bakugo smirking :

This time she didn't trip on a loose stone as she walked up the path towards the doors. 

Testing was being held in the same rooms as before, just alphabetically split instead of by district.

Her room was N through Z, she had taken Nezu as her family name, it had felt right in a way that Midoriya never had. 

Her assigned desk was in the middle of a column but at the far left of the room, she walked down the center aisle taking note of the names she passed. Her steps stuttered as she passed Yamada Hizashi, she half hoped that it was Present Mic, the other half of her hoped it wasn't. 

Quickly shuffling away, Izumi took her seat and silently waited for the examiner to start the testing. 

The test was simple for Izumi, she knew it would be, it had been easy the first time as well. She had been the first one to finish, only taking up an hour of the two alloted. Sitting back in her chair and waiting she took the time to think over a few strategies that would be useful for the physical test. 

A loud bell broke her out of her thoughts, the other students started to groan, clothes shifted and shoes squeaked on the floor as they started to move around. 

"Students applying for general studies can go home, students applying for business have an hour break, students applying for support have a ninety minute break, and students applying for heroics should please make their way to the theatre." The teacher that had watched over them spoke, directing the students to where they should be. 

Izumi wasn't really paying attention as she walked down the hall towards the theatre, she knew the way without having to rely on the signs that had been posted. 

It was her lack of attention that had her smacking right into the back of another person, with a grunt at the impact she felt herself rebound off the person and falling backwards. 

Izumi felt lucky that she felt herself hit another person behind her as she fell backwards, until a semi familiar voice spoke. 

"Whoa there. I never thought I would have a pretty girl fall into my arms before I even became a hero." Izumi closed her eyes in resignation before she looked up to meet the lime green of who would one day be Present Mic. 

"Thanks for the catch." She says lightly, not bothering to even try to pick apart his words and ditangles herself from the blonds hands.

"I'm very sorry to have run into you." Izumi bows her head at the dark haired teen she had collided with. When she looked up to meet his eyes Izumi cursed the universe. 

"You need to work on your spatial awareness." A much younger Aizawa Shōta tells her. 

Her words are stuck in the back of her throat as dark eyes take her in from head to toe. Inspection done, he ignores the squawk from Yamada behind her at his rude words and turns on his heel. 

"Villain points aren't the only points." Izumi calls behind Aizawa, she has no idea why she even said that, just that it felt right. 

Yamada inhales a quick breath, and Izumi turns to look at him again. 

"Nezu Izumi, thank you again for catching me." Izumi introduces herself, she's a little annoyed at having to look up so far at the teen. 

"Yamada Hizashi!" He chirps as her, voice just shy of slipping into his quirk. 

Izumi nods at him, her face and body language carefully neutral. 

"Come on, we are gonna be late." Yamada says again when he gets no real reaction from her. 

Izumi falls into step with him as they restart their journey to the theatre. Yamada is nattering away beside her, he's talking about random things and Izumi is lost to most of it. 

Izumi breaks off from the blond teen as they enter the theatre, she takes a seat in the back and pulls out the slip of paper that had been on her desk to tell her what testing ground she would be on. 

"Welcome students!" Nezu's chipper greeting fills the room, it makes Izumi relax the last of the tension in her shoulders melting away. 

"For your physical exam you will be facing three types of robots, each worth between one and three points. You will have an hour to collect as many points as possible. At three quarters of an hour there will be a single robot released, this one will be zero points." Izumi takes a moment to look at the projection. 

Under the image of the robot is the number zero and a P.  The realization that the robot is 0P as in over powered makes Izumi break out in cackles. The whole room turns to her, she feels a blush rise on her cheeks and hunches down into her seat. 

Nezu claps once to get the attention back on him before he starts directing students out to the transport to get to their testing ground. 

As the group of hopefuls waits outside of the gate many clustering together to gossip Izumi makes her way to the starting line to stretch, she hadn't gotten full mastery of her whips yet, but she had good enough control of her electrokinesis that she would be able to drain the power from the robots. 

A hero that Izumi faintly recalls as FailSafe is standing on one of the pullers by the gate, Izumi takes in a deep breath just to steady herself. To her left she catches a flash of dark hair, she sends a little prayer into the universe that she wasn't in the same grouping as her ex sensei.

"Attention!" FailSafe's voice booms. He waits until everyone is clustered behind the starting line. "Begin." Is the next word from the hero's mouth, Izumi doesn't wait, she runs. 

Izumi knows that going for the center of the cityscape is going to get her caught up in a riot of people fighting to best one another. She takes a sharp turn down an ally and runs towards what would be the outskirts of the 'attack'. 

