Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrZ0j9lrRc
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydqEgcyf9j
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWRGiM0L7T
His body couldn’t have healed all of that damage so quickly. Add the fact he’s not in real space and the only option becomes clear.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSoHuBWwZf
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDniVBj3NiJ
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9URYLFxSKR
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct4bzxp8je
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEWCnqbCml
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr01LDQRFS
It’s his family and how they will react to his death. He was finally on track to join his sisters as heroes. And for that dream and hope to be cut short…
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx0xa6qx0f
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc1eO3CDmr
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQOo1yvdHq
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXRLiUXCzF
It’s everywhere.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqiM3Kiwdi
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUHooRYrVz
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdQ9cYZfvL
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaDY6ivOUC
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iAvPowhp7
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSOJ1YLErX
The boy takes a deep breath, settles his mind and heart. He’s not dead. His dream aren’t broken. His family won’t fall into despair.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ7eVBz9kf
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIMG4doJsr
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3OvhhF8Ji
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSPpLtHY8q
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2racImRq2Z
“I’m not the only one and I feel I won’t be the last. Worry not child, we mean you no harm. We are here to help you.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfZw6fp0ul
Izuku: “To do what?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHRIMrvTWF
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN7vJKoVQp
Izuku’s mind is running 100 miles per second at this point. This whole situation is completely insane. If this was in the real world, his legs would have become a puddle.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh4iW67pkI
But one thing keeps him grounded.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTvhksmFg4
Izuku: “I-I-If…the world really needs me to be a hero in the future, then I will be that hero. I promise to be there.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5RZx399LX
He brings up his best All Might smile and looks into the eyes of the unknown. And for an instant, he could almost swore the entity was smiling back.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXIX6qK771
“I knew I chose well.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtCONoHTKR
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoHu90pcyt
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRIykGWZxk
“You’re waking up.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun0f1XvoUQ
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJx9CoigTDu
“That, I have no doubt.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSrGMBo6A2
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJW96TracM
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzLh5DR7Yf
“…My name is-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25FJ6dI4V1
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLxFDO40zG
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjDdJY43yq
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lAk4ROOfH
A lap pillow.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDOnYlWclH
The envy of all men world over and his sister Fubuki was gifting it him. But that’s not all, sitting next to her was Valkyrie of all people.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqCUUlqiUl
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHdJWlJvnM
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJ1xoIQr6Y
Fubuki quickly hugged him, nearly suffocating him with her chest. If she wasn’t his sister, this would be cause for celebration. But right now, the boy just wanted to know what was going on.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03zGo5e4BJ
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rsbTHeo4f
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpNCiCKnJT
Instead of answers, he felt someone else bring him into a hug. Unlike Fubuki’s though, this one was soft and gentle. He already knew who was hugging him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsXCFw98vW
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenfC0ZcVBZ
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwep98XWYcg
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs64XKwlto6
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxGkR37ShT
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr3n5k7C2K
Izuku: “Ow.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1vBmBd9QW
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg9JM0e81Q
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6EoCpg2R8
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgfEpN98zs
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3JBq6TLv8
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2gC8tDux0
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRQv0Lo0zG
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCGLo7qYXn
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAASxxpuId
Izuku: “Yes!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyCeBAyqvO
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIN4nCqBTR
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMjgQ9pKT8
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazdE91sifw
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneqekhmlSX
The place looked like a warzone!
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq7Rz1hahB
The whole gym was torn asunder and the only person around, aside from those already mentioned, was Recovery Girl. She was near enough to come and help if needed. But far enough to not intrude on the family matter.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHO21kQU9J
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8S99d6RMO
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleWsTuxAQW
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNpEBeYCsH
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOddsncEVGJ
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aDYHXsddG
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nuO68YoJB
But seeing Izuku’s charred body, he knew he wouldn’t fight back. This is partly his fault. He should have stopped this whole thing. Or at the very least, had Tatsumaki and Fubuki here as well.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2pChnJqOu
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FEBWKOymg
So it didn’t surprise him when the ground quaked with the eldest sister’s anger and worry. It didn’t surprise him when the walls of the gym were destroyed, revealing the two sisters eyeing the burned body of their brother.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEUQ7xM5MY
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHhRuGPKAH
Faster than he and the others could react, they were thrown back. Tatsumaki held Izuku up with her telekinesis while the two fretted over him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVcRILohyn
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xboSg5al5
But Tatsumaki’s tears slowly dried up and were replaced with fury. She turned her piercing gaze towards those responsible. Fubuki took over holding Izuku with her powers, as to not aggravate his wounds with physical contact.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEiE1gN5Yq
Tatsumaki didn’t need to say anything. She gently lifted Recovery Girl and placed her near Izuku. Recovery Girl breathed a sigh relief and focused on helping Izuku heal.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRn2qc1YgA
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFMcz9W4qt
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p3Yi5ZKVq
No.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSMng9YEuT
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZmObYxQhL
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnZe7s7lxV
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ClbD6vcL7
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1j60GXRh3
For an agonizing moment, all was silent. Tatsumaki looked to Fubuki, Recovery Girl and her beloved brother. A brother who seems to be fading fast.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VQYo4HxI7
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4tkywzOWb
