Prologue

'I never imagined that a day like this would come as long as I was breathing.. I vowed on the day he was born that I would always protect him; no matter what the cost may be.. My precious child.. I am so sorry I failed you..'

"Where is he?! W-Where is my baby boy?!" Inko Modoriya cried out in a panic as she exited out of a elevator that had taken her up to the fourth floor of Musutafu General hospital. Tears of emotional and mental agony rolling down her cheeks as she bolted straight towards the large curved front desk of the hospital level and shot the nurses behind the desk a death glare. The green haired woman's eyes were clearly full of terror and impatience. Understandably so considering how close she was to the person she was seeking; She was his mother after all.

Just nearly an hour before she had arrived at the hospital, Inko had gotten a disturbing phone call from said hospital and was informed that her son, Izuku, her precious angel of a child who was all she had left in this world, and who was all that mattered in her life, had been found brutally beaten in a alley way somewhere in Musutafu, and was brought into Musutafu General Hospital for emergency medical care. All it took was hearing the name of her child and the name of the hospital before she dropped her home phone on the couch without even ending the call, and she made her way over to the hospital as fast as she could.

Inko was a well fit, shapely, an overall attractive young looking woman, though her looks were frightfully deceiving as she was actually in her early fourties and she looked like she could be in her mid or early twenties.

"Wh-What is the name of the patient you are looking for m-ma'am?" One of the nurses that were posted behind the desk asked the distressed greenette anxiously as there was a light patch of sweat drenching her forehead. The nurse attempting to fight back against the fear she was receiving as Inko's glare was definitely one that was not to be taken lightly in the slightest. She swallowed a lump in her throat as she struggled to remain composed. Her heart rapidly and frantically pounding against her chest, and her legs were even trembling as she could feel the full power of the greenette's gaze piercing her soul.

"Izuku Mido-" Inko shook her head as she nearly made a mistake. "H-Hayakawa!" Inko screamed as she lightly gritted his teeth, her glare intensifying as she pounded her fists on the counter. "So you better tell me where he is, or I swea-"

"Inko, please do calm yourself down. You are in a hospital for crying out loud. There are other patient who you are preventing from getting the rest they need to recover from their own injuries."

Just in time to save the nurses from the wrath of Inko's frustration and having them sigh deeply in relief, an old female doctor with short height and grey hair that was tied into a bun spoke up from behind the greenette mother.

Immediately recognizing the voice of the old woman, Inko reeled in her anger slightly as her eyes narrowed and she managed to release a somewhat calm breath after close to about an hour of not being able to do so. "Chiyo.." She whispered under her breath as she then bowed to the nurses in apology. "I'm deeply sorry.." She softly uttered a bit reluctantly, earning only nervous nods from the three sweating nurses.

She then turned around and look down at the old doctor before her, huffing as the two made eye contact with one another.

"How've you been Inko dear?" Chiyo Shuzenji questioned as she flashed Inko a warm smile, both of her hands resting together atop of her syringe cane in front of her. "My, it certainly has been quite awhile, hasn't it? You look like as if you haven't aged a day."

Inko softly glared and quietly hissed at the small doctor, obviously not in the mood for any pleasantries or catching up as she did have much bigger issues to worry about. "Does now look like it is the time to begin reconnecting?" She retorted with irritation in her voice. "Now where is my son?" She questioned with a slight raise of volume in her voice.

Chiyo scoffed as she smirked and lightly shook her head briefly with her head lowered. "I suppose that is a good point given the situation." She chuckled. "Alright, follow me; he is right this way." She turned around and began to walk down one of the hallways to lead the mother to her son, the tapping of her cane echoing with each time it lightly impacted on the hard floor.

Inko followed the doctor and walked with a pace that progressively got quicker the more they got closer to her child. The tapping of her heels echoing along with the syringe cane with each step she took. She bit down on her lip anxiously as her fists were clenched by her side, squeezing hard enough to make her skin go pale.

