Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYyrJYTq67s
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
219Please respect copyright.PENANAX1xXoUoEPM
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAvWN9QDKHVl
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAqB0UOdD9I9
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAVzQA08XkMJ
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAalgjbvtHvY
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAxYkRBW6B91
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAixNdMcBsRY
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANARW8ZJWkRmE
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…
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuskaQErkyg
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPitVcsPXqI
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOBYay1LlAT
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAXKqs5Mj4bN
It’s everywhere.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAHfZY3NrT7B
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGL9pAaXxnx
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA13lha2BDmB
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWCo0EeGrRm
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2SptxTvaoE
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAka7X4afn2M
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2goHYuACTN
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAo4xI63yJcj
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAc93XOo5bSX
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJw25sgn3BS
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWRsLs6VQ7D
“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.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA11TOJtuEJU
Izuku: “To do what?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAyJ1LuPl2Iu
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0iXGCbqHQ1
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANATY9HhUk5zO
But one thing keeps him grounded.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA11hJ4uSSuZ
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.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjdQPFqnOiv
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaH3srAcERx
“I knew I chose well.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAG5AFBvZv4k
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZFPIXUDaW7
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6vIaxPU0zq
“You’re waking up.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaZcKCChFwN
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANARkP6PR8uxo
“That, I have no doubt.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAd3w7RNzc42
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAFmnZcHsZ41
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAVYETk0RcYQ
“…My name is-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA3L3VoBVd4V
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMm7hnner5u
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAn2ZFLVmDuO
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAyaeKf3RCqe
A lap pillow.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJZJef6eqlz
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANASomg3SkZ5K
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9XAKzKH2UT
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0DHW6WqkR0
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMYsOY2VHjO
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAL4S3BekbtE
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAi1pSQXcVX0
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA34gQzPXlj0
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWduDcdsrVW
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAxakJnkjoxi
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAb0XluhkFDO
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjAiqPvi57P
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAIoUCfJs3Gr
Izuku: “Ow.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA53aDOVGl1D
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAgvRFI59TEU
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAc3nZQSrrUx
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwXWgFHwfoC
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAC4eS9x3MUQ
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA31qmJLUpKq
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAY0lfwvAmXL
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANACvFAhWssOx
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJrw4k9qwHy
Izuku: “Yes!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAY4GwdaomrB
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1A38y8V2pk
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANACxckLXZkJ7
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8BRPPOku8
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAzirpHK7rv2
The place looked like a warzone!
219Please respect copyright.PENANASMiK2HTIaI
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAq9wxhRlaph
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAyGqKELlbIO
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1QtDHsKBO5
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKstBv5ghrv
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANArl7SMvpZAm
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeEpirTqjY5
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjduwWOVniW
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAnuK536Y0au
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
219Please respect copyright.PENANABZbanyWYHT
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAa8sIQL6qbB
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAEpL3CJdCos
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOe6O6GjfV6
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJtOediTMZm
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2CR8OEfgG5
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANArlEPaWWapV
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6F9Xcl2Ico
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmIsedsWs7p
No.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWF9avmw0oa
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA63FlV5WzLA
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAcQuSlQ2g3U
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAflDGKoSBzd
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMCoh94UGFQ
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAcMXTYM0Sg2
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
219Please respect copyright.PENANASqGF96RQ6y
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-
219Please respect copyright.PENANAp0psjJDTwq
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWN7SxRgj4S
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAk31h8edo9r
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGlupQS7D4V
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
219Please respect copyright.PENANATWqptxT4i4
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbHO8DHgjeD
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAsXwFb0y3KV
Valkyrie: “I-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZEI7FSIcmo
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYyLnMLCnWM
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhU25jyfVyo
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
219Please respect copyright.PENANALmLRZLD9rb
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAD41q4tSJ8Q
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAQRy32RmkzU
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7a8VzElZCX
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAEHHlCvuQ6f
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7rwIzUBTG3
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
219Please respect copyright.PENANATVWtGjOV6y
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANADJyJU5BXA7
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAr0f9hGOTQM
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAnkbaM2xu0O
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAu73UexxHJy
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAXMgB1QrHCs
Yes, she was getting hurt.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhiNqUB4Pqb
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhc9SiWggKi
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAtOBWoEIc3G
This couldn’t go on.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0oplwqbsbP
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAb1AXcSrPjJ
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKMQWEa5Jkq
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAHqYPEyaD9u
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9AWWmkMwQ2
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwfQmCAoCeX
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbfGZBFxIm0
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1qTrPfTb4F
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6mkLoRTeyV
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAXlrq0sLGWC
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAG1ANM5BnEU
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAoFwnojyEdz
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMdigtrIS4y
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
219Please respect copyright.PENANANilYx8gSew
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAfaMo4TlVXY
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7GCSnr3d1V
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
219Please respect copyright.PENANApTRhFPLC6o
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
219Please respect copyright.PENANABH3zzfIpL9
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAx6swxm8qXv
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA90iK8Ykmf1
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAqO8mmzF5ru
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJfNPzKI1kV
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANASc8Pg9MWvM
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJDrcW67fdw
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkoppR0unga
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAqF5Qa6Qut6
Valkyrie: “Family.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAVj3kwTnQF6
Wrong answer.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAFfpP76IEOJ
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYAKzFJXinc
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAh8H4pJKzkW
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAtsl1XODDRE
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA69FqWFHCt4
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAqykzd7pg1W
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuF5IExwtoP
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeSSh6eIqlm
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAH7wxUDlE5f
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAyg9zlhYwp5
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZdCcyHROcz
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA84EabcSXzx
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAsz1VdXnb7j
All eyes return to the fading boy.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAfLU4ZUkMxH
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAfKs7zfPe0Y
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAyGHZZB9W3
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAQnLwaEkNGT
Tatsumaki: “How?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOlDo7ktYRF
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWkR9owmR63
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWqj5A984mX
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmT2iooTSCN
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkRbU1b6Hsl
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwciEVbhIz2
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAahP1cJWV4g
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYphpyKVDG6
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYQBNzU08qz
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAYWLfyFnTaC
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6MSxP8dbjT
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAa4HAKmFhVd
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANARYpRFGAkH1
She took a moment before nodding.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAy1inDhv5uI
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANArXPPt4AKrI
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAR96seCpiSD
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAC6si7XvW8X
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGcGQu7Aiv7
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAiMk4vIjqNc
Fubuki: “Of course.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAgfQ3C2rNjU
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOqpPp21Jfi
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%”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAn6MGjtamQt
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7AKxKpO0u8
219Please respect copyright.PENANA8gtvhqCDR6
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuLNQenQVm5
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6TskjjOM8u
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA8q0l0aq9tF
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkvOxM8fhUt
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANANe9Ca47nHu
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANALgX5tZHDjZ
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbADSQaHs3G
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAimVEuNTFsa
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuCmViC0rk0
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGkUkLPcwuI
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAap4uXGn55U
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2MdNTu3Ozz
Tatsumaki: "W-w-w-w-w-w-what are you doing?"
219Please respect copyright.PENANANrpUrtXcDI
219Please respect copyright.PENANAFN4b9SonlP
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaypMv9IUzE
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1FqRpAspVy
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkQbons6awt
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAdaNZdpTBX
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANArpWj8pJsiC
219Please respect copyright.PENANARlhyKBUAmd
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6zyRDajl3B
219Please respect copyright.PENANApRTaEdmJjJ
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.