The eldest sister looked back at the two men. She saw nothing but red and desperately needed someone to pay. So she raised her hands and-
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1p7Fo43Imc
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58qzg44FPC
If it could get anymore tense, it just did. Fubuki and Tatsumaki looked to the new arrival. Valkyrie ran towards Izuku, not realizing what she just did.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rcdThAot0
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoRwbQSkkr
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3r10rCS6S
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOolz1gyZs2
Valkyrie was so focused on saving her brother and then consumed by worry at his state, that she failed to sense her onee-chans. Now they meet at the worst possible time.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYYSyhfBhJ
Valkyrie: “I-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiaC1KkS3b
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEPnPm4zAP
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHbH9A4Bav
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdPJlKM7GY
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVHR44wyCI
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbyTZFqLbK
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NbEiprOvP
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYWLnr7UJP
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVJpugwQ7w
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAPSCT8Cz2
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSsogw6uRy
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VBzvlcKM5
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0eX7roer8
Valkyrie oriented herself quick enough to punch apart the debris sent her way. But the remains of that debris would fly right back at her, creating a tornado of terror.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8p7QWFO7S
Valkyrie did all she could to punch and kick away the assault, but it was too much. Small sharp fragments found their way past her defenses.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vvCpsO5IZ
Yes, she was getting hurt.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX40dfK9o1V
Tatsumaki psychic energy was far too overwhelming for her own powers to negate. Each flash of red and small cry of pain egged Tatsumaki on.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWsG7eDyC0
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST2ZIFctTR
This couldn’t go on.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlldjUB7ba
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSW91565Dn
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKhgB8ERUb
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEmpPnnBa9
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUMvq39isz
Both All Might on the ground and Tatsumaki in the air widen their eyes. And that moment of shock was all she needed to unleash an imitation of the hero her brother so admired.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTBo2amdV6
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1OmkrWRTQ
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpiOJm8stW
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZLVCrvTgK
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeJmyVrKdC
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrtp16tg2e
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtvgMoSC0K
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQrwnLwMk5
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyfzXJY7Xm
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp3123JTFY
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqAWpideEk
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI7AcC1tkG
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzME4RHdEu
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlY63HO7Dh
Valkyrie was so weak, a feeling she never felt before. And it was caused by her older sister. Tears welled up in her milky eyes.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAGEZWAvCl
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsrxLWOb1s
And then to All Might and Nezu who both looked a bit lost at what to do. This is clearly a family drama they have little room to but in on.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xvnVFjQA7
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKGgcDnznm
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7SCafwnsM
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUgvXa1kWu
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpreG6aMzEn
Valkyrie: “Family.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pCxbQd9UB
Wrong answer.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSTRww5ynp
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76Us3Y5tjc
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmXH622wS8
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFyGIqQTfg
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCWUPBp2hR
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9f3xeO4hIr
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu8E98eiAt
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3xFluytY2
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHNj3izNHZ
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoItrEw6DC4
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSW6LVegkN
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDYgg1Yv9K
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaYhl63GGX
All eyes return to the fading boy.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqshRsaKHm
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53srNbxKAq
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDnXwkpSBX
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uBpVa2KAB
Tatsumaki: “How?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdUsqqo9bj
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNsyyIzqBH
The eldest sister thought for a moment and looked at her brother who was on death’s door. Any fury she felt melted at the sight. All she wants right now is for him to live.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6wRmCdSj8
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2KoaYwJS0
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgsoxniP90
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1tGwmR3Sq
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3cthwZkJW
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg5IKoaVo9
Valkyrie used the rest of her strength to touch Izuku. In that instant, she glowed green and the healing flames returned in full force. Izuku was rapidly healing while Valkyrie shrunk in size.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHlEbYyrFw
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBCVZ7V2vI
Everyone crowded around in relief to see Izuku healing from his wounds. There are still some burns but those will heal with time as well.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsUPuu2k7u
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOyvYEve4L
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZubdKu73U
She took a moment before nodding.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbREAly37nN
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Sg1mt18S
They all look back to see the damage Tatsumaki caused. Then they looked at her. She couldn’t look at them and so turned away in embarrassment.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOmNqrF1Zq
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN0CejIIJd
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKCZ5XPqaV
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0jokQpW33
Fubuki: “Of course.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS0bJYRf3b
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdd5gsXkLH
Recovery Girl: “Yes, but I’ll take a little trip to the office to get some extra supplies. To help bring Midoriya back to 100%”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwBtb25DM1
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5blVERO9Vi
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOHn5JGDsB
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJq02NeyB6
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmarYuEq81q
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtINDqwFAI4
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN2fjflMQF
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Eh2cd6eHE
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGoMMthhsp
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz9iVNojxQ
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT05JDWm3MS
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92iiIiFPAq
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6BO4av7xR
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF3wodiYRl
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVZtXeeH03
Tatsumaki: "W-w-w-w-w-w-what are you doing?"

