Izuku shook his head and smiled at his mother. "Nothing... I love you mum..." Inko smiled, blinking a tear away. "I love you too Izuku."

"OI NERD!" Izuku shrunk in his seat as Katsuki stormed into the classroom, grabbing unwanted attention. "Y-Yes Kacchan?" Katsuki froze, something unreadable flashed over his eyes and he let out a 'tch' before looking away from Izuku's eyes and staring out of the window.

"You went home last night right?" Izuku blinked in terror. Katsuki wasn't shouted and for some unknown reason he was actually showing concern. "Am I going to die?" Katsuki choked on his saliva before snapped a explosive palm into the desk. "YES I DID!" Izuku yelled in reflex and then hid his face waiting for an insult and a hit for yelling.

"Good." Katsuki stalked away, slumping in his desk. Izuku stared in bewilderment.

The entire class zipped it. No one dared to move as Katsuki quietly sat in his seat, letting Izuku, the quirkless kid, shout back at him. Izuku scanned the room over angry, confused facing a few flinched in shock which surprised Izuku. 

'Did someone leak my blacklist book?' Izuku's hand ventured down to his pocket and froze. In surprise he roze to his feet his chair scraping. Katsuki looked back as he watched Izuku frantically search the entire classroom before his face slipped into a pissed look. Katsuki shivered, remembering what happened last night and the notes he read.

"Did anyone take a black book from my pocket?" Izuku's voice came out cold and it shocked many of the students as the usual shaking, stuttering teen now stood, firm and annoyed. "Well?" Katsuki stayed still, not daring to let an inch of knowledge show on his face. He heard Izuku sighed and met Izuku's eyes again. The usual timid boy was back again but in the midst of false innocence was a hint of sadness and it scared Katsuki.

"Damn... Writing in there was my only happiness now a days..." Izuku whispered as he walked past Katsuki's desk, not uttering another word after passing it. 'He knows. He fucking knows you have it. You're going to fucking die. It's Izuku we're talking about, he always keeps spares!'

The fear in Katsuki's eyes, fear of not being able to be a hero because of some fucked up decisions flashed over Katsuki's eyes. With a great blow to Katsuki's ego he decided that for his dream of being a hero he'd stick by Izuku and make his life better, protect him or let Izuku beat him up reluctantly of course if it meant saving his future career.

'Tell someone to kill themselves could send the person to prison...'

The rest of class, Katsuki didn't mutter a single word. He held back the burning anger of shouting at 'extras' and the burning urge to tell Izuku to stop being a wimp when others aproached Izuku and he'd twitch. 

Instead he took that boiling anger and directed it to anyone who even dared get close to Izuku, Izuku wasn't bothered all day and the teen wished he'd accidently slipped the book to Katsuki earlier.

"Mum! I'm going out to the woods!" Izuku called as he tied his laces. "No! What if more thugs approach you! Stay inside and watch TV!" Izuku frowned as his mother urgently raced over and blocked the front door. 

"Mum, i'll be fine. Please?" Inko frowned. "But sweetie..." Izuku sighed. "This was one of the reason's I didn't tell you... Mum, my life will always be like this. I can't hide all my life..." Inko shook her head. 

"Says who?! I'll work for both of us until I die!" Izuku blinked at his frantic mother. "Mum..." Inko sighed, letting her arms drop to her side, before pulling her son into a hug. "I'm just worried..." "I know mum but I promise i'll be careful." With that Inko reluctantly let her son leave not without a tazer she had brought along with the license to use it.

"How...?" Inko grinned. "Turns out the government had some things up for the quirkless. That's why you are now allowed to use a tazer as long as they attack with their quirk first." The woman held up a stern finger. "Remember to get video evidence whenever you can because we all know there are rotten officers who will take the side of the quirked over the quirkless." Izuku let out a chuckle as his mother got slightly angry, remembering one time when Izuku was a kid and a man had tried to refuse him entry.

The face of the elderly and most mothers as they ganged up on the officer would never leave Izuku's mind. "Okay, thanks mum. You're the best." He beamed as he hugged Inko and ran out to the familiar now bright path to the tree line and to the clearly.

Unknowingly to him Katsuki sat among the bushes with his phone camera, the boy had become increasingly paranoid at home and had to come out when he heard Izuku was going to the forest.

'I'll get my own blackmail material then you can't ruin my chances!'

A/N - Bro I literally made Izuku into the 'quiet kid' from all the fucking memes. Watch him pull out a gun from his bag and shook up his school.
