Chapter Text
Another day, another night in the city of Musutafu. In a world of quirks, people think that they know it all and see it all in their 'oh so precious' city. They live their lives as if nothing is wrong and it's all sunshine and rainbows. Never have to worry about the 'bad and evil' people because they have strong heroes who will protect them. Nothing is wrong, all is PRECFET.
-That just sounds sick-. In all honestly, it's just a sick joke. That 'sunshine and rainbows' vibe is all fake. Because when sunshine becomes nighttime, then those 'bad and evil' people come out to play. The more normal people stay away from dark streets. They don't know the true horrors that happen. Not even the limelight heroes know, thinking it's not worth their time or responsibility.
Like I said normal people generally avoid the back alley and don't venture out at night.
Well, that's the opposite of what Izuku Midoryia is doing.
Walking down the dark street with a cigarette in hand, -and yes cigarettes are bad for your health, blah, blah, blah ok yea whatever but with a quirk that naturally fills your lungs with smoke, it honestly doesn't f-ing matter- you may be wondering why Izuku is walking in the night like a creep?
It's simple, he was bored.
He isn't alone either, walking on both sides of Izuku, and in front of him are three large dogs. They are of a different breed but they all have one in common. Well, four things but besides being male, huge, and named after gods of Greek Mythology; they are very protective of their master. The first on the right of Izuku is a grey Neapolitan Mastiff named Zeus. Next, on his left is a white Central Asian Shepherd named Posideon. Lastly, upfront is a black Cane Corso named Hades.
Since it was late in the night Izuku didn't have his dogs on a leash. Reasons begin Izuku doesn't care, his dogs are well trained and well manured. If people have a problem with it they can suck it. -Haters- Plus when people see Izuku who is a tall muscular delinquent for the first time; they would generally back off. But since he knows people are fucking assholes, he would have them on a leash and would only take one of them out during the day but at night it's a free game. It's also because Izuku has made a name for himself on the dark streets, but that's something to talk about later.
So we have here Izuku, smoking a cancer stick with his three companions walking down the street without a care in the world.
Once again, as I said earlier normal people wouldn't be wandering around the dark streets, so when Izuku passed by an alleyway, he heard a little noise and the scent of blood hit his nose. Normally, it would be some streetfighter or thug bleeding after losing a fight, Izuku would have ignored it and walked away.-I would have walked away- However, he paused dead on his track and looked down the alley. He had a gut feeling something was wrong and his gut feelings are never wrong.
"Posideon Go," Izuku called out to the shepherd and pointed down the alley. Following the order from Izuku, Posideon walked down the alley sniffing for the blood. Izuku watched as his dog continued to sniff around for a few minutes until he stopped in front of some trash cans. Posideon sniffed one last time before pushing the trash cans with his snout and grabbing the source of the blood. There, hanging from the jaws of the large dog was a little girl. The girl in question was wearing what looked like a dirty plain dress with her arms and legs wrapped in bandages and her bluish off-white hair was a mess.
She was in clear terror from the tears running down her ruby red eyes and the trembles from her little body. -Poor baby- Izuku walked towards the two until he was standing in front of them. The little girl didn't know what to do with how much fear she is feeling. She didn't know the person in front of her, all she can think about was how this person can take her back to the scary place. She flinched when Izuku crouched down to her eye level. Izuku knew that he had to wait to talk to her until she calmed down, so he carefully grabbed her from Posideon and sat down with her on his lap.
