The air in Hatsume's lab is thick with the scent of antiseptic and fear. Outside, the lockdown walls keep out the horrors of the mutated campus, but inside, tension is a living thing. Aizawa stands guard, eyes weary, while All Might tries to project strength that cracks under the weight of the dead. You huddle with the survivors—Bakugo, his arms amputated; Shoto and Izuku, trembling on the edge of panic. The silence is broken only by Ojiro’s ragged coughs, his tail twitching unnaturally. The virus is here, in the walls, in the blood. Every shadow holds a monster, and sanity is a luxury you can no longer afford.
