Kiri is usually very perceptive to the changes within Izuku, but not this time. Whatever happened was too quick, too sudden, for her to fully grasp.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjAdeIA7XF
It felt similar to when she lost control before, but different enough to make her even more worried.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhms53hC60f
As soon as Shinso fell unconscious, she knew her sisters would want some answers. So she left her class and made her way to where they were.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7nz2XOMXG
It didn’t take long for the whole family to convene; even All Might was there. They all looked at Izuku who had his head downcast. Inko sat next to him, rubbing his back.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nUVl47pqd
Inko: “Sweetie, what… happened?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrEoVffPck
Izuku said nothing.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHJnrqPyCJ
All Might: “You’re not in trouble, young Midoriya; we’re just worried.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaz5KIxsR8
Izuku: “I know.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMp9gPjiFW
Tatsumaki: “Izu, does this have anything to do with what we talked about?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPVLlCwGXG
His eyes widen a little before settling back to normal.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c7bBgiLIE
Tatsumaki: “I see. The first step in learning how not to fear your quirk is to understand it. So, what did you do to the boy?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBzx0m3xBj
Izuku: “I didn’t mean to.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBdV8AyC92
Inko: “We know, sweetie. We know you would never do something like… that… on purpose.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cmigEYgoP
Izuku: “… All I remember is going unconscious for a second, and the next, he was screaming. I don’t… know what happened.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp8Z3Z0G5e
They all could tell that last part was a lie. Maybe he doesn’t know exactly what happened, but he has an idea. This only increased their worry.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GdN3gqN2F
Fubuki: “Let’s think about this from another angle. All Might, what quirk does Shinso have?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8hvRrYu54
All Might: “Hmmmm, from what I remember, he has the ability to brainwash people.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmC0g6wj9k
Fubuki: “That’s… disturbing.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtgj1i49UF
Tatsumaki: “I think I know what happened.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUgLPnNDCG
Izuku: “Y-You do?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdPBtcE8bO
Tatsumaki: “I thought I sensed another psychic signature. It was weak, but there.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5K826oCRx
Fubuki: “So Shinso has a quirk related to ours?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpOU96sY3x
Tatsumaki: “Yeah, but instead of telekinesis, he focuses on mental attacks.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt09HbLCdZs
Fubuki: ‘I guess that makes sense. Wait, doesn’t that mean I could do that eventually?’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAH3dZZL05
Inko: “But what does that have to do with Izuku?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTLAvM0P6K
Tatsumaki: “Well, I guess Izu’s mind instinctively defended itself.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETii6Q7I6W
Kiri could see Izuku’s shoulder lose some tension. They were on the right track.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vvyYf21dM
Inko: “I see! See, sweetie, it’s not your fault.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1W7uprFSU
All Might: “She’s right, young Midoriya; don’t let what happened get to you. Young Shinso will be alright; Recovery Girl is on the case. In the meantime, you need to get this side of your quirk under control.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uOM2QSLPX
Izuku: “I’ll… try. I-I’ve already been practicing telepathy with Yaoyorozu.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB7pJdjCG4
Fubuki: “Really?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsNYi8QbXC
Tatsumaki: “That might have been what allowed your mind to fight back like that. More practice could help you have more control.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzgeukc6a9
Izuku: “I… suppose.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk59YclPm3D
Fubuki: “I can help teach him.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQUp53gkSp
Tatsumaki: “You? How?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTSBlLwnS5
Fubuki: “Well… I’ve been recently… learning how to read minds.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSvd5L4dMD
They all look at Fubuki with wide eyes full of surprise.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb0F3C8Jj4
Tatsumaki: “You can do that!? Why didn’t you tell me?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62cLVjopQD
Fubuki crossed her arms and looked away.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1J13uNIOe
Fubuki: “I didn’t want to until I mastered it. You always said I should train harder; well, I found time.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlGnZNkYgd
Yeah, Tatsumaki always said that. Put the agency on the back burner and train harder. That way, Fubuki can stand proudly beside her at the top. But for some reason, this didn’t put a smile on her face.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI1q9DEKVp
Tatsumaki: ‘Why would she hide it from me? She used to be so excited to share when she learned a new trick with her quirk.’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuGtfQCSq1
A trick or ability Tatsumaki would master in just a few moments.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFSjpK410n
Tatsumaki: ‘Ah…’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzt2w9TFYdo
Before that realization could sink in, Fubuki continued.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IZLG7Z07p
Fubuki: “So, Izu, if you need help, come to me. We can help each other master this ability so we don’t hurt anyone on accident.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrozU3adKdH
Izuku: “… Okay. Thanks, Fubu.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH2JTY6pL1
