"No-" Izuku muttered, trying to pull away. But he was getting weaker and weaker. The adrenaline was starting to wear off quickly. All of a sudden, his whole body was on fire, and he couldn't do anything but yell in pain. His quirk was being stolen, One For All was being stolen! He wished he could do something. But his knees were going to buckle any second, and then, he'd be out any minute, back to the quirkless teen he used to be-A hand gave his shoulder a good shove, throwing him put of the grasp of All For One, and he fell to the ground on his knees, panting. He placed his good hand on the ground, and looked over at who had pushed him ou t of the way-only to find it was both Bakugo and Jiro. "Don't-" He said, standing up. "You can't take him down, he's too powerful for you-" Bakugo used an explosion, sending the villain back a few feet, and he knelt, cupped his hands together, then, once Jiro lowered her foot into his hands, he hoisted her up, and she jumped. "HEARTBEAT WALL!" Then, Bakugo looked over at him. "Since when has anyone ever been too powerful for me?!" Izuku shook his head, taking a step forward. "You don't understand! Only One For All can destroy All For One! I can't let you-" "Shut up, you idiot! You've got spikes stuck in you, and you're still trying to fight! If you keep moving, you'll only-" Izuku lost his balance, and started to All, but Bakugo rushed forward to catch him. "When you pushed me out of the way, and took the blow, do you know what it reminded me of?" Izuku shook his head after a minute. "It reminded me of when I did the exact same thing for you. And the way you're still trying to fight? I tried to as well, at first. But you need to rest before you kill-" Izuku stood, and flicked a strong gust of air at All For One, who was behind them with a hand stretched out. "I can still fight, Kacchan. I'm going to take him down. I have to. And I'm sorry about this." Even though he was exhausted, he willed Blackwhip to wrap around Bakugo and Jiro, then throw then through the air, knowing they would land safely. With that, he then wrapped it around All For One, who was just now standing, used it to bash his head reapdetly into the ground before the villain passed out. After that, Izuku fell to the ground himself, and passed out, the sound of someone's voice still in his ears. "You did good, Midoriya. We'll rush you to Recovery Girl right away."
