Izuku, Fubuki, and Kiri glowed green before being lifted by Tatsumaki. She deposited them in a far corner of the central plaza before floating closer to their new location.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDhfqPNhqy
Seeing this, the other heroes decided to leave the Midoriya family to deal with their own. Kirishima gave a glance at Kiri while All Might looked toward Izuku, both filled with worry and concern.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVEj4newgu
Nezu: “Well everyone, let’s not waste any more time. We must tend to the students and the wounded.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrzndaf8PH
The heroes and students are snapped out of their inner thoughts enough to start regrouping properly. As for the Tatsumaki, she floats over her little siblings lying on soft grass unconscious. Fubuki is sitting down with her back against the wall.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fthh0etGO
The eldest sister looks over them, and Izuku’s wounds stand out the most. She takes a deep breath, trying to calm down. She knows she can’t blow up every time they get hurt. They’re going to be heroes after all.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aFPb8lj9o
But that doesn’t change how she feels.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDmXo0C3nc
Tatsumaki: “Give me names.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r4aCx8KOl
Fubuki: “Don’t know, but it’s dead.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylU4JEgu5e
Tatsumaki: “Dead?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEHvQ7BRlT
Fubuki: “Quirk beast.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqegG6NiTm
Tatsumaki: “I see; I hope it suffered.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSrXzRzy9w
Fubuki: “It did.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3u0pEnMYm
Tatsumaki: “…Tell me what happened.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWPBwCVUOL
Fubuki did so but made sure to keep Apotheosis’s relation to them secret. Her elder sister was doing very well at keeping calm, but that would break her tight control.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMDNTGlPrW
After the story was told, the two sisters kept silent for a moment. But it didn’t take long for Tatsumaki to start tightening her fist.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOe1ukQESm
Tatsumaki: “How could this happen? This is U.A High School, right? They should be able to protect their students better than this.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq69s8HsfVt
Fubuki: “… I don’t know. These weren’t just common villains. One of them inventing a psychic disruptor is unprecedented.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeBoOzCEjF
Tatsumaki: “And it will only get worse… won’t it?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiZrwXNeqe
Fubuki can see it in her sister’s increasingly intense gaze. A familiar madness she’s trying so hard to keep down. But seeing her brother and new sister hurt so soon into their first school year? With a crazy group of villains that can prevent her from knowing when her family is in danger?
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gTvWwC0IW
It’s too much.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAFzvcYuNf
The ground lightly shakes.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lxYXGwlYV
Tatsumaki: “If U.A can’t protect them…and with those villains out there… maybe you all don’t need to be-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTxmlyI9OL
Fubuki: “Tatsumaki!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSWupXzQPS
Tatsumaki’s eyes widen at her sister’s outburst, a rare sight indeed.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiu93yAoTf
Fubuki: “Don’t.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73KPCjfxu8
Tatsumaki’s shock quickly gives way to anger as she glares at her sister. But Fubuki doesn’t back down and glares back. Their staring contest continued until Fubuki spoke.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ1fy0BYIs
Fubuki: “Izuku and Kiri will be heroes. I will continue to be one. We can handle this like we did today.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHI8JiiQWj
Tatsumaki: “Today, maybe. But are you strong enough for tomorrow?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBFPcAWykU
Fubuki: “I-I’m getting stronger.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1aH1hBwnn
Tatsumaki: “Oh? Willing to prove it to me?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmhd8pxeIu
Fubuki’s mouth hangs open at what her sister is suggesting. A part of her wants to fight her, to finally prove that she can stand proudly by her sister. To finally impress her with her power.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWn3PbuZs7
But the bigger part remembers the terrifying power Tatsumaki has displayed before. So she hangs her head down.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrmomM2tjA
Fubuki: “No.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8s4JhUH3K
Tatsumaki: “I didn’t think so. Then it’s decided, until I handle this situation, you three will-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdV44qDciK
Then that old promise returned to her mind. The one she made with her mother, to not suffocate her family. To not be that monster from before. It’s nothing but a slippery slope.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhZbanxJtO
Tatsumaki grinds her teeth, almost regretting making that promise. But eventually, she calms down, and the ground settles.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vnYEHYhRW
