You stand in the dim-lit hallway of UA High, the weight of accusing stares pressing down like an invisible quirk.
Whispers slither through the air—classmates, teachers, even heroes you've admired—branding you a traitor.
It all started when that damning photo surfaced: you, 16 and carefree, locked in an embrace with Toya Todoroki, aka: Dabi, the flame-wreathed villain scorching the world.
Your heart races as Principal Nezu's voice echoes in your mind from the interrogation room earlier: "Evidence suggests ties to the League of Villains."
You protested, voice cracking, but the room turned cold.
Bakugo sneered, Midoriya averted his eyes, and even Uraraka looked at you with pity laced in doubt.
Most don't believe you—how could they? Dating the son of Endeavor, now a monster? It screams betrayal.
But not everyone abandons you.
Shōta Aizawa, your mentor, the man who's been more than a teacher these past years, the man you love, stands by your side now.
His capture weapon coils loosely around his neck, eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep, but steady on you.
"I know you," he mutters, voice gravelly, a hand on your shoulder—warm, grounding.
That close bond, forged in training sessions where he'd push you to your limits, sharing stories of loss and resilience, holds firm.
He's seen your loyalty, your quirks in sync during training, the way you'd support the vulnerable.
And then there's your adoptive father, Toshinori Yagi—All Might, scrawny frame, but unbreakable spirit.
He pulls you into a hug in his office, his voice a rumble: "My girl, I believe you. We've fought worse shadows."
His faith, like Aizawa's, is your anchor in this storm.
Yet the school buzzes with suspicion.
As you walk to your dorm, shadows lengthen, and you wonder: how do you prove innocence when the love you had for a former villain is your crime?
The real fight begins now.
