Chapter 44: not a bad response!

today was the day that for the work study to begin and as such it would Aizawa the homeroom teacher of Class 1-A to brief them all on how it would go for them.

"ok no if no one is going to interrupt me then this will be simple you all already know that unlike internships your work study will be much more intense with you all having less limitations on what you can and can't do, this means that you will be able to assist them in rescues and investigations. now obviously most of the school staff including myself were completely against allowing first years to go on work study however if we were to just keep sheltering you then how are we supposed to get the shining new heroes the future needs. so rather than canceling all together you will all instead be very VERY limited on who you are allowed to select, only those with a proven track record of successful work studies and absolutely no recorded accidents, got it?"


after class was over Izumi went to the teachers lounge with a smile on her face, when she entered she went straight to All Might.

"All Might, I was hoping that you could help me get in touch with your past sidekick sir Nighteye."

"oh, I see... no."

"yes! thank you! I... wait what?"

"no, I refuse to help with this, first off you and the rest of class 1-A have been through a lot but your still first years so you shouldn't have to do this in the first place, second your strike is good but you need to work on utilizing it more as well as your One for All: chop and One for All: shot, and finally... I really don't want to have to talk to the guy." All Might then emitted an aura of gloom which made showed how sad he was, strangely the sight was actually cute in Izumi's eyes and she even wanted to take a picture of him because of it.

"ahem! anyways my answer is final I will not be connecting you with Sir Nighteye... however I think I know a student that would be more than happy to get you two in touch. is name is Mirio Togata he's-"

"Togata! the senior student that has such a complex quirk yet still managed to become on the the top students of U.A. also known as the big three!"

"... um yes exactly." now you know what it's like Aizawa thought as he took a sip from his coffee from the other side of the room


now in a conference room Izumi and All Might waited for Togata to enter the room after the principal requested him through the intercom. what was surprising was how quickly he managed to get to the intercom room. Togata then obviously showed his excitement to finally meet All Might, Izumi could relate to his excitement and just smiled at him; however it wasn't long before Izumi started to noticed how Togata had blonde hair like All Might, a mostly positive personality like All Might, and almost never stopped smiling just like All Might. the fact that he was so similar to All Might should have filled her with jealously but instead filled her with admiration, he's so much better than me, I wonder why All Might never picked him as his successor.

"Izumi?" Izumi then snapped out of her deep train of thought and realized both Togata and All Might were looking at her.

"oh I'm sorry can you repeat that?"

"oh its ok! I said I can introduce you to Sir Nighteye!"

"really?!"

"Yeah I've been with his workstudy for about a year now, I know a lot about him so I think he will take a liking to you, although just to be sure I gotta ask. why do you want to be a hero? what's your drive?" Izumi was about to ponder this question but after her talk with Uraraka she was now able to answer this question with more confidence so she quickly sat up and put a proud smile on her face.

"because I want to be the next symbol of peace! I want to show the world that I can make everything safer today than it was yesterday! but above all I want to be able protect those that I love and care about the most, not only to keep them safe but to make sure they never cry again." both All Might and Togata were looking at Izumi with surprised looks on their faces but then after some time All Might chuckled a little and smiled at Izumi, your doing great kid, keep that up and you'll be the next symbol of peace in no time.

"haha! not a bad response! Sir Nighteye will love someone like you into his agency? you're still a little serious but I'm sure he will warm up to you eventually."

"oh thank goodness thats... wait eventually?"

"oh uh well you see Sir Nighteye has a great sense of humor but mainly he's always quite strict about... everything. although I think you might have a better presentation if All Might was the one to introduce you."

