bubbling in the corners of his vision. He was just the son of a villain, it didn't matter what he did, that would also be brought up. What was the point of this?

~~~~~~

Aizawa walked down the corridor with Yamada, who was explaining everything that he missed.

"What?" Aizawa stopped and looked at his friend.

"Well, according to the classmates that were around him, he called yo dad and ushed in to protect you. Let's face it Shouta, we were all expecting it to happen at some point." Yamada grinned. "You are his adopted dad now." Aizawa was completely unsure how to act, Izuku had called him dad? That wasn't his imagination? He could help but feel proud and happy. "Aw, you should see your smile." Yamada gushed, Aizawa glared at him, Yamada just laughed. "come on Aizawa, admit it, you happy."

"I am." Was his short reply, Yamada almost wished he had been recording their conversation. How many teachers would believe him without proof.

"Oh, just to warn you, Izuku may be down in class. Everyone found out Pyro is his dad, he may be having a hard time because of it." Yamada told him.

"I'll make sure nothing gets out of hand." Aizawa nodded, he headed towards the class, leaving Yamada behind.

"You go and defend your son!" Yamada called after him, Aizawa shook his head slightly. Though, he had not expected him to have to take Yamada's joke seriously. But when he walked into the class to find Bakugo towering over Izuku, his quirk exploding, he felt a protective feeling bubble up inside him.

"Bakugo!" He said loudly. The class turned to him, except Izuku, who didn't seem to be moving. "Don't use your quirk in class. This is the hero course, you need to start taking that seriously. I will have no trouble expelling you for endangering more students." He threatened. Bakugo scoffed but sat back down.

"Aizawa-sensei, are you sure you should be in?" Asui questioned, referring to the fact he was completely wrapped up in bandages.

"I'm Alive, meaning I still have a job to do," Aizawa told them. He got the lesson underway, explaining the upcoming sports festival. Though, he was still concerned about Izuku, who hadn't moved from his bowed head position since he had entered. Was it because he was embarrassed, or because his classmates were giving him grief over his father? He couldn't be too sure, but he knew he didn't know how to help him.

~~~~~~

No one caused any issues in Aizawa's lesson, but when it came to English with Yamada, it took a turn. Bakugo and Mineta both brought up Izuku's father, Yamada tried to get them to stop, but the just got louder, before Yamada could even use his quirk, Izuku had gotten up and quickly fled the room, Yamada didn't even have a chance to call him back when Todoroki quickly followed him.

~~~~~~~

Izuku just wanted to run, run away from everything. But how could he run away from everything? It would just follow him around, he would never be able to escape it. He was doomed to face these issues from this day on... what was the point...

"Midoriya!" Izuku heard his name being shouted, he found himself stopping. Todoroki... so, he had been followed.
