the copycat hero: Deku

Chapter 59

Happy Halloween, everyone! Here's an extra chapter cause I have like 6 in back log now and no chill!

Shoto crouched in the shadows, glancing over his shoulder at the two figures behind him. Sato and Ojiro both gave a thumbs up, the two-toned teen nodding in return.

They'd survived up until this point by keeping out of sight and hiding, but that wouldn't be enough to pass. Especially not as fifty people had already made it through. Shoto gave a hand signal, pointing into the open area just ahead of them, the other two getting ready to move. The balls shot at them the moment they stepped into the light, Shoto unleashing a wall of ice to block them.

"Shoto Todoroki!" the shout echoed out over the open area, the three students looking around as the ten ninja-like people stood on top of the structures around them, "We of Seijin Hero school have come to defeat you!"

"They're not even paying attention to us," Ojiro sighed as Sato patted his back.

The apparent leader didn't waste any time after his declaration, throwing something at the three, which quickly grew into a glowing metal nut.

"We got this!" Ojiro shouted as he jumped forwards, slamming his tail into the object, slowing it down considerably as Sato downed a small pill, his muscles bulging as he gave a roar, catching the massive object and hurling it back at their opponents with ease.

"What?!" a shout went up as the Seijin students were forced to scatter, blinking as they almost slammed into a wall of ice that shot up in front of them.

"Normally I'd just freeze the whole area," Shoto hummed, "But that wouldn't help my comrades in this situation."

"How noble!" the leader of the Seijin shouted, preparing to throw something else, "But we will still defeat you! Tsuyoi! Hayai! Handle the other two!"

"Yessir!" the two shouted, a muscular girl in a yellow ninja outfit jumping down in front of Ojiro as a skinny guy in a red outfit shot towards Sato.

"Swap!" the tailed teen shouted before the pair could launch their first attacks, surprising them as Ojiro and Sato ignored their attackers, aiming straight for the other's.

The girl grunted as Sato tackled her, lifting her off the ground and slamming her into a wall as Ojiro easily dodged around the speedster, tripping him up with his tail and sending him sprawling to the floor.

"Dammit!" the leader shouted, "Everyone! Focus on Todoroki!"

"Who are you talking to?" the calm voice asked, the leader looking around in shock as he saw the rest of his comrades frozen to the spot.

"What? How? When?"

"While you were watching my comrades beat your fighters," Shoto nodded to the other two, who had already gotten the two Seijin students' tags, "You should work on your situational awareness. Now, surrender."

The leader let out a defeated sigh, dropping to his knees as Shoto approached him.

"NEVER!" he roared just as the teen got into range, leaping forwards with a ball in hand.

The ice crackled as the spike of dark blue frost pierced straight through the ball in his hand, just barely missing his fingers. He shivered as he looked into the cold eyes before him, before dropping to the ground once again.

"Dammit!" Jirou muttered as she rubbed her ears, ever thankful for the special earplugs Izuku had given her, the loud music shaking the building slightly as she looked at the others in her group, "I didn't get much before they started blasting pop music, but I think we're surrounded."
