Musutafu Central Hospital, 3 days later, a week after the chaos of Musutafu...
All might readjusted the large scarf around his neck for the third time. He was in his emaciated form, wearing warm clothes too big for him, a sigh of fear and apprehension tightened his throat deeply and his sweaty hands trembled.
He was really stressed at the idea of going into this hospital room. An overly intense feeling of guilt twisted what was left of his organ of digestion.
"Come on Toshi, you can do it..." he said to himself, counting to three, he gently pressed the bundle he had to his heart.
He opened the door and as soon as he entered he bumped into a green-haired woman who was about to leave.
"Wow!" exclaimed All Might.
"Damn!" said Inko, rubbing her head. "Well, you have a very solid torso despite your frail figure, Mr. Yagi!" laughed Inko as she raised her green eyes to him.
"Mrs. Midoriya!" Toshinori greeted, bowing hurriedly.
"There's no need to be so strict! Call me Inko, let's see! It is thanks to your training that my son has awakened a Quirk and that he will be able to become a hero, even if he is already a pro hero for me, you are very important to him!" smiled Inko tenderly as she gently shook his hand.
Toshinori remained stunned for a few minutes, before clenching his fists and lips and forcing a smile.
"I also appreciate the young izuku very much, he is very important to me and I promise to protect him and follow him in his training as long as possible" says toshinori with conviction and raw sincerity.
Inko smiled wistfully at her, her baby had already been through more than she would have thought possible for a teenager her age. The burdens and responsibilities will become too heavy for him and she was convinced that the presence of this wrinkled gentleman would greatly lighten Izuku in this adventure.
"When I got checked, I thought I wasn't going to Izuku anymore, but thanks to Trinity X, whom I consider a lot like my daughters, Izuku is still here and so am I... The whole city is saved..." Inko said, his eyes shining with tears of happiness.
"Indeed, this is one of the biggest crises that has ever hit our city, it's a miracle that we are all here..."
"yes", Inko smiled happily.
A soothing silence took place, only disturbed by the daily noises of the bustling hospital.
"Izuku is watching movies on his tablet, you can go see him... I'm going to look for good food! See you later!" smiled Inko as she left him alone at the door.
Toshinori followed her with his eyes before clutching his package and going home.
He saw his successor lying on his back watching the movie Sonic the Hedgehog on his tablet.
"Go ahead, Sonic! Destroyed Eggman, Jim Carrey is playing too well!" exclaimed Izuku with shining eyes, headphones in his ears and maximum concentration on the final fight.
"well..." All Might laughed tenderly, patting him on the shoulder.
Izuku looked up at him and hurriedly removed his helmet.
"All...!! Mr. Toshinori!" exclaimed Izuku in astonishment.
" I came to visit you like a normal person and I'm here!" said All Might as he raised both his fists with a big smile.
"I... I'm so glad to see you! You know... I"
Izuku didn't have time to find any other words than All might hold him tightly to him, tears streaming abundantly from his sunken eyes, rolling down his cheeks.
"Young Izuku... I'm sorry, so sorry... I hit you, I hit Red diva and I almost killed you, even though I was controlled, what I did is unforgivable..." he said, sobbing painfully.
"All might..." Izuku whispered softly, snuggling up to him.
"I understand your pain but I ask you not to blame yourself..." Izuku said softly, his eyes shining with tears.
"But... How can I still see myself as a symbol if I have been a threat to my successor and my city?" asked Toshinori, trying to wipe away his tears that were constantly flowing.
"Don't say that! Even I, without daigoro and the other carriers, would have been in the same state as all of you, you are the symbol of peace all might, you are not the symbol of invincibility, you can't blame yourself for that, it's unfair to yourself..." Izuku said firmly before smiling softly.
"The best thing you can do is stop ruminating on that guilt, it's the best chance to make up for grinding my guts," Izuku laughed, patting him on the chest with a smirk.
All Might burst out laughing and dried his tears as he watched Izuku with a small smile.
"young izuku... You've grown so much, you've become so much more mature," the peace symbol said softly.
Izuku rubbed his neck gently as he laughed and looked out the window at the city. The silence was soft and soothing.
"X fixed the city in a snap of the fingers, even though I've seen him change the animation and change the reality of our world sometimes, it's really incredible..." Izuku said serenely, his eyes shining with intense admiration.
"Me too... Me too..." replied All Might, with his blue eyes shining with the same admiration.
"And I, too, his Quirk is definitely the biggest mystery I've wanted to solve since the beginning of my career..." said a small, thin, soft voice.
All Might and Izuku looked down at the little hybrid with white fur, a sober, well-fitting suit, and yellow boots, who was sitting on izuku's bed and watching Oppenheimer on his tablet.
Izuku was stunned, staring at all might with his mouth wide open...
"He was hidden in my scarf," All Might explained nervously. "When did you get out, Mr. Headmaster?" asked the peace symbol, trembling with fear.
"for approximately 135 seconds.." laughed sardonically as he put the tablet down.
"The principal of UA... The smartest being in the world, the one who founded the very first superhero school and who reformed the whole society thanks to his work... His manuscripts are read by the greatest doctoral students and he is studied in conferences..."
Izuku began to mumble violently and Nezu burst out laughing while all might sweated profusely.
"Young Izuku..." Softly called All Might to reframe him.
"Sorry all might!" Izuku apologized hastily, blushing.
"You are fascinating, young Izuku, you remind me so much of your great-great-grandmother Ikumi Midoriya!" exclaimed Nezu happily.
Izuku stopped blushing as he watched nezu in amazement...
"You... Did you know Ikumi Midoriya?" Izuku wondered, wide-eyed.
"Yes... I know a lot of things, we're going to have a very long conversation, not only about what happened a week ago but also about your link with X, you're clearly not just a candidate for my entrance exam you know..." he said with a cold smile as Izuku looked at him with extreme seriousness.
All might looked at them in turn, clutching the coin engraved with an X at the bottom of his pocket.
