Love Ain't for the Faint of Heart

*KEN'S POV*

'Fuck me that didn't go like I wanted it to. Yaoyorozu, the Bakugos, and Inko Midoriya then the meeting with the heros.' Ken and his clones just came through the portal Eri was clinging to him like her life depends on it. I didn't mean to go off on Allmight like that but when he attacked me...the only thing I could think about, the only thing I saw were the insides of all those people. Some of them with enough control to beg for death.

When I looked at Allmight I only saw someone who instead of making sure someone as fucked up as All for One was really dead like burning his ashes to ash dead, settled for bashing his head in. Someone who had lived several of his lifetimes, someone who had taken God knows how many quirks with so many abilities, and he settled for bashing his head in instead of destroying his remains.

Handing off Eri off to my Hashirama clone I sent them to get some food and mabey watch a movie to calm her down. I needed to be alone.

As soon as they left I brought my knees to my chest and buried my head in them. "Ohhh Fuck!!!" My cry shout ripped out of my throat. I squeeze my eyes shut trying to stop the tears.

I can't get them out of my head. Sure I've seen some pretty fucked up shit. Rapist's, people so high on drugs that they barely know who they are, and even racist people who go around looking for trouble. But this...this is different. I did it. It was to help them...but it was my hands that were covered in their blood.

It wasn't the same as when I killed, those people had it coming I made sure of it. Even when I would beat people into a bloody heap they were human traffickers, drug dealers, and thugs who only want to make others lives as shitty as theirs. But these people were just unlucky. Unlucky to get All for One's attention, and unlucky he didn't just take their quirks and kill them.

Curled up in the couch I tried to think of anything else other than the mutilated faces of people I saved. It was never really personal just a selfish desire not to see others suffer. All for One he didn't do anything to me personally but I'd make sure to show him true pain. Some people just have to die for the betterment of everybody else.

*GENERAL POV*

Back at U.A the heros were getting their baring back as all the info sunk in and the fear began to fade. Allmight stared blankly at the area where the brotherhood stood.

Aizawa: "What the hell was that!?, Who is All for One!?"

Aizawa's glare bore a hole into Allmight. He wanted to know who had his friend and who was targeting his students. The rest of the staff wanted to ask as well but with a red eyed glare from Aizawa had them quite.

Allmight: "No no no I killed him, and sensei's grandson? It can't be." While Allmight seemed to be having a mental breakdown Nezu decided that it is for the best to speak and let the rest know what is going on.

Nezu: "All for One is a man that goes back to when quirks first appeared. It is said that he could take and give quirks. He is the one that injured Allmight."

No one spoke for a minute. Silent contiplation faded into horror as they realized what a person with that kind of power would be like.

Midnight: "How could someone take another's quirk?...It would mean changing their D.N.A completely."

Nezu: "I don't know the specifics only that he could, and that he is supposed to be dead."

Snipe: "Do ya recon that the brotherhood was lyin."

Nezu: "I'm not sure. They gain very little from lying, other than the fact that we won't focus on them as much. No even then they have avoided and beat almost all the people sent after them."

Yagi: " Sorahiko!!! I-I have to call him. He would know if she had a son."

Eraser: "Ronin said that Allmight and his predecessors failed in killing him. What did he mean by that?"

Nezu stilled for a moment and looked at Allmight. Seeing that the man was shaking and staring at his phone he ultimately decided to take matters into his own hands.

Nezu: "That is a conversation for another time. Right now we should focus on gathering information. Eraser could you ask your contacts about the ongoing of the underground. Cementos could you look into missing persons for the past couple of decades. If what they said is true then we will have an influx of people showing up at hospitals. Present Mic if what he said about Oboro is true I think I'd be best if you were there to question him."

Quickly Nezu rushed the heros out. They had questions and wanted answers but they also understood that time is limited. If this threat is real then the best thing to do is gather Intel and prepare.

When the heros left Nezu gathered the blood that Ryu spit up and asked Recovery Girl to test it. Getting a weary nod in return Nezu marched up to Yagi and slapped him.

Yagi's eyes focused on Nezu but were still somewhat lost. Taking a breath Nezu spoke. "Allmight you need to contact Nighteye and Gran Torino. You should also call Midoriya, if he is alive he needs to know."

