Taboo Love

Chapter 7

"Izuku? Are you alright?" Inko asks Izuku as he's watching the news.

Izuku then just nods. The news is about their fight with Dabi.

"Two young heroes were fighting a villain with a quirk that seems like he could release flames. The young boy is identified as Izuku Midoriya. The young girl and the supposed villain has yet to be identified." The reporter on the news says.

Inko then asks a who that young girl was.

Izuku then says she was just a random hero that showed up on the scene.

The reporter then adds, "We also have some footage of them some time after escaping but we have decided to not reveal them to the public."

Izuku thinks as to what that footage could be but then immediately comes to the conclusion it was them kissing. As he thinks back about it his face gets red.

"It's only been a couple of hours and they've already got this much information?" Izuku thinks to himself.

Inko taps Izuku's shoulder saying that dinner is ready.

As they're eating Inko asks a question, "Izuku. Did you find anything about All Might?"

"O- oh yeah. No I- I haven't." Izuku says as he looks down.

Inko then pats Izuku's head, "Don't let it get you down. We'll find him sooner or later."

Izuku then thanks his mom.

As they're done eating Izuku walks into his room.

As he sits down on his bed he thinks about something, "I wonder if Himiko was serious or not. She says that she's being hunted but why? That villain also said that he had warned her... what's happening right now? He also said something about Stain deeming me a worthy hero..."

His thinking gets cut off as he hears his window getting opened.

"Wh- who's there?" Izuku asks with a bit of fear in his voice.

Someone then puts a hand over Izuku's mouth and pushes him onto his bed.

As he lands he then sees Himiko at the end of his bed doing a shush gesture.

"Hi- Himiko?" Izuku asks confused.

Himiko then sits beside Izuku.

"Izuku. You have to come with me." Himiko says with a serious face.

Izuku's confused. What is she saying? Why should I trust her? Questions are flooding into Izuku's head.

Himiko notices his weird expression, "I know this is sudden but trust me Izuku. Please."

Izuku then sharpens his eyes, "You have to explain me the details first."

Himiko then sighs, "Fine. Remember when I told you we were being hunted? They weren't serious at first. Now that they still haven't captured us they're getting serious and now that All Might's also gone it's going to get easier to get you since you're not at school most of the time now. Once they know where you live they'll come here to get you. So please Izuku. Come with me."

Izuku then gulps, "I'll get my hero costume first. They gave us our hero costume for freelancing since school has yet to start yet."

"Sure. Go get that." Himiko says nodding her head.

As Izuku grabs his hero costume he then tells Himiko go outside for a second.

Himiko then questions Izuku as to why.

"I- I have to change." Izuku says embarrassed.

"I'll just turn around." Himiko replies with a smile on her face.

"We never talk about that again." Izuku says with a red face.

Himiko then nods with a massive smile on her face.

"Before we Izuku. Can you answer my question?" Himiko says with a small smile.

Izuku then asks what question.

"If you love me or not." Himiko says as she does a heart shap with her hands near her chest.

"G- give me some time to think about it." Izuku replies with.

"Eheheheh. That's fine."

Izuku leaves a small note on his pillow explaining the situation to his mom and saying that she should get rid of the note immediately after reading it.

"Where are we going Himiko?"

"You'll see."

Izuku then thinks to himself, "Do I really have to trust her?"

They then arrive at the forest where Himiko attacked him.

"Why are we here?" Izuku asks.

"We're gonna have to stay here for quite a bit Izuku." Himiko replies with.

"O- okay."

As they start walking aimlessly in the forest Himiko then sits on the bottom of the tree as she rests her back on the tree.

"Let's take a little break here. I'm sure we're a bit far now." Himiko suggests.

As Izuku also rests his back on the tree Himiko then lays her head on Izuku's shoulder.

"H- Himiko?"

"Hm?"

"Why do you like me so much?"

Himiko then giggles, "I'll answer that question once you answer mine."

Izuku chuckles, "Fair enough."

"Hey Himiko. Why are they hunting you and me?" Izuku asks.

"Oh, don't you know about the story yet? The taboo of heroes and villains?"

"What story?" Izuku asks confused.

As Himiko is about to tell the story she gets cut off as they both hear screaming.

Himiko then gets a knife from her bag and Izuku assumes a fighting stance.

"You brats! Get over here!"

"I feel like I've heard that voice before... Muscular!" Izuku says.

"Izuku. I have a plan. Just do what I say okay?" Himiko states.

"Okay. I trust you."

"Muscular!"

"Huh?" Muscular then sees Izuku behind him in a fighting stance.

Muscular then charges at Izuku but Izuku jumps to the side avoiding it but as he lands Muscular then swings his left arm to the left but Izuku blocks it and he goes flying.

"Why won't you fight back you brat?!"

Izuku then starts running towards Muscular but he then slides in between Muscular's legs and runs off.

"You little-" Muscular then starts chasing Izuku.

Izuku then suddenly stops running.

Muscular then starts moving slower, "What is this brat thinking?"

Izuku then starts getting covered in some sort of liquid paste. As the liquid paste disappears it reveals a naked Himiko,

Himiko then throws 2 knives but Muscular easily blocks the knives.

"Did you actually think that would wor-" Before he could finish his sentence he sees the actual Izuku drop from a tree.

"1,000,000!" Izuku screams out at he punches Muscular and makes a crater. Muscular gets launched.

"Izuku? Izuku! Are you okay?!" Izuku could fainlty hear Himiko screaming for him.
