CHAPTER START---
Standing in the tunnel leading to the arena Todoroki watches the crowd once again lose themselves as Midnight announces his next match.
With a sigh he raises his left hand, creating a small flickering flame in his palm. "Midoriya... you showed me what it means to be a hero, to help people," he crushes the flame in his hand, snuffing it out. "But I don't know how ready I am to start moving forward, but maybe I can help someone else..."
He sees Horizon enter the arena, hands in his pockets, not waving to the audience at all.
'Something is off,' Shoto realizes, Horizon's showmanship was suddenly taking a back seat, he was far more serious.
After Midnight announces his name Shoto begins slowly walking to the arena, his mind working overtime to go over his plan one last time. An exercise in futility.
'Freeze him as fast as possible, if that fails and he summons his sword I can use my heat to displace the Air Slashes...' he thinks, keeping it simple and adaptive.
