Chapter Text
For Shouta Aizawa, that particular Sunday day had been…rather boring! Which for him was a good thing! It meant his students were staying in line and that his resident pain in the ass, Midoriya, had not broken a bone! It was a good day, a great day even! But it also meant his gremlins were being quiet… too quiet . It made Shouta suspicious. Made him wonder what they were up to…
He should probably check on them…
But he wanted to relish this painfully average day a little longer.
There Shouta was, sitting in the teachers lounge with the other teachers. He was grading papers as he dreaded coming up to Mineta’s paper. Why he lets that grape kid stay was beyond him, but he supposed Mineta was making strides in being better. Regardless of all that, he was just doing his job when it happened.
The thing that nearly had him put in his one week-notice and never look back. The light that broke through the sky and had everyone gasping, even he let out a gasp of surprise as he quickly jumped and his hand had bumped his coffee mug and spilled the coffee all over the floor. The light was beyond bright as it made Shouta put his hand in front of his face to try and block it out as it hurt to even look at.
Then, as quickly as it had come it was gone. “What the hell?” Nemuri had been the first to whisper in shock. Shouta stepped over his fallen coffee mug and walked up to the nearest window. Everything looked fine outside. He was facing the dorms and saw a few students looking confused. Hitoshi was amongst these students and it looked like he had fallen over as he quickly looked around in alarm and was trying to steady himself. Shouta tilted his head at this because Hitoshi looked off and he just couldn’t place his finger on why . In the end he didn’t think too hard about it as he turned away from the window. It’s probably because of how far Hitoshi was from the window, no doubt.
“Hm. Must have just been a quirk accident?” Shouta wondered as he walked back towards his fallen coffee mug and picked it up. “Still… Powerloader?”
“Hm?”
“What has Hatsume been doing?”
“ Shit! ” Powerloader was up and out of his seat in seconds and out the door.
“Hopefully, nothing bad will come from this.” Shouta sighed and grabbed a towel to suck up the spilt coffee on the floor.
“I’m sure it’s nothing.” Hizashi grinned at Shouta. “Probably just Hatsume testing out a new ‘baby’.”
“You’re probably right,” Shouta hummed as he sat in his chair and went back to grading. “Let’s see, where was I?”
And that peaceful day would then end roughly thirty seconds later when the door to the faculty room was thrown open. “Is everyone alright!?” Came a voice that sounded familiar but didn’t match how Shouta knew it from.
Izuku should have known nothing good would have come from helping Hatsume. There he was, jogging with Iida having a perfectly normal day when Hatsume came out of nowhere, grabbed him, and hauled him away from Iida. He had tried to get away from the girl and her crazy antics but there was nothing he could do when she turned and said “I need your help.”
Izuku had sighed and waved goodbye to Iida. Iida just looked thankful it wasn’t him she hauled away.
“Alright, what do you need?” He had asked her once they were inside of the lab.
Hatsume was grinning as she slapped a machine. “I made this baby! This baby can change everything !” She told him with glee as she then grabbed Izuku’s hands and yanked him towards it.
“Okay…what does it do?” Izuku asked as he inspected the machine. It was pretty big as it sat in the corner and was hooked to machines as it was whirling.
“This baby can tell me exactly what you’ll need in regards to your quirk!” She told him. “All it needs is a sample of your DNA, like a hair or some blood, and it’ll read your quirk and should tell me just what you need!”
“I see and why can’t you test it with your own DNA?” Izuku asked.
“Because I have everything I need already! You don’t!”
Izuku wanted to argue, but he stopped himself and then shrugged. “You know what? I can’t argue with that. Alright, here.” Izuku reached up and grabbed a hair. He plucked it with ease and handed it off to Hatsume. Hatsume looked like she was handed the world as she was beaming at the tiny hair in both of her hands.
“You won’t regret this! Like I said, I’m changing everything with this baby.” She then turned and hurried to the machine. She pulled on a level that was sticking up and then pressed a button that was hidden on the side. The machine whirled loudly as it came to life. Hatsume stood next to Izuku and she was pumping her fist up and down.
Then it started to light up around Izuku’s hair. Izuku tilted his head as the light started getting brighter and brighter and numbers started to flash rapidly on the screen. Different numbers, almost like a code.
“Geez…” Izuku grunted as he tried to block the light out and Hatsume was doing the same.
“It’s—” Hatsume winced as she had to shut her eyes. “It’s got a few kinks to work out!” She suddenly yelled as the whirling of the machine started growing louder and louder.
“What?!” Izuku yelled to her as he couldn’t hear over the whirling.
“I said—” Then the light got so blinding and the ground started to quake under them while the machine thrashed.
“Hatsume! Turn it off!” Izuku yelled and he activated blackwhip ready to turn the level upwards hoping that may help, but it wouldn’t be needed because soon the machine died. As in it blew up with a kabang!
Izuku was thrown through the door with Hatsume and both of them groaned as the smell of smoke filled the air. Izuku looked up and saw breasts right in his face. “Hatsume…”
“Yeah?” Hatsume panted heavily as she looked behind her at the destroyed lab.