Tatsumaki: “Never mind.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexCR9nPzVY
Fubuki: “Big sis?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacrin2Keh6
Tatsumaki: “I… trust this won’t happen again. That you, Izu, and Kiri will get stronger.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwZPG3LrJr
Fubuki: “Y-Yes, we won’t let you down! Thank you.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWPRr2KKwp
Tatsumaki: “… Okay.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjBOu8fZXz
Barely holding it together, Tatsumaki sighs and flies away. Fubuki watches her fly off with a somber look.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiW8Xr3637
Fubuki: “Big sis… ”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfQY7pYUJt
Fubuki: ‘I have to get stronger. I have to. As for Izuku…”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1APAsFiDi
She looks at her unconscious brother and remembers that sensation from before. That vile power that was far greater than what she expected from him.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpWRPMgz3D
Fubuki: ‘Something else I have to hide from Tatsu. I have no idea how she may react to it. Happy that he’s getting stronger or worried about the nature of such power.’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALsOdl1Coy
She sighs and pushes herself up. Worry fills her lungs, but she breathes it out. She has to keep moving forward for the sake of her family.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMoYu3X5Oi
She uses telekinesis to lift Izuku and Kiri before walking up to the other pro heroes.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjOk1nykP1
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZeYoG58WB
Inko was taking the day to relax and watch some of her drama shows. She hates how quiet the house is without Izuku or Kiri, so these shows are a good way to pass the time until they come home.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoQgrVKkpF
Inko: “Bella, how could you choose Eduardo over James?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDi3U3v8Qd
Doesn’t change the fact these shows are not the best things out there. But hey, if she can’t eat junk food all the time, then junk TV will have to do.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSxzr5m4mS
But a knock on the door got her attention. She paused and went to the door.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpOW7SuANt
Inko: “I wonder who it is?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dt4Ko7CwD
She opens it to see Tatsumaki with her eyes hidden behind her hair.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCka7Tefx0x
Inko: “Tatsu, what’s-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Kvhz2DpO
A tight hug and the feeling of tears wetting her shirt. The mother’s eyes widen at this surprise. Tatsumaki rarely cries.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN7Tw6arLu
She must be the perfect strong hero in the eyes of her siblings after all. She can never show weakness to them. The only exception is her mother, but even then, this is out of the ordinary.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv6bGXiagc
Something must have happened. Something serious.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1vpQlAiKh
Inko: “Tatsu, what happened?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJPVm8BurR
Tatsumaki: “I… don’t know how long I can keep that promise.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3hOAVNzup
The mother’s eyes widen even further. She remembers that time shortly after their father was… dealt with. Tatsumaki was scary back then. Controlling, overprotective, and nearly lethal to anyone who would even look their way.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVnneWibOr
It got so much worse when she learned Inko was pregnant. It’s not like they could stop her; even a young Tatsumaki was powerful.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOYah6JL7Y
So all Inko could do was beg after a practically bad fight between Fubuki and Tatsumaki. Beg and plead to a young Tatsumaki that was tearing the family apart.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iI8sTMGr1
She didn’t know what exactly broke through to her, but Tatsumaki saw what her actions were doing to her and Fubuki. She made the promise, and over time, she got better, especially when Izuku was born. The family healed and became what it is today. A family Inko cherishes beyond anything else.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv57d9Lv2EH
Inko: “Come in, tell me what happened.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXQT9tIIM0
Tatsumaki let go of her mother and rubbed the tears away before entering her home. Inko made some calming tea for Tatsu, and the two sat down at the wooden table.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqJMDlbh0x
Inko silently listened to Tatsumaki’s tale and tried her best not to interrupt. She won’t lie, even she was getting upset at the failure of U.A to protect their students. But she also understood that these things can happen.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMX2NO5bwS
The world of heroes is tough and unpredictable.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIwde2xvxp
Tatsumaki: “I kept my promise, mom, I didn’t interfere more than necessary. But… it’s so hard to just turn a blind eye.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqrzGPBqh1
Inko: “Sweetie, you’re not turning a blind eye. You’re just allowing them to take care of themselves. Based on what you told me, they did well.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb6AwliChD