When they had finally reached the room, Inko shakily gasped as her hands came together at her mouth and tears once again were starting to fall from her eyes. "Oh my god, Izuku.." She whispered in a horrified tone as she froze and her legs began to tremble at the terrible sight that was displayed in front of her.

Laying down unconscious and in poor condition on top of a hospital bed covered head to toe in a full body cast was Izuku. The only part of him that was not covered in bandages was his right eye. The beeping of the heart monitor that was connected to the boy being the only sound that was heard in the hospital room for a few seconds.

Inko slowly stepped deeper into the room as she rapidly gasped, her shaking hands slowly moving away from her mouth to come to the railing of the bed when she approached it. "My poor baby.." She whimpered, her hands gripping ever so tightly on the railing as her anger, as well as her despair, rised the more she looked at Izuku.

"I won't lie to you Inko. We were very lucky that we got to him when we did. If we were even a minute later to care for him.. He would not have made it." The doctor informed from the doorway as she watched the heartbroken mother with a small frown curved on her lips when she noticed Inko's hands.

"B-But he'll be alright.. w-won't he..? He'll l-live..?" Inko questioned as she bit down on her quivering lower lip. Her dark green hair shadowing her eyes while a river of tears went down along her cheeks rapidly.

Chiyo nodded as she let out a deep sigh. "Yes, he will live. He will obviously be needing around the clock care seeing as he cannot possibly try doing anything for himself."

Inko felt a little bit more relaxed when hearing that her baby will just fine; sniffling as she wiped away the tears from her eyes and cheeks. "Good.." She took a deep, shaky breath before falling silent for a few seconds. Chiyo's eyes narrowed as she could feel the atmosphere around the greenette mother slowly change to something.. terrifying.

Inko then looked up to show her eyes...

Within the windows of her soul, were a mixture of rage, determination.. and immense hatred burning within them. Her hands let go of the bed railing and hung down by her hips and her posture went upright. Her head slightly turning to show one side of her face to the elder behind her. "Do you know who could have did this to him?" She questioned as her narrowed eye could be seen between the strands of her hair, looking at Chiyo.

There was a pregnant silence between the two women as the air around them became colder for the elder. Chiyo exhaled deeply through her nose as her right hand raised from her cane to gently rub at her eyes for a couple seconds before looking back at Inko. "I do.. but you would not like to know, trust me Inko. It would be best if you just let it go."

"What?" The answer caused the greenette's body to tense and her teeth to grit as she quickly turned around and glared at the small doctor. "You can't possibly expect me to let just this go Chiyo. Whoever the bastard is that hurt and nearly killed my son is gonna pay for this!" Inko growled. "Now, tell me who he or she is now, or else." She demanded as she continued to send a death glare towards Chiyo. "And don't you dare try and lie to me." She warned with venom in her tone.

The reaction made Chiyo's skin crawl as she lightly gripped at the top of her cane. Her face lightly sweating out of fear as she knew Inko all too well, and also knew that her threats are not to be ignored or dismissed as pathetic. So knowing that, it was understandable on why she was about to cave. "His name is Katsuki.. Katsuki... Bakugo.."

Inko sharply gasped and her eyes widened out of shock upon hearing the name of her son's abuser; the last name being one she knew all too damn well. "Mitsuki's son?"

Chiyo nodded. "Mitsuki's son. Now that you know who it is you are trying to go after, and what you are getting not just only yourself, but your son as well, into. Are you still gonna go through with it?"

Inko's shock had subsided as she then turned around to look solemnly at Izuku while letting out a deep sigh. "Chiyo.. You are well aware of the reasons why I was titled 'Wrath' back in the day. So you should know that no matter who they are. If anyone has the stupidity to bring pain upon my boy. They will know what it is like to suffer this mother's fury!" Inko growled, nearly losing her temper after her little outburst, and causing the small elder doctor to flinch.

