Limitless (Todoroki x OC)

Prologue

They met in high school. Did they know of their importance in each other's futures? Nope. Did they realize they had so much in common when they saw each other for the first time? Not at all. He was to her just another strong person in Class 1A while she was to him just another insignificant pebble on the side of his road to becoming the No 1 hero.

So, what is it that draws them together? They didn't pay each other any heed the first time they saw each other, for he was focused on defying his old man and she was there to atone for her sins. Similar goals, but different motivations. Two sides of the same coin. Both knew that the way forward was long and thorny, but both must keep moving forward for fear of the past catching up to them. Keep moving forward, carrying the scars of the past that haven't healed. Keep moving forward, no matter how tattered their bodies become, no matter how much their bodies buckle and break, since the obstacles that they faced in front of them pale in comparison to the memories and horrors of past that chase them.

His name was Shoto Todoroki. The preeminent strongest of the class. The preeminent pretty boy of the class. The always calm and cool headed Todoroki.

Her name was Rukina Yagi. Has a good heart, but a bit socially awkward at times. You would have never guessed that that cute little blonde killed someone before. You would have never guessed those pretty blue eyes were holding back a monster that could emerge at any moment if she weren't careful. You would have never guessed that those tiny, fragile looking hands were stained with blood.

Both had a past that always chased them. And because of that past, both had the dream of becoming heroes, desperately trying to save themselves in doing so.
