Shoto's body trembled as he lay on the frozen ground, his breath coming in weak, ragged puffs. His tears, frozen solid, clung to his skin. He turned his head slightly, eyes barely open, and saw Dabi lying unconscious beside him. He's not moving...

“im.. sorry..” Shoto whispered, his voice hoarse, barely more than a breath.

His fingers twitched, but he had no strength left to move. The ice surrounding them shimmered faintly under the fading light. ** * I had to...

All the pro heroes, Burnin, Engenium.. they were all frozen with fear and shock from the fight that just ended. Shoto's eyelids felt heavy, but he forced himself to stay awake a little longer, just to make sure Dabi wouldn’t rise again.
