Izuku awoke, but not really. He doesn’t know how but he can feel that this isn’t real.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzR0Es64VNl
Maybe it’s the fact he’s in space and not dying a horrible death. Speaking of…
70Please respect copyright.PENANABcwxb4IEho
The boy looks at his skin and breathes a sigh of relief. He’s been healed. But that relief is replaced with concern.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3Gboi7HGgg
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAVJr5br1m0L
Izuku: “Am I…dead…?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdYDey48QzV
Tears begin to flow and float out into the endless cosmos.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfPzGCthGkn
All the years of ridicule and pain…for nothing. When he finally got his quirk he…killed himself with it.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPaEEhug2ip
His dreams lay shattered and broken on the floor of his heart. But that is not what causes the soul to ache.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYeVtZcitkx
Izuku: “Mom…Fubuki…Tatsu…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAub2TdTWQkn
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…
70Please respect copyright.PENANAveivbSowHs
Izuku: “I’m sorry…everyone…I-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPh3JKCCdkN
“Shh child. You are not dead.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANArWlrh1zx1P
Izuku whipes his head around, looking for the voice. After a moment, he realizes where it’s coming from.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPGsVtAT4Tn
It’s everywhere.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGfZuQT093v
Emerald bird eyes emerge out of the star night sky and look at Izuku. The emotions behind those eyes however, are hard to place.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAv36r2rgqSL
Izuku: “W-W-ho…w-what are you?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAwLtsAtmUYY
“The time for you to hear the full answer has not yet arrived. However, for now, you can call me friend.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxfvbsOaxOe
Izuku: “But…why? I don’t…understand.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnRlQyx1SfA
“You will with time, as you powers continue to grow.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAylL6e0f7Bo
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0M4CjvTIOm
With that knowledge, he can breath again.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAVo5a7V9GjE
Izuku: “Okay, then where are we?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOVGyz2ZI3E
“Within your mind, or more specifically, my…room within your mind.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhcUmqPqwfC
Izuku: “You’re inside me?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAU89BNFin2r
“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.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAtZRQj2Lfkj
Izuku: “To do what?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPxMXrKeulL
“To be the hero this world will need in the future.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2g7b3mGlph
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhOS8FkQA8T
But one thing keeps him grounded.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADCqfwrQlve
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.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAsklEvqibeg
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAN1EicnKRp2
“I knew I chose well.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdxFPHl6zlx
Suddenly, the space begins to shake and Izuku’s body fades in and out.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2KgkhBQF0k
Izuku: “What’s happening?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWxjmZI6mC3
“You’re waking up.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANATyHZvMACEk
Izuku: “I-I see. Will I see you again.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzRW9CMrb7M
“That, I have no doubt.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANABOMwfYKXbj
His body flickers once more, it’s almost time.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAewImb4iEMW
Izuku: “Wait! What is your name?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rvah2Y1Do
“…My name is-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAsJBhO4YWuh
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7QrfyKduyE
Izuku felt something soft and warm under his head. The sensation felt real. He was awakeand fully clothed.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4Nr9W5ePP1
He slowly opened his eyes and when he realized his position, he nearly screamed. But instead he could only blush wildly.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAHAeicVDFXz
A lap pillow.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAC02gJudXY2
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAyYHQWrTxIP
Before he could ask what alternative reality he found himself in, they noticed him.
70Please respect copyright.PENANATr31vf4hem
Fubuki: “Izuku, you’re awake!!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxbwZTnuAU4
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhkrNhIO98q
So he removed himself from her and took a breath before speaking.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAn7TbWZgjAx
Izuku: “Fubuki!? W-What happened? Why is Valkyrie here? Where am I? What happened?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7z8QHCDAB8
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGd3YgYNLrv
Tatsumaki: “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlfNH2WsLsN
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANADwZ6AA0jE1
He can feel a splash of water hit his cheek.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlIzpZWbEiA
