Izuku, Fubuki, and Kiri glowed green before being lifted by Tatsumaki. She deposited them in a far corner of the central plaza before floating closer to their new location.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwqLpW8uce
Seeing this, the other heroes decided to leave the Midoriya family to deal with their own. Kirishima gave a glance at Kiri while All Might looked toward Izuku, both filled with worry and concern.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFgkk90049
Nezu: “Well everyone, let’s not waste any more time. We must tend to the students and the wounded.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl2wPua200
The heroes and students are snapped out of their inner thoughts enough to start regrouping properly. As for the Tatsumaki, she floats over her little siblings lying on soft grass unconscious. Fubuki is sitting down with her back against the wall.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQQtYrLpWa
The eldest sister looks over them, and Izuku’s wounds stand out the most. She takes a deep breath, trying to calm down. She knows she can’t blow up every time they get hurt. They’re going to be heroes after all.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDC9Lwe1vW
But that doesn’t change how she feels.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGeB2TW6yq
Tatsumaki: “Give me names.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQEi4ox3T5
Fubuki: “Don’t know, but it’s dead.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcAsRIMINV
Tatsumaki: “Dead?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKaDjgL7kz
Fubuki: “Quirk beast.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck2XmxYgeD
Tatsumaki: “I see; I hope it suffered.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQdmnV4iSc
Fubuki: “It did.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3aKNiFbeQ
Tatsumaki: “…Tell me what happened.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv2QDBsQ1P
Fubuki did so but made sure to keep Apotheosis’s relation to them secret. Her elder sister was doing very well at keeping calm, but that would break her tight control.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifBei1aWjb
After the story was told, the two sisters kept silent for a moment. But it didn’t take long for Tatsumaki to start tightening her fist.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGlkaqKF4p
Tatsumaki: “How could this happen? This is U.A High School, right? They should be able to protect their students better than this.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydaJQDTUts
Fubuki: “… I don’t know. These weren’t just common villains. One of them inventing a psychic disruptor is unprecedented.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadBKri7cWR
Tatsumaki: “And it will only get worse… won’t it?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ6IzMBR1H
Fubuki can see it in her sister’s increasingly intense gaze. A familiar madness she’s trying so hard to keep down. But seeing her brother and new sister hurt so soon into their first school year? With a crazy group of villains that can prevent her from knowing when her family is in danger?
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd53ymfE0lw
It’s too much.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs4WwN2p31
The ground lightly shakes.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLQ6WNe0gb
Tatsumaki: “If U.A can’t protect them…and with those villains out there… maybe you all don’t need to be-”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcMf3LJIwz
Fubuki: “Tatsumaki!”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzBDZeUOK4
Tatsumaki’s eyes widen at her sister’s outburst, a rare sight indeed.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYtgRZQJxY
Fubuki: “Don’t.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oqzICfOmE
Tatsumaki’s shock quickly gives way to anger as she glares at her sister. But Fubuki doesn’t back down and glares back. Their staring contest continued until Fubuki spoke.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhgy6LnUQe
Fubuki: “Izuku and Kiri will be heroes. I will continue to be one. We can handle this like we did today.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg5eR8ypfQ
Tatsumaki: “Today, maybe. But are you strong enough for tomorrow?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoux7lhicfH
Fubuki: “I-I’m getting stronger.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJxmzHgYsS
Tatsumaki: “Oh? Willing to prove it to me?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUTbPXtrSn
Fubuki’s mouth hangs open at what her sister is suggesting. A part of her wants to fight her, to finally prove that she can stand proudly by her sister. To finally impress her with her power.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfqYobUby4
But the bigger part remembers the terrifying power Tatsumaki has displayed before. So she hangs her head down.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAMgofKYMI
Fubuki: “No.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xuf5dEjDc
Tatsumaki: “I didn’t think so. Then it’s decided, until I handle this situation, you three will-”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4MwkLuZcz
Then that old promise returned to her mind. The one she made with her mother, to not suffocate her family. To not be that monster from before. It’s nothing but a slippery slope.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMxHxFzmnA
Tatsumaki grinds her teeth, almost regretting making that promise. But eventually, she calms down, and the ground settles.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWE4VFu4xg
Tatsumaki: “Never mind.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDfXsfv49E
Fubuki: “Big sis?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfaObsD7Sr
Tatsumaki: “I… trust this won’t happen again. That you, Izu, and Kiri will get stronger.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwBcpD6eLz
Fubuki: “Y-Yes, we won’t let you down! Thank you.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3gBYMYWGq
Tatsumaki: “… Okay.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEipHqqMVbb
Barely holding it together, Tatsumaki sighs and flies away. Fubuki watches her fly off with a somber look.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEE8od257n
Fubuki: “Big sis… ”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnAyVk4SWS
Fubuki: ‘I have to get stronger. I have to. As for Izuku…”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMTw7hNxwB
She looks at her unconscious brother and remembers that sensation from before. That vile power that was far greater than what she expected from him.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtdth9rKQ8
Fubuki: ‘Something else I have to hide from Tatsu. I have no idea how she may react to it. Happy that he’s getting stronger or worried about the nature of such power.’
