Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EQuxS5QRx
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXS0u6syWj
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwioAW1SZex
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfAWmC5aUO
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv1QdrDZ7o
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiyw8yEV7I
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdtH6aXzGC
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERAYIGTpoS
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEc9QWj4wj
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…
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsFCG1c0Di
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP5gZESNjx
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX1OB99dik
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1ybe5m9F7
It’s everywhere.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm5AvMStJR
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKXY4DQYyJ
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxHarWgREs
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2kFklqeKI
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nE7spxupC
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIuWCb4QPk
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcDFKOWV6t
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9Iohdzt8h
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu2AbS2xN4
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaBQL8LBQ0
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AbSzJ1Zq0
“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.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi19KLURtF
Izuku: “To do what?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRPGAQHVPC
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOOmQlCAMY
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIQPyQEQAW
But one thing keeps him grounded.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vJir1sj8U
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.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadCxn3qzEE
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARoFj2jxGQ
“I knew I chose well.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDT8HX1aeq
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafIujsbRyI
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQvHSGUVhR
“You’re waking up.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAtzlfgZiF
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVPmLerfSn
“That, I have no doubt.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HaAppPLha
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9FpgQOwFZ
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuQXm6Ss6Q
“…My name is-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdvaz2yYrh
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbR5PLVSkz
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptWYuUAP0z
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNwDP4OaSx
A lap pillow.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H9pwY20Be
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5qJhIZ3mF
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUDLfBSxyL
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf47CM5dLw
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPji9VXQXWS
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxRtXTE4iw
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cgD3NvKH6
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB77QrJ2q6R
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4nXez9cKu
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPd43thMEC
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx6F7jjTCx
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUpfS7wLoq
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVggh3Qoqe
Izuku: “Ow.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iJ1nsTScN
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFrwiDTcis
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQIHiaar30
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpLk2uha00
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTjKWqXDVi
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq7Vc5RsRV
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdQUJsgRer
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTou0MxQZxS
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBd3lVnlie
Izuku: “Yes!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa29bgwm1G
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOzQmVnTde
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF6hr4vrTU
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfHgmZcxn6
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAmK00wINm
The place looked like a warzone!
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5me5OFAAH
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdKC5PDNZH
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf0yW9Clxa
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2skmsK1EH
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrcFtz5toG
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipHkOPze6L
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokCTjEPCsQ
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnBqQ0V8LJ
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp7gnxHS8A
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XcBQRxIZO
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKhkESf0zU
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76tUBfFedB
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ERXO9UgBq
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMt10hQxKa
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1pjoNfzst
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UlEcFjvOI
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pkqiPL5Bk
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ74gCqFt5D
No.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjuTSp41bg
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwNSHAKuNn
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDGRVBtEUq
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFrPJ1Ibyw
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDnYHG6kFz
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77KVhFUear
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiiqMVoPTK
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-
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqWNFpWWlP
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kn1oNzFc5
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplMOHK540w
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonIpDWiahI
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NVOkEiNBI
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEenEz8756P
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAI8QCmmFg
Valkyrie: “I-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A2cNjeapA
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs8Zu71iHA
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrLbr6DpuJ
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia8gnkTsgF
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqrLWT1WOJ
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJCnT9dobZ
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwVFAZKEjq
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbCMDBGHRP
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEJMVwNlAw
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOac35C4gkM
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZquFVEARZM
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Mqgv7eonX
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXjtbTE3Le
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNm934UdInn
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7Z8eOyg5p
Yes, she was getting hurt.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85556bp4V7
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ0Kfh4zPT
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbHPozaUPS
This couldn’t go on.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bc8H88nkP
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8pKZ8dR4C
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNsrvW8ICQ
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcCR2zJoWJ
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7UGQ3Uyzt
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2VF0jQ3qr
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuNG6abnQ6
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnPy0wPm1R
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP8dXS55wg
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCKdMiy9Hp
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVxhgEpULx
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHiFYB2eJJ
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLTXAVUaCe
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9GZBRci5O
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHktUNJkro
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t4JWB4RaD
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NsGHrFsCu
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YJqfQIUPP
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86nnUpBd2e
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi40emJUsCz
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfPSQ9PWfp
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeXL7RYZ8H
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcSqiX3Sai
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKddC2uI2ou
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyymlf98KR
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZyNfTpVCJ
Valkyrie: “Family.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglQUUf2yY6
Wrong answer.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWr3ynKVxp
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0h3qnR2nTk
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgB5EZTnnQ
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8nWoZyV2W
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oL3rDl9hF
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0nvPmckYD
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxMJ0d3xzr
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjMMMIUYOL
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFZT3NJxew
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwY3Op1OW6
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfmCv346kY
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlxKUueQrH
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma3OI0l3nM
All eyes return to the fading boy.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLgdbj5kgJ
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa4csXy14D
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jPxIDr58h
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKaYOkXirh
Tatsumaki: “How?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w3n3fHWcF
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wOMaqYV07
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jVA17tczv
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM9OKb2tcP
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a29V6qBwU
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXwCoDbqN0
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAGDDZmdO8
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7mXaio5Mu
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZHYsjhxjr
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ihqm1We9r
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79p0F78fIO
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGULPBLjVJ
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dgT5ipMsl
She took a moment before nodding.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tHO7FVmi5
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrr0MRz0XZ
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6AQ6NYfE6
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl4PeX8cIK
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GVbS4avBr
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAF25LX5YP
Fubuki: “Of course.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUDBUj0loB
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjO2NTqHo2
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%”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HhAOdHvIa
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMACIz7yql
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKQbl498aT
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ476vLSHNH7
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpru6Otyh3o
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz3RRbadEH
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vGylEr6yK
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye10uHFYKK
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8U1pqI55D
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaoQCVLLZz
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG33uDXojsd
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOqHrNAIwb
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv45U4aPus4
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc2p3LWohV
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZAa9WTPCq
Tatsumaki: "W-w-w-w-w-w-what are you doing?"
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtZora4qtD
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsLivFHN0z
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL6Y6SXVz4
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom0wiiHffy
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99s05rK8wJ
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfC1RxKvUL
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvCKmjNUrB
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU2RgNhXjk
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2kfMtK66i
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1KulqXYBK
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrys7TbDHyC

