Due to having her bother and the number 1 hero in tow, Tastumaki wanted to take it relatively slow. A bit hard since she couldn’t wait to tell her the good news.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAiApw18jvpN
But things got complicated and weird when All Might, someone even Tatsumaki had to respect, exploded in puff a smoke…and turned into a human skeleton.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAHSah851lHB
Tatsumaki: “What the heck! Who are you?!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAPsLITMVTio
She says, almost losing her grip on him.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAEBVF6tvFUq
All Might: “I’m sorry you had to see me like this.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAkxBVAe3phr
Izuku: “All Might…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAzIwcjbl9fv
Tatsumaki: “Is this you quirk?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAWwXz9Rs7II
All Might: “No, I’ll explain to you when we’re not flying in the air. And when your sister comes, I’d like to only explain this one more time.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZhqMVmkRM
Tatsumaki: “One more…Izuku you knew?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAkIp3SyHVt5
Izuku nods and explains the parts of the story All Might concealed before.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAYrhJb1TCeX
Tatsumaki: “Fine, hold your breath. I want to hear everything.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANANTdRFM5E2K
Tatsumaki: ‘There’s always some complication. Why couldn’t the rest of the day be a simple celebration with my family. We haven’t had one…in a long time.’
651Please respect copyright.PENANA0m7bXdKu7f
Later
651Please respect copyright.PENANAWK2oItoSAi
Inko Midoriya was fretting as she wondered where her son was. She was pacing back and forth, trying to avoid hyperventilating. Her son was almost never this late, and every single time he was, he'd come home with one bruise or another.
651Please respect copyright.PENANA3GG4mwKsHg
It was enough to drive even a mother with a stronger constitution crazy. A rapid knock on the door almost had her jumping out of her skin. She raced to the door, and opened it to see a strange and happy sight.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAgIUWVpHNdu
Her eldest Tatsumaki and her son Izuku. She would have pulled them into a hug if it wasn’t for the skeleton human standing behind them.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAdUqLD6droG
Inko: “Tatsumaki, who is that behind you?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAjuGWlEep6R
Tatsumaki: “All Might.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAGR3qrWYYxG
Inko: “…Huh….?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA4ciWPOd1Gc
Tatsumaki: “No time mom, good news first.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAEZa8m1rDqX
Tatsumaki gently took her mother hand and led her into the house, all the while regaining her grin from before. All Might and Izuku followed after but Izuku was bit slower. He still couldn’t believe All Might was in his home. This along with getting a quirk was almost enough to make him faint.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAALBy59EEsa
It was a like he was dreaming again, but this one he prayed was real.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAlR07BeR7UK
Inko: “….All Might?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA5D2S0hdVjK
Tatsumaki: “Yes, but that’s not what’s important. Mom, I need you sit down. Don’t want you fainting on us.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAMKuNPkzFVh
Inko would have been worried if it wasn’t for Tatsumaki uncharacteristic smile.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAGLmeYf45y6
Inko: “What happened Tatsumaki?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAHUWQjWGqp9
Tatsumaki: “Mom…Izuku has a quirk.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA4dnqvV7hKo
Silence and shock.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAco4xFdKHS4
But that quickly turned into tears of joy and happiness. Faster than some speedsters, Inko hugged her son.
651Please respect copyright.PENANADy70MqgHwg
Inko: “Izzzzuuuukuuu!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAIvbVbOgXf8
Izuku: “Mom…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA00n3ZBa0jC
She balled her eyes out while her son held her and while crying himself.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAOWJDQPcYtN
All Might: “Its this normal?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANApc5LIJfGKD
Tatsumaki: “Yep, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAH23LABkODY
Inko: “I-I need to call Fubuki! She needs to know.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAH5dSAOfXp8
Inko reluctantly let her son go and rushed to the house phone.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAOs5FhQLld9
Izuku: “This…still feels like a dream. I… I was diagnosed! I have an extra joint on my toe! I'm Quirkless!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAV1IfmSSvQu
Tatsumaki: “Not anymore you’re not.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAXideBNdIfj
All Might: “Indeed, besides, I have extra joint on my toe as well.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANATTiTS8v8Zb
That got them to turn to him in surprise.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAk2CdFu2R1a
All Might: “Our circumstances are different, shonen, but the results are the same. I don't know why your Quirk lay dormant for so long. But it appeared! As for the toe…? Not a clue. I'm not a doctor."