Izuku: ‘It’s not raining though…and I’ve never seen Tatsu cry before…’
70Please respect copyright.PENANAA14R6GsEcd
Before he can think further, Tatsumaki let him go and chopped Izuku in the head.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7TfztI3zW8
Izuku: “Ow.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfSTn0mkoQ1
Fubuki: “S-Sister?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANASkGvTymstN
Tatsumaki: “That’s for scaring us all half to death! What were you think Izuku?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0DIdCfzDTm
Izuku: “I-I wanted to test-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA91Zy6EWP3m
Another chop to the head shut his mouth before he could answer.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKLBM2d1lKo
Tatsumaki: “Never. Again. You. Hear. Me.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1OlyueIKoL
Every period, another chop to Izuku’s head.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAMjKhkWm6pQ
Izuku: “Yes! I understand.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmi7AApXckd
Tatsumaki: “You promise?
70Please respect copyright.PENANASLBZyRHWnf
Izuku: “Yes!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANABY9ahwBSmS
Tatsumaki: “…Good.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAyEdjzfTdRY
Fubuki: “Was that really necessary?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA9xofjToJCq
Tatsumaki: “Yes, he needs to get it into his skull that this will never happen again.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAHiYP8oig9F
Izuku rubbed his head while looking around and it finally hit him.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA82ZJLGKJ1z
The place looked like a warzone!
70Please respect copyright.PENANAtYN6ICjRYj
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAddhmBm0R9x
Izuku: “Tatsu…where’s Nezu and All Might?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAse1io8BkuZ
For some reason, Tatsumaki looks at Valkyrie who looks away…
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJgyrcnvxcz
Fubuki: “Don’t look at her, you explain. You started it.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA51Sz2QpMTL
Tatsumaki: “…Fine.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAv7FbQn5ExS
70Please respect copyright.PENANAihLD8NMTfc
All Might could take Tatsumaki if he wanted to.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQt4dJRPMSd
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA9mrzwz46P2
They could have saved him quicker or shut down any notion of self-harm.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAP6TjazRv6J
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWDRjTvQQbk
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “IZUKU!!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAD4XQApMw7a
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANACoXxIAluig
Their faces filled with tears of worry and despair. The only saving grace was that his wounds were slowly healing.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7C2DzXlj8D
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANArfDzI000xx
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANACuVpaJkIjD
After that, Tatsumaki looked back at Nezu and All Might. Knowing what he should do, All Might stepped forward and explained everything.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5sh2ZzlINJ
No detail was left out and Tatsumaki kept eerily silent. But All Might knew she wasn’t calming down.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6hp70x4I6m
No.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAb2hEW2TsAb
He could feel in the atmosphere, she was close to exploding. This may be the most mad she has ever been.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAMtJaAWYHm6
When All Might was done, he took a bow.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6QTtdQilH8
All Might: “I take full responsibility. Do what you will Tatsumaki, for what I have done to young Midoriya.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYuEosRLVrD
Nezu: “I’m not free of blame either. I also take full responsibility.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAClLPOWoghj
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAf2ZLKopfBm
Fubuki catches her gaze with her own tear filled eyes. Fubuki couldn’t hold and looked away, causing more tears to fall.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAANSO9JAeE9
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-
70Please respect copyright.PENANAW2s38ddZ0W
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOtjbJaLfTV
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAcD5ZxQP2tr
Only half way did she feel the gazes. One of them being so full of anger that her skin seemed to burn from it.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAX4yONZFKgq
She looked at Tatsumaki who’s eyes are pin pricks. Her forehead is littered with wrathful veins.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAVohY7IP4MC
Tatsumaki: “What…did you just say?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAIA4x3p1C7w
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGljt1CJ1ot
Valkyrie: “I-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6GVvKSaTzR
Her words were caught off when she was violently crushed by Tatsumaki’s power.
70Please respect copyright.PENANATWf99byv3G
Tatsumaki: “Who. Are. You?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANATrSTZCvNWk
She strained her voice, trying to explained.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlHT0sXRI6a
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAr3uhxAUOrc
But that was the wrong word to use. She was slammed into one of the walls, making a deep indent.
70Please respect copyright.PENANArvuK0t5jij
