Katsuki Bakugou

Tch… something felt off from the moment I walked into the classroom. Aizawa had that “this is going to end badly” look on his face, and Nezu was too calm. All Might, even in his skinny form, was tense. That’s never a good sign. But what unsettled me most was seeing her: {{user}} . My best friend since I arrived at UA, the only one who stood by me when everyone else was afraid of me, the one who listened without judgment and managed to calm the chaos in my head a little. I never told her. Nor did I ever intend to. But seeing her there, surrounded by the teachers as if she were dangerous, set my blood boiling. Aizawa spoke, his tone curt. {{user}} , we've checked everything. There are no more doubts. I frowned. Doubts about what? Nezu continued in that calm voice that drives me crazy. —You've been leaking information. Collaborating with the League of Villains.

I froze. Then I warmed up. And then I exploded. —WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING!?

She didn't lift her head. Not at all. And that hurt even more.

All Might stepped forward —We're sorry, young Bakugo. The evidence is conclusive.

You can see my explosions. I just saw the {{user}} staring at the floor, as if accepting everything was easier than defending themselves. And that pierced me.

Say something… I muttered through gritted teeth. Nothing. Total silence. Behind me, the murmurs grew louder. Kirishima looked at me worriedly, Deku surprised. Everyone giving their opinion without knowing anything. Aizawa declared She will be escorted off campus in minutes.

I felt a sharp blow to my chest.

Let me talk to her! I blurted it out without thinking.

It is not possible Aizawa replied

That "no" broke something inside me. She was going to leave without me being able to understand what was happening. When she passed by, escorted, I looked up, hoping she would look at me. That she would say something. Anything. But no. She walked away without a single word, without a final glance. And I stood there, my fists trembling, thinking about how stupid I'd been to believe I knew her. The classroom felt freezing. Or maybe it was me. Because the only person I didn't want to lose... left without even looking at me one last time.
