The heroes once known as students of Class 1-A watched as All for One - the symbol of evil - fell to the ground. After decade upon decade of failures, Izuku Midoriya and his fellow pillars of peace had finally defeated what the former's predecessors could not.

Izuku breathed a shaky sigh. "We finally did it." He muttered before falling back, the large gash in his side finally taking it's toll. The other rushed over as quickly as possible - save Bakugo, who let his fellow pros pass. Iida lifted the boy and set him up on some nearby debris. "Someone call an ambulence!" Todoroki demanded while Uraraka forced a smile for the green-haired boy, holding back her tears as best she could. "Everything will be alright, Deku. Just hang in there."

Izuku knew she was wrong. He felt himself grow weaker with each passing moment. "Phone..." He struggled to say. He didn't have time to wait for an ambulence. There was something he still needed to say.

"Please wait a little longer, Midoriya." Iida said, forcing himself to be calm though he panicked as much as his peers. "Whoever it is you want to call, they can wait."

No they can't. Izuku wanted to say but kept quiet when a phone hung in front of his face. He looked up to the holder - Katsuki Bakugo. "You know the number you need, right, Deku?" He asked.

Izuku nodded and took the phone from his childhood friend. With trembling fingers, he dialed the number. It rang twice before the other end picked up. "Young Bakugo! I saw everything. How's Young Midoriya?"

"Hey, All Might."

"Young Midoriya?!"

"We did it, All Might... We beat All for One..."

A pause. "Yeah. You did."

"Everyone else who had this power..." he continued, not caring who heard. "All of them can rest easy now."

"Yeah... They can... Thank you. I'm... proud of every last one of you. Especially you, Young Midoriya."

Izuku smiled. "Thank you, All Might. For everything. If it weren't for you..." His vision began to blur. Time was running out. "If it weren't for you... I never could've been a hero..."

"I'm not the one who made you a hero." All Might's voice sounded shaky. "That was all you."

Izuku strained to keep his eyes open. "I'm glad that... I was able... to make.. you... proud..."

His hand fell. All Might desprately called the boy's name through the receiver while those around the fallen hero either cried or held back their tears.

Deku's story had finally come to an end.

And he will always be remembered as the world's greatest hero.