“I don’t think it worked.”
“No, I don’t think it did…”
“Hatsume?”
“Yeah?”
“Can you please get your breasts out of my face?”
They got off of one another and Izuku blinked as he saw the damage done to the lab. There were tiny fires everywhere along with smoke and just a big black cinder that was once her machine. Hatsume put her hand on her face and shook her head. “Powerloader is going to mount my head on the wall for this one.”
“Do you need help cleaning up?”
“...Yeah…” She sighed and hung her head.
Hitoshi Shinsou’s day was painfully average, which was nice all things considered. He had woken up bright eyed and bushy tailed and rolled over to look at his best friend. Izuku was sleeping peacefully and Hitoshi reached over and touched Izuku’s head.
“Mrp!” Izuku woke up and his ears twitched; he looked at Hitoshi and started to purr.
“Morning, Mushroom.” He greeted his beloved best friend, and cat.
“Mrrrp!” Izuku yawned loudly, he opened his mouth and his barbed tongue rolled out of his mouth.
Izuku’s stretch was big as he dipped his back down and brought his rump in the air. His long green and black tail curled around his legs briefly before his tail lashed out and he sat prim and proper. Izuku then started to groom himself by licking his paw and swiping it over his ear.
Hitoshi sat up and stretched his arms over his head, as he did this his owl wings also stretched out to their fullest. He grunted and then smacked his lips together. “Okay, let’s get this day started.” He got up and went to his clothes. He felt rather pretty today so it was decided he’d wear the girl’s uniform, with leggings as it was getting chilly out with winter coming around the corner. Hitoshi was quiet as he stepped into his uniform. Once he was in uniform he turned around, grabbed his socks, put those on, and then put on his chunky heeled boots. By this point Izuku had finished his morning grooming session and patted up to Hitoshi who was sitting on the bed.
“Today is going to be a good day, Mushroom.” Hitoshi said as he grabbed Izuku’s harness. “A really good day. A full day actually, first I have school, obviously. Then, after school I’m going flying with Papa, you can come too of course, but you know what that means.”
Izuku pulled a face expressing his displeasure. Yeah, he never liked having to be strapped into the baby carrier or wearing goggles. “That’s fair, you can stay here if you don’t want to be in the air.”
Izuku liked that idea a lot better, maybe if he was lucky he could sucker Bakugo into making him some dinner. His mouth watered at the thought of Bakugo’s cooking.
Izuku stepped into his harness and Hitoshi strapped him in and tightened the harness. “Okay! You’re good to go, Buddy.” Hitoshi then picked Izuku up by his under arms and put him on his shoulder. Izuku was a heavy one, nearly fifteen pounds! But Hitoshi was used to his weight by this point in his life. Izuku looked at Hitoshi, shut his eyes, and purred deeply as he looked at Hitoshi.
Now that they were both ready to go, Hitoshi and Izuku were out the door together. Hitoshi bounded down stairs towards the battle zone that was the kitchens. It was lively with twenty students competing for the appliances to make their breakfast. Hitoshi avoided all the crowds by grabbing a power bar from the cabinet and going about his day—
“ Halt! ” Iida called in a powerful voice from across the kitchen. This made everyone stop, not just Hitoshi. Twenty sets of eyes were on Iida at that moment. The boy blushed, turned red, and then pointed a hand directly at Hitoshi. “That is not a good breakfast option!”
“It’s a protein bar.” Hitoshi huffed a little. “About as good of a breakfast as any, in my opinion.”
“That is a protein bar! It is full of trans fats and saturated fats! It’s good for exercising but not good for the most important meal of the day, Hitoshi!” Iida argued loudly. So loudly that Neito, who was standing next to Iida, winced .
Neito gave a groan and turned towards Hitoshi. “Please get something better so that the loud mouth here can stop yelling in my ear! ” Neito then turned to yell at Iida, which in turn caused Iida to jump back in alarm.
“This is my normal talking voice!” Iida argued.
“Inside voice! INSIDE VOIC-C-CE! ” Neito then had Iida in a headlock as he shook him vigorously.
Hitoshi laughed as he opened his protein bar and then took a bite as he walked away and left Iida to deal with Neito.
“Mmm, Chocolate.” Hitoshi hummed as continued to eat his breakfast while he walked up to the door, ready to get to class. When he got to the door he saw his boyfriend, Fumikage Tokoyami, standing there waiting for him. Hitoshi smiled as he walked up to Fumikage. At this, Dark Shadow poked out of her host's body and slithered over to Hitoshi. The quirk then reached out and hugged Hitoshi.
“Ready?” Hitoshi asked as he threw the protein bar wrapper away in the nearest trash can.
Fumikage nodded and Hitoshi took his hand and the two of them walked out, ready to go to class. They made it maybe ten feet out the door before someone called to them. “Hey! Wait up!” Both stopped and turned to see Toga running up to them. The girl was in 1-B after Vlad took her under his wing, and of course after she got her quirk back from a manic nomu.