Giving a absent minded nod Yagi grabbed his phone and dialed. Nezu went and began to make himself tea he needed to be calm to continue on and make the best choices.

************

Ken and his clones have been trying to tell Eri that she would be living with Recovery Girl. She had not responded well. It's for the best really All for One is gunning after him and the M.L.A has made a noticeable effort to meet with them.

Ken: "Eri it's not like we'll never see you again, you just won't be living with us."

Eri: "NO! I'm not leaving!!!"

Hashirama: "Please Eri we will see you every week we promise."

Eri: "NO!"

Ryu: "BRAT! GET OVER HERE AND GO TO LIVE WITH THE NICE OLD LADY OR ILL BEAT YOU ASS!!!"

Eri: "I said No you ass hat!!!"

Hashirama and Sozu had to restrain Ryu as he began to snarl and try to charge at Eri. Taking a deep breath Ken looked at his clones and at Eri with a paint ball gun.

Ken: "ENOUGH!"

Everyone stopped. Ken looked at his clones and with a nod they left. Ken walked up to Eri who was looking down and fighting back tears.

Ken: "We aren't trying to get rid of you. We aren't trying to hurt you in any way, but some dangerous people are coming for us. We don't want to see you hurt. This isn't good bye, we will see each other nearly daily. So don't cry we won't leave you, even if we are a million miles away we will always be looking out for you. Ok?"

Sniffling she nodded meekly and hugged me. Man who know raising a child would be so troublesome. Calling for my clones I decided that we would go out as a group one last time before I ask Recovery Girl to take care of her.

************

Senju and the rest of the brotherhood were roaming the homeless district of Musutafu. While Senju healed some people and Eri watched and the rest mingled with the homeless asking if there was any trouble that they could help with.

Eri was wearing a medical mask and a hoodie a size too big with the hood covering her head. Before we left to meet with recovery girl Ken gave her a few items.

A tattoo that went around right wrist. It looked like a vines with roses. This tattoo was a shield that absorbed kinetic energy, the energy whent into her reserves further helping them grow. It would form around her body and would activate at will or if a force that could do considerable damage was about to hit.

Knuckle knives that she could sommon at will. They could produce electric and wind like blades at will. They wouldn't affect her unless she powered them to full capacity and even then the worst she would experience is a light shock or some minor cuts.

The last item is a slingshot. It could produce its own pellets that could cause a small explosion or could shoot a small ball of electricity. The pellets could ricochet up to ten times before going off and without losing any momentum.

It didn't take long before Recovery Girl to arrive and she looked haggard. Between Ronin and Senju they had delivered all the people who were formally nomu who lived in Japan to different hospitals and even to U.A. They had done like wise to the other countries and the different people they had recovered.

Recovery Girl had been called all over Japan to see and help them. She had a tired look as she approached.

RG: "Im sorry for not coming as often these past few weeks have been very busy as I'm sure you know. Senju you did an amazing job they are in perfect health."

Senju: "I'm just glad that they're all ok. There were many times were I wasn't sure if any of them would make it."

RG gave him a sympathetic look. Her attention quickly went to Eri....and her tattoo.

RG: "What's that." Her deadpan face and voice couldn't hide her anger at the fact that a child had a tattoo.

The brotherhood in its entirety froze. They all began to sweat nervously.

Eri the sweet sumer child that she was spoke up in their (Ken's) defense. "I'm one of em this is proof of it!!!" Her little arm raised up to the sky. Ken was going to try to make it a bracelet but she thew a tantrum saying Iif they wouldn't give her a tattoo then she wouldn't go with Recovery Girl.

Recovery Girl's stare bore into all of them especially Senju's letting out an awkward cough Senju spoke. "Yea she refused to go with you unless she got one. It was the least we could do she is family and we are sending her away."

Seeing the absolute pride in Eri's eyes Recovery Girl's gaze softened. "I see *sigh* hello sweetie I'm Recovery Girl but you can call me Chiyo."

Eri: "I'm Eri...I'm supposed to go with you."

After the introductions they began to convers. It lasted long into the night Eri revealed her desire to be a medic like Senju and had the clone crying.

In the end she ended up leaving with Chiyo and when Ken went back to his usual hideout he sent his clones out and looked at a picture of Eri him and his clones. They all had icecream and were smiling.

He would miss having her around but war was coming and it would be bloody and brutal. It was no place for her.

It's for the best.
