Chapter Seventy Six. Aftermath
(AN: holy fuck over 400K reads, y'all have no idea how much that means to me and I appreciate each and everyone of you taking the time out of your day to read my stories.
Anyways I just wanted to say thank you and I will be making one more chapter after this which will be the epilogue.)
Izuku forced his body to keep standing despite all the pain he was in, he slowly looked up at the surrounding area where the heroes and Nomu's we're. All of the Nomu that worked for Shigaraki stopped since the mind control over them ended with his death. They all now stood motionlessly waiting for orders except for the couple that were able to keep their minds together and not break.
"W-we won.." said Mina holding her bleeding arm "WE WON!!!!".
Ochako smiled as she looked at Izuku who was standing tall.
Everyone started cheering, they were jumping and screaming in happiness while others were crying from hearing and seeing this.
Back at UA Rumi was crying in happiness while holding both Kaina and Katsuki. Himiko was hugging her showing just how happy she was that the pain is finally over.
Izuku's legs gave out and he collapsed but kept his arm up as he himself started to cry.
Now that all this pain was over, they now had to fix everything and help those that have suffered through Shigaraki's reign of terror.
Even with all of Izuku's healing quirks he felt as if he couldn't get up but then he looked up at everyone and knew he had to, no matter the pain he endures and suffers he must endure it and fight through it all. "Get up" he thought slowly putting weight onto his legs and standing to his full height.
"Now that the battle is over, we must rebuild everyone, we have to show the world that we can still stand and keep fighting" said Izuku.
The era of hope has now truly begun as the darkness finally collapsed, the clouds above them started to part and rays of sunshine broke through the clouds.

A day passed since the battle and the Nomu we're put in restraints before they were sent to prisons to be held until the IHA and world governments could decide what to do with them.
Izuku himself was now in UA sitting with his family while holding Kaina who was holding onto his finger as she slept.
"She's definitely gonna be a daddy's girl like Eri.." thought Ochako, Rumi and Himiko staring at the scene.
Eri was leaning against Izuku asleep and she herself was holding Katsuki since she said she wants to be the best big sister ever.
"So Izuku now that the battle is over what will we do?" Said Rumi looking over at him.
"I'm gonna see if I can possibly help all those that were turned into Nomu and if not I'll help train Eri to do so, they don't deserve to live that kind of hell, they should be with her families celebrating that they no longer have to spend every weekend hour fearing that Shigaraki will come and kill them or turn them into Nomu's" said Izuku.
"After I do that... Me and dad are gonna work to try and capitalize on the fact that every single country in the world is working together. We are going to try and convince them that we need to keep working together to help create a society that allows quirk usage for everyone. Maybe we can make it so you can use a quirk but only heroes can use them to fight villains".
Himiko smiled at hearing that and walked over to him and placed her forehead against his "I know if anyone can do this, it will be you Izuku" she said happily.
"Thank you Himiko... We have to change society, we can't allow another Shigaraki or Dabi to be born, we have to be better than this...
I know it's an impossible dream giving how humans are, some people will always discriminate against others no matter how hard we try to make all of society accept, some will always be against it" said Izuku.
"It's sad that people are like that.. but we still have to try so no one else suffers just because they have a quirk that people think is villainous" said Ochako.
"Hopefully one day we can get to that point" said Himiko as she sat next to Izuku and gently trailed her hand over his. She then looked up and saw that all the green in his hair was completely gone and all that was left was snow white hair much like Eri's or his own father All For One. "I have to admit the white hair actually looks really good on you".
Rumi and Ochako agreed, they didn't know what it was but something about him having white hair made him seem more attractive and it looked really good on him.

A couple days later reconstruction for Tokyo began and the heroes all started to help rebuild it and society viewed them as heroes again and thanked them all for all the hardships they had to endure to keep them safe.
While that was happening Izuku was at the new prison holding the Nomu and he was looking at one of them in particular.
"Tell me, are you still in there Dabi?" Said Izuku.
"Y-s I... St-ll here" said Dabi looking at him.
"I'm here to talk to you about multiple things, first is how long have you been under Shigaraki's mind control" said Izuku.
"Battle... Ok-awa" said Dabi in broken japanese giving his vocal cords barely even existed.
"Well... You'll still be punished but they may show some leniency giving that" said Izuku as he stood up "also just know it may be possible to reverse that".
After he left Dabi looked down at his disgusting form, he hated that he was turned into such a monstrosity but now it all depended on what Izuku says and does.
Just then the cell door opened and Dabi looked from across the glass wall and his eyes widened.
His family was standing there staring at him.
"T-toya.." said Rei quietly as she cupped her hands over her mouth, her baby boy was turned into the monstrosity because of Shigaraki wanting to rule the world like some kind of dark god.
Dabi looked away, he couldn't bare looking at his family giving everything he has done to them all and so many innocent people.
Fuyumi slowly walked to the glass and placed her hand on it "T-Toya?" She said in a desperate voice hoping he'd respond.
"Toya please.. talk to us" said Natsuo, he remembered his last conversation with him... If only he actually listened to him then maybe none of this would have happened.
Dabi slowly looked up at his family with a pained expression in his eyes.
The other Todoroki members walked to the glass where Fuyumi was, they abandoned Toya once, they were never going to do that again.

