Predestined [Katsuki Bakugou X OC]

nineteen

It was a bright and early morning for the Todoroki household. The house a lot more peaceful than usual. And it was because the head of the house, Enji Todoroki, was away on a business trip. But that peace had suddenly stopped at the sound of three kids.

"Tou!"

"Ku!"

"Sho!" Both Touya and Hiraku suddenly looked at Shoto confusedly.

"Sho, you can't just call your own name," the 5 year old girl said matter of factly. "You need to wait for someone to call you."

"But Fuyumi-nee and Natsuo-nii are still sleeping, " the 5 year old boy replied as he stared at the two people he adored the most.

"Ku can just call your name too," The 9 year old said. Touya was the oldest, but Hiraku had been the unspoken leader of the bunch. "Right, Ku?"

"Yeah! Of course!" Hiraku smiled happily as she gently pulled the two boy out into the backyard. "Hmm, now what should we play?"

"Let's play tag!"

"No! Let's play Church!" Touya argued with Shoto. Hiraku clicked her tongue unamusedly, Touya looked at her amusingly. He thought she looked cute when she acted like an adult.

"We can play tag Sho, but I don't want you to fall down and get hurt," She said, then she placed her hand under her chin as she closed her eyes. " And I think Church is the safest game anyway."

"Yes!" Touya softly cheered as he immediately pulled Hiraku's hand. "Come, my bride. Let's get married."

"Hold up!" Everybody stopped as the girl held her hands up. "I can't marry you, Tou! I've already promised myself that I'll get married to Katsuki!"

"But I want to marry you too, Ku," Shoto softly spoke as he pulled on Hiraku's dress. Hiraku frowned with a pout.

"Hmm, I guess you can be my second husband Sho." Shoto immediately smiled as he held her hand.

"Hey! What about me!?" Touya grabbed their attention as he exclaimed in annoyance. "You're supposed to marry me Ku!"

"Fine you can be my fourth husband."

"Fourth? Who's the third?"

"Tsuo is," she answered as she began pulling Shoto towards the small pond in the backyard.

"Natsuo? Why can't I be just the first then?" He asked as he blocked Shoto and Hiraku's way with his arm wide open.

"My heart already belongs to Katsuki," Hiraku answered as she tried to push the older boy away. Shoto was still holding her hand.

"Can't I have some of your love Ku?" Shoto softly interjected. Hiraku couldn't help but gasp softly at Shoto's cuteness. She immediately embraced the boy.

"Awww. You can have half of my heart then Sho!"

"Hey what about me Ku!?"

"You can choke, Tou."

"Where did you even learn those words!?"

.

"Touya?"Hiraku asked as she gently touched the scarred face of Touya. But her eyes immediately widened when Touya grabbed her neck and slammed her to the wall."Tou—"

"I ain't him! He's dead! Who are you!?" He yelled angrily at her face. Hiraku could only close her eyes as she felt the hands on her neck getting hotter. "You're not her!"

"It—it's me Tou," She gasped out, Dabi immediately let her go as she fell on the ground. She held her neck as she coughed from the loss of oxygen. Dabi stared at the hero in disbelief. "I'm Hiraku."

"You can't—" He stared at Hiraku's blonde hair defeatedly. "No. You can't be." 

No matter how much he denied it, the truth was out now. He was Touya and she was Hiraku. Dabi hissed silently seeing the burn on the girl's neck as she stood up. He was now way taller than the tiny girl.

"I—I'm sorry. I'm sorry Tou. I don't know why I forgot you," She apologized as the tears that previously welled in her eyes kept on falling profusely. Dabi could only stare in shock. He couldn't believe that the only person he never wanted to meet again was right there in front of him."I'm so sorry. Did I—did I hurt you? Where have you been?"

She kept on walking towards him, but he just kept on backing away from her.

He didn't want to see her. He didn't want to touch her. Cause he knew that if he did, then he'd be Touya again. And he had already buried Touya deep inside him.

So with a goal in his mind, he sucked a deep breath as he waved her off with his fire then he quickly jumped towards a nearby building. Cursing at himself when he had stopped to check whether she was alright. He continued to curse himself when he sighed in relief seeing Hiraku unharmed at the alleyway.

She was calling out to him, tears still streaming, but nonetheless unharmed. He closed his eyes in frustration as he continued running away from the hero.

"Touya! Touya! Don't leave! Please!" She continued to yell for the boy. Due to the smoke, but mostly her tears, she could not see where he went off to. "Fuck!" She screamed in frustration as she kicked a nearby trash bin.

She could then feel the pain on her neck. She knew that it was already burnt. But she could care less. For she had found the thing she didn't knew was missing all along. Now she understood Shoto's dislike towards Endeavor. Did her own mind block his memories? Why? She tried to scan her memories, but she found that she couldn't use her quirk.

"Argh! Dammit!"

She went home that night with pain on her neck, but the thing that hurt the most was her heart. How could she forget him? How could she forget Touya? Why did her own quirk block her own memories? And why couldn't she unblock it?

When she got to the bathroom inside her room she found that she still couldn't use her quirk to heal her neck, so she carefully bandaged it after placing burn cream on the burnt skin.

She sighed heavily as she sat down on her bed. She tried to grasp at some of the memories she could remember and let her tears fall when she remembered how she had loved— how much she loves the older boy to this day. She tried to remember how he disappeared, but she couldn't.

She groaned as she lied down on her bed. Cursing her quirk and how it's stupid that she needed to feel happy in order to use it. She suddenly stood up as she proceeded to teleport to their basement. When she finally found a dusty box with her name labeled on it she grinned happily.

"Bingo." She quickly grabbed the box and teleported back to her room. She placed the dusty box on the floor as she opened it. She sighed in relief when there were no bugs. She rummaged through the box until she saw a medium-sized red chest. She grabbed it and sat on her bed.

When she saw the lock she immediately opened a portal and stick her hand inside, smiling when she grabbed a tiny key. She then unlocked the box and gasped as she placed her hand on her mouth.

"Oh." She grabbed the first photo she saw. Tears welled in her eyes as she saw the two kids occupying the photograph. The blonde-haired girl was staring in awe at the red-haired boy beside her as he grinned. Hiraku sobbed seeing the two kids hold hands.

She continued to find photos of her and the rest of the Todoroki children. Crying even more when she saw a photo of her as a little girl, sitting on Rei's lap as she looked up at the woman who was smiling warmly towards the camera.

Hiraku remembered how much she loves Rei and how much she felt Rei's love for her. But the last photo made her sob loudly. It was her getting carried by Touya behind his back. What made her sob was seeing the boy with white hair and bandages on his arms.

She was oblivious of his pain when she was younger. She questioned him before, but she couldn't remember his answer. She sobbed even harder as she place the photograph to her chest. How much did Touya suffer? And how much pain was he feeling? Was he mad at her? Did he hate her?

"I'm sorry, Tou."
