Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBbaGNVFmS
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B7pBEKVCP
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjV9vnISUr
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7dz5NKsOc
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofxiqqNyu3
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC39OsNaZxG
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfexAdqaD7
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Tfv6LBmYt
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrc0TPTkOd
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…
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgluMyBEulJ
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8hzU25sEo
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGE3SgVO4i
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9A4KZGQ8U
It’s everywhere.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73C8tt8kjs
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4v0AwSax7
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxt9sjpfZY
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHctiEtwsUH
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuzcWaIw6t
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFev8osyu2
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpbtNSMSG8
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f3FZG7yuZ
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcSFrHMXVV
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdql8HC7c9
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1NLCpAv1W
“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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdgOWD8svT
Izuku: “To do what?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytawnRGyTp
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ389if7v6Ly
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9OOwI1VeX
But one thing keeps him grounded.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9HY6hxcx9
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Yim1Rdpga
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl5BXERQNW
“I knew I chose well.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHLmbZsTCx
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN8nkajasx
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33UneqUIpI
“You’re waking up.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsGLOBS74t
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6POc5jPxGj
“That, I have no doubt.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLJnbXSSJe
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRTVRvLcey
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzckvC0BsAe
“…My name is-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw7FbDnboB
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J79xdocvY
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyxRLC77xL
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGhcFMSUSE
A lap pillow.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE3UjXOU30
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1OJFIRF9u
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZPZiIRqNA
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhi02CQlpg
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Wj193LnmL
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ige7hOp5R
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdh6pGfonL
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDlKUyfzuG
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PejjfbOQO
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCB3dBnPEy
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aliWeu2Oy
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTBj4trYBV
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6Fcj0QVPB
Izuku: “Ow.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfWrXDSVNC
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyi9hCH9hW
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tyjny7gXi
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpW4re1R9d
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qHv0ioBHi
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7czXy82z45
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLizR6JDuS
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFMWqn1NQE
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBD6MbWdLYx
Izuku: “Yes!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4SyQaCp1V
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNKDU2cMnD
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHEwHzAs3u
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI7pFJMa9p
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXzZLIwAq7
The place looked like a warzone!
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2umJRlEkwm
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElvvmiBsa5
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofxskiGaJj
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVo4bPTOiX
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI8KkKZSp1
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABK0hHmeEh
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZFeO2s6DQ
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmu60aJvi6
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lBsE9d5bj
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDNtO0hWI5
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJARZDmDaOS
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsJyF9OqJ6
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2VVJtarUZ
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiXpNIUBjX
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqhSou39O2
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF0IrzLNOZ
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37kxYAFYAZ
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlYhqGNRti
No.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOpOW74zqG
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQz21BqXZa
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PhxKkUDfE
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqglppXcACE
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhy98jTf1J
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLDsI6s4KQ
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua0eI6vyIm
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-
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2eKhMYqyF
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwSbg9gFC0
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTzrRYRGwp
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVwAdWpUYN
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD51mFt4uoX
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGpuguiZIZ
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EhbTpgSO2
Valkyrie: “I-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje7qb2CVWg
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL7ocfz8Wk
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57x6f3aGK9
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIU7bhvnRf
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF2j3dAhwS
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ957MFDb1hJ
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zvBq9ETll
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1aojO1CMV
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJFb7NmYC7
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdEuOb41Ex
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPECFVfMbtU
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf81qn7gWiM
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn31OAdGqKG
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj4kyjyy0m
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjtfHsDwWJ
Yes, she was getting hurt.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDrzz5PumX
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpe5JQ80VT
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwFNyIOVPg
This couldn’t go on.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9uxLhUj1T
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmjEUgIiBL
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmuVvXH0Kd
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplMAtoJFxF
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJZlR8f9W7
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxQMuC0Ilr
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6skBoRPcN0
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6AXLw4fkT
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWziW9JD6y
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A2iu1mfIj
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmAlB8Tpno
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZXWbF9vRH
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVYeVTmWMk
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKpx1ET9cP
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD9iHf5kr7
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSdLb62yqq
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRquRLUeEBB
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXEwgCvxUr
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjEOAT9ylz
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosihYrCe3P
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7nW8mFo81
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98yevegJdQ
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs82IUHuYJR
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUtrvgzFbo
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7KE8WUPft
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNPGN0ijmb
Valkyrie: “Family.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00PPmFlx9n
Wrong answer.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVIMxjQU6r
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXDpJZrrqb
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsTukMD3oC
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS506UIx9k
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu1trRCF7g
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57jmpxPCLp
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegO7mMJqgq
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdNm37ujaQ
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8o38BVsrd
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaV4Dlz05bk
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprGy70lNQz
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bFgBvltlC
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6Lf06ho34
All eyes return to the fading boy.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXeaJN8i5Z
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYpGmvZWb4
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5diOyk5Sg
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXje20kwFD
Tatsumaki: “How?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoF32CcZMt
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJZ095Qhci
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAWCXgZNC4
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPZNajwLAK
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQtulBXd64
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEDxkLbapT
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw7Doby4ad
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz1lSQCh6P
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEIypTcW8i
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH9F3hu5wZ
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHsF4Qqcma
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvO0jiHdKY
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfudpq2ByT
She took a moment before nodding.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCrp9HMbyH
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOXKY3V8qf
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA149BGIay
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ui1S7r4VL
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQOmFKZ4Nf
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCakKWP4qJ
Fubuki: “Of course.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfTlnhPcnX
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9T8PhKb0U
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%”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypseBxjcro
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquCorph7sJ
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpKL4vplr5
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy137vp4kE
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKlhp3Pqff
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqoUOuU5TW
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2vfyN0XYv
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHWQCovsso
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1fKyi0OKe
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPBc4OrxIc
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7yjKs1oLM
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFeJd7EBgX
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2E1M5ZLhw
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jekT4Gl7C
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDzUMAsjTM
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OQEQRghPZ
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd2z8MJDjM
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFIxcg9n4j
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdhY0SMdWD
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eoXzPiLhi
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnW5xb9NDf
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKCHAj9rGV
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ011YxRJx
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq6pV5undv
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokwP23Jwud
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOsPvRQeKO
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiNm1n2e4D
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIZ8XmOGZ0
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbmHTL2J2E
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOWI8t1Pyt
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡise9ISEQ1M
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj3TTtge5L
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEBYi7Cy22
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.