651Please respect copyright.PENANABuahPNS4qa
Tatsumaki: “I think I’ll have some words for that doctor after this.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANApSdkljMw93
All Might sent a small prayer for that poor man.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAfOvXqQxLVZ
Izuku: “You don’t have to do that Tatsu, I’m…just so…I still can’t believe this is real…I can be a hero…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAHEgQCDoVe2
Before Izuku could start crying again, All Might put his hand on his shoulder.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAZr73b0Yp5S
All Might: "This is very real young man. You developed quite a splendid Quirk during that battle. In fact, if it weren't for the look of shock, joy, and wonder on your face as it happened, I would have assumed you had been lying to me about being Quirkless!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANADjMisDpggM
Izuku: “I would never!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA9vPB6axRsm
Toshinori let out a chuckle.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAGj5ULOlwSv
All Might: "Relax. You could never have faked that look on your face. I had… much the same look on mine the first time I used my Quirk."
651Please respect copyright.PENANA9SwOjoXI9T
At that moment, the door flung open and a beautiful woman burst into the living room. Fubuki was breathing heavily, like she flew here with all her strength and then some.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAsDwxq0mTj3
Izuku & All Might: ‘Fast…’
651Please respect copyright.PENANAcCqvCTIZFQ
She rushed to Izuku and grabbed his shoulder while her own were shaking.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAtlLJjhHx5l
Fubuki: “Is it true Izuku? Do you…really have a quirk now?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAoAyPjPZZNz
Izuku held back his tears and looked at his sister with a smile.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAe4jh0yzxMq
Izuku: “Yes, I can…be a hero. Just like you and Tastu.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAvszIJDYXfi
Fubuki hugged her precious brother and cried tears of joy. Her brother can finally live out his dream. While that was happening, Inko came back and smiled at the scene.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAZHJmgdKnjO
After a moment, Fubuki let go of Izuku and asked the most question.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAXOWFbTRGEn
Fubuki: “What’s your quirk Izu?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAODVyZUkWKF
Everyone but All Might stiffened at that question.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAaVrAWLsM6r
Tatsumaki: “I guess we forgot to ask.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAbeCO4hfuT9
Inko: “Hahaha.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAdIDt3tDa73
Fubuki: “You all were to caught up in your emotions.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAnaYhxOtdPW
Tatsumaki: “You can’t blame us.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAksI9yeupfW
Fubuki: “I’m not, I get it. But there’s something I need to know.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAr5voqcJ71V
She turns to All Might.
651Please respect copyright.PENANArkzLZB5VBk
Fubuki: “Who are you?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAsOuvMbtrFI
Inko: “All Might.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAdtlX9AQiG3
Fubuki: “….Huh?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAIYrBTuP75X
All Might: “Haha, now that the whole family is here I can explain my situation.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAOuwPBVY6kU
Everyone, except Inko who made some tea for everyone, found a sit and listened to All Might’s story. He first recapped what happened with Izuku for Fubuki and Inko.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ5nA73ngg
Izuku recklessness did get Inko to almost burst in tears again and for Fubuki to scold him. But knowing that his actions managed to inspire All Might of all people, calmed them down.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAqlZExfzBMY
No words can describe how proud they were of him. Then All Might filled them in on his condition.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAQPRNKfFNCj
Fubuki: “Whoa…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAipVxB7dQFl
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I expect nothing less from the number 1 hero.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAtFfu3inCx6
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANArbUWPT2FfL
Tatsumaki: “But now, I’m wondering why you’re telling us all of this. Why?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAnsbhQbkzmh
All Might: “That’s related to something I didn’t tell young Midoriya. But the short it is that I think he is worthy enough to inherit my strength."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAl6WQZ99P5B
Everyone: “….Huh?!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAxdJSzXUKs6
Yeah, that got Inko to finally faint.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAtuO7NhL7gf
Fubuki: “Mom?!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAd08NEp5PiB
Tatsumaki: “Explain, what do you mean?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAhY7q4droE1
All Might: “Your brother impressed me far more than I let on. To see a kid with no Quirk racing to certain doom to save someone from their doom…It made me feel like an utter hypocrite. Even after I scolded him and told him to pursue a more realistic dream…he was far more heroic than even me! Meddling where you're not needed… not able… or maybe even not wanted… is the essence of heroism!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAu7cSF6FhqZ
He then turned to Izuku and looked into his tear filled eyes.