Tatsumaki: “You weren’t there, Mom. You didn’t see how eerily still Kiri was or the burning smell of Izuku’s scorched arms. This… can’t keep happening, Mom. I’ll go mad.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrEzw1sT1E
Inko: “Tatsu… ”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZUTtELhnv
Tatsumaki: “I… can’t lose them. I couldn’t bear it.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAMiJ7S9zn
Inko: “Sweetie, you just have to trust them. They can-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAWtTw8kmN
Tatsumaki: “Trust? Trust! How can I trust them!? Fubuki wastes all of her time with her little group instead of getting stronger. Izuku and Kiri have potential, but they’re just kids! They can’t handle villains yet! If those villains see them as a serious threat and start to really try…”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6688rw0Cc
Tears start to form again in her eyes as she imagines the various horrible scenarios.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMBl0AyA9X
Tatsumaki: “They could have died, Mom! Fubuki, Izu, and Kiri could have died and I wouldn’t have even known! I wouldn’t have been able to do anything! You have no idea how it feels to have a normal day and then, out of nowhere, be bombarded with the collective pain of my siblings.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEXIasEYMo
Tatsumaki: “What’s the point of all this power if I can’t protect my family!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51PkqpDdOR
Tatsumaki: ‘I’m useless!’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaypD2l0My
It was then that she realized that she lost control for a split second. The table was cracked, and the building was shaking. But worst of all, was the small amount of fear within her mother’s eyes.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuMcnFxkey
Something she never wanted to see again.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QeJSMp5Cy
Tatsumaki: “I-I’m sorry. I’ll go.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTc4cGAn4F
Inko: “W-Wait, Tatsu-”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DWGHMjheQ
But it was too late; Tatsumaki quickly flew out of an open window, ignoring her mother’s pleas.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgCQxf4p0i
In the air, flying over the city, the eldest sibling with the largest burden wipes away her tears.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeKnAYZNcA
Tatsumaki: ‘If I can’t protect them from the villains, then I’ll just deal with the villains before they can harm them.’
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJcAL84UZe
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9we7OxGEU
Speaking of villains, before Tatsumaki talked with Fubuki, they were at their hangout recovering.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0w0aeQyFQ
Kurogiri was behind the counter cleaning the glass. Apotheosis was holding an ice bag over his head and eye on the couch. Tomura was drinking while sitting on one of the seats near the counter.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72PReM2Vgh
Tomura: “I can’t believe we failed! We even lost Nomu!”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88pgWbVfyb
Apotheosis: “There’s no such thing as failure. We’ll keep trying again and again until we succeed. Besides, I still managed to get some good data, so we’ll be better prepared next time. That’s assuming a certain someone joins us.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe0Aa9S6cF
Speak of him and he shall appear; Azrael walks through a mud portal.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol15345pc2
Tomura: “Well? Did you kill All Might?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPrxIDlG0m
Azrael: “No, just said some words and left. I wasn’t stupid enough to engage everyone by myself.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZAc221FHc
Tomura: “You wouldn’t have been alone if we fought together.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxByr3dgApP
Apotheosis: “Why commit ourselves that much to the first battle? Like I said, we’ll be better prepared next time, and we’ll win.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtghgbLxVK
Suddenly, the TV in the dimly lit room turns on. But there was nothing but a solid white. But the voice behind it was unmistakable.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixeGhEEWxk
All For One: “Well said, Apotheosis. Learn from this and keep going; sooner or later you three will succeed and become new symbols that will uproot this broken society.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SPHWZAAj1
All For One: “The Symbol of Revolution.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMjS6je7IC
Apotheosis smiles as he thinks about all the plans he has for the future.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEhYlHfHXy
All For One: “The Symbol of Vengeance.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBi5fBvDBS
Azrael’s eyes glow with hatred for a society that made him what he is.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGvpPqwVzP
All For One: “The Symbol of Terror.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDmMKR8jDf
Tomura turns the glass into dust and shakes with anticipation. His quirk and neck itch with the desire to unleash his wrath.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWOio0saEr
All For One: “But to do that, I think it’s finally time you three you meet our… partner. The one who helped secure the quirk beasts and even helped our good doctor create Nomu.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAeLLXygxF
