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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhmlMSBR1s
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzLYFdC482
Nezu: “Well everyone, let’s not waste any more time. We must tend to the students and the wounded.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv3JvOv4gI
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfujHIZuFWO
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasjDIrWz5I
But that doesn’t change how she feels.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt6eAWPv08
Tatsumaki: “Give me names.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZieLnaDf5z
Fubuki: “Don’t know, but it’s dead.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPQG8wFGYz
Tatsumaki: “Dead?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUbD4603qA
Fubuki: “Quirk beast.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO356KLgffK
Tatsumaki: “I see; I hope it suffered.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5NHpGe1n9
Fubuki: “It did.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQvkT6DJNb
Tatsumaki: “…Tell me what happened.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZyOAwZVpv
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUFqqEr0bV
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWdtjifsme
Tatsumaki: “How could this happen? This is U.A High School, right? They should be able to protect their students better than this.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WVr7wz8CI
Fubuki: “… I don’t know. These weren’t just common villains. One of them inventing a psychic disruptor is unprecedented.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJWT7bsQ4I
Tatsumaki: “And it will only get worse… won’t it?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UkYfhEh5K
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?
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzSddOI07F
It’s too much.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HfYAR9I62
The ground lightly shakes.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQP7K3ZJZZ
Tatsumaki: “If U.A can’t protect them…and with those villains out there… maybe you all don’t need to be-”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HAsoLJVxO
Fubuki: “Tatsumaki!”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmngqjs8T45
Tatsumaki’s eyes widen at her sister’s outburst, a rare sight indeed.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1eUGwgvce
Fubuki: “Don’t.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER6YDVdu44
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9WeVlolCq
Fubuki: “Izuku and Kiri will be heroes. I will continue to be one. We can handle this like we did today.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQDdOPxHvd
Tatsumaki: “Today, maybe. But are you strong enough for tomorrow?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2JIlTIdnK
Fubuki: “I-I’m getting stronger.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q9REyOyt5
Tatsumaki: “Oh? Willing to prove it to me?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeLRWzopj1
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWlKjtVSKy
But the bigger part remembers the terrifying power Tatsumaki has displayed before. So she hangs her head down.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGq69eTel6V
Fubuki: “No.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvDoY5LL44
Tatsumaki: “I didn’t think so. Then it’s decided, until I handle this situation, you three will-”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSHA0cZ7vh
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVDMlhPrpI
Tatsumaki grinds her teeth, almost regretting making that promise. But eventually, she calms down, and the ground settles.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5298gyrwPa
Tatsumaki: “Never mind.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGEJzLYP0X
Fubuki: “Big sis?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUmEpzy328
Tatsumaki: “I… trust this won’t happen again. That you, Izu, and Kiri will get stronger.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj75JTEMFU7
Fubuki: “Y-Yes, we won’t let you down! Thank you.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PmvGoOmSQ
Tatsumaki: “… Okay.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0H1kppFYzZ
Barely holding it together, Tatsumaki sighs and flies away. Fubuki watches her fly off with a somber look.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlxyfCU7KR
Fubuki: “Big sis… ”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1RrFzwf0b
Fubuki: ‘I have to get stronger. I have to. As for Izuku…”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOfRdW1089
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpbRuzLFb3
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.’
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTksnGnDm55
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacUy3ZfUeS
She uses telekinesis to lift Izuku and Kiri before walking up to the other pro heroes.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC9jAICH4x
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWtZskNNnc
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNSZeVk7ir
Inko: “Bella, how could you choose Eduardo over James?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4W8f9ncKv
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bJT6goDkq
But a knock on the door got her attention. She paused and went to the door.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum9CjjGySK
Inko: “I wonder who it is?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlG0wJ2iRx
She opens it to see Tatsumaki with her eyes hidden behind her hair.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b4NXZdmbC
Inko: “Tatsu, what’s-”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FJHp2juNw
A tight hug and the feeling of tears wetting her shirt. The mother’s eyes widen at this surprise. Tatsumaki rarely cries.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfQw8WmLSV
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oi0G0clXD
Something must have happened. Something serious.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBIkzyn2eP
Inko: “Tatsu, what happened?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDSGGNrYOG
Tatsumaki: “I… don’t know how long I can keep that promise.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OOQU51ugO
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ld2uKI0Xu
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z1caDKj1R
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHoaUVmwIp
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTH3CvHRJK
Inko: “Come in, tell me what happened.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf7hU79y2m
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQum3GH4gIv
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywDPGVxH4g
The world of heroes is tough and unpredictable.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIZ31ANhn8
Tatsumaki: “I kept my promise, mom, I didn’t interfere more than necessary. But… it’s so hard to just turn a blind eye.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjx6ig2grJ
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3DALaw14M
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2qqsWqP7a
Inko: “Tatsu… ”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb2aHWU0lA
Tatsumaki: “I… can’t lose them. I couldn’t bear it.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPbc2m4PZ5
Inko: “Sweetie, you just have to trust them. They can-”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkynb88csu
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…”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsvi6LY5WX
Tears start to form again in her eyes as she imagines the various horrible scenarios.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUfexshmip
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvypGyKwtj
Tatsumaki: “What’s the point of all this power if I can’t protect my family!”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMbaPvkbAy
Tatsumaki: ‘I’m useless!’
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfSTmNXpxA
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPffLTYGHm
Something she never wanted to see again.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05b1H0fQO4
Tatsumaki: “I-I’m sorry. I’ll go.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVHA1Wfh3U
Inko: “W-Wait, Tatsu-”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAHWc2hhuh
But it was too late; Tatsumaki quickly flew out of an open window, ignoring her mother’s pleas.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2IBpgPvIX
In the air, flying over the city, the eldest sibling with the largest burden wipes away her tears.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2VcNm19gP
Tatsumaki: ‘If I can’t protect them from the villains, then I’ll just deal with the villains before they can harm them.’
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAxkPewuZs
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpkaNGdsFK
Speaking of villains, before Tatsumaki talked with Fubuki, they were at their hangout recovering.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLsJORXSPi
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHUciOe6ZJ
Tomura: “I can’t believe we failed! We even lost Nomu!”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8w6SVVyIG
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBBc39nf9v
Speak of him and he shall appear; Azrael walks through a mud portal.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqv13IA3Kt
Tomura: “Well? Did you kill All Might?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVg01BZt54
Azrael: “No, just said some words and left. I wasn’t stupid enough to engage everyone by myself.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmrQHUnO5r
Tomura: “You wouldn’t have been alone if we fought together.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnPBgysF0T
Apotheosis: “Why commit ourselves that much to the first battle? Like I said, we’ll be better prepared next time, and we’ll win.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGKhc58WCs
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7P75RaQ3l
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6uqDub3DK
All For One: “The Symbol of Revolution.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7HCLcSf7m
Apotheosis smiles as he thinks about all the plans he has for the future.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yqwkrioGt
All For One: “The Symbol of Vengeance.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQEXUtuAsH
Azrael’s eyes glow with hatred for a society that made him what he is.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡech50uimNC
All For One: “The Symbol of Terror.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1xehZNeoO
Tomura turns the glass into dust and shakes with anticipation. His quirk and neck itch with the desire to unleash his wrath.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiPQB5r6WN
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.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhobjYew5cj
Apotheosis: “Really? I have been curious about our mysterious benefactor.”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SqYz71rNe
The screen turns off for a moment; the next second, a new picture is revealed. One of a quirk beast with one large eye.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jdTM5dA1Y