Izuku exited the prison and used float to fly to the roof of a building where he landed on it and waited a couple moments for someone to show up.
"So the great Deku has graced me with his presence" said a voice.
Izuku turned around and looked at Stain who was crouching down on the side of the building looking at him with calculating eyes.
"I wished to talk to you that's all, after what did for us I won't track you down right away, I'll give you a day headstart" said Izuku.
Stain actually let out a chuckle, a day wouldn't even be enough to find a hiding spot from him.
"What did you want to talk about then?" Said Stain slightly intrigued what the hero of the world would want to talk to him about.
"I simply wanted to say thank you.. when I look back on it to our fight and your philosophy... I understand why you did what you did.
Our society is corrupt and it breeds people that simply want power and control just because it's cool, they don't want those things because it's the right thing, they only care about getting famous and making lots of money... Yet despite this society creating people like that we still make lots of good people who help us and show us how we should act and be and not just what society tells us.
The more I think about this kind of stuff the more I realize that in a weird way you are right about certain things, we do need to change society and heroes" said Izuku.
"And tell me how will you accomplish this?" Said Stain beyond intrigued now, he didn't fully know why but he really wanted to hear Izuku's answer.
"The first thing is to change our education system and how we view heroism, it shouldn't be all about money or how cool and popular you are, it should be about helping people because it's the right thing to do.
Then I'll have to help change societies view on it as well, it will be a long painful journey and have lots of road blocks but.... It's a hero's job to endure anything to save people and that's what I shall do" said Izuku.
Both Izuku and Stain then started at each other before a small smile appeared on Stains face.
"Our world is in good hands with people like you and your class, they are all true heroes and I can't wait to see what kind of heroes they will be once they graduate" said Stain "until next time Deku and also.... Thank you for saving us all".
Izuku watched as the hero killer disappeared and he then looked down at the very roof he was standing on, it was the very same where he got his dreams crushed over a year ago.
"So much has changed since that day" he said looking at the sun that was slowly setting.
He then looked at his phone and saw that Rumi was asking him back since this will be the first day that 2A meets Katsuki and Kaina.
"Things sure have changed" said Hisashi appearing next to him "the evil I created is now gone and now the world is in better hands".
"I'll be sure to make this world a better place, to many people had to suffer for us to get here but I'll make sure that none of their sacrifices were in vain" said Izuku as All For All coursed through him and arcs of blackish red and green lightening arched around him.
He then jumped off heading back to the 2A dorms. As he flew he saw lots of destruction but at the same time he saw hundreds of not thousands of ordinary people helping the construction workers, fire fighters, police and even heroes with all of this.
"The gears have only just started spinning but we are on our way to a better future" said Yoichi with a warm smile.
Izuku nodded his head and he landed at the dorms where he saw Rumi walking while she carried both of them in individual car seats. He gently landed on the ground and looked at them.
"Hey Izuku glad your back, so what was it you needed to leave so badly for?" Said Ochako.
"It was just someone I needed to thank... Now come on let's head inside so everyone can meet these two" said Izuku pointing at the two.
They all agreed and started to walk inside but Eri insisted that she rides on papa's shoulders which Izuku happily obliged to do for her.
Once they all entered the dorms they saw all of 2A, 2B, the staff along with a couple other heroes. They were all celebrating the victory they achieved thanks to Izuku killing Shigaraki.
The girls immediately moved in and started to gush at how cute the babies were and they then immediately started asking Rumi is child birth is really as painful as woman claim.
For poor Rumi she was dragged off by the girls and was getting questioned a lot, especially from Kyoka giving she was going to be having her baby in a couple months from now.
Rumi of course wasn't going at this alone and brought both Ochako and Himiko with her since if she was going down she's taking them with her.
The guys started to cheer for Izuku and patted him on the back while thanking him.
During the party Izuku talked to almost everyone in the room but he noticed that only one person was missing, it was Nezu who was out in the back looking up at the moon.
He exited the building and sat next to him.
"You ok principal Nezu?" Said Izuku looking at him.
"Oh why yes I am... Just sad at the same time" said Nezu still staring at the moon.
"Why is that?".
"Because my journey for this story is coming to an end, once this is all done Izuku I'll be leaving the reigns for this story in your hands while I go and work on other ones" said Nezu.
Izuku looked at him shocked "but why are you leaving? You should still be here".
Nezu gave a hearty chuckle and looked at Izuku "because every author knows when it's time to let a book end and in a couple days or maybe a week or two... This one shall end...".
They both sat in silence before Nezu looked back up at the stary night "you can go back inside Izuku, I'll be fine don't worry".
Izuku nodded his head and patted Nezu on his back before he walked back inside to join everyone.
"Over one year and a couple months ago I started this story all because of one picture.. it's quite sad to end it... But every book has to come to close" said Nezu before he stood up and walked off heading to his office as he left everyone to enjoy the party.
As Nezu entered his office he sat down at his desk and looked at his Wattpad app.
"I need a good cover art for the final chapter.. hopefully I can find one or maybe one will be made that has Izuku, Rumi, Ochako and Himiko together along with all of their kids and Eri together... Yes that would be a great picture to find or have on the last chapter of my book" said Nezu as he quietly went back to writing in his books.
(AN: I sound like a asshole for saying this but I really would appreciate it if I got a drawing like that to use for my final chapter).