All Might: “You bought that child enough time to breathe and gave me the kick in the pants I've needed for the past five years! A hero must always be ready to risk their life to save others! You can not only be a hero… you may one day even surpass me!"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAdpKIvW6gc1
Izuku: "All Might…"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAQkgsDC4Z2y
Izuku was all teary eyed and nearly sobbing in joy.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAx4nJ8w4dT8
All Might: "That is why… I wish to make you my successor! Izuku, Will you accept my power and become the next Symbol of Peace?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAQg6sXsbi42
Before Tatsumaki could catch up with the conversation and while Fubuki was fanning Inko unconscious body, Izuku shot up from his seat.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAl55rxErHLb
Izuku: "Of course! Given a mission by All Might himself… how could I say anything but yes?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAVOwEdBD4av
Tatsumaki: “Hold up!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAJD1P88YbW7
Izuku: “Tatsu?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAnlu0ETbpsU
Tatsumaki: “Too fast, way too much way too soon. Izu just got his quirk and you want to…what do you mean by take your power?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAXJxwIn3d6n
Izuku: “Of yeah, what do you mean All Might?
651Please respect copyright.PENANA2oq8QTHZBm
All Might: “Well, it’s related to my quirk. What about to say must not leave this family. Understood?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA0VcmLbvMCF
Despite his diminished appearance, they understood the seriousness of the situation. So they nodded and focused on the words he would speak next.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAw0apBcxszI
All Might: “You may have noticed, but every time someone asks me what my Quirk is, I always play it off or deflect by telling a joke. The tabloids heavily suspect its 'super strength' or a boosting Quirk. But it's neither of those things. My Quirk… is One For All."
651Please respect copyright.PENANA77wkIE0fEH
He held his hand out and a rainbow of colors seemed to envelop his palm. The two gasped at the sight.
651Please respect copyright.PENANA8ARuH9rVs0
All Might: "I always deflect the question because All Might must be a natural born hero… but One For All… is a Sacred Torch! My master passed it on to me! I was Quirkless…just like you, shonen!"
651Please respect copyright.PENANA6PCrBV3xS7
Izuku simply could not breathe. All Might… Quirkless? That… that was impossible,
651Please respect copyright.PENANABmQiLOsILn
All Might: "One For All is the ability to store and transfer power. The first person built it up and then passed it on, giving the second one greatly enhanced abilities and strength. They then cultivated it, grew it, and passed it on again. Each time, it grows to make the next wielder stronger than the last! And you, shonen! You are next! What say you?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANA8FTfsXM8Pc
Izuku: "I…is… is that even… fair?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANA2P33HnRFDh
Toshinori started in surprise, having expected his fanboy to immediately agree.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAR8DoQ7YIr8
Izuku: "Or right? If I… If I had still been Quirkless, I would have agreed immediately of course… but now…Would that be fair to others? And… how am I supposed to learn my own Quirk? It's completely different from One For All."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAqky2sW8VSi
Tatsumaki: “Ha, that’s my brother!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAAUT0UvHMSJ
All Might: “Hahaha, You're not exactly dissuading me, kid. That kind of selfless attitude… you're a perfect successor. Worry not, shonen! Your own Quirk awakening makes things easier on us. You see… even if you're a perfect successor in terms of your sense of justice… your limp-noodle body leaves much to be desired. One For All would rip you apart at the seams if you accepted it now."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAqyS6Wtpnbg
Izuku had a slightly terrified look on his face while Tatsumaki narrowed her eyes All Might for even suggesting such a thing.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAqyWTVkMEXO
All Might: "If you’re family would allow it, you would do hardcore physical training with me over the next ten months. That way, you’ll be ready in time to enroll at U.A. With your quirk awakening, we're not in as much of a hurry on that front. We can dedicate the first few months more towards your own Quirk and then start in on the physical training. So…what do you say, kid?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANA58xOmO8pAs
Izuku thought for a moment. First, he looked to Tatsumaki who gave him a smile of approval. Then he looked behind him to where his recovered mother and sister are. They gave a nod, knowing this is the first step to him achieving his dream.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAIaqMN5A3PP
Izuku: "I'll do it! All Might… I'll be your successor!"
