Finding Me (Todoroki x Reader)

Two Heroes - Chapter 7

"OCHACO!"

BOOM

My breath hitched as a massive explosion hit some of the bots, blasting them apart right before they could attack Ochaco. And I knew exactly who the blast came from without even looking - there could only be one person with such explosive attacks.

"Kaachan?!" Midoriya cried out in surprise, even as he continued to rise higher and higher towards the tower's top.

Before the ash-blond boy could respond, more bots were suddenly encased in ice, freezing their wheels in place. Blinking out of my stupor, I took off in a run with Shoto and Kirishima towards where Ochaco stood, eyes scanning for anymore bots.

"Todoroki and Kirishima," Ochaco called out. "Y/N, you too?!"

"That was close," Shoto said as we reached the brunette, all three of us turning our backs and surrounding her. "Are you okay?"

Ochaco nodded. "Yeah, fine. I used my quirk on Deku and Melissa. They should be able to reach the top."

I spotted the pair still floating upwards, and I couldn't help a proud grin from forming on my lips. They were gonna make it. They were gonna reach the top.

Stepping forward towards the fight at hand - the one Bakugou and Kirishima were already engaged in - I raised my good arm, concentrating on lighting only my hand up with power. There was so much energy buzzing through me that I had to be careful being in such a crowded space. However, my smile morphed into a hungry smirk, the energy I felt in my hands buzzing and crackling in anticipation.

"Good work, Ochaco," I said. "Now you can help us out with these guys."

"But your arm, Y/N," Ochaco muttered, causing me to turn and face her. The worry displayed on her round face had my smirk faltering, but I fixed it with a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry about me, Ochaco. I'll manage; although I think all I'll be good for is long ranged attacks."

"She's right," Shoto said, sending out an icy barrage at a swarm of security bots. "Let Y/N and I do all the long-ranged attacks, whilst you help out Bakugou and Kirishima."

"Who died and made you boss?" Bakugou barked, blasting another bot away before moving onto the next.

Kirishima grunted as he karate-chopped a bot with his hardened arm, a playful smile tugging at his lips. "Aw, come on man," he said, smashing another bot. "You're a good team."

"DREAM ON!"

I rolled my eyes at the pair, staying behind Ochaco as I sent out another energy beam. However, I couldn't stop my own smile forming. Those two really were something else. Sucking in heavy breaths, I struggled to stand on my feet as the pain from my arm became apparent again. Shoto's ice was melting and the strain on my body wasn't helping. We had to end this, and fast.

"Thanks so much you guys- WHOA!" Ochaco gasped, her features scrunching together as she looked upwards. "Oh no! They're blowing away!"

Following Ochaco's gaze, I saw Melissa and Midoriya being blown off course from one of the fans, pushing them closer and closer to open air. Shit. What did we do? My E/C gaze fell on where my floating friends were, trailing back to where they had been. Right next to the fans. That was it: the fans.

"Shoto," I called, locking eyes with him. "The fans. Use your flames to get them back on track. Use your heat to make them rise!"

"On it." In one swift movement, the icy-hot boy had thrown off his suit jacket, racing towards a spot underneath a column of fans. "Bakugou! Aim the propellor at Midoriya. Quick!"
