So. I'm not sorry. Let's continue.
)=(
Toshinori felt his muscle form fail. He could feel the last embers of One For All flicker.
All For One smiled. "The world will fall to us. Enjoy watching your dream crumble." All For One's arm glowed with power as he raised it to deliver the finishing blow.
"I have been waiting so long to end you. My child's life has been destroyed by you. My family, torn to shreds by your image. I will enjoy your demise."
Toshinori pushed the last motes of his power into his right arm.
'I've only got one shot.'
"God Ender…"
"UNITED STATES OF SMASH!"
The two attacks cancelled each other out. Toshinori shrank. All For One smiled. "Weak… You're weak Toshinori Yagi. Just like Nana… Don't worry, you'll be seeing her very soon."
All For One raised his arm once again. "Goodbye All- grrrk!"
All For One felt pain shoot through his body. He looked down in disbelief to see tendrils of darkness protruding from his chest.
"Damn… I forgot… about… him…"
All For One's body was torn apart. The villain fell to the ground limply. Bakugo ran up to All Might. "We need to get you out of here before-"
"NOOOOOOOOO" Izukas scream shredded her bindings and blasted every hero to the ground. Best Jeanist was thrown out of the wasteland, he landed somewhere on the edges of Kamino.
The other heroes were floored-some knocked out- by the immense power of Izuka's raging emotions. She couldn't keep them contained.
Izuka ran to her fathers side. "Dad… DAD!"
All For One coughed. His grey eyes regarding her face with sadness. "I'm so sorry… *Cough* I won't make it…"
"No. No, dad. Just give me the revival quirk! Yeah yeah. I can bring you back!"
All For One coughed and shook his head. "There's no coming back from this… The truth is, I brought you back with a combination of quirks, you cannot possibly hold them all… *Cough* ... And they aren't compatible with you…"
Izuka wept as her father reached up to stroke her cheek.
"Izuka… I don't have much time left… but it's enough. Get out of here… pass this on to Tomura. It's the only quirk that I can give you in your ascended state… your birthright…"
Izuka felt the power transfer into her body. "Dad… no. Don't go…"
"I love you my daughter… and I always will… I believe in you and the league… *Cough*... now it's time to rest…"
All For One's new eyes went dull as life left his body. Izuka wailed. The heroes began recovering. Bakugo grabbed Toshinori and led him away. "Come on."
Gran Torino joined the two and helped them leave. The league began stirring to find themselves surrounded.
"No…" Tomura breathed.
Toga bowed her head as she saw Izuka. Tetsutetsu grit his teeth. Mirko cried with her master. The heroes began closing in on the villains.
Tetsutetsu went full berserker mode and kept the heroes at bay, but the villains were soon overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Kurogiri wasn't awake yet.
Izuka wept over the body of her father. She felt a hand on her shoulder.
It was Quickstep, the warping hero.
"Izuka Midoriya, you're coming with us."
The hero saw the body of All For One and called to his allies. "It's okay now! All Might did it!"
Izuka mumbled something inaudible. Quickstep turned back to her. "What was that?"
"I said… Nothing's okay…" Izuka shook. Her skin flickered white. Her normal dull glow changed and became black. She saw her friends being restrained, her family. "You heroes… you think that you can get away with anything…" Izuka's aura grew around her, a voice echoed in her mind.
[Assimilation of Quirk recognized. Quirk: All For One, has bonded to host, Izuka Midoriya. Ascension to demon-kin status requested. Request confirmed. Alterations pending…]
Izuka's hair furled out behind her and turned back to its original green color. Her single eye glowed and became slitted. Her ears shifted to become pointed. Izukas teeth remolded and became fang-like. Her canines became a bit longer.
[Second ascension to demon-kin status complete. Artificial creation of quirk: All For One, beginning. Process complete. Quirk duplicated.]
"You kill my father… you shun those that you don't understand. You hurt those that you despise, all in the name of justice… Justice weeps when you say her name…"
"You have no right to-"
"No." Izuka cut the hero off. "You have no right. Today will be a great day celebrating the hero's for their victory. Everything is going perfectly. You all get the attention you yearn for. Your peace holds. Everything is okay…"
"That's right."
"No. It's not. Nothing will be okay about this day, because you pissed me off. Nothing will be okay, you will all know fear…"
Izuka whipped around and grabbed Quickstep by the head. The hero screamed as she stole his quirk. He panted as the process ended. Izuka squeezed, causing the man to die as he was crushed. She tossed the body to the side.
The villainess turned to the number of heroes that were staring at her in horror and licked the blood off of her hand. Izuka disappeared and reappeared behind the heroes.