It takes her little time to manipulate the electricity in the robots, they shut down with little fanfare. She moves around spiraling inwards as she goes, stopping to pull people out of the way when they aren't paying enough attention to their surroundings. 

Izumi loses time, she's still aware of her surroundings, but it's not enough. 

The ground rumbles, the zero pointer is now in play.  

Izumi isn't really sure what happens, there is a flash of red, then gray, and she's under part of a building much like Uravity had been. 

"Fuck." Izumi scouts, she knows that the robot won't actually hurt her, but if she can get a brave soul some rescue points she will. "Help!"

She twists under the concrete, trying to figure out how to wiggle her way free. There's no chance, her left leg is completely pinned and she can feel the hot slick of blood on her skin. 

"Fucking…Help!" She called again,she knew that by how slick her left thigh was getting that she was losing more blood than was good for her. 

The quiet tap of shoes catches Izumi's attention, it's coming from the direction of her feet that the part of the building is blocking her from seeing. 

"My leg is pinned...I can feel blood...just... find a bar of some sort...lever the left side a little...find a rock to support it...and..pull me...out." Izumi pants, her sentence broken by her panic over the blood loss. 

The person she was just ordering around gave a short grunt, their footsteps moving away from her. 

Izumi is tracking the giant robot, it moves slower that the one she faced originally, by her estimation it will be moments from crushing her when time runs out. 

A slide of metal on cement alerts Izumi that her rescuer has gotten back, she finally looks at who it is and is somewhere between elated and horrified. 

Aizawa grunts as he pushes down on the rod he had found, an oddly square shaped chunk of debris at his feet. 

"Fucking run into me, then give criptic suggestions, and now needing rescue. What the fuck problem female?" Izumi catches Aizawa grumbling, she doesn't think she was supposed to. 

"Uh...hurry please?" She pleads. "I'm gonna pass out from blood loss soon." She warns quickly as Aizawa opens his mouth to most likely say something sarcastic. 

The piece of the building that's pinning her shifts, it hurts bad enough for Izumi to bite back a scream. The sound of stone on stone registers, and Izumi holds her hands above her head. 

no one :izuku walking into a ua meeting "hey dadmight, grampazu I'm going out with kacchan is that okay?"

ua staff shaking in fear :

nezu : of course! do you need money?

us staff shaking even faster now

Izuku : uh I'm okay gramps thanks tho! and yeah sure dad! I'll see yous later! bye senseis!

nezu and all might : bye izuku!

Izumi connected the other female quickly to Midnight, the R-rated hero. Internally Izumi was having a small fan girl moment, she never really got to interact with Midnight on a personal level before. 

"Shut up." Aizawa growled at her as he tried to pry her off. "Nem, these are my classmates. Get off and let me pay." He tells the girl as he violently elbows her in the side. 

Kayama yelps and let's go of him, but she recovers quickly and throws herself at Izumi. 

"Oh you're so cute!" Kayama squeals as she pressed Izumi's face into her cleavage. 

"Lucky." Izumi hears Shirakumo whisper behind her as Yamada laughs, the traitors.

Aizawa sighs from somewhere close and Izumi feels hands on her shoulders pulling her away from Kayama. "Nem, she needs to be able to breathe." He deadpans. 

Izumi gasps for air, she knew distantly that this female had a weakness to cute things, but she had never considered herself either cute or a thing. 

Feeling the hands on her shoulders push her into the direction of a booth, Izumi trips her way over before she collapses on the seat and shuffles her way into a corner. 

"I know Shō hasn't told you all about me, but I'm Kayama Nemuri, I've been friends with Shō forever." Kayama bubbles excitedly. 

"Shirakumo Oboro" The bluenette matches Kayama's energy. 

"Yamada Hizashi." The blond offers with even more enthusiasm. 

"Nezu Izumi." She herself whispers a little overwhelmed. 

"Great, now you all know each other." Aizawa sighs, he looks and sounds like he regrets his choices in life. 

Izumi opens her mouth to ask Aizawa a question only to squeak when she feels two furry paws on her knees. 

Dipping herself under the table she saw the biggest fluffiest cat ever. The feline was a stone gray with white boots and a four point star in the center of his forehead. 

Completely forgetting about the people around her, Izumi rubbed her index and middle finger with her thumb by her stomach in an invitation for the huge cat to make itself comfortable on her legs. 

When the cat quickly jumps onto her lap Izumi coos a little at how big it is, her fingers are light as they bury themselves in the cat's fur. 

Beside he Aizawa makes a shocked sound, Izumi looks up at him with her right eyebrow cocked in question.

"Morpheus usually avoids females, he was rescued from an abusive sorority house." Aizawa tells her, he still sounds surprised. 

