My Hero Academia Symbol of Hope (DC x MHA)

A New Day

The hospital room was quiet, a stark contrast to the chaos that had unfolded just hours ago. Kai sat beside Kara, his hand resting reassuringly on her shoulder as they spoke with Tsukauchi, All Might, and Grand Torino. The tension in the air was palpable, but there was a sense of calm now that All For One had been defeated. For the first time in a long while, it felt like there was hope for the future.

Kara, still processing everything that had happened, looked at Tsukauchi, her blue eyes wide with uncertainty. "What... what happens to me now?" Her voice was small, unsure, the weight of her past still pressing down on her.

Kai squeezed her shoulder, his voice firm yet comforting. "You're free now, Kara. All For One's gone. You can choose what you want to do with your life. You don't have to be anyone's pawn anymore. It's your choice."

Her eyes widened, and a small, hesitant smile tugged at her lips. "I... I want to be a hero, like you. I want to go to U.A., train, and learn how to control my powers."

Tsukauchi raised an eyebrow, glancing at Kai. "Is that even possible? U.A.'s already in the middle of the year."

Kai chuckled, leaning back in his chair. "I guess I'll just owe Nezu another favor," he sighed dramatically, rolling his eyes. "Again."

Tsukauchi blinked, clearly caught off guard. "Wait, you can actually pull that off? I mean, I know you're close with Nezu, but it's not something you can just... ask for."

Kai smirked. "Well, let's just say Nezu owes me a few favors." His grin widened, though there was a hint of exhaustion behind his eyes.

All Might, who had been sitting silently for most of the conversation, cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention. "I'll take care of it. Kara's going to U.A.," he said confidently. "And," he added with a smile, "I'll adopt her, too."

Kara's eyes widened in surprise. "What?" she breathed, a mixture of confusion and disbelief flooding her.

"I raised Kai," All Might continued, his voice warm and reassuring. "I've already done it once. I can do it again. And since I'll be retiring soon, I'll have more time. You'll be part of the Yagi family now, Kara."

Kara's heart raced, her emotions a whirlwind as she processed All Might's words. This was a new world, a new life, waiting for her.

Kai leaned back, raising an eyebrow with a teasing grin. "You know, you two are both blond. Honestly, Kara, you look more like his daughter than I ever did," he joked.

Kara blinked, her lips curving into a hesitant smile. "I... I guess that's true," she murmured, looking between Kai and All Might. The weight of what All Might had said finally sank in, and a sense of belonging stirred within her chest.

All Might chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling. "Well, you're welcome to the family, Kara."

Kai smiled, feeling a sense of pride for his adopted sister. "We've got your back, Kara. Always."

Just as the moment of camaraderie began to settle, Tsukauchi cleared his throat, bringing the conversation back to the darker matters at hand. "There's still the issue of Shigaraki Tomura... or rather, Tenko Shimura now. We know what All For One did, using his own master's grandchild against him."

Kai's expression darkened. "I can't believe All For One pulled something like that... using his own master's bloodline. But knowing his twisted history, I guess it makes sense."

Grand Torino, who had been quiet for the majority of the conversation, spoke up. "I'll take care of that," he said firmly. "All Might shouldn't get involved in this. You're going to retire soon, Toshinori. And besides, if you face him, you won't be able to see him as a villain, not after all that's happened."
