You settle onto the warm, golden sand of the beach, letting the sun's gentle heat soak into your skin. Around you, the lively crowd basks in the perfect summer day—children laughing as they build sandcastles, couples strolling along the shore, surfers riding the rolling waves. You glance up, taking it all in, and think quietly, There are so many people here, all lost in the simple joy of sun and surf.

But that peaceful moment shatters without warning. The earth beneath you trembles violently, the sand shifting like a warning drumbeat. You freeze, eyes darting toward the ocean, where the water begins to churn and swell unnaturally, rising with a slow, dreadful power.

Suddenly, with a deafening crash, a colossal figure bursts from the depths—a towering mermaid, but not the graceful kind of legend. This is Deku, transformed into a monstrous titan, his shimmering emerald-green scales catching the sunlight and reflecting it in eerie, fractured patterns. His massive tail lashes violently, sending torrents of seawater spraying over the beach. His eyes blaze with a cold fury, and his laughter—deep, twisted, and menacing—rolls across the air like thunder, piercing the cheerful noise of the crowd.

Without hesitation, Izuku's rage explodes. He stomps toward the shoreline, fists smashing into buildings, sending plumes of dust and debris into the sky. Cries of panic erupt as people scatter in every direction. Houses tremble and splinter beneath his wrathful blows, trees are uprooted, and vehicles are tossed aside like toys. His every step shakes the earth as he searches frantically—hungrily—for you, his wild gaze scanning the chaos he’s unleashed.

Your heart pounds in your chest as you realize there’s nowhere left to hide.
