Nah, Izuku won't be using sunlight spears any time soon. He will be using something completely different tho...
As always, my honored unofficial editor, I've made the corrections.
Also, I never said that Gael specifically was the one to bring the, ahem, souvenirs.

9.Preparations II
Toshinori Yagi, known to the public as All Might, was a man who was far, far from perfect. During his career as a Pro Hero, and life in general - he made a lot of mistakes. From some of them he managed to learn invaluable lessons, while from the others...he had to suffer the consequences.
He was glad that he didn't had to go through both of those ends with Izuku Midoriya's case. The Pro Hero knew from the start that the kid obviously had some training, which helped him a bit when he was fighting that sludge scum, and frankly - he would've made a good pick for One for All, if Toshinori knew him a bit better.
And now he knows. He knows that, within Izuku, beats a heart of a true hero. Of someone who would put aside his own well being for the sake of others.
It was probably what Gael saw when he decided to train his grandson.
He berated himself, due to being incapable of immediately seeing something in the boy the same way Gael saw. The old Hero trained Izuku for 10 years straight, just because he managed to see Izuku's true nature.
So much for being a guide for the future generations to come, huh.
Toshinori was sitting on a particularly large fridge, which was being carried by Izuku.
His first training objective was to clean this particular spot of the beach-turned landfill. He knew very well that Gael was using this particular spot for training with Quirks in the open. Toshinori also knew that Gael wouldn't mind what they were doing now at all.
He was truly astonished by Izuku, as he was dragging the fridge from the beach in a steady pace. Moreso, since Toshinori was sitting on it in his transformed form.
When Toshinori asked Izuku for his name, he wondered how he didn't see that the kid was Hisashi's boy.
The first time All Might met The Stalwart Hero Gundyr, said hero was fighting a run-of-the-mill Villain with a mutant strength Quirk that turned the Villain into a fire-breathing lizard. Gundyr was wielding a massive dull black sword that looked like it was made from pitch black rock, which he used to crush the Villain onto the ground.
He remembers how Gundyr noticed him immediately after the Villain was soundly defeated, and asked him to watch over the criminal. All Might didn't even get to say anything on the matter as Gundyr bolted straight towards a nearby trashed store where, presumably, the lizard-like Villain committed robbery.
All Might, while standing guard on the unconscious Villain, saw how Gundyr went to an injured store clerk sitting on the floor, clutching his burned arm. A light shone brightly below Gundyr as he held a piece of white cloth in his hand. Gundyr crouched near the store clerk, and a ray of yellowish light erupted from the ground, which quickly faded.
What surprised All Might was that the burns on the clerk's arm were no more, and judging how he wasn't clutching it anymore - it seemed like Gundyr healed the boy.
Gundyr exited the store went straight towards All Might. Before Toshinori could say anything, Gundyr said:
"Thanks for your help, Rabbit Man!"
Those exact words marked the start of a...quite interesting friendship, to say at least.
The Stalwart Hero always fought with weapons, and he had quite a wide array at his disposal. Not to mention that he was quite proficient with them too. So far, All Might has seen Gundyr using studded leather straps, paired maces that resembled oversized drums, a large silver curved sword which had straps of hair on the dull side of it, a pair of daggers that could electrocute opponents upon contact.
The weapon that amused All Might the most was a humongous, black hammer that looked like a tooth of a mythical beast...which Gundyr used to pancake Villains into the ground. The reason why it brought a smile to All Might was the very idea of someone using a tooth to smash Villains. The No.1 Hero was sure that he probably didn't even see half of the arsenal Gundyr had.
His costume choice was also interesting, to say at least.
It was funny how some of their physically-weaker colleagues would thought that Gundyr's outfit was a light-weight armor type similar to Ingenium's outfit, and then see them mustering up the strength to lift Gundyr's gauntlet made from solid iron. Armor, helmet, gauntlets and leggings were made with thick iron plates that were bound to stop a bullet or a knife without any problems.
But All Might did have to question on the parts of his armor that were left completely naked and unprotected - mainly his elbows and knee ligaments were out in the open.
