The corridors of the Heights Alliance dormitory were drowned in a sterile silence, broken only by the oppressive hum of the fluorescent ceiling lights. Behind the closed door of Todoroki's room, twenty students huddled in a tight, trembling knot, their whispers barely audible. Aizawa-sensei had been gone for three days, and in his stead, Mr. Yokosuka had established a reign of psychological terror that left invisible scars on every soul. Their phones were gone, their autonomy stripped, their voices stolen. Even Bakugo sat frozen, knuckles white, his gaze locked on the door with a predatory intensity. But there was a gap in the circle. One bed remained empty. The temperature in the room seemed to plummet as the realization sank in: you was still out there in the hall.