"Oh, like recognizes, like." She whispers without thinking. "Morpheus, the Greek god of sleep and dreams."

There is a loud squeal from the other side of the table, it's so high pitched Izumi is surprised to see that it came from Yamada and not Kayama. There is a ginger cat climbing up his arm, it's claws digging into the fabric of his jacket as it shimmies its way up. 

"Dionysus…" Aizawa smirks lightly at the ginger crawling up their blond friend. 

Yamada is flapping his cat free arm, he looks panicked but far too in love with the animal to remove it, the flapping hand hits Shirakumo in the back of the head hard enough to send him face first into Kayama's cleavage. 

Kayama starts to cackle at the poor blue haired boy as he stutters out apologies , his face red as a stop light. 

Izumi cocks her eyebrow again and looks at Aizawa who now has a short haired pure white cat draped around his shoulders. 

"Selene?" She asks the black haired boy.

"Un." Aizawa grunts in affirmation. His eyes are a little too wide to come off as nonshelaunt as he wants. 

Izumi gives a grunt when Morpheus shifts himself , his forepaws are now one on each of her shoulders, his head is tucked up under her chin and she can feel him purring deeply in her chest. 

"Nemuri." Her name was called as she entered the cafe. 

She spotted Izumi already seated with the giant cat that the green haired girl had fallen in love with. 

"Izumi! It's a surprise for you to ask me out." Nemuri winked at the other girl, Izumi just grinned at her. 

"Yeah, I know but I need some advice and who better than my only female friend." Nemuri laughed outwardly at Izumi but sighed in despair inwardly. 

"So, what's the gossip?" Nemuri asked as she welcomed a feline into her own lap. 

Izumi blushed a light pink, and she was looking at the table with almost laser-like focus. 

"I like somebody, well actually two somebodies." Izumi mumbles so quietly that Nemuri almost misses it. 

Her heart skips a beat, Nemuri is so excited to be getting love gossip. She needs to track down Hizashi next before she can start planning on how to get them together

"Ooooooooohh?" Nemuri drags the word out.

"Un, I uh, I didn't have the best childhood, and I'm really bad with emotion, and dealing with them, and I like Shō and Zashi, and I don't like it, I dunno what to do. I'm scared to mess up, what if they hate me, or just I don't know, I can't lose you four, you're my first friends, I've never had friends before, I never had a crush before, and my first is on two of my best friends." Izumi starts to ramble quickly and Nemuri feels bad she only cared about the gossip. 

"Stop Izumi." Nemuri demands sharply. "Breathe."

Nemuri watches as Izumi starts to slow her breathing. 

"Good, now I know for a fact that Shō would never hate you, pretty sure Hizashi wouldn't either." She points out in what she hopes is a serious tone. 

"I don't think you have anything to worry about. Personally I think you should ask them out and just…kiss them or something. It would be pretty clear to them, and with the way that they both watch you I don't think there's gonna be a problem." Nemuri says even more confidently. 

They sit together for an hour, trading stories about their internships and Nemuri tries and fails epically in talking fashion with Izumi, but she's happy when she waves goodbye to Izumi. 

Nemuri waits until she's around the corner before she whips out her phone. 

Nemuri: we need 2 talk

Hizashi: uh sure ʕ⨀ᴥ⨀ʔ

Short but sweet, and the poor soul has no idea what's about to happen. 

When Hizashi finally opens the door Nemuri has to hold back a gasp at the split lip and black eye he sports, his hair isn't even styled like it usually was. 

"Dear god, are you okay?" She asks as her hands flutter around his face. 

Hizashi smiles with a wince. "Yeah, I just should have listened more to Mimi about not relying on my quirk." Hizashi tells her sheepishly. 

"You should always listen to the farer sex." She teases him lightly. 

"Come in, my mom's aren't home so we can talk in the living room." Hizashi steps away from the door to wait further down the enterince for her. 

Once they are both seated on the couch Hizashi looks a lot more wry than he did before, Nemuri is pretty sure that it's because of the manic smile she can feel on her lips. 

"So, have you figured out you're in love with Shōta too yet?" Nemuri is almost surprised at how predatory she sounds. 

"Have you figured out you're in love with Oboro yet?" Hizashi sasses her back. 

"Yep!" Nemuri chirps. "I plan on asking him on a date soon. Just waiting for the right time."

"Fine, yeah I talked with my mom and mama and they pointed out my feelings for Shō, but it's crazy to like them both. Chances of us all liking each other is like one in a million." Hizashi grumbles at her. 

"That's what you think!" Nemuri all but shouts at him. "You are all so dumb!" She throws her hands in the air in complete exasperation. 

"What?" Hizashi asks dumbly. 

