3) the little guppy

What Bakugo didn't know was that this guppy was no ordinary fish.  In fact what he was a very tiny merman.  Izuku has been through so many owners that he could barely remember them.  His latest owner couldn't seem to sell Izuku as no one wanted the guppy as a pet so, Yagi placed Izuku into the far back of the storage area of the pet shop.  Izuku didn't know how long he sat back there waiting for the owner to come back.  Izuku must of cried every time until the point that his tears dried out.

Izuku's tank became so dirty that Izuku felt like he was going to die soon if the owner didn't come back to take care of him.  Then one day he could hear someone come to the back room.  Hope filled his body as he used what magic he had left which was keeping him alive to cause the light above his fish tank to flicker.  Izuku silently prayed to the sea gods that someone would find him.  Izuku could hear footsteps come closer until they stopped before his tank.

"What are you doing all the way back here stupid Deku? " asked a voice that Izuku didn't recognize as he couldn't see the person whom took his tank off of the shelf moving it.

Izuku was in and out of consciousness as he could hear two voices talking.  He couldn't hear what they were saying but, he knew that it involved him.  The younger voice sounded upset about something as the older voice responded.  He could feel someone take him out of his dirty tank and put into a fish bag.  Was someone actually interested in having him as a pet?  Izuku couldn't believe his luck.  He silently thanked the gods before loosing consciousness again.

Bakugo nearly took off Yagi's head when he found the guppy stuffed in the far back of the storage area.

"I had to make room for the pets people did want.  Nobody seemed interested in owning this guppy.  I actually forgot that it was back there." replied Torinoshi.  This made Katsuki feel even worse for the guppy.

"What the hell old man!" snapped Bakugo as he began to notice that the guppy wasn't doing so well.  So quickly got a fish bag making sure to fill it with fresh clean water from one of the tanks.  Katsuki carefully scooped the guppy out of dirty tank and placed the guppy into the fish bag.  Yagi watched as Katsuki worry about the little guppy that an idea came to his mind.  

"Young Bakugo since you are worried about this guppy, why don't you take him.  You can get whatever you need to take care of him for no charge." Katsuki looked at Yagi in shock.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"I am certain my boy." Torinoshi replied.

Bakugo pumped his fist as a broad smile crossed his face.  Katsuki went to work grabbing the things that he needed for the guppy.  Yagi couldn't help but to smile at Katsuki's enthusiasm.  Bakugo seemed to genuinely care for all type of animals.  A part of Yagi knew that Katsuki was special as despite his rough exterior, he had a gentle heart.

'Perhaps this is the best chance the guppy will have.' Yagi thought to himself as he knew the truth about Izuku as he been hoping to find someone to take care of the little merman.  Bakugo was young and could give Izuku the love and attention that he needed.