"Uh, that's not going to happen Young Togata, you see in the past me and Nighteye had some differences in opinion and well he ended up being right. if I were to face him now I don't know what would happened but it most certainly wouldn't be good, especially if all I do is just try to introduce Young Midoriya." All Might then rubbed the back of his head out of embarrassment while mainly trying to show off that it wasn't a big deal but both Izumi and Togata could see a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"hm, well I don't know the story but I get the situation. alright then, don't worry All Might Sir, I will ensure that Izumi knows everything she needs to in order to make a good impression with Sir Nighteye." Togata then laughed while All Might and Izumi smiled at how well everything worked out, heh, this kid is actually great I can see why Aizawa praised him so-

Miro Togata has a bigger smile and more competent training that that brat. you should have chosen him, not her. these are the words Aizawa told All Might during the first week school for this years Class 1-A. All Might then couldn't help but feel a wave of shame come over him, he then looked at Togata and Izumi, Izumi had out her hero reassert book vol. 14 and was asking Togata about all the ways he utilized his quirk while he answered all questions with immense speed and accuracy. hm, thier not too different from each other actually, maybe Nighteye would be willing to accept her... fingers crossed.


then on the weekend everyone was relaxing at the dorms with not much to do but study and keep searching for work study options. Bakugo and Todoroki on the other hand were heading to their Special Licensing course classes for the weekend.

"I'm glad you were given another chance despite your fight with Izumi the other night."

"ugh, shut the fuck up Scarface I really don't want to hear your voice in the morning... *sigh* but why the fuck would you be glad? I fucking hate your guts and you hate mine right?"

"well true I don't find your presence very pleasant however I believe that Izumi was right, everyone deserves a second chance and your living proof of that." Bakugo then looked at Todoroki with a mixture of confusion and disappointment but then started walking again.

"you trying to earn social point or something? why the hell are you trying to be my friend?"

"believe me I'm not that desperate, I'm just... trying to go by Izumi's example and be more helpful to my classmates."

"... is this that to becoming a better hero thing you guys always do? what's that even for anyways?"

"hm, yes it is actually but you don't need to worry about its origins, its just something we picked up during our internships."

"HI GUYS! BYE GUYS!" Izumi then just rushed past them with her usual 5% spark leaving a large smoke of dust in their faces.

"*cough, cough* RAH! IDIOT! SLOW DOWN! I CAN SEE YOUR PANTIES DUMBASS!" Izumi had already reached a distance far enough for her to not be able to hear Bakugo to which he grunted in anger. he then felt eyes burning into his back and saw Todoroki looking at him in shock while blushing.

"... oh what? wish you had a peek? hurry the fuck up pervert, we're gonna be late."

"wha- I uh- you- do- do you have any right to say that to me? you blatantly admitted that you saw Izumi's underwear!"

"yeah, and they were All Might style too, go figure, she's a total nut for the guy, I mean I used to be too but then I fell for Izumi and... well yeah."

"... are you not in love with Izumi anymore?"

"hm. nope, not anymore, the love I had for Izumi wasn't a two way street and it ended up not healthy for either of us so I decided to move on but unfortunately my mom, the fucking old hag, wasn't convinced I was all ok; so starting next week me and my family are going to meet a shrink for my anger issues. which is exactly what I fucking needed, *sigh* god damn it, just fuck everything."

"hm, great job on trying to improve yourself I'll be rooting for you and I'm sure Izumi and everyone else will be too."

"god damn it, shut the fuck up Scarface! and enough about Izumi! she's just an annoying childhood friend now, if you want to hit that then go right ahead, unless you prefer the shy bimbo. heh, you know for a supposed gentlemen with a tortured past you really seem to go for vulnerable girls with big boobs. kinda like your bastard of an Old Man." Bakugo continued walking but then realized that he didn't hear Todoroki's footsteps anymore, he then turned around and saw a deeply infuriated Todoroki glaring at him while emitting an aura of burning rage.


After meeting Togata outside of the campus, they went off to Sir Nighteye's agency, to pass the time Togata tried to tell Izumi some jokes but she ended up taking them all literally and got confused. Togata then got concerned and remembered that she enjoyed learning about quirks and then started telling her about Hado's and Amajiki's quirks to which she quickly pulled out her hero research book vol. 14 and quickly started filling out their sections and Togata answered her questions just as fast. before long they arrived at Sir Nighteye's agency building.

