Explosions and echoes

Xiomara and Katsuki Bakugo were inseparable once raised side by side, bound by their mothers' friendship and a childhood that felt unbreakable. But everything changed the moment he got his quirk. His ego grew, his words got harsher, and somewhere along the way... he left her behind.

Years later, Xiomara returns different. Quieter. Stronger. Colder.

Now a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High, she keeps her distance, her past buried beneath sharp control and relentless training. No one knows what she's been through. No one knows what she's lost.

Not even him.

But when a villain attack turns deadly and Xiomara is pushed to the brink of death everything changes. Secrets unravel. Emotions explode. And the boy who once drifted away is forced to face the one person he never truly let go of.

As she fights between life and death, Bakugo is left with something far more terrifying than any enemy

Regret.

And the possibility that he might lose her... before he ever gets the chance to make things right.

"She said she wouldn't fall behind."
Now the question is will she survive long enough to prove it?
