    Summary

    Hummingbirds: Commonly seen as a metaphor of hope and new beginning. In some cultures are are seen as a spirit of someone or something lost, returning to say goodbye.

    Izuku followed the beam of sunlight to the barred window at the top of the wall, the flash of green flickered again and then he saw it. A hummingbird sat drinking on his flower.
    Huh, Izuku thought, It looks happy, free, I wish I could fly free like that.
    Suddenly the door slammed open, the sound echoing around the room, making him flinch and turn to face it.

    Or

    When Izuku was in need of a hero most, no one came to save him, so he saved himself. Now he is free and just maybe, he can become the hero that he wishes saved him.

    Summary

    He took his backpack off and unzipped it, quickly finding the small dragon stuffie inside. "Daddy said you would protect me so you have to protect me, Mr. Draco!" He told the toy hero. He zipped it closed again and shook against the wall. A new rustling shook some bags on top of the dumpster across the alley and Izuku looked up to find another rat. He growled at it, the sound startling in the calm of the night. The rat scurried off further into the pile, but Izuku could still hear it. He could hear a lot of things. Things he shouldn't.

    He focused on the sounds, the smells. The feeling of hunger. His fingers curled beneath him, his nails growing into sharp, black points. His back hunched outwards, aches turning to fire as his skin ripped and his clothes shredded into tattered pieces. Izuku screamed as his teeth fell out and his gums bore new, sharper fangs in their place. His screams turned to roars as his skin prickled and caught on cloth before everything ceased to exist.

    Summary

    But now, as he barreled towards Earth, he couldn't help feeling a little excited.

    He always wanted to meet humans.

    Izuku, once, had found an abandoned spacecraft with tons of books in it. Books about the humans, and his home they called Outer Space.

    Those books had helped him pick out his name- ‘One’ was in the past; now, Izuku had control.

    Humans didn’t really know a lot about Space, he thought, but they were sure set on finding out.

    Except, no humans came up here anymore. He didn’t know how long the spacecraft had been there, but he’d been on the lookout ever since he found it. The books he read- he knew humans were smart creatures. So, he didn’t understand why they stopped all of a sudden. They were so close to finding him- finding everything he had found, so why?
    <>

    After a fateful crash landing into Earth, Izuku has to find a way to get back to space so can keep protecting from afar- but a certain underground hero has his own opinion about that.

    Now rediscovering the joys of life, Izuku has to decide whether to stay and be the hero he always dreamed of... or to leave, and go back to protecting this great memory from creatures that humans had no idea existed.

    Summary

    “At the moment, Midoriya is presenting at one of his lowest emotional points ever.”
    The kid was only fucking four years old right now. Goddammit.
    “How do we stop it?” the hero asked.
    Silence settled on the other end of the line.
    “We… can’t.”