"It can get pretty hot and stuffy in this armor, so constant ventilation is a must for me. Besides, my Quirk covers up that problem of vital part exposure."
Hisashi Midoriya's Quirk is called Indivisible Body, which made amputation of his limbs entirely impossible. Of course, he could receive injuries to the skin and muscle, but his Quirk-boosted bones and joints made him immune to any kind of dismemberment. Hisashi even said that, because of his Quirk, he could never go blind nor handicapped.
"Ah well, retirement is overrated." is what Gundyr would usually say.
The No.1 Hero didn't have a need to question Hisashi's healing abilities, as he presumed that he simply had a dual Quirk that inherited from both of his parents. Rare, but not unheard of.
He was glad that he was wrong with his second assumption that Hisashi was actually working for him - the Stalwart Hero was an open book, in a good way, and he somewhat radiated an aura of sincerity.
That and, well, he wasn't reserved when it came to having opinions on...anything, really.
Toshinori's reminiscing of the past was interrupted when he noticed the garbage truck being almost next to the fridge he's been sitting on.
He jumped from the fridge and looked upon his protege, who grabbed the now-vacant fridge and pushed it next to the lifting panels of the garbage truck.
"Midoriya my boy...can I ask you something?"
The question quickly got Izuku's attention, as he quickly finished placing the fridge on the panels and responded:
"Of course, sir!"
Toshinori couldn't help but chuckle at the boy's antics.
"Against my better judgment, I've told you that you cannot become a Hero. With that in mind, you had no reason to accept my proposal...and yet you did. Why?"
Izuku was caught off guard with that, but nevertheless, he answered. And with a smile, at that.
"All Might...you told me your secrets, things that would jeopardize you if they ever became public. You've trusted me with all of that, and I didn't see any reason to not accept your offer!"
Everything that the young boy had said made sense to All Might. Heck, Midoriya both reminded him of Hisashi and his younger self.
He knew, deep inside of him, that he made the right choice.
"Oi, Deku!"
Toshinori turned around to see a familiar blonde boy approaching them at a walking pace.
Bakugo Katsuki was his name, if All Might remembered well. He recognized him since he was one of the three who were fighting the Sludge Villain.
"Kacchan! H-How did you know I was here?"
"Gramps told me. Now...when did ya think about telling me that you're training with frigin' All Might?"
...
Oh shit.

10.Preparations III
"I assure you, young Bakugo, that I was simply giving young Midoriya some...pointers on how to train. With the addition of helping him out a little, of course."
The public picture of All Might was one of a man who fearlessly saved the innocent, fought crime with an unfaltering smile and was always fair to everyone. The last part, however, would come in question if it were to be found out that he was privately training a kid.
Toshinori, of course, had a few protégés in his career. The difference, however, was that he was officially recognized to be their mentor, while he wanted to keep Midoriya's training in secret. He is the next one to receive One for All, after all.
It didn't mean that he could help out a bit on the fly, which was a perfectly normal thing to do.
"Yeah! He's been giving me a few tips on, well...how to train!"
Gosh, young Midoriya is a bad liar. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it's really not helpful now.
"Huh, is that so...?"
Bakugo got a bit closer to both of them and said:
"Well, considering that Deku's getting your power, All Might, he'd probably need the most reliable help."
Izuku just now realized why Bakugo was acting a bit weird when he returned his Talisman. He just gave him the cloth and moved on without saying a thing.
The Pro Hero almost choked on his own spit upon hearing those words. All Might could notice anger from a mile away, and the blonde boy was now radiating a lot of it.
He, however, didn't get to say anything in response as Bakugo continued:
"Seriously, you couldn't have said that offer a little louder? Who the hell says important secret shit like that in the open for everybody else to hear?!"
...
Oh.
"Uh, well..." Toshinori was at loss for words now. True, it was relieved that the blonde boy wasn't angry at Midoriya or him because of their deal, but rather at how he approached Midoriya with his offer.
Izuku, on the other side, put a hand on his chin, and had to admit that Bakugo was technically right about that.
