Toshinori was worried after the slime villain incident, Izumi was cooped up in her room clearly offended and conflicted towards the pros' actions. In fact, she didn't know what overcame her, like someone in her past life gave a boost of motivation, like a burden lifted off her shoulders, she came to understand why the league of Villains wanted her to assassinate the pros, although she was still conflicted with her future. So many things had happened to her recently that her mind was slowly going crazy.

Luckily Toshinori was able to take care of it, it seems that Izumi was on her red days... Or the monthly period. A bowl of Katsudon and All Might series cured her angry mood, even Aizawa, Hizashi and Nemuri came to help out.

Knock-knock

The door greeted Toshinori with familiar guests, "Hey Toshinori!, where's the little listener?." Yamada enthusiastically asked. Speaking of the little listener, Izumi wasn't at home which the guest and guard didn't know, so they immediately went to search for the young teen.

Few hours before with Izumi

Shoes, water, sports attire, cellphone, and etc. all the equipment was ready as Izumi began her early walk to Tokoba Beach, it's a total dump at the moment but it will have to do for now as her training ground. As she donned her yellow backpack, she looked back at Toshinori who was peacefully snoozing on the sofa and gently placed a warm comforter and left the cozy home to begin her path to redemption. As she walked downtown, the twilight sun greeted Izumi on a new day.

Back to the present Izumi

A few hours later Izumi was carrying different machine parts as she went back and forth to the trash and the dumpster, the weight of the object gets bigger and heavier, from broken microwaves to busted up refrigerators, from little bit of wrappers to decomposing junk, but kept on going under the beating sun's heat. The next hour later she was meditating in the cold night, it was silent and mysterious, who knows what could happen to her. Ongoing bystanders would wonder in confusion as they passed by her, some would even try to ask her if needed help, kids would sometimes throw sand and rocks thinking it was funny until parents took them away, but Izumi kept on focusing on her exercise.

As morning rose again, Izumi was running in the sandy shores, sweat rained on her skin, muscles reaching their limit and her lungs burned. She took multiple laps around the area until the sunlight touched down. Later she began hand to hand combat, she was a little rusty in some areas, heck she was training on top of broken down beams making sure to land on point, she kept flipping and jumping from beam to beam until one crumbled, sending her to the hard ground in pain. She would pull broken down vehicles to one area to another, kick and punch on makeshift dummies, all the more to reach redemption.

She used her weapons until they reached their limit, katana blades snapped, scythes became dull and guns low on ammo, she would even upgrade them to work better by making her firearms more durable and comprehensive. Next was her marksmanship, she used special customize bow and arrows that can explode, grapple and more, sometimes testing it on live targets like fish or birds. Shooting with a sniper rifle to reach farther targets, shurikens, daggers and other items, there would be times she missed shots but kept going until her arms cramped.

One and a half months later, she fell down on her knees as the pain course throughout her body as she reached her limit but unaware in a near distance, Toshinori watched as Izumi continued to push on as he made his way to the shoreline.

Izumi was beaten like a broken old toy, every part of her hurt as she continued to punish herself with the evil she committed, then a shadow cast over her. It was Toshinori!, he reached his hands out and helped Izumi stand once more, he then led her to a bench with shade and handed her a steaming takeout of Katsudon and a fresh first aid kit, she hesitantly sat down as he began feeding and tending her wounds and bruises. As Izumi finished eating and Toshinori fixed her injuries, he embraced her with a warm hug.

"You don't have to punish yourself, it wasn't your fault." He whispered. He stood up and held both of her shoulders then POOF!!!, All Might appear right before the greenette with his bright smile. "YOUNG LADY!, YOU ARE NOT ALONE, I WILL HELP YOU BECOME THE HERO YOU ARE DESTINED TO BE!!!." He bellowed proudly as he marched back to the beach, Izumi stood there shell shocked but followed him.

"NOW... BEGIN!!!." He said as he took a fighting stance, the female complied and gave a mighty swing to his side, sending blow after blow. But keeping up with the likes of All Might, she still remains standing which amazed the blonde hero.