The two sisters looked at the scene with a slight blush and they weren’t the only ones. Izuku was also blushing, and cursing his hormones. He always found Valkyrie pretty.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYHacPECci
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSqQb0Dys6
But he knew she wasn’t trying to kiss him, so he kept still and waited. Trusting that this is all apart of the process.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLvkLEZgzR
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcyOPTu8wD
Valkyrie closed her eyes and pressed her forehead against his own. For a moment all he felt was the warmth of her skin against his.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDFleTdo1P
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWaNdiWOm0
Then it was like he'd been doused in buckets of icy water, images flashing before his eyes like a badly edited film reel. Colors that couldn't exist, memories with a first-person view showing a body that didn't belong to him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwbgPrdrTg
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDGvlqK4M0
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d3NXKPXI2
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5xlZ9lyoK
A smiling team of heroes dressed in cat-themed regalia. A man crying in the hospital, alone and wrought with regret. Pale ghostly hands ripping through reinforced steel like wet cardboard.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGt9dq1NGJ
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NFRv8hRU2
More and more images hammered his mind. He couldn't clearly understand them all, but he got the basic gist of what they were supposed to be. Snippets and chunks of Valkyrie's life, unfolding backwards in visual format like a VCR tape on rewind.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTsuYvt91t
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp9cF89Gfs
Finally, he saw a familiar view of the city. Izuku knew this scene, it was the exact same landscape he'd see if he looked out his window.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEaqk77pv5
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiUpwOVIUC
Except this point of view was a little higher. The roof of his apartment. A single glowing tentacle reached out, the tip splitting into five distinct ends, forming fingers, then a hand. Thunder boomed in the distance as rain pattered off the frightened limb.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgWF3mi8zn
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAtITtDGS4
He somehow remembered this night. It was the very same night he'd cried into his sister’s arms, lamenting the cruelty of life. This was when Valkyrie was born, ten years ago.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzb9VTbw5E
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnuBGhmiuB
Then, there was the connection between Master and Projection. An electrifying jolt like a DC current, simple, steady and carrying a numbing shock as two minds bridged into one. A direct feed to something deeper, primal and terrifyingly familiar.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeXdGNGoUl
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyEeQClEhU
'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNzspAYSe9
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5gADoc6Ue
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ1gjluJTn
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLNcbY8YhY
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsydzbkM32d
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZjp1haidr
Something answered.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNZSqXKyfs
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJHXYw5br8
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPK4OaAAqu