Fubuki: “Anytime.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPryvwtUwP
All Might: “Great! I’m glad you all have sorted this out. I’ll inform everyone else what we’ve learned about young Midoriya’s quirk.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bHLOQDkAH
Izuku: “They might still be scared.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9zT7WO3CR
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, can’t please everyone. You are what you are. As long as you don’t go overboard or misuse your quirk, most people will be fine with you. You’ll see.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFoMMHGQB0
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, thanks everyone.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHeLgYGUtF
Just then, a loud boom was felt throughout the whole stadium. Tatsumaki was ready to tear apart the villain who dared come here. But she relaxed when she saw the real reason.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQxtzhzhM8
Tatsumaki: “You have an impressive classmate, Izu.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3xxulS9E6
Inko: “W-W-What is that!?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk3iNX9zRU
A massive glacier of ice engulfs a large portion of the stadium. It was large enough for the whole group to see it out of their window. It was actually pretty close to their booth.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXrRqFSSdu
Izuku: “Todoroki… ”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF6FOjiUs6
All Might: “He might have gone a bit overboard.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwPLRTISND
Kiri: “Icicle strong. Poor Smile.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLffXxHo1Lz
Fubuki: “Doesn’t that mean you’re up next?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1Uc2TW7AG
Kiri: “Ah.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGIZjD53Q9
Inko: “That’s right! Good luck, sweetie!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMDImN4xVe
Kiri: “Ih.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MCMLzAFkt
Kiri grabs Izuku’s hand and helps him up.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCsa7i5aF5
Kiri: “Cheer for me?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqmGc8G6L0
Izuku: “O-Of course. I’ll be with everyone else. Don’t worry, Kiri, I’m… okay now. It wasn’t my fault; I know that now.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92tmK4GejX
Kiri: “… Good.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpb2uZMj5O
All Might: “I’ll walk young Midoriya to where his class is.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHMxtiHb15
Fubuki: “I’ll help melt the ice.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8lBkV3EJm
Tatsumaki: “You don’t want me to do it?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd38ui0Ysnw
Fubuki: “I can handle it.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZglNWj4O3
Fubuki floated out of the booth and towards the glacier. Shaving away the ice with her quirk shouldn’t be too difficult. Besides, she can’t sit and do nothing this whole festival.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE5VXlVhoJ
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl2UvqkEIe
It didn’t take long for the trio to make it to where the rest of the class was. Izuku peered out of the corner to see his classmates sitting down and socializing while the glacier was rapidly shrinking.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jC6Fv2pKF
All Might: “Don’t worry, young Midoriya, it will be alright. Your classmates will not treat you any differently.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3ax4F1i2R
Izuku: “I-I know. Doesn’t stop my heart from racing.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYSms70io2
All Might: “Hahaha, if anything, it proves you didn’t do it on purpose. Someone who worries about how his friends see him wouldn’t do something to make them fear him.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E9xxQOBh3
Izuku: ‘Not on purpose.’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU60ykLgXY
All Might: “I’ll go check on Shinso. You cheer on your sister and prepare yourself for your next match.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4hB2v2tIZ
Izuku: “R-Right. Thank you, All Might.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDALiI9EL9G
The boy waved goodbye to his idol turned mentor. When he was out of sight, Izuku sighed. Bringing his mind back together and rejecting those low rumblings within, he steps towards his classmates.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwMz8mNJo2
Mina: “Oh, Midoriya!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVBESxCapF
The entire class snaps their heads towards the boy, who instantly freezes.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdyPcWUXB8
Izuku: “H-Hey-”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcENoDIeZW
Several of the more worried and curious classmates bolted towards him. The questions came one after the other. All of them, however, boiled down to a single concern. What did Izuku do to Shinso, and are they both okay?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKY5Pv2vIMm
Before Izuku could answer, Momo came to the front.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHJPPXfYjz
Momo: “Midoriya, you don’t have to answer if you don’t feel comfortable. We trust you.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6CxymZUH3
Uraraka: “Yeah! But we would still like to know.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghDVCdwDCe
Denki: “For curiosity’s sake.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H9UWhR1mo
Izuku: “T-Thanks e-everyone. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you what I know.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhG7kiw7Kp
And so Izuku explained what he discussed with his family. After hearing the story, they all sighed in relief.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKMRC6C4TU
Ida: “I knew you were not someone who would do something like that on purpose. I’m glad I was not wrong.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7vcTXHRg9
Mina: “Yeah, looks like Bakugo was right.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYs9OQzjqf
Izuku: “Kacchan?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH10LgTUxp
Kirishima: “Yeah, he actually defended you when we were worried. Crazy, huh?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp6F5z7Zaj
