Izuku's POV

Walking back inside of my shop, I turn on the lights and set my bag down on the table. I was about to start putting on my pajamas and getting ready for bed when I heard the lock on the front door click. I look back towards it and see that it has indeed come unlocked. I stride towards it on confusion and make sure it's fully locked this time. Just as I'm finally about to walk towards the back of my shop, the lights start flickering, and the front door bursts open. I shield my face with my arms and watch as the blob monsters appear once more, only this time they're carrying a sort of...carriage on their shoulders. They set the carriage down finally and out steps a Woman dressed very gawdy. She looks around my shop with her nose upturned, and finally settled her gaze upon where I stand near the hallway. Her mouth lifts up in a sneer as she looks me over.

"What a tacky little shop, never in my life have I ever seen such tacky little hats for sale. Tell me boy, do you own this business?" She drawls in her deep, scratchy voice. I can feel myself bristling in annoyance, as I find my courage and stride towards her in slow measured steps.

"I am the owner, and I'm afraid that you'll have to leave now ma'am, we're closed for the night." I tell her, swinging the front door open again.

"The door is right here, I won't ask you twice. We're closed." I repeated, watching her grow more and more infuriated by the minute.

"Of course everything in this shop would be tacky, just look at how tacky you are. How is it that someone like you seemed to catch his attention? I'll truly never understand that Man, but no matter. You, on the other hand have some guts to talk in that tone to the Witch of the Waste." She sneered, as I gasped.

"The Witch of the Waste?" I was turning to flee when the blob monsters appeared in the doorway, and I turned on my heel in time to see the Witch flying towards me. She seemed to almost pass through me, as she finally stood outside of the doorway. She smirked down at my prone form lying on the floor from where I had fallen as she told me one last thing before she parted.

"The best part about this spell is that you can't tell anyone about it. Do give my regards to Katsuki." As the door slammed behind her. I got to my feet, shakily and tried my best to walk over towards my full length mirror. I felt...off. Like my body had somehow shrunk, and my hair felt abnormally long. Taking a glance into the mirror I gasped and backed away in sheer terror at the sight before me. That nasty Witch cursed me!

"I'm...I'm a..." She turned me into a woman. My hair fell in long flowing curls and waved down to the small of my back, and my form was absolutely petite. I had a skinny waist, full hips, and...are those? I have breasts!

"This can't be happening...no, no, no, I'm a boy! What do I do? Am I going to stay like this forever? And why did she being up Katsuki? I've never even met the Wizard! That stupid, psycho Witch!" I yelled out, walking in circles and clutching my hair between my fingertips.

"I've just got to calm down. Shhhhhh. Wait! I know! Maybe Katsuki would be willing to help me break this curse! That's it! And his Castle should still be wandering around the countryside! I've got to act quickly if I have any chance of catching up to him!" Thinking fast, I gather all that u could possibly need and shove it into my bag, money, food, water, clothes, anything that I could fit in my bag I was bringing along with me. As I was walking out of my front door, I looked around and thought with sorrow at I was having to put on hold until the curse was broken.

"I'm sorry Mom, I know you're finally coming home tomorrow, but I have to do this!" I mumbled, solely before I hiked my bag up higher onto my shoulder and strode out of my home, and onto the street. I remember walking for ages, across bridges, fields, and forests. I asked farmers on my way about directions to get to the Wastes, and even hitched a ride out a few times. When suddenly a rain storm blew in, and I wrapped my thin blanket I packed around my head and shoulders. I had to keep on going though, but I paused a bit at the sight of a stick seemingly buried in the ground. I decided to try and pry it up to use as a walking stick to help walk through the mud, but as I finally freed it, it turned out to not just be a stick, but an animated scarecrow with a turnip for a head.

"So you've got some kind of curse too, huh? Well come on, let's try and find someplace dry and warm. I happen to be on the hunt for a certain Wizard to help break this spell that's been cast on me, maybe he'll help you out of your curse as well! Let's go Turnip Head!" I told him, before I watched him jump up and down along the path ahead of me.

"Hey wait! Where are you going Turnip Head!?" I yelled, watching as he slowly dissappeared from view. I sighed, well at least now he's free to roam around, and not stuck in the ground. Miles stretched before me, just nothing but endless expanses of nothing but grass and mud and rain. Suddenly I saw Turnip Head returning to me, and behind him creaking and groaning as it ambled along...was that? No.

"Turnip Head! You found Katsuki's Castle? Thank you so much!" I yelled at him in thanks, before taking off in a sprint towards the doorway leading up into Katsuki's castle.

"Just a few...more...inches. Ah! There, I've got it!" I flung myself onto the stairs before the door, and turn around to offer my thanks to the animated scarecrow once more.

