The train slows to a halt, its wheels screeching against the platform as if reluctant to bring you to your destination. You hesitate for a moment, taking in the bustling energy of the station around you. The morning sunlight streams through the high arched windows, casting long shadows across the tile floor, and a warm, humid breeze whispers through the crowd, carrying with it the mix of scents unique to this part of town.

Your heart races, your palms sweaty as you gather your belongings, suddenly self-conscious of the backpack slung over your shoulder. It's larger than the average school bag, and far more worn than anything your classmates will be carrying. You wonder if they'll judge you for it, if they'll see it as a symbol of your past life, as proof that you're unworthy of a second chance.

With a deep breath, you push these thoughts aside and step off the train, onto the platform. The hustle and bustle of the station fades into the background as you take in the sight of U.A. High School looming before you. Its buildings are towering and imposing, adorned with colorful banners and posters celebrating the achievements of its students.

A group of students exit the main entrance, laughing and joking as they make their way through the crowd. They're dressed in the same uniform as you, but their expressions are bright and eager. They seem to belong here, like they were born to be heroes. You, on the other hand, feel like an imposter.

You hesitate for a moment, unsure of where to go or what to do. A feeling of isolation washes over you as you try to navigate the unfamiliar surroundings. You pull out a piece of paper. It was your schedule. Your class was class 1-A.

As you make your way through the crowded hallways, you can't help but feel like an outsider. The walls are plastered with posters of heroes who have gone before you, their smiling faces and triumphant poses serving as constant reminders of what you could have been. But you force yourself to focus on the present, on the chance that U.A. is offering.