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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwRuc7YXIpR
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6HmYdfjm9
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAQermwEUMFA
219Please respect copyright.PENANA8VOJEf3Hiw
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmgWuAKWe9C
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOO19ndW6Ib
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANApd1UIiOfIy
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPKuCsJ6Ucq
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbQW7DC71Dq
219Please respect copyright.PENANA3jW5cB9FrF
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAdUA4UVT9X
219Please respect copyright.PENANANFn8DkMzmI
'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
219Please respect copyright.PENANAa0WF1i1842
219Please respect copyright.PENANAgHupo8gJDV
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAfMgjyKP4eQ
219Please respect copyright.PENANAY8KwNG4Ade
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
219Please respect copyright.PENANAQTLzR0YBka
219Please respect copyright.PENANADJy8VH36ll
Something answered.
219Please respect copyright.PENANACzgStMhyal
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuCcjJuRlXl
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeUK1b7z6vX
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAFFUtsj9bu
Fubuki: “Izuku, are you alright?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0kFDEs0Msy
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkedH8MHEWs
Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9hkkn4PCQT
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaQszWqAHXW
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANANGOwnlfPWf
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0cKhZJELJo
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAlIhutm65TY
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJld0I1HVVo
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
219Please respect copyright.PENANApL2RTXyw0F
219Please respect copyright.PENANARgKrL7aCQ0
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAw1I1Sq2t8a
219Please respect copyright.PENANAX9Oi3E6xDC
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAxaasbM9g4s
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjg52mSPbhq
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?"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAU1L6QRtLnP
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmVRSxsIT5T
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9u7pplg9LN
219Please respect copyright.PENANASm27gmAj3H
Izuku: "Ten years..."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuu7DEeptfJ
219Please respect copyright.PENANAvlSnstVarQ
He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAEU8P5sB2tT
219Please respect copyright.PENANAdZM594gjgr
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANANzraAEPoUF
219Please respect copyright.PENANA81XeqQwq7k
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJri87hzM1T
219Please respect copyright.PENANANnyGloGZqz
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAz9G9kijOmy
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWNfm6GpC03
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6DaUlLQIcC
219Please respect copyright.PENANAj1vQwo710Y
The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0HJ5ksvFP6
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmwDbnrTPH1
Izuku: "You must have been so lonely."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA5SxkGYkFOr
219Please respect copyright.PENANASmUyZJyr6I
Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAFqZe3eYDHg
219Please respect copyright.PENANAw19y6zyp1Q
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjsr20ULC0D
219Please respect copyright.PENANAdE0LEwvDal
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjYjf7zMBn2
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0SXHQLDGFQ
Izuku: "I guess… that makes you my little sister?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAUY1jzYRUZw

