Lost - (KamiJirou NextGen) SEQUAL

Esper vs Shoto Todroki

Let's go to the next battle

(Suguha POV)

The arena's not half bad... I thought to myself as I walked in. On the other side, the person who was ranked the second best hero was about to be my opponent. I quickly felt my surroundings with telekinesis. It's mostly flat ground here, I'll have to catch him by surprise. I thought

"And... Begin!" Sensei yelled. Fire immediately shot at me threatening to burn me into a crisp. The ground below me was ripped out with me on top of it. I flew to Todoroki's left side. Dodging the flames.

"Are you trying to make me use my ice?" Todoroki asked. "Fine then," He said. Suddenly, ice shot out of his left arm shooting toward me. Control it! I thought, suddenly, fire blazed towards me too, not giving me time to control the ice. I weaved out of the way only to be shot at more.

He's not giving enough time to control anything! I thought, Not only that, but I can barely balance on this makeshift flying saucer! I grumbled. I have to find a way to buy myself time- Suddenly, fire blazed towards me again. 

"Keep in mind this is only 30% of what I can do," Todoroki said. "Do you still think you stand a chance against me?" He asked.

I bit her lip as I remembered what Sakura had told me. "We can't afford to lose before Yuuki's battle, you know that right?"  I glared at Todoroki.

"I can't afford to lose!" I yelled, speeding towards him. Todoroki sighed as both fire and ice blazed toward me. Knocking me off my flying rock.

"A shame..." Todoroki sighs, "I was at least hoping you'd put up a small fight..." He walks up to me, preparing to finish me off.

Not yet! I will myself forward. I mentally reach out to everything around me and start chucking everything I have at Todoroki in a wild frenzy, chunks of the arena and ice are thrown at him. I got him! I'm attacking from all sides!

Todoroki suddenly raises his arm and fire bursts out covering his body and burning anything that's thrown at him to ash.

"One last frenzy..." Todoroki looks at me disappointed as the last of my strength saps. A painful headache rings through my brain.

"Anything else you want to say?" Todoroki asks, standing over me.

"I..." I whisper.

"You...?"

"I've been waiting for this!" I smile through the pain. Suddenly, the ground underneath Todoroki gives out and he falls to the ground, quickly, with the last of my energy I cover his arms with the remaining chunks of the arena.

Pain rings through my head, begging me to let Todoroki go and stop using telekinesis. No! I yell at myself. Don't let go!! No matter what you don't let go!! I thought. I thought back to dad and how he still thought even after he took a steel pole to the stomach. He never gave in, so why should I? I gritted my teeth and held Todoroki still. Finally, I heard the announcement.

"Shoto Todoroki is unable to battle! Esper wins!!" They said. I let Todoroki go, and everything went black.

(Ren's POV)

I felt something move again, downstairs, the surgeons were performing something in another room. I could feel it. How long has it been? I thought. I could hear people speak to me. I could sense it when someone came into my room.

I've been in a coma for who knows how long and yet still... I can't decide.

What do I fight for? I ask myself again. I've seen both sides. I know that the term "hero" does not actually mean that they're heroes and the term "villain" does actually mean villain. I don't know what's wrong and what's right anymore... 

I think back to the time I spent with the "villains" Ichika, Tobi, and Saki. Zero too. I thought.

"In the end, we're just foolish humans, fighting for what we think is right,"  I remember Ichika telling me. 

"C'mon Ren! Get up!" Tobi once told me another time in training, "Don't tell me you've given up already," He said. "If you remain this weak, how are you gonna protect what you care about from the people in power?" He asked. "You've got some insane talent y'know, even Mr. Takamatstu sees it, now I'm gonna help you do something with it." He said.

What the hell do I fight for? How do I know if I'm doing the right thing? I questioned myself once more.

Takamatsu is evil... or is he? He's providing equality by giving quirks out to the less fortunate so they have a chance in this world. I thought, confusing myself further.

Suddenly, I sense the door open, I sense someone walk in. I'm still asleep but I can feel and hear people moving. I can feel people. I can sense there presence.

"Ren," A familiar voice talks to me. I struggle to remember where I heard it from.

"It's Eri, you've never seen my face but I healed you in your fight against Zero," She explains, "I'm here to tell you something,"

I remember now, Zero stabbed me in the stomach, I thought I was going to die but someone caught me when I was thrown into the rubble. Eri told me her name when we were under the rubble and my stomach was healed. I was too focused on Zero to ask any questions back then. I thought.

"Listen," I felt Eri touch my shoulder, "Wake up." She demanded, "I know you can hear me Ren, although barely, I know you can hear me, the fact that the scans show a lot of mental activity from you prove that your only semi-concious."

I can't wake up yet, I thought, There are still things I have to sort out in my mind, I still don't know if what I fight for is right or not.

"I have no idea why you've shown no sign of waking yet, but you have to. Takamatstu isn't defeated, you and the other kids weren't his only followers," She warns me. "Get up."

I don't know is I'm doing the right thing...

"You have something to fight for right?" Eri asked, "Let me guess, you no longer know whether that something is right or wrong. But does that really matter?" She asked. "Why does right or wrong matter," Eri leaned in to whisper in my ear. "Let me give you my opinion," She offered.

"There's no such thing as right or wrong," She whispered, "You have something to protect right? So that's your resolution, it's neither right nor wrong but you're still gonna do it with everything you have right?" 

Yes. I thought. I want... to protect what's close to me. Images of my friends flashed through my mind.

"Why are you still sleeping here instead of getting stronger so you can protect them?" Eri whispered. 

"Or maybe..." Eri grabbed my arm. "Maybe you just want to let Takamatstu rip Zero to shreds too?" She threatened. 

That got me mad.

(Eri POV)

"Maybe you just want to let Takamatstu rip Zero to shreds too?" I threatened. Suddenly electricity burst forth from Ren's body causing a black out as Ren awakened. He sat up silently gripping the sheets.

"Your not gonna let that happen are you?" I asked.

"No." Ren answered.

"Then get up. We have things to do."