Toga giggled and was grinning showing off her sharp teeth. Hitoshi’s eyes lingered on those fangs, they always did. Toga reached up and pet Izuku. “He’s so cute!” She cooed as she then scratched under his chin and Izuku let out a soft purr at this attention.
“Yeah, he is.” Hitoshi smiled and Toga started to walk backwards so she was facing Hitoshi.
“Sooooo….” She started slowly and Hitoshi knew instantly that she wanted something from him. “A little birdie told me that you might be flying today after class!”
Hitoshi only looked at her and just gave a soft sigh. “Just say you want to join and you want my blood.”
She was grinning . “Is that a yes?” She asked as she eagerly jumped in anticipation.
Hitoshi rolled his eyes. “Fine. We’ll go to Recovery Girl after school to have her put some of my blood in a vial for you.”
“Yus!” Toga jumped with joy. “You’re the best!”
“You have room for one more?” Fumikage asked.
“Oh! Of course! We always have room for you!” He chirped and he was sure Fumikage was blushing.
“You two are so cute!” Toga giggled as she reminded them that she was still there. They looked at her and Hitoshi only smiled as he shook his head.
He was going to say something to Toga, but he was cut off. Not by Toga but by a light. An ungodly bright light that made everyone stop and he was sure he heard Dark Shadow scream at such a brightness. Hitoshi winced and tried to block the light out with his hand.
“What the hell!?” Fumikage yelled as he nearly dropped to the ground and let go of Hitoshi’s hand.
The sound of Izuku yowling is what got Hitoshi reaching out just in time to snatch his cat’s vest as Izuku was being dragged away from him. Hitoshi felt like he was playing tug o’ war with an invisible force.
Then, the force was tired of playing tug o’ war with Hitoshi because in one big movement Hitoshi was yanked off of the ground. The feeling he felt while in the light was just… fuzzy . He felt like when his leg or arm fell asleep, but all over his body. Yet, that didn’t stop him from wrapping both arms around Izuku to protect him from any sort of impact. There really wasn’t much of an ‘impact’ in all honesty. One minute Hitoshi couldn’t see as it felt like she was tripping then—
He was… in front of UA? Like nothing had happened? Hitoshi looked down at Izuku and saw Izuku was all puffed up, his fur high in the air as his tail was big and bushy. Hitoshi’s wings were completely out and also bristled. “Whew!” He gave himself a good shake and his wings furled behind his back after that. “Are you okay?” He asked Izuku and Izuku looked at him, his eyes looked like they were bugging out of his skull.
He nodded as there were a scant few people around them. People that weren’t in their class and didn’t need to know that Izuku could talk through his collar. Those people, however, were just staring at Hitoshi in confusion as they passed him. Hitoshi paid them no mind as he put Izuku back on his shoulders. “Where did Fumikage and Toga go?” He wondered out loud as they were just there but now? “I hope that light didn’t do anything to them!” Hitoshi gasped as he thought about it.
Izuku’s tail lashed out as he looked around as if he were expecting something. Then with no warning he jumped off of Hitoshi’s shoulder. “Mushroom?” Hitoshi asked as he watched his cat start walking towards the dorms. “You want to go back to the dorms?”
Izuku looked at him and nodded before he bounded off. “Oh—...” Hitoshi almost followed.
Almost .
Instead he stopped, and looked up towards the UA building. “Yeah, you go ahead, I’ll go and talk to one of the fosters, hopefully they can make heads or tails of what just happened!” He called back towards Izuku who was trotting away. And that was the plan! Until as he was walking up to the school itself he heard a scared little gasp.
Hitoshi didn’t know why that caused him to stop. He didn’t even know why it caused him to slowly turn, but it did. He turned his whole body towards the sound and he blinked as he was staring at…
Well, under normal circumstances he might have thought he was looking at Nise, the crazed nomu that not only gifted Hitoshi his wings, but also stole Toga’s quirk. Nise had the body of Izuku Midoriya, literally. He was the corpse of Izuku. Was . Nise has been dealt with, thankfully.
However; Nise this was not . Why? Because again, Nise had been dealt with and was back in the ground for starters. Two, the person who had gasped at him was clearly a girl . A girl who looked an awful lot like Nise, who was the body of Izuku Midoriya, therefore this girl looked like…Izuku. She was clearly alive by the flush of her cheeks and the life in her eyes. They stared at each other for a long time before her face became angry and her nostrils flared out. It was like Hitoshi had done something to her personally to make her angry.
She was dressed oddly for a school day. She was dressed in All Might sleeping shorts that rested just above her thighs and a white tank top. Hitoshi was also painfully aware of the fact that she was not wearing a bra.
“What do you think you’re playing at, huh, Shinsou!?” She demanded as she stormed up to him and then had the gull to poke him right in the chest.
“Excuse me?” He demanded right back at her, matching her exact tone. “Who even are you?”
The girl scoffed. Then before he could even blink he was slapped . His head whipped to the side as his face stung from the harsh slap the girl had given him. “You’re such an asshole ! I don’t know what games you think you’re playing but I’m sick of you toying with me! I’m going straight to Aizawa about you even being out and about! You know you’re not allowed near the school!”
