Everything was not fine.

Izukus hair flows with the wind. Hot, fat tears roll down freckles and pale skin, and his knuckles turn white from the force of his grip on the railing. A sickening warmth sits deep in his stomach. When he looks down, his throat feels as though its tangled with knots. His eyes falling to the concrete floor yards under the roof of the building.

Izuku slowly unties his shoelaces, and takes them off, leaving them beside the railing. He leaves a small note inside, and lets the handles of his mustard yellow bag fall of his sholders.

He slowly climbs the railing, and sits atop. Flinching slightly when the cold metal reaches his thighs. Izuku presses his hands together flatly, and murmurs a final prayer to the sky, before standing on the thin railing.

A distant fog slowly seeps into his brain and his vision becomes blurry
Is he really going to do this?
Anxiety begins to bubble up, and he cant thing of anything other than the fact that he is currently standing on the Aldera Junior high rooftop railings.

Then the words "swan dive" echo around his head.
And with a shudder and a gasp, He jumps.

All he can make out is

Purple.

"...cold..."

Izuku POV

"AH-"

My body spazmed and shot up. White pain shooting through my head.
Soft light seeped through the shades of my windows, and my sheets were crumpled, Obvious sign that I had been tossing and turning all night.
I groaned loudly and rubbed my temples, already feeling a headache coming on. I sighed before causioudly standing up. I made my way through the bar, the smell of cheap beer and alcohol making its way through the hallway making me cringe.

"God another nightmare.."

Its been at least 6, no 5 years now since i tried to kill myself, and 4 since I officially joined the League of Villains. They're villains, yes, but they were a better family than any of my heroes were.
Loud footsteps snapped me out of my trance and i looked up to see short, blond hair tied messily into twin buns. She wore a simple middle school uniform, with a slightly shorter than normal navy skirt. Her cardigain was tied around her waist, and she was fanning herself with a piece of paper, most likely junk mail.

"..oh..OH good MORINING 'ZUKU!" She boomed

"Its not even 6 in the morning.." The taller man grumbled

"Awh dont be a party pooper 'Zuku!" Her buns bounced as she jumped up and down.

Toga Himiko. One of the first members I met. Her quirk is freaky as hell, and saying that shes a psycho bitch is an understatement.

"...what the hell is that....." A deep, unerving voice came out of the other room, "Toga? Stop jumping up and down you lunatic. If any more dust falls from the ceiling of my room, I swear to god i'll rip your blond buns right off your scalp."

With a flick, the room flooded with light. The figure had blue, unkept hair, and his face was......not taken care of to say the least.

Tomura Shigiraki. The name registered in my head. Hes sort of the mastermind? Well I wouldnt call him that, but he definatl-

"Izuku." My head snapped to the source of the voice, "You're mumbling."

"Ah- oh sorry Tomura-san.." The baby blue strands jumped and he snorted

"You're part of the biggest villain organizations in Japan, and youre using your honorifics?" He was interuppted by another chuckle, "You're too nice for your own good."

"S-"

Bright yellow irises then came into view. "Dont you dare apologize again." She started, shoving her hot pink lolipop in my face. "Anyway, im bored shiggy, do we have a place to rob or something? We could pay a visit to UA again?"

I shivered.

We infiltrated UA about 4 years ago. I was too weak to help them, so I stayed behind. Then at the USJ I had become a little better, but it all went out the window when they brought kacchan here with them.
I had to stay in my room for weeks on end. What would he say if he saw me here? Kacchan thinks im jumped off a roof in middle school.

"......namight saves yet another disaster! Here what he has to say abo-"

Speak of the devil.

"Turn that shit off." I growled.

"We could get some good info-"

"...fucking...Turn it OFF." I yelled, getting up to leave.

"Who pissed in his cereal..." Shigiraki started, earning a few giggles.

"'Zuku has a badddd relashionship witht that Dynamight guy." Toga started, "He was the boy who made him jump off when he was little." She took a long drag of her lollipop before jumping on the table

"How the hell do you know that?"

"He told me!" She giggled, swinging her legs back and forth, "When we used to play with him." Her eyes turned dark and she smiled slyly.

Played.

"I'll tell you everything."

I was gonna take a nap before Kurogiri came in.

"Izuku-"

"AH-" I jumped and my neck snapped to the door, "Holy shit Kurogiri, have you heard of knocking? You scared me.." I put my hand on my heart attempting to slow down my breathing

"Tomura wants everyone in the main area." He said blankly before walking out.

"..son of a..."

I ripped the sheets off me and hastily got up, walking to the door before cringing. The smell of alchohol was so heave it went through the door. ...Not a good sign.
I took a spare towel and wet it in the sink before covering my nose and mouth with it to block the smell.

"Shigiraki what the hell? Stop drink...ing.." I stopped right in my tracks

In the main room Toga was sitting next to Shigiraki, and Kurogiri setting down a huge map on the table.

"Izuku! We need you!" Shigiraki patted the spot next to him.

"Whats going on?"

"We found a mission....and you're going to be extremely essential for it." Shigiraki's eyes went dim and his smile went dark. "Very..essential."

My head flooded with the feeling that something wasn't right.

I shivered.