Fubuki: “Izuku, are you alright?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU3LDKsFzF

Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSn8O8opSb
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6zzWwW8C4
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG05HYHaEL
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiahGSA24iS
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofk1n7nXaa
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nsdbkDVtZ
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVWdv4pNZr
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhdYusWWaa
She'd just shown him key memories of her life compressed into the span of seconds. Conveniently giving him the general rundown of her story and relation to him. But most importantly, she had shown her origin…and how he'd created her.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45aGn3wM8s
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uT0fcZbeo
The irony of the situation wasn't lost on him. The crackpot theorists were right on the assumption that Valkyrie wasn't human. She was a construct…his construct.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNVzZqBNE5
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz46f3tYYxZ
Izuku: "Y-you. You're me. A part of me. All those weird dreams I've been having. My emotions being kept in balance when I got too scared or stressed since I was young…it was all you, wasn't it?"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFGB3X6B51
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGg2GVXBRY
She nodded, patiently waiting for him to continue. If he looked a little closer he would have seen her trembling with a barely restrained excitement.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOApyv6N5i
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6mr4uwn3U
Izuku: "Ten years..."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseQqnsqkp3
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyVWR5MD4S
He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUOvjfLRoV
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6Y3cZaMoe
He really was never quirkless. All this time, he was like everyone else. If she didn’t show him why she didn’t tell him earlier, he’d be mad.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzjzPEWlfO
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx4s54JENM
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprG1MSbqRI
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFuRPk6d7h
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8wHNV1gry
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqll9M9SRU
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXFqouZFNB
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbeM4FIs3R
The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaktFTu2eif

Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTujdPiAYME
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VkQg7RITs
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvHSewI1P7
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx759iFuOye
She nuzzled against his chest happily. He could somehow get a basic feel of her current mood, right now she was ecstatic, positively vibrating with joy in the arms of her creator. To her, this must have been like a religious experience. He sighed, rubbing her head gently with a somewhat parental instinct.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChV3Df8Zva

Valkyrie: “Oneeeeee!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZb4d9Q2W1

Valkyrie pouted at being separated from her big brother.

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXYteKYaRz
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdaxlr73pt
Tatsumaki: “Look, I believe that Valkyrie is your mental creation. But calling her my…little sister? Having her apart of our family?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKlgvnALXo
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77eWnNxHZi
Unbeknownst to them Fubuki’s eyes flinched at the term little sister. A position she held and something Tatsumaki rarely calls her. Something else she can lose…
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQYZ29QStW
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawt30YImp5
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9BvOhDFR3
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQZHLIEiql
Their eyes widen slightly at Fubuki’s uncharacteristically cold words.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA29qJBoJQ

Izuku: “But we can’t abandon her!”

She lets the two down but her glare makes sure they don’t go holding onto each other.

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uvgpvwd18
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ6n4LLBYe
Fubuki bit her lip, understanding what her sister was trying to explain. But a corner of her mind still whispers.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNckpG80Iyc

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutevZDEqyW
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIU7faIb3X
Izuku looks to see Nezu and All Might coming to greet the recently revived boy. Only Valkyrie was a bit surprised at All Might’s true form. Not wanting to interrupt, she kept silent for now.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAuGPJLPvw
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7aSGfs9EJ
Nezu: “You’re quirk is truly incredible. I would love to-”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcgItc6VZe

Tatsumaki’s cold stare shut down any more ideas for experimentation.

Nezu: “Nevermind.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnD6ES1P9v5

Izuku got up and bowed to the principal.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihgrhPQqEB

Nezu sighed, lamenting the hectic day and the media frenzy.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg0ZiZTmWS
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3PNmyhABp

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQpDeZx1bm
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzxuroiKxD

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC946yGNiSW
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK20ekML8Vj

Izuku: “Thank you Nezu!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAhIP7pjWZ
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQLoyGSlcc
Nezu: “Most welcome. To be honest, I'm rather beside myself with eagerness to see what you'll make of yourself, Midoriya. Your Quirk is amazing, and if my suspicions are right, you may only be scratching the surface! Telekinesis, telepathy, mental projection and Pyrokinesis are all subsets of psychic powers. You might have full access of that power set.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukBqMQBKmD
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpTTC5pLoX
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk05IEWC1Hs
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFjSks0LK2
Nezu: “So perhaps you should pick up a couple of those really old comics and manga from the last millennium. You may find some amazing ideas in them that you're able to replicate."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwYTZM63Fd
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0ZZxAgJg8
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2vv9dhwbE
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XTBddKdim
Izuku: "I will! Thank you for the advice, principal!"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHMEKrjY0n

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7POLBCH4P

He turned to the man in question as Izuku went scarlet.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3s38vMkJR

Nezu: "Speaking of, you intend to pass One For All to him, don't you?"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi5tJ3cCOJ
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5B0HFvxvd
All Might: "I do! He's the perfect candidate! When I first offered it to him, he didn't even hesitate to think of others first. He wondered if it would be fair to others if he took it now that he had his Quirk. That kind of selfless nature, his bravery, and his sense of justice are hard to come by. Even before he had his quirk he didn't even hesitate to try to save someone from a villain."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst6TZjl3dh
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHad4YTekO
Nezu: "I agree. And that is why, even though I feel he really has the potential to succeed you as the Symbol of Peace, it pains me to say that he can NOT become the next holder of One For All."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd252FxTn2m
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6ggc6mQ54
Tatsumaki and All Might: “What?!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPyzJ0G6H6

