Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrYEbrIhhG
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e6N6ORZgL
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjcU24Qpkc
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ9OH4EifE
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqOTAhU8SJ
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOceCXUUtDt
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNYhf9BvkB
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SZ882Iuy9
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ909uVukZnQ
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…
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL3pdVXEQO
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb403dnSzF
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr2EUgnu0N
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTqqLfk6BN
It’s everywhere.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oBzXXEs0F
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rNecC0rbK
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQAM014fxj
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTMqxA28EO
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeKTLRwGvV
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJBKb42vZ3
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecT3ZhOMuh
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77e86VW7ba
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMsRfvlDOJ
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIi00ZZ5BI
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlluahsHZNY
“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.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBVJkJzdRG
Izuku: “To do what?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAb4uEYSyY
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbowAT2P9KA
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOi6vN61OyG
But one thing keeps him grounded.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeDPeWmA4q
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.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHRuGXXpbD
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8m082Jfrk
“I knew I chose well.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MTYl0FZxM
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZl78EWme5
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzSz1mwoqj
“You’re waking up.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5seDQ0YFg
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmILTXHzId
“That, I have no doubt.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FGFHKxG2V
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv0siby2bq
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnV8rGxiyo
“…My name is-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQAYLawnhB
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaPMgxpwPn
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRioGOxHlSZ
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4lqH9QUg6
A lap pillow.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvWlJ7CK7b
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUdWLwWb82
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1oZjU9zIm
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzKaZY4EKW
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVT8goSGHl
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrbt8R4JGV
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHRq0gr5Nr
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUHPOqVBDc
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMaXl05oeg
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWXu2gEno3
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRgK6vDL2E
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizbqP9Ybvp
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhzVxdDpnt
Izuku: “Ow.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfXTm3ykFq
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbah7aRGjU
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IeSR3QjuH
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsz2gtWoR3
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEY8fFCadl
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlgvRynSQy
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0ZWY8chSz
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4eI348ros
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GDJK0m2Nq
Izuku: “Yes!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGfKzAkyrz
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqeSpnkmI3
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoEfrmfIAD
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9qdwHMDRF
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyaQRqQIgw
The place looked like a warzone!
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLG1Ps0mBb
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuQ7s700ou
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lbesaZEym
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVlQKiLn8g
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswQ89mT0Nz
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu1PFFetuG
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuwNSLuebf
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn9zHAY6cp
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREVyZtKHVb
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVS0XaPPMlZ
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LTBhVaEpJ
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9h8WTo9XD
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjD8I676Oa
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA7lW3qSKB
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdz2SM41qY
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsHnGOMZl4
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcc8frAhiN
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx574e6EoEn
No.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktjatJZa1v
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxByF4d61vv
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmKHknH4Wk
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOoZn6wXPd
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjauafPtxTc
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L0tyqgRvB
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RtZQcXI6V
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-
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uo9IFVUvT
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuyeTAySt9
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgAny2DEfD
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26SjogKqCg
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKELDOcEZkR
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwiHVWzmOV
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpR8qlBf2b
Valkyrie: “I-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIrS2UkTC6
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO06jCMmIgA
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0APyjzawvb
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI914zz5g8e
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yQvlE9sqa
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dpyMIqVHO
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDt5UgzpLk
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1k8hLWSwj
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOKAVyWk72
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2asluUNJXG
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIOlIalJDq
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhsy7i6lN5
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXeVPVqLTI
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOEoEnjmWv
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUE7ty802c
Yes, she was getting hurt.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OmMEbtIMT
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNO4pEiFZq
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wdxGxXufb
This couldn’t go on.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7I6GtTeDu
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWutSKDMkfC
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMutq20ZwI
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiX11ZiZf6
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq5hsl5BRP
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgQpp4kzgq
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4EGudCkXH
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3VXuc4z51
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywoAJhDmyF
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQMiZ8SRDK
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EN8REjlqs
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc3Xq9BBLK
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkO4ffHJFt
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNnPNPkRQD
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdww7jiullt
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa38beO7HN0
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbjY89WDRW
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEc0BxQH7ZN
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUxMpPH0Zc
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVg61wNuoo
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrS0g0hqFb
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOuYXahjYb
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi06cGbzcM
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLp240z5bW
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRWfzXj4u8
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGReAJyZoc
Valkyrie: “Family.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa4u2BCvqM
Wrong answer.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPAQ8xjsi5
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdRzRfn1zQ
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVkM9qh9Da
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3vms43k48
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf7WC3Lrbg
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfN2NBeiKW
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXEfHnKU5v
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw7dGnig74
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjFiuNYJUR
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMe8CLso86
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiKattIwOB
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUMsyBPSA4
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5dw6MzOM5
All eyes return to the fading boy.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWwkTj4cT3
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7BKyFCiWn
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODNLaueBgQ
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz5gNbVHTu
Tatsumaki: “How?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg1W6mSl8h
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FdeZlaeHQ
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBS5o6SUDV
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANDn6JD7lN
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfpWcohq5o
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu0WlmNl1z
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILFRoVGVRJ
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMgzqCBk0p
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBK9ANVQzO
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPSwWcu0jo
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVG61sqat5
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyCmIYRyr6
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4q7ySrOy1
She took a moment before nodding.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCyBgFLRRR
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FxzBUQuYv
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SxpZirWtJ
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp6p3wMS7A
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mNRN5qegL
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7FlhCi6rD
Fubuki: “Of course.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcSZygYo74
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl5a6xElYG
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%”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I1PsIRrDX
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvV1tiEkB0
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFDM7f8Ghb
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstPXwyboiq
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIBkqtUw4h
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOJvnQFWjS
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYQv3tcWgM
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6SSBM124V
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hX3oMeanG
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmJqEwLWeW
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUweyQwFreS
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrb5voPuZn
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJjjmlAB4u
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7RVw8lRYJ
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOOTxlwbRW
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.