"I'll never forget you, Turnip Head! I hope you break youf curse!" And with that, I opened the door and walked inside. It was very dark and ominous inside, and once I got to the top of the stairs I noticed how dirty the place was. Dishes piled high everywhere, bugs and cobwebs nearly took up the entire ceiling and walls, and layers and layers of dust sat untouched. But other than that, this magical castle was absolutely breath taking. I noticed a fire going on the stove, and so I cautiously went to sit in the chair in front of it, dropping my soaked blanked and laying it on the back of the chair beside me. I slouched down and rested my eyes as my chilled body started to warm up finally.

"I don't envy you, boy. That is one bad curse." A deep voice called out, and I snapped my eyes open and glanced around frantically, only to see nothing there.

"Who said that?" I finally questioned.

"In front of you, boy. Or should I say, girl? Let me guess, that curse of yours won't allow you to speak of it, am I right?" He answered back, and I slowly looked in front of me at the...talking...fire? His piercing blue and grey orbs staring me down in a dull sort of way.

"You can talk?" I questioned hesitantly, yet in awe of the situation that I found myself in. He rolled his eyes, and answered in an exasperated sort of way.

"Of course I can, I am the fire demon Shouto. I run the house for Master Katsuki."

"A fire demon?! Then you should be able to break my curse!" I answered excitedly, and sat on the edge of my seat for his reply.

"Maybe, or maybe not. I'll make a deal with you." He started, and I tilted my head in confusion.

"What kind of deal would a fire demon want to make with me?" I questioned, skeptically.

"If you can break the spell that's on me, then I'll be sure to break the spell that's on you. Alright?"

"I don't know...do you promise to help me, if I help you?" I asked hesitantly, bringing my thumb to rest against my bottom lip in a pout.

"I don't know, demons aren't really known for keeping their promises." He answered back, monotonously.

"Then you can go find someone else." I told him smugly, my eyebrow raised and a smirk on my face.

"Fine, if you must know this spell basically treats me like I'm Master Katsuki's slave. And if you knew him, then you'd understand why I'm desperate to leave this awful place. You should feel sorry for me. If you can figure out how to break this spell thats on Katsuki and me, then I'll be able to break the spell that's on you. Easy as that."

"Oh...alright. It's a deal, then." I said, as I felt myself drifting off into sleep. I woke up the next morning with my back practically killing me from falling asleep in the rickety wooden chair. There was a loud banging coming from the other side of the front door. I heard the sound of heavy footsteps coming down the stairs as I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep once again.

"Hey, who is this Lady?" I heard a deep and slightly cheerful voice ask from beside me.

"Just answer the door." Shouto drawled, unenthusiastically.

"But how did she even get in here?" The other voice asked in confusion and interest. I opened my eyes slightly and looked to see a man around my age with spiky red hair and muscles walking towards the door with a sort of cloak thrown on over his broad shoulders. He opened the door after turning a dial and I found myself looking at an elder man in the doorway.

"Hello Mr. Mayor." The unknown male replied.

"Good day to you Sir. Would the Great Wizard Katsuki happen to be in right now?" The Mayor asked.

"I'm afraid my Master hasn't checked back in yet, but I speak for him in his absence." He answered.

"Have the Great Wizard Katsuki meet up at the Palace. The time of War is upon us. His Majesty needs every Witch and Wizard to help aid our homeland. Wizard Katsuki must report to the Palace, immediately. That is all." And with that he was gone, and the unknown Man shut the door and turned back to walk back up the stairs and place the letter in a large tome. I finally decided to 'wake up' and put more wood on the fireplace for Shouto. I looked up and locked eyes with the stranger. Emerald to Ruby.

"And what are you doing, little miss?" He questioned with a smile.

"Shouto said that I could stay here for a while." I told him with a bright smile.

"I did not, she just wandered in here from the Wastes." He said monotonously. I shot him a glare and he ignore it.

"The Wastes? Then how do you know that she's not a Witch?" He asked skeptically.

"You really think that I'd let a Witch in here?" He questioned, half heartedly. The chime above the door went off once more. And the unknown man started helping a little girl who wanted to buy a spell. She left soon after. And I noticed that the Castle was no longer in the Wastes, but near the ocean. Another chime went off above the door.

"It's the Kingsbury Door." Shouto said.

"Alright!" The other male said back. It happened to be another summons for Katsuki, but this time under a different name than the one he usually goes by. Just how many aliases does this one man have? The red headed male shut that door eventually as well. And then turned around to look at me properly.

"Well, I need some breakfast. Are you hungry?" He asked me, and I nodded my head slightly.

"Yeah, if you don't mind." I told him.

"It's no problem! We just can't use the stove."