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGJ3raxdPE
She sighs and pushes herself up. Worry fills her lungs, but she breathes it out. She has to keep moving forward for the sake of her family.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUpDF8S5mx
She uses telekinesis to lift Izuku and Kiri before walking up to the other pro heroes.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1owPz2DBSW
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOqVSWZ9iq
Inko was taking the day to relax and watch some of her drama shows. She hates how quiet the house is without Izuku or Kiri, so these shows are a good way to pass the time until they come home.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BxdM7k4BV
Inko: “Bella, how could you choose Eduardo over James?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaXsBE531p
Doesn’t change the fact these shows are not the best things out there. But hey, if she can’t eat junk food all the time, then junk TV will have to do.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSUjQhOp6E
But a knock on the door got her attention. She paused and went to the door.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJMgkvJOCs
Inko: “I wonder who it is?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbsTkbRLkS
She opens it to see Tatsumaki with her eyes hidden behind her hair.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMp8o7gs5Q
Inko: “Tatsu, what’s-”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUgY8Y86os
A tight hug and the feeling of tears wetting her shirt. The mother’s eyes widen at this surprise. Tatsumaki rarely cries.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbi66SiCu8
She must be the perfect strong hero in the eyes of her siblings after all. She can never show weakness to them. The only exception is her mother, but even then, this is out of the ordinary.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktEb50CHKq
Something must have happened. Something serious.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd1NS7GlMC
Inko: “Tatsu, what happened?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTnlwHkvh3
Tatsumaki: “I… don’t know how long I can keep that promise.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd1K4hmLg4
The mother’s eyes widen even further. She remembers that time shortly after their father was… dealt with. Tatsumaki was scary back then. Controlling, overprotective, and nearly lethal to anyone who would even look their way.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57gLvvKd1j
It got so much worse when she learned Inko was pregnant. It’s not like they could stop her; even a young Tatsumaki was powerful.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjNeYPDiOL
So all Inko could do was beg after a practically bad fight between Fubuki and Tatsumaki. Beg and plead to a young Tatsumaki that was tearing the family apart.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9MuOcXOiR
She didn’t know what exactly broke through to her, but Tatsumaki saw what her actions were doing to her and Fubuki. She made the promise, and over time, she got better, especially when Izuku was born. The family healed and became what it is today. A family Inko cherishes beyond anything else.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vuldKwPrN
Inko: “Come in, tell me what happened.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsUNJPyGTr
Tatsumaki let go of her mother and rubbed the tears away before entering her home. Inko made some calming tea for Tatsu, and the two sat down at the wooden table.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUigPADt3N
Inko silently listened to Tatsumaki’s tale and tried her best not to interrupt. She won’t lie, even she was getting upset at the failure of U.A to protect their students. But she also understood that these things can happen.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCKjp1zlJ1
The world of heroes is tough and unpredictable.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9CHisPA1s
Tatsumaki: “I kept my promise, mom, I didn’t interfere more than necessary. But… it’s so hard to just turn a blind eye.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegwkllTmZC
Inko: “Sweetie, you’re not turning a blind eye. You’re just allowing them to take care of themselves. Based on what you told me, they did well.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAvNpKYbnf
Tatsumaki: “You weren’t there, Mom. You didn’t see how eerily still Kiri was or the burning smell of Izuku’s scorched arms. This… can’t keep happening, Mom. I’ll go mad.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvO2lIkFBZ
Inko: “Tatsu… ”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6px1j0ER3
Tatsumaki: “I… can’t lose them. I couldn’t bear it.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeCxkNGlBl
Inko: “Sweetie, you just have to trust them. They can-”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgJtndhCZY
Tatsumaki: “Trust? Trust! How can I trust them!? Fubuki wastes all of her time with her little group instead of getting stronger. Izuku and Kiri have potential, but they’re just kids! They can’t handle villains yet! If those villains see them as a serious threat and start to really try…”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3b2hOePVcJ
