"Hey sleeping beauty.."

I joked at the slowly waking up Ochaco. She smiled at me weakly and relaxed herself on the medical bed.

Ochaco:"Where are we..?"

"Here at Recovery Girl's clinic..."

Ochaco:"How did I get here?"

Recovery Girl:"He carried you here, sweetie. You got a real man taking care of you, you know?"

"Oh dear..."

Ochaco:"R-really?!"

"Yep, sorry."

Ochaco:"I-It's fine..thank you..."

"No problem."

I replied before standing up from my seat. I grabbed my can of Diet Coke from the cooling vent and popped it open.

Ochaco:"Whose fight is it now?"

"It's Todoroki and Izuku fight, if we might hurry, we can still catch them before they start."

I replied onto which she nodded in return. I glance at Recovery Girl and got a thumbs up from her.

"Let's go.."

I held my hand up for her, she then got a hold of it as I help her get up from the bed. I can visibly see her blush which I returned with a small smile.

At the Stadium....

The fated duel between Izuku and Shoto has finally arrived. As soon as it begins, Shoto leads with an ice attack, but Izuku counters with a Delaware Smash. Shoto creates a pillar of ice behind him to keep him from being blown out of bounds, as he expected Izuku to break his finger in order to negate the attack.

All Might  comments that this was likely the only way Izuku could have retaliated. Izuku is forced to damage a second finger to stop Shoto's next attack and mulls over that he only has six more chances, and must find Shoto's weakness before he breaks all his fingers. Shoto doesn't let up and continues his onslaught of ice attacks.

In Class 1-A's section of the stands, Eijiro returns from beating Tetsutetsu. He sarcastically compliments Katsuki and Shoto for having techniques that blast the whole stadium. Katsuki responds by explaining that Quirk's are physical abilities and can get worn out just like anything else. He takes a moment to ponder that this is the very reason he designed his costume in such a way so that he could go beyond his own limits.

Shoto's assault continues, forcing Izuku to break the last finger on his right hand. However, Shoto withstands the smash and creates a tower of ice to run up and close the distance between them. Izuku uses another smash to break the ice steps a part, but Shoto avoids it and nearly freezes Izuku at close range.

In order to break the ice that's slowly freezing him, Izuku sacrifices his entire left arm and lets off a full powered smash. Causing F/n to jump in excitement.

F/n:"HOLY CRAP!! DAMN IT! I LEFT MY POPCORN!"

Shoto withstands the aftershock of the smash using an ice blockade. While recovering, Shoto notes that this attack from Izuku was significantly more powerful the previous ones and that he realizes his opponent is trying to keep him at a distance. Izuku is startled by Shoto's combat awareness, and some viewing fans even comment that Shoto is already stronger than the average pro hero. 

Questioning Izuku's durability, Shoto asks if he's already too worn out from defending against the ice. Izuku doesn't respond, and instead he notices that Shoto is shaking because of the frost that building up on the right side of his body.
