This fight was intense

and fierce

and violent

and...(looks for more synonyms) 

and harsh!

You watched on the edge of your seat as they beat the living crap out of each other while arguing. Ice was being blown everywhere and Todoroki was showing signs of frostbite on his right side. 

Use your damn flames to melt the ice...

They kept at it and you honestly thought Izuku would die from the way his arms looked. Shouting at one another, it never stopped until Izuku said something to trigger Todoroki.

"It's your power isn't it?!" You were stunned and watched in amazement as Todoroki released flames into the arena. You could tell that there was only one thing left for them to do, one last blow, and it happened instantly.

There was debris everywhere and clouds of smoke. It was hard to tell what happened and everyone had to wait until it died down. After what seemed like an eternity you could finally distinguish what had happened; Izuku at one end of the arena while Todoroki was barely within the bounds.

"The winner is Shoto Todoroki!" Midnight announced and everyone erupted into cheers, everyone except you. You watched as they hauled Izuku to the infirmary and decided to teleport there and wait for him. 

-

He had two broken arms,

Two.

And on top of that, he needed surgery.

You sighed when Recover girl said that you had to leave since Izuku wasn't even awake yet after the surgery. You went to the waiting room and thought it would be best to just stay there and wait for him to get up. 

After all that tension, you really didn't feel like watching the other battles, you could watch them again later on T.V. or something.

So this is the path you all want to take to become heroes?

Personally, maybe if you were in there position, you would have given up if you were against someone as strong as Izuku, Todoroki or even Katsuki. They were on such a different level yet Hanta and Ochaco gave it their all knowing the big difference they had against their opponents.

You tensed up when you heard the door handle starting to move.

"Y/n?" Todoroki said as he entered and finished buttoning up the new jacket that they probably just gave him since he burned the last one he had on.

"Hey." You relaxed a bit in your chair. "Congrats on winning." You added softly, somewhat afraid of him after the whole battle. 

Todoroki could tell you were nervous or on edge and felt bad about the way he treated you before. "Thanks." He mumbled in return. He took a seat next to you and you couldn't help but fidget around since you didn't know what to say. "Do you by any chance know how Izuku is doing?" He asked politely.

"Oh, he's gonna be okay, he's resting now." 

"Oh." The stress was killing you and thought it might be better to wait for Izuku somewhere else.

"Well, I'd better get going." You excused yourself awkwardly as you got up.

"Wait." He stood up, catching your attention. "I'm... sorry about what I said before." He rubbed his arm as he looked away, not making eye contact with you. You didn't answer him right away making him look up at you. You smiled sadly towards him catching him off guard.