Tatsumaki: “Okay, that’s it.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeqDnrblwBf
219Please respect copyright.PENANAekkOedyf5p
Tatsumaki gently moved the two from each other with her powers.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAndDX6qbNH1
219Please respect copyright.PENANAllCtbeVTaP
Valkyrie: “Oneeeeee!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAxTClFUqHYv
219Please respect copyright.PENANAIu4dz8B8Wr
Valkyrie pouted at being separated from her big brother.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmXijDdVw3Z
219Please respect copyright.PENANA5r6bEjb6ZO
Tatsumaki: “Don’t calm me that. This is just…too weird”
219Please respect copyright.PENANANevX5wVXct

Fubuki: “What will mom think?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANALMJuXKFTrS

Tatsumaki: “Just another thing to worry about.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAXjREbkvevH

Izuku: “Is it that bad?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeWl0i92j1a
219Please respect copyright.PENANATA0diGnhrB
Tatsumaki: “Look, I believe that Valkyrie is your mental creation. But calling her my…little sister? Having her apart of our family?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA6BEqjmD1W1
219Please respect copyright.PENANA8OEPYwo4M6
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…
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7gsWJJN9yP
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPPcdlQQZfH
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7Go63polvo
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9bGULdAXoQ
Their eyes widen slightly at Fubuki’s uncharacteristically cold words.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAdMoXyVewbK
219Please respect copyright.PENANANHy1yKwiBb
Izuku: “But we can’t abandon her!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAlwkjOb9DVO

Tatsumaki: “This is getting us nowhere.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMyZENJeCtN
219Please respect copyright.PENANAS27jPKpCq3
She lets the two down but her glare makes sure they don’t go holding onto each other.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAv7HHnxX5KB
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMdF4GOKpRX
Tatsumaki: “Where do you live Valkyrie?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGrG8WpNKCv

Valkyrie: “…Around. Different places.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA194QNkPxnB

219Please respect copyright.PENANA4nzRSvz4IJ

Tatsumaki: “Quiet!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANABtEqVYOtQI

The oldest sister has spoken.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAiY9Rcdwn8g

Tatsumaki: “You trust her Izuku?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZfmiMnio1v
219Please respect copyright.PENANANzVow9TI1F

219Please respect copyright.PENANAHX0lIEYgoX

Tatsumaki: “…Okay.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA77Sz7yNqA9

