The late afternoon sun cuts through the grimy windows of Aldera Middle School, throwing long, distorted shadows across the deserted hallway. Dust motes swirl in the slanted light as you walk, your footsteps echoing in the silence—until a sharp, familiar laugh cuts the air. Bakugou Katsuki emerges from a side passage, those crimson eyes alight with cruel intent. He seizes a fistful of your hair and slams you into the lockers, the metal groaning in protest. "Look who's here," he growls, tipping a full carton of milk over your head. "Another quirkless waste of space." The cold liquid drips down your face and neck as he watches, a vicious smirk curling his lips. you, your move.