"ok now remember Sir Nighteye is a very strict and organized man, who takes his hero work very seriously but what annoys him more than anything is a hero who has no sense of humor. so if you wanna make a good impression on him, you need to find a way to make him laugh."

"really? that's kinda werid." that's exactly like King Kai from Dragon Ball Z Izumi thought as they entered Sir Nighteye's agency building. as they entered Izumi noticed how it looked a lot like a normal work building however despite being filled with busy employees running around it was actually quite empty.

"uh, does Sir Nighteye not have many sidekicks or employees in his agencies?"

"oh he's got people but he actually only has two sidekick's one being Centipeder and Bubble Girl. just like me the only reason they were accepted was because they made him laugh."

"... so everything really is riding on weather or not I can make him laugh?"

"uh, yeah pretty much." oh boy Midoriya took all of my hilarious jokes earlier way too seriously Togata thought I mean of course everyone knows toilet's can't talk but that's part of what makes the joke funny if she can't see that then how is she going to make Sir Nighteye laugh? just then they reached the office of Sir Nighteye himself Izumi was expecting Togata to knock on the door but instead he just barged right in. this only confused Izumi thought but what absolutely terrified her was when she saw Bubble Girl strapped to a tickle machine and Sir Nighteye was there glaring at her the entire time.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Izumi couldn't help but scream at the strange sight only to cover her mouth, however the damage was already done and Sir Nighteye was now glaring at her. oh crap she failed instantly! Togata was no longer smiling as he started to panic but not as much as Izumi was panicking she was trying but failing to look for a way to get out of this but then one of Sir Nighteye's posters and went silent.

"is that a 10th Anniversary All Might poster?" ack! don't change the subject like that! Togata was now panicking even more thinking that Sir Nighteye was going to get extremely mad about this but instead he turned off the tickling machine and straightened himself out.

"yes it is actually it was never released to the public so this is one of the very few that actually exist." Izumi's eyes then sparkled and she started looking around at all of Sir Nighteye's merchandise.

"Ah! and that's a golden age edition All Might figurine, thats the poster from the only Global olympic's he participated in... mainly because he was banned afterwards. *gasps* you have every All Might Bobblehead! United States edition, True hero of Japan Edition! Symbol of Peace Edition! and even the golden age edition!"

"this is the proudest part of my collections I will admit that, however I am ashamed to know that I have all but the limited addition golden coated All Might bobblehead." Izumi then raised her head suddenly as if an idea popped in her head, she then reached into her backpack and pulled out the golden coated All Might bobblehead.

"I got this purely by chance from the one of those stupid lottery games I always thought of it as a lucky charm which is why I always kept it with me, but now that I see your impressive collection I feel like I'm holding the key to a perfect puzzle so *sniff* I think its only fair that you have it." Izumi then offered the golden coated Bobble head while tearing up like she was giving up a part of her soul or a national treasure back to its rightful place. all while Togata was releasing Bubble Girl from the tickle machine and looking at them both in confsion, this is so weird Togata thought but at least she's getting on his good side.

"ugh... what are they doing?" Bubble Girl then collapsed and Togata caught her while her voice sounded weak and she was still crying from all the tickling and laughing.

"oh uh well you know how Sir Nighteye is a devoted All Might fan, well it turns out that this girl is too her name is Izumi Midoriya." they both then looked back to Izumi and Sir Nighteye, he was seemingly about to take the bobblehead from Izumi but then he made her hands cover the bobblehead and then pushed it back to her.

"I'm thankful for the offer but a true fan of All Might would never do something so selfish as to take a valued piece just to complete their own collection. so please keep it."

"*sniff, sniff* you are a true hero Sir Nighteye! Waaaah!" Izumi then started crying her signature waterfall tears and Sir Nighteye then patted her head softly to comfort her while Togata and Bubble Girl just looked at them in confusion.

"this is... new, is it weird that I'm kinda jealous of how easy she has it."

"I wouldn't say that, despite her mostly positive attitude she doesn't really have a great sense of humor."

"huh, well either way she's actually managed to get on Sir Nighteye's good side quite quickly you even you did that Miro."