Tatsumaki: “Don’t call me that! We are not family!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhoF8ANXRYp
If Valkyrie had a heart, it would break from that.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQOPYDNzXlr
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what you are but if you are connected to that man…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANARMd7GucFDF
Valkyrie was pushed further into the wall.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABQt13A3UDy
Tatsumaki: “Then I’ll force you to talk and then I’ll finish what I started.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZt2qwL8B4P
No more words were uttered as Valkyrie was flung through the wall and into the sky. The only option now was survival.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABz0wXazfpO
Tatsumaki followed but ripped up several parts of the gym along the way.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxSmRXrkis6
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANACqeY4cjVEt
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABPDdQ1ntZ0
Yes, she was getting hurt.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8CdMJjWHQL
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAiuhjMPoQ9U
The bright sun was blot out by a cloud of shrapnel and the eldest Midoriya was its conductor.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAHBFIxdOSP0
This couldn’t go on.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAd4qF7wU2fT
Valkyrie focused on where her older sister was and charged forward, ignoring the constant sharp pain.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABzgDAga9dH
If she won’t listen, Valkyrie will make her listen.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnHe6cJhXYb
Emerald light blazed in the girl’s eyes as she cocked her arm back in a very familiar fashion.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKrxIA0xGgO
Valkyrie: “DETROIT-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAtsPlHUZAzl
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAykcXdIkHZd
Valkyrie: “-SMAAAAAAAASH!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPbDYj1nnXC
A thunderclap of pure energy resonated through the air, dispersing the cloud of debris.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvnCihwYwR7
Tatsumaki is flung back down to the gym, fully engulfed in a green shield of psychic energy.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADvRHOOS0lh
She’s not damaged, but oh so much angrier.
70Please respect copyright.PENANApZ5G4FbpCw
She ripped spikes out of the earth and flung them at Valkyrie. But she easily tore through the attack.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJjbRGXLdqk
Valkyrie: “I’m sorry Onee-chan!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPr55eE0kt9
She got ready for another realm shaking blow, aiming to break the shield. Maybe after that, Tatsumaki will be willing to listen.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0D0tI3whTd
But instead, the elder sister smirked.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWbZ1agPY2h
Tatsumaki: “Tactile telekinesis, cute.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANApuhIboESfx
She reach out for Valkyrie and all of sudden, the vigilante lost all strength and fell to earth.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADPrictlXFK
But Tatsumaki wasn’t done. She used telekinesis to grab her and hammer her into the gym floor.
70Please respect copyright.PENANASpUBQ1tk36
Every slam, making Valkyrie flicker in and out of existence. After the 8th slam, Tatsumaki stopped and landed on Valkyrie’s chest.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWDqGB2cItN
Tatsumaki: “Now, answer my question. Who are you?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPbYlLU42Rg
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANARvMt6fCmSg
The vigilante looked to her beloved master, still barely alive. Fubuki was staring at the situation with equally parts shock and worry.
70Please respect copyright.PENANArzdc0ECW8E
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQkZWvbVIYz
Tatsumaki: “Don’t look at them.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZzxgPHvZPh
Valkyrie felt her face forced to look up at Tatsumaki.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmHR641PsF8
Tatsumaki: “Answer me.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhG0uPje5Zr
Valkyrie swallowed the lump in her chest and said the first thing that came to mind.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAADWKPMIk2I
Valkyrie: “Family.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6ShK9ggMQ
Wrong answer.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3Y8Nfnun73
The foot on her chest suddenly became one-hundred times heavier. For the first time ever, Valkyrie cried out in pain.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAB1dgkwjoua
Tatsumaki: “Liar.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJjntq0B64f
Unable to stand this cruelty any longer, All Might attempted to intervene.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqqUOIgmQnI
All Might: “Tatsumaki that’s-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxW8fgC5XLF
Tatsumaki: “Quiet. This doesn’t concern you.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8rTLcxPg1J
All Might bit his tongue but Fubuki didn’t.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAx3unuEn1z9
Fubuki: “Big sister…you’re going too far.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4wYl7mCrg7
Tatsumaki: “What!? You’re defending her too? Our mother doesn’t have any other children so that could only mean-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAF83pusJNtQ
Valkyrie: “Izuku-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZLwacApbT0
