In the city,
Morning...

Midoriya's POV

"Here. Take this." Mirio-san handed over a can of orange juice that he bought from the vending machine. "T-Thank you, Mirio-san..." I shyly thanked him and took the orange can from his hand. It was already opened by him.

Mirio-san sat next to me on the bench, slowly sipping on his watermelon juice. I did the same too and drank the orange juice. Ah, I felt so refreshed!

"How are you feeling now?" Mirio-san asked me, a grin plastered on his face. I twirled the tip of my curly hair and smiled at him. "I-I feel much better. Thank you for the treat, Mirio-san..." I thanked him again for the second time.

"So, um.. Izuku Midoriya, right?" Mirio-san started, breaking the awkward silence between us. I nodded my head weakly. Honestly, I felt kinda dizzy after all the crying and sobbing.

"Well, Midoriya—"

"Please, do call me Izuku... Don't address me with my last name." I begged, hanging my head low as I gripped the aluminium can. Those painful memories from my childhood flashed before my mind.

I hate being called Midoriya... It just traumatized me. Because it was Dad's last name.

I was planning to change my last name once I reach 18. I don't want to keep the last name of my abuser!

"Oh, Izuku then." Mirio-san seemed confused by my demand yet he agreed nonethelessly. "Yes..." I muttered, my mind wandered somewhere else in this world.

My eyes instinctively darted to this teenage boy sitting beside me. I studied his school uniform attentively.

That is... U.A. uniform...

U.A., home of heroes. The one school I once dreamed to enter. But I couldn't... It wasn't because I was affiliated with Shie Hassaikai or anything. I have a chance of entering it actually...

But Kai...

Kai opposed the idea of me applying to U.A., exclaiming that homeschooling was enough for me.

I was extremely offended by his opposition. We didn't talk for a few days but then, I complied. His words stung my heart like venom and actually affected me. I gave up. I gave up my dream to be a hero.

And I was homeschooled till now...

Kai, Hari and Pops are my tutors. But all the time, it was Hari who taught me various things.

"Hey... May I ask? Why did you ask for my help? Did something happen to you?" Mirio-san asked, curiosity filling his cyan blue eyes. I snapped back into reality, staring at his face silently. "Are you a pro hero, Mirio-san?" I tilted my head.

Mirio-san suddenly burst into laughter mess. "I'm not but I'm on my way to be one!" He grinned widely. This was a trait of him I really liked. He was always cheerful and positive.

I say like that as if I have known him for years...

"As for the answer to your question..." I looked down to the concrete ground, my bangs foreshadowing half of my freckled face. "Izuku?" Mirio-san uttered my name in complete confusion.

If before I wasn't able to save Mom... Then nos...I wouldn't let the history repeat itself.

I will definitely rescue the people I treasure!

"I am from Shie Hassaikai..." I started, still hanging my head low. I could sense Mirio-san's expression changed into shock. I knew. I knew his work.

Since I looked into his eyes and made physical contact with him, I can see his future.

To think that, he is actually investigating about Shie Hassaikai behind the scene... Along with other well-known hero I recognize. No wonder they can stop Shie Hassaikai from choosing the path leading to darkness.

I lifted my head up and looked at him, smiling sadly. "From your expression, I bet you have heard of that name... No, you already knew it. Because you are investigating about this yakuza group." I clarified calmly, though my heart was beating fast.

I hope he doesn't take a drastic action such as knocking me out...

"...who in the world are you?" Mirio-san's voice to began to sound serious and husky. I still had the same calming smile. "I'm the young mistress of that group. I'm not a yakuza but I'm related to them. My grandpa is the first head of Shie Hassaikai... But now... "

"... Kai Chisaki took over the group?"

I nodded my head and my hands began trembling violently. "He... He is not a good leader... Plus, he is abusing a little girl..." I croaked out, my face darkened with fear as I recalled the moments I heard Eri-chan's screams and cries, begging for Kai to stop torturing her.

Nevertheless, Kai was a heartless man. I... I was the only one he genuinely treated as a real human being.

"I beg you, Mirio-san! Please... Please save her from him!" I pleaded, tears of sorrow streaming down from my eyes.

This... This is the only thing I could do to help Eri-chan.

Mirio-san stared at me in pity and pattern my back reassuringly. "It is okay, me and the other heroes will definitely—"

"IZUKU!"

A man's voice interrupted our serious conversation. I looked over my shoulder, only to see Hari standing behind me. "Ha... Hari?"

Hari grasped my wrist all of a sudden and yanked me away from Mirio-san. "Wait- Hari—"

"We are going home." Hari cut me off. His voice was deep and husky, a very ususual tone he would use when talking to me. I glanced at Mirio-san in guilt, and mumbled a little 'I'm sorry'.

Hari was glaring dagger at Mirio-san which I knew was a bad sign. Once Hari lost his patience, it would be the end of the world. He would never hesitate to lash out on the person who ever tried to hurt me.

Before I could speak up to fix the misunderstanding, Hari dragged me away from Mirio-san. "You there, stop!" Mirio-san suddenly voiced out.

"Let that girl go this instant!" He demanded furiously.

Out of the blue, Mirio-san disappeared from our eyesight. Hari and I both gasped in shock. "Where did he go—"

But before we could comprehend the whole situation, Mirio-san appeared before Hari. He was shirtless and was aiming a punch at my lover.

No, stop....!!!

I redlexively jumped in front of Hari and held my arms over him protectively. I shut my eyes tight, as I focused the flow of power in my entire body.

I'm sorry to do this, Mirio-san...! I'm sorry!

When I opened my eyes back, they glowed bright yellow and my vision was blinded with a very bright light...

I.. Have no choice...

But to do this so Hari wouldn't get hurt.

I have no choice but to change this future!

What is... This place?

There are so many... Clocks... And they are still ticking at inhuman speed.

This phenomenon and surrounding...!!

It is the same one I experienced when I tried to stop Kai from harrasing ne!

Like I thought, I can control the future itself.

But.... How wide is the range of my power?

A few seconds? A few minutes? A few hours?

Even I myself don't know...

But, if I can control it properly, I can use it for good purpose...
