My Hero Academia: The Legacy of Lost Numbers

The room is filled with a tender silence as Izuku and Ochaco sit by Ellen's bedside, their hearts swelling with love for the newborn boy.

Suddenly, they hear a soft groan, and they turn to see Ellen stirring. Her eyelids flutter open, revealing tired yet loving eyes. As she slowly takes in the sight of them with the baby, tears begin to well up in her eyes.

Ellen: whispering, her voice hoarse "Mr. and Mrs. Midoriya…"

Izuku looks up, his heart racing as he sees Ellen awake. He gently places the baby back in her arms, and Ellen instinctively cradles him, her eyes filled with an overwhelming mix of emotions.

Ellen: tears streaming down her cheeks "I'm sorry… I didn't want to worry you. I did this to protect him."

Ochaco quickly wipes her own tears, her voice filled with warmth and understanding.

Ochaco: softly "Ellen, you don't have to apologize. We understand why you did what you did. You were protecting him… and us."

Ellen looks down at her baby, her heart swelling with love and relief.

The sight of him brings a flood of emotions—joy, fear, and a deep sense of responsibility. She gently runs her fingers over his tiny face, feeling the weight of her choices.

Ellen: voice trembling "He's so precious… I was so scared, scared of what my father might do. I thought it was safer to hide…"

Izuku kneels beside her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. His eyes are filled with compassion and resolve.

Izuku: "You don't have to be scared anymore, Ellen. We're here now. You're not alone. We'll help you protect him."

Ellen looks up at Izuku, her heart aching with gratitude. She knows she can trust them, and the weight on her shoulders begins to lift.

Ellen: sniffing, a soft smile breaking through her tears "Thank you. I didn't want to carry this burden by myself. I was afraid… afraid of what would happen if he found us."

Ochaco: leaning closer, her expression sincere "We'll figure this out together. Family means standing by each other, no matter what."

Ellen nods, feeling the warmth of their support wrap around her like a comforting embrace. The love in the room is palpable, a promise of protection and unity against whatever challenges lie ahead.

Ellen: taking a deep breath "I want him to have a normal life. He deserves that. No legacy, no throne… just love."

The room is filled with an air of determination as Izuku gazes into Ellen's eyes, his expression unwavering.

He can see the lingering fear in her face and knows that she needs reassurance. He takes a deep breath, ready to convey his resolve.

Izuku: firmly, with conviction "Don't worry, Ellen. Have you forgotten that I'm the No. 1 Hero of the world? There's no way I will let him hurt you or my grandson."

Ellen's heart swells at his words, and she feels a sense of security begin to replace her fears.

The strength in Izuku's voice resonates within her, reminding her that she is not alone in this fight.

Ellen: nodding slowly, her voice trembling with emotion "Thank you, Izuku. I just want him to be safe…"

Ochaco steps closer, placing a gentle hand on Ellen's arm.

Ochaco: supportively "We'll do everything we can to protect both of you. You're part of our family, and family looks out for one another. Together, we can face anything that comes our way."

Ellen gazes down at her baby boy, who is peacefully sleeping in her arms, and feels a flicker of hope ignite within her. She knows that with their support, she can face the challenges ahead.

Ellen: softly, with a newfound determination "I'll do whatever it takes to keep him safe. I want him to grow up knowing love and kindness, not fear."

Izuku's expression softens, and he smiles reassuringly at her.

Izuku: "He will, Ellen. With you as his mother and us as his family, he'll have everything he needs to grow up strong and happy. I promise."

As the weight of her worries begins to lift, Ellen feels a warmth envelop her. For the first time in a long while, she believes that everything will be okay.

The love of her friends and family surrounds her, and she knows they will fight together to protect this new life.

Ellen: gazing up at Izuku and Ochaco "I'm so grateful to have you both by my side."

Ochaco: smiling brightly "Always, Ellen. Now let's focus on you and your little one. You need to rest and regain your strength."

Izuku nods in agreement, his voice gentle.

Izuku: "We'll be here for you, and we'll figure out the next steps together. For now, just focus on healing and enjoying your time with your son."

Ellen looks at Izuku and Ochaco with hope in her eyes, encouraging them to choose a name for her newborn son.

The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as they consider the significance of this decision.

Ellen: smiling softly "Please… name your grandson."

Izuku and Ochaco exchange glances, both feeling the weight of the moment. They want a name that embodies strength, courage, and the legacy of Toshinori and Ellen. After a moment of contemplation, Izuku speaks up.

Izuku: thoughtfully "What about the name 'Hawk'? It carries a lot of meaning."

Ochaco nods in agreement, her eyes lighting up.

Ochaco: "Yes! Hawks are known for their keen eyesight and powerful hunting skills. They symbolize vision, perspective, and intuition. I think it represents Toshinori's strength and your resilience, Ellen."

Ellen's heart swells as she listens to their reasoning. The name resonates deeply with her, and she can already envision her son growing into someone who embodies those qualities.

