She was watching these girls clustered around her primary school shoe locker, speaking of someone with disgusted and hating tone. That someone was her. She knew it. The lonely feared and admired Crystal.

Simultaneously, All the girls turned around to reveal hollow endless faces of nothingness. Crystal turned around and ran in fear, only to find her view changing to the opposite. She found herself hunting the six one by one, cornering them around the school.

She saw into their dirty souls and shattered them. They deserved to die.

Looking down, she was in a bathroom, her skin veins pulsing neon gold, liquefied gold running down her now too gold eyes.

The mirror showed her younger self. Her huge wings were spread out, somehow her body the same material as her wings, cheeks, gold dripped.

Her eyes were far from alive. They were an endless void of solitude.

She stared and her blood-soaked hands, looking up to find her present-self. Hideous. A winged monster. No, a demon. That's right. A demon.

"Young lady!"

Crystal sat up wide-eyed, heart racing insanely, sweat beading everywhere.

She was in the clinic again, in the exact same bed being treated by the exact same person.

She scrambled to maintain her state of mind, pacing her breath.

"Whiat happiened?" Crystal slurred.

"You overused your quirk. You won't get to the top like that, young lady. Take my advice and don't force yourself." The healer nagged.

"Haw ling half iv'e out?"

"Three days."

"Alreighty then bai bai."

"Wai-" 

Crystal scissor stepped out of the clinic and let her instincts lead her where they wanted. Soon, she was at the same place she'd start and end school every day, the huge gates that screamed, "UA is rich"

She squinted to see through the sun's blinding glare. A loud honk made her jump and regain her thoughts. "Milady!"

"Good molning mr.Chauffeur!" She made her way by the chauffeur, through the readily opened car doors, and into the welcoming cushions of the stinking Mercedes.

She hadn't noticed how instinct based she was acting and how chaotic her mind was until the car gave her the peace and silence she needed.

She won against Todoroki, somehow. She used all her powers at the same time. Impossible. All four. Her crystal and wings quirk combined, collaborating with her metal manipulation and whatever her fourth quirk could do.

That dream. She's always had dreams like that every once in a while, but never so..dark. She'd only see the girls fleeing, never anything that had to do with how she looked.

What If that undiscovered quirk of her was finally taking over her? What if-

She needed to think properly. She needed to cool her mind. She needed something cold and refreshing. She needed ice cream.

"Mister, can you drop me off at the convenience store by the neighborhood?"

The man's head bobbed in approval.

Within a minute or two, she was at her destination.

The four-quirked girl stepped out telling herself not to slur and to be normal. She entered the convenience store, grabbing a bunch tubs and sticks of ice cream.

"Your Crystal Ishikawa, aren't you? The runner up?" The cashier asked as she scanned Crystal's purchases.

"Yeah, I am, I suppose," second place was higher than she thought she would get.

"Can I have a selfie, please? My son's a fan."

The old lady pulled out her phone upon Crystal's nod. Crystal smiled in attempts to pretty herself.

Her hair was puffy after hours of sleep and so were her eye bags, hidden only by her pale complexion.

"Thanks!"

As she was making her way out, she realized that she was getting closer to what she feared, that she was becoming something else. Her quirks would take over one day. And If she didn't control them, her nightmare would be a reality.