"In hindsight, All Might've could've picked a better spot to tell me that. Or he could've even contacted my dad, since he told me that they knew each other rather well, which is pretty awesome now that I think about it. But then it comes across the problem whether my mom also knows about All for One, which could prove a bit tricky to find out. Or not, since I could ask my dad about it. Also..."
"You're mumbling again Deku."
Bakugo was right yet again, leaving Izuku a bit embarrassed by his habit.
"Young Bakugo...I ask of you to keep this arrangement a secret - if my enemies were to know this, I'm afraid that it wouldn't bode well for neither me nor young Midoriya."
"Sure."
"I under...e-excuse me?"
Izuku silently chuckled at his friend's bluntness. If there was one word that he would describe Katsuki Bakugo with, that word would be - direct.
"Don't worry about it, All Might - my lips are sealed."
But there was something that bothered Izuku a bit, so he asked:
"Kacchan...you don't mind that I'll be getting All Might's...power?"
Katsuki laughed in a very non-sarcastic maner.
"Nah. Why should I? Of course you'd need a proper Quirk to get on my level." he said as he boastfully laughed again, unaware of the sweatdrops that formed on both Izuku's and All Might's head.
Bakugo suddenly stopped laughing and his tone got a tad bit serious as he spoke:
"Deku...if you somehow manage to fail the Entrance Exam, I will kill you for wasting both the old man's and All Might's time. Got it?"
Izuku saluted and blandly responded:
"Dully noted."
"Good. See ya later, nerd." Katsuki said as he turned his back and waved at them.
All Might noticed the smile on Izuku's face, and said:
"You have quite a...unique friend. I hate to ask, but - do you trust him?"
Izuku turned his gaze from Katsuki, who was far away, to his mentor, and, with great pride, responded:
"With my life."
That's what the old Bakugo would've thought.
Come to think of it, it'd be really retarded to think like that. Deku might be a clingy, and sometimes a pain in the ass, but hell - I know that I'm not that much different. Guess you were kinda right, Gundyr.
Katsuki now understood where his and Deku's priorities were.
While Bakugo wants to be a strongest hero with a goal to surpass All Might, Deku, on the other hand, is a bleeding heart that simply wants to help others, even at his own expense.
Well, each to his own.
He almost didn't notice the man leaning on the corner of the building he was passing by.
Almost.
"Heya there, Baku-boy. How is it going?"
"It's going really...seriously, what kind of question is that?"
Hisashi Midoriya laughed at that. He told Bakugo a long time ago to drop any kind of socially-required respect between him and his son's friend, since, by his words, it is a 'waste of time'.
"I see you're familiar with Toshinori's and Izuku's little deal, no?"
Toshinori?
Probably All Might's real name.
"Sure. Deku could've been a bit louder when he said that he'd accept All Might's Quirk so that the WHOLE block can hear him."
Hisashi chuckled.
The hero was off-duty now, and was wearing standard civilian clothes - blue jeans and a white shirt. He was also wearing green crocs as footwear, so Bakugo had to fight off the urge to kick the guy.
"Alright kid, I've got 2 weeks free from work, and I thought that you'd want a fast crash course training before I go. What do you say?"
Katsuki was visibly surprised by the offer, and said:
"Why help me? Aren't you supposed to help Deku?"
"Izuku already has two teachers preparing him for the exam - it would be a bit much if a third came along, now wouldn't it?"
The bomber nodded in agreement and responded:
"Sure...if you got anything new to teach me?"
"Ha! I like your spirit! Well, starting tomorrow, you'll be my personal punching bag! Be ready." Hisashi laughed as he left Bakugo and went towards his home.
Bakugo had a devious smile on him, and said to himself:
"We'll see, old man."
Bakudan Mask
A black domino mask with decorative, explosive-like cloth on both ends. Worn by Katsuki, known as the Flaming Scourge to his enemies.
Katsuki may not have been a gentle man to his allies and friends, but he stood forever loyal to them, even when it lead him to despair and tragedy.

Izuku turned his gaze from Katsuki, who was far away, to his mentor, and, with great pride, responded:
"With my life."