Ellen: tears welling in her eyes "Hawk… I love it. It's such an honorable name, and it truly reflects both of you. Thank you for choosing something so meaningful."

Izuku smiles warmly, feeling a sense of pride in naming Hawk.

Izuku: "Hawk will carry the spirit of his parents and the strength of our family. He'll be independent and determined, soaring above any challenges he faces, just like a hawk."

Ochaco reaches out, gently touching Hawk's hand, feeling the warmth of his small fingers.

Ochaco: "With a name like Hawk, he'll grow up knowing he has the support of his family, and he'll always have a vision for his future."

Ellen gazes down at her son, her heart filled with hope and gratitude.

She can feel the love surrounding them, and she knows that with a name like Hawk, her son is destined for greatness.

Ellen: whispering to Hawk "Welcome to the world, Hawk. You are so loved and cherished. I promise to raise you with all the strength and love I can give."

The atmosphere in the room shifts to one of light-heartedness and laughter as Ellen, Izuku, and Ochaco reminisce about Ellen's pregnancy.

Ellen settles back into her bed, cradling baby Hawk in her arms. The bond between them feels more profound as they share stories and experiences.

Ellen: with a playful smile and a hint of embarrassment "You know, during my pregnancy, I sometimes felt like I was carrying a dinosaur in my belly. With Toshinori's Devil powers and my Divine powers combined, it was like my body was preparing for a giant!"

Izuku chuckles, his eyes lighting up at the thought.

Izuku: "A dinosaur, huh? That sounds intense! I can only imagine how powerful those kicks must have felt!"

Ochaco laughs, joining in on the teasing.

Ochaco: grinning "I can picture it now: Ellen, the Goddess of Light, carrying around a mini-Devil! It must have been quite the sight!"

Ellen giggles, her cheeks flushing slightly with embarrassment.

Ellen: "It was definitely a challenge! I had cravings for the weirdest things, too—like giant sandwiches and pickles! I thought I was going to burst!"

Izuku leans closer, intrigued.

Izuku: "What else? Tell us more! We want to know everything about your experience."

Ellen smiles, her heart warming at the thought of sharing her journey with them.

Ellen: "There were days when I felt so heavy and tired, but then I'd feel Hawk moving, and it would all be worth it. It made me realize how strong I had to be… and how much love I had for him already."

Ochaco nods in understanding, her own experience as a mother coming to mind.

Ochaco: "It's incredible how much love can grow even before they're born. You did an amazing job, Ellen. Hawk is so lucky to have you as his mother."

Ellen gazes down at her baby, feeling the warmth of their words fill her with pride.

Ellen: "Thank you. And I'm glad I have you both by my side. I want Hawk to know the strength of our family and the love that surrounds him."

Izuku smiles warmly, feeling the joy and hope radiating from Ellen.

Izuku: "With a name like Hawk, he'll have the spirit of a warrior. He'll be brave and strong, just like both of you. And we'll all be here to guide him."

Ellen looks up, her eyes shimmering with gratitude and love.

Ellen: "I can't wait to see him grow up surrounded by this kind of support. Thank you for being there for us, for everything."

The atmosphere in the room is filled with warmth and laughter as the conversation continues. Izuku and Ochaco, still buzzing with joy over the arrival of baby Hawk, turn their attention to Eva, who has been quietly watching them with a soft smile.

Izuku: with a playful grin "So, Eva, when are you and Izana going to give us our second grandchild? We can't wait to have even more little ones running around!"

Ochaco nods enthusiastically, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Ochaco: "Yes! A little sibling for Hawk would be wonderful. Just imagine the chaos and joy!"

Eva's smile widens, but there's a hint of hesitation in her expression. She takes a deep breath, knowing that the past few months have been challenging for her and Izana.

Eva: gently "After Toshinori's death, Izana is still recovering. It's been a lot for him to process, and I want to make sure he's in a good place before we think about expanding our family."

Izuku's expression shifts to one of understanding and empathy. He leans closer to Eva, wanting to reassure her.

Izuku: "I completely understand, Eva. It's important for both of you to take the time you need to heal. We'll support you in whatever you decide."

Ochaco places a comforting hand on Eva's arm.

Ochaco: "Absolutely. You both have been through so much. Focusing on each other and your healing is what matters most right now."

Eva nods appreciatively, her heart warming at their support. She feels grateful to have such a loving family surrounding her.

Eva: "Thank you. It means a lot to us. We want to be ready to welcome another child when the time is right."

Ellen watches the exchange, feeling the love and bond that unites them all as a family. She knows the journey of healing is essential, and she respects Eva and Izana's decision.

Ellen: smiling gently "When the time comes, I know child will be just as cherished as Hawk. Family is everything, and I can feel the love in this room."

As they continue to talk about the future and the joys of family, the atmosphere remains filled with hope and warmth.

They understand that life may have its challenges, but together, they will navigate them, always supporting and loving one another.

The promise of new beginnings lingers in the air, and they look forward to the day when they can celebrate even more new lives together.