“What the fuck are you on ! Aizawa is my father !” He yelled at her and her cheeks stayed flushed that bright red.
“What kind of weird game are you playing with me!”
“I don’t know you!”
“ Uh …”
Both of them stopped their argument and turned towards the new voice. It was like someone dumped ice water down Hitoshi’s back as he was looking at another Izuku lookalike. This one looked more like Nise, but was still not him as Nise was fourteen when he died and this Izuku was not only older, but buffer and his hair was different. Cut into an undercut that showed the top of his messy curls. He was also dressed in a tank top and shorts. Just…Boxer shorts like he was getting ready for bed, the same as the girl .
What the fuck was going on?
The boy looked at the girl and his eyebrows knitted together then that confusion did not wane as he looked at Hitoshi. “Hicchan? What are you wearing? And… When did you get those wings?” He asked.
What the fuck was going on?!
Then Hitoshi heard it, all the way from the dorms. “HITOSHI HELP ME!” The others had clearly heard it just the same, but Hitoshi didn’t give them anymore peace of mind. His best friend needed him, he opened his wings and he was off .
For Mushroom he wished he could say he had a better experience when he got back to the dorms. He just had an urge to go back to see the others. Because he had a feeling deep inside that something wasn’t right. He at first scratched at the door, but nobody seemed to have noticed him. He could hear them inside. So, he started whining. He let out pitiful mews that turned into louder pitiful meows and that got someone's attention.
“—I think there’s a cat—” The door was then opened by Denki. The boy was immediately looking down at Mushroom. “Hey! There is!” Mushroom lashed his tail as he let himself into the dorms. “Uh—” Denki stepped to the side and Mushroom was staring at several students who were just looking at him in surprise as he stepped in.
He could see Ochako, Mina, Momo, Iida and— that was as far as he got before he was suddenly oohed at and several of the girls rushed him.
“Whoa!” Izuku yelped when he was suddenly grabbed by Ochako.
“Oh my god! He’s adorable!” Ochako cooed as she held him close. Then, he was snatched just as quickly by Mina.
“Look at him!” Mina held him up for all to see. “He’s green! Oh my goodness! He must be someone’s pet!”
“Excuse me!?” He tried to struggle but he was grabbed by Iida.
“We have to return him to his rightful owner!” Iida chopped a hand wildly around at the others.
“I think it’s on the harness! Who does he belong to, Iida?” Momo asked as she approached him and gave him a few pets.
“Uh— ” Izuku was about to activate the collar but he wasn’t give the chance as Iida moved him to look at the harness. “Guys?” It just came off as a mew to them.
“Ah! It’s Shinsou’s cat!” Iida declared.
“Shinsou would have such a rockin’ cat!” Jirou said—
Wait? Jirou!?
Mushroom’s head whipped towards her and she actually jumped in surprise at this.
Jirou was arrested because she was a traitor. Why was she just sitting in the dorms?!
“Animals are not allowed in the dorms! Shinsou shouldn’t be allowed this animal!” Iida argued and Mushroom’s ears went back.
“Koda has his rabbit, Iida.” Sero was quick to point out as he walked up to Mushroom and leaned down so they were eye to eye. His smile was quick to fade as he shivered visibly. “Urg… His eyes are kinda creepy. Creepy and familiar…”
“Hm?” Iida turned Mushroom around so they were now eye to eye. He too bristled visibly. “I think you have some merit to that.”
“Give me that thing—” Bakugo came out of nowhere as he snatched Mushroom harshly out of Iida’s hands. “This fleabag doesn’t belong here and I don’t want Mindfuck hunting us for sport because he can’t keep this stupid thing hidden. And we sure as hell aren’t getting in trouble for it! Out .” Bakugo then turned towards the doors.
“No, wait! ” Mushroom had so many questions! This wasn’t right! He quickly reached a paw up and tapped his collar, springing it to life and making Bakugo stop. “Wait!” He yelled through the translator and Izuku was tossed . He was tossed like he was diseased as everyone gasped.
Izuku landed on his feet, naturally, and turned to face the others. Their faces were all shocked . “What is going on ?!” He demanded as he faced them. “It’s me! Mushroom!”
“Whoa…” Satou whispered as Mushroom was now a spectacle.
“That’s…” Kirishima was then the next to approach as he got down so they were level. “So manly … Shinsou must have a really smart cat!”
“Stop it! ” Izuku swatted at Kirishima. “What is wrong with you guys! It’s… It’s…” Movement had caught his eye as someone came from the kitchen and Mushroom felt his eyes go wide as his ears went low as he stared at…
Himself? But…
This him was…different. Not like Nise. Nothing like Nise. This Izuku was alive and muscular. He was freshly showered and smelled as such. They locked eyes and the drink that Izuku was holding was dropped as he gasped. The shattering of the cup caused others to gasp and turn towards this Izuku.