O
A wide smirk formed on Bakugo's face as he was walking away from his friend and his idol. If Izuku was to actually receive a Quirk from All Might himself, then the twerp could potentially become a threat who would try to curbstomp Bakugo so that Deku hogs all the fame and glory.
That's what the old Bakugo would've thought.
Come to think of it, it'd be really retarded to think like that. Deku might be a clingy, and sometimes a pain in the ass, but hell - I know that I'm not that much different. Guess you were kinda right, Gundyr.

Memories I
Sir Attlich
No money? No problemy
11.Memories I
It was a mistake.
And he never bothered about the consequences of it.
His whole platoon dead. His fellow knights burned to ashes and soot. His sword broken in two pieces.
He never liked using the elegant, long silver blades they've been given - they simply weren't the necessary conduit for his sheer raw strength, something that clearly distinguished him from his comrades.
But with strength, comes temper. And with temper, comes impatience.
The orders, given by his squad leader, were to form up a blockade to hold off one of the dragons until the golden lion knight comes to their aid.
He never liked him, never liked the hidden smugness he radiated with when he was chosen by the Lord's firstborn to become his protege. Flaunting with lightning spears like a damn sorcerer instead of rushing head-on like a true warrior would.
Funny enough - he lived, or at least tried to live by the warriors code...and on it's road, he forgot his first and foremost duty.
He was a soldier. And soldiers follow orders and protect their own in the heat of battle.
But his temper worked against him, as he decided to move towards the dragon to puncture it's scales, weakened by the barrage of lightning spears that suffered not too long ago.
The dragon swatted him off, and the knights, now distracted by the foolishness of one of their own, perished in a blaze.
He knew some of the knights, but he never did befriend them. He knew their opinions of him, and knew that some of them even expressed jealousy of the strength that was gifted to him at the start of his life.
'Some strength I have...' he thought as he tried to get up and at least - die on his two feet.
He soon found himself in the grip of the dragons talons, squeezing him as hard as it could.
"Why do you defy us?"
The dragon's question shook the knight to his core.
He knew that their adversaries were capable of understanding each other by using the common tongue. But they never bothered to do so...until now.
Had it been any other soldier in his position, they would definitely respond that they are simply following orders.
"Because, beast...it's the only thing we CAN do!"
He knew that the dragons cannot breathe fire consecutively in a short time period...
So he pushed.
A shockwave forced the talons away, breaking the iron grip of the dragon. The creature was caught off guard...and it never saw the golden cross-spear until it was embed in it's head.
The ancient dragon fell as lightning cackled from the spear and it's wielder. His armor shone amidst the gray battlefield, and the red plume on the top of his helmet gracefully whirled with the wind that was caused by the dragon's crash.
The injured silver knight got up on his own, even though his savior was directly looking at him.
"You conjured a miracle."
There was no hint of surprise nor envy in his voice - the way he spoke about it was as if he stated a simple fact.
"What is that to you, huh?"
The golden knight didn't respond to the remark. He turned around to see the remnants of the knight platoon.
Few moments have passed before he spoke up:
"Report to the Lord at once and await further orders."
He left, leaving the silver knight alone.
"Tch...like I need you... to know what to do." He muttered to himself, as there was no one left alive to hear him...
Grandpa Gael is right...it seems that the very power of the miracles comes from the belief in it's tale, and not the story itself...
The easy part of him understanding the Force miracle is the uncanny resemblance this knight, the original creator of the it, had to Bakugo.
Izuku chuckled a bit at that. He remembered very well the 'fairy tales' he was told by his parents when he was little - now he found out that all of them were sugarcoated, watered down versions of the real thing.
Before he finished his training by going to the beach and finishing what's left of the garbage dump, Izuku approached Gael and asked:
"Grandpa Gael...whatever happened to the knight?"
"Hm...there are many thing surrounding the fate of the knight. But beneath all the assumptions - there always lies one guaranteed truth."
Gael sat down on the nearest porch, and continued:
"After they've won, the knight went to the Lord's blacksmith and asked to forge him a weapon suited for his strength. His fellow knights mocked him as his choice weapon was meant to be used by executioners, but he paid no mind to that.
