Last time...
It closed as soon as heroes, paramedics, and police filled the alleyway. I sat in the bar examining the small boy, who was still in the box.
Continued...
"What is it young master?" Kirigiri asked, I didn't answer, I just picked up the baby and all of their eyes went wide.
"DID HIS MOM DIE RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM?!" Toga yelled, I glared at her, and she instantly shut up, Dabi walked closer and picked up a note that was in the box.
"Hello, my name is Inko, by the time you read this I'll be dead, please take care of my son. His name is Izuku, he's four months old, and use the plush to calm him down. His birthday is July 15. Please tell him I love him and that I'm sorry. Whoever found him, thank you. Signed-... the rest of the name is blanked out." He told us looking up at me, after reading the death note out loud.
"If she really loved him she wouldn't have left him in the alley she died in." I said with not remorse behind my voice. He was still crying, but was being quieter. He held on to the small green and white rabbit plushie.
"What are we going to do with him?" Toga asked, watching the small child's movements. I looked down at him without an answer. What were we going to do with him? We could train him to be one of us. Or we could give him to the heroes- no that's not a choice. I want to keep him.
"We're keeping him." I told them not looking up. I could feel them look at home with shocked looks. I wasn't one to like kids, never have, and never will, but I felt as if I was meant to find this one, like we was meant to be in my arms. Kirigiri looked at the master's monitor.
"Sir-" he was quickly cut off.
"They can keep him, but it better not get in the way of your guys' work." He said before disconnecting. The small baby dropped his toy, he turned to where it fell, crying and reaching his small arms out to it making grabby hands.
"Ah! Ah!" He yelled, as he tried to get out of my grip to get his toy. "Ah! Nh! Whhhhhha!" He yelled, now trying to push me away to get the plush. I reached down and picked up the toy, then gave it to him. The baby smiled lighting up the whole room with a new found happiness.
