"W-Wo-World," stuttered Ochaco as her eyes widened in shock.

Hoga scrunched his face in confusion as he asked,"You thought he was from your plane of existence ?"

"Kinda, I mean I never would have thought he wasn't from Earth."

"Midoryia did you believe he was human ?"

Izuku sat on the couch and rested his chin on his hand as he thought. The man's bright eyes were in deep thought as he slowly exhaled through his nose. Midoryia's gaze shot up from the soft carpet and to the man by the doorway."I always thought he was a little strange, and that he has some odd word choice."

Ochaco looked at her husband for a moment before quickly turning back to Guisu."Yeah, now that Deku mentions it; he would say humanity like he wasn't one."

The blond man by the door chose his next words carefully."He always was a strange man, even compared to my race."

Izuku had to know so he asked,"If it's so hard to get here why did he come to Earth ?"

Hoga bit the inside of his cheek, and his lips wiggled as he mulled over his answer."Dakyoi was always infatuated with taking over this land."

"So he came here to rule it," reasoned Deku.

"Yes, but he didn't come here by choice. He always wanted to takeover the land and even pushed our ruler to the idea of it, but the man never conceded, however that didn't mean Dakyoi couldn't give his dream a try. After many years of serving, our king finally banished him for his treacherous acts to Earth, but it came with a price, the man's power was cut in half."

"Half !", squeaked Ochaco.

Izuku was baffled by the truth. The man he battled with for years was not even able to tap into his maximum potential and still gave Midoryia trouble."I-If he was in such a weak state while here, then why do you want me ? I took everything I had to kill him and he was apparently considerably weak compared to others from your home."

"As I said earlier, Dakyoi held you from reaching your full potential, but with your connection severed you can become unbelievably powerful, more than you could ever imagine."

Ochaco placed her small hand on the side of her head and tried to process everything."How do you even plan on doin' all of this ? I mean how are ya gonna give Izuku his power back and stop this attack on Earth ?"

"We must leave soon, there is a long journey ahead of us."

"J-Journey ?", choked Izuku.

"Indeed, we have six months to navigate the Earth and find the three artifacts."

"Artifacts ?", cried Ochaco.

"Don't tell me you believe traveling across dimensional barrier can be done simply by walking through a door. Ancient artifacts from long before quirks even existed are needed to make the jump, and they are scattered across your planet."

Izuku inaudibly whispered under his breath,"That's a lot to take in."

.....

Izuku opened the door and wheeled the large suitcase behind him. The small boy followed the man into the modest home and looked up at his parents worried and confused. Deku looked down at his young son and dropped to a single knee. The man gave his only child a forced grin and ruffled the boy's hair.

Akito looked into his father's green eyes and then past the man and to his mother. The child then asked,"W-Where are y'all goin' ?"

Izuku frowned at his son and lied,"I've got to go on a business trip and mommy is coming with me."

"When will you be back ?"

"I-I don't know."

"You're gonna comeback right ?"

"Of course, I promise I'll comeback and the first thing we'll do is go out to eat."

The young boy's eyes lit up."Really !"

"A promise is a promise," grinned the man.

"Well don't take long then."

Izuku ruffled the boy's fluffy hair once again as he stood up."We'll try not to." Izuku then shuffled over to his in-laws.

Ochaco walked toward her son and picked the little boy up. The boy smiled as she lifted him and wrapped his little arms around the woman."Ya know Mommy loves right ?"

"Of course." The boy nuzzled his small head into the crook of the Ochaco's neck.

"And do you love Mommy ?"

The small boy kissed his mother on one of her rosy cheeks and smiled,"Always." The woman pulled the boy from her neck and kissed him on the forehead.

"Don't get in trouble cause then I'll have to chase you down and beat you with a flip flop."

Akito laughed,"Okay."

Izuku stood next to Ochaco's father with his arms crossed and a familiar blank expression painted across his lightly freckled face."This isn't just some business trip is it ?"

Deku turned to look at the burly man with a light tinge of gray beginning to ripple throughout his beard."How'd you know ?"

"The look in your eyes; I haven't seen it in years."

"Am I that oblivious," chuckled Izuku.

"Obviously not cause my daughter thought you just wanted to be friends," laughed Mr. Uraraka as he slapped Deku on the back. The man's joy was quickly replaced by a serious atmosphere."But honestly, what is goin' on ?"

"We're going to restore my power."

"You're quirk," quietly whispered the shocked man.

"Yeah."

"Why ?", questioned the man in a low tone.

"Because the world's in trouble."

"I should've known you wouldn't have played family man your whole life; I guess nothin' can extinguish the heart of a hero." The aging man nudged Izuku with his elbow and said,"Don't die okay."

"I didn't plan on it," responded Izuku in a emotionless voice.

"I know that, but you have a family and t-that boy would be devastated if he lost you."

Izuku shifted his eyes to the brown-eyed man next to him."Shouldn't you be asking me to keep your daughter safe ?"

"I don't have to, Ochaco is a strong girl, plus I've seen what you'll do for her."

"And what's that ?"

"Die."
