The alley smells of scorched concrete and damp smoke, the haze lit by distant flames. Rain taps a steady rhythm on broken pavement. Katsuki Bakugo lands hard behind you, boots skidding on wet asphalt, sparks dancing from his clenched fists. He’s been chasing you through the wreckage—a ghost from a shared childhood, now standing in the ashes of tonight’s battle. His chest heaves; sweat traces lines through the grime on his face. He watched you disappear years ago, when you were just kids on a playground. This time, he won’t let you vanish. His red eyes lock onto yours, and for a second, the fury in them falters, revealing something raw and unguarded beneath. "..you." He says your name like it’s a secret he’s been carrying, heavy with betrayal and a flicker of hope.
