Tightening the tie on her hair, Sakura let out a big huff before looking back to the students she just managed to restrain. Since they are allowed to escape, she had to make sure to knock them off unconscious after she had informed and apologized for doing so. She pulled her mask up to cover her mouth and looked around the destruction she just did "yikes, now I feel a little bad but—" she raised an eyebrow as she kept staring on the direction where Shinsou was supposed to be "It's disappointing that I let one mouse go, I should just check on—" her head turned to the opposite direction as she heard a number of footsteps passing by. Her thoughts of finding Shinsou was completely ignored as she quickly activated her quirk in her legs before flying off to where the sounds lead her.

"It's Sakura-chan!" a familiar voice announced in panic.

Sakura caught a glimpse of a familiar red and white hair before she was completely blocked by a huge cold and ice wall, attempting to freeze her whole body "Shouto" she gritted her teeth as she quickly dodged backwards and flew back where she came from. The ice had almost touched her and that would be a problem if she got stuck in it "I guess they're moving north? Well, Alexei and Umi can handle them" with a sigh, she turned her back and decided to look for her loose prey.

"it looks like Sakura had her own fun" Alexei commented as he sat comfortably on a huge metal pipe nearby. He was just watching Umi summon all the water she can get from her surroundings. Since they're surrounded with nothing but steel, she could only take about a huge tank of water to assist her. If it was already snowing, it would've been a different story since she could use anything that is made up of water but snow is quite problematic for him, Leo and Sakura "Would that be enough?" he asked, tilting his head to the side as the water moved around Umi in a comfortable manner.

"I'd get by" she quietly said, mentally reminding herself that she's not allowed to use her healing quirk. The bluenette turned her head to Alexei's direction to ask him a question but she was surprised when the bruenette suddenly ran on hers and quickly pushed her down on the floor, followed by a huge trail of ice that completely froze everything in its path.

Glaring at the direction where it came from, Alexei couldn't help but let out a quiet cuss "that was close"

Shouto's here! Umi thought as she let herself get carried by the bruenette before gently placing her back to stand. No distractions. A long green vein suddenly attempted to attack them from the front and Alexei quickly moved to cover Umi's small body, his right arm turning into a huge wood that served as a barrier between them and their hidden enemies.

The vein moved backward and Alexei let out a huge hiss as his wooden arm felt a searing pain in his arm. He can't help but to retract his arm and saw a burn in his skin "they have a fire user, that kid Shouto Todoroki—" he felt his instincts go wild as his eyes tried to look around for any signs of movement.

Umi showed her concern as she noticed his burnt arm. She's quite worried that she's not allowed to use healing even if its just to help Alexei with his second-degree burn. It looks painful so she only used her water to at least served as a cool compress to ease the pain "Will you be alright, Alex?"

Nodding, Alex kept his eyes away "yeah, I'll be fine. Thanks. But I think we're surrounded"

Suddenly, a ball of fire came from behind and Umi was quick this time to block it with a wall of water. She pressed her back on Alexei's as she kept her sight in front of her "should we stay on defense?"