The little lamb didn't know what to do. This man was holding her with three big doggies surrounding her, the sheer terror in her body is too much. All she can do is shed more tears and let out little whimpers. Izuku felt the tremors of the little lamb and made him tighten his hold on her carefully so as not to scare her. As they both are in silence Izuku was in his thoughts. All he can think about was the rage coursing through his body. It's taking everything in him not to destroy the whole alleyway. -He might have punched a hole in the wall but let's not talk about it- I mean he finds a little girl covered in bandages, he had to help. You wouldn't just walk away. Wait, let me take that back people with no heart or soul would walk away. -Fucking disgrace- That's just adding more foul to Izuku's rage, people will just take one look and say "Not my responsibility." Izuku may be a delinquent but he's not a dick. -Mama raised no bitch-
After a while the girl realized the man holding her wasn't going to hurt her, she slowly calmed down but still had her guard up and enjoyed the warmth the man was giving. Izuku sensing she was calming down, spoke in a soft and low voice, or at least soft and low as he can get with a raspy voice from all that smoking, "Name's Izuku, what's yours?"
The girl tensed up and Izuku felt her tense so he gently rubbed her back to calm her, she looked up at him. -So tiny- She was clearly hesitant but since he hasn't done anything to hurt her she eventually answered with a timid, "E-Eri, my n-n-name is Eri." She sounded so broken it pained Izuku greatly. Before he could say anything else a large snout sniffed Eri's neck, startling the girl. She turned to the left and saw a white dog. She looked back at Izuku, who gave her a reassuring smile and said, "His name is Posideon." Upon hearing his name, Posideon gave a bark in response. The large shepherd went back to sniffing the girl, and the other two dogs that were with them got closer to Eri. She was again startled when another large snout sniffed her neck again and a tongue licked her cheek. Finding the picture in front of him funny, Izuku gave a small chuckle, he introduced the other two dogs. "The one sniffing you is Hades and the other is Zeus."
Having been sniffed in the neck and licked on her cheek is making Eri ticklish, resulting in a giggling fit. -My heart- At that moment, watching his dogs with Eri giggling warmed Izuku's heart. And at that moment, Izuku decided to fuck it, he was taking Eri home. He'll worry about the outcome later.
While Eri was distracted by the dogs, Izuku carefully shift to grab something from his pocket. Finding what he was looking for, Izuku brought out a bandaid for Eri. Why was there a bandaid in his pocket, he didn't want to talk about it. Grabbing Eri's attention from his dogs, he peeled the wrapping and carefully placed the bandaid on the scrap that was on her hand. Izuku got up from his sitting position on the ground with Eri in his arms. After sitting on the hard cold floor his legs and ass were a little sore. Eri looked at Izuku silently asking why he got up, he responded with, "Well, I'm taking you home." The only thing that came to Eri's mind when she heard the word 'home' was HIM. Thinking she was going to be taken back, the panic from earlier returned.
"NO! No p-please! Don't t-take me b-back! P-please!" At the top of her lungs, she screamed and screamed. Izuku held her for dear life, trying to calm her down. He tried everything to stop her from screaming and thrashing his arms. The rage from before returned 10 fold. Izuku desperately wanted to find whoever did this to this sweet little girl. However, right now isn't the time to think about that, Eri needs to calm down. So pushing through his rage, he held Eri tightly to his body, slowly rocking back and forth. He even notices his dog got tense and stood on guard when Eri began to scream. "Eri, hey, hey, shh- shh-... please, it's ok," Izuku pled to her, he continued to plead for her to calm down.
After a while, Eri tried herself out and notice that Izuku was generally concerned, she stopped but had tears running down her little face. Still rocking back and forth Izuku spoke, "Eri, you aren't going back to that place, as long you are with me, you'll never go back. I'll protect you." With the sheer seriousness and determination in Izuku's voice, Eri knew what he was saying was true.
For the first time in her life, she felt safe. So wrapping her little arms around his neck and snuggling until she was comfortable, she whispered a "thank you". -Ugh my heart- With his enhanced hearing Izuku was able to hear what she said. Readjusting his hold on her, he walked out of the alleyway with his three companions who were now less tense but still on guard to protect their master and new little pup.
"𝐋𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐠𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞"
Izuku heaved a sigh, his last thought of the night was how was he going to explain this to his girlfriend.
-Fuck-