"Hope is dead…"
Izuka punched through the stomach of one hero-the snipping hero: Sever- and stole their quirk.
"Because I am here."
[Quirk: Quick Step, assimilation complete. Quirk: Scissor, assimilation complete]
Izuka tore through the legion of heroes. Blood hung on the air. The bodies of the fallen were no longer recognizable. Izuka's eye was dilated to the point of looking like a snake, She saw her friends being rapidly escorted into police cars.
Izuka roared and appeared above the cars. She used a telekinesis quirk to pull them into the sky. The cars and their drivers were crushed into a ball of metal and blood. Izuka pointed to Kurogiri and forcefully activated his quirk. The villains were warped to a safe point.
Izuka turned back to the wasteland and saw the face of Toshinori Yagi.
'You will not escape from me.'
Izuka rocketed forward. Bakugo suddenly found that while he was holding his teacher's arm, the rest of him wasn't attached.
Izuka held the pain ridded form of Toshinori Yagi in her hands. She had taken his right arm off, the arm he used to attack her father.
"I wanted to kill you for SO LONG! I wanted to make sure that you died QUICKLY! But now, I realize why my dad wanted to make you SUFFER!"
Izuka punched through Toshinori's back and severed his spine, shutting down his legs. "You will NEVER walk again. You will NEVER be a hero again. All you will be able to do is watch as I burn your success to the ground. Izuka grabbed Toshinori's head and pressed. The man screamed as his injuries were fully healed.
"But first I will break you again and again. Over and over until you are nothing but an empty shell!"
People watched in horror as Izuka ripped All Might apart painfully, before healing him and repeating the process. Heroes tried to aid the symbol of peace and get him out of the situation, but Izuka kept them away easily.
One hero by the name of Quicksilver, who's quirk allowed him to create and manipulate a silver aura, used his quirk to boost his strength and leap at Izuka.
The scarred girl backhanded him so hard that he exploded.
Izuka continued to torture Toshinori endlessly for five hours, until finally, she grew tired and threw the demolished man to the ground.
"You've made a mistake heroes. Soon, the world will fall."
Izuka teleported away, leaving a destroyed Toshinori Yagi, a mentally scarred Katsuki Bakugo, and a world filled with terror.
)=(
Izuka warped into the new base off the coast of Japan. She immediately walked up to Shigaraki.
"Tomura… He's gone…"
Tomura nodded silently.
"Here… he told me to give this to you…"
Izuka placed her hand on Tomura's head. The man shivered as All For One was passed on to him. Izuka then pushed all of the quirks she gathered into the man as well, who accepted them without pause. And finally, she passed on the copy of All For One. The man shuddered yet again and opened his eyes.
"Why give it all to me?"
"Because…" Izuka wrapped her arms around him. "It's what he promised you. And I will make sure that every promise he made is fulfilled."
Tomura noticed Izuka's voice shaking. He hugged her back. "Thank you… little sis."
Izuka smiled. "No problem… oniichan."
Izuka walked out of the room. The members of the league popped their heads out of a doorway. "Is she okay?"
Tomura shook his head. "That just… destroyed her…"
Toga sat down next to the man. "It obviously hurt you too. Do you want to talk about it?"
Tomura sniffed. "He was… a good man y'know? He had great ambitions, and the power to achieve them. He wanted to make an equal world… but those with power don't want equality…"
Toga rubbed Tomura's back. "It's okay."
"He wasn't just her father, or my sensei… he was our father…"
Toga hugged Tomura close. "And now, it's up to us to make sure that his dreams are achieved."
The blonde stood up. "I'm going to go talk to her now. Hopefully she's cooled down a bit."
Toga walked out of the room to look for Izuka.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" Tetsutetsu asked.
"Not for a while she won't…" Dabi sighed.
)=(
The police and heroes had planned on giving Bakugo a stern talk, but the state of Toshinori kept them from that. The combined efforts of Iryu and Chiyou were enough to heal him to a point, but even Iryu's power couldn't fix everything.
Toshinori could no longer walk. His right arm was missing. His once proud hair now hung down, shadowing his face.
Aizawa, Mic, and Nezu were busy comforting the students. While everybody was focused on the number one hero and the state of the students, there was one person the forgot about.
Midnight's eyes fluttered open. The first thing she noticed was that she was in a hospital bed. The second was that she had no clothes on.
"The hell?"
A doctor burst through the door. "You're awake!"
"What is the meaning of this?" Midnight shouted. "Where am I? Why am I naked?"
"Miss Kayama, calm down. You're in the hospital. The reason that you have no clothes is… we're trying to assess the total damage done to you. So far, there are no signs of disease. No signs of pregnancy."
Midnight sat up and attempted to stand. "What do you-ughhh."
