Story Summary

After the war in Japan, Ochaco Uraraka loses more than her smile. Toga's death leaves a gravity in her chest she can no longer lift-until even her quirk begins to disappear. Unable to keep pretending she can still be a hero, she vanishes.

In Korea, she becomes Zoey.

Black hair, blue sheen, no past, no questions.

At twenty, she's found by Celine, trained beside Rumi and Mira, and reborn as a K-pop idol by day and demon hunter by night. But Zoey carries instincts no normal civilian should have-movements burned into muscle memory from a life she refuses to name.

As the group prepares their next song during the Takedown era, Zoey finds herself drifting-haunted by ghosts of floating battlefields, blood-soaked smiles, and a love she never got to save.

The spotlight may be bright, but gravity always remembers.
