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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7SajjPsII
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXAei6iJ0d
Nezu: “Well everyone, let’s not waste any more time. We must tend to the students and the wounded.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFInzFiAXSX
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxUl1pEsxf
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtdf6FQhSD
But that doesn’t change how she feels.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKZ73kTOIH
Tatsumaki: “Give me names.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAttRVMnbZ
Fubuki: “Don’t know, but it’s dead.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pW1OmLXGV
Tatsumaki: “Dead?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHuvWcE3Qy
Fubuki: “Quirk beast.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIeRyY7Tm9
Tatsumaki: “I see; I hope it suffered.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUqjYmxyau
Fubuki: “It did.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtoIK5BevJ
Tatsumaki: “…Tell me what happened.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6LGvWoeTe
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJS5wzq3wb
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ791IVD5TnH
Tatsumaki: “How could this happen? This is U.A High School, right? They should be able to protect their students better than this.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNl6ZNa0qz
Fubuki: “… I don’t know. These weren’t just common villains. One of them inventing a psychic disruptor is unprecedented.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr3fh8aCbA
Tatsumaki: “And it will only get worse… won’t it?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F4WYeOaR6
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?
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlBLtlCC86
It’s too much.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooG6TME2fT
The ground lightly shakes.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKILhPsQkKK
Tatsumaki: “If U.A can’t protect them…and with those villains out there… maybe you all don’t need to be-”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5VflNGnAU
Fubuki: “Tatsumaki!”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHy4YTxTDX
Tatsumaki’s eyes widen at her sister’s outburst, a rare sight indeed.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVC7m8wjUk
Fubuki: “Don’t.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F64HeT5jU
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemv3uszo0p
Fubuki: “Izuku and Kiri will be heroes. I will continue to be one. We can handle this like we did today.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mvCqPhl2W
Tatsumaki: “Today, maybe. But are you strong enough for tomorrow?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtUmhT938a
Fubuki: “I-I’m getting stronger.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV9C43NH1o
Tatsumaki: “Oh? Willing to prove it to me?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWx1mKVOEz
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypNJKmRCFK
But the bigger part remembers the terrifying power Tatsumaki has displayed before. So she hangs her head down.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglsBKXJR3I
Fubuki: “No.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCMG9MHAdL
Tatsumaki: “I didn’t think so. Then it’s decided, until I handle this situation, you three will-”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqag7HBJk7
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCvXDt24IV
Tatsumaki grinds her teeth, almost regretting making that promise. But eventually, she calms down, and the ground settles.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m7cxmJLFq
Tatsumaki: “Never mind.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBbk1tT7ov
Fubuki: “Big sis?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUuwabJT3N
Tatsumaki: “I… trust this won’t happen again. That you, Izu, and Kiri will get stronger.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfszoQjETnU
Fubuki: “Y-Yes, we won’t let you down! Thank you.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XFLPtCWI6
Tatsumaki: “… Okay.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDIVg5d5yK
Barely holding it together, Tatsumaki sighs and flies away. Fubuki watches her fly off with a somber look.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8Z3mXEeZf
Fubuki: “Big sis… ”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNqg1QMpsP
Fubuki: ‘I have to get stronger. I have to. As for Izuku…”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqGpqOLuqY
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Ym3jCFTn
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.’
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcWp90dMz6
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeH6NP3DCS
She uses telekinesis to lift Izuku and Kiri before walking up to the other pro heroes.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0trHlaS7i6
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCwmB0WU7D
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw0yaIFVoB
Inko: “Bella, how could you choose Eduardo over James?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwsylc2pdd
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UGs9GFEnG
But a knock on the door got her attention. She paused and went to the door.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4iDPHbIxf
Inko: “I wonder who it is?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr3Iw1tDwM
She opens it to see Tatsumaki with her eyes hidden behind her hair.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurVzZguqix
Inko: “Tatsu, what’s-”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GSFjgIWxb
A tight hug and the feeling of tears wetting her shirt. The mother’s eyes widen at this surprise. Tatsumaki rarely cries.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4cpTb0dNm
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF350n0ZtEL
Something must have happened. Something serious.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nwENX4BTl
Inko: “Tatsu, what happened?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFaFO4ver8
Tatsumaki: “I… don’t know how long I can keep that promise.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw2TvMqqvS
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGNX5Hj2BU
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQyqghwMWG
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡent9lXkErs
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z45P28SGF
Inko: “Come in, tell me what happened.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJx1hiYDzU
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwExRuX4F4
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgV1EhxQwSr
The world of heroes is tough and unpredictable.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApMFhdjvLV
Tatsumaki: “I kept my promise, mom, I didn’t interfere more than necessary. But… it’s so hard to just turn a blind eye.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuHTMQU0jM
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKME4pKFFg
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6WWZ5XCWr
Inko: “Tatsu… ”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXCJq1Yj4F
Tatsumaki: “I… can’t lose them. I couldn’t bear it.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK54mXZZaIu
Inko: “Sweetie, you just have to trust them. They can-”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSFb8b671Y
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…”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqogw65gXz
Tears start to form again in her eyes as she imagines the various horrible scenarios.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5nBXO1KjM
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo6szcf660
Tatsumaki: “What’s the point of all this power if I can’t protect my family!”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZhatMrCn5
Tatsumaki: ‘I’m useless!’
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6xtam595W
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFSVtFKmUb
Something she never wanted to see again.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPs40EQ2D2
Tatsumaki: “I-I’m sorry. I’ll go.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gPAvYnmdx
Inko: “W-Wait, Tatsu-”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwWljMoyC1
But it was too late; Tatsumaki quickly flew out of an open window, ignoring her mother’s pleas.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQR48cFbYK
In the air, flying over the city, the eldest sibling with the largest burden wipes away her tears.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxzu1NOGIQ
Tatsumaki: ‘If I can’t protect them from the villains, then I’ll just deal with the villains before they can harm them.’
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKEA7a82fl
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMZDEVNwG7
Speaking of villains, before Tatsumaki talked with Fubuki, they were at their hangout recovering.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9GdYGPkAu
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv79cwiaqJ
Tomura: “I can’t believe we failed! We even lost Nomu!”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oFQcMWftf
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXP1vcLnGU
Speak of him and he shall appear; Azrael walks through a mud portal.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJtNusEZVN
Tomura: “Well? Did you kill All Might?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh9mxG4Ctc
Azrael: “No, just said some words and left. I wasn’t stupid enough to engage everyone by myself.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDHE2rPCcQ
Tomura: “You wouldn’t have been alone if we fought together.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9izeNmlHlc
Apotheosis: “Why commit ourselves that much to the first battle? Like I said, we’ll be better prepared next time, and we’ll win.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXYsx9mXwe
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUH5i2n2fG
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUXcHdBZyw
All For One: “The Symbol of Revolution.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJOn6rsZ6Z
Apotheosis smiles as he thinks about all the plans he has for the future.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2ki8JYI3M
All For One: “The Symbol of Vengeance.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sxDae9Ejl
Azrael’s eyes glow with hatred for a society that made him what he is.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaV7XqwYKuK
All For One: “The Symbol of Terror.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Aj9VfnUtl
Tomura turns the glass into dust and shakes with anticipation. His quirk and neck itch with the desire to unleash his wrath.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuslshTX0y
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.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJHztPgvNu
Apotheosis: “Really? I have been curious about our mysterious benefactor.”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6twaxcWDug
The screen turns off for a moment; the next second, a new picture is revealed. One of a quirk beast with one large eye.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46lUO0aTz6

