Todoroki looked at the rushing water. "What's wrong, scared of water or something?"

"No I'm not, I'm just thinking that's all."

Todoroki couldn't just cross the river. Sure it was a simple task but that wasn't the problem. Bakugou still had the card stuck on his feet causing him to not use his magic. If Katsuki entered the water Shoto would have no idea if it'll affect the card. Todoroki couldn't take that chance, it was way to risky.
'I should make a ice bridge or-' Shoto immediately noticed bakugou almost crossing the river. Todoroki grabbed his arm and pulled him away from the water. The tug was unexpected causing Bakugou to lose balance and falling on top of Todoroki.
Shoto looked at Bakugou, he was resting his head on Todorokis chest, a small blush started to creep up on Shoto's cheeks. Bakugou slowly started to raise his head, he saw Shoto have a small blush on his cheeks. Katsuki was confused at first but realized he was on top of Todoroki, there lips were two inches away before they made contact. He blushed in embarrassment and quickly stood up back on his two feet. Bakugou couched and crossed his arms "it was your fault! Why did you have to fuckin pull me?"

"If you haven't realized it's not a quiet river. The water well be a hassle to cross. I suggest I make a bridge across it so we can avoid getting wet and swept away."

"Ugh, do what you want."

The water was splashing on the rocks, if someone were to cross it and slip on a rock they were using, it'll be definitely difficult to get back up. Bakugou didn't realize that before, he just usually ignores the risk and dangers it can bring. Katsuki hate to admit it but Shoto was right. Todoroki started to cast the spell. The ice bridge started to form and reached to the other side. "Let's go" Shoto finished, he begin to cross it and waited hallway for Bakugou. The bridge had nothing to lean on or be supported, Katsuki hesitated at first. Be started to cross the bridge, it was no surprise that the ice was slippery, he was worried that he'll slip. "Bakugou do you need help?"

"NO I'M FINE!"

"Oh, okay. It just looked that you were finding it difficult to cross."

"SHUT IT PRINCESS, I CAN DO IT MYSELF!"

"Bakugou...why did you want to save Kirishima instead of yourself"

"I ALREADY TOLD YOU WHY IT'S BECA-"

"Because he's a dragon? You didn't want us to have such power in our hands?"

Bakugou was startled. He had no idea Shoto knew. "Wait if you knew that then why did you let him esc-"

Katsuki wasn't paying to were he was stepping at, his footing caused his to be unbalanced and slip to the rushing water.

"Bakugou!" todoroki rushed to him and attempted to grab him but failed. The water was rougher then he thought. Katsuki tried to reach the surface to breath but the water didn't allow it, everytime he went up to breath he was just brought down again. Shoto couldn't freeze the water, it'll freeze Bakugou while he's underwater, he'll kill him if he did that. Todoroki had no experience of this, he had no idea what to do. His panic became a huge problem. He was only focused on Bakugou, not on his spell that was hovering him up above the water. This made the spell to cancel itself. The bridge started to collapse.

Shoto had to make contact with the ground in order to make another bridge. The next thing he knew he was in the cold water. He swam up to breath, the water was pulling him away from the bridge that he had created, which was no longer there. He needed to grab hold of something, anything!

He felt a strong grip on his clothing, he was being pulled by something, he couldn't see what it was. The water was hitting his face causing him to have his vision blurry. He was holding on to a log, "you moron! Are you okay" Todoroki looked to his right to face a ash blond. Shoto never felt so happy to see him.