"yeah... how about that." Togata then ended up smiling proudly at Izumi, because I want to be the next symbol of peace! that what she said and she's really owning it, now I can see why All Might wanted me to introduce her to Sir Nighteye.


"so you young lady want to be the next symbol of peace and in order to achieve that goal you want to join my agency?"

"yes sir! I heard that you were once All Might's sidekick so I think if I can learn to be a grand hero from anyone it would be you!" Izumi then stood tall but also made sure to smile brightly, obviously her smile wasn't literally shining but despite that Bubble Girl still covered her eyes as if Izumi's smile was blinding which confused Togata.

"...hm, quite a beautiful smile, strong figure, bright determination, and you look up to as well as aspire to be one of the greatest heroes of Japan and unarguable the world. very well I believe you are worthy of joining my agency."

"R- Really?! I-"

"However, you only passed the personality test, and to be frank the best way to pass my test is to make me laugh and you couldn't do that, don't get me wrong I think your a pure and loveable girl who can become quite the charismatic hero however it seems you'll have a long way to go, so for now to make up for it I will test you on other great aspects of the common hero which is to have the strength to save and protect the innocent. now I haven't read your file yet but from what I've seen on both the U.A. sports festival as well as the provisional licensing exam, your power allows you to not only change your physical appearance to a minimal degree but also allows you to unleash massive amounts of strength that you can only control on the smallest percentage, is that correct?"

"um actually there's more to it than that you see- ... um this is kind of a private matter so..." Sir Nighteye then nodded and told Togata and Bubble Girl to leave the room and as Togata left he gave Izumi a thumbs up.

"ahem, now uh... do you know what One for All is?" Sir Nighteye's eye's then widened as if he was told a secret that should never have been told, his eyes were quite calm when he realized that he and Izumi both had high praise for All Might but now his eyes turned cold and cruel.

"*sigh* one out of twenty."

"um excuse me?"

"I had predicted twenty possible outcomes that would happen today, each of those outcomes Miro would bring to my office a student wanting an internship now it was a fifty percent chance it would be you and the other half it would be someone else. obviously with this in mind I didn't care what outcome happened; however one of those predictions, the one I prayed wouldn't happen, was when that you would tell me All Might had chosen you as his official successor. Izumi Midoriya, you are an outstanding student and a worthy hero, even if your power was borrowed from All Might you are smart and with the right guidance and training you can be strong and charismatic too. but if I'm being honesty, you are completely unworthy of this power." Izumi tried her best to fight the sadness growing inside her but she lost the battle and she turned to her dark form.

"you've probably heard this many times but I think you know why, because its true, even if you want to deny it. you may have a pure heart and strong mind but you lack the charisma that the future needs, that everyone needs. Miro Togata on the other hand, he is a worthy candidate and has been stated many times by the U.A. staff themselves that he is the most likely to be the next symbol of peace. just by looking at him you can tell its true, but the same can't be said for you. I like your devotion to All Might and how its almost on par with mine but that's not enough for me to trust you, so no, I won't be accept you into my agency for work study because I don't trust you with the future." Izumi was about to cry because she believed that everything that Sir Nighteye was true that she really wasn't worthy of One for All. she then wondered why All Might chose her in the first place but by thinking of All Might her mind instantly remembered all the times All Might told her to stop doubting herself and to just keep trying to become the next symbol of peace the best she could. she then reverted back to her normal form and stood proud in front of Sir Nighteye with a look of determination, this actually surprised him but he only raised an eyebrow to show it.

"I was given this quirk by All Might himself and maybe your right, maybe he did make a mistake. but as a devoted fan to his work I just can't let that be true, I refuse to tarnish All Might's reputation by being a failure of his, he is one of the reasons I aspire to be a great hero after all. so I will continue to work hard to become the next symbol of peace that he entrusted me to become as to honor his grand Legacy of One for All. I'm sorry Sir Nighteye but frankly I trust All Might's words more than yours." Sir Nighteye continued to stare at Izumi with such a cold gaze which scared Izumi but she hid her fear deep in her heart and stood her ground and continued to stare down Sir Nighteye in determination. Sir Nighteye then stood up and and picked up a stamp.