Something has changed.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSYOJVgmqw
The inner world of Izuku was different.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZWnLb2tpz
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJoxu4jfwb
Then there was the sky. It was a dull brown, nothing special. That’s if you ignore the two green suns.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrKgJlNUOL
One, the beating heart of infinity, and the other, the shape of a sleeping phoenix.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xcjc13Alz
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5Dr2b1rAT
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttnT0eKiNf
It was too much.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxATYGdqfE
It was too hot, and he was too thirsty to properly process this place. He needed help.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjWkfYjmuX
Izuku: “Phoenix! Where am I?! What is this place!?”
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7uvkwThRl
No answer except a cutting wind that kisses his cheeks. He could have sworn he heard a little girl laugh.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhoSPYmxSQ
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a5l7RNMkq
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXKDvX2D73
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEytx8NiYV
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJQ3Fidp22
Her voice, more so. It reverberated through the whole desert.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIpIy8zQvr

A/N: I made it!
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun2a5Px6sm
Thank you so much for reading. This right here is the season 1 finale, and like every anime, breaks must be taken between seasons.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgxfRtgoIU
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2yJWgJJxt
After that and more is done, I’ll return to this. I really like this story and don’t want to stop.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyrxQPldAa
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRH3UheTCU
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaCMqcp9I2
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.

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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kf3A4uIs0
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCsY2nzTA4
Well, that’s it. See you next time, and once again, thank you so much for reading.
