Angel: What other impact will affect Izuka in season 6? She does go through several changes, like I said she goes through something. Specifically in the first half of the season. Other changes though are more so emotional, not entirely physically and definitely not spiritually. As for her burdens, I mean...something like that does get addressed much later, but not like Ruby's situation, which I don't even know anything about. I'm not going to be too specific just yet.

But the other review still confuses me, because previously, desiree said 'relinquish the few to the very people she and her brother recently met that she feels are worth fighting for'. If for example Melissa is Quirkless, and seems to be fine without a Quirk, I don't think she'd really want one given to her. Even if they could get the stolen Quirks back, which once again, they can't, I don't think she's the first person to come to mind. If she's fine being an inventor for support items, let her focus on that instead of having a Quirk. Doesn't feel like she'd consent to it anyway if she wants to help through her creations, not by having a Quirk. Also, like I said, you can't take All for One's Quirks back even if he made it possible to do so, which he wouldn't. Probably the same thing with the duplicate with Nine, who is dead btw. So the Quirks died with him. Same thing with All for One by the end of the manga, spoiler. And Galaxy isn't capable of transferring Quirks either last time I checked.

If that would be like a good equivalent to All for One in giving back a Quirk by having Izuka do it...still no...? It's kind of like giving Overhaul back his arms in that this is a relevant plot point that can't be reversed. I don't want people to suffer if they lost their Quirk, obviously, but if everything is suddenly made better by giving back all those Quirks, I don't think that's what the story is going for. You lose all the struggling and suffering from other people emphasized by All for One's actions doing that, which is part of his character. He sucks as a person, but he is used to getting what he wants at the same time. He'll do anything he wants as long as he succeeds, you can't just...make all his victims not suffer anymore in the blink of an eye. Yeah, I understand it's bleak, but it is part of the tone too. That'd be like saying all the heroes who died or quit in season 6 just...suddenly come back to life or they go back to being heroes again. You lose the grim atmosphere, you know?

Meanwhile, the plane had landed roughly in the forest. Rody emerged a few seconds later, with Pino flying in front of him. "I won't just stay behind," He growled out while moving forward. "I wanna help!" Someone stepped on a branch and he gasped sharply, growling at the sight waiting for him. Several Humarise members had already caught up to him.

"You're Rody Soul, aren't you?"

Back at their headquarters, several members were already passed out or injured. A trail of small flames followed them. A turret appeared to fire at Shoto and Izuku. The red/white haired boy flinched and then ascended using his ice. However, the lasers broke the ice with ease, causing the two boys to fall to the ground. Izuku let out a surprised yelp as he tumbled to the ground, ice falling to the floor. A stream of flames destroyed the lasers, having come from Shoto's fingers.

"Todoroki!" He called out for his friend.

"You go on ahead. Fast as you can!" Shoto urged as Humarise members were already on their way to stop them. Izuku nodded silently and powered up, turning around and taking off. Shoto's right hand then gained frost, spreading out to his entire arm. "I'll stop you all at once!" He declared while swinging back his arms. The members opened fire on him. "Flashfreeze...Heatwave!" His arms were surrounded by flames before ice went in front of him. The fire then exploded and when the ice cooled off, there was a huge explosion. The Humarise members couldn't do anything to stop themselves flying away from the burning flames. Smoke then covered a huge area, leaving Shoto a bit breathless. Frost emanated from his back and he turned around to go find Izuku. Before he could get any further, he heard a low growl, looking over his shoulder. A huge shadow was in the distance, revealing itself to be from a huge monster. He charged forward and Shoto's arms caught on fire. He then used a fiery attack on the monster, but it had no effect on him. He growled while lunging forward, recoiling back his fist. Shoto was left there in shock, but managed to jump backwards to avoid the attack. The strong punch managed to emit a lot of smoke.

My flames had no effect? Shoto thought while skating around, sending out a stream of ice at the wall. The monster then emerged out of it with ease, not unlike Chimera during the attack on Nabu Island. Shoto gritted his teeth, knowing that it was going to take a lot more to stop his opponent. He's raging out of control. Is he on Trigger? He wouldn't be surprised if the monster was. His opponent then summoned a huge array of red drilled fingers, shooting them out at Shoto. He flipped to land on another piece of ice, using it to take to the sky. He managed to maneuver around the attack, until one of them hit the ice he was standing on. He yelped in alarm as he fell to the ground, looking up with a gasp as the monster was headed straight for him. He grabbed Shoto by the waist, both of them falling towards the floor. The two managed to break through the ground, causing pieces of debris to fall as they ended up in another room...