Everyone looked back to the weak Valkyrie, something many didn’t think they’d say, and waited for her next words.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfhGIhpZIXK
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan…created me…I’m…a mental construct…onee-chan.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmTwswGHZ5f
And just like that, the tension disappeared. Only confusion and surprise is left.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAAOf7BV46PM
All eyes return to the fading boy.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqhqOplGv2r
Nezu: “Fascinating…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAi3xgtM5LV6
Valkyrie: “I…can…help…onii-chan…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAt7KPlLLwv8
Tatsumaki looked back down at the woman.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvvaigqI1Ng
Tatsumaki: “How?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1SavOI084Q
Valkyrie: “Return some…power…that was…given…”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA63Nm2u7gJG
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuZKsGbS7Gl
Tatsumaki: “If you’re lying, even All Might won’t save you from me.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxH850VvK1r
Tatsumaki lifted her foot and used her powers to help Valkyrie over to Izuku.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAsOBd8zn6Kl
Tatsumaki: “Recovery Girl, how…is he?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqtQzcfBmty
Recovery Girl: “Let’s just say, I hope Valkyrie can help.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAjzyVaLS95O
Tatsumaki: “…Go on.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAl3n2l4QG69
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvz4dfcmPWo
Tired, she sat down and took a breather.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1OIehSZrzz
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzynwLpO4BT
All Might turned to Valkyrie.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4QytzKDrmQ
All Might: “Thank you for saving young Midoriya.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7z6fJYQdYe
She took a moment before nodding.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6lEJ7oFME2
Nezu: “Now that Midoriya is on the road to recovery, may I ask one of you to fix the damage.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANASwIKHMer70
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAbEYEkQOXqR
All Might: “I’ll help clean up. It’s the least I can do.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAszIg2cZJow
Tatsumaki: “I-I’ll help too.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZsY0m9KhtH
Nezu: “Thank you. I assume you three can look after Midoriya?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAz9Q7IvlC9p
Fubuki: “Of course.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5FqkFb5HVX
Valkyrie: “Nh.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAjag1x77FiC
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%”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1zhBV8BDdr
Nezu: “Excellent, I’ll…make sure the media doesn’t get any funny ideas due to the damage.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAXcTPi8vDIu
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6R1g0miw73
The whole story left Izuku speechless but the most surprising thing was Valkyrie. Not only can she talk but she was…his mental construct?
70Please respect copyright.PENANAeAIafxJFtr
He looks to her, long since returned to her normal form, and asked the obvious.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgO6MOOluRW
Izuku: “But how? I don’t remember doing that.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAC6lbTWqmM0
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I would like to know.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAm3z4a8VWR0
Fubuki: “But she did heal Izuku.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAv6LfjROYDP
Tatsumaki: “I know! It’s just…this is a lot to take in. She still could be lying.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAeiMA2zGE9H
Fubuki: “Can you prove it to us Valkyrie? That you are…our brother’s creation.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhXzW2g6MPr
The vigilante looked at her family and nodded. She looked at Izuku with some startling intensity.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAyeCbJOC4bG
Valkyrie: “Share memories.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGaieVNkZKq
Izuku: “Okay…how?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAcbHGXhLeCI
Valkyrie got closer to her brother and cupped his face. Slowly, deliberately, she inched her face closer to his.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAd5fD0SONdO
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuAi4bdCxjj
Tatsumaki: "W-w-w-w-w-w-what are you doing?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5WPXdJ5Kzc
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGPgF9YRMXs
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADYmQHBwqS9
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0IWtcL9DvB
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgMcqq6nWjk
70Please respect copyright.PENANA39yEU15cvw
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqGxPw6bb62
70Please respect copyright.PENANADZMIPhvMpj
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgHfAJGEpj8
70Please respect copyright.PENANAj16xj0yXjK
With a start, he realized Valkyrie was sharing her memories with him.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvd6he2Fzmj
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlADRhChqf1
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAbzGjrj2HEU
70Please respect copyright.PENANAcNQW847Eqc
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANApn4Jc1q5RL

