From the Ashes

Two years have passed since Y/N L/N was declared dead.

While her former classmates mourned her and continued their education at U.A., the world was told that the mysterious pro hero Phoenix remained overseas on a classified mission. Neither story was true.

After escaping six months of imprisonment inside the facility that stole her childhood, Y/N disappears into Japan's criminal underworld. Living alone in a deteriorating apartment and hiding behind masks, false names, and abandoned safe houses, she spends the next two years dismantling the network responsible for abducting children and transforming them into weapons. Every stolen file, destroyed laboratory, and rescued child brings her closer to exposing the Hero Public Safety Commission-and the people who created Phoenix.

But the conspiracy extends far beyond one building. Scientists, heroes, police officers, and government officials have spent decades protecting the facility's secrets. As Y/N uncovers evidence of hundreds of missing children, she realizes that destroying the organization may require her to become the weapon they always intended her to be.

Meanwhile, Class 1-A has entered its third year at U.A. They have grown stronger, earned their licenses, and begun preparing for their futures as professional heroes, but Y/N's death continues to haunt them. Aizawa has never forgiven himself for failing to protect his student. Mina still grieves the best friend she could not save. And Katsuki Bakugo has never fully believed the story they were given.

To destroy the facility, Y/N must choose between disappearing forever or