Mushroom felt his fur rise as he started to scurry back all while hissing. This hissing echoed through the translator. He stood on his toes and his tail curled fully around his legs. He backed up fully until he hit a wall. His mind kept flashing back to Nise, the crazed Nomu, but he knew this wasn’t Nise! That didn’t stop him from freaking out .
“Deku, what the fuck is going on?” Bakugo demanded.
“I—” Deku had also tried to back away from Mushroom and bumped into a chair that sent him to the floor. “I—!” He gasped loudly, unable to let out a single word in his complete and utter shock. Mushroom looked towards the still open door and decided ‘fuck it.’
He ran. He had to get back to Hitoshi! Something was clearly wrong .
“Oh no!” Mina whined as Mushroom made his escape, or at least he would have. If something had shot out of the open door and grabbed him by his harness. This something was black and thick and was reeling him back. Mushroom tried to sink his claws into the ground but the ground was made of brick and did nothing to stop him from being pulled back in.
Mushroom felt himself start to panic as he looked back at the other him, at Deku, who clearly had a quirk as he was using this quirk to pull him back. “HITOSHI! HELP ME!” He caterwauled for his friend to come and save him. He didn’t know what was going to happen to him and he only had one life in this body! He couldn’t start over again! Not so soon!
Then, like a fish caught on a hook, Mushroom was yanked back full force and brought right into Deku’s arms. Mushroom tried to struggle, tried to claw, and bite, but this Izuku didn’t mind or care about that as he looked at Mushroom.
Mushroom finally stopped trying to bite him as he shyly looked at Deku.
There was silence in the dorms as nobody spoke for a second, it would be Sero that broke the silence. “Oh my god…it’s the eyes. His eyes are the same as Midoriya’s!”
“What is the meaning of this?” Deku finally asked and Mushroom flattened his ears against his head.
“I’d ask you the same thing, Nise! ” He hissed as his tail lashed.
“Nise?” Deku looked shocked at being called a fake.
“Unhand me! I am Izuku Midoriya! Not you!” Mushroom yelled loudly as he tried to struggle again.
“Did he just say he’s Izuku!?” Ochako gasped as her jaw dropped. “You’re a cat!”
“I died as Izuku Midoriya! I came back as a cat!” He yowled.
“That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!” Iida chopped his hand at Mushroom.
“What do you mean you died? Huh?” Bakugo demanded as he got right into Mushroom’s face. He was snarling and looking ready to lunge.
“HITOSHI!” Mushroom was on the verge of tears as he called for his best friend again. “HI-TO-SHI! ”
His prayers would be answered less than a second later. A blur came through the door and Deku was quick to dodge right as Hitoshi tried to kick him in the face. Hitoshi would miss and he hit the ground. He was up just as quick though and tried to attack again by springing up and going for another well placed kick, but Deku was somehow quicker and dodged again.
“Get your goddamn hands off of him!” Hitoshi roared and he reached, grabbing Mushroom’s harness and yanking his beloved cat right out of Deku’s hands. He then flew up and perched on the island counter leading into the kitchen. His wings were out fully as he glared at everyone. Hitoshi then put Mushroom on his shoulder to keep him protected. “The next person to touch him is losing their fucking fingers! ”
Mushroom was quaking on Hitoshi’s shoulders. “I got worried there for a minute.” Mushroom told him.
Hitoshi was looking around frantically as he panted heavily and wiped the sweat from his brow. Everyone was on edge now as they debated on their next move, on what they wanted to do and if this situation could be solved.
“Now…” Hitoshi was the one to speak next. “I don’t know what’s going on…all I know is something weird has been happening…” He told them all and he reached up to touch Mushroom.
“I’ll say.” Bakugo’s hands were glowing as he stared at Hitoshi with a murderous intent. Hitoshi didn’t look the least bit scared. “Let’s start with that cat claiming to be Izuku Midoriya, and then move on to you posing at Shinsou from gen-ed, yeah?”
Hitoshi’s brow knitted as he turned towards Mushroom. “You told them you were Izuku?”
“What else was I supposed to do when there’s well… that !” He argued while gesturing towards Deku. “I didn’t know what else to do, Hitoshi! He’s not Nise!”
“Yeah, I noticed that too.” Hitoshi scratched at his face. “Neither were the others.”
“OTHERS?!” Mushroom yelled in surprise.
“What do you mean by others? What is going on?” Deku asked as he dared to take another step towards Hitoshi. Hitoshi glared at him and took a step back on the counter.
“How would we know! One minute we were walking to class then a light sucked us in! Now everything is weird!” Hitoshi hissed. “Like her !” He pointed at Jirou and both she and Denki tensed. “Why is she here?”
“Because she goes to school here, like the rest of us?” Denki put himself between Jirou and Hitoshi.
“Really?” Hitoshi asked. “Because last I remembered she got arrested because she betrayed our class and was in with the villains.” He hissed.
Jirou’s face turned red. “I would never ! Who are you to accuse me of such things!” She yelled at him. “He’s clearly crazy! Has anyone called Aizawa yet?!”
“That’s funny—” There were several gasps as the Izuku from earlier. The one in his boxers made himself known as he stepped through the doorway. He too looked on edge as he scanned the room. “Because last I recalled, Aoyama was the one betraying our class!”
