Izuku woke up to a tingly sort of feeling, filling his whole body. It was like a sort of numbness, or how it felt when your foot would fall asleep. He couldn't feel anything else.

Izuku was smart enough too know that this feeling was not normal. He was still able to move, luckily. He decided to go to the bathroom, and then he'd tell his mom about it.

When he got to the bathroom, he passed by the mirror, and caught a glance at his reflection. Bright green hair and eyes were the first things he noticed. He was about to brush it off as colors seeming brighter today; he had dyed his tips green, and his eyes were a sort of blue green color, but then he realized something very off.

All of his hair looked green, not just the tips. And, his eyes usually were only tinted green, not full on bright green. Where have I heard of this before...?

It was something to do with those aliens, right?

The second that thought came to his head, he forgot all about telling his mom about his situation, and found himself running to his room. When he got there, he rushed right over to his bookshelf. It has to be here somewhere... Eventually, he found what he was looking for, and threw the book onto his bed.

It was a handbook passed out by his school, about how to identify and handle alien attacks. He flipped through the pages, looking for anything on color changing hair and/ or eyes.

"Transformation Virus"

"The transformation virus infects a person through injection, and is not contaminatable. The virus can be identified by a tingling sensation throughout the body. If identified before the first stage, it can be cured."

"First Stage"

"The first stage of the transformation changes the victim's hair and eye color to a vibrant and unnatural color. If a victim has hair dye, the virus tends to color based on the hair color. If not, it bases the color on personality. This signifies that a person's DNA has been changed to alien DNA, and the full transformation is beginning. "

"Second Stage"

"At this point, the victim begins to grow antenna. They tend to start out as skin colored bumps on the forehead, and when fully grown, the tips change color based on emotion. The victim's sclerea also tends to change color during this phase. Most common colors are yellow, lime green, or bronze."

"Third Phase"

"This phase is the main part of the transformation, which causes the victim's entire body to change, sometimes changing the body structure as a whole. So far, there doesn't seem to be any sort of pattern, and the mutations are different for each case."

"Final Phase"

"When the physical transformation is completed, victims report that their senses are different from before. These changes go from enhanced senses, to ultraviolet vision. Again, this phase varies from case to case"

"How to handle a victim"

"So far, no victims have survived long enough for us to learn how to deal with them. All of them have ended their lives, in fear of being a danger to loved ones. So, try to cure the virus before the transformation begins"

Although he didn't actually get alot of information, it was enough. He backed away from the handbook, placed a bookmark on the page, closed the book, and picked it up. Then, he headed for the living room, knowing that his mom would be there by now.
