Toxicity
CHAPTER TWO:
A thin figure clothed in a dark green hoodie strode amongst the crowd, hood casting a shadow over his eyes as a black mask covered his mouth, ivory hands reaching into their pockets, digging around until they grasped something small. They pulled out a lollipop that was the same blue as the sky, slipping the mask down as the sucker was placed in their mouth, wisps of green faintly escaping rosy lips. A buzzing in the person's back pocket made the figure lazily reach into his back pocket, placing the phone at his ear, mumbling softly, "Yes... Understood, I'll come back now."
With a faint tap of his thumb, the call ended, turning on his heel as entered a dark alley and removed his hood, messy green hair sprung up as emerald eyes glowed softly in the dim light a purple mist swirled in front of him. Taking causal steps into the portal as the teen slouched forward, spitting the stick of the sucker to the ground before fully entering the portal. Upon arriving on the other side, the teen looked towards the two other figures, "Shigaraki? Kurogiri? Why'd you call me back? Did you need something?"
A computer screen lit up as a deep voice resonated from the speakers, "Midoriya Izuku aka. Green Mist, it is a pleasure finally meeting you. I am All for One. In your absence, we had been discussing a plan that you alone could achieve, however, it would mean going undercover. You see, you're going to be attending U.A and you'll be transferring into the Hero course. Shigaraki has informed me of your ability to take detailed notes on people and you will be doing this for the upcoming heroes in the class. You'll have a total of a month to gather as much information as you can before we initiate the next plan. Although, that is yet to be discussed."
Izuku just inclined his head, humming softly in agreement as he ran a hand through his hair. Eyes darkening as a smirk slipped across his pale lips, "Would you also want me to gather possible candidates to obtain for our cause? And, am I using my given name or another?"
"You can still use your given name and if there is any that may be swayed you may list them and their quirks. Now, I must be leaving, farewell." The audio cut off and a faint static sound was left to float in the air as the laptop was shut. The sound cutting off as Izuku pushed up the sleeves of his hoodie, faint scars decorating the ivory skin as he hummed, "Well... Looks like I have to adopt an innocent personality, an old personality."
A chuckle rumbled in his chest as he noticed the grey clothes that were neatly folded on the bar's counter, running his fingers over the material as he grinned deviously, "This will be fun~"
He collected the clothes in his arms as he made his way through the bar, going up a small flight of stairs as he pushed the end room door open, a small bedroom that smelt heavily of smoke met his nose as the door was opened. He placed the stack of clothes on his messy desk, papers covering it as he let his green gaze travel around the dark room before heading to the little bathroom that was attached to his room and the one over. The light storm grey tiles were outlined with a black as the entire bathroom was a monochromatic colour scheme, the only real hint of colour was the purple towels that hung on the rack next to the shower.
He tugged at his hoodie, removing it from his thin form as he dropped it to the floor, emerald eyes looking himself in the mirror as he noticed many changes of the past two years. Due to all the training, he went through, his muscle mass had gone up although, with a low amount of food consumed made him really lean. Red, purple and creamy coloured marks decorated his ivory skin from battles, training, and mistakes. His eyes constantly had a faint dark shadow beneath them due to a lack of sleep and a few piercing were in his ears. His dark green curly hair was a majority of the time knotted or sometimes combed back and brushed neatly, depending on whether he was bothered to do anything with it.
He sighed as he finished stripping off and let the warm water coax his tense muscles, thin fingers running through green hair as he washed himself down before grabbing one of the purple towels to dry himself off with. The softness of the towel sensitive against the still healing wounds that were on his back from falling into the glass from a broken window. Ruffling his wet locks as he dressed into grey sweatpants and a baggy black shirt, the window in his room showing the orange rays of the sun as it began to set. A sigh left his lips as he slumped onto his bed, staring the ceiling as he felt water droplets run down his face from his hair. His eyes drooped as he let himself fall into the dark abyss known as sleep.