Luckily, Shoto managed to not fall into the deadly waters below. Before he could move, a cyclone attack headed for him. The boy grunted while being caught up in it, and then was sent straight into the water. He was surrounded by the effects of the cyclone, struggling to breathe. The monster growled while keeping a grip on the boy's neck.

Somehow, he's rotating his Quirk to control the flow of water! He thought while clawing at the restraint around his neck. The monster, Leviathan, let out a growl while advancing towards Shoto.

Izuku jumped up and swung his leg around. Smash! His wind-pressure kick attack was enough to send several members flying to the ground. He ran past them to continue towards his destination, hoping that Shoto, Katsuki, and Izuka were okay...


Speaking of which, Katsuki jumped and grabbed the girl, landing someplace a good distance away from the villains. He had a cut over his right eye as he put her down firmly. "You're in the way!" He told her while looking over his shoulder.

"Why are you making this difficult for me? I'm not gonna just leave!" Izuka narrowed her eyes up at him.

He gritted his teeth while jumping before their opponents could attack her. I can't let her get hurt by these bastards...not now...not ever He thought while firing his AP Shots at the sharp and quick knives up ahead. He let out a painful grunt while firing a big explosion. One of the twins laughed gleefully while swinging his knives to split the attack into pieces, and then it exploded. Izuka yelped while bracing herself, her hair flying. The crap?! How'd they cut through my explosion? He thought while landing and they surrounded him. "ARE YOU LISTENING?! GET OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW!" Katsuki shouted towards the girl, who was sitting nearby and wouldn't move. He prepared himself for another attack, gritting his teeth. He still had blood falling from his body as he looked around. One of them used his long tongue to lick at his lips, giving a big toothy scary smile. Katsuki flinched and then reached for something.

"You must not have realized you're facing the best!" He declared while using a mini grenade and then sending himself up into the sky. One of the Serpenters managed to catch up to him with ease and he fired an explosion in his face. Point-blank range!

Izuka looked up in disbelief at how fast the villains were, seeing one run on the side of a cliff. He spun his knife-like arms around and then stopped as a shooting star flew between him and Katsuki. Both of them looked down to see Izuka had fired with her bow.

"I can take one, let me do this!" She turned to Katsuki; she already knew that if he continued fighting them on his own...he wasn't going to get out of it unscathed. And she didn't want that to happen, or watch it.

"Screw that!" He yelled, grunting as he got hit in the stomach by the other one.

"KATSUKI!" She cried out, the one who attacked him pulling away his knives with a laugh. Blood flew from his body as Izuka gritted her teeth angrily, and Katsuki was pissed as well. Before he could do anything, Izuka jumped up to catch him by the waist, putting him over her shoulder. She soared a good distance before landing, looking over her shoulder briefly. She then put him down gently and saw his injuries bleeding. "Katsuki...!" She blinked back tears, hugging him close while looking at the Serpenters grinning towards her. "This is because of me...I should've protected you..."

"This is nothing," He declared, causing her to flinch as he hid his face in her shoulder. "All that pain meant for you...I'll take every last part of it. So you don't have to feel what I do right now. Yeah, it feels like shit. But if anyone hurts you while I'm around, it...it means I'm not strong enough. So stop gawking at me...and focus on saving the world and yourself..." He breathed out while holding his stomach.

Izuka slowly teared up again that he was willing to go through all of this just to make sure she wouldn't experience it for herself. Because if she hadn't stayed, then she definitely would've gone through it... However, she didn't want this for him, especially with him making that decision for her. If she had to chose between the world and Katsuki...she'd pick him. Because he was her world.

"You're...part of the world too, though. So that means...I'm saving you," She declared as she got onto her feet, watching the Serpenters laughing.

"No, what the hell are you doing?!" He gritted his teeth up at the girl, managing to slowly get onto his feet.

"I'm stepping in, Katsuki. I can't keep letting you fight for me," Izuka narrowed her eyes as some knives were flying right to them. She spun around to use Saturn Ring to make the knives hit the projectile and shoot up into the sky. One of the twins blinked as the knives fell to the ground and she landed safely in front of Katsuki.

"No way!" He growled out to her, pushing her away. "I don't wanna have to owe-"

"You don't have to!" She interrupted sharply and he blinked, seeing her keep her expression towards the villains. "You've been protecting me from them, that's more than enough. So let me be the hero for a little while."

"Uh..." He then silently looked back at the Serpenters. "So you already think I can't do it?"