Chiyo knew that no matter what she said, she could not convince Inko to change her mind about going after Bakugo. She was an old friend and knew a lot about the greenette mother after all. She even knew what kind of person she was in the past. At a time before Izuku was brought into the dangerous world that they inhabit. "I guess that there is no hope in trying to talk you out of it then." She sighed as she shook her lowered head. "You do know that if you do this.. You are going straight back to that life, and you may never have a chance to leave it again. Are you really willing to risk everything because of this?"

Inko frowned as she silently observed her unconscious son with a downcast expression. "Will you.. please take care of him for me? Get him somewhere safe if and when you can? Preferably as soon as possible." Inko softly asked in desperation, her hands wanting to reach and hold Izuku's hand that was closest to her for comfort, but she did not want to risk causing pain to him because of his serious injuries.

Inko was obviously trying to avoid answering the question, which was enough for Chiyo to know that the greenette mother had already answered it in a different way. She nodded to Inko's question as she steadily walked up to stand beside her. "I will do what I can for the young man, but you owe me."

Inko sighed in relief. "Thank you, Chiyo. I won't forget this.. I.. I apologize for how I have been speaking to you. I shouldn't be taking my frustration out on you; you did nothing to deserve it." She gratefully, as well as apologetically, responded before she then leaned forward to plant a gentle kiss on her teenage son's bandaged forehead. "I'll be back Izuku.. I promise.." She whispered, which Chiyo overhead, before standing straight again and turning around to leave the hospital room.

"Inko dear." Chiyo softly called out while watching Izuku just as Inko was about to leave the room, causing her stop between the doorframe and look slightly over her shoulder at her. "Do not let this thirst for vengeance be your downfall. Do not let it take you away from your son." The elder warned.

Inko's hair cast shadows over her eyes as she held onto the left side of the doorframe, standing in tense silence for a few seconds before responding to the doctor bluntly. "It won't." That was all Inko had to say to respond before stepping out of the hospital room and walking down the hallway towards the elevators.

The old nurse took a deep breath as she then walked over to look out of the large window of the room after opening it slightly with her left hand. Her eyes narrowing as her right squeezed tightly on the top of her syringe cane and she began to talk to no one in particular.

"With the mess you are about to get yourself back into..."

Inko continued to walk down the halls with shadows still hiding her eyes, having on a blank expression it seemed as her tightly clenched fists swung steadily by her sides.

"I can only pray my hardest that you will make it out of there alive in the end.. Inko Hayakawa.."

Inko had stepped into the elevator that had just arrived on the floor she was on after she had pressed the button to call it up, turning around to face the doors as they started to close on her after she had pressed the button that would take the elevator back down to the hospital's main floor.

Chiyo slightly smirked as she carried on with the little speech to herself.

"Or should I perhaps call you by your real name at this point? Inko Midoriya, AKA.."

Inko's lips suddenly curved into a sly grin a second before the doors closed automatically in front of her.

"The Wicked Sin of Wrath."

Bing!

'But don't you worry my son. He will be punished for hurting you. Him, his accomplices, and anyone who dares to try and protect him. For we are Midoriyas, and they will all be reminded why absolutely no one.. fucks with the Midoriyas..'

Heyo! Well, as you can see. This is a very different kind of fic I'm doing for the very first time. XD Yeah, it's kind of weird for me as well to be steering away from the types of fics I usually do. But I actually enjoy it! It's refreshing to try something new as I usually do male centered harem fics. Now, what could have possibly been my reason for making 'A Mother's Wrath' in the first place? Well, it's quite simple actually. I was watching John Wick yesterday after about nine months since I last watched it, and this idea was just coming to me as I was watching it. God, I really have no self control. XD I've always admired Inko's character as she is the ideal mother and a fun character in my eyes. So I wanted to make a fic where she was the star and she is an absolute fucking badass! Like John Wick himself. Oh, this is gonna be fun~ lol The next chapter or two will tell how things led up to Izuku getting the injuries he got, and Inko's past will be explained given time. c: So just a heads up! Anyway, that is all I got to say for now. I hope you found this prologue chapter interesting!

Follow, Favourite and Review if you would be so kind!

Until next chapter, deuces!
