[Jirou's room, 2:00 am] 

Her last memory before falling asleep was her on her phone showing memes and reels to Kaminari. But nothing else, she was in a deep sleep but something was wrong, she started sweating and moving in her sleep. She was having another nightmare, but this one was strong.

Jirou: Mmmm...no- The nightmare was so strong she started talking in her sleep.

Jirou: No...leave...leave him alone...

What was she dreaming about?

Jirou: No...please...no....- She continued, she was already in a pool of sweat, the sheets all over the place, and one of her pillows was on the ground...

Suddenly, her brain turned on rapidly. She opened her eyes aggressively, but something was wrong. She could tell the layout of the room in the darkness, but she was a little disoriented. She didn't know if she was still sleeping or awake, the only thing she knew was that she was having a nightmare, a horrible one.

But the worst was yet to come. Her mind was already awake, her heart racing like crazy, but her body was numb and didn't respond, she tried moving her arms and legs but nothing happened.

-W-what...I can't move...- She thought, realizing her body was still asleep, not synchronized with her mind. But things just escalated from worst to hell. Her room was dark but there was something in there, something she could see. A big, tall silhouette was in the corner of the room in front of her. She couldn't tell if that thing had eyes but she knew it was looking at her. It was a villain? a monster? a demon from hell? Whatever the fuck it was, it started getting closer to her slowly. 

She started to freak out, like freaking the fuck out. The closer the creature was, the scarier it got. Suddenly a stranger figure started to reach for her, they were like tentacles with mouths and teeth, was it him? All for One? But he is dead, right? It was no doubt, those tentacles with teeth were the ones All for One had, the ones that mutilated her.

She could feel the gross skin of the tentacles looming over her body, getting closer and closer to her face. It was a sight of nightmares, a living hell. She wanted to scream but she couldn't, no matter how hard she tried, her body was like she was already dead, devoid of all life. Finally one of the tentacles launched straight to her left ear, and in that moment, her body finally responded. Maybe it was like a natural response, the primal survival instinct answering.

Jirou: N-No...GET AWAY FROM ME.- She screamed, waking up.

She stood up on her bed, hyperventilating, touching her left ear with her left hand. There was nothing in her room. Was it an illusion? A villain's quirk? Was he really here? She decided it was just hallucinations product of her intense nightmare. But she never experienced something like this before. Still, she had a panic attack and could feel her heart was about to explode. Without thinking she grabbed something from her bed, opened the door, and started running uncontrollably towards a specific door.