All Might: "EXCELLENT! Let's begin first by determining… just what the hell your Quirk actually is!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA5rRmUzzbH0
Tatsumaki: “Oh yeah, we got sidetracked again.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAbyIc2jOepo
Everyone chuckled and took a moment to really let the situation sink in.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAblYI1n8I1a
Fubuki: “So, what is Izu’s quirk?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAPxgDScDKtn
All Might: "To be honest, I'm not sure. The only thing I can say for certain is that it is likely an Emitter type. Young Midoriya displayed three abilities… though really two of them may just be connected."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAKs8CkwoEt3
He raised his hand, one finger pointing up.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAspNNvM2YMQ
All Might: "You enveloped Katsuki Bakugo with a green aura like the one over your own body and easily pulled him out of the slime."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAsLdpkD6d2M
Inko: "Ah!"
651Please respect copyright.PENANA9FFRRYkdbY
Tatsumaki: “Yes! You have a quirk just like us! You even have my color.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANABKCLUK1Stb
Toshinori let another grin out, and continued with a second finger raised.
651Please respect copyright.PENANApMbqZvQmHm
All Might: "Two, you were able to project a force blast… similar to one of my punches. Weaker…much weaker…but similar."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAFxxkXrWRDH
Fubuki: “Not to surprising, both us can something similar.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAaBnjezDR74
Tatsumaki: “Don’t worry Izu, I’m sure your blasts will be able to change the weather too one day.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAbj0RXkmnGH
651Please respect copyright.PENANAAAgy9M2Jc9
Izuku was too blown away by the fact All Might do that. Toshinori meanwhile grinned and raised the last finger
651Please respect copyright.PENANAD36xKzFZEp
All Might: "And three…when you were injured, your wound was enveloped in a green flame and completely healed!"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAR2KIPABczP
Inko: "Injured!?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAl2oJeCsJKP
Inko shrieked, and started needling her son over protectively.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAq94mklPFwF
Inko: "Where were you hurt Izuku? Does it hurt? How many fingers am I holding up?"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAeuC3sQlCne
Tatsumaki and Fubuki sighed over their worry prone mother.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAOCJvEim1Zg
Tatsumaki: “His healing must be incredible, I didn’t see any wounds when I checked.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAJsm9jv819z
Fubuki: “It’s also so different from what any of us can do. You don’t think…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA0uE4NLExYU
Before Tatsumaki could start shaking the house from thinking about their very dead father, a whistle went off,
651Please respect copyright.PENANA0YbeI5kqjo
Inko: “Ahh, the tea!"
651Please respect copyright.PENANAEWNZm0xdhe
Inko hurried back into the kitchen and came back with a kettle and some cups. She poured them all some.
651Please respect copyright.PENANApwNHRNx3Cv
Inko: "I hope you enjoy, All Might."
