Do I Want To Be A Hero? (Shoto Todoroki x Male!reader)

Chapter 55

"Wow...." I whistled as the first round was over, the results showing that Class A won.

Both teams were really good, each using their quirks to their advantage, but Class A just managed to win by taking advantage of Shishida's quirk, confusing him and ultimately winning the round.

Would I be able to live up to that standard?

Sure I did go through the pro hero license exam, the training camp, the internship, and did a little more with my class...as well as the training with Mr. Aizawa. Everyone was all ahead in their training, having done more work together in teams as a class most likely.

I was, fortunately, able to do some of that in the license exam and training camp...but that was really it for me.
The students from the first round returned and soon enough, it was my turn for the second round.

I glanced to Shinso, who caught my eye and sent me a thumbs up, to which I returned with a smile as we headed to our starting points.

"Yaoyorozu-" Kendo started as we walked.
"Yes, Kendo?"

"Why didn't you enter the beauty pageant? I thought you'd definitely be in it."

"Mr. Aizawa did not tell us about the beauty pageant. I had band practice, as well, so I would not have been able to enter anyway though." She explained. "Mr. Aizawa must have judged that it was not necessary for me to enter."

"Hmmm." Kendo muttered. "We were in that commercial together at the internship, so we've kind of been put in the same category, you know? It's like there are fans that put us in the same box."
"The same box?" Momo asked, briefly putting her hand to her chin with a thoughtful expression.

"It's like when someone likes all the idols in a group." Hagakure started. "At the school festival, the same people were shouting "Yaoyorozu" and "Kendo", right?"

"Oh, now that you mention it...." Momo replied, eyes lighting up in realisation.
"Idola." Tokoyami mused. "Idol worship."

"It's like...Yaoyorozu, your grades and your quirk are both better than mine, so I didn't really like getting lumped together with you." Kendo admitted before grinning, "personally, I've been wanting to fight you properly."

At this point we had stopped; everyone was looking at Momo.

"With all my heart...I accept." Momo replied.

"Tokoyami," a new voice spoke up, making me look over to said person, "you're the same type as me..."
"Shihai Kuroiro..." Tokoyami started, "your quirk lets you merge with any darkness and move freely within it...right?"

Kuroiro grinned, which sent a shiver down my spine.
"You and I share a great destiny..." He said cryptically.
"Oh?"

I noticed that we had started moving again, so I followed on, missing the last few words exchanged between the two.

Team B went on their way while we formed a small circle to make a plan.

"Yao-momo is great at coming up with plans on the fly, so I think she should be the one guiding us!" Hagakure suggested.

I nodded, having teamed up with her a couple of times I could see that as a good option for this exercise.

However it was cut short as we heard Vlad Kings voice through the speaker.

"Go, Kendo's Team! Start the second match!"

And the sirens went off.

"Alright! Let's go. Please scout, as planned, Tokoyami." Momo instructed as we jogged to search for the other team.
"Roger." Tokoyami replied. "Dark Shadow."
"Got it!" It replied as it was let out, stretching far ahead of us.
"Report back when you find the enemy."
