Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmlywWakwN4
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEQ7LrMTzfq
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8kyz5bee0f
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWs9vKViCri
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAV55AGga3Z7
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
150Please respect copyright.PENANATVsWRyvXFE
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA6rgkc9dZIq
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUOW0XLr3Ny
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAJXJHgZTY8q
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…
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjegRprydR5
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEU1nIlVZ6h
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPbencKyGEE
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPuoIAAzhwj
It’s everywhere.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAAF2vW2rm9V
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVzQsIE2k0l
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAbU7SIU09bi
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAj2A9alfrqy
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAwUpHVvetNc
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANACtRXYTFqBU
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANACcYFAHXqCn
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
150Please respect copyright.PENANApA4pMmn4IF
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA71seqjYj57
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVJZHGFyZLk
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAiaHnTcQXI2
“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.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAwa27rPvDz4
Izuku: “To do what?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhm9TXaIFiS
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnBDomLbhPe
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUKeFuecE71
But one thing keeps him grounded.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjgrZPHAAGu
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.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIfrI5o0I9t
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAC9BlAvupwG
“I knew I chose well.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANANv5XmCdYCG
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqr5pkV9sBI
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQyPGbUE7cQ
“You’re waking up.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAsAtE5zw7yU
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFYuWwyyNeF
“That, I have no doubt.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9yeZN4zzHL
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAbekFMBP4IA
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAgTWZok8kxo
“…My name is-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAsv6vLM745q
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkx9SuYoCr1
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
150Please respect copyright.PENANACwbARZ4WYo
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmmAau3kmQM
A lap pillow.
150Please respect copyright.PENANArweYL8Obls
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9ti5WxH7fI
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAXwMwvVMpmb
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqm9118amJL
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKqx3tzeNSv
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8YYJMRw8ee
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAM6zGI8JgvO
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAs9OlFBPFEj
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWokkAyEJCz
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA4BIkAoCmQb
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAC7vk1Tkz2g
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcFmZv9a9HE
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKJjWpbd8n0
Izuku: “Ow.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWwAX7jqYLb
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAbc4Ra8gtPC
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANACrZdhzNSYy
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAGFda0rQrlY
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEA9AfXLRra
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAapjiSoxlFU
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
150Please respect copyright.PENANABaHnHFo2o4
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPdnEi1x54X
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZdGEfVFiI
Izuku: “Yes!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAyASNckLApV
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAU6AZWYGscZ
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAHJci8dKJ8K
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAl4pl3HUt40
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAb8Kk2ptpzP
The place looked like a warzone!
150Please respect copyright.PENANAfholLYxHrW
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFVIoz2Z0Bo
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAeG3MQt9pj9
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQj6Jw9EW6z
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAOb8uGDH3mK
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnAm2rzgT4M
150Please respect copyright.PENANAGi0PhfvDJd
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0MxDlvC3vF
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANACf7shgYWW4
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAtMgMROyH6Q
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAAqgPxsJlJ0
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANATULHbfTffO
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAMFXwIcGof4
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAxXWzPkjxY3
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA49HmplJFnl
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAvlbMbibIMJ
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA7QFKccgUBq
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzfCVUn09iT
No.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAc7L8mASZYT
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUDf3By8r5g
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhpY58uIOr8
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAGPtCw50JRx
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAstT1Nzuahj
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVrEHwz5mD3
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPu2OboC6Px
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-
150Please respect copyright.PENANAR9pmNqZJ8j
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcBTLFwkkxp
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzqBCMzcaxt
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAyQAAOknV7y
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjIWNkzDqob
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAo8iSxLa6FR
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAY42ikfIqVp
Valkyrie: “I-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqEY7lg7ufv
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAV9rdjypCy1
