Izuku sat there in the living room drinking his cherry vanilla milkshake that his Uncle Shouta had him hooked on now. Toshinori sat down beside of him, fidgeting some. Izuku gave a him a weird look but didn't say anything. He wondered what he was doing though, he looked upset and troubled. It was getting to the point the boy couldn't even focus on his TV show.

"Are you alright? You're acting weirder than normal."

"Huh?"

All Might swallowed hard.

"I did want to talk to you. I just... I'm not sure if you're ready to talk...?"

"Which part?"

"Heatwave's quirklessness."

He stared at his mentor for a minute thinking.

"Go ahead. It sounds weird though."

"It's weird to most people but it's an undeniable truth that most people don't know about."

Izuku felt himself shiver.

This isn't good. The way he said it. It almost sounds like... sounds like someone worst than Stain.

"It's not psychological like the doctors thought?" he asked quietly.

"No and I knew once I heard about it."

"Oh."

"A long time ago, my own Master had went against this villain. I was still young, about sixteen almost seventeen. She had passed on One for All to me. Little did I know, that night she told me goodbye like everything was normal... ok... that she was going to die. She went against All for One and lost."

There it was. The person that Recovery Girl had mentioned too. The person he lost and that was more important to him than anyone else in the world... It was his Master. There were no tears in his eyes but Izuku could see the the hurt all over his face.

"I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault."

"I know but it seems like she's very important to you. Like a mom."

All Might grinned, "Oh yea. She was like my mom. She believed in me. I was quirkless but she found me to be suitable for One for All and I did my damnedest to be the hero that people needed."

"I find that so hard to believe... You're quirkless?"

"Yup."

"That's really cool!"

All Might laughed.

"Thanks... That's not a normal reaction."

"I'm really not normal."

"Neither one of us for that matter."

They sat in silence for about five minutes.

"The man that killed her... All for One... He can take away quirks."

Izuku stiffened up. He looked over at with a large amount of fear in his big green eyes.

"Wh-what?"

"It's been awhile but I've seen it happen before."

"You've seen him do it?" he whispered.

Izuku had never met the man and he was already so scared of this person. He didn't want to even hear more honestly and he would do just fine. The fact that his quirk could be taken away at any moment... how did the guy do it? How did... how does he do it?

"How... how does he do it?" he whispered so low Toshi almost didn't hear him.

"You... you wanna know how he does it?"

Izuku nodded quickly.

"Ho-hold on!"

He jumped up and ran to his room. He came stumbling out of his room with a notebook and a pen.

"Um, what are you doing?" All Might asked.

"Well, what you're trying to tell me is that I may face All for One?"

Toshinori swallowed hard.

"I had to face him once. It was a big stalemate. I almost lost an arm."

"Then tell me about him. What does- what did he look like then? What was some of the quirks he used?!"

Izuku fired off a million questions writing each one down and the answer. Over an hour later, Izuku stopped with the random questions before turning to Toshinori for the final question.

"What's wrong?"

"How does he take quirks away?"

All Might swallowed hard.

"This is just from seeing it happen so it's not from personal experience. I saw him do it... He tried to do it to my Master. I hid in the shadows, seeing it happen... What he didn't know at the time was that she had already passed on her power to me. His hand glows a bright blue color then bright white then a weird color like TV static on the screen as it sinks into their body. His body turns clearish almost like he's a ghost..."

Izuku scribbled everything down so fast his hand was a blur.

"I guess since he didn't really pull a quirk out of her, I didn't see the complete thing but when he pulled away, his body returned back to normal... but he um..."

Izuku put down his notebook.

"It's ok!"

He twisted around and hugged his hero.

"Sorry kid, it still hurts to think about it."

Izuku nodded, "I know."

Of course he knew. It would haunt All Might for the rest of his life.

Izuku walked into the laundry room a little earlier than he normally had. He had his notebook on All for One on his lap thinking. He had drawn out his picture just not using any color as he only shaded it in with his black pen using different pressures. All Might had said he looked so different when he saw him a again.

The first picture of him he was tall, kind of skinny. He had long hair at that time and piercing eyes. All Might had said Izuku was pretty close to getting his likeness, it was almost creepy like Izuku had been there himself. The second picture he looked so different.

He was bigger, bulkier. All for One had gained muscle at an amazing rate like he was bulked up on steroids. His hair was shorter, more neat like he was a business man. All Might had explained All for One was pretty old but he looked damn good for an old man. He didn't look any older than thirty but that was almost ten years ago now.

All Might's master had died at All for One's hands. All Might had to fight him himself but... with that and with him being the new successor... he would have to fight him too and that very thought was almost haunting. He couldn't even up against Stain because was frozen in fear.

I didn't know what I was jumping into. All Might probably didn't think he was around either. Until the other day...

Izuku let out a sigh.

"Oh, you're early."

The boy jumped seeing Shouto standing there with tea and donuts.

"Oh- um I..."

"Can I sit with you?"

"You aren't mad at me?" Izuku asked looking confused.

"Mad at you for what?"

"For... um... you know?"

"Beating our asses in front of half the school?"

He turned bright pink.

"I don't have a problem with it. We both deserved it. Katsuki may mope around about it but I'm fine with it."

Shouto handed him a cup and sat down beside of him.

"He said I was harsh and asked why I couldn't have knocked him out first... Is your dad an asshole?"

Shouto snorted into his cup.

I don't know if that means yes or no...

It took Shouto a few minutes to speak.

"He's a big asshole. Probably one of the biggest ones to ever exist."

"They say you pick out someone like your mom or dad," Izuku said jokingly.

He chuckled and grabbed a donut.

"They do say that."

The two boys sat in silence for a while until it was time to get ready for school.

Shouto had given him a slight warning that Bakugou may be a tad bit sour about what had happened but told him to just ignore it. How could he ignore someone who always had an angry fire in their eyes. It was like his eyes were always burning into his very soul whenever he looked at him.

At least he hasn't thrown me against the wall lately. It's only been a week though since the fight. I can't expect someone like him to be over it so easily.

Izuku turned a little to see Katsuki's red eyes burrowing into him. Izuku couldn't help why he felt the desire to give Katsuki a soft, cute grin but he did. Bakugou's eyes widened slightly and looked away blushing. Izuku smiled to himself.

Maybe things would be ok.

Izuku looked back at him to see the scowl on his face.

Maybe in a few weeks we'll be ok.