“Who are you!?” Bakugo yelled.
“Izuku Aizawa.”
“What the fuck do you mean ‘Aizawa’?” Bakugo almost seemed like he didn’t want to ask.
“What the fuck do you think that means !?” This Izuku demanded right back, his tone sounding different as the air about him changed. “ It means I was adopted by Aizawa, you dipshit —That’s enough!” Izuku yelled at himself ?
If Bakugo didn’t want to throw hands he sure as hell wanted to now, as his air became sinister. “What the fuck did you call me?” he asked as he gnashed his teeth and hot air steamed out of his nose like an angry bull.
“ Dip. Shit. Did I fucking stutter? ” His eyes then literally turned red. As in they went from vibrant green to a deep crimson in a blink. His tone almost became mocking as he put his hand to his mouth like he was trying not to laugh. “ Then again, I forgot, I need to dumb things down for you, Kacchan.”
Jaws were on the floor . Even Hitoshi’s and Mushroom’s were dropped at this blatant disrespect.
“What the fuck is happening !” Then the girl was back. As she was standing behind this other Izuku. She let out a scared noise as her face was still flushed a bright red. “Seriously! What is happening ?! All I wanted to do was lay down for the night and now it’s day and—and—!” She couldn’t even finish her sentence.
“Er…” Hitoshi stood up now as he folded his wings. At this everyone had turned back to him. He looked at the three Izuku’s and then to Mushroom. “...I think something… happened to all of us?” He asked and stepped down from the island and onto the floor. “I mean, I was on my way to school when a light took both me and Mushroom here… and you mentioned just wanting to lay down, right miss—”
The girl went behind the other Izuku, using him as an unwitting shield. She glared at Hitoshi as her shoulders tensed visibly. “Don’t play all innocent, Shinsou! If you take another step towards me, you’ll be violating the restraining order!” She hissed between clenched teeth.
“Ma’am, for the last time, I don’t know you! ” He yelled at her.
“Can we all just calm down?!” Deku yelled and that got their attention. Everyone looked towards him and he sucked in a deep breath, ran his fingers through his hair, before exhaling. “What….is going on ?” He demanded lowly and slowly. He then put his hands together like he was praying and pointed his hands towards Hitoshi and Mushroom. “Let’s start with you. Are you Hitoshi Shinsou?”
“Yes.” Hitoshi stated firmly and he grabbed Mushroom and held him by his under arms so Deku could look at him. “And yes, this is Izuku Midoriya. No, we are not pulling your leg.”
“... Okay .” Deku looked like he was on the verge of a mental break as his eyes went white. Something Hitoshi had only seen his cat do once maybe twice. “And he mentioned dying to get that body?”
Mushroom gave Hitoshi a little struggle and at this, Hitoshi put him down on the ground, but close to where if needed he could snatch his cat back up again. Mushroom sighed softly and this sigh echoed with the translator. “Yes, but understand this. From what we know, Izuku Midoriya is dead . Nobody is really supposed to know that I’m well… cat . Before anyone asks. I died and I simply woke up like this.”
“...Alright that’s… morbid .” Then Deku turned towards the door where Izuku Aizawa and the girl were. The girl still using this Izuku as a shield. Something Aizawa seemed to have taken note of as he then said:
“You’re not a hero. Are you?”
“Bite me. I’m training.” She would then hiss.
“I wouldn’t say those words around me. I have a quirk. He loves to bite people.” There was almost a bit of sadistic glee in those words. Ones that did not go over this poor girl’s head as she let go of him pretty quickly after that.
“Eep!”
Deku shook his head slowly as he then looked at his friends, who looked to be just as confused as him, if not more. “Has someone contacted Aizawa yet?” He finally asked and several people nodded.
“I think he’s busy. So…they’re not Toga?” Ochako asked, clearly still very wary.
“Who?” The girl asked almost innocently.
“Someone you’re lucky you haven’t met.” Aizawa I— yeah that seemed like a good placeholder name for now— grumbled.
“Well that’s not fair.” Hitoshi put his hands on hips as he said this matter of factly to Aizawa I. That caught several people off guard, still he continued. “Toga is a lovely girl. A little eccentric yes…got punched maybe once or twice for doing things without thinking, but a lovely girl regardless.”
There was a silence…
“Are you sure he’s not Toga?” Ochako then asked as she gestured towards Hitoshi. This made Hitoshi, and Mushroom, snort.
“Okay, okay .” Deku made a motion with his hands as he spoke again. “Let’s try this another way. What happened to you all before you were here ? Someone mentioned a light?”
“Yes!” Hitoshi yelled. “I was walking to class when a light came out of nowhere and took us both away!”
“Hah! Consider yourself lucky!” The girl then spoke. “I was just getting cozy in my bed when a light took me away! I had literally just laid down then poof ! Here I am! It’s day and I’m in my sleeping clothes!”
