YN's POV
I don't know what time it is. There isn't a clock in the room. I brought my face down to my hands to rub the sleep from my eyes as the same officer from before walked in. "Hello" I said quietly

"Hello" He said back as he sat down "This is taking a bit long so we're going to move you to a room so you can sleep" He said

I nodded as someone came over and separated my handcuffs from the desk as I stood up. I walked alongside the officer quietly as he looked at me. "I'm going to let you know," He started as I looked at him "You're too young to be imprisoned for this, and besides we don't think you should be punished for what your parents forced you to do. Right now we're trying to find a place for you to stay so this room is just temporary" He explained softly

I nodded slowly but still had one question "What about my family?" I asked

He sighed "Depends on which ones, Your brother has been... difficult to talk with. Though your sister has been very cooperative and we haven't gotten to Hiromu yet. Maki and Hiromu are like you, too young to be punished for this"

I nodded softly as I looked up to see a holding cell with a bed in it. This is pretty much what I expected when they said 'room'. He opened the door I walked in and he took my handcuffs off "Get some more sleep if you can" He said before walking away

It's not like I can do anything else right now. I laid on the bed and after a long time managed to fall back to sleep.

It's been maybe a week. I haven't heard any news from anyone, anytime I see the one officer who questioned me he gives me a small wave as he walks by or we exchange a few words. I get food regularly and they gave me a sketchbook and a pencil. Drawing has always been something that I've liked. It takes my mind off things. It's all I've been able to do to keep my mind off the fact I haven't seen my siblings all week. Even though Maki and Hiromu are gonna be safe Ishibara is a different story. Also a story I haven't heard anything about. I was sitting cross-legged on my bed with my back against the wall while sketching the room around me. Again. Until I heard someone speak "Hello, YN" I looked up to see the officer that conducted my questioning.

"Hello" I said softly closing my book

"So, we've finally found someone willing to take you in. We've already gone over the boring stuff so he's waiting outside" The officer said

I felt kinda relieved but also scared. I have to get adjusted to a new family and I don't know how they'll treat me but also it's better than spending more time in this cell. I climbed off of my bed and nodded with a smile directed at him. He leads me out of the cell and down a hallway "...My siblings aren't coming too, are they?" I asked

He sighed softly "No... But it's better this way. You can all grow up into better people then if you want to find them again you have that choice" He explained

I didn't get his meaning, maybe it's just because they don't want three kids that were raised by villains in one place. That's most likely what it is. Same reason they didn't just put me back in the same place mom and dad took me from. We made it out of the police station for the first time in what felt like forever. I took in the feeling of the afternoon sun as I looked around. The first thing I saw was All Might talking with a man with black tied back hair looking tired and dressed in dark colours. They looked in our direction as the two traded a few more words before the man started walking towards us and All Might took off. "This him?" The man asked

The officer nodded stepping away from me "He's all yours" He said walking back into the building

The man nodded and looked at me "My name is Shota Aizawa, You're going to be living with me from now on. Let's go" He said as he started walking to his car.

Very direct... I followed beside him "My names YN" I said

"I know" He responded opening one of the back doors for me     

I slowly climbed into the backseat as he closed the door and got into the driver's seat. We sat in awkward silence for a while as we drove. I was keeping myself occupied by looking out the window but If I'm gonna be living with this person I should get to know them at least a little "Soo... You're a Pro-Hero?" I asked

"What makes you say that?" Aizawa asked

"Casual conversation with All Might" I responded with a hum

He nodded with a small sigh "Eraser Head" He said which must've been his hero name

That's where our conversation ended and we went back to silence. This silence felt more awkward because we could talk to each other but were choosing not to. Eventually, we pulled up to a small quaint 2 story house.  Still bigger than my old house. "I wanna explain something before we head in," Aizawa said as he looked at me and I looked back at him "I'm not doing anything more than having you live with me. Based on the background you are your siblings share they wanted you three to live with heroes so we can monitor you while you grow up. All Might asked me to look over you and I agreed since they didn't have many other options. Don't expect me to act like a dad." He finished before exiting the car

I spent a few seconds thinking about what he said before also exiting the car. He was waiting for me by the door and opened it walking in. I followed looking around "It's not much but it's nice" He said with a sigh as a brown cat walked around the corner towards him. "This is Aki, by the way" He said petting it

(AN: Let's be honest Aizawa definitely has a cat, also Google Translate said that Aki means Autumn soooo... I hope it was right)

I nodded while looking around the rest of the house. Aizawa showed me around the house and ended the tour by showing me my room.

Timeskip a few years
Despite what Aizawa said when we first met he started doing things for me more than just letting me stay in his house. Our conversations became less awkward and more common when we saw each other. Aizawa came home rubbing his eyes tiredly "Hey Aizawa" I greeted as I was making myself dinner.

Aizawa used to get home late so he told me I needed to make my own dinners which was fine but since he's started working at UA He's coming home at more regular times. "Hey YN" he waved walking to the fridge

"How was work? By the way, I fed Aki" I said

"Thanks. It was fine. A lot of the same, How about you?" He asked

"Fine. Everyone's been talking about applying to one of the hero schools once the year is over" I sighed

"Sounds about right. classes will always be like that" Aizawa hummed "What about you? I don't think I asked what you wanted to do?"

