--- 3 months later ---
The students had become accustomed to their new life. Monday through Friday were training days. Weekends were schooling; math, history, science, etc... but the schooling wasn't nearly as demanding as the training.
They had a steady cooking schedule, between Katsuki (who cooked very well), Rikido (Who always was up for making desserts), Momo (who could whip out foreign ingredients in a blink of an eye), Tenya (Who would follow the instructions to a hair), and Aizawa (Who somehow found motivation to cook once in a blue moon) they had many wonderful meals in the backyard under the stars... or in the living room if it was raining. They had movie nights, game nights, sparring nights, campouts... it was like a glorious summer camp... if you forgot that they were all criminals of the state.
They had picked their villain names and designed their costumes. They had created special moves and had grown tremendously in the past few months. They were all strong in body and quirks ... Aizawa was still working on the mental part.
The class had, unlike the other classes, completely integrated Aizawa's previous students into their lives. It started with Ochaco and Iida having a conversation with Izuku, then suddenly Eijiro and Denki were teasing Katsuki. Then Shoto, Tsuyu, Ochaco, Iida, and Izuku were playing heated rounds of cards. Katsuki, Eijiro, Denki, Mina, and Hanta were yelling at each other over video games (all in good fun). Momo, Kyoka, and Toru were looking at makeup tutorials and giggling about clothes (well, Kyoka just judged which made the other two giggle). Mashirao and Hitoshi became frequent sparring partners and would ofter laugh as they fought. It simply went on from there. Dungeon and Dragons games between Fumikage, Mina, and Mezo sometimes included Izuku and Shoto. Mina and Denki eventually pulled Hitoshi into their late-game nights with Katsuki. Anything and everything became a group ordeal, they became a large family.
On one sunny Saturday, after they had all finished lightning rounds of English and History, the group was relaxing in the living room and kitchen.
Izuku was mumbling something as he scribbled in his journal. Suddenly he seemed to have a light bulb.
"Sero!" he called.
"Yeah Midoriya?" Hanta answered.
"I think I figured out how you could hide and go into stealth mode without changing your outfit!" Izuku said.
"Oh yeah?" Sero asked coming over to look of Izuku's shoulder.
"We'll have to use... Mr. Aizawa!" he called suddenly.
"What?" Aizawa called from the kitchen.
"I'm helping Sero train but I need to go outside," Izuku claimed.
"Yeah okay, whatever. Be careful," Aizawa sighed.
"Thanks, Da-" Izuku began, he caught himself and bowed, "thank's, sir."
The two boys walked out Izuku discussing his plan.
"Is it just me or did Izuku almost call Mr. Aizawa Dad?" Denki pondered.
"I knew it," Minoru grinned, "Midoriya is Aizawa's kid, bet he had some scandalous affair.."
"No way, they don't even look alike and Midoriya acts a whole lot different than Mr. Aizawa," Mina pointed out.
"I thought that for a while," Shoto nodded. "But then Shinso came into the picture."
"Shinso is Aizawa's secret child!?" everyone gaped.
"No," Hitoshi huffed from the couch that he was trying to nap on.
"He's a damn conspiracy theorist, don't listen to a thing Icy-Hot says," Katsuki grumbled walking past them all, a bag of chips in hand.
"Actually, I've been thinking about Midoriya," Fumikage said from his seat.
"Why?"Mashirao asked.
"Don't you all wonder why someone like him is here?" Fumikage asked, "No offense to him, but it just seems to put him in danger."
They all looked to each other and nodded.
"I figured it was because he's so good at observing quirks and has such good ideas about them," Mezo offered.
"No," Shoto denied, "When I first got here Midoriya never used to help us individually, he would train independently with Aizawa like the rest of us... It wasn't until he thought of Shinso's voice replicator that Aizawa proposed he become a training assistant." Shoto then thought back to his encounter with Izuku that had brought on his right side, "Before that he rarely sparred people... but he could always handle himself when he could."
"I think... Midoriya once had a quirk," Tsuyu stated timidly looking around, "And I think it was taken from him. Kero."
A dark silence descended on the group and they all looked back to make sure Aizawa wasn't listening. The pro villain had already gone upstairs.
"So... you think Izuku used to have a quirk... but it was stolen by All for One?" Momo asked her voice shaking with pity.
"Well it makes sense doesn't it, he knows a lot about quirks, and Aizawa definitely feels like he owes Midoriya something... I bet he failed to save his quirk and now Midoriya can never fulfill his dream," Shoto pondered.
"That's terrible," Ochaco said feeling a wave of pity for the boy.
"That nerd never had a quirk," Katsuki spoke up. He sat across the room eating a bag of chips.
"And how would you know?" Denki challenged.
"Because he and Midoriya grew up together," Hitoshi stated turning over and once again trying to sleep.
There was a stunned silence.
"Yeah, I knew Deku as a kid. He never had a quirk," Katsuki shrugged continuing to eat.
"Do you know what happened? How he got here?" Toru asked intrigued.
"It's not for me to tell you damn nosy bastards!" Katsuki snapped.
"Oh come on please!?" Denki begged.
"It isn't our place to pry into his business," Mezo sighed.
"Oh, come on Bakugo can't you just tell us?"Eijiro pleaded.
"Ask him yourself," Katsuki snapped.
A fight between Denki, Eijiro, and Katsuki broke out. Meanwhile, everyone else was pondering their friend's mysterious past that somehow intertwined with Aizawa, Katsuki, and All for One.
Hitoshi listened to the interaction from the couch. He smirked and allowed himself to chuckle... just like Katsuki to defend Izuku without actually defending him. Then he fell back asleep.
(Short chapter because... you know... Bakugo being secretly caring is to die for. Have a good day/night. Bye!!)