Fubuki: “Big Sister!?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1DhTi0v5cU
219Please respect copyright.PENANAX7PtM7VsEX
Tatsumaki: “I’m not calling her my little sister but I know she’s strong. She can protect Izuku where we…may be late.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANASMu5KC6Fyv
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7IMjKpDjhb
Fubuki bit her lip, understanding what her sister was trying to explain. But a corner of her mind still whispers.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1OnCpWULFj
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKYw6pzHeiK
‘This is just the first step. You’ll be replaced. You’ll be left behind.’
219Please respect copyright.PENANAANuGdDXmK6
219Please respect copyright.PENANAGJrbgaIDEu
Tatsumaki: “Still, you have to convince mom Izuku. Understand?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAikiMVRasgE
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1BsDqDTcTA
Izuku: “Yes!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA3iPXlYyUeA

Nezu: “Well, I’m glad to hear you’re up and alright Midoriya.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAE9ZOGPEfve
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhFWCBoJrV6
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.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAyesZnlRSBe
219Please respect copyright.PENANAMipO6Ka7G9
Nezu: “You’re quirk is truly incredible. I would love to-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAutHUyxVaYT
219Please respect copyright.PENANAHuxJOOZQki
Tatsumaki’s cold stare shut down any more ideas for experimentation.
219Please respect copyright.PENANALkO1UQ47a0
219Please respect copyright.PENANAfdupmBnV3P
Nezu: “Nevermind.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA5Mspr8oQq2
219Please respect copyright.PENANALS8Q5ErjCO
Izuku got up and bowed to the principal.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAlTWmGP5Q1W
219Please respect copyright.PENANA3hkltYtFw4
Izuku: “Sorry for causing you so much trouble! I should have not tried combining my abilities.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2wRxCraMAa

Nezu: "It's quite alright young man."
219Please respect copyright.PENANADTQRTMeOJ4

Nezu sighed, lamenting the hectic day and the media frenzy.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAexERFiNXZm
219Please respect copyright.PENANAlJtdPvexzJ
Nezu: “Sadly, we're out of time today. But you'll still have Toshinori to train you today.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwpxzZEPH9l
219Please respect copyright.PENANAF2pME6ocfD
Fubuki: “Maybe we should train him today instead.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAroR93HOcGt

Valkyrie: “What about…me?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0ScMrszZzM
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuaqkYKWkSZ
Nezu: “Hmmmm, in that form you don’t look like the famous vigilante. Perhaps…you can apply to U.A alongside Midoriya.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAcKpfruwEHL
219Please respect copyright.PENANAkmzNVsDK63
All Might: “That’s an excellent idea. Her experience in the field could even rub off on her fellow students.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaoGaIe1dkK
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1Zz4zNr4w
All Might: ‘And she’ll become a licensed hero, instead of staying a Vigilante.’
219Please respect copyright.PENANAj82Y1B1NWc
219Please respect copyright.PENANAEffMs7bUaf
Tatsumaki: “She could protect Izuku better that way too.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOwcohPXKGj

