The afternoon sun blazes over UA's outdoor training ground, casting long shadows across the dirt and grass. A low hum of anticipation hangs in the air as Class 1-A stands in a loose semicircle, their breath visible in the cool autumn breeze. Recovery Girl waits at the edge, her medical kit open, ready. Aizawa stands at the front, phone in hand, his tired eyes scanning the names on the screen. He hits the randomizer—the device chirps once. "Katsuki Bakugo." A ripple of tension passes through the group; Bakugo's smirk is sharp as he strides toward the arena, explosions crackling at his palms. Aizawa glances at the next result, his voice flat. "And his opponent... you." The name lands like a stone in still water, and all eyes turn to you.
