Izuku hummed as he sat on the playground, he mumbled to himself as he looked at the many sketches in his notebook. Katsuki sat sext to him biting on a plastic straw from a juice box and he looks at the other with a slight huff as he took the notebook from him and he studied the many images on it ” mm what the hell are you mumbling about now, have you finished making my hero costume?” The ten-year-old blond asks as he looks at the page and he puffed out his cheeks seeing it was just a page on crimson riot.
” idiot” he murmurs turning to his page and he hands it back to the boy ” work on that dumbass!” He says as he ruffled his hair a bit and the green-haired boy whined a bit in response as he fixed his hair.
” I already worked on your page and I made some new cool things I think could work with your quirks’ he murmurs as he looks at him and he smiled as he started to mumble and the blond looked at him with an annoyed look. Every day after school they would make their way to the back of the park over a log bridge to Katsuki’s training area where he practiced using his quirk. Izuku would sit there and take notes happily as well as work on small gadgets that could be used.
They weren’t the best since a ten-year-old couldn’t get the most high-class materials but he went dumpster diving and he could make some pretty neat stuff. He made a robot once that could be controlled with a game console and he had also made his own headset so he could talk to Katsuki from far away without a phone.
They currently sat against the wall at recess, kids played four square and ran around chasing each other. Sometimes he wished Hitoshi was at school with him but he went to another school. It wasn’t fair, his big brothers really was his best friend but you shouldn’t tell Katsuki that because he would get mad and say you couldn’t be friends with your siblings.
” shut up Deku your mumbling again,” he says and Izuku only smiled as he heard the teacher call his name and he saw his papa standing at the door with a smile and holding his backpack. ” your dad is here,” he says and Izuku nodded letting Katsuki help him up and he smiled. ” see you nerd,” he says as he ran off to play and Izuku made his way over to Hizashi.
” Hi papa” he smiled as he hugged his dad and took his backpack ” do I have a doctor’s appointment today? I thought it was tomorrow, ” he says as they started to walk to the car.
” yes you do, and Hitoshi is in the car” he murmurs ” he got in a bit of a fight at school,” he says as he looks at him and sighed ” don’t ask about it he’s not in a good mood and we are going to wait for dad to get home to talk to him,” he says. Hitoshi got in a fight? Mild-mannered shy Hitoshi got into a fight? What could that have possibly been about?
He got helped into the back of the car and he shifted the leg braces so they could bend that the knee and he could sit down comfortably. He then looked over at his brother who was looking out the window and Izuku’s eyes widen. He had a black eye and some smeared blood under his nose meaning it had been bleeding. He didn’t say anything though and the ride was quiet as they made their way to the doctor.
The doctor wasn’t anything different, his leg reflexes didn’t work as usual. His doctor was this older man, he was short and had a funny mustache.
Izuku’s main goal was to get into the support course and make himself some braces that were capable of walking normally, crouching, and even shuttle enough to wear underpants without making his pants lumpy.
When he got home he was told to go to his room and do his homework. But he listens by the door and he peaked out. This is what he picked up. Hitoshi had been at his desk doing work and some boys in his class had started to tease him, it started as only him but then they started to talk about his family and make fun of his brother and he punched the guy and there was a fight. The teacher had suspended Hitoshi whereas the other kid only got a slap on the wrist. Hitoshi was still in trouble even though what he did wasn’t even all that bad but had been taught that he shouldn’t fight for any reason.
When he came to bed that night Izuku looked at his brother and he smiled softly. ” Hitoshi, ” he says and his brother looked at him with a slight hum.
” what is it?” He asks and Izuku shifted slightly hopping out of bed and he wobbled over to the other boy’s bed and he sat down looking at him and he picked up peanuts holding the cat on his lap.
” did you win the fight?” He asks and Hitoshi smiled a bit and rolled his eyes but he nodded his head and he pulled the other down so they were both laying in bed.
” yeah I did, ” he says and Izuku smiled happily.
” that’s good,” he says
Inko held her stomach as she looks at the doctor, she was seven months pregnant by this point, her green hair fell against her shoulders as she looked at the clipboard in her lap. ” you want me to sign away his quirk” she says as she looks at the two men in the room in shock. ” his quirk?” He asks again because she must be reading this wrong.
” yes, a small price to pay for a safe delivery, ” the doctor says, Inko was trying to be the best mother she could be, she had no money, she didn’t drink or smoke but her baby had a birth defect, he would live last three if she didn’t have this done. They couldn’t even promise her she would live, but she wanted what was best for her child.
” what does his quirk have to do with him living?” She asks as she pressed her lips together.
” it doesn’t but do you want the child to live in pain for a few short years, all the money and the appointments,” the man said, ” all we want is his quirk, no money, we are delivering the baby and are making sure everything goes well aren’t we?” He says and she nodded as she looks at the screen seeing the baby.
” okay…” she says as she signed the agreement papers ” and you will help take care of him?” She asks and the man nodded his head.
” of course “
