The gas canister hissed softly as Nagisa released a controlled burst of the gas mixture into the hallway. Kaminari and Tokoyami's eyes drooped, and they slumped into an unexpected nap right then and there. His pulse quickened as he realized he had to act fast to cover his tracks.
Alright, he thought, remove any incriminating evidence, move the bodies, and get changed back.
What am I doing with my life...
He adjusted their positions, making it look like they'd fallen asleep watching a movie. After wiping down the canister and stashing it back in his bag, he bolted back to his room.Once inside, Nagisa's heart pounded as he thought about what he'd just done. He quickly texted Kayano:
Nagisa: Hey, Kayano...
Kayano: Hey, Nagisa! What's up?
Kayano: ...Wait, I NEVER CHANGED YOU BACK.
Nagisa: Yeah... I kinda forgot to ask.
Kayano: No, no, it's okay! I should've reminded you, haha.
Nagisa: Yeaaaah, I'm kinda in a situation.
Kayano: Okay. Can you sneak out? I'll meet you outside in 20.
Nagisa: Yep! Thanks so much.
Without further confirmation, he made his way outside to a camera blind spot, where Kayano materialized from the shadows. "Kayano to the rescue!" she whispered with a mischievous grin."Yeah, and make it quick," he replied, still on edge. The transformation was swift, and within moments, he looked like good ol' Izuku Midoriya again.
"Stay out of trouble, Nagisa," she teased before disappearing back into the shadows.
He nodded, grateful, and slipped back to his room just as the cameras resumed. The whole thing had been a close call, and as he settled in, he couldn't help but shiver at how narrowly he'd escaped. He started getting ready for bed, trying to push the past hour from his mind.
I really hope Kami and Tokoyami forget about tonight, he thought. They'd seemed exhausted, so maybe they wouldn't remember.
After brushing his teeth—and hiding the dress Karma and Rio had packed for him in the closet—he went over the night in his mind, realizing there was still camera footage of his little "squabble."
"Hey, Ritsuuuu?" he whispered, hoping she was awake.
"What's up, Nagisa?" she replied, her voice drowsy but clear. Thank the stars, he thought.
"You know that camera footage of the past hour...?"
"Nagisa, it's literally 2 a.m. What did you do...?"
"Nothing big, just had to make some classmates unconscious, that's all!"
"This is stressful. You guys stress me out," she muttered.
"Sorryyy..."
"Nah, it's okay. I was bored watching TV anyway."
A few minutes later, Ritsu gave him a thumbs up and told him to get to bed. As he lay down, he found himself missing his bed back home, but sleep quickly overtook him.
Tomorrow, he thought as he drifted off, I'll have plenty of lying and excuse-making to do. And Itona and Okuda are coming...
He fell asleep like any completely normal person who was not an assassin, unaware that someone might have heard him sneaking back in.---
