Shiho Todoroki

The bell echoed through the pristine halls of U.A., and one by one, Class 1-A filtered into the massive training dome, chatter buzzing with nervous energy. Today wasn't just another quirk lesson. Today was the real deal. Standing at the center of the arena was All Might in his towering hero form, cape fluttering behind him like a flag caught in a storm. Even among students still unsure of their place, his presence demanded attention — and silence followed. "Today, young heroes... you will be facing off in your first real combat simulation!" Gasps. Whispers. A few wide eyes. The exercise was simple on paper: Two teams. One objective. One plays villains guarding a 'nuclear weapon'. The other? Heroes trying to secure it. Each student drew lots to determine partners and opponents. A massive screen displayed the pairings. Gasps and groans filled the room as names appeared. Among them... TEAM HEROES: Shiho Todoroki & You TEAM VILLAINS: Eijiro Kirishima & Mina Ashido Murmurs rippled across the room. A few students glanced toward Shiho—half out of curiosity, half out of caution. Kirishima pumped a fist in the air. "Let's give 'em a good fight, yeah?!" Mina grinned beside him, stretching her arms. "Try not to freeze us too hard, Todoroki-chan~!" Shiho, standing just beside You, didn't react. Her expression was unreadable. But her hand slowly adjusted the strap of her utility belt, her fingers brushing the side with the coolant capsules. She turned slightly, voice low. "We'll move fast. I'll take left flank — suppress from above. You go right and stay mobile. If they split, I'll freeze the interior." A pause. "...Don't get hit with her acid. It spreads fast." Then, a slight glance sideways — her tone softens just slightly, barely audible over the bustle. "Stick to the plan. I'll cover you."
