The Queen’s Champions - Pt 1
AN: Yo, I am very very excited to be putting some type on the screen for this story I have been mulling over most of the day. I’m going to try my best to make this into a series.

With your champions at your side, there is no challenge or kingdom you cannot conqueror. Reader x Adult Bakugou x Adult Shoto x Adult Midoriya. Rated: PG-13 with a lil’ spice...as we move through chapters. As I write this, insert your Y/N fantasy but I will be leaning into my vision of a black reader with hair and skin color description.
LINK TO PART 2
Chapter 1: The Champions of Taiyo
Royal paper was terrible hard to rip. Seriously; what was this stuff made of!! Perhaps you were just tired, exhausted, overwhelmed; you were all of those things. But none of it gave any logic behind this indestructible paper!
With a huff and swipe of your arm you shoved the parchment off your desk and settled to rest your head against the wood. You knew when the announcement was made that the mantle would be passed down to you that your life was going to become incredibly difficult. You prepared relentlessly for every smile you’d have to give, war you’d have to lead, throne you’d have to rule. But there was absolutely no indestructible royal parchment with any lesson on how to deal with this.
This, being your predicament of champions.
You sat as the rightful heir to the throne of Taiyo. one of the strongest countries in the land. As the history books claimed it, long ago when the world was first introduced to quirks, your ancestor bore the world’s first meta ability, the glowing child. That same quirk has manifested and grown within your family, and after several years of strife and war, the rightful heir was now set to reclaim the throne and restore balance amongst all kingdoms. And here you were, said savior, scared of a few boys.
Because of your high status and prestige of heir apparent, many other kingdoms sent their best champions to serve at your side. Many were political gestures, most didn’t even want to be there, and some even had ulterior motives up there sleeves. But, there were three that stood out. Three that you would seek out their advice and confidence. Three that were so different, yet so much of what you wanted by your side.
Katsuki Bakugou – The champion from Klayd. A powerhouse of a man with a boom in his voice. A barbarian is what many around the palace called him, but to you he was oozing confidence and pride. Klayd was a kingdom that produced the strongest warriors, and was the only kingdom in existence to be able to wield the dragonborn. And, did you not mention that along with his booming personality and powerful quirk came an equally powerful dragon that turned the center court of the palace into his humble abode. You didn’t mind, he was such a lovely creature. And, deep within his heavily guarded heart, Katsuki was too.
And then there was Izuku Midoriya – the champion from Otheon. Neighboring country to Klayd, Izuku beamed with hope and optimism. He wasn’t the strongest of all the champions who made your acquaintance, he was the sweetest and kindest. He knew every staff member by name, helped wherever he could; while you were the descendant of the glowing child, Izuku was the fucking sun. And when there were moments where he had to fight, he could move mountains. But instead he was more often than not moving haybales for the farmers outside the palace walls.
Finally, Shoto Todoroki – the champion, and prince of the I-Islands. Second to Taiyo, the I-Islands were one of the most powerful monarchies in the lands, ruled by a royal family of both ice and flames. Shoto was the prized prince of the I-Islands, born of both fire and ice abilities. And while he can be cold, in the moments you two were alone and in conversation, he was warm and he was tender. You knew of the rumors of his family and his father, but Shoto stood in contrast to everything the king of the Islands was known for. It gave you hope that you could be the queen that your people needed you to be, on your own terms.
But, your coronation was quickly approaching, the champions would soon be departing to their own respective homes and kingdoms. And here you were, the spoiled soon-to-be queen, wanting all 3 of your prized champions to stay.
Could you even ask them to do that?
Would they even want to stay? No, it wouldn’t be fair. It was better if they left. All of them. Rulers of Taiyo’s past usually had one champion from a neighboring kingdom stay as guard to the ruler, personal secretary, head of the kingdom’s army, even the partner of the ruler themselves. But it was always one. Not 3!
Were you already sewing the seeds of being a tyrannical ruler? Why was this so hard!
“Your majesty…”
You didn’t’ even notice the 3 of them walk in to your study, and now there they were, standing in front of you while you lifted your head from your desk, a damn piece of royal parchment stuck to your forehead.
“Huh-wait! Go away! I’m…I’m busy!”
“Busy making a mess, apparently.” Katsuki scoffed while crossing his strong arms over his chest.
Well, he wasn’t wrong. You sure did get yourself into a mess of a situation with these three.
“Yesterday, you ordered us away.” Shoto began.
All three of them staring at you, their eyes laced with a mixture of concern and determination. Katsuki’s mostly annoyance, but hidden beneath the red orbs was a flicker of concern that only you and the two other champions could see.