I sighed "With my quirk, I just wanna step away from the hero thing and draw" I said

"Really? I thought you'd be more eager to try your hand at the hero business" he tilts his head

"Not with my quirk" I mumbled, You think you could do that?... You can't be that. That's why we took you in. Hero society doesn't help people like us. We were all born with the quirks of criminals, that's why you run with the family.

I put my now cooked food into a bowl and waved to Aizawa as I made my exit from the kitchen before the conversation continued.

Aizawa's POV
I sighed seeing my breath in the cold night air. Tonight's patrol has been boring. Which is better for a hero, means no crimes are being committed tonight. The quiet is also nice, it lets me think more clearly. "Eraser!" I heard a voice behind me as I turned around then sighed

"Could you keep it down All Might" I rubbed my eyes

"Sorry" He chuckled sheepishly

"What do you want?" I asked as I kept walking

He followed beside me "Do I need a reason to talk to you?"

"Guess not" I shrugged

We talked for some time while keeping our ears out for anything that needed our attention. The good thing about All Might at night is fans aren't constantly around him. " So, how's that kid doing?" He asked

"Good. Well," I remembered the odd conversation we had the other day "We had a conversation about what he wanted to do later in life and when I brought up being a hero he got quiet, talking about how he couldn't" I sighed scratching the back of my head

All Might hummed "Maybe he just doesn't want to be a hero"

"I'd be fine if he said he didn't want to but he only phrased it as he couldn't. Something about his quirk specifically" I sighed

"He might just not have confidence in his quirk" All Might gave a shrug

"I don't think it's that simple though, He's been fine to use his quirk in other situations, even training with me to make it better, it's just using his quirk to help."

All Might was about to speak before we hear an explosion a few blocks down. Like that our conversation ends and we rush to help whoever needs it.

YN's POV
I was laying on the couch watching the news with Aki sleeping on my stomach. Some news of a crime in progress which was always interesting. I gave a surprised chuckle recognizing Aizawa's hero name among the two stopping the crime, the other person being All Might. Two people using their quirks to better other people's lives. You think you could do that?... You can't be that. That's why we took you in. Hero society doesn't help people like us. We were all born with the quirks of criminals, that's why you run with the family. I sighed "He was right" I rubbed my eyes

I need to stop thinking about what it would be like to be a hero when I know "dad" was right. People judge heroes on their work and their quirk and if you quirk isn't the quirk of a hero things won't work out for you. "Why try and fail to become a hero when I can do something else" I scratched the back of my head.

I looked up at the TV to notice Aizawa and All Might had successfully stopped the criminals. I laid on the couch with my eyes closed for a while until I heard a door open. I groaned as Aki jumped off my stomach and I looked up at the clock, I fell asleep for about an hour and a half. I rubbed my eyes and waved "Hey Aizawa"

He looked at me then the time 'Hey. What kept you up?" He asked

"Nothing. I fell asleep on the couch while listening to the news" I said turning the TV off

"Oh alright" He responded

I got up stretching "I got to see what you did today"

"Oh, you did?"

I nodded "It was on the news as a crime in progress. It was probably being covered since you were with All Might" I hummed

"I'm gonna head to bed" I yawned

"Actually can I talk with you for a second?" He asked

I sighed "Sure, what's up?" I sat on the kitchen counter as he was by the fridge

"I wanted to ask you about that hero thing I brought up last night" He said

I sighed slightly "What about it?"

"Well, I was thinking about how you responded. If you said you didn't want to I would be fine with it but you only ever said you couldn't" He hummed

I nodded slightly "I've just been confused as to why for a while. You don't have a problem using your quirk any other time. I even train you to make it better" He explained

"I just... My quirk isn't a hero's. That's it" I sighed

Aizawa tilted his head "Why do you think that?" He asked confused

"I... It just isn't okay" I responded

"I never thought you had a villans quirk, out of all the legally questionable things you've done your quirk was never the thing that labelled you as a criminal. It was that your parents made you rob a bank with them" Aizawa stated

I just looked down at the floor waiting for him to continue or leave. Despite my hope, he continued while my "dad's" words continued to play on repeat in my head "There are definitely people that have terrible quirks but ink manipulation isn't something I'd call evil. The rule of thumb on quirks is that a quirk becomes heroic or villainous depending on who uses it. You have the ability to become a hero if you choose."

"What if I don't want to?" I asked

"You don't have to, now I just want to show you that you're quirk has the potential to help. If you don't wanna use it specifically to help people that's fine but I don't want you moping about it the rest of your life. It'll be infuriating for everyone involved" He sighed

"Well, what's your plan then, since you seem to have this figured out?" I said, still looking down

He hummed then looked at the calendar "You could sign up for the initiation at UA, that way you can try out some of what being a hero is. You can do whatever you want afterwards I'm not gonna stop or force you"

I sighed "Sure, fine. I'll do it. If I can do what I actually want after then whatever" I sighed still hearing the words of doubt

Aizawa nodded as he rubbed the back of his head walking out of the kitchen "It's getting late" He said as he started walking up the stairs

I followed up walking to my room. I can just get this out of the way in a day then pursue what I want... I should at least try to be optimistic for it...