Afterwards, the knight left the city of the gods to find his purpose."
"Wasn't it mentioned somewhere that he and the Stone Knight were kinda like, uh, best friends?"
"You are correct, grandson. They met as bitter rivals at first, and formed a friendship that was even stronger than siblingship through their own similarities and differences.
But, unfortunately, it didn't last long, as you know - the Stone Knight was exiled for treason, and was slowly losing his mind on top of that. So he asked his friend to lock him up in a tower while making an oath to guard his home far, far away."
In a way, Izuku admired the creator of the Force a bit - he wasn't afraid to take his own path and befriended someone who he probably hated...and provided him help when all others abandoned him.
I wonder what Kacchan is doing now?
Green Cell Card Key
Key to a maximum security cell, made to host some of the most powerful individuals to ever exist.
Yet one such individual asked a dear friend to put him in there, in fear that his powers may force him to harm others close to him.
It was a mistake.
And he never bothered about the consequences of it.
His whole platoon dead. His fellow knights burned to ashes and soot. His sword broken in two pieces.
He never liked using the elegant, long silver blades they've been given - they simply weren't the necessary conduit for his sheer raw strength, something that clearly distinguished him from his comrades.
But with strength, comes temper. And with temper, comes impatience.
The orders, given by his squad leader, were to form up a blockade to hold off one of the dragons until the golden lion knight comes to their aid.
He never liked him, never liked the hidden smugness he radiated with when he was chosen by the Lord's firstborn to become his protege. Flaunting with lightning spears like a damn sorcerer instead of rushing head-on like a true warrior would.
Funny enough - he lived, or at least tried to live by the warriors code...and on it's road, he forgot his first and foremost duty.
He was a soldier. And soldiers follow orders and protect their own in the heat of battle.
But his temper worked against him, as he decided to move towards the dragon to puncture it's scales, weakened by the barrage of lightning spears that suffered not too long ago.
The dragon swatted him off, and the knights, now distracted by the foolishness of one of their own, perished in a blaze.
He knew some of the knights, but he never did befriend them. He knew their opinions of him, and knew that some of them even expressed jealousy of the strength that was gifted to him at the start of his life.
'Some strength I have...' he thought as he tried to get up and at least - die on his two feet.
He soon found himself in the grip of the dragons talons, squeezing him as hard as it could.
"Why do you defy us?"
The dragon's question shook the knight to his core.
He knew that their adversaries were capable of understanding each other by using the common tongue. But they never bothered to do so...until now.
Had it been any other soldier in his position, they would definitely respond that they are simply following orders.
"Because, beast...it's the only thing we CAN do!"
He knew that the dragons cannot breathe fire consecutively in a short time period...
So he pushed.
A shockwave forced the talons away, breaking the iron grip of the dragon. The creature was caught off guard...and it never saw the golden cross-spear until it was embed in it's head.
The ancient dragon fell as lightning cackled from the spear and it's wielder. His armor shone amidst the gray battlefield, and the red plume on the top of his helmet gracefully whirled with the wind that was caused by the dragon's crash.
The injured silver knight got up on his own, even though his savior was directly looking at him.
"You conjured a miracle."
There was no hint of surprise nor envy in his voice - the way he spoke about it was as if he stated a simple fact.
"What is that to you, huh?"
The golden knight didn't respond to the remark. He turned around to see the remnants of the knight platoon.
Few moments have passed before he spoke up:
"Report to the Lord at once and await further orders."
He left, leaving the silver knight alone.
"Tch...like I need you... to know what to do." He muttered to himself, as there was no one left alive to hear him...
O
Izuku managed to perform the miracle several times until both his body and soul became exhausted.
Grandpa Gael is right...it seems that the very power of the miracles comes from the belief in it's tale, and not the story itself...
The easy part of him understanding the Force miracle is the uncanny resemblance this knight, the original creator of the it, had to Bakugo.
Izuku chuckled a bit at that. He remembered very well the 'fairy tales' he was told by his parents when he was little - now he found out that all of them were sugarcoated, watered down versions of the real thing.