"I mean, Shō came barreling into my room after you went shopping with them and Keigo, to have a crisis about liking you both. And Izumi just called me for coffee, freaking out over her own crushes on you and Shōta." Nemuri tells him point blank and watches his face go through a rapid change in many emotions. 

"It's also highly probable that the other two aren't gonna do anything about it, so you are the only hope!" She whines at him dramatically. 

"Oh." Hizashi breathes as he just sits there. 

"Hurry dad!" Keigo shouted from where he was dragging Izumi the last few feet to the grass that surrounded the play equipment. 

Izumi tripped over her own two feet at Keigo already calling Nezu 'dad'. Izumi dropped Keigo's hand so she wouldn't pull him to the ground with her. 

Gentle hands catch Izumi by the shoulders. "Careful there dear." A woman's voice says softly in her ear, as Izumi is placed back on her feet. 

"Ahhhh, thank you." Izumi yelps, turning as best she can to bow. Hands are on her shoulders again pushing her into standing again. 

"Please don't." The woman is saying as she pushes. 

"Izumi, is everything okay?" Nezu asks as he makes his way from where he had been talking to Keigo. 

"Yea dad." Izumi says at the same time Rei gasps.

"Nezu-san" Rei starts bowing and it's Izumi's turn to stop her. 

"Todoroki-san, it has been many years." Nezu greets Rei, both him and Izumi catch the flinch at the use of the last name. 

"Hello, I'm Nezu Izumi, my new little brother is around here somewhere too." Izumi says softly with a small smile on her lips. 

"NEE-CHAN! SHŌ-NII IS HERE WITH SOME CRAZY!" Keigo's scream cuts through the air making both females jump. 

"I guess he's over there, excuse me for a moment. I will bring the others to introduce themselves." She tells the two adults and sprints to where she thought Keigo was. 

"But he's so cute Shō. I want to take him home with me and never let him go!" Izumi hears Nemuri saying as she gets closer. 

"Put down the rosefinch or Izumi is gonna make you hurt for scaring him." Shōta says as he catches Izumi's gaze. 

Izumi crouches a little lower so she will be able to take out Nemuri's knees, she trusts Shōta to catch Keigo before he's hurt. 

When she makes contact between her right shoulder and the back of Nemuris knees she stands from her crouch making the purple haired girl throw Keigo and scream like she's being murdered and she's flipped over Izumi head and lands with a heavy this. 

"Little rosefinch!" Izumi calls to Keigo as she barrels into Keigo and Shōta, her hands are fluttering around them both checking for any wounds they might have. 

They must not be injured because once they both stop staring at her in shock they both start to cackle, Keigo lands first on his feet then collapses to his knees as Shōta doubles over holding his stomach. 

Izumi crosses her own arms over her chest and huffs at them before she turns and lightly pushes oh Nemuris side with her foot. 

"Don't scare my baby bird." She growls at the other female. 

Nemuri whines from where she's face down in the dirt. 

"Oh get up, I know you take harder hits in training." Izumi says unimpressed with the other girl. 

"Come on, dad wants us to meet some people." Izumi says at the still laughing boys and groaning girl before she starts back in the direction she had come from. 

She hadn't made it very far before she sees both her dad and Rei watching the events that had just unfolded. 

Izumi freezes and blushes so deeply she knows she looks like a strawberry. 

"Ahhhhh, damn, there goes first impressions." She mumbles, her dad's squeaking laugh makes it known that she wasn't quiet enough. 

"Come along children, Rei-san would like you to meet her children." Nezu says after he clears his throat to calm his laughter. 

Izumi slides up next to her dad close enough that Rei will hear her speak as well. "Sorry dad, Nemuri was scaring our rosefinch, she wouldn't listen to Shōta so I just kinda...yeah." she apologizes. 

"I'm glad you are willing to protect him, when we get him out of the commission's claws I assume they will try to get him back." Nezu has a growl in her voice as he says that and Izumi nods frantically. 

"I would do it for any child being harmed, no matter who is doing the harming." She says with steel in her words and shoulders squared. 

After the short exchange that has Rei sizing Izumi and Nezu up with a slightly hopeful glint in her eyes the other three had finally come to join them. 

"Nee-chan you gotta teach me how to do that." Keigo says as he grabs her hand with a big toothy smile. 

"When you're older, you're only seven it's too early to train you yet, you're supposed to be having fun like any kid." She tells him with a serious face. "When you are thirteen we can talk about it then." 

"Rei-san, you've met Izumi, but the young boy is Keigo. The dark haired male is Aizawa Shōta, one of my students. And the female is Kayama Nemuri, a second year in the heroics course." Nezu introduces them. 

"My oldest is your age, Keigo-kun." Rei says softly with a small smile. "Come I'll introduce you." 