651Please respect copyright.PENANATza7ukSVeQ
All Might: “Please, while I’m like this, call me Toshinori.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAEK5JK0Hoqz
Inko: “Oh, alright. Then please call me Inko.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAzBx0u4o4zk
Everyone took a sip before continuing.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAM2U2ItCk8L
All Might: "This looks like one of my favorites. Excellent taste, Inko. Now…I have an idea I would like to test."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAeNJeTDj039
He looked around for something small, and placed a simple salt shaker on the table in front of Izuku.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAdhEw7HuxqJ
All Might: "Lift this."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAKJPdo9uJj2
Izuku: "W-with my quirk? But this is too sudden? How do I even do that? I never had a quirk before."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAmLI5ZsicQU
Tatsumaki: “It’s a salt shaker Izu, we could lift something that small when were children. Even mom can do that.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAkI1u6agJpC
Fubuki: “You can do it Izuku. Don’t brute force it, focus and remember the sensation you felt when you first did it.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAjQcJitqA2V
All Might: “They are right, remember what would have happened to your friend had you not intervened. Pull that feeling out and embrace your future! Prove you deserve a place at U.A.!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAGHf5vkyrQN
With his sisters and hero cheering him on, how could he do anything but?
His eyes and body began glowing green, which mirrored on the salt shaker. And then it shot up like a rocket, straight through the roof, the floor above them, that roof, and into the stratosphere.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAT9wwN1QUU7
They all looked up at the hole in the ceiling. One deadpanned, one shaking, one sweating bullets, one smiling and one…shocked.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAmNkAixbIrP
Tatsumaki: “Awesome Izu!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAMjovMxSgrL
Inko: "That's going to be… expensive."
651Please respect copyright.PENANA1SSHcIHRbX
Izuku started sweating actual bullets while All Might looked down, staring at the boy with his face expressionless.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAGARVujhfAh
All Might: "Shonen… I said pick it up… not send it into low orbit." Despite his face, he was struggling to contain both his glee and his amusement.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAEWqEo2qqhd
All Might: "My apologies Inko-san. I'll pay for that."
651Please respect copyright.PENANAiOJ61RvAJg
He just barely held back a chuckle as Izuku started stammering out apologies and repeatedly bowing to him.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAJMDRRlh6JD
As for Fubuki…
651Please respect copyright.PENANAqLATsEioq9
Fubuki: ‘That much power…and he just got his quirk. Even now I couldn’t…’
651Please respect copyright.PENANARO8FFKejyh
Her thoughts drift to what she did Psykos. What she did to catch up to Tatsumaki. To meet expectations and stay ahead. But despite it all, she hasn’t even breached the top 15. Forever 16…
651Please respect copyright.PENANAryMoMCRfir
Fubuki: ‘And now Izuku will…surpass me…leave me behind…’
651Please respect copyright.PENANAg5gl2tiW3A
Before she can go any further into the dark, a finger snap brought her out of it. For now…
651Please respect copyright.PENANAbenEPNbiRr
Tatsumaki: “Were you listening?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAryuSmpO0tC
Fubuki: “Um, what? Sorry, I was still in shock.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAFDv8hkpjoW
Tatsumaki: “Ha, I get it. Our brother is going to be great.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA1twptmB6X9
Fubuki: “He sure is…”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAOlcSZvsm3F
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, it’s been decided that me, you and All-Might will take turns training Izu. We rotate every 3 days so we can train him well without neglecting hero work. Got it?”
651Please respect copyright.PENANApLmTZrlCao
Fubuki: “Yes. Who’s first.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANARgCFh5wswe
Tatsumaki: “All Might, me and then you.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANAuQ8o78orb1
Fubuki: ‘Last…why am I not surprised.’
651Please respect copyright.PENANA9fgQ75gs65
Fubuki: “Okay.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA4NIPFdJony
Tatsumaki: “Good, now we all had a very long day. I think we should get some rest. It’s been awhile since we all slept in the same house. But first, we celebrate!”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA9GGBu8PkD6
Fubuki: “Right.”
651Please respect copyright.PENANA0AWc2ToGPL
With that, the day slowed down. All Might left while the Midoriya family had a long overdue celebration. Everyone was full of smiles, for Izuku finally had a shot at becoming a hero. A great shot, considering his power.
651Please respect copyright.PENANAQ41KgcGwH2
But that road will be long and full of terrors. That’s the future however, for now, Izuku can rest easy and go to bed with smile.