"believe me I just want what's good for the future by training those who can uphold All Might's idea of a Symbol of Peace for all to look up to. as such the last thing I would ever want is to tarnish All Might's reputation, but I can predict several scenarios where that exact thing will happen if you continue to have One for All. first Japan then the rest of the world will be lead down turmoil." Izumi couldn't help but tremble in fear when she heard this, the thought of the world falling into chaos because of her incompetence was the most terrifying thing she could imagine but then she shook her head, slapped her cheeks, and once again looked at Sir Nighteye with unyielding determination.

"out of how many? you said that you predicted several scenarios where I fail but surely that's not all you see, surely you see others where I DO succeed. so how many do I succeed?"

"... I guarantee you that the most positive scenarios for the future are with Togata having One for All." wha?! this jerk! he's dodging the question! Izumi thought in annoyance as she couldn't help but grunt in anger.

"hm, your quite stubborn or I guess the word you would prefer is determined, regardless you are proving to be quite interesting, so I will go ahead and start the physical test. if you can get this stamp out of my hand then I will approve of your work study, however if you fail you then have to give One for All to Miro."

"hm, fine I think that's fair, All Might does always complain that I tend to have a habit of doubting my worthiness of One for All. thought like you said its justified, however speaking of All Might what do I do if he disapproves of this?"

"hiding behind All Might are we?" Izumi managed to keep up her image in front of Sir Nighteye but his words were basically swords that were stabbing her heart and shredding it to pieces, she even spat imaginary blood.

"ahem! I'm just asking, after all All Might told me that you two had quite a disagreement, he obviously didn't go into details but what if this turns out to be one of those disagreements, what will you do then?"

"you let me worry about that. now then its about time you get ready, you'll have five minutes to get this stamp out of my hand if you want to keep One for All. begin." Izumi then turned on One for All: Spark at 5% but as she got into her fighting stance she put a lot of stress into her body by trying to go up to 10% again. agh! come on! work damn it! she screaming in her mind with pain, I have this weird overpowered healing quirk from one of the past One for All hosts so why can't I just go back to 10%! I used to do it so easily and that was when I was puking my guts out! I didn't even feel any-... oh, it was because I had become mostly numb to pain to the point that only One for All's recoil and Bakugo's punches were the only things that hurt me. so that's why I can't access 10% of spark anymore I really was going to fast. well that's too bad now because I need to go as fast as possible right now. hopefully this healing quirk will help me deal with the recoil better. so sorry my body, but your just going to have to work through it with me, now let's go 10%!

Izumi couldn't help but grunt in pain but sure enough it ended up working, Izumi finally managed to raise her Spark back to 10% without the help of dark form, she couldn't help but feel a slight burning sensation on her skin. a side effect of using One for All: Spark was that green lightning would spark around Izumi's body, hence why she named it Spark however it was always seemingly just a visual effect of Spark. however how the green lighting flowing around her was seemingly striking her skin and burning her so slowly that it wasn't visible but she could defiantly feel it.

"that took you far too long to activate your power, are you sure you truly have bonded with One for All?" Hmph! just be patient you jerk! Izumi then dashed all around Sir Nighteye's office in order to confuse him on where she would pop up next she then zoomed past him to catch the stamp. but a second before she could grab it he tossed it into the air. she then turned around and dashed forward for it while it was mid air but Sir Nighteye quickly managed to catch it and again get it out of her reach. she then continued this for quite sometime but each time she reached for the stamp while using Spark Sir Nighteye always managed to dodge in time.

"your extremely fast but you don't seem to be able to slow yourself down once you have already sped up and above all your dashing around despite its complex zig zags is in true nature quite sloppy and predictable." Izumi then appeared right in front of Sir Night eye and activated One for All: Strike into her arms to increase her speed when grabbing the stamp but without her arm braces, and the fact that she was already using 10% of spark, she felt the direct recoil of of Strike causing her movement to stagger and slowdown allowing Sir Nighteye to once again dodge her attacks and get the stamp away from her.

