3rd Person POV

Midoryia's cries echoed through the air as All Might comforted him. The child held his hand up close to his chest as his fingers began to become a soft purple. "It'll be okay Young Midoryia, let's just get you back to Recovery Girl." All Might stated, lifting the crying boy into his arms. 9 times. Midoryia had broken some kind of his bone in his body 9 times throughout the week he was with All Might. It seemed to have been a good idea after all to keep him away from the other students. He couldn't control when or where his power decided to activate, meaning that it could happen when Midoryia was doing any kind of activity. Today's incident happened because he had gone to toss something into the trash can, leading to the breakage of his fingers in his right hand. Not to mention it left All Might's kitchen in shambles.

All Might hurried him to UA, holding the boy tight as he used the little strength he had to super speed down the street. All Might was only able to relax his form whenever Midoryia would fall asleep. That was the only way to insure the child wouldn't be scared of him.

Midoryia began to say something between his sobs, catching All Might's attention.

"I'm s-so sorry, A-All Might!" He hiccuped, clutching to the hero's shirt with his one good hand. All Might looked down at the kid, a soft expression on his face. "This isn't your fault Young Midoryia. Your quirk is just too strong for your body right now."

"That's n-not why I'm s-sorry." Midoryia replied, tears streaming down his cheeks. The boy's response confused All Might, causing him to tilt his head.

"Then what is it my boy?"

"It's j-just that y-you entrusted me with c-carrying One For All, and I'm too weak to even d-do normal everyday things without hurting myself. I've failed you."

All Might's heart nearly stopped as he processed Midoryia's sentence. He remembered One For All? Had All Might heard him wrong? All Might raised his eyebrows in shock. "W-What did you just say Young Midoryia?"

"I j-just said that I failed you. I'm not worthy of your-" Before Midoryia was able to finish his sentence, his eyes widened as he let out another deafening scream. He clutched his good hand to his head, squeezing his eyes closed. Pain shot through the boy's skull and slithering it's way down his back.

"Midoryia?!" All Might yelled, watching the boy grab at his hair, trying to make it stop. Shit, I have to hurry. All Might kicked his power into overdrive as he hurried faster to the school. He busted through Recovery Girl's door, nearly causing the old woman to have a heart attack.

"My goodness, what's happened this time?" She asked as All Might laid Midoryia down on one of the beds.

"He broke his fingers, but I think there's something else wrong." All Might stated, as Midoryia thrashed around on the bed in front of him. "H-He remembered One For All."

"Oh dear, we need to sedate that child immediately then!" Recovery Girl exclaimed, grabbing a syringe from one of her cabinets. She filled it with a liquid before asking All Might to hold Midoryia down. All Might grabbed onto the boy softly, preventing him from rolling around as Recovery Girl injected him with the substance. Midoryia seemed to fight against the sedative as his eyes fluttered a couples of times before slowly closing completely.

Recovery Girl began to heal the boy's broken fingers, gently pressing her lips against them. All Might watched her work, growing impatient.

"So what does this mean? He remembered the fact that I gave him One For All so shouldn't that mean his progressing? What was happening to him?" He asked the elderly woman, causing her to sigh and turn to face him.

"This is the second phase of Midoryia's recovery. He will begin to regain all of his memories but it will take a toll on his brain. He will be experiencing excruciating headaches for the next week before his growth spurts begin." She stated, looking sadly at the boy. His face was relaxed as he slept soundly with his head against the soft pillow. He seemed so...peaceful. "He will need you to be there for him for emotional support during this time."

All Might nodded, "Of course." He took a sit in one of the chairs that were against the wall of the clinic. Recovery Girl turned back to Midoryia, finishing up the rest of his treatment for his fingers. She walked over by All Might, taking a seat next to him.

"So now what?" All Might asked, his eyes gazing softly at his young successor. His form deflated back to his normal body. Recovery Girl leaned back in her chair.

"Now, we wait."
