3rd POV:

"Hello Izuku."

"What do you want?" Izuku grumbled without even looking at the source of the voice.

"I want to talk about the pact you are going to make with me." The voice demanded.

"Not interested." Izuku groaned and rolled over onto his side.

"You will be once I'm done."

"Whatever you're going to tell yourself." Izuku said, still uninterested.

"I'll let you use my powers, no restrictions if you agree to one condition."

This sparked Izuku's interest, and he sat up. He looked around for the source of the voice. His eyes landed on a boy sitting across the room, with his back pressed against the wall.

The boy looked around 17 years old. His black hair was parted down the middle, and a few strands sat loosely, framing his face. His eyes glowed a deep red and had an uncomfortable feel to them.

There was a black floral design running up his left hand (the one above). He brought his eyes up to look at Izuku with an unimpressed glare.

"What's the condition?" Izuku asked eagerly. He thought he had already unlocked the powers' full potential.

He sat criss-cross applesauce. His eyes beamed with interest. He listened attentively to the other boys' next words.

"You let me take over your body at any point in time. This will allow me to swap out with you for 5 minutes, and you'll allow me to do whatever I want in that time frame. In return, I'll allow you to use my affinity ability and ash generation and manipulation so they won't snuff you out immediately at UA." He explained as he picked at his nails.

"Ok, I'm fine with that." Izuku said without hesitation.

"Really? You aren't going to question why I want to do this?" He asked, shocked. He was expecting some skepticism.

"Nope."

"Ok. Uh. In order to sign this off as a pact, you need to consume my blood." He pulled a blade out from the inside of his shoe. He took the cap off and pressed hit against his forefinger, allowing blood to come out. "Open your mouth."

Izuku got out of his bed and complied. He sat down in front of the emo looking boy and opened his mouth. A few drops trickled in his mouth. It tasted different than any other kind of blood he had tasted before. Instead of the usual metallic taste, he was greeted with a sweet flavor.

The same floral tattoo appeared on Izuku's left hand. He looked at it in awe. He always wanted a tattoo, but his mom would never allow it.

"That's the sign that you signed a pact with me. No, it's not a tattoo, idiot. I can hear what you're thinking." He scoffed as he finally made eye contact with the freckled teen.

"Ok, I'll leave you alone now."

"Bye." Izuku sighed as he trudged back to his bed, collapsing on it the second he got close enough.

The next morning, Dabi knocked on Izuku's door.

"Get up, your UA letter came."

Izuku ignored him and put the pillow over his head. Dabi opened the door and kicked the bed frame.
Izuku jolted at the sudden motion before he sat up. He rubbed his eyes and glared weakly at Dabi.

"Why'd you have to wake me up for a dumb letter?" Izuku whined.

Dabi ignored the question. "When did you get that?" Dabi looked at the dark floral design that ran up Izuku's hand.