Pain spiked through the hero's legs. Midnight looked down to see her skin bruised. "Wh-what?"
The doctor bowed his head. "I'm so sorry miss Kayama… but…"
"Don't say it. I already understand." Midnight sniffed. "Just… can you bring me some clothes? And then just… leave me alone…"
The doctor nodded and had a spare set of clothes brought in. He then left the room. Midnight curled up into a ball and wept. Her tears stained the sheets of the hospital bed as feelings of sheer worthlessness clouded her mind.
)=(
Toga walked through the doorway and into a darkened bedroom. The blonde hit the light switch, and the lights came on.
Toga saw nothing at first, but then in the corner, behind the headboard of the bed, a pile of blankets rustled.
"Izuka?"
"Too bright…"
Toga turned the lights off and walked into the room. In the corner, a single acidic green eye glowed. The pupil was cat like, and regarded Toga with intensity. The blonde could see the feelings raging behind the single green orb.
"Izuka?"
"Go away…"
Toga stepped forward. "Izuka… I won't leave you…"
"If you stay around me… I'll get attached… you'll die too…"
Toga sat down next to the bundle of blankets. "No. I won't, you know why? Because I will stay by you. I have full faith in you."
"He's gone Toga… He's gone…"
Toga wrapped her arms around Izuka. "I know babe."
Izuka sniffled and began weeping.
"I know."
)=(
Izuka woke up in her new room. To anybody else, it would seem to be pitch black. Izuka could see just fine.
'So… a second ascension…'
Izuka stepped in front of a mirror. Her eye glowed back at her.
'What the hell happened to my body?'
Izuka took off her clothes and stared at her reflection. Her body had been covered by scars, but now, more minor scars were gone. The hand scars on her arms remained, but cuts and scratches had disappeared.
Izukas hair was a bit longer, and had returned to its natural dark green color. Her ears were long and pointed.
'It's like I jumped out of a fairytale…'
The girl looked at her reflection a bit more, before returning to her bed and falling asleep.

Several Days Later
Bakugo walked into his new home. UA had constructed several large buildings for student and parental housing. The classes were all to live together.
Each building was roughly half the size of the main UA building. Each held an entire house for each family. All in all, they were huge.
Bakugo sat in the large common area down on the first floor. Him and his parents lived on the fifth floor. Several of his friends had arrived on the campus as well. Kaminari, Kirishima, Mina, Shoto, Ochaco, Jiro, and Tsuyu were all living in the building.
"So Bakugo… you were there… what happened?" Kaminari asked.
Bakugo tensed. His back cracked. Tears welled in his eyes as he recalled the face of Izuka.
'The face of sheer rage…'
"Sorry… I woke up after the whole thing." Kaminari scratched the back of his head. "I don't know what happened after I went all out. And I haven't been paying much attention to the news..."
Katsuki kept silent. Kaminari noticed he was shaking.
"If you don't want to talk about it… that's okay. It's obviously bad if it put you in this state. I'm sorry man." Kaminari patted Bakugo on the shoulder. "If you ever need to talk, you can come speak to me."
Meanwhile, in Uraraka's bedroom. Shoto was cuddled up to the gravity girl. Their housing units were next to each other. So the Uraraka got to meet all of the Todoroki's. Endeavor pulled his wife out of the hospital and swore to protect her and his children with his life. His status had gone up and he was now the number one hero. Rei was sceptical at first, but when she saw how Shoto was acting towards Endeavor, she decided to give him another chance.
The Todoroki's and the Uraraka's met for dinner every day. They would alternate which housing space they used. It was just a feeling thing.
The other kids had no trouble moving into dorms. Those who had been near Kamino were silent about the fight. All Might would never recover fully…
Bakugo knew that it was his time to step up. He would soon be put in the position to stop Izuka and the league.
Meanwhile, Toshinori had been outfitted with a prosthetic arm. He was completely broken from the fight, but decided that he still had to teach the next generation, so they wouldn't make the mistakes he made. The blonde made his way from place to place with a wheelchair. He didn't cough up blood, but his body shook from time to time. His legs were completely paralyzed. Even though he was in pain, he managed to keep a smile on his face.
Aizawa and Present Mic lived together in the 1-A housing units. Midnight lived there as well, although she had never left her quarters.
And so… school was back in session two weeks later. The students found themselves in their classrooms. Aizawa and Vlad adressed them, and they moved on to lessons.
"Now. First of your Art History classes… You will have a new teacher. Kamui Woods has offered to step in. Are there any questions?"
Several students raised their hands.
"What happened to Ms Midnight?"
Aizawa looked down. "Midnight is… taking some sick time. She was… injured during the battle and… well, she just needs some time."