Fubuki: “But-”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAt9ka7OoZnJ

Izuku: “Thank you Nezu!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjOnS2qBWx4
219Please respect copyright.PENANAevtvCXEzAq
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.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANA8edKI6fVQu
219Please respect copyright.PENANAN83ZN7iFCu
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwhgx6oJCcW
219Please respect copyright.PENANAUvdML2uxKB
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKTSjTmPxIO
219Please respect copyright.PENANAVmQtEMJpZL
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAsL2sXRiKdQ
219Please respect copyright.PENANADCNVPBxhSt
Izuku: "I will! Thank you for the advice, principal!"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAd65DhqxR9J
219Please respect copyright.PENANAeupXUUKMLZ
Nezu: "You're a good kid Midoriya-san. I can see what Toshinori saw in you. You have great potential!"
219Please respect copyright.PENANA19LTKLdhj5
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0M0LmzHvpa
He turned to the man in question as Izuku went scarlet.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAw9Zwph3tc2
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWNW9muK7IZ
Nezu: "Speaking of, you intend to pass One For All to him, don't you?"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAG6CwdHwRP8
219Please respect copyright.PENANAcxWFFpU1RN
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPemJo6SyLU
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbSkQKHpS5v
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANATjrvVUYgX6
219Please respect copyright.PENANAzmkuz4Mroi
Tatsumaki and All Might: “What?!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKQxDNf9VVz
219Please respect copyright.PENANAE0SIOZ2NHz
Nezu let out a hard sigh and crossed his paws.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhqqtEeYUEn
219Please respect copyright.PENANAcK31eYkWMv
Nezu: "Remind me again of the story your master told you? Of what happened to her when she first gained One For All."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAsxjOzceRad
219Please respect copyright.PENANANVPWqT7fwH
All Might: "Master? Uh… If I recall, the first time she tried to use Float after she got One For All, she…"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwroB9l84o8
219Please respect copyright.PENANAFYJiNi0Umc
He blanched, finally remembering.
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7kVFmW1Ajq
219Please respect copyright.PENANAp24UCkGZZo
All Might: "She…She…flew headfirst into a wall."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA0L83lC5KL6
219Please respect copyright.PENANAf5U19TCWbG
The Midoriya family widen their eyes while Valkyrie got a bit closer to her brother.
219Please respect copyright.PENANALH2YEJlrbD
219Please respect copyright.PENANA2V0AdiT9Ox
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?"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPRetyC6oDX
219Please respect copyright.PENANAF60aThN0YA
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAo7HhrFrqjM
219Please respect copyright.PENANAuJSo49PoEJ
Tatsumaki: “How could you forget that?”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAe5V69tHWTb
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAjRCfs8TMl
All Might: “It was a long time ago!”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAsovOzy5bBe
219Please respect copyright.PENANA9fXsz0t4vT
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
219Please respect copyright.PENANABVW5w1zefk
219Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ6JWcZgjw
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA3jt3GFS1p6
219Please respect copyright.PENANAg8rF7wTuS5
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"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAAyrcTRqF93
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKqbw8jsbTK
The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwmtH5tjCwu
219Please respect copyright.PENANAwqRsCIQGHO
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAJjGJuwPis9
219Please respect copyright.PENANAiwafp8ipYW
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAPCNSvOi4pQ
219Please respect copyright.PENANAndvFesC53O
All Might: "He would far surpass me. He could be the greatest symbol this world has ever seen! Greater than me!"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAOqvAJudvLr
219Please respect copyright.PENANAZjni23orY6
Fubuki: “But that’s only if he can control it. It’s too dangerous.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAWGFAMkd5D8
219Please respect copyright.PENANAjxHxWDJ65G
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA1VBynLQWsC
219Please respect copyright.PENANASfyXEWyRtd
Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAgaLobuBSv3
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKb6YeLVp9u
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."
219Please respect copyright.PENANA5HQp8VCmEC
219Please respect copyright.PENANA7476PZ8cEr
All Might was looking even more deflated than usual. Chiyo spoke up, finally deciding to speak.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAQs9ltsf2Jx
219Please respect copyright.PENANAdPnhdyZN9s
Recovery Girl: "And the doomsday scenario…we already got a taste of that. Imagine that but-"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAhLjAjGj0cI

Tatsumaki: “We get it! No One For All.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANAtvG25TrCPn
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmLoQKFIJrR
All Might: “You're all right. It was foolish of me to consider this course of action.”
219Please respect copyright.PENANARrqfywfWHT
219Please respect copyright.PENANAzQGVwU5ay4
Nezu: "I'm sorry Toshinori. I know how extremely happy you were to have found your successor."
219Please respect copyright.PENANALlso296S82
219Please respect copyright.PENANAT9OiidWl5J
Izuku had stayed silent as they spoke, and for once, it was him putting his hand on All Might's shoulder.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAaHLfTUMshU
219Please respect copyright.PENANAmK7dgNG5ks
Izuku: "I'm sorry All Might. Looks like I messed things up already."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAdWV5LvI9zm
219Please respect copyright.PENANAN5oFPogpGp
Toshinori smiled before bulking up.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAKyUMvBidzU
219Please respect copyright.PENANAU5ETA7m4ZO
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!"
219Please respect copyright.PENANAxn9EkWF11Y
219Please respect copyright.PENANAbCL5IOqN1y
He started laughing a little boisterously.
219Please respect copyright.PENANAM1CHGvMpcd
219Please respect copyright.PENANADlA83wmFVm
All Might: "I guess this does mean we can cut the physical training out of our schedule though."
219Please respect copyright.PENANAheSI81YNTL
