Almost a full week has passed since Inko has seen any of Izuku's personalities. When she awoke from Sloth's dungeon, she woke up to Izuku on his knees next to her with a concerned look on his face. She shed her drowsiness and tackled him with a hug and entombed him with her love. Izuku gave her his famous laugh that made her heart levitate, and they both continued life as like nothing was wrong.

Ever since then, not one of Izuku's personalities came out. He was just Izuku and Inko loved it.

But happiness doesn't last for the Midoriyas.

Inko woke up early on the day of Izuku's birthday and made a big breakfast spread. All of his favorites- pancakes, sausages, bacon, hashbrowns, eggs, toast, waffles, crepes, and all kinds of sugary goodness a kid could only dream of. Inko hummed as she cooked because it was Izuku's Big Day and he was going to have so much fun. He was going to eat his birthday breakfast and then they were going to head to the park for a playdate with the Bakugos- until he tired himself out. Izuku would enjoy it immensely because he hasn't been able to see Katsuki since he got his quirks. Inko feared they would pop up and hurt the little boy unintentionally.

Hurried steps made Inko jump but she smiled knowing that it was Izuku. She put down her cooking utensil, washed her hands, and then met Izuku in the doorway.

But her smile left her face.

Izuku had a blank face and had his hands folded behind his back. He gave the spread of food one glance before he scoffed. Catching eyes with Inko, he took his hand out from behind his back and waved. As he waved, fire ignited on his fingertips and spread to his wrist. Streaks of blue would highlight his hand and make the air around him vibrate with fear.

Greed's back.

"Hello Inko" Greed silenced the flames dance on his hands and walked over to the table to sit down. He gestured towards the chair on the other side and the chair smoothly moved backwards. Greed smiled at the silent submission the chair gave him and clasped his hands together. "Would you have a seat please? I have something urgent to speak to you about"

Inko stared at him like he grew an extra head. "I thought you had a fire quirk"

Greed deflated and sighed. "My quirk will not be as miniscule as that. My quirk is infinite. Now please sit" He gestured towards the chair and Inko made no move towards the chair. Greed sighed loudly and snapped twice. The chair trembled violently as an answer and Inko made a slow move for the chair. When she finally sat down, and Greed rolled his eyes.

"Finally. You took your sweet time; while I'm on limited time"

"Limited time?" Greed rolled his eyes and waved the air.

"Nevermind that. I need to give you a warning that Wrath is coming, and you need to be ready" Greed spoke with  a hint of urgency and Inko face grew confused.

"Why are you telling me this this?" Inko asked. What Inko has gathered from Greed is that he has his own agenda. Despite the other personalities not liking some of the rules laid out for them by Greed- they respect him greatly and just saying his name makes them bow their heads like obedient dogs.

All except Envy for some reason.

"Wrath is known for making me change plans in my agenda. He's my first trump card for a reason" Greed mumbled something and then shook his head. "I have sorted my brothers in groups called Strikes based on power, strength, and teamwork. Myself, Pride, and Lust are the First Strike. Gluttony, Sloth, and Envy are the Second Strike"

"Wait. How can you all be there at once when you all share Izuku's body?"

Greed squinted and tapped his forehead. He began to glow faintly and then it turned into a bright flash of light. Inko shielded her eyes and when she finally looked back at Greed- there was two.