Apotheosis: “Really? I have been curious about our mysterious benefactor.”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbWYjCSVkY
The screen turns off for a moment; the next second, a new picture is revealed. One of a quirk beast with one large eye.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnskMnhyDB

Something has changed.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwgMnaGMd1
The inner world of Izuku was different.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4px5CC8mR3
He found himself alone in a vast wasteland expanse with nothing but brass and gold sand as far as the eye could see. Well, no, there was something. At the horizon, there were massive gears slowly rotating. The sound of machinery softly echoed across the dunes.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpqALd6GzG
Then there was the sky. It was a dull brown, nothing special. That’s if you ignore the two green suns.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD9p7IHnef
One, the beating heart of infinity, and the other, the shape of a sleeping phoenix.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QFFxKAgBP
They beat down on him ceaselessly with dry hot fury. His skin felt unbearably hot under their fierce rays, and the sand gathered below his feet seemed to reflect that heat back at him. It was like this terrible place was trying to cook him alive.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySuJHE8TxP
But that’s when Izuku noticed what was truly below him. Deep beneath the brass sand, something was pulsating. It was an endless abyss, a red-writhing mass of chaos. If he stared long enough, he swore he could see shapes within, monstrous and unknowable shapes.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolC0stGdhj
It was too much.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xlOO6LgbU
It was too hot, and he was too thirsty to properly process this place. He needed help.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy51epDNLI0
Izuku: “Phoenix! Where am I?! What is this place!?”
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBK2fZpDq9
No answer except a cutting wind that kisses his cheeks. He could have sworn he heard a little girl laugh.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy5DKbV6QA
Ignoring that, he tried to survey his surroundings. He climbed up the tallest dune he could find and looked around. As he did, he noticed something.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo27lyZXALW
A tall figure in desert robes stood on a dune not far from the one he stood on. Although the distance was not that far, he could only hazily make out the figure. The heat caused the air itself to shimmer.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx8QIKv3lO
Regardless, he had a goal. He trudged through the sands towards the figure. As he got closer, he was blessedly in the shade of the figure. Looking up at her, he could make out the outline of a feminine form.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuF3Z6ESl9
Yet, he could not make out any further details. The halo effect of the glaring sun behind her was too strong. But it was clear she was gigantic… and powerful.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukd2TnfPB1
Her voice, more so. It reverberated through the whole desert.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgif9tbn61o
“Welcome, prince, our green sun, the… singularity.”

A/N: I made it!
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPJ4L14gJ2
Thank you so much for reading. This right here is the season 1 finale, and like every anime, breaks must be taken between seasons.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVyFWAJbz6
Now, I’ll try not to be gone for more than two months. But right now, my focus needs to be on a few other things. Like publishing a book, setting up another fanfic project that has been in the works longer than this (sadly not FoZ), and some grant writing.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTIicJW0jt
After that and more is done, I’ll return to this. I really like this story and don’t want to stop.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Afrz56XH5
In other news, you might have noticed there is one more chapter after this. Well, that’s the interlude. It’s not really a part of season 2, but it does have some important stuff and a scene I couldn’t include in season 1.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwduKfCZ3M
I hope you enjoyed the ride so far, and please review; it feeds my motivation. I also don’t mind rewriting some things based on well-thought-out and constructive reviews.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanUBfq3MWG
As for the multitude of references. I did copy some lines at the end there; I guess I have to spoil one part of it.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkFVXuIR0V

141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3g3DYVjwT
I swear, if I ever finish the whole story, I’ll probably have made the strongest version of Izuku that isn’t a crack fic or one-shot.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd1uDoccxn
Finally, Momo, Jiro, and Denki’s fight is nearly the same as the manga/anime. Because of that, I didn’t include it and decided to focus on the more important bits. Sadly, this will bite me in the foot in the long run. I’ll explain in the next chapter.
141Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3asK8X4wBI
Well, that’s it. See you next time, and once again, thank you so much for reading.
