Borderline

USJ

lmao, I can't do titles. 😂
********************************

It had been a few days since school started and Izuku had started to get used to everything, which is why he had a panic attack in the bathroom after Aizawa sensei told the class that they were going to the USJ. He had just started to get used to everything and now they were going to some new place, granted it was just for the day, but that didn’t really make it any less of an issue.

By the time Izuku got on the bus, everyone else was already there. He sat down beside Shouto, who gave him a worried look. “I’m okay,” he told his brother before he could work himself into a proper panic. It wasn’t entirely true, but what Shouto didn’t know wouldn’t kill him.

***

He and Shouto had been separated. He was in the flood zone and he could already see Shouto's ice over in the landslide zone. He knew they could both take care of themselves, but it didn't make him worry any less. However, he didn't let himself panic, not yet. Instead, he simply pushed the panic to the back of his mind. He knew it'd only make it worse when he finally let it out, but it was the best thing for now. He wouldn't let himself become a liability, not again. He couldn't; there was too much at stake. Besides, Mineta currently seemed to be panicking enough for the both of them, clearly worried about the villains in the water.

Izuku would probably be closer to panic if it weren't for the fact that he had already conjured up a plan by the time the three of them were on the ship. He had Mineta and Asui distract the villains while he leaned over the side of the ship to freeze the water and the villains along with it. They then simply ran to flat ground as quickly as the ice would allow.

From here, they find Aizawa-sensei trying to fight off a bunch of villains practically one handed.

Shouta's POV
Shouta was currently 'fighting' the leader of the villain's, who was really doing more talking than anything. He seemed highly displeased. At one point, he suddenly sticks his arm through one of the purple guy's portals and then there's a wall of ice coming up to block his back. He turns to the side to see the younger Todoroki twin running towards him, Asui and Mineta running in a different direction. Shouta blinks in surprise. He just got his life saved by a fifteen year old student.

Before he has a chance to yell at the boy to leave, there's a loud groaning noise from the wall of ice and then it simply disintegrates. Shouta just catches a glimpse of the villain leaders hand disappearing back through the portal before the man lets out a yell of frustration, causing Shouta to spin back around, attention refocusing on the matter at hand.

The green haired boy stops beside him, panting lightly. "Are you alright, sensei?" he asks, and seriously? Shouldn't Shouta be the one asking him that? Then again, the boy had just saved him from being turned to ash.

"I'm fine," Shouta reassures the boy, "you shouldn't be here. Go back with your classmates."

"All due respect, but no. I know you're a pro and I'm barely a student, but I can't just leave you to fight them all alone. It wouldn't be right," the boy says, jerking his head in the villains direction.

"Not to be ungrateful, but shouldn't you be more concerned for your brothers safety?" Shouta asks, side-glancing him.

He can almost hear the kid's jaw creak as he grinds his teeth. "I am," he says quietly, sending a worried glance toward the landslide zone, where collums of ice are still shooting up all over the place, "but Shouto can take care of himself. I have faith in him."

"Stop talking and fight!" the hand villain yells just then, as if he had waited for their conversation to end before interrupting. Hypocritical much? He looks pissed off now and lunges forward, but before he can take more than a step he's suddenly encased up to his neck in ice.
