Dying For You (A BNHA Chatfic)

dark shadow is a bitch

Tokoyami's shadow followed him as he raced down the halls. "SHOJI!"
God fucking damn it, Sho. I can't fucking count on you, what the hell. What do I do if an actual villain attacks, not just an earthquake.
A sudden pain in his chest caused him to bend over. Claws scraped against glass, and Tokoyami had the good sense to back into a dorm before a shadow slipped over the wall, its' demonic eyes searching. Fumikage groaned.
Goddammit Dark Shadow.
The shadow pounced into the dorm, whipping out at Tokoyami multiple times. "Dark Shadow! Stop!"
He grunted as his shadow smashed something at his head.
"I swear on god, Dark Shado-" A bedside table came flying at him and he flung himself to the side, glaring at his bitchy little shadow, swearing he could see a flicker of demonic happiness in Dark Shadow's eyes.

Tokoyami darted left, and as his shadow counterattacked left, he ducked under the pile of crap Dark Shadow had flung at him, rushing out into the open halls. "SHOJI! SOMEONE!" Dark Shadow howled and Fumikage had the good sense to slam the door against him, holding it shut. But shadows don't have mass, and the little bitch slid under the damned door.
"HELP!" Tokoyami screamed, as Dark Shadow rushed up against him, throwing him over the balustrade. He spun toward the ground five floors away, trying to get control of his shadow. "HELP ME!" In the last millisecond, a slimy pink tongue wrapped around his lithe body, and he gasped with shock, the rocky floor two inches from his beak.
Tsu leaned off the ruined third story, clutching the white balustrade, while clutching him. "Toko!! Are you okay, ribbit?" She unwrapped her tongue, setting him on the floor gently, and swung down. "Did Dark Shadow hurt you?"
"No.." He sat up bleakly. "Thank you so much, Tsuyu." The frog girl nodded and stood up. "What happened? Where's Shoji?"
Tokoyami shook his head, shaking. "I can't find him."
He pulled out his phone and sent a text.

Tokoyami - Shoji, are you all right? I haven't heard from you, and I'm worried. Please answer.

The message was never opened.

Shinso's eyes snapped open. He sat up, pain flooding his head. He winced, not remembering what had happened. He attempted to stand, having to grasp the wall as he fought the urge to pass back out. In the darkness, he saw the outline of Denki's hair. The second he saw his boyfriend on the ground, with a pool of blood around him, the memories of earlier immediately came flooding back. The girl. Toru. And her sidekick. They killed Denki. They took him. They fucking took him from completing his life dreams.

"Now that I'm with U.A, I actually feel like I'm going to get somewhere with my life. Even if I'm not powerful enough, I'm going to try.

The blonde smiled one of his trademark smiles.

Shinso smiled.

"You're going to get there. We're going to get there together, and we're going to be heroes together. That's why we're here!"

He gestured at the open campus.

"I'll try to be the best I can be. And we'll be together! Even if we aren't in the same class."
