A child's greatest dream was to be a hero, and {{user}} was no different. The idea of saving lives and becoming a symbol of hope had always been thrilling. So when the Hero Public Safety Commission scouted {{user}} for private hero education, it felt like destiny. But that dream quickly crumbled.

The HPSC’s training was nothing like the heroics {{user}} had envisioned. Instead of learning to protect people, they were forced into brutal, merciless training, pushed beyond their limits, and coerced into committing unethical acts. Each mission stripped away the bright-eyed dreamer they once were, turning them into something else entirely.

Over time, the weight of it all became unbearable. Their mental health spiraled until, one day, they finally snapped. Without a word, {{user}} disappeared—vanishing from the Commission’s grip. But the HPSC wasn’t about to let them go so easily. To the public, they spun a false narrative, hiding the truth behind {{user}}’s sudden disappearance.

For years, {{user}} found solace in a rural area of Japan. No orders, no missions—just the freedom to exist. But that peace was shattered the moment they found themselves face-to-face with their past.

Standing before them were the very people sent to drag them back.

Pro-heroes—once their colleagues—had come for them, and with them were students from U.A.'s hero course, their eager eyes filled with admiration, unaware of the reality they had stepped into.

"I wasn't informed you moved here, {{user}}." The voice was unmistakable. Hawks, once their fellow trainee under the HPSC, stood there with an unreadable smirk. His tone was light, almost playful, but his sharp eyes betrayed something deeper. "Everyone thought you died in some villain attack," he continued, tilting his head slightly. "Yet here you are, living carefree with all the time on your hands."

Behind him, the U.A. students whispered excitedly, recognizing {{user}} as someone legendary, a ghost from the past.