But, none the less, their pooling eyes locked on you only made you more nervous, “I said I was busy. I’m trying to –“
“Figure out which champion you’ll ask to stay.” Shoto finished for you. Damnit, for a quiet man he was so observant. You knew better than to hide anything from him, or any of the three of them.
Your shoulders slumped, an exhale escaping your lips. Izuku spoke next, “We know you’re stressed about your upcoming coronation your grace. I can imagine this added layer complicates things.” Ugh, he was so fucking sweet. You didn’t deserve him, or any of them. Perhaps they all should leave and Katsuki can leave his dragon and you can just burn everything to the ground.
“Oi! You listening to us?!”
Shit. “Uh, what? Say it again.”
The sound of Katsuki’s groan felt like it could shake the room. He was so dramatic. If it wasn’t your life and lovelyhood on the line, you would find his behavior to be comical.
“We’re choosing for you.” Izuku spoke again, this time you could hear clearly his bold and brazened declaration. “We’re staying.”
We…What do you mean we?
You didn’t realize you spoke that thought aloud. Suddenly, Shoto and Izuku knelt down on one knee in front of you, “I pledge my life, my loyalty, my quirk, and my service to you, my queen, and to your kingdom..” They both said in unison. Izuku looked up towards you, before gasping a Katsuki still standing,
“Kacchan, you’re supposed to kneel with us!”
“Warriors of Klayd don’t kneel, you damn nerd!” His eyes now turned to you, “And yeah, I ain’t leavin’ either. So you’re stuck with all of us, Sunshine.”
You were very lucky to have the table to brace yourself as you leaned backwards, stunned at their admiration and their admittance to you. As much as it felt that the weight was lifted off your shoulders, your mind began racing through protocol and tradition.
“You can’t do that.” You said sternly.
“Sure we can.”
“We just did.”
“Why the hell not?!”
“You… you cant just sign your life away to me like that. Do you know what you just gave oath to? You would be foregoing your own kingdoms. Shoto you’re a prince of the I-Islands for All Might’s sake!”
He shrugged, “I guess I’m not anymore.”
“You cant shrug off your lineage!” You objected. “Look, I appreciate all of you but you have a whole life to live, don’t tie yourself to me because you want to make me happy.”
“But your majesty-“
“Izuku you just gave your oath to me the least you can do is call me Y/N.”
“Okay Y/N,” He answered, testing your name on his lips, “ But this does make us happy. You’ve been spending time with each of us the past few months and you genuinely make us happy. We don’t want to leave. And, you don’t have to choose.”
“It’s beyond ‘happy’ for me, Izuku. For all of you.” You didn’t know how to articulate it. How do you tell them all in the same room you had feelings for them beyond the emotion of ‘happy’?
Shoto to the rescue with a deadpanned, “We know you have romantic feelings for all of us.”
Did your quirk activate, or did you just feel like you were slowly burning up from the inside out? How were they all that observant? Where you THAT indiscrete about it? Gosh, what else did they know about you that you didn’t want them to know?
“How?” Was all you could ask.
“You have a terrible way of hiding things. Which you need to work on before some kingdom comes in and walks all over you.” Katsuki responded only to be met with a swift and shocked glare from Izuku.
“The three of us trained and fought alongside eachother for years during the war. When we all reciprocated feelings for you, we talked it out ourselves and came up with this plan together.” Shoto responded in a much calmer tone.
By ‘talked it out’ you assumed they had a some type of battle, Katsuki blew up something, and then out of sheer exhaustion they came to a compromise.
You couldn’t believe the ease of all their tones. It wasn’t that simple! They had to know that. You immediately ran through scenario after scenario their way.
They would have to stay in Taiyo, permanently. They seemed fine with that. Shoto pointing out that he hates his family and country and being a resident of Taiyo was a nice change. Bakugou and Izuku said they would visit family when they wanted but didn’t mind calling your kingdom home.
What about marriage? They couldn’t all be king, could they? Katsuki scoffed and scolded you for being so ‘presumptuous that he wanted to marry you’. Izuku and Shoto responded that this arrangement was new to all of them and they would figure out what worked best for everyone. One day at a time.
They would have to give up their titles. Again, Shoto really didn’t give a shit about being a prince. And Katsuki and Izuku proclaimed they could be the new champions of Taiyo.
There seemed to be one final piece. “Are you all…okay to share? There’s only one of me. And three of you. And, you’d be forfeiting your autonomy to be with other people if you choose to be with me.”
Izuku flashed a glance at Katsuki before turning his attention towards you, “You are our queen now, you’re sharing yourself with us. Not the other way around.”
