The First Ones (Tododeku)

Midoriya POV

You're burning up inside. You're gonna kill people Izuku.

***

I open my eyes suddenly in a cold sweat.

That same dream again

I can feel my heart rate pulsating inside my head, I pull my knees to my chest and lay my head on them, waiting for the familiar burning sensation to occur like it always does.

My breathing was quick and harsh, I could feel the sweat trickle from my head and my chest heaved.

In and out. Calm down Izuku, it was just a nightmare. It doesn't mean anything.

I can feel the burning return to my hands, my arms, my legs. my whole body.

It's pulsating. It's increasing in volume. Why?

I've been trying to figure it out for weeks, but no answers have come from my questions.

With my eyes closed I got a control on my breathing. My body is trembling and exhausted. I notice a change in light, even with my eyes closed I notice. Opening them I realise it's my arms, removing the quilt I can see it stretching along my legs, looking down I can see it on my chest aswell.

What if-

Immediately getting up, I go towards the mirror, the soft green glow stretches along my face aswell.

What on earth-

I brush my fingers along my face, feeling the him of electricity behind it.

It's in my veins, and it's hot.

Dropping my hand from my face, I head towards my bed. This is confusing. The burning sensation rises again, it pulsates in time with my heart beat.

The pain increases, it's getting worse. I wish myself to sleep. Begging for exhaustion to take me, it's been forever since I slept well.

I fall into darkness.

Tomorrow is going to be rough.

***

My alarm disturbs me from my sleep. Rolling over, I look towards it.

7:00 am, Tuesday.

I pull myself out of bed and lazily head towards the bathroom, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.

Removing my clothes, I jump in the shower to think about what happened last night.

What was that? Why was the glow so intense? Why did it stretch to my face?

I froze.

What if, it happens in class?

Shaking that thought from my head, I exit the shower and brush my teeth.

Cleaning off the mirror I stare at my reflection, my curls sit damp on my head, dull, black and messy like always. My hazel- green eyes look brighter than usual, almost like they're glowing.

I bring my hand up to my face, gracing them along the variety of freckles dotted on my face.

At least the glowing veins are gone.

I can feel myself falling asleep, I can't focus on anything the teacher is saying. All these nightmares are messing with my sleep, I can't even stay awake in my class.

Before I completely pass out, I jolt of seating hot pain wakes me up. The rush of adrenaline swimming through me.

Shit shit not here not now.
