Chapter 1: The Start of everything

Chapter Text

Inko Midoriya knew that her husband wasn't a high-profile businessman and she also knew that who she loves the most is the No.1 villain in Japan. But what could she has done? It was love at first sight. Hisashi was perfect for her at least that's how she felt. They met in the Tokio University years ago and after their first year they started dating. He had a great sense of humor, he always made Inko feel safe next to him. So when Hisashi revealed his true identity the green haired woman confirmed that no matter who he is she loves him. Inko also agreed to keep this whole villain thing secret. She loved Hisashi but most importantly she saw what a good father he was. The only thing they were both worried about was their son, Izuku. Inko personally didn't want him to inherit his father's quirk.

"He is already four years old and he still hasn't shown his quirk" the woman said one night.
"I was a late bloomer too" replied her husband with a flustered smile.
"You're not helping" Inko quarreled releasing a big sigh- That's why I'm nervous. He looks more and more like you" she answered.
"Darling he will be okay. If we able to keep him in the right side it will be no problem. No matter what quirk he will inherit we will protect him. I promise to keep Izuku away from my jobs" said Hisashi which made his wife feel a little bit better.
"Couldn't you stop doing those jobs?" Inko questioned.
"It's not that easy. I can't undo what I did in the past. The heroes would never understand. The only important thing to me is to keep you and Izuku save. Can we skip this topic for now?" he begged and Inko saw regret in his eyes.
He did such horrible things. Maybe these things were planned, maybe they weren't. The point is, his husband will never quit his underworldly jobs because the hero society made him the villain and he never be able to escape from this title.
"Fine. Just promise me one thing" the green haired woman looked at him with a soft smile. "Be careful and don't get hurt okay?" Hisashi bursted into a laugh.
"Okay. I can promise that one" he said and after that he kissed her.

-Everything is going great, right? Nothing can go wrong. Well at least that's what everyone thought.-

It was a dark night, a stormy one actually. The streets were empty and quiet. Large purple storm clouds gathered in the sky. A man closed the windows of his bar before it started raining. For some reason he loved the nights like this, but today's night felt different. The air was heavy and everything was too quiet. It felt like a fateful event was going to happen and then someone started banging on the door.
"Coming" the man sighed and after that he opened the front door.
A white haired man was standing in the doorway. In one hand he held an umbrella in the other there was a little boy around five years.
"Sorry for arriving at your place without an invitation Kurogiri" said the man. "I had nowhere else to go" Kurogiri already recognised his guests but to tell the truth he was quite shocked.
Knowing everything about his Master's family is one thing, meeting with his son is another. All for One's family was rarely mentioned among the members of the League because of a good reason. To keep All for One wife and son safe.
"Come on in. You two will get soaked."
"I don't really have time" the white haired man shrugged.
"Is something happened Sensei?" the bartender asked.
"Yes! I want to ask you to take care of Izuku... j-just for a little while. I'll be back soon, I just ... I just have some work to be done" said All for One with a weird tone in his voice.
"I understood" Kurogiri replied with a little bow.
"Good and thank you my friend" said the white haired man while he took the boy down. "Be a good boy Izuku. I'll come back soon. Don't cause any trouble okay?"
"Okay... I won't" said the boy quietly.

So the usually quiet bartender ended up being with his master's son. He seemed like a nice kid. Honestly Kurogiri never thought that he would be in the situation to play babysitter one more time but then here we go. He glanced down at the boy. The boy had black hair and big green eyes, he just stood there in the middle of the room with a scared look in his eyes.
"Hey! You okay there?" the man asked after a long period of silence.
The black haired boy nodded without a sound.
"Your name is Izuku am I right?" he tried to start the conversation again.
"Y-Yes. What...uhm... is this place?" asked Izuku.
"It's the base of The League of Villains" Kurogiri answered.
"Ohh... what is the League of Villains?"
"Well that's... that's complicated. If your father arrives back he will surely explain it to you. Anyway would you like something to drink?" he asked as fast as he could.
"Maybe." the boy came closer.
"What about a cup of hot chocolate?"
"That would be nice! Thanks Mister!" said Izuku with a huge smile on his face.
"Just call me Kurogiri" the man answered and after that he started making hot chocolate which he hasn't done in years.
The boy sat down one of the bar's chair.

