Chapter 27
"Akio Midoriya, Huh." Aizawa gruffs as he stares at the profile he has, a completely average person, a salaryman who works for a company, quirkless. And as he said, completely average.
How did Izuku manage to mutate such an odd quirk from him?
Usually in cases like these, he'd inherit his mother's quirk, the ability to pull small things to her. Instead, Izuku got a quirk which makes him able to destroy things with no consequences to his body and generate and give quirks. It practically screams fishy, quirk mutation is a thing yes but they usually follow by the parents original quirk, could it be just a rare case? If so this would be the first ever recorded type of mutation like this in history, the only semblance Izuku has to his mother's quirk is the fact that he can suck things to him like a black hole.
To be able to give someone a quirk... to create one in the first place, Aizawa has a guess over who his father could be. Just a guess, a wild guess but it's... it's probably going to end up as the truth, he sighed. Of course the scary kid who got villain vibes would end up having him as a father, it's only natural, practically in his instincts probably. Well one thing for sure, after knowing this information, there's no way they can kick the kid off UA now, it's practically letting a criminal out of the streets. Call him biased but it's the truth.
"Um, Mr.Aizawa?" the door creaks and a familiar voice is heard, "we're here." Izuku says, Toshinori was right behind him.
"Took you long enough." He gruffs, sitting down, "take a seat, let's talk, do you want Toshinori to be with you or?" Izuku nods and the blond sighs a bit before sitting down with Izuku.
"Don't worry, just here to ask a couple of questions, if that's okay with you?" Izuku nods.
"It's alright with me, I don't mind."
"Well first of all, do you know where your father is? I called the company he's supposedly working for and well, they said he's not on the record." Izuku bit his lip, looking a bit tense with the topic.
"He's... alright, I'm not sure where he is though."
"You don't know?"
"Well er, he kinda, left us a bit?" He says, "I don't know when he's coming back." Aizawa, looking at Izuku who looked like a nervous panicked mess.
"He left you?"
"Young Midoriya?" Toshinori looked concerned, placing a hand on his shoulder, Izuku looked more tense.
"W-Well you know, just been, a couple of weeks, he'll come back." He murmurs, "can I have the next question?"
Toshinori looked like he wanted to question him more, and Aizawa would like to as well but Izuku looked too stiff and tense.
"You said your father is quirkless?" Izuku nods.
"Do you have any relatives that has a similar quirk to you?" He shakes his head.
"No, as far as I know. Well, I really only meet relatives from my mum's side, maybe dad has someone who had a quirk similar to mines?" He nods, "must be it, most of mum's side has something close to levitation or gravity, I probably got most of my quirk from my dad."
"I see. Does you father know know about your quirk?"
"He only knows that I can eat stuff. He thinks it's kinda stupid and useless." He pouts, "I think it's... useful, atleast I think it is."
That sounds a bit like a red flag, Aizawa should set up a parent meeting conference soon. How would Izuku react to something like that? He knows he shouldn't but it's a good way to test the waters over what the hell is going on with his family, he just needs to check how the greenet would react about it then go off from there, he's not actually gonna do a meeting, it's too much work.
"When did you first find out that you can do this?"
"The giving quirk or?"
"The stars you said you could make?"
"Oh uh, few weeks ago! Before the sports festival, I was trying to find out if I can swallow fire- I can!" Izuku chirps, "it was fun and weird. Eating flames is weird, it's like eating a bunch of air, my cheeks were puffed up like a squirrel!"
"I see." Aizawa couldn't help but smile a bit, Toshinori had a big smile on his face too, worry gone from his features.
Aizawa asks a couple more questions about his quirk before finally sending Izuku off, he was gonna make Toshinori stay but- the man looked pretty insistent on staying with Izuku for now.
______________
"Midoriya-shounen, I don't think I've ever went to your home before." Yagi says out of nowhere, Izuku looks up at him and then back down the menu.