"that move would have most certainly have allowed you to catch the stamp if the recoil had not gotten in the way." Izumi then remembered that her hero costume was in her case as well as her arm braces and boots. she looked back to the door where her case was next too. as she looked at it she saw that Sir Nighteye was looking at it as well and she then looked at him in confusion.

"... go ahead its not gonna make a difference." Izumi then dashed over, opened the case, and put on her arm braces and boots as well as her costume, she then allowed herself to go dark mode as to go all out.

"hm, so that's the infamous dark form, which apparently increases your control over One for All and therefore your strength but at the cost of your beautiful face, most would consider it a small price to pay but for a hero, it could cost them their reputation, quite the price if you ask me."

"hm, All Might said something similar that's why I only use this form unless I absolutely have to." Izumi then pounded her fists together and smiled despite still being in her dark form she then activated Spark again and dashed around. this time Sir Nighteye could see that she had more control over her movement and her zig zags were much more coordinated. she then activated Strike this time in both her arms and legs and then got the jump on Sir Nighteye and tried to grab the stamp. however Sir Nighteye then slapped Izumi across the face that made her slid back and hit his bookshelf. Sir Nighteye then put the Stamp in this breast pocket and then got into a fighting stance.

"I suppose a certain apology is in order I did underestimate you to an extent but you still have a ways to go before you can truly be called a hero, especially since you've waisted quite some time." Izumi then looked to the clock in confusion and sure enough three minutes have past and she now only had five, she was about to panic but she instead calmed down and managed to maintain her dark form. she then dashed up to Sir Nighteye she then aimed one hand for the stamp while the other to punch Sir Nighteye. Sir Nighteye managed to dodge flawlessly and then grabbed both of Izumi's arms and was now had them locked while stretching them out. Izumi couldn't help but grunt in pain.

"that was smart but mainly unbalanced it seems your instructor Aizawa had a point you tend to treat your body as more of a tool rather than an actually body." Izumi glared at Sir Nighteye in anger when he mentioned Aizawa and she then quickly activated Strike in her legs and kicked Sir Nighteye in the stomach. he let her got after this and she landed safely along the bookshelf. Sir Nighteye on the other hand staggered a little but still stood tall though it was quite obvious that he was in slight pain, but he didn't show it very much.

"*grunts* ahem! a true hero despite their own shortcomings must never show weakness even when a villain exploits it, when we show our pain to others that's when we have failed as heroes and that is something the Symbol of Peace should never do. yet you made it quite visible how in pain you've been with the recoil of One for All as well as my attacks, do you want to be saved? if that's the case then stop playing hero."

"grrr... ahem, thank you for your concern Sir Nighteye but if I were to follow your advice then that would make me a hypocrite because I live by All Might's words a true hero always risks themselves to save others!" ... of all the phrases she could have lived by it had to be the one that inspired recklessness, well now her behavior makes more sense. Just then Izumi dashed forward to try to get the stamp again only this time she grabbed some of the papers and threw them at Sir Nighteye hoping it would distract him somewhat while still zig zagging around to catch him off-guard and get the stamp. however her jumping off and on the bookshelf caused it to shake around and one of the All Might action figures fell down. this caught both Izumi and Sir Nighteye off guard, Izumi then zoomed past Sir Nighteye and caught the action figure just in time before it hit the ground. she then carefully placed it back where it was, she then faced Sir Nighteye and smiled, she then showed that she had the stamp.

"ah... hm, I see I was distracted that I didn't use my foresight to prevent you from garbing the stamp." Izumi then smiled proudly and then stamped the paper on Sir Night's desk. or at least that would have happened but the work study acceptance paper was no longer on his desk and Izumi ended up just stamping on the desk, she then looked at the empty desk in shock and then looked to Sir Nighteye, who pulled out the acceptance paper.