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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxYrEJJWyan
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzJI9F34wvH
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAH9V1Fppu9n
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7UecYh0L45
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.

70Please respect copyright.PENANAFufehPwa8w
'A super-cool hero like that. Can I… be a Hero, too?'
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqcAkm9Fo1A
70Please respect copyright.PENANATnnGC78E2z
Izuku heard himself ask, his voice youthful but full of sorrow.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfBlci6AxLk
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvHT0wjtov3
'Hero. I will be a Hero for you, onii-chan.'
70Please respect copyright.PENANAa6Y1wCM5C4
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQvbfMTIWNa
Something answered.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA65tT5BtDJb
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2wmC6vAU9t
Izuku pulled away, gasping horribly.
70Please respect copyright.PENANACK6bI1alAk

Fubuki: “Izuku, are you alright?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzKbABYoW1H
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZOjl444Pdn
Tatsumaki: “Valkyrie…if you hurt him-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAaaEIrwKtns
70Please respect copyright.PENANA12vrSWBgrZ
Izuku: “No! She…was telling the truth. I just saw all ten years of her memories.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6oFM206XXj
70Please respect copyright.PENANAaYSvfJQmVI
The two sisters’ eyes widen before looking back to Valkyrie. She waited expectantly for the final verdict.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAe8UtDnzQbx
70Please respect copyright.PENANAiUeHSdwJO5
As for Izuku, he was still breathing hard, taking deep breaths and nearly hyperventilating at the information overload.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAX3l9XpCari
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgmY4qlcJ3n
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAc4GBfF8nZH
70Please respect copyright.PENANAftwk09dzaS
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAG8yvxpIMtt
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqaK6OWVGpP
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?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAG7Emsi4TiF
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgUbenwnW38
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfHgfNm89aT
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdMPPVWN8Hw
Izuku: "Ten years..."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8JjCE6Eqbp
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWuRbVBDPkN
He had created her. She was yet another part of his Quirk. Then it hit him.
70Please respect copyright.PENANARyGHZpwE1g
70Please respect copyright.PENANAiAIXRQzYqo
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAUmAhGRM1NG
70Please respect copyright.PENANADEGLqaebb0
Considering the dangers she faced and her surprisingly shy nature, he got it. The young boy reached out with a single, shivering hand.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhzAZPGIe8W
70Please respect copyright.PENANANOBJDpTdYT
She put her hand onto his without hesitation and their fingers interlocked for a single, beautiful moment before he pulled away.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0Sy7FeSwXF
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuSj88PqFHf
Izuku: "I... don't know what to say."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKzc36XoiiA
70Please respect copyright.PENANAv6dpoAJJHl
The boy whispered, feeling a strange sense of guilt even though it wasn't his fault.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4kZoPfnw1T
70Please respect copyright.PENANAb5NJ1PQS0w
Izuku: "You must have been so lonely."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA906XLPuo36
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYucAQkLQtt
Valkyrie blinked…and blinked again. Tears flowed as she shrunk down to her child form and tackled her brother.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYyULiZDeix
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJSI410z5ng
Valkyrie: “Onii-chan!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdlYdIIRp7N
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfZCWE7S0TS
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAUij6wdnHMo
70Please respect copyright.PENANAA17D8mbWIC
Izuku: "I guess… that makes you my little sister?”

