The Attack
The Attack

Izuku was nine, nearly ten, when the worst day of his life happened.
All four of them were in one of his father’s more rural bases in America. It was July 4th- not just Independance Day for the Americans, but a day of celebration for the family as well, as it was his mother’s birthday. The kids of villains ran around the compound with sparklers, their parents following them with weak salutes to All for One and Crybaby, All for One’s sons holding onto their father’s hands as he trailed behind his wife. Kurogiri followed behind them like a specter, wispy body practically floating through the hallways.
It had felt like such a good day that the first explosion had just seemed like fireworks, the first scream one of joy, the first collapse and electrical flash-
Well, when the lights started to flash and someone yelled “It's All Might!” was when All for One had perked up, immediately sinking into the shadows and leaving his children and wife behind. Izuku had gasped in delight, before looking over at Tomura, who was pale.
Then the running started, and the crowd in the compound began to push each other. Izuku was separated first, Tomura running off after him and Inko calling out for her boys to come back through the crowd of people. People cried out when they saw the boys alone, but it wasn’t enough for Inko to get over to them-
Crack.
Kurogiri flared out, children and villains being teleported anywhere and everywhere that wasn’t here as the compound began to crack and came crashing down. A single strike from All for One and All Might’s battle destroyed half of the compound, killing everyone still trapped inside. Dust flared through the hallways, obscuring everyone’s vision. A baby started to wail, drowning out the sounds of groups trying to find each other-
Bang!
Another collapse, much closer this time.
Tomura’s wings broke through his shirt, tearing it to shreds, before flaring out. He grabbed his brother by the arm and flew up, stopped by the ceiling above them, spider web cracking already extending through the drywall. Inko reached out with her quirk and heaved, grabbing onto Izuku’s shirt and pulling them towards her, before she was shoved by someone in the crowd and forced to release him. Tomura flew towards her general location, wings curling like a shield as he landed, forcing the remnants of the crowd to go around-
A glossy white shield surrounded them, protecting them from the smoke and dust.
“Dad,” Izuku whispered, tears welling in his eyes. Tomura grabbed him and dragged him towards his chest, his mom grabbing him by the shoulder to keep him close. The shield fell in a series of burning sparks that left little marks across any and all exposed skin, Inko’s grip on her son tightening.
The battlefield was dust. Just dust and dirt, where there once were expansive gardens, homes, and a float celebrating July 4th. All of it was torn to shreds. The battle was marked in flashes of red and blue and black, their father trying to cause as little damage to his compound as possible in the fear of killing his children and wife but nearly getting overwhelmed by All Might’s onslaught of attacks.
Izuku’s breath hitched, and their mother scowled, tears running down her face before she reached out a hand.
“Mom! It’s too far!” Tomura exclaimed, and their mother grimaced.“I don’t care. That bastard does not get to hurt my husband,” she pulled, Kurogiri wrapping around them to send them away as All Might let out a strangled scream as his stomach erupted from his body. Izuku grabbed onto Tomura’s arm as the last image faded and they were covered in an icy, wet sensation before being teleported.

Izuku will be a hero, because there is no other option.
He will save everyone, because there is no other option.
And he will eat them whole, because there is no other option.

The recorder sputtered, before beeping.
“Hello, my name is Tsukauchi Naomasa, detective of the Major Crimes Division of the Shizuoka Prefecture, serving at station 577 in Musutafu. My quirk is called Lie Detector, registration number 321459301. I will be explicitly stating whether a given response is a truth or a lie. Alright, All Might. Let’s begin. For the record, can you please state your name, age, quirk, and date of birth…”
The hand-held recorder popped and sputtered. A gloved hand slammed down near it, causing it to jump. It popped once more, before continuing to play.
“Toshinori Yagi, age fifty-two, quirkless, birthday, June 10th.”
“Thank you,” papers rustled loudly, and the voices after were muffled. The detective had placed a file over his recorder, “Now, will you please state your relation to the villain All for One?”
“He’s my son.”

Villain Deku

My version of villain Deku, the villain Dokuhebi: Taipan! (Also known as Doku, meaning poisonous). You can find him in my fic The Dead Cannot Cry

And a quick sketch of loser Shigaraki >:)
Hi Gentry! May I borrow you fic finders?
I'm looking for a fic where Izuku befriended the LoV before going to UA, and throughout all the Villain Attacks they recognize him and went "!! AYO GREAN BEAN?!?!? WADDUP?" and leaving all this heroes confused on why this bone-breaking child is friends with them
I'm not a fan of cheese, so I hope chocolate is acceptable as offerings 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫
Fic finders, ASSEMBLE!
