Too Late

Chapter 27: A Glimmer of Hope

Recovery Girl carefully observed Midoriya as she conducted her tests, her eyes focused on the monitor displaying his vital signs. The room was filled with a tense silence as the class anxiously awaited her findings.

After what felt like an eternity, Recovery Girl removed her glasses and let out a sigh. "I've made an interesting discovery," she announced, her voice laced with a mix of intrigue and hope.

The class leaned in, their eyes fixed on her, desperate for any glimpse of good news. Aizawa stood stoically beside them, his gaze unwavering.

"It appears that Midoriya's true self is fighting to break free," Recovery Girl explained, her tone filled with a sense of wonder. "His willpower, his core essence, is flickering like a dim flame struggling against the darkness. Every now and then, it manages to shine through, but it's quickly suppressed."

Uraraka's eyes widened, her heart filled with a renewed sense of determination. "So, you're saying that Deku is still in there, fighting against the control?"

Recovery Girl nodded, a small smile tugging at her lips. "Yes, Uraraka. It seems that Midoriya's willpower is not completely extinguished. There's a glimmer of his true self that remains, desperately trying to assert its presence."

Todoroki's voice rang out, a mixture of hope and concern in his tone. "Is there anything we can do to help him? To strengthen that flicker of his true self?"

Recovery Girl pondered for a moment, her gaze shifting between the determined faces of the students. "It won't be easy, but I believe there might be a way. We need to create an environment that fosters his true identity, where he feels safe and supported. We have to remind him of who he truly is."

Aizawa, who had been observing quietly, finally spoke up. "We'll need to devise a plan, a series of exercises and stimuli that can trigger his memories and emotions. It won't be an instant fix, but if we can keep that flicker alive and provide the right conditions, there's a chance we can bring him back."

The class nodded in agreement, their determination unwavering. Each of them understood the weight of the task ahead, the responsibility they bore to save their friend.

Recovery Girl placed a comforting hand on Uraraka's shoulder. "Uraraka, I believe you have a special connection with Midoriya. Your presence and support may hold the key to awakening his true self. I encourage you to spend time with him, share your memories, and remind him of the bonds you all share."

Uraraka nodded, her resolve firm. "I won't give up on him. We won't give up on him. Deku is our friend, and we'll do whatever it takes to bring him back."

With their collective determination and the flicker of Midoriya's true self as their guiding light, Class 1-A began to formulate their plan—a plan that would test their limits, challenge their bonds, and ultimately lead them on a path to redemption and salvation.

As they stepped into the unknown, they clung to the belief that their unwavering friendship and the power of their combined wills could overcome even the darkest of forces. The battle for Midoriya's mind had just begun, and they were prepared to fight with every ounce of their being.

Little did they know that their efforts would ignite a spark that would reverberate through the corridors of fate, touching the lives of heroes and villains alike. The journey to rescue Midoriya's true self would test their strength, their resolve, and the power of their unbreakable bonds.

In the face of adversity, hope emerged as a guiding force—a beacon that would light their way through the shadows. Class 1-A stood united, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them, for they knew that together, they had the power to bring back their friend and restore the light in Midoriya's eyes.
