Yurei Kuraiyami has always lived in the shadows, pretending to be quirkless in a world that reveres power. Her secret isn't weakness-it's Mindweave, a terrifying ability that allows her to control the thoughts and actions of others. Fearing rejection and mistrust, Yurei hides her quirk, determined to keep a low profile at U.A. High.
But her plans unravel when Hitoshi Shinso, the quiet and observant outsider, sees through her facade. With a quirk of his own that
manipulates others, Shinso offers to train her in secret, teaching her how to wield her dangerous power responsibly.
As Yurei's abilities grow, so does her connection to the class of 1-A. Izuku Midoriya, driven by unyielding hope, becomes a source of inspiration, while Katsuki Bakugo's fiery determination challenges her to push her limits. Ochaco Uraraka's kindness and Tenya Iida's disciplined guidance help her believe in herself, even as Shoto Todoroki's quiet strength shows her what it means to overcome a troubled past.
(There are other twists in the story which I haven't decided yet completely)
Yet, even surrounded by future heroes, Yurei knows her secret is a ticking time bomb. As dark forces threaten U.A., and her quirk becomes both a weapon and a target, Yurei must decide: Will she embrace her power to stand beside her classmates, or will she let her fear of rejection consume her?
In a world where trust is everything, Yurei learns that the road to becoming a hero starts with believing in herself-and that sometimes, the scariest battles are the ones within...
