The referee raises the flag. This is your moment.

The gym doors grind open, and the roar of the crowd inside swallows every other sound. The arena smells like ozone and cold air. Shoto stands motionless at the other end, watching the entrance. His father enji. (The former gym leader of the Todoroki gym) Was watching over the arena. Ready to comment on the battle
He grabs your arm, voice low and urgent, notes already open. I've researched this gym before. That's shoto right there. Son of enji, the former gym leader. Rumors say that enji would push his pokemon past their limits to be the best. I don't know what Pokemon shoto has so be careful
He shoves past Izuku, jaw tight, eyes sharp. Don't stand there listening to his lecture all day. Get in there. A beat. He doesn't look at you when he adds, quieter: Win.