"I'm not saying that, and I never would! You're a lot of things...but weak to fight these guys? Not when I've watched you for so long. You should've already remembered by now that getting help doesn't mean you aren't strong. Now shut up so I can focus against these guys. You rest up a bit on my back, you'll know what to do," Izuka clenched a shaking fist and he could tell...that no matter what he said, she wasn't going to leave him. If she had asked him to do the same...he wouldn't have been able to do it. So he was putting a lot of pressure on her, which he would admit was a fuck-up on his part. The last thing he wanted was for her to see him fail, and he would not let that happen.

"...Alright, fine," He relented and got behind her. "Just don't give out on me because of your height."

"What, I'm already losing your trust?" She looked back at him as she bent down. He silently got onto her back and she stood up. A reinforced rope made out of light appeared to hold him like a backpack. Izuka then summoned Black Hole underneath her feet for them to fall through. Katsuki used his explosions to give them more speed as she fell through a portal above the villains.

"Not bad," One of them gave a big grin. "Finally letting the runt play?"

"Shut up! All your jumping around's annoying us!" Katsuki shouted while he and Izuka fired together, the girl moving her hands rapidly to fire her Mercury Blast. After smoke appeared, the villain used his knives to have the wind blow it away. However, Izuka and Katsuki appeared right behind him to attack. He flinched while looking up. "Look out!"

She jumped away as the other one attacked, but luckily, she managed to dodge it. Once she landed, Katsuki swung down his arm to fire an explosion and send them flying. Izuka spun around and then held out her hands, firing two shooting stars. Katsuki held up his hand to fire an explosion. She then swooped down as he fired again, grunting as neither of them could get a good hit on the villains. They started to maneuver around a structure and Izuka landed on a star platform, backflipping three times to give Katsuki more opportunities to fire. He gritted his teeth a bit from how quickly she was reacting, and not bothering to stop him from using his attacks. Although...not because he was angry.

How did someone like her get to be...almost on my level? Heh. This...this is why I stopped thinking of her like a mouse a long time ago. No...she's becoming the Symbol that her path is laying out for her.

Once she landed, she slid around the structure on a flying star, and he fired multiple times. She moved her arms back and forth to fire, her feet planted apart to continue flying. Her hair flew next to her as she heard a noise, looking behind her to see one of the Serpenters gaining on her. She narrowed her eyes, moving up her fingers to fire...only for the other one to cut his knives into Katsuki's upper back. He let out a scream of pain from the fresh cuts and Izuka gasped sharply, looking over her shoulder. She came to a stop, landing a few feet away as the twins laughed and brought their knives back to their bodies.

"Katsuki! Oh no," She cried out while looking back at him. "I'm so sorry...! That wasn't supposed to-"

"Shut up! Focus on them!" He held out his hand past her face. "Stop your laughing!" He then pulled back the pin from his grenade gauntlet. "It's getting on my nerves!" He shouted as he sent out a huge explosion towards them. This sent off a chain reaction of mini grenades that had been planted around the structure, causing it to explode. The Serpenters tried and failed to cut the falling debris to prevent it from hitting them. It then fell down on the two, causing a cave-in and an explosion. Izuka covered up her face with her arms from the smoke. Katsuki was panting as he let himself rest his face into her back, bleeding from the shoulders, face, and back now.

Izuka closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. It was...painfully hard to hear him like this, and that he got hurt again during their plan. "We're in this together, you know? Protecting me on your own isn't what I want. So can we agree on that?"

"Whatever...just don't tell me what to do," He panted out, looking up as he saw that she still wasn't hurt thankfully. "Put me down." She did as asked and he got onto his feet. The girl stared at his bloody eyes and shoulders. "Idiots never saw that coming, huh? We planted a few grenades while we were fighting. Didn't mean to stain your suit."

"I really don't care about that...I don't like this," She confessed, causing him to look at her. "Flect Turn had these guys by his side, right? Maybe it's because that archer was with him too...but I don't think they'll make this that easy just because it's us." She distinctly remembered that they faced off Beros three times in the span of days. So burying the Serpenters like that was easier said than done just by comparison.

Before he could argue with her...she was actually correct because the Serpenters had Trigger on them. Which they used on themselves. One of them pulled out the syringe and then a flurry of knives emerged from the debris. Katsuki gasped sharply and then the two came out of hiding. The two heroes-in-training watched as the villains gained even more deadly blades, and they grew in length. They let out a laugh while now on Trigger...

Katsuki panted heavily as they stared up ahead, the boy gritting his teeth. "We've got this...just watch yourself."

"Yeah, got it," She narrowed her eyes as he bent down.

"If you wanna get crazy, we're right with you!" Katsuki screamed as they both flew towards the Serpenters together.
