Chapter Text
Bakugou watched as his body slowly fell he was dying as he fell. He had idly wondered what would happen if he could change it all , stop this useless war. And change the on coming fate of Midoriya Izuku .
“Bakugou, Bakugou wake up .” Bakugou heard a voice call out to him where the fuck is he? He had quickly shot up from where he was sitting, to see his middle school classroom? What the hell?
“Yo dude chill out you had somehow slept through the last class of the day, the bell just rung.” Some extra had told him the one with the long finger nail quirk he thought. He shove the boy to the side , he needed to get out of here. Bakugou had no idea what day it was, or how much time he had until whatever the fuck this is will wear off.
“Fuck off,” Bakugou mumbled. He had quickly grabbed what little he had and basically half ran out the room . When he had gotten out of that shitty school he sprinted home he had to get home what if it wasn’t just me who went back in time is mom okay? His thoughts spiral as he slammed opened the door.
“Hey brat how was you-“ Mitsuki had cut herself off after taking one look at Bakugou. She had quickly pull the boy into a hug as he shook thoughts of war raced through his head. “Shush your okay everything is okay you’re going to be fine.” Mitsuki whispered into his ear, he was okay everything is okay nothing has happened yet he could change everything.
Bakugou took shaky breaths as he slowly calmed down, he had at some point fell to the floor and had took in the space around him. There was papers on the floor near the table that Mitsuki was sat at they had probably fell when she ran by his side he looked to the calendar on the wall it was May X 2XXX two weeks before the sludge villain accident he still had time .
“Hey you good kid?” Oh right Mom Bakugou slowly nodded. “WHAT THE HELL HAD HAPPENED?” Right she hadn’t seen him show other then anger to be fair their relationship had mostly been them yelling at each other but it had never been never aggressive it was just the way they talked.
“A lot we should probably grab dad .” Bakugou said ,He couldn’t lie to his parents if he was going to do this . They would be able to see through his lies like glass they new him to well he wouldn’t be able to hide much from them for never long it would be better for everyone if he told them from the start.
So when they had all sat down to talk he started from the beginning, “ It had all started at normal day walking home…”

Bakugou Mitsuki
It had been a normal day for the most part until Katsuki had gotten home. They had all gotten up gotten ready for the day he was being his normal don’t show any emotion and process any other with immediate anger everyone head out . She had started on a commission that she had gotten last night it was a nice quiet day , until Katsuki had gotten home he had slammed the door open not a usual a thing to happen.
She had started to great the boy but cut herself off when she had looked up. He was sobbing and breathing hard he was clearly having a panic attack. Mitsuki had quickly ran to her boy papers going everywhere. She was never good at comforting people , she most time when in high school when she would have panic attacks it would take hours of sobbing and breaking almost everything around her.
She really wish that when she had Katsuki that part of her would not be passed down but Katsuki but unfortunately he had been a almost a little twin of her as a teen except he was more bite then bark at times.
But her presence had been enough of comfort and he had slowly calmed down taking control breathes that the end of it like he had been doing it for years. What is he hiding? The Katsuki this morning wouldn’t show a single tear is he could help it and never in a million years run in sobbing he would rather do anything else .
“Hey kid you good.” She said in the most calming voice she could muster. When the boy nodded the calming voice immediately breaking as she yelled “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!” She cringed slightly in her head she new that was not the right move but it hadn’t affected Katsuki at all he just calmly said that we should go get Maseru as he had a lot to tell them.
It was around three hours of him explaining how he had gotten into U.A how Midoriya got a quirk and how the villains attacked them how a war started and how he died. If this morning someone told her that her son from a few years in the future would run into the house and somehow go back in time . She would have told them to go fuck off and that it was a good joke.
But watch her son explain how villains attacked him and his class she couldn’t not believe him he looked so tired and not once did he look angry only when he had explained what he had done to Izuku but it was clearly mostly at himself.
Maybe if this world wasn’t as weird as it was she would have probably thought he had a mental break but for gods sake people had powers and her son could probably blow up a small forest with just his hand it wasn’t really that hard to realize that he wasn’t lying.
So after three hours to explaining she said “ I believe you but I want to help with whatever your planning on doing to make sure that doesn’t happen.”
Maseru added “ I also want to help I don’t want any of that happening.” Mitsuki didn’t know what was going through his mind but she assumed that is was the same as hers they didn’t want their boy to die and next time not come back. They could see in Katsuki eyes that he had seen more than a kid who was in high school should have seen .