"Er, the heater is broken so it's very cold, I don't think you should- for now." He says, his voice soft, "My mum is sick right now too." Yagi couldn't really see what sort of expression Izuku is doing right now as the teen was hiding himself behind the menu, "maybe next time?"
"Ah I see, well I suppose that can't be helped." Toshinori nods, "feel free to choose whatever you want!"
Izuku grins at him, a bit cheekily. And in a few minutes- their table was filled to the brim with food- for Izuku. Toshinori didn't have the stomach to eat such a large meal, he has a bowl of mushroom soup and some bread as Izuku chows down the mountain of food right infront of them. It's good to see him so energetic and happy like this for the small price of not even a dent to his wallet since he's the number 1 hero.
Izuku finishes his meal right after Toshinori has finished his soup, all that's left on the table were the plates and the utensils.
"That was good!" Izuku chirps, looking thoroughly satisfied, Toshinori grins back, he quickly pays for the food and stands up, the green haired teen quickly following behind him.
"Would you mind taking a stroll with me for a short while?" Toshinori offers.
"Of course I don't mind, I'd love that!" The greenet chirped in response, a happy smile on his face. Toshinori can't see it since Izuku is following but he can feel the brightness of it, radiating from his back- and was quite surprised when Izuku reached out for his hand, holding unto it much like a child would do to a parent, he looks back and Izuku has an unreadable expression on his face, he was smiling, but at the same time it felt like Toshinori was looking at a blank canvas, he stops walking and Izuku stops as well.
"...Is this fine?" Izuku asked.
It was more than fine.
The blond nodded, smile suddenly wide on his face as he continued to walk. A warm feeling of fondness resonating in his chest.
"You know, Yagi-sensei, sometimes I wish you were my dad instead."
"Yeah? Why?"
"You're actually nice to me..." Izuku said, blushing shyly, "I feel safe and nice when I'm with you."
"Does that not happen with your father?"
"No." He said with a frown, "I lied to Aizawa-sensei. Our dad left me a week before the sludge incident. He said I'm useless."
"Oh..." Yagi felt a pang in his heart and then a cold feeling overtook him, "how is your mother?"
"...She hits me now." He said, "I wish she'd stop it. It doesn't hurt but it makes me feel really sad. She was so happy before when dad was here but now, she doesn't even talk to me anymore, she just yells." Izuku looked heartbroken, "I wish dad would come back but I know he wouldn't..."
"I... see." Yagi wasn't sure what to feel, he felt a flurry of sadness and anger, why is- Izuku is such a bright cheery child, why would his parents do that to him? Can't they see how much love Izuku has to give? "Izuku, my boy." Yagi smiled, "would you like to stay in my place today?"
"Huh?" Izuku's eyes widened, "...Is it because I told you?"
"...Perhaps, but I just want you to stay there for now, will that be fine? I have a lot of stock up food given to me as gifts but because of my stomach I never get to eat it." He said with a smile, "I wouldn't want it to go to waste."
"Is that really fine?"
"Of course it is." He said, patting Izuku's head, "let's go."
____________________
Aizawa, listen. I need you to check up on
Midoriya's home.
He lives in an apartment right.
What brought this on?
He told me his mother was hitting him.
Oh.
Alright I'll get on it.
Where is he right now, is he alright?
He's with me, I'm making him stay the day.
Just a day huh. Alright I'll make sure
she's behind jails by the end of the day.
Or maybe I'll just get her to a rehab or
something. Make sure Izuku doesn't find out.
He's gullible, just say his mom agreed
to stay with you for the year while
screaming at you.
"Yagi-san? Who are you talking to?" Izuku said, curiously looking at him, he was eating in the kitchen but came to the living room to check on how Yagi was doing.
"I was just talking with your mother." He can practically see the fear in Izuku's eyes and it makes him a little bit more sad about his situation.
"R-Really? What did she say?"
"...She said she doesn't want you anymore and that you could stay with me." Yagi can practically see Izuku's heart breaking, the teen sat next to him and hugged him, Yagi hugged back and soon, he could feel wet tears down his shirt.
This is for the best... isn't it?