The group of five follow the slight white haired woman over to where three children and a baby are sitting quietly on a blanket. 

"These are my children." Rei informs before pointing to each child as she gives their names. "Touya, Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Shoto." 

Izumi steps forward to be their spokes person. "Hi I'm Nezu Izumi, this is my brother Keigo, behind me are my friends Shōta and Nemuri, we are expecting two more soon, and my dad is Nezu." Izumi waves a hand in the general direction of each person as she speaks. 

"Do you want to play tag with us?" She asks, hopeful that they aren't to shelters yet to want to play. 

Touya looks them over with careful eyes. "Sure, but one of you is it." He says, his voice is already raspy from the damage his fire does. 

"I'll be it." Izumi chirps as the three who are old enough stand to join them. "I'll count to ten so everyone can scatter." 

"One...two…" Keigo let go of her hand but grabbed onto Natsuo's, carefully running with him. 

"Three...four…" Shōta looked at Touya both assessing one another before they took off in opposite directions. 

"Five….six…" Nemuri had scooped Fuyumi up to get her far enough away with how far Izumi was in the count down. 

"Seven…" Oboro had arrived, Izumi pauses in counting to yell at him. "Playing tag, I'm it, the white haired kids are playing, and the blonde with red wings is my rosefinch." Oboro nods and turns on his heel to go after Nemuri and Fuyumi. 

"Eight...nine….ten…" Izumi starts at a sprint to where she sees Shōta. 

It takes her a few tries, Shōta's legs are longer than hers, but she's faster. She finally hits his bicep before she spins on her heel with a crazed laugh and sprints to where she sees Keigo and Natsuo. 

"Shōta's it." She announces loudly as she runs past the others. 

Skidding to a stop near the two boys she was aiming to talk to, she squats in front of them, knowing Shōta will most likely go after Touya. 

"The blue haired boy by Nemuri and Fuyumi is my friend Oboro, he's kinda loud and silly and very protective." She lets the two boys know before she ruffles their hair and heads over to the adults to let Rei know about Oboro. 

Izumi stopped and kneeled on the edge of the blanket, she quickly carded her hand through silky soft red and white hair on Shotos head before she met Rei's eyes. 

"My friend just arrived a few minutes ago, he has blue hair, his name is Shirakumo Oboro, he is also in the same class with Shōta and myself. The last one who is coming is Yamada Hizashi, another classmate, he spikes his blond hair up, but I'm sure dad will point him out when he arrives." Izumi explains, she feels her eyes flickering down to Shoto often. 

"Touya's it." Izumi hears Shōta yell out to everyone. 

"Ah, that's my cue." She laughs lightly before she's back on her feet and running. 

"Fuyumi's it." Touya's raspy voice calls next. 

"Ne-Nemuri's it." A high childish voice calls moments after. 

Nemuri seems to have set her sights on Izumi, she's sprinting towards the green haired girl at a speed faster than Izumi has seen her move before. 

Izumi evades being tagged a few time before she feels a slap on her shoulder. 

"Izumi's it." Nemuri calls, Izumi pauses to catch her breath, she sees Hizashi in the corner of her eye and starts off running towards Natsuo and Keigo again. 

This time both boys run, Keigo is helping Natsuo stay on his feet and urging him to keep running, Izumi is stupidly proud of him for thinking of others already. 

Izumi runs a few paces behind them swiping her hand out every few moments, she's making it look like she's trying hard to catch them, they've made their way across the park when Izumi touches Keigo's shoulder lightly. 

"Ah, just a ten seconds time out." She says quickly once the two have stopped. "Hizashi is here, he is the other blond boy talking to your mom, okay Natsuo?" 

"Uh huh." The boy is panting hard, he's only four. 

Izumi scoops him up in her arms and calls out. "Keigo's it, Hizashi is here and in play." 

Keigo starts to run at Hizashi who squeals like a pig and takes off at a run that's just out of Keigo's reach, he only runs for around half a minute before Izumi sees a small hand land on his back. 

"Zashi-nii it!" Keigo calls out then he runs towards Izumi had last seen Touya. 

There is a scream and the sound of bodies colliding, Izumi stops and sees Hizashi laying on top of Shōta, who thankful seems to have given Fuyumi to Oboro. 

There are two loud groans before Hizashi is popping back to his feet and slipping a little of his quirk into his voice. 

"Shōta's it." 

Shōta growls, and Izumi isn't really sure why her heart skips a beat at the sound. 

She's not really running fast enough to avoid Shōta, but instead of her arm he taps it's Natsuo's. 

"Natsuo's it." Shōta calls and take off. 

"You good to run again?" Izumi asks before she puts him on his feet. 

