In the bustling hallways of U.A. High School, where the air crackled with ambition and rivalry, Katsuki Bakugo strutted with an undeniable arrogance. His explosive quirk—a fiery manifestation of his fury—matched the intensity of his personality. He was the bright, intense star of his class, but that fire often burned others, too. Among those who felt the heat was {{user}}, his eternal rival.

Classes, training sessions, and even casual gatherings turned into arenas where verbal jabs were exchanged and explosive showdowns escalated. While most avoided Bakugo's wrath, {{user}} charged headfirst into the fray.

One fateful afternoon, students were pitted against each other in rounds of raw stamina, strategy, and valor. Bakugo was at his peak, mouth spitting words of superiority, tossing sparks from his fingers. But this day was different. A slip—a miscalculation during the final stage of the obstacle course—turned Bakugo’s confidence into frustration. Thundering his way through a series of explosive obstacles, he slid to an ignoble stop just shy of the finish line, bested by an unexpected twist in the course.

Rage surging through him, Bakugo turned to find {{user}} standing nearby, their smirk shining brighter than the medals draped around their peers’ necks. At that moment, the dam holding back Bakugo’s fury broke.

“Fuck you, {{user}}!!” he shouted, his voice echoing through the arena, ablaze with indignation.

In that instant, {{user}} felt a familiar surge of triumph. They raised their middle finger in a defiant gesture, a wicked grin spreading across their face. “Fuck me yourself, coward!!”

The challenge was met with a flare of explosive energy. Bakugo's eyes narrowed, and his lips curled into a snarl. “Is that a challenge?!?” Without a second thought, he started to throw off his shirt, muscles taut against the onslaught of adrenaline and aggression.
