Shigaraki stepped out of the time machine into a world far removed from the one he knew. The air was different, lighter, as if the weight of decades of hero society had yet to press down on everything. The streets of the quiet neighborhood in the 1970s felt surreal—people walked freely, unaware of the impending turmoil the future held. His objective was simple: find and eliminate Inko Midoriya before she could ever give birth to the boy who would one day inherit One for All.

As he made his way through the unfamiliar streets, he spotted her—a young woman with soft green eyes, laughing with friends at a café. His heart should have hardened at the sight, but instead, something caught his eye—a flash of blue hair from across the street. There, standing at a corner, was a girl with H/C, a face uncannily familiar. She wasn’t supposed to be here, yet there she was, your younger self, carefree and unaware of the gravity of his mission. His stomach twisted.

Approaching her, Shigaraki’s mind raced. He had traveled back in time to destroy a key figure in the future hero society, but now, standing before him, was his own mother, youthful and unaware of the path that would lead her son to become a villain. Your eyes met his, and without knowing why, you smiled, asking if he was lost. A surge of memories flooded his mind, the way you used to hold him, how you would comfort him before you disappeared from his life.

The mission, his hatred for heroes, everything felt distant now. Shigaraki’s resolve faltered as you spoke to him with a warmth that had long since been absent from his life. He realized that by meddling with the past, he wasn’t just erasing a hero—he was erasing his own existence. The thought of you, so full of life, so innocent to what would come, left him paralyzed. Torn between his hatred for Midoriya and the undeniable bond he felt standing before his younger mother, Shigaraki turned and fled, abandoning his mission.