"And why is that?"

"Because only Master Katsuki can control Shouto." He told me.

"That's right, Lady. Don't even think about it." He told me smugly. I rolled my eyes and gave him a smug smile of my own as I put the skillet down on top of him.

"You will work for me, unless you want a certain Wizard to know of our arrangement." I told him gleefully.

"You are evil, Lady." He scolded me.

"That's a good fire." I cooed back towards him, watching his flames get larger in irritaton.

"I have another curse for you, may all your bacon burn." He cursed me, his voice taking on a dark edge to it. I just laughed in response.

"I think I fancy some tea as well!" I exclaimed in victory, causing the red haired man to laugh along as well. Then the door clicked and in walked the last person I'd ever thought I'd see again.

"Master Katsuki! The Kings messengers arrived and said you had to appear as both of your aliases." The red haired man informed the blonde Wizard that got me into all of this trouble in the first place.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. I don't fucking care about that right now Shitty Hair." He told him, exhausted. His entire being seemed different from the last time I saw him. He seemed worn out, beaten down, it unnerved me and settled like a stone into my stomache. He finally seemed to notice me cooking on the stove with Shouto, and I realized he probably wouldn't know it was really me with this damn curse.

"Shouto, what the fuck are you doing?" He questioned, confused.

"Hey, don't look at me, this chick is the devil." He replied back. Katsuki looked at me from under his bangs, and scanned me up and down, as if he were trying to remember me from somewhere. 'Yes, It's me! I'm stuck in a girls body!' I screamed internally, as I felt my cheeks growing flush once more. What was it about this Wizard that gets me all hot and bothered anytime he so much as looks at me?

"Not just anyone can bully this asshole. So who are you, and why the fuck are you in my house little girl?" He questioned roughly. His voice sounding like sandpaper and honey with how deep and sensual it was.

"You can call me Izuku, I'm your new...umm...cleaning lady?" I asked, looking back at Shouto who just rolled his eyes at me.

"Whatever. Give the pan to me." He said before literally almost shoving me out of the way.

"Hand me two more slices of bacon, and six eggs." I did as he commanded, god knows I don't need to get hitched out right now.

"So who the fuck hired you to even clean in the first place?" He asked, gruffly as he continued stirring.

"Shouto did, he's um...disgusted by how filthy this house is." I answered back, trying to hide my small smirk from Shouto who turned to glare in my direction.

"Oi! You got something to fucking say, you demon fuck?" He shouted at Shouto, and I seriously tried to hide my laughter by biting the shit out of the inside of my cheeks.

"Only that you said the f word twice in that short sentence." Shouto replied as sarcastic as ever. Katsuki literally growled under his breath at the fire demon.

"Fuck off and die." Katsuki finally muttered, before taking the skillet off of the stove.

"Oi! Shitty Hair get the fucking plates and utensils ready for fucks sake!" He yelled, before seating himself at the table, still holding on to the skillet.

"Hey, Izuku you can sit right here! I'll get you a plate and a fork!" The red head shouted, before slamming down a plate and a fork down in front of me. We all passed the food around and started eating.

"So, what's that in your pocket Deku?" Katsuki finally asked, staring into my soul with his demonic red orbs. Fuck it, this man could have my soul if he wanted it. No! Calm down gay thoughts. Wait...I guess I'm not technically gay anymore though. I reached down into my pocket and pulled out an unfamiliar note.

"What in the hell is this?" I asked, unsure of myself.

"Give it to me." Katsuki said, before I handed it over to him. But as soon as it touched his fingertips, it sparked and engraved itself as a sort of drawing on the table.

"Scorch Marks! Katsuki, can you read them?" The redhead gasped in surprise. And Katsuki scoffed in response.

"Of fucking course I can you dumbass. Let's see what it says; 'you who swallowed a falling star, oh heartless man, you're heart shall soon belong to me.' That can't be good for the table." And with that, he burned the message off of the table with one hand. Before he got up and put his sink somewhere for me to have to clean up later, and fed Shouto his scraps.

"Shouto, move the Castle sixty degrees North. And while you're at it, make hot water for my bath, bitch." And with that he stomped up the stairs. Shouto groaning in disgust behind him. The redhead then turned towards me with his shining red eyes and sharp teeth.

"Hey, my name is Ejirou Kirishima. Shitty Hair isn't my real name in case you were wondering. The Master is just a pretty difficult guy to get to know. You'll fit in just fine here, Izuku." He smiled before patting me on the back.

"God, I hope so." I answered back with my own stressed smile. I could tell that things were about to start getting interesting in this household. And living with the Great Wizard Katsuki, God knows what the hell my life is going to turn into. Only tomorrow can tell, I suppose.