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerkGhtGhGA
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiiS3KuoOC
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdQB1kIxwp

'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ohnOcZuYU

Something answered.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ19y54poT

Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYNkHVtMRs

Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQOBZN8bm3

The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH73lGGg5R

As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSXUMBkX2x
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVrw1rvPHM
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQt6PtwMa9
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAI5ugP58I
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxlE4WJSX4
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLUnSG8S9C
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?"
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqY3s9sh5AG
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSljPqoXrm
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.

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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQGxRzvRJJ
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAj1FElv8O
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7CINTzeAd
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJrZK1NIaM
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.

Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XRjDIxSm7
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Owu6ddKmA

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsGQcXbBxB
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cbLOCkdgI
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…

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkc4F76HtQ
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.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYREp02QgBB
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58Sts0fGAV

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpnmSBTzEk
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.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v3W5ZLsvk

Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2RGKtgn21
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdNIhnniZv
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."
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFhVHBz7GD
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4r84wlPEv
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4gaaqtffR
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW8aw2lMI5
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."
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ814OUAq8MF
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WbuwWFZwK
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."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv7e5BEBdG
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?"
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2GW5nhhnM
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG0DhR9saJ
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx43DiLNWC
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN73mvNMXGR
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."
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkD9K2it4b3
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6fFeiHV4J

The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKdm3p6YWf
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LotAQG99L

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSc8Gg520U
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOWi1z9DlV
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."
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKgbtSKv3U
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjQW6Sy6Tu

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyuVlzOUrK
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."
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTscVZy1ZLQ

Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQwWJMnsn3
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLObA76IjP
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."