70Please respect copyright.PENANA0kHg0tuKNq

Izuku: “Is it that bad?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2XYXkWSiJL
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2aGrRXVoHn
Tatsumaki: “Look, I believe that Valkyrie is your mental creation. But calling her my…little sister? Having her apart of our family?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgPwFKj2DGF
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvNt8TcfhT2
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…
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y16ewlxWx
70Please respect copyright.PENANACGi8pydk7V
Fubuki: “I agree, we don’t need her.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkh9SuigpUq

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

70Please respect copyright.PENANAIjsbcDtZJ4
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKwFkbPgiU0
Fubuki bit her lip, understanding what her sister was trying to explain. But a corner of her mind still whispers.

‘This is just the first step. You’ll be replaced. You’ll be left behind.’
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1OrbrMqIla

70Please respect copyright.PENANAdweinT3k1g
70Please respect copyright.PENANAU6C1fxi5jj
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANArvyCUCraIw
70Please respect copyright.PENANAordlHcWEoO
Nezu: “You’re quirk is truly incredible. I would love to-”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuN5e8xJCOh
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxeEHSjVUGt
Tatsumaki’s cold stare shut down any more ideas for experimentation.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAF4wsdDzKEw
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2wpOLUKbkI
Nezu: “Nevermind.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA68Tw8a1c3G
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZjN2As5v4I
Izuku got up and bowed to the principal.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA011UTMv8ij
70Please respect copyright.PENANAP9JYZdz8tD

Nezu: "It's quite alright young man."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAclF5Lo6VT7

Nezu sighed, lamenting the hectic day and the media frenzy.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlNq85Mrrqh
70Please respect copyright.PENANA55fLBejzcB
Nezu: “Sadly, we're out of time today. But you'll still have Toshinori to train you today.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAafSa4qvno7
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxyrijQ90s5
Fubuki: “Maybe we should train him today instead.”

70Please respect copyright.PENANAFNmLcDdOau
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvuoCju05fE
Nezu: “Hmmmm, in that form you don’t look like the famous vigilante. Perhaps…you can apply to U.A alongside Midoriya.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1KCTDJP0tQ
70Please respect copyright.PENANAzWll2pWXM1
All Might: “That’s an excellent idea. Her experience in the field could even rub off on her fellow students.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkQJkb8rWf3
70Please respect copyright.PENANADrJYqy64MN
All Might: ‘And she’ll become a licensed hero, instead of staying a Vigilante.’
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2y5zTJ7MMW

Tatsumaki: “She could protect Izuku better that way too.”

Izuku: “Thank you Nezu!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4spln9MJjf
70Please respect copyright.PENANAipsyqrUcus
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.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhJtj1vm5Gu
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6fMvniPNiX
Unlike your sisters didn’t need to be said. Fubuki shrunk further into the background.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuNXAcXkD4N
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhbaQeqUgyL
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5nFpXYkeOX
70Please respect copyright.PENANAw7yaN0QuEq
Izuku almost started to drool over the idea of finding himself some centuries-old stories to read.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA53Ki1JekrW
70Please respect copyright.PENANALtLz7YfIIs
Izuku: "I will! Thank you for the advice, principal!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANACsA3xY0Lri
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxHynwJZVg9