Tears start to form again in her eyes as she imagines the various horrible scenarios.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoH9FVjLWV
Tatsumaki: “They could have died, Mom! Fubuki, Izu, and Kiri could have died and I wouldn’t have even known! I wouldn’t have been able to do anything! You have no idea how it feels to have a normal day and then, out of nowhere, be bombarded with the collective pain of my siblings.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhhlpMZI0M
Tatsumaki: “What’s the point of all this power if I can’t protect my family!”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCjXGNZIKA
Tatsumaki: ‘I’m useless!’
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dpT1LYX8B
It was then that she realized that she lost control for a split second. The table was cracked, and the building was shaking. But worst of all, was the small amount of fear within her mother’s eyes.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhsLwgwjjm
Something she never wanted to see again.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8petStPtW
Tatsumaki: “I-I’m sorry. I’ll go.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1qro39tKW
Inko: “W-Wait, Tatsu-”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMfM9mNQJj
But it was too late; Tatsumaki quickly flew out of an open window, ignoring her mother’s pleas.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhWg0cL0D4
In the air, flying over the city, the eldest sibling with the largest burden wipes away her tears.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagK1e3mWRb
Tatsumaki: ‘If I can’t protect them from the villains, then I’ll just deal with the villains before they can harm them.’
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed2J869sQz
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgWKONvGxR
Speaking of villains, before Tatsumaki talked with Fubuki, they were at their hangout recovering.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1UuLUKp9s
Kurogiri was behind the counter cleaning the glass. Apotheosis was holding an ice bag over his head and eye on the couch. Tomura was drinking while sitting on one of the seats near the counter.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqcCmcTcA0
Tomura: “I can’t believe we failed! We even lost Nomu!”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEHhvG6Kyp
Apotheosis: “There’s no such thing as failure. We’ll keep trying again and again until we succeed. Besides, I still managed to get some good data, so we’ll be better prepared next time. That’s assuming a certain someone joins us.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoPa7lrMfR
Speak of him and he shall appear; Azrael walks through a mud portal.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsW29kgIm8
Tomura: “Well? Did you kill All Might?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb85Df1nmPj
Azrael: “No, just said some words and left. I wasn’t stupid enough to engage everyone by myself.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K52LkUMab
Tomura: “You wouldn’t have been alone if we fought together.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYErYwsDlv
Apotheosis: “Why commit ourselves that much to the first battle? Like I said, we’ll be better prepared next time, and we’ll win.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISZer1L3ah
Suddenly, the TV in the dimly lit room turns on. But there was nothing but a solid white. But the voice behind it was unmistakable.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEftiSx0GVv
All For One: “Well said, Apotheosis. Learn from this and keep going; sooner or later you three will succeed and become new symbols that will uproot this broken society.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlKx4WOcy2
All For One: “The Symbol of Revolution.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm2hZ5TLzR
Apotheosis smiles as he thinks about all the plans he has for the future.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAix63FOLRA
All For One: “The Symbol of Vengeance.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgXxNPePu1
Azrael’s eyes glow with hatred for a society that made him what he is.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjVDMScRlA
All For One: “The Symbol of Terror.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv7ckrXI3Q
Tomura turns the glass into dust and shakes with anticipation. His quirk and neck itch with the desire to unleash his wrath.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV9b8360Y9
All For One: “But to do that, I think it’s finally time you three you meet our… partner. The one who helped secure the quirk beasts and even helped our good doctor create Nomu.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cOeASdmuy
Apotheosis: “Really? I have been curious about our mysterious benefactor.”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRUMEloqgb
