Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 - Orphan

It was normal night, Aizawa was watching over the city in the night, occasional robbers taking women's purses and pitpocketing, nothing unusual but he sees something unusual

A kid about 15 years old, about 6'0 feet tall, and wearing a blindfold, long, messy ginger hair, wearing dirty clothes that had holes in it was running bare foot holding a basket of fruit as a couple of guys chased after him yelling "Get back here you little theif!" or "I'm going to kill you once I get my hands on you!" The kid continued running, he was fast and his face showed that he wasn't scared or tired, it was just a blank expression, almost emotioless.

Aizawa followed close behind as he watched the kid closely, He didn't know why but something tells him that he had to, the kid managed to lose the guys, He slipped away, the kid looked around and ran towards an abandoned building, the doors and windows were being covered by tarps but Aizawa managed to see through a hole as he sees a make-shift tent made of various peices of cloth with at least 5 kids around 4 of them are around 5 to 7 years old while one looked older around 10 or 11.

"Big Bro!" The kids looked at the 15 as they ran to them and hugged his legs as he patted each of their heads as the kid spoke.

"..eat.." The 15 year old kid said as they walked inside the tent, Aizawa could see inside and sees a lamp in the center with beds on the floor as the children started eating happily, looking like they haven't eaten in a while, He couldn't believe it, The kid he saw was taking care of orphans, He got up and left, think he needs to do something to help, He decided to leave for tonight and come back tomorrow morning.

It was now the next day and the kids were sleeping with their 'big brother's as the 11 year old was keeping watch, He heard something outside, He looked through a hole in the tent and sees police cars and people outside the building as well as hero's, He immediately went back to the tent and woke up his brother

"Big Bro! Big Bro!" He woke up and gently sat up, to not wake up the kids, as he looked at his younger brother.

"There's people outside, I'm scared that their here to take us" He said as his hands were shaking.

"..stay.. I'll take care of it.." He patted his brothers head and slowly stood up, He walked out of the tent and took the tarp off the door as he stood outside, seeing people outside as a man with messy black hair and a scarf walked infront as he stood on guard

"..who.."

"Shota Aizawa, Don't worry I just want to talk, I'm here for you and your siblings-" Aizawa saw a blue blade coming to hit his head as he dodges and sees the kid holding daggers

"..leave.. now.. we don't need help.." The kid says as Aizawa sighed and stayed, He activated his quirk as his hair levitated and his eyes turned red, the blades dissapeared as the kid kept calm.

"..you.. following.. last night.." Aizawa's eyes widened he Never expected the kid to know that he was following him.

"I'm just here to talk, Can I come in? Just me, the police won't be here, Just us, and could you give me a name"

"..no name.." The kid was sceptical but turned around and walked inside as Aizawa followed, The kids were inside and awake, They were hugging each other.

The kid stopped walking as he turned around and made a spear out of water and pointed it to Aizawa.

"..talk.. now.."

"I'm here to help you all, I'm here to bring you to an orphanage, they can help take care of you all and you don't have to steal and stay here anymore

"..no.. no orphanage.. they only hurt us.. beat us for our mistakes.."

"I see.. well you can't stay here.. this building is going to be demolished soon" Aizawa said as he looked and stared at the kids.

"..then we'll leave.. and find another home.. just.. no orphanage.." the kid suddenly felt someone clinging to his leg as he looked down and sees a small black haired boy with a stick under his armpit, the most notable feature was his amputated leg, looked at him as he pulled on his shirt

"Brother, I'm hungry.." He frowned

"..not now Justin.. brother will go bring food later.." He said as the boy started pulling on his shirt more

Aizawa smiled and chuckled as he turned around and walked out, he walked back inside carrying a picnic basket, He placed it infront of the kid.

"Here, A peace offering, I really did just come here to talk" Aizawa said as he opened the basket and walked a few steps backwards as the kid with the amputated leg looked and ran to the basket.

The little boy, named Justin brought the basket back to his siblings as they started eating, He looked back and made the spear dissapear as he walked to his siblings and patted their heads, He looked at Aizawa and signalled him to come join them.

Aizawa smiled and joined them as he sat down and started eating with them as he sees the kids eating he smiles

"..thank you.." He said as Aizawa looked at him and smiled.

"Sorry about this kid, It might be personal but I gotta ask, why are you all here?"

"..we escaped.. the orphanage.. that hell hole.. I had to protect them.. I had to save them.. they're my family.. the caretakers.. they'd beat us.. hurt us.. yell at us.. even when we didn't do anything wrong they'd still blame us.."

Aizawa listen carefully as he patted the kids head as the kid looked up to see Aizawa looking at him.

"I'm sorry to hear that, sorry you had to suffer that all this time but I have to know, What's your quirk?"

".. doesn't have a name.." The kids looked at their brother and Aizawa sees this "Is something the matter?"

"It's just they big bro doesn't really talk this much, especially about our past to strangers, especially to adults, He said that adults are awful people who leaves you behind, I'm Shiba, 11 years old, by the way, Quirk's called White Mist, I'm able to produce white mist from my hands, I can control if the mist is toxic or not, I can also sense if anyone or anything is moving inside my mist, great for a smokescreen" Shiba said as he was about to start rambling on but Justin stopped him by hitting his head hard

"I see, What about them?" Aizawa looked at the kids as they started introducing themselves, two boys and two girls

"I'm Justin and I'm 5! And my quirk is called Cell Activation! Shiba said that I can activate people's cells and help them heal themselves!"

"I'm Hibiki, I'm 7, my quirk is called Inventory, I store items with my left hand and take them out with my right"

"Hello! I'm Yui and I'm 6! My quirk is called Overgrow! I can make make flowers and plants grow from the ground or from little seeds!"

"And I'm Ran, 7 years old, My quirk is Shortcut, Shiba says that I can teleport from one place to another as long as within my range of sight"

Aizawa was amazed at the quirks of these children, They have powerful quirks, especially if they want to become heros, Aizawa then had an idea, He then looked at the kid with a smile.

"Hey kid, How about we get you guys out of here?"