At times when talking about things his eyes would look distant like he was reliving everything he was saying. Mitsuki as a mother she knew that she couldn’t take all his pain away but she knew one thing she didn’t want any other kids to go through this .
So when Katsuki had said that he was planning on becoming a vigilante to get information to show what the league was planning on doing before it happened. She had one rule she would come with him. She didn’t want him to leave one day and just not come back and look at the news to find that he died by the hands of some villain.
“You should rest Katsuki.” He was sitting at the dining room table with a notebook he was writing in it probably planning for the next few months .
“No I need to finish this i don’t have much time until the slug villain incident i have to plan.” He said not looking from the notebook it had been 11 O-clock she had never seen him so stubborn or stay up past 8:30 .
“Come on you have earned rest thousand times over go to bed.” Mitsuki said apparently this had been the right thing to say he had a desperate look on his face for a moment then he shut the notebook finally relaxing all tension seeming to leave as exhausted took over.
He’d gotten up and mumbled something about going to bed. She had headed over to Maseru who was watching the whole thing. “I wish I could help more .” She whispered as he pulled her into a hug.
“I know but all we can do right now is let him rest.” He had whispered back . Mitsuki knows that these next few months are going to rough.

Midoriya Izuku
Midoriya is not stupid unlike what all his teachers say. He knows what people act like mostly because he had to have it beaten into him. So when Bakugou had almost 180 in personally but in only the little things a weeks ago he would have yelled at him for muttering or if he asked for anything would have gotten him an explosion to the face .
The first day he started to act like this he just thought that maybe he was in a good mood or something. He wasn’t complaining with it if he could have a day with not as much yelling or beatings he wasn’t complaining. Even if he was still getting beat up by others.
But when it was the same the next day it had surprised Midoriya, there was something he hadn’t caught the last day Bakugou was writing in a notebook he had barely looked up for the lecture. He didn’t seem to care about it like what ever he was doing was hundred times more important than whatever the teachers were doing.
So by the end of the week when Bakugou hadn’t even attempted to yell at Midoriya he had come up with two solutions
1. This is not Bakugou some random Bakugou from the future that had learned what he was doing was wrong.
2. Bakugou was hiding something.
If anyone knows when Bakugou is lying it’s Midoriya even if they probably haven’t talked without arguing in literal years . They still know each other in and out. So when Bakugou started to act weird he had assumed that Bakugou was hiding something.
Midoriya had managed to catch Bakugou on his way home . He yelled “Kachan !” To get the blonde boy attention. The boy had look genuinely surprised that he had ran up to talk. But that surprise had almost immediately masked with a fake anger it didn’t look like when he was actually angry.
“What,” Bakugou murmured .
“Oh ok I’ll get into it I know you’re hiding something.” Bakugou had looked nervous at that was unusual but he continued, “ I won’t pry I’m just concerned about you.”
‘Why are you like this Izuku?’ He whispered to himself Midoriya hadn’t been able to hear all of what he said so he just looked at the other confused.
Bakugou sighed “ I’m fine Izuku , let go to the park we can talk there.”
The entire walk over Bakugou had been calm and hadn’t said a word the Bakugou he knew was a raging fire taking down anything that stops him to get his goals . Well Bakugou right now was only a flicker of that the fire just burning under the surface. It was an odd sight to see.
So he wasn’t very surprised when Bakugou calmly sat down at a swing at the empty park and said. “A lot of things are going to happen soon that I know of and I can’t tell you I have no idea what that would happen if I told . And I’m sorry I’ve been a dick to you for such a long time and for what because you have no quirk that’s so fucking stupid.”
What? Never in a million years would he think Kachan would say those words in that order , there was a million things to decode from that but for now Midoriya says. “ You really are amazing.” Kachan looked as if was going to sob at that’s so Midoriya changed the subject. “ And why are you being so cryptic dude?”
Kachan laughed it was a real laugh not one of those manic laughs when he would yell at Midoriya . For once Midoriya thinks that maybe that the world is not as bad as it seems.

Bakugou Katsuki
Bakugou was tired so very tired , he had too much to do first he had too plan out what he was going to do it not like information was going to fall into his hands. He and Mom where going to be vigilantes his Mom apparently had knew Martial arts. Learned in her teen age years and could hold her own in hand to hand combat. They had spared for a bit it was frustrating that he was not as strong that he was in the future all the muscle memory gone. But he moved on.
Three days after he had went into the past Bakugou and Mitsuki had sat down to design their costumes they both knew that the costumes couldn’t be like lime light hero’s they would be to recognizable . It had too be unassuming but practical. Which most lime light heroes costume most of the time are not.