Izuku’s eyes widened and his heart lifted when he heard that. He looked past his friends to see Bakugo, who kept his gaze on the arena.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY3E3b8DmB
Izuku: ‘Is he… changing?’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1zGO7PY2f
Denki: “Wait a minute!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQOCbFtsQ5
Thunder Boy held his hands up before getting everyone back to what’s really important.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNF04ewVtE
Denki: “Midoriya, are you telling us you spent days training with Yaoyorozu? At her house? Alone!?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECUAdrGLNP
Izuku: “Y-Yes?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHcLvm3R2F
Denki: “You lucky bas-”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0PHPObE6k
His words are cut short by a stab to the neck by Jiro’s ear jacks.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzMyeDFQWu
Denki: “gah!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2fKUJMKsZ
Jiro: “Idiot.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYKGvxvlR7
The group laughed, which slowly helped Izuku put himself back together. As for Momo, she tried to fight down the blush that graced her cheeks.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNN3hLIuJ4
Momo: ‘Now that Kaminari mentioned it, that was rather bold of me. If Midoriya were a different type of boy, we may have-’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p5mqliSLV
Tokoyami: “The next match is starting.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP3OzY6t6g
They look at Tokoyami, who was sitting down already, prepared to view the next match.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWdXffEqXy
Kirishima: “Right! I don’t want to miss this!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zbPbOc9Om
The class went back to their seats, and Izuku joined them. To his surprise, he was in between two girls. Uraraka to his left and Momo to his right.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PGF5KBDMe
Knowing which voice would comment, he immediately shut it down and focused on the match instead.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeC8MEjK9z
Izuku: ‘Good luck, Kiri. I know you can do this.’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloKag2BfYJ
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9v489QRSX
Present Mic: “And here we are, folks, MATCH THREE!! Will this one be just as brief as the last two? Let’s find out!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkTxV3ggy9
Kiri steps to the stage and faces her opponent, Aoi Nogami.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bCJKvSo9N
Present Mic: “On one side, we have the silent and incredibly strong girl from the department of heroics, class 1-A, Kiri Tae!!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVYFeQB3p0
Present Mic: “Her opponent! The girl who stole victory with a single move during the obstacle race. The teleporter from the department of heroics, class 1-B, Aoi Nogami!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgSwlp8BOr
Aoi: “Sad to say, this match will be quick too.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjepZVH8i2g
Present Mic: “REAAAADYYYYY!?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6oLdNzsYa
Kiri didn’t respond; she got into a fighting position and readied herself.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz5qzCfkij
Kiri: ‘Onii, watch me!’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAyNxoPjJx
Present Mic: “START!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7Kj0jmPPM
Instantly, Aoi teleports in front of Kiri and tries to touch her. Sensing danger, Kiri dodges right on time and dashes to the other side of the arena. The dash, however, was messy, tearing up the ground with every step.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF3xNVVIly
Present Mic: “Oh, will we have a real fight here, folks!?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcDJIP1QLE
If Kiri could sweat, she would be drenched. She tightens her stance and narrows her gaze.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7hgMZ9Kw6
Aoi: “So you figured me out, huh? Yeah, one touch is all I need. And I have a feeling, one day, I won’t even need to do that.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlhy6Q5q1n
Again, Aoi was gone. Only thanks to her acute senses was Kiri able to dodge another palm strike from behind. But Aoi didn’t stop; she teleported everywhere Kiri went.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkE0xeePDe
But Kiri was too fast physically to be tagged by Aoi. At this point, this was nothing but a game of tag. One that could go on for hours.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xTDFjszgK
Present Mic: “Wow! I can barely keep up with these two! But this can’t go on forever; who will be the first to trip up!?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gvzTdSfqc
He was right; someone had to take a risk if they wanted this to end. With that in mind, Aoi was the first to try something crazy. She wanted to wait to try this against one of the stronger physical fighters, like Bakugo or Todoroki.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWTZobDNwo
But clearly, Kiri was a physical powerhouse as well.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzY9wHl4K6
Aoi: ‘Oh, well. Here goes nothing.’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFvXnyRSki
The esper breaks off her assault and teleports to the edge of the arena. Kiri was confused for a second but quickly guessed that Aoi might finally be tired.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmBeUHVqkQ
So she goes on the offensive, dashing forward with fist raised, ready to knock the girl out.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuHFIQdPew
But Aoi wasn’t tired; no, she was focusing. She placed her hands on the stage and willed her desire into existence. Veins emerged on her forehead just as Kiri was in front of her.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef47SiPvVo
But before the blow landed, both her and the stage disappeared.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ0KfX71dI
Everyone: “HUUUUUH!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86o3VCMpA8
Present Mic: “S-S-She teleported the entire stage high into the sky!!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlpOc7bIVn
Kiri’s eyes widen as she sees the green grass feet away. She was… going to lose?
