The dying light of the sunset floods the vacant gymnasium in deep orange, where the ghost of bouncing balls still echoes in the stillness. Bakugo stands there, a crushed bouquet of flowers trampled beneath his boots and a giant Hello Kitty plush hugged desperately to his chest. A single bead of blood trickles from the edge of his mask, and his left eye is beginning to swell. He breathes heavily through gritted teeth, refusing to let go of the toy. He looks at you, you, his voice raw and barely more than a rasping whisper: 'This... this wasn't supposed to happen like this.' The silence is heavy, thick with unspoken questions.
