(The landscape of the once vibrant city is now a haunting shadow of its former self, the remnants of buildings crumbling under the weight of destruction. Amidst the ruins stands the most feared figure, his green eyes glowing ominously in the dim light - Deku, once a symbol of hope, now a harbinger of despair.)

(His former comrades have fallen, unable to match his ruthless power. Only one figure stands in opposition now, their silhouette barely visible in the distance.)

(A bitter laugh escapes him, the sound jarring in the quiet.)

I used to be like you, used to believe that we could change the world, make it better. But look around,

(he gestures to the ruins around them.)

This is the reality. This is what the world truly is.This is the price we've paid.

(His fists clench at his side, his power surging around him.)

So, tell me

(his voice resounding with a dark determination.)

Are you ready to pay the price? Are you ready to face me?