"Uh huh." The little white hairs boy nods. 

Izumi runs away slowly, she looks over her shoulder to see Natsuo running as fast as his little legs can carry him to Touya. 

Izumi runs so she can scoop up the boy again once he has tagged his brother. 

"Tou-nii it." Natsuo's little voice is just loud enough to hear. 

Touya waits for Izumi to be close enough to pick up Natsuo before he takes off focus fully on Oboro. He's a little rough when his hand slaps Oboro's hip. 

The blue haired boy looks around and spots Hizashi close by, he jogs over to the blond and deposits a sleepy Fuyumi into his arms. 

Izumi grins a little at the dopey smile on Hizashi's face when he looks at the little girl. 

"Nee-chan, I sleepy." Natsuo says and shoves his face firmly into her shoulder. 

Izumi rubs his back and slowly walks over to the adults. "Okay Natsuo, I am going to put you down and grab your sister, then we can all nap together." She tells him softly before sitting him by Nezu. 

"Natsuo, Fuyumi, and Izumi are out." She calls to the other as she jogs to meet Hizashi to take the sleeping girl. 

Once she's back on the blanket Izumi has both small white haired children cuddled into her lap and around each other as she watches the others play, keeping a close eye of Touya and Keigo. 

"You know Rei-san...I don't mean to be rude, but what if dad and I could get you all away?" Izumi asks without looking at the woman, she knows Nezu didn't bring this up, they had agreed that Izumi would, because if I child can tell that they are being abused then other can and are ignoring it. 

"There is an officer, Tsukauchi, he has a lie detector quirk, I can get the evidence, you just have to give it to him and move your things into our home." Izumi keeps speaking. "I hate seeing children hurt, dad saved me, and we are saving Keigo, let us save you and yours as well." 

Izumi finishes what she's saying just before Touya and Keigo both collapse near her with tired huffs, Izumi doesn't think as she reaches out to both boys and starts to finger comb their hair, humming a very old prequirk song. 

As soon as everyone under the age of nine is asleep around her the other teens come and join them, Nemuri is dramatically telling them about Izumi flipping her but she's quiet enough none of the kids wake up. 

"It's okay, it's all over, you're such a good girl Eri." She whispered as they plummeted towards the road. 

Izumi knew she wasn't going to survive the impact, even with Eri rewinding the damage that had been inflicted on her body. 

Maybe even because of rewind, she could feel that her hero costume was getting loose, that she was beginning to shrink closer to Eri's size, not that she was much bigger to begin with. 

Her quiet whispers to the white haired girl seemed to be doing nothing to calm her, the little girl's horn was glowing brighter and brighter. They were moments from impact when Izumi felt something slither through her, once she had confirmed that it had a hold of Eri. Izumi had one last thought before her world flashed white. 

____________________

Something was poking Izumi in the cheek, it felt kind of sharp and kind of blunt, she really didn't know how to describe it. 

Swatting at whatever was interrupting her nap Izumi was slightly startled by the contact with fur and a squeaking laugh. 

"Ah, good you're awake." She recognized that voice. 

Opening her eyes with a groan, Izumi caught sight of the being that was talking. 

"Principal Nezu." She croaked at the albino stoat. 

"Interesting, but I do believe it should be Nezu-sensei." The being replied to her, but there was a glint in his eye that Izumi felt she should be more worried about. 

"What happened?" She asked instead of acknowledging his correction, as she snapped up to kneel in front of Nezu.

"Ah, I believe, to know that you need to answer the same question." Nezu countered.

"I was on work studies with Nighteye, we were trying to rescue Eri from Overhaul. I had just been able to knock Overhaul out with the help of Eri when we were falling. She panicked and I think her quirk…rewound me." Izumi told the stoat, she slowed down at the end of her sentence. 

Her eyes widened with realization and panic. "What year is it?" She whisper-yelled, she knew that actually yelling would harm Nezu's hearing. 

"Oh? It's thirty-fifteen, August third." Izumi felt her body lock up a little. 

"Oh." Was all she could get out before her breathing started to pick up, her hearing went fuzzy and she could feel sweat pouring down her face and neck. 

"...ild...bre…our…t...in two three four, out two three four." Izumi had no idea how long she had been panicking, but she was ever so glad that Nezu was there, his voice along with the sound of a metronome Coming from his phone was able to push through the static. 

"Better?" Nezu asked her, he waited for her nod before he asked more questions. "What was the date when you were rewound? What is your name?" 

"Thirty-thirty-two, April first." Izumi took a shuddering breath. "Midoriya Izumi." 

Tears had started to slide down her cheeks as she looked at the stoat. "There is no way to go back, I don't know what to do." She whispered. 

