"Come on come onnnn."
"She moved!"
"Is she awake?"
"What even happened out there?!"
"So she's a new quirk?"
"It's okay guys I have an idea."
"Don't hit her-"
Kira's eyes opened right as she was slapped rapidly in the cheek. She coughed and rolled away. What had just happened?
"See! That always works."
Kira blinked several times and rubbed her eyes. Everything felt... Off. When she opened her eyes completely she turned to the voice she had heard. The person who hit her.
"Mornin kid, you had us a little worried there." The familiar man said with a charming smile.
Hawks.
He was in his full hero costume, with fierce wings in their full glory puffed up behind him.
That's weird... Because last Kira could remember Hawks was extremely injured, with no wings at all.
"What... What happened?" Kira asked, rubbing the side of her head. She looked around, only to see she was... Nowhere.
She was surrounded by white, sitting on rock. There was nothing characteristic about the landscape.
It was another dreamscape. Or whatever they were called. Like the one in midoriya and Shigaraki's brains she had visited before.
"Help her sit up. Are you alright Kira?"
An unfamiliar female voice asked. Kira couldn't hear the thoughts of anyone around her. And there sure were a lot of people.
She was pulled up into a sitting position. The hands were gentle. Hawks was still leaning over her, but so was someone else.
A woman with long black hair, grey eyes and a small beauty mark below her lip. She was... Familiar.
Nana Shimura.
Kyra Kokoa.
"Where are we?" Kira asked, looking around at the crowd of people around them.
"Where in One for all." Nana explained, holding her shoulders. "A piece of consciousness ends up here every time he steals a quirk."
Kira's eyebrows knit together.
"Yeah I didn't get it either." Hawks shrugged, whispering to her.
"So... You mean my quirk was stolen?" Kira asked, her heart jumping as she felt a spike of anxiety rise in her.
"No... No it's not that. It's the opposite." Another voice said, a boy around Kira's age walked up with a huge grin. "You stole us!"
The boy had fluffy blue hair and a piece of tape over the bridge of his nose. Kira had seen him several times before... In Aizawa's memories.
Oboro Shirakumo.
The boy's quirk was the base for Kurigiri's. So that must mean All for one had stolen it to create the Nomu. So... A part of his consciousness lived within it.
Like the vestiges in one for all.
They were ghosts, but not all of them were dead. At least Kira hoped not, since both her and Hawks were here.
"We're like copies. Or fragments of our actual souls. Clones created when our quirks were taken, some of us have been here for years." Oboro continued. He seemed... Happy, excited. His attitude reminded Kira was Kirishima. Like a piece of golden sunshine.
"Do you guys... Know what's going on outside?" Kira asked, trying to steady her breathing. Why did it feel like she wasn't breathing??
"We only know what all for one sees." Nana said, looking down at Kira. "We can't see through our own eyes anymore."
"Weird right?" Hawks asked.
"Everything's been dark since you defeated All for one. We thought you were a goner." Oboro had a huge excited smile on his face. "But then there was light again! Randomly!"
"You were resuscitated somehow. But you're still unconscious." Nana said, giving the enthusiastic boy a tight smile.
"Wait... If this place has every quirk every stolen then... Wouldn't One for all be here too?" Kira questioned. "If I actually stole his quirk?"
"Oh he totally is." Oboro laughed and moved so Kira could see behind him. Her attention was turned to a screaming baby, thrashing around in the arms of a woman with small horns all over her body.
"The time reversal quirk shrunk him to the size of a baby as you stole One for all. He has the strength of a reallyyyy angry baby." Hawks said. "Can you believe that little shit is the same guy who gave us so many problems?"
"...No I can't." Kira whispered. Looking at the woman holding him. She had long brown hair and a calm expression. She was the only vestige who looked at the infant without hatred.
"Who's that holding him?" She asked, looking at Shimura.
"That's Eden... She was the first quirk he stole." Shimura whispered. "She's his mother... She's also probably the first person to ever develop a meta ability."
"I thought that was-"
"Hakko Akago?" Oboro guessed. "The 'luminant baby?"
Kira nodded.
"No he was just the first documented one, keep your voice down though, the guy's a little sensitive about the subject." Oboro whispered to her.
"Wait you mean... He's here?" Kira asked with wide eyes.
"Apparently All for one stole his quirk awhile ago, he was jealous over his attention, because they were born around the same time." Nana Shimura explained. "He's as old as quirks themselves."
"Holy shit." Kira muttered, standing up. "So.. what now? Is there anyway to you know... Wake me up?"
Oboro and the others shook their heads.
"No clue honestly. This has never happened before."
"Even when Shigaraki got one for all... He was given a synthetic version created by All for one and the doctor. It didn't hold any vestiges. No one here has experienced a transfer of control like this before-"
"WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE!!" A voice rang out.
Kira looked over and quickly regretted it. A man wearing nothing but a pair of boxers ran up. His skin as completely golden and glowing. His hair styles up in a swoop that obviously had too much gel. He was actually rather built, with an impressive six pack. He looked to be in his late teens.
He turned his attention to Kira and winked. "Hey, I'm Hakko Akago. I'm sure you've heard of me~" he flirted.
"What do you mean another? You mean a new quirk?" Oboro asked, brushing off Hakko's advances to Kira. Who just stared dumbstruck at him. The "Luminancant Baby" was actually here. She had studied him in history books but no one ever really talked about what happened to the guy after his birth.
That was probably a good thing.
"Oh yeah, she just popped up like the rest." Hakko shrugged. "Even though like... She's obviously not trying to run around and steal quirks." He nodded at Kira. "So... Not sure how she got here."
"Show me." Kira said with a frown. "Who is it?"
He shrugged and grabbed her arm. Tugging her along.
"Hey! Is that necessary?!" Kira argued, he didn't respond just grinned enthusiastically.
"Look!" He pointed at a figure on the ground, one Kira recognized immediately.
"Tammy?!" Kira asked, sitting beside the girl. "What happened?!"
Tammy didn't say much and just looked around for a few moments. "Huh... No wonder I felt so much activity around you earlier."
Tammy didn't say anything as she got up.
"How'd you get here?!" Kira asked again. She was so unedge and completely stressed out over all of this. Especially because she had no idea what was going on. She was also around So many people but couldn't hear a single thought. It made the hair on the back of her neck stand on end.
Tammy slowly looked over at Kira.
"I... Gave you my quirk."