“Yeah, that’s pretty much the same thing that happened to me.” Aizawa I confessed. “I had laid down with Sh—” He paused. “I had laid down with my partner … when a light came out of nowhere and next thing I know I’m staring at the bright sky in my boxers and tank top!”
“A light…” Deku suddenly made a noise like he was sucking on his teeth. “Oh no …” He whispered.
“Deku, do you know something?” Bakugo demanded as Deku started to mutter and mumble quickly and suddenly. Hitoshi was only able to make out a few scant words here and there “Machine, Light, and hair.” being those words.
However, Aizawa I on the other hand seemed to understand it all . “So, let me get this straight, yeah? Hatsume Mei made a machine? You agreed to help her and somehow this machine brought us all here ?” His tone had shifted again. It still had that fearful air about it that made Hitoshi’s feathers bristle and Mushroom stand on his toes as he skirted away from the boy.
“There was that light that came from the machine, but it makes no sense! The machine was supposed to analyze quirks!”
Aizawa I gave a mirthless laugh at this. “It did more than that.”
“Wait! Wait! Wait!” Iida yelled. “One: Your eyes flickering back and forth between green and red are distracting!” He pointed at Aizawa I. “Two: Are you implying that this machine Hatsume made… brought you all here from…another universe?”
Several gasps rang out because multi-dimension travel happening in an accident sounded insane!
Aizawa I smiled , but it was not a happy smile. It was one that Hitoshi had seen many times before from his own father. It was a sadistic gleeful smile. “One: Our eyes flicker back and forth because I’m Izuku’s quirk Nice to meet you all—er…again, I guess.— Yes. I’m the one that likes to bite people! Call me Cujo.” His nose scrunched almost cutely as he giggled. “When his eyes go red and tone changes it’s me speaking. We like to fight over control from time to time. Two: That is exactly what I’m saying. It’s like princess over there said—”
“Princess?” Ochako asked as she blushed a little at the name.
“— we can’t all be Toga, right? We’re not. I mean just look at us, we couldn’t be any more different from our counter-part over there! I mean one of us is a cat for crying out loud!” Cujo then gestured to Deku before gesturing towards Mushroom. “Don’t get me started on Toshichan. Our Hitoshi wouldn’t be caught dead in a skirt and those wings … I have to get a look at them!-Cujo! Focus.” Aizawa I came back with a headshake.
“What’s wrong with skirts?” Hitoshi asked as he looked at his skirt. “They’re comfortable! And what do you mean…get a look at my wings?” Hitoshi was getting Nise vibes from this guy and he wasn’t liking it.
Mushroom growled as his fur rose. Then he jumped up on to Hitoshi’s shoulders, never once taking his eyes off of Aizawa I.
“...” Deku looked thoughtful. “Then…if that may be the case…this is bad .”
“Why?” Tsu asked him while Deku continued to pace around.
“Because the machine broke .” He put both of his hands against his face. “It completely blew up!”
Oh. That was pretty bad, wasn’t it.
“...I can’t be stuck here!” The girl yelled loudly. “I—... I just can’t be!”
“I’ll…I’ll call Hatsume!” Deku took his phone out. “That’s exactly what I’ll do! She made the machine once, she can just make it again! Right?!”
Before Deku could bring up his contacts did Mr. Aizawa finally make his apparence and he… didn’t looked shocked. If anything he looked slightly exasperated upon seeing the new characters standing there.
“Old man!” Cujo happily called to the shock of everyone standing there. Even Hitoshi put his hand to his mouth. He would dream of ever, ever , calling his foster father ‘Old man.’
Aizawa’s head whipped to the side and his eyes turned a scarlet red as his hair rose. “You will never call me that again.” He hissed and both Izuku and Cujo shrunk away. This time they used the girl as a shield.
“Hmph!” The girl put her hands on her hips.
“You don’t look surprised? Why aren’t you surprised?!” Deku yelled loudly as his nervous energy could be felt by all.
Aizawa Shouta said nothing as he grabbed the other door to the dorms and opened it all the way.
There, stood yet another Izuku look alike. Only this one was different from the others.
For starters she was a woman, not a girl, but a fully grown woman. She was dressed in everyday clothes, a skirt, ruffled white top, pantyhose and heels . Her hair, the same curly mess all Izuku’s seemed to have, was probably about as long as Momo’s and put up into a high ponytail. Yet, surprisingly that’s not what shocked everyone. What shocked them was that she was holding hands with a toddler and— and — she clearly had a baby in a carrier on her chest. She looked at them all and she smiled .
“Oh my!” She gasped as she walked in like she owned the place. “You’re all so young!” She cooed.
Despite her looks she was clearly well-built and muscular. She also had scars. So many that Hitoshi felt for her.
“But where are my manners? I’m Izumi Shinsou.”
…Shin…
“SHINSOU!?” had been the gasp from everybody in that room.
“Oh yes! Hitoshi Shinsou is my husband! And these are our children! Hitomi here is only five! And this is little Nishimura!”