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANABo4SMeXVHO
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0JLYDV8yYl
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjKU0KMroWq
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8gTYM8QmJq
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAn7pBv2YOjp
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
150Please respect copyright.PENANARwAgzaLmv9
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAdXd3i4omBL
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFlFyNwSnNn
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKXEjiRePjV
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA3EkTs0V2O6
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUfrjgTM6RJ
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAksFoOwprXX
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnDC6avZiUT
Yes, she was getting hurt.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAXg7zCrbur2
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPiMuEWT44Y
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAGUjd2dyOWb
This couldn’t go on.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAJzTLCq76RU
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVC2IyslzDB
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzbBOMDlHXx
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA5F4Gl4EuXe
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFHGUgdbdnX
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAf1CtwWngT1
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAiGGBcfE2gq
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcvUOcT4RmW
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAZDXQo3EE0Y
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAaK0ijRjVMM
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAY9YukLgEXK
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAxo4N9VVcRb
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAI0dLKsr0eg
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
150Please respect copyright.PENANApmWU1JfrSz
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcxPCsohLOi
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAuJh6EZ6fKW
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzchDCYJRv4
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAvNRz44NpfX
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkVS0fXLcGq
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANArcDJAvi8D4
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAaBJ4rr9Iv8
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQMqZritPrI
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAinIxn3aws8
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0BeNjAfCwG
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAk24mwX9auf
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmSgvDYRbDk
Valkyrie: “Family.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYeIsgknCJh
Wrong answer.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAejajPw7htS
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAGnYXDd0PQD
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAaSUNmptjhg
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAeU8JQx05Vl
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAh5EG4PsYYx
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAC3jh8WvZgf
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q4FCnqtuP
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAOYJCjdL1tH
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnb2AirGfQE
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANACuaUPywieT
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAOqrDI5Eaox
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAxVbFVWE6Mx
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWUktaclhDw
All eyes return to the fading boy.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEvtznKA7xd
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhoXKRz75xR
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIWcbBdJCH7
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIXnwCICwcw
Tatsumaki: “How?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPSQkRsHtQf
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAd38YxrtYQM
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAlSZvkImZXn
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAdp3D6u2YoA
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhKmKofUEId
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAc5gdR0Ugyx
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAO0Yla5ZH7u
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFSGrc0jIeQ
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUKXvRVYV6u
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pj5v3ZeOx
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAaiw2QiQ61A
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAucRRErSKKk
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAJdp2MONWfX
She took a moment before nodding.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnqYUVRoQlO
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAluvIoSgOaB
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9PlgMioeLQ
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAntwDSwB4Il
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9vrgmYbVHw
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANABqb9b9IlMl
Fubuki: “Of course.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAai8Z06W6GU
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9dRvJ4Gpva
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%”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8jdqlM21lE
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAyTq6NBwLna
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQu2APXrE64
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
150Please respect copyright.PENANAxNCAAz7x1N
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQxd734bwd7
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKPEaNhZO4X
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIqNS0PDIa8
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzl4YuzPTiw
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAeivmoRoJJI
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANASQ1lfs6X99
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAm0AQlugamn
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAAmDcnbuSia
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANACz5uxWIBaH
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAK12z2jALkz
150Please respect copyright.PENANAE6Wq0mOD0Y
Tatsumaki: "W-w-w-w-w-w-what are you doing?"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFnO7U1FyLt
150Please respect copyright.PENANA6WEUjvNv9r
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA5L7TmiFPLd
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKtI6x0rJCh
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmAlIydiUHB
150Please respect copyright.PENANAtqBx3s7jma
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUyJPJ4soQi
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0eCphEQOVJ
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAlJULSkstSI
150Please respect copyright.PENANAasHBrHPb7m
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.

