Izuku started living with the wolves. He was quickly welcomed there.

He took out his guitar and started playing it. Addison was curious and came closer to Izuku.

"Are you curious? I was supposed to perform it for my parents, but..." The thought of his parents brought a sad look on his face. Addison saw, and sat beside Izuku, licking his face gently.

'Mom, dad, I miss you...'

Everest looked at Izuku, got closer, and cuddled with him.

Izuku smiled, 'Thank you for all the things you've done for me. I'm happy now. The wolves are taking care of me. Goodbye mom. Goodbye dad.'

The wolves started gathering around him.

"Thanks guys. Do you want to hear it? The song I practiced for my parents?"

The wolves sat around him and Izuku started playing his guitar.

(Song: "All Because of You" by Jimmy Scott)

Never knew the girl that you once were
or the boy that dad once was.
but I feel I do tonight.

Maybe it's because
travelin' through the years
at the speed of light.

Missing you mom and dad tonight.
so till I'm back in your arms again,
these words from my heart I send,

You gave me love
you gave me life
helped me find my better side.

Made my heart
and you made my bones
gave me strength to stand alone.

The first to cheer when I dared to fly
and when I fell the first to cry.

And if my dreams ever come true
It's all because of you.
all because of you.

For every time that I didn't call.
or even think of you at all
there were so many more I did,
and I thank God I was your Kid.

but now the hours go in late.
and these feelings just won't wait.
so i've just got to let you know
how much I love you so.

you gave me love
you gave me life
helped me find my better side.

made my heart
and you made my bones
gave me strength to stand alone.
the first to cheer when I dared to fly
and when I fell the first to cry.

and if my dreams ever come true
it's all because of you.
all because of you.
any good thing I do,
it's all because of you.

(End of Lyrics)

Izuku had been holding back his tears when he played the song. Now the song had ended, he couldn't hold them back anymore.

He burst into tears. Tucker went up, and wrapped around him. Izuku hugged him, crying into his fur, until he fell asleep.

The Wolves' POV

"He lost his parents..." Everest said.

"Yeah... just like us." Basil replied.

"But we didn't get the love from our parents like he did." Tucker said.

"That is exactly why we're taking care of him. We promised to each other that we'll help whoever needed it. He needs our help. He can't live in these woods alone." Addison stepped into the conversation.
