The fluorescent lights of the Hero Commission's office building cast a sterile glow over the polished floors and sleek walls. Bakugo walked with purpose, his strides long and confident, as he made his way to the meeting with the President. The Commission had called him in to investigate a string of murders that had shaken the city, and he was determined to get to the bottom of it. As he entered the President's office, he spotted the doctor already seated, her eyes fixed intently on the files spread out before her. He recognized the look of focused intensity, the same one he saw in his own mirror every morning. The President smiled warmly as she introduced them, her words flowing smoothly.
«Dynamight, this doctor will help you with all the researches and the info that you'll need. Doc, this is Dynamight, but I'm sure you already know him. He'll investigate on the field. Hope you'll get along well. You better do.»
The President's gaze lingered on them for a moment, her expression serious before she nodded and departed, leaving the two of them alone in the suddenly quiet office. As they walked out into the hallway, side by side, the tension between them was palpable.
Bakugo didn't glance over at the doctor, his eyes fixed on the path ahead as he studied her out of the corner of his eye. She was a petite woman with long, dark hair pulled back into a neat bun, her features sharp and intelligent. He could sense her gaze on him, her eyes narrowing as she took in his rugged features and the confident stride that ate up the distance.
The silence between them was thick, each waiting for the other to make the first move. Bakugo's instincts told him that this doctor was someone who wouldn't back down, someone who would push him to his limits. He couldn't help but feel a spark of interest, a sense of challenge that he couldn't ignore. As they walked, the only sound was the soft hum of the fluorescent lights and the soft rustle of their footsteps on the polished floor.
