Ping.
A notification for a livestream of a big fight near High End. I glance away from my homework to pull it up. The sight of Endeavor greets me. He's staring down a strange villain.
For a moment, nothing happens.
Then-
My blood runs cold as he appears to be hit by the villain, crashing to the ground.
His body is still.
It feels a lot like...
All Might's last battle.
I'm frozen before a thought strikes me.
Todoroki. That's his dad. That's-
The last time I saw him, he was in the common area. I leap out of my chair and dash down the hall. Tearing my way down the stairs, I make it there in record time. As I run into the room, I briefly remember I could have just used my quirk but I shove the thought aside.
Todoroki stands almost completely still, watching the fight on the tv. I keep my distance from him but my eyes never leave him. The broadcast snatches my attention for a moment.
"-received information that a large group of the modified humans-- 'Nomu' --has also been spotted!
The heroes are currently engaging them in battle and leading the evacuation effort!
However, Endeavor, the first to enter the fray has--
This horrific scene...
We are, however reluctantly, reminded of the nightmare from three months ago..."
I tune the tv out, my attention turning solely to Todoroki. We aren't particularly close but I'd still consider him a friend. There's an audible gasp and I glance back to the screen. Endeavor is back up and fighting again.
Taking a step closer, I hover nervously at typically stoic teen's side. I'm not entirely sure if I can even do anything to help but I just feel the intense need to comfort him. Hurried footsteps draw my attention to the doorway. Aizawa sensei stops after a few feet and speaks quietly.
"Todoroki... so you already saw everything...?"
"Don't bullshit me..."
I flinch back at the tone of the stoic boy's voice. Before anyone can respond, a kid on the tv steals our attention.
"Quit prattlin' on like that!
What the hell're you lookin' at, to come up with that nonsense!
Now is not the time for yer antics!
Look! Can't you see?!
His flames are still burnin', ain't they?!
Open yer eyes and look!
Endeavor's still alive!
And he's fightin' for us!
Don't go broadcasting despair all over the world!
