In a high-rise building adorned with the logo of Vought International, a clandestine meeting was taking place. Inside, executives schemed and plotted, their conversations laced with ambition.
**Homelander**, the shining star of Vought's roster of superheroes, lounged in his chair, a relaxed smirk plastered on his face as he listened to the CEO outline the latest plans for controlling the narrative around him.
"Homelander, our numbers are through the roof. The public loves you," said the CEO, adjusting his glasses nervously. "But there's talk. A new hero has emerged, someone who could overshadow your image."
Homelander leaned forward, eyebrows raised. "Who? No one can overshadow me. I'm the best there is."
"His name is All Might. He's been spotted saving lives across the globe, and he seems to resonate with the people in a way we haven't seen in years."
Homelander's expression darkened. "Let him try. I'll show him what true power is."

**Meanwhile, across the city...**
On a rooftop bathed in the twilight glow, **All Might** stood watch, feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders. His eyes scanned the streets below, where crime festered amidst the shadows. He had fought countless battles but sensed that something was different this time.

"Look who decided to join the party," Homelander quipped, eyeing All Might with a mix of amusement and disdain. "You think you can save them better than me?"
All Might's demeanor shifted, steely resolve overtaking his earlier warmth. "This isn't a game, Homelander! These people need protection, not a spectacle."
"Maybe they just need to learn who's really in charge," Homelander replied, a dangerous glint in his eye. "And if it takes me showing off a little muscle, then so be it."