The hug she was pulled into surprised her just a little, she didn't know much about Nezu, but she knew that Aizawa-sensei had been wary of him.

"Midor-" 

Izumi cut him off, she knew it was rude but she had never liked being 'Midoriya'. "Please sensei, just Izumi. I can't be Midoriya, I...my mother... I'm not born for another two years." 

"Ah, Izumi-chan then. I don't know how much you know of me, but I would like to offer to help you. The things you know could very well end the world." Izumi nodded frantically. "When we get to my home we can speak more." 

Nezu moved away from her as he spoke, Izumi missed the contact with every fiber of her being, but she stood from where she had been kneeling. 

Gathering up the loose fabric of her hero suit Izumi fell into step behind the stoat, her mind was racing, the possibilities of time travel, the ramifications, the shear dumb luck of Nezu finding her. 

It turned out that she had landed in the middle of the sidewalk directly in the path Nezu took to get home from U.A, maybe the universe was just trying to finally help, maybe the good karma she had was kicking in. 

It only took them ten minutes to reach a lovely little bungalow, the grass was lush green and the flowers were all blooming in dark reds. The door, oddly enough, had a door in it, one was the normal size you would see in homes, the other was smaller. 

Nezu turned to her with sharp eyes, it looked as if he was calculating her height and if they would need the larger door or not. 

They did not, Izumi knew she was short, she had always been below average in height. Between not getting enough food growing up, and her genetics she knew she would be lucky to stand at five foot two fully grown. 

Taking in the open floor plan Izumi followed the stoat deeper into his home. 

The entryway quickly gave way to a sitting room, the couches were all regular sized, and a light brown suede. The coffee table stood in the middle of the room between the couches and a television. There were diplomas and paintings that lined the walls, all in all it was a lovely home. 

The kitchen was separated by a half wall, it was all gleaming steel and gray counters, the cabinets were all a light wood color, it was a very masculine kitchen. Off to one side a table with three chairs was pushed against a wall, it was covered in paper, Izumi noted that the chaotic mess seemed to have a system. 

Nezu had walked to a couch and seated himself, when he noticed he had her attention he waved a paw in invitation to join him. 

"Start from the beginning, tell me everything you can." He directed her, she wasn't sure what he ment but she would do as she does best and overshare. 

"I was born in thirty-seventeen, when I was four they told me I was quirkless, after that my mom kind of ignored that I was there, I was bullied a lot in school, told to kill myself and given scars from people using their quirks on me. I was fourteen when I met All Might, he saved me from this sludge villain, then I learnt that he was injured from a fight, he left me on a roof after telling me a quirkless person couldn't be a hero." Telling Nezu the part of All Might crushing her dreams made her breathing stutter and fresh tears gather in her eyes. 

"After I had gotten off the roof and on my way back home I heard explosions from my main totmenters quirk going off, I went to see what was happening when I saw the same sludge villain attacking them. The hero's on scene weren't doing anything, they were just standing there watching as the sludge suffocated Kac-chan. I moved really without thinking, I threw my backpack at the sludges eyes, reached in and grabbed Kac-chan's collar and pulled. All Might showed up again, and captured the sludge again. The hero's that were just watching started to praise the bully for his powerful quirk, and then when they found out I was quirkless they started to berate me." 

Izumi feels her face twist into a sneer at the memory, she still couldn't believe that they had the balls to get mad at her for doing their jobs. 

"I got away, and on the way home again All Might stops me and offers me his quirk, One-for-All." She whispers the name of the quirk, she knows she doesn't have to, but it feels right. 

"He trained me for ten months, and the day of the entrance exams he had me eat his hair, I didn't do very well collecting villain points, but I got a lot of rescue ones. I broke both arms and my leg from using the quirk. I was accepted into class one-A." The smile Izumi can feel on her lips is soft and happy, nothing like the blinding one she used to deflect people's attention. 

"The first week of school was okay, no one but All Might knew that my quirk was new, and there were a lot of problems. The second week we went to the U.S.J where we were attacked by the league of villains, they almost killed sensei, they had come to kill All Might, but he wasn't there. After that the next big thing was work studies. I was with Gran Torino, we were going to Hosu, and the train was attacked by a creature named 'Nomu', a creation of the league. Torino left me on the train, but a classmate of mine was in the city and I was worried." 

Izumi shivered a little at the next few memories. 

"I went searching for him, I found him about to be killed by the hero killer Stain, I got involved trying to save my classmate and a hero he had dragged into getting revenge. I fought Stain and won with the help of another classmate who distracted him briefly. Endeavour took credit for it." Izumi scowls a little at the thought of the flame hero. 