She threw weapons with all sorts of functions in which he barely made it out without a scratch or two, then proceeded to clear the beach once more. He sat one a busted fridge as Izumi pulled it away, she began to do push-ups and sit-ups as the blonde lanky man coached her, and of course, tending one another's injuries. When the night has fallen, they would return back to the apartment not knowing some pros were watching from the rooftop, seeing how strong Izumi was, she could be the first quirkless heroine in history.

When daylight made way, the strong blonde and combatant greenette didn't waste time training, day by day Izumi felt different and hoped one day her real self would emerge. She became more agile, flexible, and smarter as the day of the entrance test fell nearer, she wrote down potential quirks and information that she can use to strategize on opponents. She was incredibly smart that the pro hero Nezu was impressed, they keep mistaking that she has a quirk, but she proved again and again that she didn't need a superpower to be a hero.

Another day bloomed in Japan, she and Toshinori were doing a morning jog, both individuals were tired and panting for oxygen. And as they made it to the beach they both stood in front of each other, "READY YOUNG LADY!." He said while taking a fight stance.

She took a deep breath while closing her eyes and took her place in the battlefield, All Might immediately charged full force. Meanwhile, the pros were secretly watching from a safe distance as he got closer and closer to the young teen, Izumi opened her eyes and gave the incoming blonde a glare of determination as fist and gadget collided, thus beginning the fight.

Blades, bombs and bullets colliding with skin, cloth and quirk, the battle was becoming intense as both individuals were reaching their limit and Izumi was determined to win the battle. Shotgun gauntlets flared, giant transforming scythe narrowly slashed, bombs and bullets doing tricks and shields appearing in a blink of an eye. All Might was barely standing on his own when finally she delivered the final blow, sending him tumbling on the sand... He remained on the ground until she approached, she reached out to help him up.

"You're ready." He said with a proud smile, Izumi was brimming with tears of joy and let out a triumphant cry. Toshinori was proud as a father as he saw the young girl smiling as bright as him, she ran up to him and embraced him in a hug which caught him by surprise... "Thank you." She whispered.

A few days later

After months of intense training, Izumi felt refreshed after a decent sleep and a good diet as Recovery Girl prescribed, she nagged on how irresponsible Toshinori was with taking care of her patient, heck even the Pros were able to accept the young greenette. She was an adorable ball of sunshine that the Pros never expected, but they still had to tread cautiously around her as she was fragile like a bomb.

Of course, they took small breaks here and there, slowly and surely, Izumi began to open up and express how she feels. "Am I really worthy to breathe in the light when I have killed thousands of men and women?." She said as tears cascaded down her freckled face, Toshinori gently wiped it away, "They say the ones with brightest smiles and loudest laughs... Are the ones with the most painful past." He said, he told her that he too was quirkless like her until a hero saw potential in him and gave him a quirk which was One for All. That very power was from All Might's greatest enemy himself.

"I want you to be my successor, and pass down this power to you." He said... "I can't." She said, which confused him, "I appreciate the offer, but I'm not worthy of such power or responsibility." She said while looking down to the ground, "Young lady, I have seen the way you proved the world wrong. The world may have given up on you... But you haven't given up on yourself." He proudly said, making her shy and blush.

After much discussion and deciding, "Mr. Yagi, I accept the task, but I will only use this power when necessary." She requested that Toshinori looked skeptical, "I'm already strong without a quirk, but when real strength and power is needed, I will go beyond." She explained making them both smile. "Wise decision... Now." He said as he plucked a strand of blonde hair from his head, "Eat this." He instructed.

"EHHH!!!." Izumi babbled in confusion, after a brief explanation on how the quirk works she had no choice but to swallow the blonde fiber and tried not to gag. "Excellent!, now I must return to work, in the meantime you can finish cleaning the beach." He said and took off in his superhero form.

Hours later

The beach was looking pristine again as the trash was slowly fading away, and the weather was perfect for a swim as friends and family made their way to the sea. Izumi simply smiled as she was rolling a worn-out tire, some people who spotted her cleaning up thanked her for her kindness and she politely replied back. But with the scene of families smiling, friends laughing and sweet couples around the area, Izumi felt like something or someone was missing in her life.....

"Is someone still looking and waiting for me out there?..."
