Chapter Text
“I’m tired, I can’t keep dealing with this discrimination you bring. I am tired of being ostracized for having a quirkless son so I am disowning you. This will probably come as no surprise to you. CPS is coming to pick you up, they are outside. Please don’t come back. I am sorry I truly am.” Inko says through the barely opened door. He had just come home from school
Lining the hallway outside of the apartment are his things his stuff all labeled. Through the fuzz in his head he thinks he hears the door close and lock. an envelope sits on top of a trash bag. He opens the envelope inside is his birth certificate, social security number, his citizenship certificate, his hospital record and his mother+father’s health history, a official document saying Inko disowned her son and 300,000 yen (about 2,000 in usd). Looking at the boxes he sees three boxes for his allmight merch, one box for bedding, one box for winter clothes and then the trash bag he assumes is his summer clothes.
How could she do this?
His mind was fuzz and he felt numb like a robot it was like he was above his body looking down and watching someone else’s life. Inko had not been cruel but she hadn’t been nice either. Izuku barely saw her at the apartment most of the time she only came to eat and sleep. She kept the pantry and fridge stocked enough for dinner since lunch and breakfast he could have at school. She even payed for school stuff usually leaving an envelope with enough money for a uniform and supplies. It had been a while since he had called her mom or even talked to her but this hurt more then he realized it would. Inko had slowly started icing him out so this was expected. That didn’t mean it didn’t hurt.
A man in a suit tapped his shoulder making Izuku jump and yelp he turned.
“Hello I am Kenzo Watanabe , I am your social worker I will be homing you. For the time being you will be living in a group home until I can find a foster home for you. You can bring three boxes that’s it, there isn’t enough room for more. I will not be helping you bring it to the car.” Mr. Watanabe said before walking back towards the stairs. Izuku decided to grab the box for bedding, the box of winter clothes and the bag of summer clothes, he slipped the envelope from his mother into his school bag that was on his back. He hoped Mr.Watanabe didn’t include the backpack in the box statement. He made two trips down to the car putting everything in the car trunk. He was still out of it it hadn’t hit him until Mr.Watanabe started driving away with Izuku in the back of the car. He stared out the window tears filling his eyes and then trickling down his face.
She abandoned me….I am alone…..I am 10 and quirkless what family will take me?
Why me?
Why me?
Why me?
Why me?
Why me?
What did I do to deserve this?
A sniffle and a small sob escaped him as they left his street and he was now really leaving home as they went deeper Into the red light district.
——
Arriving 25 minutes later at a big building that resembled a school in some ways the car stopped. A older woman with graying hair, pinkish skin and tentacles for fingers came out the front door and approached the car. Mr.Watanabe got out and greeted the woman he handed her a file and started talking to the woman while gesturing to the car. Izuku tried to dry the tears he didn’t want to look weak. Mr.Wantanabe opened Izukus door and introduced him to the woman who he found out was the person running the group home.
“Midoriya this is Hana Kubo you may address her as Mrs.Kubo.” Mr.Watanabe turned to Izuku and said “ I expect you to treat her with the utmost respect. You will most likely be living here for a while since it will be hard to find a home for you. I will check I will check in with you soon.” Mr. Watanabe opened the trunk and helped Izuku get his things from the back. Once all of his things were out of the trunk Mr.Watanabe bowed to Mrs Kubo and then got into his car and drove off. Izuku watched his car pull onto the street then turned to Mrs.Kubo.
“As Mr.Watanabe said my name is Hana Kubo, you will address me as Mrs.Kubo or ma’am. We will walk and talk grab your stuff. I will only explain once.” She said as she grabbed on box then started walking away. Izuku scrambled to grab the rest of his stuff and hurried to catch up to her. She held open the door for him then continued talking “we house 25 kids here all are two to a room. You will be given a bed, sheets, blanket and pillow. You have one bookshelf for your stuff and a small dresser for your clothes. There is a storage room that you can put anything else in, your roomate will show it to you, we provide only dinner during the school year and then breakfast and dinner during breaks. We will help with school supplies and uniforms. There are three caretakers me, Mr. Ogawa and Mrs. Hayashi. You are expected to do the chores we give you and if you don’t then you don’t get dinner that night. You must be in school and avoid trouble. We expect you to be in this building by 7pm. Dinner is at 5:30 we don’t care if you go but know that we do not have snacks or left overs.” All of this is rapid fire said to him as they go up a stair case and down a hallway untill they get to a room with a name plate on it that read ‘Ritsu Ishibashi’ as she knocked them opened the door she kept talking while entering and placing the box on a bed. “Ritsu is your roomate he has been here three months and can tell you more. I want it to be made understood, if you cause any trouble you will be kicked out and not welcome back.” She said this then swept out of the room leaving Izuku there alone.