He awoke to the sun's rays seeping through his window, a groan leaving his lips as he pushed himself up into a sitting position, setting his feet onto the cold floor with a hiss. Trudging over to his desk as he slipped into his new uniform, it hanging slightly off his thin form as he ran his fingers through his hair, trying to tame it with little effort. Clipping his black hooped earing in as he began his morning routine of brushing his teeth, packing his green backpack with some empty writing books and a black small box that he'd need during training and a packed lunch from Kurogiri. With that, he slipped on his red sneakers, black medical mask and began his mission with a grin on his rosy lips.
. . . . .
The gates of UA loomed over him, casting a shadow as dark as night over him as he blinked slowly and marveled at the looks of the school as he slowly treks into the quiet school, the bell had already rung a few minutes before he had arrived. His emerald eyes looked everywhere as he made his way to the main office, knocking on the door as he tapped his foot softly on the ground. The door creaked open to reveal a small mouse-dog-bear-thing in a suit, he must be the principal. The creatures soft voice startled me out of my daze as he smiled welcomingly, "Oh, hello. You must be the new student, Midoriya Izuku. I'll show you to your classroom and this is your schedule."
He was handed a piece of paper with a timetable on it of his classes as he followed the small creature through the hallways, narrowing his eyes at the creature in a wary manner before he stopped in front of a large door, knocking on it before sliding it open, "Pardon my intrusion Aizawa, this is the new student..."
Izuku rolled his eyes as he stepped into the room, many eyes meeting his as he gave a slight wave before he stuffed his hands into his school pants pockets as he gave an awkward smile, though it couldn't be seen due to the mask. He shuffled his feet on the spot as the teacher, Aizawa told him to sit in the chair in the back corner next to the window. He quickly made it to his seat, getting out a simple notebook and pen as lesson went on.
The bell for lunch finally rung out as he packed up his things, freezing when he felt a hand on his shoulder as he looked over to see a girl with a round face, brown hair cut in a bob as her big brown eyes sparkled with joy, "Hello, I'm Uraraka Ochaco. I was wondering if you wanted to eat lunch with me and my friends."
Izuku blinked with surprise filling his emerald eyes as he gave her a shaky smile, his voice soft, "I would like that and I'm Midoriya Izuku, a pleasure to meet you, Uraraka."
Uraraka's already pink tinted cheeks darkened a little as she jumped with joy, gently tugging on Izuku's sleeve towards the cafeteria. Izuku eyes squinted slightly to show he was smiling as he held onto his lunch tightly, not wanting to drop what Kurogiri cooked him, and he was an amazing cook. She stopped in front of a table with only one other figure, his eyes and posture told Izuku that he was intense and didn't understand the word chill. He noticed Uraraka and motioned for her to sit next to him while Izuku sat by himself on the other side of the table.
He placed the small container of food on the table, slowing down his breathing as he pulled down the mask and placed food in his mouth, trying not to gas everyone with his quirk. He still has trouble with other people around so he made thick cloth that prevented the gases from leaking through in large amounts. Though it does make eating with other's difficult because he nearly has to stop breathing all together to eat and so he normally ate by himself or far away from Kurogiri and Shigaraki.
His eyes drifted around the room, laughter and absent-minded chatter filled the room, his lips twitching into a frown slightly as he finished eating and pulled the mask back up. Drumming his fingers softly on the counter as he was snapped from his thoughts by a voice, "Oh how rude of me not to introduce myself. I'm Iida Tenya, a pleasure to meet you."
"Midoriya Izuku, it's nice to meet you." Izuku eyes squinted as he smiles underneath his mask, his head tilting to the side faintly as he fiddle with his pale fingers.
"If you don't mind me asking, but why do you wear the mask over your mouth?" Uraraka big eyes were lit with wonder as her head was tilted to the side, before widening in faint horror, "You don't have to answer though!"
A chuckle fell from his lips as he shook his head, gently placing his slender fingers over the mouthpiece, voice low and wistful, "Oh, it's no problem. I wear this because it keeps my quirk under control. It's not very nice when I don't wear it."
With the last word, the bell to signify the end of lunch as he pushed himself to his feet, smiling politely as he wandered back to his locker to put his container away. He grabbed his books for his next class but was stopped by a hand slamming on the locker next to his head, a voice growling out, "Deku…"