70Please respect copyright.PENANAGYQd5JWEHx
70Please respect copyright.PENANAUNNMrrsFWo
He turned to the man in question as Izuku went scarlet.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAB9nE77AOhy
70Please respect copyright.PENANAD2ruShJimp
Nezu: "Speaking of, you intend to pass One For All to him, don't you?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvGOqsndtsB
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2ef3Rt44SF
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAs7hTOWUe7v
70Please respect copyright.PENANAMVyoqEX95y
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAr1OQpmZ1Iy
70Please respect copyright.PENANAG7uYjihNqS
Tatsumaki and All Might: “What?!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOVtJS87ArO
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJOprANU08p
Nezu let out a hard sigh and crossed his paws.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAycVST8VpWj
70Please respect copyright.PENANAuTnVuyZeTd
Nezu: "Remind me again of the story your master told you? Of what happened to her when she first gained One For All."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxTu3q1f9v8
70Please respect copyright.PENANANGRLjmQg8C
All Might: "Master? Uh… If I recall, the first time she tried to use Float after she got One For All, she…"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAUbc3Yl07ue
70Please respect copyright.PENANAHl7wX9mOvj
He blanched, finally remembering.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJTEimdRIo6
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZDKdGJTV59
All Might: "She…She…flew headfirst into a wall."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5rLrfO99ev
70Please respect copyright.PENANAD7xv020KdV
The Midoriya family widen their eyes while Valkyrie got a bit closer to her brother.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADT6mwWCcDy
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJi2b8aq6UX
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?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkkBPxpTrGM
70Please respect copyright.PENANAddZ5uS4Ffv
He asked in a tone that made it very clear the question was rhetorical. Izuku looked pale and clammy at the thought.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQGFjz5svO9
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJPE4ERy1d3
Tatsumaki: “How could you forget that?”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgfRDC8GsCJ
70Please respect copyright.PENANAD8oIascQVW
All Might: “It was a long time ago!”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGChBRm854y
70Please respect copyright.PENANABRfK9uNGkl
Nezu: "Now there’s no guarantee that this would happen. After all, one is hardly a large enough sample size."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGPEJcFI9La
70Please respect copyright.PENANAodMcLM82Fx
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAn6aEy7Z3lz
70Please respect copyright.PENANAAp9r0KPnKB
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"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAHSGIeLJWIA
70Please respect copyright.PENANAIxM9JpLKAU
The Midoriya girls smile at his words.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKVS7QWyhf3
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4zZGZvNImL
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA1f75Y1tY9e
70Please respect copyright.PENANAEykpDTmLKl
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAilK4c8OyPH
70Please respect copyright.PENANAyxhS6K46E1
All Might: "He would far surpass me. He could be the greatest symbol this world has ever seen! Greater than me!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAstBYXvpZ9z
70Please respect copyright.PENANACSVZrd6N9w
Fubuki: “But that’s only if he can control it. It’s too dangerous.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOiNt6Yl94O
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3WNhdcDCAv
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANANhwl3postF
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPcXgx6YsaW
Nezu admonished the Greatest Hero, drawing a flinch at the name of his sensei.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkgLJqA3FC3
70Please respect copyright.PENANApm52ULek8D
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."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA37pBiUl8vi
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8BmVkLWJBU
All Might was looking even more deflated than usual. Chiyo spoke up, finally deciding to speak.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYFfaJ3GoIg
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkh2pAm04op
Recovery Girl: "And the doomsday scenario…we already got a taste of that. Imagine that but-"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKLInxeeA7n

Tatsumaki: “We get it! No One For All.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYd0s417rlz
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7GZFuOD5TX
All Might: “You're all right. It was foolish of me to consider this course of action.”
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdk5MXP05t0
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0ItzvijG3J
Nezu: "I'm sorry Toshinori. I know how extremely happy you were to have found your successor."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAaW9VMIPt5x
70Please respect copyright.PENANAs59Lp8pYte
Izuku had stayed silent as they spoke, and for once, it was him putting his hand on All Might's shoulder.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOEt2iSvdMH
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOIAo25FpGs
Izuku: "I'm sorry All Might. Looks like I messed things up already."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAT9vxNYKxsU
70Please respect copyright.PENANAdBJwgaii4f
Toshinori smiled before bulking up.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAifV9sDzkZy
70Please respect copyright.PENANAVUG3aGdKBR
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!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAGL9Swqkqw2
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4khZbalwZW
He started laughing a little boisterously.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhKZ4EWuoel
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnXZWu7R0Tg
All Might: "I guess this does mean we can cut the physical training out of our schedule though."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAziQhB9qlzN
70Please respect copyright.PENANA21FxDZ9US7
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!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANACzy5zeBpKM
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPUebkxX3RH
He then surprised All Might with his next statement.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAXWzQ1IVYXU
70Please respect copyright.PENANAwjUcZvbZud
Izuku: "And we should still keep it in. A hero shouldn't be a one-trick-pony, right?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAB7VVXKt8jN
70Please respect copyright.PENANAW9h2vXo6CX
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.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAjbBtGYoU1W
70Please respect copyright.PENANAAz5pvHJFLk
All Might: "I don't think your Quirk counts as just one trick, but it is up to you."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAQxqAUeO7U2
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2ccZeIHnfV
Everyone smiled at the scene. But there were two that were overly relieved by this news.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgSB8kkttkz
70Please respect copyright.PENANAtgdTl7LhPY
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.