"Uh…" Izumi's voice cracks as she's trying to figure out if she needs to go over her work studies again. 

She misses it when Nezu gets off the couch and grabs her a water bottle from the kitchen, she clues back in when she feels the cold plastic against her hands. 

Taking a few deep swallows, Izumi relishes in the soothing cold. 

"Next was summer camp, we were attacked again by the league, Kac-chan was kidnapped, a group from class went to go help rescue him, and stuff gets fuzzy there for a little, but I remember being terrified of the villain who started the league. All-for-One." This name she whispers in fear, she had not been told the whole story, but she could guess where One-for-All came from. 

"Then we come to the work study I told you about." She finishes lamely. 

Nezu hums where he's seated, he looks to be thinking, she knows high-specs is an amazing quirk, she had always been envious of the stoat. 

"By the looks of your suit I would say your physical age has changed, how old would you say you are?" The question throws Izumi off a little. 

But by the end of the day he was tired and frustrated with himself. 

It had been a month since he had realized that he had feelings for Izumi and they had not gone away, it was not something he liked. 

"Thank you." Izumi whispered to him and Hizashi once they had gotten back to her home and had put Keigo in his room for a nap. 

Shōta jerked a little when he felt Izumi sway into his personal space and rest her forehead on his chest, he caught her hand reaching towards Hizashi who quickly snapped it up and moved closer to Izumi from behind. 

"I...thank you." Izumi says again and she steps closer so she is pressed along Shōta's front, Hizashi follows her and presses along her back. 

Shōta is surprised as his own arms wrap around Izumi's waist, Hizashi's follow but his hands land on Shōtas hips. 

"Your welcome doll face." Hizashi says quietly, theres a soft look on his face as he meets Shōta's eyes. 

'Oh fuck!" Is all Shōta can think when his heart gives an extra hard thump. 

The three of them stay like that for long enough for Shōta to wrestle his thoughts back into neutral territory.

Hizashi is the first one to step away from the hug, his smile is a little sad as he speaks. "I gotta go home, mom wants me back before dinner." 

Izumi follows Hizashi and turns to offer him a proper hug with a whispered. "See you on Monday." She lets him go then, and Shōta nods his head. 

"I'm gonna go too, I haven't started the essay that's due on Monday." Shōta says as well, it's a lie but he really need to go have a crisis at Nemuri right now. 

"See you Monday too then Shō." Izumi hugs him again. 

When both he and Hizashi are outside of the house and they hear the lock click into place they catch each other's eye, nothing is said as they both walk down the block before they split ways with quickly exchanged. "Bye" 

Once he knows he's out of sight Shōta starts a quick jog to Nemuri's house, once he gets there he's frantically knocking on the door.

"She's up in her room." Nemuri's dad says once he looks at Shōta. 

Kicking off his shoes Shōta sprints to Nemuri's room and throws the door open before diving into her bed and under her blankets. 

"Shō?"Nemuri's voice is full of worry and exasperation. 

"Shit shit shit shit shit!" Shōta swears, he's having a crisis and just needs Nemuri to understand without him talking about it. 

"You scare the kid?" She asks, he can tell she's laughing at him. 

"Nooooooo." He drags out the vowel in a long whine. 

"Can't help if you don't tell me." Nemuri points out, it makes Shōta hate her a little bit for not being a mind reader. 

"Think I like Zashi too." He grits out, every syllable is hurting him a little to press out. 

It's quiet for a few moments and Shōta braces himself.

Nemuri bursts out in cackles, there is a thump that Shōta hopes is Nemuri falling on the floor as he listens to her laugh at his problems. 

"I hate you." He growls at her still under the blankets and hiding. 

"Okay." Nemuri gets out followed by heavy breathing. 

"Is this your bi crisis, or is this that you like two people, or is this something else?" She finally asks when she calms down. 

"I had the gay crisis in seventh grade, and my straight crisis in ninth. So I figured out I was bi then." Shōta snarks. 

He then takes a deep breath and let's go of his self control to get all his thoughts out. "It's the two of them. Izumi is oblivious as fuck, and Hizashi is totally my opposite in every way. I know it's not like a stupid thing but seeing them both with the kid. 'Keigo' by the way, it was just so, and they are just so, and after we got back to Izumi's house she just leaned on me, and grabbed Hizashi's hand, and the she was hugging me, and I was hugging her, then Hizashi was hugging too, but his hands were on my hips. I never realized how tall he is, like a full head taller than me, and like two feet taller than Izumi. And he's cute, and she's pretty and I just...UGH." 

Nemuri is laughing at him again, he shoves his face in her pillow and screams. 

"Pretty sure Hizashi is oblivious too. Want me to say something?" Nemuri asks after catching her breath again.