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1A5QsK9eo
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcT63nsWd5K
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWiZb0boVG
'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvQ7eTMH5W
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3RiY7kCWA
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe88HdiRWTM
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl5Tf72uwL
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWdzGOo2lH
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDfCgfYgt9
Something answered.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl36zgPbGI1
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NyDK010pg
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxCTJhokh2

Fubuki: “Izuku, are you alright?!”

Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2gwPfXsrX
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCDOU5M6LB
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2IvxI0aWL
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23b4apUtEI
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds0BclYdTh
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ej1L9g1Up
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklk3Yl5jFN
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnrYUMI3iC
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fI1fbqlpq
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7RachymHr
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H0IhqsPDC
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MQDgP7TXF
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?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqjqYaAQ4a
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKddvJtBrYv
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMCxuh7Qvg

Izuku: "Ten years..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7TQEFvY2h
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9iOePsYHB
He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjF6qk7ieJE
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsRqxapuno
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Si3QLilSW
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntlOY5lsGf
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlfbxaXz43
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhI6p9nDCxW
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg6GztWohz
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ8lsRAH8J
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSG8AGywqU3
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrwve0MJrK
The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3lyKyr6pD

Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.

Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RZtAf3HxL
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyubHVzABMh
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShC7k8WUun

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxlVZe2TqN
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rUXuamAxe
Tatsumaki: “Look, I believe that Valkyrie is your mental creation. But calling her my…little sister? Having her apart of our family?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3F6Sg1BNd
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERcgvNqiIZ
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…
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZhUmZm0C4
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToVBOATJSd
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tEQjm1d1N

Their eyes widen slightly at Fubuki’s uncharacteristically cold words.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ390or55xhC

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8mPf7tkwF
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p9etjpeW4
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC5VpkLoU0

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl2cGkQZns
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1zO2NEeKQ

Izuku: “Thank you Nezu!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGulx9nlbb
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM5meBTiNN
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRa7PmDEYf
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa27sFqZu1
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1mFFI2SVy
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq77sZZgTm
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRht0rnDCX
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9DXpEjZ7z
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0eKBFQBcm

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArceFi4PL3
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrFubQv7Gb
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBSlEbjAFB
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw77OyHS2D
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."

He blanched, finally remembering.

The Midoriya family widen their eyes while Valkyrie got a bit closer to her brother.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW68vnnr90
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDMtWbbLn7
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?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVHEQjafhA
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvkJbnFwF2
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1vzfbTdmq

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tOXntpqF9
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaK2C8YZ2p
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74L91MP1PB
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACRCHYrFgW
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8iPMfvI1E
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A6Yw9r525

The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQFf9OUTny
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJNcp3PxQA
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcZbOWE2UG
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx5TszbBUr
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBsXcUcSL7
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kFUOYHGbE

121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14ZeZdsFz6
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."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOwCbdv24E

Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWan3WAwaxE

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.

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!"

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.