The students nodded. Aizawa launched on to the schedule.
"This week, we're working on super moves. Each hero is known for using some special attacks. Take Endeavor for example. His flashfire fist attacks. They're used to change the tides of battle."
The students nodded as Aizawa explained super moves. Finally, an hour later, they were on the training ground.
Each student was given a separate place to develop moves. As they worked, Aizawa watched to see if there would be any more potential evolutions.
Ochaco had made progress with her evolved quirk. The gravity field she generated couldn't be turned off, but she could manipulate it at will. If she condensed it, she could bring the force of gravity up by five hundred times its normal strength. Of course, that was by making the gravity foot one foot wide. At that point, it was incredibly hard to control.
Ochaco called down to Aizawa. "I HAVE AN IDEA! BUT IT'S DANGEROUS!"
Aizawa called to cementoss. "Give everybody a wall."
Ochaco concentrated on the gravity field and made it split. She brought the fields up and centered them on her hands, before increasing the gravity and pulling.
A small hole opened in the air. Ochaco breathed slowly and moved her hands in a circle, before thrusting them forward. The black hole shot forward, blasting a hole in Ochaco's target before disappearing.
Aizawa smirked. "Good! That's the kind of creativity I want to see!"
Kaminari was busy experimenting with his quirk. Electrification's limit had been increased a hundredfold. Kaminari was trying to learn more about his energy form.
Imagine his surprise when he went to plug his phone in, and got sucked into the power outlet.
'Huh. well this is cool. I can feel the entire gym through the wires…'
Kaminari's absence was not unnoticed. Aizawa had seen him get sucked into the outlet. "Kaminari. Do you want to work on that?"
The building shook with Kaminri's approval.
'Huh. probably shouldn't do that…'
Todoroki was focusing on ways to combine his attacks. He learned that his armor could be a viable super move. His fire and ice explosions could also be a super move. His power had many options.
Kirishima was working on improving his stamina. He wanted to be able to hold muscular enhancement for an entire hour before getting tired. So he had Sato pair with him to stress his quirk.
All in all, the students were having a very productive day.
)=(
It had been days since All For One's death. The league had kept out of sight of the public. Izuka had only come out of her room at night, and even then, she wrapped herself in blankets so nobody saw her.
So came the night where Dabi decided to put on a movie. Izuka shuffled out of her room at eleven thirty. She wasn't expecting Dabi to be seated on a ouch, watching TV. A plate of cheese and crackers was on the table, with a note.
Izuka shuffled over to the table and read the note.
-You wanna talk a little bit?
Izuka turned around and looked at dabi. She picked up the plate of food and shuffled over to the couch.
"I was wondering if you were going to actually sit." Dabi smiled.
Izuka said nothing, she just brought a cracker to her mouth and bit down.
Dabi watched her with interest. "Is there a reason you won't show your face?"
Izuka froze, and then went back to eating.
Dabi sighed. "Well, I'll be up for a while. Feel free to hang out."
"Do we have any raw meats?" Izuka asked suddenly.
Dabi looked at her oddly. "Not right now. But I can always ask Oboro to pick some up."
Izuka nodded. "That would be great… thank's oniisan…"
The two sat in silence for a while. Eventually, Dabi felt a weight on his side. It was Izuka. She had fallen asleep. The blanket she was wrapped in had loosened, and the hood she fashioned out of it fell down, revealing her face.
'What the…'
Dabi stared at Izuka, before smiling and planting a kiss on her forehead. "Sleep well Izuka."
The next day, Izuka was in a corner. The windows were open, and she was trying to avoid them. "Sorry… the light hurts my eyes…"
She had re-wrapped herself in the blanket and covered her face up. She sat in the corner for a large part of the day. Not many people noticed her at first.
Then Kurogiri brought in some raw beef.
Izuka pretty much lunged for the meat as soon as Kurogiri walked through a warp gate. As soon as he was through, there was a gust of wind, and Izuka was gone.
"What was-"
"Don't." Dabi shook his head. "Just… don't, for now."
Toga found Izuka in her dark room, munching on bits of the raw beef, and looking at her computer screen, which had been dimmed down quite a bit. She let the girl be for the time being.
Izuka's ears twitched as she heard her door click shut. She finished off her treat and washed her hands, before going to her new closet.
In her closet was a small case that held her mothers old Nightgown. Izuka slipped it on and crawled into her bed.
It was the first time she cried herself to sleep in years.
)=(
Okay. There. Not a cliffhanger. You happy now? Also, I'm sorry about AFO. But his spirit will still be around. He'll show up with Inko.
So. There is a lot more planned, and so little time to write it. I'd better get to work.
Sushui Out!