"So what's your quirk? Why do you look like a big cloud? Are you the only person here?" he asked in a curious voice tone.
"Geez. He is surely Sensei's son" the man thought. "Mhh. Let's see. Firstly my quirk is a portal I can teleport with it. My body is effected by my quirk that's why I look like this. And I'm not alo..." he started the sentence but he couldn' t finish it.
Loud footsteps were coming from the upstair. Kurogiri sighed, he knew those angry footsteps. "This will be a tiring evening for me."
"Hey Stupid Cloud! Who are you talking to?!" asked a young but rude voice.
The owner of the voice stopped at the bottom of the stairs. He was another boy around 10. He had light grey hair and blood like red eyes.
"Ahh, Shigaraki" the owner of the bar started but he immediately got interrupted.
"My name is still Tenko! Learn it, old man!" said the older boy. "Perfect timing. Sit down please" the man said as if nothing had happened.
"Hi" Izuku waved at the other boy.
"Who is that rat?!" Shigaraki turned to the bartender's direction with raised eyebrows.
"My name is Izuku Midoriya" said the black haired boy shyly.
"He is All for One's son" Kurogiri added the most important thing.
The grey haired boy looked shocked for a moment.
"No way! You are joking right? This weakling can't be All for One's son!" he laughed.
"Who are you calling a weakling?" asked Izuku.
"You of course. You can't even prove that you are Sensei's son, can you?"
"I ca... I can prove it" said the younger boy as he crossed his arms.
At this point the bartender was a little bit worried about what will happen next.
"Well then... please show us your power, your majesty" said the grey haired boy sarcastically, then he suddenly grabbed Izuku's shoulder, all his five fingers touched the other boy's T-Shirt.

Kurogiri jumped up but he couldn't move because of the shock. Izuku watched how his shirt started to decay and hissed in pain as he felt the effect of the older boy's quirk on his skin. He panicked and placed his palm to Shigaraki's forehead and tried to push him away.
"It won't be that easy. I'm stronger than you. Keep trying!" laughed the other boy.
Kurogiri still didn't move as fast as he wanted but at least he wasn't standing behind the bar's table. The man was about to stop the two boys with his portals but he had to stop again because he saw the moment when Izuku lost his control over his quirk. Freshly manifested quirk are dangerous so the bartender had to be extremely careful. The black haired boy's forest green eyes glowed for a second.
"Boys stop it!" the bartender shouted but it was to late.

The dominance between the two boys suddenly got reversed. Shigaraki was kneeling on the floor with his hand he covered his left eye.
"Whao. That's sick! You really stole my quirk with one touch, didn't you?" asked the grey haired boy in calm voice.
Izuku in the other hand was in the worst shape in his entire life, his body was trembling, he was about to cry.
I'm s-sorry. I'll give back" he said.
"Don't be such a crybaby! This is what I expected from All for One's son" smiled Shigaraki.
"So you're not mad at all?"
"Oh I AM MAD... but right now you seems to be useful so I guess we can be partners" patted Izuku's head softly. "Now give me back my quirk!"
Kurogiri was just standing there, eavesdropping their little chat. He was a shocked, angry and worried 'babysitter' in the same time.
"You two... will kill me one day" he murmured while grabbing the boys ears
"Ow ow ow! It hurts" replied the two kid.
"No more fight like this okay?" the bartender kneeled down to their level.
"Okay Cloud Head! We get it, we get it" said Shigaraki.
"Excellent" he smiled patting their heads. "Now come and drink your hot chocolates." Kurogiri watched them as they sat down with their mugs.
Izuku gave Shigaraki's quirk back and after that they started a conversation about All for One but they fell asleep after 15 minutes. Kurogiri got them blankets and stayed up until his Sensei arrived back. Hisashis's clothes were covered in blood his eyes shone with a cruel light in it. The white haired man was holding a box in his arm. On the top of the box there was a framed picture of a green haired woman.
"From now Izuku is staying with the League... with us where I can keep him safe" Hisashi told the bartender his voice had a broken tone. "Before you ask my old friend it's because I was unable to keep a simple promise."
"My deepest condolences Sensei" Kurogiri sighed.
"Thank you my friend. I hope that his mother death won't effect Izuku too much" Author note: Little did Hisashi know that Inko's death actually changed Izuku's thinking about the hero society for a lifetime.
