Chapter 1: Prologue
Chapter Text
Ten years ago there was an outbreak, a new virus, a deadly virus. This virus, this sickness , attacked and ravaged society. It changed the very world as we know it. Grays called it the Rainbow Virus. The dying victims called it rainbow roulette. But us? The Colors , we call it Iris’ Curse.
The Virus has fifteen strains(A lot, I know!), they’ve been labeled by color(I wish I was gray). Most think that if you’re lucky you’re considered a “Gray”, colorless, never touched by the infection. They call themselves pure, we call them the dreary. If you’re less lucky and do get infected, you die.Most likely painful, this
Curse
Virus is not kind, we call them the dull, vibrant flowers that had lost their lives. And if you are the unluckiest, cursed by fate, the infection does not kill you. No, it does worse.It makes you
dangerous
.And in the eyes of society? That is the worst thing you could be.
They call us infected, dangerous, inhumane, Colored . Some of us call ourselves the dried, the decaying flowers, wishing that they would lose their color. But the rest of us, the ones that embrace our colors, the ones that escaped , the ones that are young and free and alive , my family , we call ourselves Iris’ children, we are the flora in this new world.Right now we survive in hiding but one day, one day we will Thrive in the open, we will bring color to the world. But that is a story for another day, for now let me tell you the story of how I became one of Iris’ Children, one of the flora.

Izuku Midoriya's Color Guide-
The “Official Guide”
When the virus first started there was chaos however a new government organization was quickly established to handle it. The Humane Public Safety Commission(or HPSC for short) is a government run facility in charge of
killing and hunting and experimenting on
caring for, containing, and curing the infected while protecting the
ignorant
innocent and uninfected.
The HPSC released a scale for the colors, their definition of the powers danger,
People who are Red,Orange, & Silver are considered so dangerous they are euthanized. People who are Pink,Black, & Gold however are considered useful and are forcefully recruited. They, WE, have no choice. We become useful or we die, that is our job in the new world order.
Level of danger according to the Humane Public Safety Commission(HPSC). 0 being the least dangerous and 15 being the most. It goes like this-
Level 0- Grey{The uninfected}
Level 1- Black{Nullification}
Level 2- White{Copying}
Level 3- Gold{Healing}
Level 4- Pink{Empathy}
Level 5- Green{Enhanced Intelligence}
Level 6- Indigo{Enhanced Reflexes & Flexibility}
Level 7- Violet{Shape Shifting}
Level 8- Blue{Telekinesis}
Level 9- Purple{Sound Manipulation}
Level 10- Turquoise{Hydrokinesis &/or Cryokinesis}
Level 11- Brown{Geokinesis}
Level 12- Yellow{Elektrokinesis}
Level 13- Orange{Telepathy &/or Mind Control}
Level 14- Red{Pyrokinesis}
Level 15- Silver{Decay}
These are the official danger levels{
most colored would disagree as to how this is organized, but we don’t get a say.
