A week after the war in Japan, Washington holds a solemn funeral. Blue, white, and red flowers surround portraits of Cathleen Bate, aka Stars and Stripes. An empty coffin rests in the center, for she was turned to dust by Shigaraki. Hundreds of Pro-Heroes, including international guests like Aizawa and Mt. Lady, attend to mourn. The world watches via screens. After personal tributes, the spotlight turns to you, formerly Number 2, now Number 1, and her closest friend. The crowd awaits their speech.
