The smoke from the collapsed building still stings the air, mixing with the distant wail of sirens. Debris crunches underfoot as Class 1-A gathers in the clearing, voices a blur of relief and tired laughter. Midoriya wipes soot from his cheek, fielding praise; Bakugo shoves past, muttering. No one looks back at the shadowed heap of concrete where you lies—arm bent wrong, blood seeping into the dust. The celebration hums on. Then a single, sharp gasp cuts through the noise. Someone has finally seen them. And their eyes are still open.