After about two hours of sketches they had finally found one that would be practical for the both of them . Bakugou and Mitsuki had both agreed to go quirk less for fighting as Bakugou quirk is to flashy for vigilante work and Mitsuki’s quirk isn’t really suited for fighting.
The design had been simple a black turtleneck with a somewhat bulletproof vest with matching cargo pants , they would also go out in black masks with an orange X over the thing. This was all Mitsuki idea Bakugou would rather never see an orange X in his life again but it had been part of what his hero costume would be since he was a kid. So he gave Mitsuki a peace of mind and let her add the design.
Where Mitsuki would get that type of fabric for the bulletproof vest Bakugou didn’t know.The first night they went out to patrol they said goodnight to Bakugou dad, and the plan started.
1. Get established in underground work. If they could get underground hero’s and other vigilantes to trust them they could slowly over time get more contacts, and be able to get the needed information to expose the league before they even attack U.A.
They had under four months too do this. It seems like an impossible task but Bakugou had to go through harder things. It had been a bit awkward at first the only times he properly patrolled before the war was with lime light heroes they had most the time had been during the day and hadn’t been working with stealth. But over time as they stuck to the dark of the streets and had found a few different fights.
The first one had been a a couple arguing in the street they had watched for a few moments wondering if it would sort itself out the man had started to get physical. This pissed off Mitsuki and she had said that “I’m going to deal with this man.”
So Bakugou had watched as his Mom had beat the shit out of the dude until he had almost keel over and at that she pulled out a zip tie and zipped tied his hand behind his back. The girl had been shaking afterwards she had bruises all over her at varying degrees of healing she couldn’t have been more than 16. And the dude looked to be almost 40 it had disgusted Bakugou.
The girl whispered “I don’t have anywhere to go too.” Still shaking Mitsuki gave the girl a comforting look.
“Don’t worry I know a place you can stay.” Mitsuki said as she had started to walk the girl down to the woman and children homeless shelter they most times had a space or two open they had hoped that their would be a space for the girl they both had really didn’t want to deal with the police this early in their vigilante career. That had not even existed for more than two hours yet.
Luckily they had a space open and had resources for homeless teens. “Thank you.” The girl said bowing slightly. Bakugou hoped that the girl would get the help she needed and most definitely deserved.
But now they had to deal with the man. “What the fuck do we do with the Bastard now. As much it would be Satisfying to leave the dude to the wolves. He needs to be behind bars.” Bakugou said looking down at the unconscious man on the ground.
“Ah I had a plan for that,” Mitsuki pulled a phone out of her pocket it looked cheap and not anything that she would use in a million years. “A spare phone to call the police if needed.”
She had dialed 110 and when a police operator had picked up she had made her voice high pitched and scared sounding as she said “ Help police I found this man in a alley tied up with a 16 year old girl with bruises covering all over her here this is the address XX-XX-XX.” She had abruptly hung up before the operator could ask her any questions.”
Mitsuki voice now her normal gruffness had said “Now that’s how you do it.” They had stayed there until they could hear sirens in the distance but then quickly left for the police to deal with the man.
Once they had gotten far away from where they just were Bakugou asked. “ How the fuck can you do that with your voice.”
“Too many years of customer service. You have to be always peppy .” Mitsuki said they had both grimmest they had seen how that can drain a person.
But after that they had decided to called it quits for the night they had both still had school and work in the morning so it would be a good thing to head back. After Bakugou showered he had lain down and immediately pasted out and let his dreams take over.
Bakugou had missed Izuku his Izuku the one pushed to his limit to many times but they had grown close after a lot of trauma. Sho in his dream His Izuku comes back to him his arms were scarred because of the reproduction of using all for one in life or death situations too many times.
“Hey Izu,” the izuku across from him smiled it was just the two of them in this dream state he knows that he should be grateful but he missed the rest of 1-A two as much as he had said he hated them at first he had grow to love every one of them.
He missed the way that the so called bakusquad had pulled him down from his room to play game or just hang out talk about stupid things that had made him forget about what had happened to the class even if it was just a little bit. He missed the way that after classes most the time Iida and Yaoyorozu would hold a study session that anyone could join in the common rooms. He missed making food with Sato, and so much more.
“Hey Katsuki,” the fake Izuku said he didn’t care that this was probably just his mind making this up to keep him sane. He told the fake Izuku everything at the end of the day how he apologized to this Izuku how he started the plan and how patrol went, and how him and his mom took the girl to the homeless shelter.
He had so much to do but for now he would talk to the fake Izuku until his alarm would blare in his ears but for now he would just talk.
