Izuku POV- Five Years Ago

"I can't believe my little boy is already eleven!" Mom shouts as she wipes away tears while Dad is in the other room grabbing a gift for me.

I don't really like gifts unless they are things for my inventions, but we can easily afford those due to Dad's band being so popular in America lately. But Dad claimed to have the perfect gift for me so I told him he could get it.

Mom gets a phone notification and checks it. "Wow!" She says. "What happened?" I ask and she gives me her phone to read a news article about top scientists being in a rush to create a generator of some sort that could provide clean energy.

"Sounds interesting." I say and brainstorm a few ideas before giving her the phone back. Dad walks in with a rectangular box with green wrapping paper all around it and hands it to me. "Go ahead!" He says and I tear the wrapping paper off and cut through the box to see a dark green electric guitar.

"Wow!" I say as I take it out and look at it for a few seconds before a humongous smile appears on my face. "I love it Dad! Thank you so much!" I say as I hug him before running off to go get my glasses which has an artificial intelligence integrated into them. I also made a small earpiece so only I could hear him.

"Jarvis you there?" I ask and the A.I. responds telling me that all the systems were functioning. I walk back into the living room while giving the "Instant Learn" command to Jarvis.

I sit down and pick up the guitar while Jarvis gathers all the information about it so I can instantly learn how to play. 'I've always been able to gather a bunch of information. Instantly understand and do it. So this shouldn't be too hard.'

"Very nice Sir

"Very nice Sir." Jarvis says as he gathers the last bits of information. "So do you have any clue how to play or do I have to teach ya?" Dad asks to which I reply with a smile and pick up the guitar and walk to his soundproof music room and gesture for him to follow.

He picks up his own electric guitar and sits a book of sheet music on a stand.

"Four. Three. Two. One!" He whispers as I begin the song perfectly and then the singing parts come along. 'I've never been confident with singing but why not? It's Dad.' I clear my throat and sing.

"Back in black

I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back. Yes, I'm
Let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I keep lookin' at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse cause I'll never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black, heyBack in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet
I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a band, with a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck
Just get out of my way'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yes I am
Hey yeah, yeah oh yeah
Back in now
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey
Back in black
Yes I'm back in black. Out of the sight" I finish singing and look at my Dad who has a humongous smile on his face.  "How did you do that?" He asks as the song wraps up. I just shrug and smile back. 

  'Now tomorrow I can test my theory about my energy making bombs because the money Grandma got me helped me get more material!' I think to myself as Dad leaves the music room and I continue to play.

...

Current Time- Izuku's POV

"You figure out how he made those bombs!" I hear a voice yell before I feel all the pain. "GAHHHH!" I shout as squirm and I feel something happening to my chest.

The man continues. "I want to know how he did that!" And then everything goes dark again.

You thought Izuku couldn't sing in this? Nope! He is going to love music and to know how to play multiple instruments. That's all for now everybody! See ya!