Something has changed.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcAsesGiLR
The inner world of Izuku was different.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFfffGtq0S
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDO8Qradl6
Then there was the sky. It was a dull brown, nothing special. That’s if you ignore the two green suns.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyuzaMQU2M
One, the beating heart of infinity, and the other, the shape of a sleeping phoenix.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrixuPAXzW
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNYTfjzar6
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIeCCas45J
It was too much.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmB5Uf6mjG
It was too hot, and he was too thirsty to properly process this place. He needed help.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE5ixPdSzv
Izuku: “Phoenix! Where am I?! What is this place!?”
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8m0bxaDjSq
No answer except a cutting wind that kisses his cheeks. He could have sworn he heard a little girl laugh.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOz3fcb5tO
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dtsoKSLNR
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ySbhJUju1
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzybkkz8UTg
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14gLc4L1Fm
Her voice, more so. It reverberated through the whole desert.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcD6HiTVVy
“Welcome, prince, our green sun, the… singularity.”

72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREt8Hne18p
A/N: I made it!
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmSF1fxnCY
Thank you so much for reading. This right here is the season 1 finale, and like every anime, breaks must be taken between seasons.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqixrglTUrX
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQFxt1bCFg
After that and more is done, I’ll return to this. I really like this story and don’t want to stop.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGrH23K3t9
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ4if5HkAg
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD4NS1KUyw
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXYRBqmLBl

72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMahxhqUiaz
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIMtqvM0eH
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.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0QMCVKgxa
Well, that’s it. See you next time, and once again, thank you so much for reading.