The screen turns off for a moment; the next second, a new picture is revealed. One of a quirk beast with one large eye.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar18WUWH49

Something has changed.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9KeO0pqlF
The inner world of Izuku was different.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXnzjJfoBF
He found himself alone in a vast wasteland expanse with nothing but brass and gold sand as far as the eye could see. Well, no, there was something. At the horizon, there were massive gears slowly rotating. The sound of machinery softly echoed across the dunes.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KidOzWPro
Then there was the sky. It was a dull brown, nothing special. That’s if you ignore the two green suns.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBAEYfKR2c
One, the beating heart of infinity, and the other, the shape of a sleeping phoenix.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuiiQns2TE
They beat down on him ceaselessly with dry hot fury. His skin felt unbearably hot under their fierce rays, and the sand gathered below his feet seemed to reflect that heat back at him. It was like this terrible place was trying to cook him alive.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHNuRPTmIA
But that’s when Izuku noticed what was truly below him. Deep beneath the brass sand, something was pulsating. It was an endless abyss, a red-writhing mass of chaos. If he stared long enough, he swore he could see shapes within, monstrous and unknowable shapes.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IpQUVa8an
It was too much.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjGqoWHM80
It was too hot, and he was too thirsty to properly process this place. He needed help.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZDHavfHlh
Izuku: “Phoenix! Where am I?! What is this place!?”
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOFWx2KLBd
No answer except a cutting wind that kisses his cheeks. He could have sworn he heard a little girl laugh.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29zoPtsPSO
Ignoring that, he tried to survey his surroundings. He climbed up the tallest dune he could find and looked around. As he did, he noticed something.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6NbFjSJmi
A tall figure in desert robes stood on a dune not far from the one he stood on. Although the distance was not that far, he could only hazily make out the figure. The heat caused the air itself to shimmer.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZEy1CNDle
Regardless, he had a goal. He trudged through the sands towards the figure. As he got closer, he was blessedly in the shade of the figure. Looking up at her, he could make out the outline of a feminine form.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvD83XpjM4
Yet, he could not make out any further details. The halo effect of the glaring sun behind her was too strong. But it was clear she was gigantic… and powerful.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgZMrOVCPb
Her voice, more so. It reverberated through the whole desert.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFD7Fq5KHm

A/N: I made it!
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi3rN2yFFd
Thank you so much for reading. This right here is the season 1 finale, and like every anime, breaks must be taken between seasons.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRCW082rxx
Now, I’ll try not to be gone for more than two months. But right now, my focus needs to be on a few other things. Like publishing a book, setting up another fanfic project that has been in the works longer than this (sadly not FoZ), and some grant writing.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWOJB2Xjsy
After that and more is done, I’ll return to this. I really like this story and don’t want to stop.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaEeLgkOAG
In other news, you might have noticed there is one more chapter after this. Well, that’s the interlude. It’s not really a part of season 2, but it does have some important stuff and a scene I couldn’t include in season 1.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1Ee18vGqI
I hope you enjoyed the ride so far, and please review; it feeds my motivation. I also don’t mind rewriting some things based on well-thought-out and constructive reviews.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCBf9UktF4
As for the multitude of references. I did copy some lines at the end there; I guess I have to spoil one part of it.

I swear, if I ever finish the whole story, I’ll probably have made the strongest version of Izuku that isn’t a crack fic or one-shot.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA9QiZ3nqN
Finally, Momo, Jiro, and Denki’s fight is nearly the same as the manga/anime. Because of that, I didn’t include it and decided to focus on the more important bits. Sadly, this will bite me in the foot in the long run. I’ll explain in the next chapter.
111Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U8l8366PU
Well, that’s it. See you next time, and once again, thank you so much for reading.