150Please respect copyright.PENANAGp5x26ZYdj
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWmC5BS8wux
150Please respect copyright.PENANACeOtqXefCC
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAwqlW9M5RM6
150Please respect copyright.PENANAQG6cUFezHz
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAl4LjAYz9wN
150Please respect copyright.PENANArY9Q1IdEEr
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.

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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzTLlyCotT7
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjJnzRbaxNi
'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
150Please respect copyright.PENANAsmb13eyqpB
150Please respect copyright.PENANA4FRTSJH4iB
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
150Please respect copyright.PENANApyYUaUKrUT
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqSWGaaUTGV
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
150Please respect copyright.PENANAawU8dCCzcA
150Please respect copyright.PENANAZI3zIHB26G
Something answered.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjF5Wm4xeg6
150Please respect copyright.PENANACIe0zkY89Y
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAttPj85vE6M
150Please respect copyright.PENANAHi0XClFywD
Fubuki: “Izuku, are you alright?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAz3Ryf5wblr
150Please respect copyright.PENANAJhQKtQbS6s
Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAclpoUF9WF0
150Please respect copyright.PENANAuCVQl7H7A8
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAgs2jyFBmVs
150Please respect copyright.PENANAOABfiWgfuh
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAT4gsLFulfW
150Please respect copyright.PENANAfoEZnSINDT
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqODNxVPxNz
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0XMTPiCIgS
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAvmZJuWf0Rg
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkdwMRnHiC9
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWjV7eW6YYp
150Please respect copyright.PENANA3nJnDirZbf
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?"
150Please respect copyright.PENANATlnjaZdhDx
150Please respect copyright.PENANAlUXGiQIc9e
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0q1ksWWYER

Izuku: "Ten years..."
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8nDJ1fUf8t
150Please respect copyright.PENANA4PSeolVRa4
He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAumyUmY4PhK
150Please respect copyright.PENANAK8YvmV0gKn
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhvb8dfxqx6
150Please respect copyright.PENANACMNqJfU9tL
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkoPfFo79HN
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhn67dACM3i
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA3dO0g3RQph
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcv6vzt9JoV
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
150Please respect copyright.PENANA63lrEuMGvO
150Please respect copyright.PENANAR7tyOaFzKA
The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA92fm6us5dR
150Please respect copyright.PENANAv16KJlAXdb
Izuku: "You must have been so lonely."
150Please respect copyright.PENANArg6I7gOwqo
150Please respect copyright.PENANAb0zsz2Z4V4
Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAh9gRvMv8iS
150Please respect copyright.PENANAcQgH8DyzZp
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPBHNqiSZIo
150Please respect copyright.PENANAfyvvfwmEJF
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAb9RsZjKwqc
150Please respect copyright.PENANAZu7Vuh0BZf
Izuku: "I guess… that makes you my little sister?”

Tatsumaki: “Okay, that’s it.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAuM3HlmvTI7

Tatsumaki gently moved the two from each other with her powers.

Valkyrie: “Oneeeeee!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAAYxwTYQBHv
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqAW8fGX9oF
Valkyrie pouted at being separated from her big brother.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVvE8A66iDe

Fubuki: “What will mom think?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAp4knjKolYz

Izuku: “Is it that bad?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAWjdHmfwE7w
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjzgorAOe80
Tatsumaki: “Look, I believe that Valkyrie is your mental creation. But calling her my…little sister? Having her apart of our family?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAwdExjusJKW
150Please respect copyright.PENANAe9MTzsnaL6
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…
150Please respect copyright.PENANAtL73Qy6tLL
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIYi0GCVs29
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUf71R1THM2

Their eyes widen slightly at Fubuki’s uncharacteristically cold words.

Tatsumaki: “This is getting us nowhere.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzRqbqyjrkh

She lets the two down but her glare makes sure they don’t go holding onto each other.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEav5x6j04g

Tatsumaki: “Where do you live Valkyrie?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA5Qid984863

Valkyrie: “…Around. Different places.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA4LLZSKcFVk

The oldest sister has spoken.

