Chapter 1: Tamo Midoriya

In the vibrant streets of Musutafu, there lived two brothers, Tamo and Izuku, who were bound not only by blood but by a profound desire to become heroes. Their unwavering admiration for the Symbol of Peace, All Might, knew no bounds. However, their dreams were shrouded in disappointment as they shared a common fate - they were both born quirkless.

Tamo, the elder of the two, always carried a weight on his shoulders. With their father working overseas and a year's gap between them, he assumed the role of a protective older brother. From a young age, he stood up for Izuku and shielded him from the harsh realities of a world that viewed their quirklessness as a weakness. They were determined to prove everyone wrong.

The Number One Hero, All Might, was their beacon of hope. His powerful presence inspired the brothers, igniting their aspirations to become heroes capable of saving others. But the bitter truth remained - they lacked the innate abilities most others possessed.

When the news of their quirklessness struck, Izuku was crushed. His dreams seemed shattered, and it was Tamo and their caring mother, Inko, who tried their best to console him. They were no strangers to adversity, having endured relentless bullying. Tamo was resilient, brushing off the taunts and jeers that were directed at him. However, the same could not be said for Izuku, who masked his pain with a smile, burying his sorrow deep within.

Tamo could see through the facade his younger brother wore. He knew the toll the bullying was taking on Izuku's spirit, but he also knew that the dreams they shared were too important to abandon. So, he fought relentlessly to protect his brother, regardless of the personal cost.

Years passed, and Tamo and Izuku became well-known figures in their neighborhood, always lending a helping hand wherever it was needed. But one day, as they headed home from school, their lives took a dark turn. Under a bridge, a sinister presence emerged from the sewers - the Sludge Villain. It lunged at Izuku, threatening to consume him.

Tamo's heart raced, fear gripping him as he watched the nightmare unfold before his eyes. Yet, in that terrifying moment, an inexplicable surge of courage overtook him. His body moved on its own, propelled by an unshakeable determination to save his brother. Tamo fought with all his might to free Izuku from the clutches of the Sludge Villain.

But salvation came from an unexpected source. A mighty voice boomed, "I AM HERE!" It was All Might, the Hero of Heroes. With incredible strength and unwavering resolve, he swiftly defeated the Sludge Villain, rescuing Izuku. The relief was overwhelming.

Once the danger had passed, All Might noticed the journal clutched in Izuku's trembling hand. When he agreed to sign it, his eyes widened as he read the name inscribed on its cover. Midoriya. "These two are -" he began.

Tamo, concerned for All Might's well-being, inquired about his condition. The hero assured him he was fine but emphasized that rushing into danger was not advisable. It was then that Tamo made a heartfelt request, hoping that he and Izuku could aspire to be heroes like All Might.

However, the hero's response was not what they had expected. All Might's words stung with disappointment, "No, I am sorry."

Tamo and Izuku were left bewildered and disheartened. But the hero's pause and the gravity of his gaze hinted at a hidden truth. All Might asked Tamo to stay behind while the police took Izuku home.

In a secluded spot, away from prying eyes, All Might posed a question that would forever change Tamo's destiny, "I'll ask you this one time - do you want to be a hero?"

With determination etched on his face, Tamo answered resolutely, "Yes, I want to be a hero!"

And then, in a gesture that defied understanding, All Might presented a strand of his own hair. "Eat this," he instructed. Tamo was understandably perplexed but trusted the hero's guidance. He consumed the hair, feeling an electrifying surge of power coursing through him.

There was one more revelation in store. All Might looked at Tamo, his expression somber, and revealed a truth that would reshape their lives forever, "You, Tamo, and your brother, Izuku… are my sons."

The path to becoming heroes had just taken an unexpected and extraordinary turn for the two brothers, and a journey filled with challenges and revelations lay ahead.