Nezu let out a hard sigh and crossed his paws.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6JsLZFTvX
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFaQdbiYNj
Nezu: "Remind me again of the story your master told you? Of what happened to her when she first gained One For All."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXUYxm8Vk6
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjbc2ovx25

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rxFIUVes4
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCCJMzsgOm
He blanched, finally remembering.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHzeXle4Zf

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFBSbO4PTR
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfZ2ZoZkHj
The Midoriya family widen their eyes while Valkyrie got a bit closer to her brother.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy0AzeFLS7
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbba8k1vONE
Nezu: "Precisely. One For All overpowered Float so badly she nearly broke her own neck. And she had been training her Quirk for years. Just what do you suppose it will do to HIS Quirk?"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsU3oWKyHZ
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn25BNqSdG8
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNy8jYp8Rp
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZtz76uuIN
Tatsumaki: “How could you forget that?”

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA6WyQ8n04
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwq60DSAr7
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYxwfeWd2D
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9232siUxqn
Nezu: “So let us perform a scenario analysis on what would happen if Izuku were to accept One For All. Scenario one: Izuku accepts the Quirk and they stay entirely separate. Now he has two Quirks he has hardly any practice with. With the potential he's shown us with only two months of training, they may even end up being equally powerful. He now has to divide all his time in training two Quirks that have nothing to do with one another. One For All is not a Quirk you just have. He will break himself without dedicating his body to training it. He would have to leave his original Quirk by the wayside, and I can see in his face that he clearly is not interested in that."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75Pb9173hL
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfZcx4R0zi
Izuku: “No…I'm not. I…I finally have a Quirk. Something to make me unique. Something that is all me…that ties me to my family"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUgOUsoPrL
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGh7qlj7G8
The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlav5mkOnDL
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU6dHCf7dq
Nezu: "Exactly. Izuku would become a jack of all trades, master of none. He would be hurting his own potential by stretching himself too thin."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSlFqazNLf
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAXWdvzpZt
Nezu: “And that is the better scenario. The worst-case scenario is that One For All merges with his original Quirk. All of the stockpiled power stored in your Quirk, now powering his."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16vbQ9ocNq
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFraJxUSr1

142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oP5VsC7JF
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejfRjmNTym
Nezu: “Correct. Toshinori, you could never had met your master if she had killed herself flying into that wall. If Torino hadn't been there she may have done just that."
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuCPppbLG0
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYdkOzkTU7
Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JIbZmn1wl

Nezu: "He would be breaking things with even the slightest touch of his Quirk. Crushing full trucks into soda cans. Picking people up to rescue them and putting them on the moon. How could he possibly learn control when even the lightest touch could be enough to send something he struggles with now straight into orbit? He could never use his Quirk again. He'd be back where he started. For all intents and purposes… Quirkless."

All Might was looking even more deflated than usual. Chiyo spoke up, finally deciding to speak.

Nezu: "I'm sorry Toshinori. I know how extremely happy you were to have found your successor."

Izuku had stayed silent as they spoke, and for once, it was him putting his hand on All Might's shoulder.

All Might: "This changes nothing, shonen. I promised to train you as my successor until the entrance exam and train you I shall. You're still my student and my successor, even if I can't give you One For All! We'll make you the greatest hero in the world yet, Midoriya-shonen!"

He started laughing a little boisterously.

Izuku: "And here's my promise to you, All Might. I'll search high and low if I have to! We'll find your successor to One For All!"
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHO8DPsQ4w

He then surprised All Might with his next statement.

Izuku: "And we should still keep it in. A hero shouldn't be a one-trick-pony, right?"

All Might smiled, once more seeing the potential of his successor. Even if things weren't going to go the way he wished, he could rest easy knowing someone like Izuku Midoriya was part of the next generation. He bumped his fist against his student's, sealing the promise.

Valkyrie, because she won’t be replaced. She can rest easy that she’s apart of her brother’s powers and so won’t be cast out.

No, she shakes that idea of her head. But the more she looks at her brother, the more she sees Psykos…

Recovery Girl: "On a much happier note, I think I may have thought up a name for your Quirk, Midoriya-chan."