You felt your eyes watering from the silent emotion that was filling your study. Could this actually work out. Well, you were the soon to be queen. You could make it work out. At that moment, you decided,
Fuck it. For them, you’ll find a way.
“I accept your loyalty, life and quirk and servitude to the kingdom of Taiyo.” You approached Shoto, pressing your lips against his own. “Shoto, I’m nominating you as my advisor. I need your intelligence I want you at every council meeting and at my side.”
“I’ll be there.” He answered, tiny flames tickling his left side.
You stepped towards Izuku next, your fingers wove into his own, a delicate kiss placed upon his lips. “Izuku, will you be my liaison to the kingdom? I need your kindness and I want you in charge with me taking care of my kingdom. “
“Right, I’ll do my best!”
Katsuki was last. You could see his ears already briming with a shade of crimson. Yet, when you placed your lips against his own, you didn’t find the same warmth and eagerness as the others. None the less, you continued, “Katsuki. I always want you to my left on the battlefield and in this life. I need your strength and I need you as my head of Taiyo’s army.”
“Heh, damn right you do.” That was the Klayd and Katsuki way of, “I’m in.”
Now, it was time for your declaration, “I promise you all as your queen I don’t take your loyalty lightly. I as a member of my kingdom and my personal guard I will protect you, care for you, and love you with my light and my heart.” You let out a deep sigh, “Okay…I think we’re on to something here. Oh this is a lot.” You hiked yourself up to sit on your desk, staring down at the mess of the papers on the floor and the potential mess that was this love square/triange/dangerous passionate shape that was your new relationship.
“We’ll let you be.” Shoto smiled softly at you. As the three of them turned to walk out, you voice echoed against the bookshelves that lined the wall.
“Katsuki…can you stay moment?”
The warrior eyed you before turning to face your direction, the tuff of his fur lined red cape swaying with the turn of his heels. Waiting until you could no longer hear Izuku and Shoto’s footsteps, your swung your legs forward, to brace your feet as you hopped off from your desk,
“How are you really feeling about this? I know the kingdom of Klayd doesn’t mimic the same boundaries of our arrangement.” Meaning, they didn’t share, period. Negotiation wasn’t their expertise and if they wanted something, there was no stopping them. So why did he just agree to compromise on a agreement of this scale?
“What, you an expert on Klayd now? You’ve been stalking me er’ something?”
“I’m serious,” You pressed, “I want to know you’re okay with this. And I’m not forcing you into something you don’t want to do.”
Now you knew something was up. He was doing the thing. The thing you had noticed when his eyes magically tuck under his blond locks, concealing his emotions that as much as he tries to hide, he so easily wears on his face. You let the silence fill the space, giving him the freedom to choose his words and the time in which to share them.
“Well since you know so much about my former kingdom you should know we’re not the most pleasant of people to be around,” He began. His words mixed with a sense of carefulness and carefreeness. You leaned in, waiting for him to continue. “I know I’m not the...strongest when it comes to that shit. That’s not who I am.”
“I wouldn’t want you that way.” You answered.
He lifted his head slightly, his blond hair revealing those gorgeous eyes. And in those red eyes was the root of his distance. “Katsuki” You hushed, “What I love in Shoto and Izuku doesn’t negate what I love in you. I now have gained the strongest champion in all the kingdoms at my side. And regardless of what you deem as faults, you are my champion. There is never a battle you cannot win, and that is what I admire most about you. You are perfect the way you are-“
“I want to kiss you.” He blurted out. “Fuck, Do I need to ask you that? What’s the damn protocol with dating a queen n’ shit-“
You closed the distance between the two of you so quickly Katsuki had to take a step backwards to catch you in his arms. This kiss was much more warming than the one prior. His lips melted into yours. His breath swirling against your own as he broke the kiss to gain the leverage he needed to slide his tongue into your mouth. As a soon to be queen, you did ‘stalk’ the other kingdoms and you knew of Klayd being fiery and passionate folk. You were absolutely delighted that in the ways of romance, the same rules applied. However, you were Taiyo, and you too had your own customs of devotion. Breaking from his lips you smiled, your blushed lips tingling against the cool air. You hands roamed underneath Katsuki’s cape to his bare chest, cascading down the muscles of his back and abdomen. His eyes widened as he felt your breath trace along his stomach, “Ah, I should be doing that to you-“ He panted, wondering what the hell you were getting him into.
Your eyes licked the top of your lids as you glanced up at your champion, “My love,
warriors of Klayd don’t kneel.”
AN: Shall we do part 2?