Hitomi looked almost identical to Hitoshi in every way there was. She had his hair, his tired eyes, and his nose. The only thing she had of Izuku—or Izumi in this case. Was one eye that was green. Yet… if Hitoshi looked just hard enough he could see Izuku’s sparkle behind those pupils as Hitomi looked at everything and everyone with a rapt interest.
Nishimura on the other hand was more mixed in his appearance for being just a baby. His hair was a curly mess that most definitely was starting to stick up on its own. He had his mothers big doe eyes but these were purple in color. He was also littered in freckles.
Aizawa I had the biggest reaction out of the bunch. He literally gagged and put his hand over his mouth. Hitoshi almost wanted to do the same thing, because well Izuku was a cat! At least to him anyways…
“You see, it’s quite odd…I had just finished doing a photoshoot and was walking to the car when a light came out of nowhere and took us away. I had assumed something bad had happened since we were transported to UA…gave everyone the shock when I ran up to the teachers lounge I’ll tell you that!” She laughed a nervous laugh as she looked at Aizawa out of the corner of her eye.
“Hmph.” The girl crossed her arms over her chest as she looked at her older counter part. This did not go unnoticed as Izumi looked towards her.
“Now, who have we here?” Izumi asked as she had to bend down to look at the girl.
“I’m Izumi Midoriya!” The girl introduced herself. “I wouldn’t be caught dead with Shinsou Hitoshi…” She said rather boldly as she then turned away from Izumi.
“ Ah . Izumi, huh? I suppose I’ll have to think of a different name to go by to avoid any confusion.”
“So…is that all of them?” Bakugo asked after a brief silence. “All of these… freaks .”
“Rude-Asshole.” Aizawa I then flipped Bakugo off.
“That’s what I’m praying for. For now, I suppose our best option is to find what did this and try and get them all home.” Aizawa told everyone. “So, just hang tight and…I guess entertain them all so they don’t run amok. This too many problem children to allow loose in the streets—” No sooner had he said that did his phone suddenly ring.
Aizawa turned away to answer it. “No worries, Mr. Aizawa! I can watch them!” Mrs. Shinsou said rather confidently. “We can all… get to know each other? ” She worded it like a question. But it wasn’t one. It was a demand posing as a question. She wanted to know about them, about their backstories and that honestly wasn’t a bad idea.
“...” There was a deep sigh from Aizawa’s soul as he hung his phone up. He then walked over to the wall and started to beat his head into it. “ Unbelievable .” He grumbled in english.
“There’s more, aren’t there?” Deku had been the one to ask.
“That was Tsukauchi… he’s trying to figure out why you’re running around smacking people with a baseball bat…” Aizawa grumbled. “Okay… I’ll be back. Mrs. Shinsou…if it’s not problem?”
“None at all!” She sat down firmly on the couch. Her daughter stayed by her feet while Nishimura let out a little whine.
“Alright. I’ll be back. You hellions stay in here!” Then he was off.
Mrs. Shinsou cooed at Nishimura to get him to settle down and it worked. “You know…” it was Mineta . Hitoshi’s eye twitched .
Aizawa I’s fist rose .
“If you want to breastfeed —” No hesitation, Mrs. Shinsou didn’t even drop her smile as she raised her right hand up and flicked a puff of air at him, sending the creep flying away from her and her children.
“Whoa.” Izumi whispered as she got a little closer to the woman. “That was… awesome.”
Mrs. Shinsou smiled and then patted the empty spot next to her. Izumi took this invite and soon so would Aizawa I as he sat next to Izumi. “So—”
The door to the dorms opened and everyone turned in alarm to see who had interrupted them. There stood yet another Izumi, or at least Hitoshi was guessing. Though she was different .
Unlike the others with wild green hair, her hair was blue . A light blue, a baby blue, but everything else about her stayed the same, minus a strong build. She was more slender and looked to be more feminine. “I—” The girl paused, her shoulders bristling. “I was told to come here by the principal…” She whispered as she stepped in.
“Ah, it seems there’s even more than we anticipated.” Deku whispered as he hung off of the arm of the couch. Everyone parted to allow this girl to come in, but she didn’t seem to want to come any closer. “Come in! It’s okay!” He urged her.
The girl stopped and wrung her hands against her skirt. It was a pleated skirt, but not school sanctioned as it was black in color. She looked so scared as she kept her head down and tried to make herself as small as possible. Mrs. Shinsou was gentle as she recognized the fear the poor girl clearly had. She grabbed the girl’s hand with both of hers. “Don’t worry, okay? We’re going to try and get you back home. I’m Izumi Shinsou, who are you?”
“...” A bit of life returned to the girl’s eyes as she looked at Mrs. Shinsou then down at her children. “I’m…Isao.” She introduced herself
“What a pretty name. Sit.”
Isao would sit and she would look a little more at ease.
Hitoshi sighed as he came over just the same, now that everyone seemed at least a bit more relaxed. He held Mushroom like one would a toddler. “This was not how I expected this day to go, Izuku.” He told his cat, which got Deku’s and Aizawa I’s attention respectfully.
“Tell me about it.” Mushroom responded.
“But we’re going to make the best of this I suppose. We have to…for my own sanity.”
