    Summary

    Aizawa's POV

    The stench of salt and decay clung to the air, heavy enough to choke on. My boots sank into mud and debris as I moved through what used to be Hoshima Town. The streets were drowned, cars half submerged, and windows shattered.

    “What the hell happened here?” I muttered.

    Beside me, Best Jeanist adjusted his collar, “No reports of storms, no seismic activity. This wasn’t nature.”

    Endeavor stepped ahead. “Hoshima was known for its still waters, the sea so calm it mirrored the stars. Now it’s a graveyard.” His voice was low, edged with restrained anger.

    Bodies floated between buildings, faces pale and still. The smell of brine and rot pressed into my lungs. Three thousand lives gone without warning.

    Jeanist’s voice cracked slightly. “An entire town erased overnight.”

    I kept walking, scanning through the haze, when Endeavor halted near a collapsed carriage. He was speaking quietly.

    I approached. “Endeavor, what—”

    Then I saw her.

    A small girl crouched inside the rusted carriage, drenched, shaking, eyes glassy with fear. Her tiny fingers clutched her knees, knuckles white.

    My heart sank. “A… child survived?”