Tatsumaki: “You trust her Izuku?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAdbe5XjJN7w

150Please respect copyright.PENANA4BgXqgAHcs

150Please respect copyright.PENANAXUviAqdoYc
150Please respect copyright.PENANAptJNS8C8o1
Fubuki bit her lip, understanding what her sister was trying to explain. But a corner of her mind still whispers.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAjjvoFNTWAb
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFfXN1z5XT4
‘This is just the first step. You’ll be replaced. You’ll be left behind.’
150Please respect copyright.PENANARDhoEObMyw

Tatsumaki: “Still, you have to convince mom Izuku. Understand?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA6x7lwXBLpe
150Please respect copyright.PENANAe1s1jatip4
Izuku: “Yes!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAeGo7rbjf4Z

150Please respect copyright.PENANAmwRuof2OUE
150Please respect copyright.PENANAwapbwvcSpq
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.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAtHuNttw0nh
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYz6y1qFq0K
Nezu: “You’re quirk is truly incredible. I would love to-”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAt2jY5ZdbhH
150Please respect copyright.PENANADOdQNE0bcj
Tatsumaki’s cold stare shut down any more ideas for experimentation.
150Please respect copyright.PENANASTBgsuTmdB
150Please respect copyright.PENANAvPzFs2Tn8T
Nezu: “Nevermind.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAOpWRgquVqk
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmo70gHLWy0
Izuku got up and bowed to the principal.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhoo1J1wdup

Nezu: "It's quite alright young man."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUjG221WMzd

Nezu sighed, lamenting the hectic day and the media frenzy.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqop3U6Z22u
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmzh3FXCoIr
Nezu: “Sadly, we're out of time today. But you'll still have Toshinori to train you today.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEZHoM7rI0P
150Please respect copyright.PENANAN1OXKhFRTT
Fubuki: “Maybe we should train him today instead.”

Valkyrie: “What about…me?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA08Nv5dWRzA
150Please respect copyright.PENANACKHl6BSbYQ
Nezu: “Hmmmm, in that form you don’t look like the famous vigilante. Perhaps…you can apply to U.A alongside Midoriya.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZBqN5GZuy
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkCQyRRAUEM
All Might: “That’s an excellent idea. Her experience in the field could even rub off on her fellow students.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA6OaLkXz1F2
150Please respect copyright.PENANATFE3fy1zJ1
All Might: ‘And she’ll become a licensed hero, instead of staying a Vigilante.’
150Please respect copyright.PENANA3qjSXFNOfB
150Please respect copyright.PENANAz0O2gDBsyq
Tatsumaki: “She could protect Izuku better that way too.”

