Spoilers 362.

I know that they're not going to keep Bakugou dead because you can't kill the most popular character. But until August 19, I need to let my feelings out.

Deku couldn't breathe. He couldn't even think. He saw Shigaraki/AFO laughing like a maniac, but he didn't hear him. He only saw HIM.

His Brother.

His Platonic Soulmate.

His Symbol of Victory.

His Hero.

KACCHAN…

Dead.

Lifeless.

Blood surrounding the hole in his chest and his mouth.

Dull red eyes looking up at the sky.

His All Might card was lying next to him.

"Kacchan…" Deku whimpered. He walked unsteadily towards his best friend and held his hand. It was SO cold.

Kacchan was NEVER cold.

Deku felt destroyed. He never felt hurt like this, even in Middle School.

"What's the matter, Deku? Did I strike a nerve?"

Deku didn't dignify the villain with a response. "You should be here Kacchan. Not me. You were right-I should've never have become a hero. If I hadn't, you never would've been killed."

Suddenly a thought occurred to him.

"Yoichi, your Quirk. Can it also transfer life?"

Midoriya, what are you saying?

One was cautious.

"Your Quirk. I know it can transfer Quirks…can it also transfer life?"

I…guess it can. It's kind of happened before.

Why?

"Because Kacchan deserves it. He deserves to be Number One. My quirk was given to me. He's already had his. He's worked so hard, and I'm not going to let all of his efforts end here. I'm going to get my blood into him, then transfer One For All. Take care of him, okay? And tell him that what happened was not his fault."

…"You're a brave kid, Izuku. I guess I'm going to meet you in a few minutes for real. So you can tell him yourself."

"Oh, yeah. Heh. He's gonna be sooo pissed."

Deku ignored All For One's yells as he put everything he had into Kacchan. He smiled as he saw life returning to Kacchans' eyes…eyes that were filling with horror. Then total darkness.

"And that's how I became the world's greatest hero. By giving my quirk and life to Kacchan, the world's now Number One Hero."

Nana smiled sadly at the boy that remained forever 17. Izuku never had an ounce of regret on his face as he told his life story. He was proud of his brother in all but blood.

"Lame." Both of them turned to see a 25-year-old Kacchan in his Hero Suit, looking at Deku with a mix of sadness, exasperation, and fondness.

"Kacchan!" Deku ran from his seat into his brothers' arms, wrapping his arms around his neck tightly. Kacchan held him back, "Nerd."

"…Thank you."

Boy I feel like crying again.