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C2jfldHEB
Kiri: ‘No!’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2As7CvSCQz
Her brain went into overdrive, desperate for an answer to her problem. A split second later, the conclusion revealed itself. It was a side of her ability that she hasn’t used often.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwfKC5B8LC
Her ability is tactile telekinesis, the ability to use telekinesis on things she touches. It’s what gives Kiri her immense physical power and near-complete body control.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZRXipA7rc
But aside from her body, what else is she always touching but never uses telekinesis on?
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBCOwdUPZM
Kiri: “SMAASH!!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzncrDiFGuQ
Air.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CFTQKTlnz
An explosion of wind and smoke envelops the ground as Kiri is propelled into the air by the force of her attack. In fact, she kind of overshot it!
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDEBUgDg0A
She shot straight through the stage, shattering it into several large pieces.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46e4ETcu6I
Aoi: “Shoot!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLob4UAEco
Aoi teleports out of the way of the rumble. As for the spectators, they were saved when green energy enveloped the rumble and carefully lowered it onto the ground, away from the stunned Midnight.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunvF6YhLj7
Present Mic: “Thank you, Tornado, for saving the spectators and Midnight!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90v8vf0rXJ
Tatsumaki nods before sitting back down to watch the conclusion of this surprising match.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7vo87rPW7
Present Mic: “I swear, kids these days are crazy! With no stage, it looks like this is a battle for the air. Whoever touches the ground first LOSES!!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ewUnLytPK
Seeing a chance to end this madness, Aoi senses the space where Kiri is at and teleports there. Kiri quickly rights herself and hits the air once again. The explosion of air was enough to blow Aoi back, disorienting her.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQym0QPLVT8
Seeing an opening, Kiri kicks off the air and tackles Aoi.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPc93jQBfC
Aoi: “Ugh!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC23k0JZdNX
They’re both quickly heading to a meeting with the hard ground.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctO2SLxFbJ
Seeing this, Aoi teleports back up. But Kiri is still stuck to her like glue. This was it, the dead end.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDIQcGgaVs
She could keep teleporting, but Kiri wouldn’t let go, and Aoi can’t break out of the hold.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztF4En9fO4
Kiri: “Give. Up.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AtIUmoBwJ
Aoi closes her eyes and sighs.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTyQsS6SSg
Aoi: “Okay, you win.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfqehxvAFE
With one last teleport, the two appear, standing on the grass.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5HqOWtcAP
Aoi: “I give.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6yNPQtSjO
Midnight: “N-Nogami surrenders! Tae advances to round two!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqgoDrrOED
With the results in, Kiri lets go of Aoi.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqrG2c21kn
Aoi: “Man, you have a tight grip. Thanks for the match.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHICzXIc3V9
Aoi holds out her hand, and Kiri smiles before taking it.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJIHadzDKg
Present Mic: “Such sportsmanship and utter destruction! We haven’t seen a battle like that since Blizzard versus Psykos! And I have a feeling it will only get better from here! So stay tuned! Right now, we need to repair the stage.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRshm7GvHpN
Aoi teleports back to her team while Kiri looks up at her classmates, specifically Izuku, and gives them the biggest smile she could give along with a peace sign.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuEwhBjmT6
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5I8yV7QG3
Denki: “You want to fight that?!”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD68tK0xSWW
Kirishima nervously chuckles.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUM6ZovHBq
Kirishima: “I have a long way to go. But yeah, I still want to show how far I’ve come as a fighter.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxun517yRX
Denki: “Bro, are you an M?”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigWTwwedOn
As the rest of his class discusses the short but explosive battle, Izuku keeps his gaze on Kiri. Unlike everyone else, he heard what was beyond that smile.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Mbloy8NTW
Kiri: “Izu, you’re not the only dangerous one. Even if you can’t control it yet, you can practice with me. I can take it all and help you through it. I’m strong. I’ll prove it to you.”
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EZCgStMNE
Izuku: ‘I know you’re strong, Kiri. But… ’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbPm6sbcjU
He shakes the depressing thoughts away. This is a festival, right? Everyone should be having fun.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMqNxHjkPa
Izuku: ‘Relax… focus on something else. Like how Kiri used her quirk. Or the abilities Nogami showed. Or how different and similar psychic quirks are. Or-’
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxagneYMZ5J
Good thing Izuku always has a notebook at the ready, because his mind is finally focused on something fun. Quirk analysis.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyTtyfOCmc
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSb7dl2VhS
Back in the nurse’s office, a new breed was stirring. On the bed, his body snaps into its final state. No, this is just the first step. He can go so much higher.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22uYUO8IJt
His eyes flutter open, releasing a soft purple and gold glow. But before anyone could notice, it settled back into its normal state.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYam60yNK0
But despite outward appearances, his eyes were different. They were better. All his senses were better. The world looked and felt different.
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKMZXYD8RB
He was different. But why and how?
282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4gCfAKjHJ
Shinso was finally awake, and he needed answers.
