Chapter Seventeen: Rest

Snow was a faithful companion for Todoroki, but this didn't make it easy to drag her up a mountain. The steep pathway carved in by previous adventurers was unstable, parts of it breaking apart with each step. The path was clearly made for humans to trek with caution. Todoroki has to grip her reins and tug her on the path. Her nervous nature didn't make this an easy task.

But the view was gorgeous.

Todoroki could see the vast forests from this height so clearly. He could see the sunset glimmer on the horizon, the birds sweeping through, the trees resting under its light. The pinks and oranges of the clouds clashed perfectly with the verdant woods and the deep valleys. The trees were as tall as the mountain itself. It was like someone plucked the saplings and stretched them out to their insane height. It was so breathtaking, so artistic.

"I never knew the outside world was like this," the prince gasped.

"Neither did I."

Todoroki looked to his side to see Uraraka... flying on her staff above the large drop. She was captured by the beauty of the mountain, her fear of height long forgotten. The wind rustled her pink dress and hat.

"U-um... What are you doing?" Todoroki asked.

"Flying," Uraraka answered, shrugging. "I did it all the time back home, but never to this height. My feet got tired and cramps decided to be a bitch, so I resorted to flying."

"You aren't afraid?"

Uraraka laughed. "Are you kidding me? I'm terrified!"

Todoroki peeked over the edge of the mountain. The view made him slight nauseous, so he shook his head and looked forward. "As long as you don't fall..."

Meanwhile, Kirishima and Kaminari we're loving the view. The Draconics were bustling around the edge, pointing out various views and heights. Kaminari was leaning on the very edge with the tips of his toes. He didn't care about the falling pebbles.

He could feel the dragon inside him begging to fly, and electricity courses through his veins. "I wanna jump... I wanna fly!"

"You are not revealing our location," another scowled.

Kaminari pouted and continued to walk along the path. "Oh, come on Bakugou. I was only kidding. Wasn't going to actually transform..."

Midoriya held his hands behind his back, closing his eyes to breathe in the fresh, mountain air. It was so clear from this height. He felt like he could taste the clouds. There wasn't much oxygen, but the parts of it he could breath in were fresh and real.

"What's it like to fly?" he suddenly asked.

Kirishima looked over. "You mean as a dragon?"

"No, he meant with a paraglider, you moron."
