Chapter 29: Succession

A/N: Well I knew I'd get some reactions from my choice of expelling Izuku, but it was more explosive than I expected, but I stand by the decision. I wanted to give this story a big twist and I think this was it. I hope you read this chapter at least before deciding to drop it, but if you do drop it all I can say is thanks for coming and for your reviews.
. : Thanks for letting me know hopefully I'll fix that bit before this chapter is uploaded. If not this author's note should remind me.

Days before Izuku regained consciousness.

In the conference room of UA sat Nezu, and all the teachers of UA, the topic of this meeting were none other than Izuku Midoriya. "Are you serious Nezu, expulsion?" Midnight asked as she looked at the principal as he solemnly nodded his head.

"It can't be avoided. Midoriya took part in a battle between a hero and villain-."

"And won if it wasn't for Midoriya All for One would have gotten away and All Might would have died for nothing!" Midnight shouted not believing that she had to spell this out.

"So what, we just pat him on the back and things go on? The ends justify the means is that what we're telling our students?" Eraserhead asked rubbing his forehead. He'd just gotten back from being badgered by a roomful of reporters at the UA press conference. "If we do that we're saying anyone can take on a villain as long as they win. Is that what you want Nemuri?" Aizawa asked using Midnight's real name letting her know he was serious.

"No, but still this is a bit much what is the world going to think if we expel him for trying to help. Everyone saw what he did how he aided All Might and even managed to save a civilian. If we do this we're going to get backlash the likes of which we've never seen. Can UA take another hit like that? First the USJ incident, then Bakugou's kidnapping, and now we expel one of our students for doing what he's been trained to do?" Midnight asked crossing her arms as she leaned back. Nezu ran a paw over his head. In all his years as principal he'd never had a problem as complex as this one even with his immense intellect he couldn't figure a way out of this without getting shit on his shoes.

The room remained silent as each thought about the problem before them. There was no easy way to do this either they keep Midoriya and ignore his actions in favor of rewarding his reasons, or they expel the boy adhering to the law and weather the media storm that will kick up from doing so.

Izuku looked at Principal Nezu his eyes going dark as his mind spasmed at the words he heard. Expelled? Did he say expelled, but then what am I going to do? I can't be hero if I don't attend a hero school. What about what All Might said. He said I could be a hero, if I can't do that what do I do with One for All? Who would I pass it on to?! All these thoughts and more ran through Izuku's mind as Nezu and Aizawa looked on for a moment before Nezu spoke.

"I'm sorry Midoriya but there's no other way, but don't think that we're ignoring the good you did. We are a school of heroes, and we won't ignore your heroic actions. Yes you are being expelled, but you don't have to give up your dream of being a hero." Nezu said as Izuku looked up at him his dark eyes regaining some of their shine as tears gathered.

"I-I don't?" He asked as Nezu shook his head.

"No we may be expelling you, but that doesn't mean you can't pursue your heroic aspirations at another school, or you're free to take this year off and apply to UA again starting next year. We will hold all of your pertinent information and you can resume your studies with us." Nezu said smiling as he placed a paw on his hand.

"You are a heroic spirit Midoriya we don't want to lose you. I can't thank you enough for what you did for Toshinori. He believed you could be a hero and I believe in him." Nezu explained as he patted Izuku's shoulder and slid off his chair. Aizawa stood up as well, but did not immediately follow Nezu out.
