Chapter 4
Shota's POV
I honestly didn't know why it was so important that the Problem Child had an older sister. Each family has its own sectrets and issues and others don't need to know about them.
Thinking about it as I was talking to her mom she mentioned something about a girl living with them when I asked if they were living just the two of them. I didn't ask her any details because it was none of my business.
Izuku is my favorite of the whole class because he is humble, hardworking, responsible and honest. He never judges anyone until he gets to know them and doesn't care what kind of quirk someone has.
He is always helpful and very determined and is the most calm of the class. True he was the most irresponsible in the first but he grew out of that and became more responsible, patient and calm when he adopted Eri. The only ways to get him off balance was to say something bad about Eri or his mom.
For this I think his sister is a very important person in his life because the last time he was so upset when one of the students called Eri's quirk a curse and made her cry. It took me and Toshinori a good 15 minutes to get him away from that student.
Even without his powers he managed to reject us and whisk this student away, it was clear that someone had taught him well. It seems that it was his older sister. I looked at the rest in the room
'' Why did you guys need this. I told you to leave it alone. To let me approach this subject and it occurred to you Nezu to tell him that his sister I repeat SISTER was dangerous to him and Eri. You don't need to know everything Nezu. Maybe his sister has a dangerous job and that is why there is little about her in the system have you thought about it.... There is no power to you'' I said and left the office.
I headed toward the exit hoping that I could talk calmly with Izuku without others interfering. What many people don't know I have a strong bond with him and outside of school or we are somewhere alone I let him call me by my first name. I caught him not far from the school
'' Izuku wait a moment'' I called out and to my surprise he listened to me
'' What's the matter Shota'' he asked and I could hear the irritation in his voice. I don't blame him for that
'' I want to talk to you in peace without others. I understand your nervousness but I have no bad intentions. Believe that I appreciate my privacy and apologize for others trying to pry into yours. Everyone has the right to a secret and it is none of others' business '' I said calmly and he nodded his head.
He took in a deep breath '' Thank you for your honesty Shota and no need to apologize for others. I know that you are worried about my safety and Eri's safety because you have never met Zira and you don't know her'' he said
''If you want you can come home with me and meet her as long as you don't tell anyone what you found out'' he added seriously looking into my eyes. I nodded my head seeing the seriousness of the matter
'' Can you tell me what she is like?'' I asked cautiously after a moment of silent walking to the station. A smile appeared on his face
''Zira is a person you can always count on no matter the problem. Ever since I can remember she has always been there for me. She took care of me when my mother had to work, cooked for me, sang me to sleep. She is like a guardian angel for me. When I didn't get Quirk on my 5th birthday like the rest I was rejected by others. For two my childhood friend harassed me through until Zira found out about it and she started defending me. She talked to him about it and what the consequences of his behavior might have been. It took him some time to regain my trust and hers, but we were best friends again " he said
" She taught me the art of self-defense when I asked her to teach me and when I finally got my Quirk she helped me control it. When she is home she trains with me and sometimes with Katsuki so that we know how to defend ourselves without the Quirk. She is just great. From her character she is : hardworking, patient, protective, strong, responsible, clever, can be cold to people she doesn't like or doesn't know well. She is my main reason for wanting to be a hero. She is my role model and my Number 1 of people I admire '' he said with a tender look on his face.
Seeing him talk about her I understand that Zira is an important person in his life and holds a major place in his heart. I am glad that he has someone he can always count on and has his back. I can't wait to meet her and hopefully befriend her.
I don't care what she does or what her Quirk is if Izuku and Eri are safe and happy with her nothing more is needed for me. I know Nezu and the others will want to know everything I know about her from me, but I won't betray their trust. True, I am curious about what she does for a living and about her Quirk, but if they don't want to tell me I won't get involved in their affairs.
If her Quirk is as strong as they say it is then it is better that few people know what it is. I hope she will like me and maybe train with her if she is good at it as he says.
I noticed that we were taking longer than expected to my perplexed face he replied '' I forgot to report with my mother that I changed my address of residence. Zira bought a bigger house for us. I must warn you that Zira has two tigers rescued from the black market when they were small.
Because they became so attached to her she got permission to keep them with her. These two tigers are named Snow and Night. When you see them you will know which is the king. They are not aggressive until provoked or given a command to attack given only by Zira.
Don't count it they are huge teddy bears and like to cuddle and play'' I nodded and soon we were off the express. We walked a bit into a more quiet area and not long after that we came to a beautiful house. Izuku roused me from his state by poking me and we headed inside
'' Dear family I'm home'' he called out and Eri quickly appeared in front of us
'' Daddy'' she shouted joyfully and hugged him tightly
'' Have you been good to your aunt'' he asked
'' She behaved like a true Angel as always'' I heard a lady's voice say. I looked into the dtrone of the voice and saw a beautiful young woman.
