L/N F/N's POV

Y/N studied the extravagant wooden floorboards at their feet, following the light hazel grains with their eyes. They admired the way one line flowed into another, and how the soothing hues of brown whorled and mixed together, frozen in an eternal dance.

When a male voice cleared its throat awkwardly, they shifted their gaze upwards out the corner of their eye.

Pinpointing that focus on the gaping window now, they observed the intricately hand carved frame before turning a studious and critical look out of its glass.

Behind the translucent panel was a clear blue sky, and Y/N surveyed the drop from this something-story window down to the tree lined walkways far below.

In other words, they looked anywhere but at either the freckled boy positioned by her side or the blonde haired one in front.

"Ground Zero, Midoriya, L/N. I think you three already know what we've brought you here to discuss."

Finally gritting their teeth and breaking their staring contest with the pot plant on the floor, Y/N slowly but steadily brought themself to look up.

Their teachers Nezu, Aizawa and All Might stood sternly on one side of a table. The room they were in was pretty plain, with mostly security cameras for décor, but still fancy by Y/N's standards.

To their left was their long term childhood friend Midoriya Izuku, and across from the pair sat the newly captured Villain Ground Zero. In the middle but positioned off to the side, away from the centre of attention, was a grand oak desk.

Behind this table sat three Heroes, the one who spoke having been Y/N's homeroom teacher Aizawa-Sensei, otherwise known as the Pro 'Eraserhead.'

"Thanks to you having such a stubborn clutch on your personal information, Ground Zero, us Heroes have been left in the dark with your identity. Because of this, we've had to do our own digging around."

Aizawa gave Izuku an odd look.

"We were recently provided with a witness who shall remain unnamed for what it's worth, giving us a nudge in one direction. However, after we analysed the results for the tests you were put through yesterday afternoon Ground Zero, we've proved that this push did indeed lead us in the right direction."

Though Y/N had still not dared to look at him directly, they noticed Ground Zero stiffen ever so slightly in their peripheral vision.

"Studies have provided us with a direct match to another boy's files. Age, looks, blood type, attitude, abilities; everything aligns from you to him."

Addressing the Villain himself now, Aizawa turned his piercing look from Izuku and Y/N to Ground Zero.

"Which leads us to believe that you are in fact Bakugou Katsuki, son of Bakugou Mitsuki and Masaru."

This time, Y/N did look up. Thankfully, the boy's gaze was no longer on them or Izuku, but rather the teacher.

Ground Zero's shoulders were tense, brows knotted into a scowl, lips pulled back in a white toothed snarl, and slit eyed glare fixated on Eraserhead. 

He said nothing, but that didn't necessarily do anyone any favours. Especially not the tension filled silence, now thick enough to slice with a blunt butter knife.

"This would leave you at age sixteen, with a Quirk named 'Explosion,' and a tombstone dating back to April 20th, just over a decade ago."