Izuku: “Thank you Nezu!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAz99j6l3NI8
150Please respect copyright.PENANATpUQoDkakt
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.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAihVvjJoiu8
150Please respect copyright.PENANAz2cvPbtxrn
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAMmrtM6rh0Q
150Please respect copyright.PENANAskvnqUxbvQ
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAkiWvzLQV5L
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzNegil0B1R
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAa5KRTPfq9P
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8YJs5n0SLL
Izuku: "I will! Thank you for the advice, principal!"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhVhBeQjY47
150Please respect copyright.PENANAutdPh6FrJq
Nezu: "You're a good kid Midoriya-san. I can see what Toshinori saw in you. You have great potential!"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzCJ7T13wZF
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0tfaG7RAsI
He turned to the man in question as Izuku went scarlet.
150Please respect copyright.PENANArDGNWPuko2
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIP6GFGX4It
Nezu: "Speaking of, you intend to pass One For All to him, don't you?"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAHvnrKIIGw3
150Please respect copyright.PENANACAyPTEi1Xt
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAaQ7BCaOYhd
150Please respect copyright.PENANAmLunuU31nl
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAHlxToDZyIL
150Please respect copyright.PENANATezpG99oEL
Tatsumaki and All Might: “What?!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIaUoH9LlAg
150Please respect copyright.PENANAKWFUjg9Es0
Nezu let out a hard sigh and crossed his paws.
150Please respect copyright.PENANABX2PEvFLJ0
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPnUNilE3YB
Nezu: "Remind me again of the story your master told you? Of what happened to her when she first gained One For All."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAfxnxhGUNm4
150Please respect copyright.PENANAHUG4wrbyBS
All Might: "Master? Uh… If I recall, the first time she tried to use Float after she got One For All, she…"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYxSoXO1uT4
150Please respect copyright.PENANA37E9dUtn55
He blanched, finally remembering.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqMmwQgfw9p
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqlCbtkIatZ
All Might: "She…She…flew headfirst into a wall."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAgIp8nKHarL
150Please respect copyright.PENANA12QbNfsw6m
The Midoriya family widen their eyes while Valkyrie got a bit closer to her brother.
150Please respect copyright.PENANASvCJlaqsnd
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9cdA0Y3P41
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?"
150Please respect copyright.PENANA1Q43Ak2IZn
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqgWW0JyxWY
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
150Please respect copyright.PENANATXyrdH6Kaj
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPfmdehF3wj
Tatsumaki: “How could you forget that?”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAheMtRZeDFl
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYhxrXCAufr
All Might: “It was a long time ago!”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAXEe3r1e5Qq
150Please respect copyright.PENANAo5XseQsSIG
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAAgWLHkRsy9
150Please respect copyright.PENANAEtCC6Jrhml
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYsSJ5JKDUv
150Please respect copyright.PENANA4oChk92jBo
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"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAFA8zzNP1y3
150Please respect copyright.PENANA8BfKeWAgIZ
The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAuHkqswSZcd
150Please respect copyright.PENANAZknJOMFO5P
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANA2q6Cgfclx5
150Please respect copyright.PENANAK3d8hDQjnj
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAClBnL14Kgr
150Please respect copyright.PENANAyA9A562ESE
All Might: "He would far surpass me. He could be the greatest symbol this world has ever seen! Greater than me!"
150Please respect copyright.PENANAYXyEGIr0zR
150Please respect copyright.PENANAMWJOSuQTZm
Fubuki: “But that’s only if he can control it. It’s too dangerous.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAhriJAH6sHM
150Please respect copyright.PENANAH0jTymhNWJ
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9PbhROBysK
150Please respect copyright.PENANAMUxehpGnRM
Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAiDNQgH6hKZ
150Please respect copyright.PENANAReDziO36SD
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."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAvEetWmoIoC
150Please respect copyright.PENANASNA45Iv9Ei
All Might was looking even more deflated than usual. Chiyo spoke up, finally deciding to speak.
150Please respect copyright.PENANA9PRYLwL6Hr

Recovery Girl: "And the doomsday scenario…we already got a taste of that. Imagine that but-"

Tatsumaki: “We get it! No One For All.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANAay37G8dfEh
150Please respect copyright.PENANAf4KRq6097l
All Might: “You're all right. It was foolish of me to consider this course of action.”
150Please respect copyright.PENANA0luQupiC6X
150Please respect copyright.PENANAc0yh4vrwju
Nezu: "I'm sorry Toshinori. I know how extremely happy you were to have found your successor."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAqkMHM90ZGf
150Please respect copyright.PENANAs36DKncyoC
Izuku had stayed silent as they spoke, and for once, it was him putting his hand on All Might's shoulder.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAUiBaEijtRB
150Please respect copyright.PENANAVw7a5sQPKv
Izuku: "I'm sorry All Might. Looks like I messed things up already."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAzf56gmgKdu
150Please respect copyright.PENANAnqZu7evlFI
Toshinori smiled before bulking up.
150Please respect copyright.PENANACcHtArmqRB
150Please respect copyright.PENANADm764R0FGo
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!"
150Please respect copyright.PENANALXFHanuMUx
150Please respect copyright.PENANAF4XapXJjZo
He started laughing a little boisterously.
150Please respect copyright.PENANAsKQzEQEFTm
150Please respect copyright.PENANAPmHvoAFzuS
All Might: "I guess this does mean we can cut the physical training out of our schedule though."
150Please respect copyright.PENANAIDwqRErV9j
