Don't Play with Fire

~ Chapter 2 ~

Touya's POV:

I was in my room doing homework, trying to distract myself from the screams downstairs. I bite my lip. What the hell was I thinking? Doing my homework? Please, I should be trying to help Shoto... and myself.

Me and Shoto need to get out of here, but how? We don't have any family nearby, expect for our grandmother on Mum's side. But I doubt that she'd let us in, mainly because it's our dad's fault that her daughter has gone insane.

Thanks to Enji making us being homeschooled, we don't have any friends or anyone else like that to stay with.

The Pro Heros or police? They'll bring us right back to Enji and we'll be in more trouble than ever before.

I sighed, running out of ideas. We needed to get away now. Before Endeavour kills us-

Then it hit me like a load of bricks. We could fake our deaths. We could fake our deaths. My quirk is known for burning me a little, it wouldn't be a suprise if one day something went wrong and, boom! Touya's gone. As for Shoto, I'm his eldest brother. I could just be looking after him when the incident happens.

I smiled to myself. I was about to pack my bags when I realised three problems.
One, money. I know I come from a rich family, but it's not like Enji gives us a little allowanece, let alone enough money for me and Sho to survive off of.
Two, a place to stay. Even if we fake our deaths there's still no place for us to stay at.
And three, what about Nastuo and Fuyumi? If me and Shoto leave, and with mum already gone now, Endeavour will almost certainly take out his rage on them.

I was about to give up when I found some possible solutions to those problems. I'm 15, which means I'm allowed to work to earn some money. I could then use the money I make to get a small apartment, some food, and things like that. I just need to find a good paying job.

But no matter how hard I tried I couldn't think on how to help Yumi and Nat survive Enji after we leave. I shook my head, even if I am the oldest and I love my siblings, I can't look after them forever. Besides, after this they'll think we just died, they won't suspect us leaving them at all.

I don't think I did a good job on convincing myself, but I went on my phone researching some jobs I might be interested in.

~ Time skip a few months later because I'm lazy ~

I managed to save up 80000 yen, which is a pretty big achivment not gonna lie. I also got into Endeavour's safe, and stole about 40000 yen. That should be enough to last us a while. I've also been looking at some small apartments in Kyoto, that should be far enough so they don't suspect anthing.

I also bought a couple tubes of black hair dye and a couple white, I figured I might as well change our looks. I used to have red hair and now it's turned white, and Shoto's half red, half white hair isn't really going to help us in this situation. 

I took a deep breath. Not gonna lie I'm kinda excited. Tonight Endeavour is on patrol, Fuyumi is at a dance lesson, and Nastuo is at a soccer match. Leaving me and Shoto home alone. 

I walk down stairs to see Shoto eating some cold soba, his favourite food. He finally removed the bandage from over his eye blood red scar. It pained me to see him like that, but he seemed to be over it now...

"Hey Touya!" he greets me, "How are you?"

"I'm pretty good, thanks," I reply with a huge smile on my face.

Shoto looked at me confused, "Why you so happy?" he asks cautiously.

I laugh, "How would you like to leave this hell hold once and for all?" I question him with a smirk.

Now Sho looked even more confused, but with a small smile, "Leave this place... forever?" He asked with a hopeful look in his eyes.

I chuckled softly, "Of course lil bro," I confirmed. 

He was about to say something before he frowned. "But what about Fuyumi and Natsuo?" He asked innocently.

I opened my mouth, but stopped and thought about what I was going to say. "They're... they're not coming with us..." I told him henistantely.

"B-but why not?" Sho trembled.

"... Because even if we go father won't hurt them," I tell him cautiously, hoping what I was saying was true, "Besides, we don't need them when we have each other..." I'm so sorry Yumi, Nat, please forgive me.

Sho looked at me skeptically, and sighed, "Okay, when do we leave?" he looked hopeful again.

I smiled at this, "So first you're gonna need to pack your bags," I instructed.

I know yall gonna hate me for leaving poor Fuyumi and Nastuo. Don't worry, I hate myself for it to-
Hope yall are having a good day/night :)