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.

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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkv7GGBU3AF
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsy5SHZboq
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDwaMRiShi
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG1VzYDytX
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaE3YoT7Yz
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6Lg1UF8O2
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaQUlInj89
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4nfYOKTlf
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ1pQKkRyP
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdDCufrosK
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcp9OS7f53
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp3vLVcVHa
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENkKokNPZZ
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPbdkYwHY1
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSulGFTI14

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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFMU37Rjo4

'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHX3NziPfS
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w1FRNhRDA
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfsCRfjKyZ
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nhD1freYQ
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'

Something answered.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkSgZBKK4i
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gS21fBEUY
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.

Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sVVs0YFUD
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4ZzrAjRhD
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc9GfAtdnk
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCSLJ2acTX
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIdFT6UJgk
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHnUc17XEC
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xEMFfKm1W
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1JC5zZvN8
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7VpkDZh7s
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQDA678aJh
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGuT2Aj415
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT9fXT9Uex
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?"
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2VcO77GNX
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLTucFWTGL
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.

Izuku: "Ten years..."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf1LGxrb7c

He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jkAffkSLU
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLFdKicmF8
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTQZpKdpx0
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaNcwVCjNF
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs7SkppVq3
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PVOa0YJ6U
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7PnO9wxLe
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡis1uhSq4dH
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSFj5qJUHv

The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.

Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2rpYegQqu

Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOHmtebcAh
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fbVgMCX4d
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncrzsaSolZ

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGxxXAHiR6
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZorCLqmLF
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…
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmoVSGpUCd
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKF2BRzhj3
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0go1gObLD

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

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMG51WL9A0
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhudNxWjNkn
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvq4ByIktUZ

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOX2E3VD4z

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBffpDLWXqa
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT4eOtKmYi

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e7cWn6B21
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV94rh7ZvXB
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.”
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JjDDuN79Y
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTCSK7seZA
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK667sD6qR
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRupPIYpHcR
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlw0XtYfav
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yiGuhLXhd
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGLdDA00zL

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPDNtTkNZs
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1Km0w3mcw
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eocsp8AnI
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC4cuufTzx
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.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtO3jCaf4Q
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd2MFjOBdF
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?"
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW5AkDyHT6
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLRiSlQL98
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRn3JeKl4e
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBBrnXkM3q
Tatsumaki: “How could you forget that?”

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW4jLAACUc
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL2zXsz4Rj
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc8CFJxvKu
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDHHopmQdM
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcM3yHthLQR
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTlJ5UMMQr
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"
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7UYaTFHvt

The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5hamX8u1B
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvUkHgyHHz
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNCtPK0mCa
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm13wbaXtiM
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lbSPrpYz5
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkqHXu8lEI

575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjQYMpFd3k
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRfGUldT5f
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."
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgFJgxYVLx
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QDRRbh6eK
Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2QvxKbCmE
575Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1YIuS2d4g
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!"

He started laughing a little boisterously.

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

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

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

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