"I never said you were restricted in anyway to get the stamp, so I won't hold it against you for leaving shoe markings all over my walls or throwing my papers everywhere, but you also never requested restrictions for me so don't hold it against me that I held onto the paper because I saw a scenario where you actually managed to get the stamp." Izumi's shock was then turned to anger which she used to fuel her dark form and activated Spark at 15% but Sir Nighteye held his hand to her to tell her to stop.

"I'm afraid your already out of time." Sir Nighteye then pointed to the clock and sure enough all five minutes had passed. Izumi's world view then went silent as she just walked toward the seat in front of Sir Nighteye's desk and just sat down suddenly like her brain was practically shutting down. she was upset that she didn't get the Work study but what really fueled her depression was the agreement she made with Sir Nighteye.

"now then you understand what I asked of you right?"

"... yes, I will talk with Togata Senpai to receive One for All."

"thank you Midoriya, please understand that I truely have nothing against you, its just that anyone even you know that Miro would have been a better choice for One for All. I suspect the reason All Might chose you was because he had not meet Miro just yet.

"... can I please just talk to All Might before I do."

"*sigh* very well, but I hope you wont be a coward and try to use him to justify yourself being holder of One for All."

"don't worry I would never do something so disgracefully to the hero I admire." hm, she's quite an understanding girl, Aizawa wrote her off as a brat that enjoys arguing with those in authority but she doesn't seem to be giving off such an impression at all. even thought she's about to lose her only chance of being a hero, she's willing to honor her own defeat, she's clearly showing disappointment but won't protest or even complain about her loss. Sir Nighteye then looked around all the shoe marks on the ceiling and walls but then noticed how there were no markings or damage on the All Might merchandise. not even the poster was damaged or even marked in fact any shoe marking weren't even close to the poster.

"you, you avoided even leaving the slightest blemish on my collection. I assumed your attack pattern was lacking was simply because you were sloppy."

"well you weren't wrong about that but yes I didn't want to ruin your collection." ... impressive, she was determined to achive her goal but never lost sight of her ideals or admirations of All Might, she knew it would only give her more struggle but she still went through with it and bared with the struggle. at this point Sir Nighteve couldn't help but be greatly impressed by Izumi but he still thought Togata deserved One for All more than she did, but then again, isn't it foolish of me to just assume that All Might didn't pick her for a reason.

"... *sigh* you better not make me regret this." Sir Nighteye then stamped the paper to approve Izumi into his work study, to which Izumi reverted back to her normal form and looked at the paper in shock but was also slightly.

"wha! but why?! I mean, I'm glad but why?"

"because you keep surprising me and proving All Might right about choosing you as his successor. the more I get to know you Midoriya the more I see how much you persist to better yourself into becoming the ideal hero, granted you still got ways to go but what makes up for it is how you recognize your flaws and rather than hiding them to expose and work to better them. that is not something everyone has the will or the pride to even do. in short your not perfect as the symbol of peace, but you understand that your not perfect and you try to better yourself because of it without denying that your flawed. so in other words I approve of you as a possible candidate for the future Symbol of peace." Izumi's eyes then sparkled in joy she then raised her fists in the air and was about to yell in triumph but then Sir Nighteye then raised his hand to her to signal her to be quite.

"however I insist you still let both Miro and All Might know about our agreement about One for All." Izumi then lowered her arms reluctantly and then nodded, just then Togata then slammed the door open.

"hey the test should be just about over! how did you do Izumi!"

"I've told him so many times to not slam the door open, ahem! she passed Miro, she didn't make me laugh like you or the others did but she managed to still impress me so I am willing to give her a chance." Togata then smiled in joy and started praising Izumi and she smiled but in her mind she had conflicting thoughts of how to tell All Might the deal she made with Sir Nighteye and what might happen when Togata finds out about One for All.

Hello everyone, I know that I should have posted at least two chapter by now but unfortunantly I lost my all my progress on Chapter 45 because of that stupid Error 503 that came out of nowhere the other night. but still it was also kinda my fault because I did so much work without consistently saving it like I normally do. So yeah sorry everyone but I failed all of you... AGAIN! I'm really sorry, I try to have at minimum three chapters by the end of February and MAYBE have one of them posted in the middle of the month.
