"Believe that you'll born with a quirk in your next life
and take a last chance dive off the roof!"

Izuku clenched his fist tightly, his nails were digging to his skin. Tears poured out from his eyes when a certain voice echoed in his mind.

Izuku looked into the pile of notebooks he collected on the floor. One of the notebook was burned into crisped yet waters were dripping from the papers. Izuku's eyes adverted from the notebooks to the view below him.

What will you do if I really did what you say?

Izuku watched his tears falling down from 3 level high building to the ground. The wind blew through, it was rather peaceful for Izuku. No shoutings, no bullies, all he wanted is let the wind to carry him. Somewhere far away from his sadness.

Birds flew through Izuku, their wings flapping as they sore to the sky. The sun started to set, painting the sky into warm yellow orange colour. The view was perfect but it lacks something that suits his emotion right now.

"Tch, stupid book. Now I have to
go to school and get it back."

Katsuki groaned to himself as he walks to school alone but he stops when he stepped into a piece of paper. He picked up the paper then squinted his eyes, it's a quick sketch of drawing about him?

The drawing was familiar to Katsuki, he studied those words next to the drawing before he got distracted by the papers flapping noise. He looked up then he widen his eyes.

Papers flying across the orange sky, a certain boy with green hair allowed the winds to carry him. Izuku open his eyes, watching his notes flying above him as he fell under the red orange sky.

Izuku relaxed himself as the gravity pushed him down to the ground. He felt so free at the moment, Katsuki's advice was probably right. Maybe he should have pray to be born with a quirk in his next life.

I wish to have a quirk in my next life,
a quirk that will leads me to be a no.1 hero.

Izuku thought to himself before he closed his eyes. He catch a one last glimpse of the beautiful warm sky then he never opens them again.

Katsuki felt the time stop when he saw his body falling down. Katsuki glued his foot to the ground, witnessing Izuku embracing his death. Katsuki's tears poured into his cheeks, why? Why did he look so free, released from pain?

Pain? Was it because of me?

Katsuki felt his mind turned blank when he remember what cruel things he said to Izuku. He didn't think the advice he gave would be a comfort to Izuku.

"Deku!"

Katsuki ran towards the school, if he pinpoint the right spot, Izuku must have landed on the pond. Katsuki was shock when he finally arrived.

Some papers rained down at Katsuki and Izuku's now lifeless body. The pond was now tainted with red liquid and papers. Katsuki was shaking, he didn't know what to do especially when he saw the smile on Izuku's face.
