«Hey Izu-kun! What are you doing?» Toga asked as she walked into the bar followed by Dabi and Shigaraki. «I'm rewriting my old notes. I showed my notebook to All For One and Kurogiri and they said that the information I wrote were very interesting, so they gave my the task to rewrite them.» Midoriya said with a smile. It had been a week since he had talked to Kurogiri and he already made a copy of the first one.

«It sounds like a pretty hard work!» Dabi said, walking closer. Midoriya shook his head. «It's not a problem. I remember every single word I wrote on all my 13 notebooks. I liked to take notes about heroes hoping to become like them one day...»

Midoriya looked away. The three villains saw the sadness in his eyes but they didn't said anything about it, deciding instead to look at the notes. On the table there was the ruined number 13 and the copy of the number 1.

«Analysis of the heroes for the future No. 1, eh?» Dabi read, taking the notebook. Midoriya nodded smiling a little.

«You draw very well, Izu-kun!» Toga said, jumping over Midoriya to hug him , the boy chuckled embarrassed. «I do my best, however those drawings are very schematic, since they only serve to describe the costume in general.» «You must have an inhuman memory if you managed to remember so much details! Are you sure it's not your quirk?» Midoriya put his hand on his neck and he shook his head. «I'm sure. The doctors said that I was quirkless, so...»

«Midoriya... what is this?» Shigaraki asked in a bit creepy tone, showing All Might's autograph to the green haired boy. For all that time Shigaraki was carefully leafing through the few pages of the 13th notebook until he had stopped at the last written page.

Dabi and Toga turned to Midoriya whose face lost every emotion as his eyes fell on the writing.

«That's the reason why I'm here today» he said with an emotionless tone, then he looked away picking up another notebook while the smile return to his face. «I want to write a notebook about my new villain friends too. I have already described Kurogiri, can I write about you too?»

The three looked at each other, then they all nodded and Toga and Dabi brought the chair closer to him to look as he worked while Shigaraki sat in front of them.

«What the hell did you do to make a boy so sunny and cheerful become so expressionless just by seeing your damn autograph?» Shigaraki thought as he moved his gaze from his friends to the autographed page.

Hours later, Midoriya was transported by Kurogiri to the room where he had met All For One the first time.

«Midoriya Izuku, I'm glad to see you. Kurogiri told me you wanted to write something about me in your notebook too, is it true?» All For One asked. The room was as dark as the previous time with just a little light to lit the desk.

Midoriya nodded. «I-I hope I won't be too annoying or rude with my questions...» All For One smiled and shook his head. «Don't worry, it's normal to be curious. Especially since no one has a quirk similar to mine.»

Midoriya's eyes brightened. «What is it called?» «It has the same name as myself, All For One. Thanks to this power I'm able to steal people's quirks and make them my own. I can also combine them to create new ones and I'm capable of forcibly activate the quirks of others too.»

Midoriya, who was writing down everything, stopped writing, too amazed. «Wow! His quirk is fantastic, sir!» All For One smiled. «I would prefer you to call me Sensei from now on. Back to my power, it's not over here, I'm also able to give the quirk I steal or the combined ones to the people I deem worthy.»
