strangled

⁴³the real meaning of r&r [pt. 2]

revenge

Endeavor begins to get up on his feet, however he doesn't get a chance to before his body gets tackled to the ground.

"You should have taken the easy way out when I was trying to be nice, old man!" You yell at him while wrapping your hands tight around his neck, squeezing it as hard as you can until you nearly feel his bones crushing beneath your fingers.

A murderous smile is on your face. "How does it feel to be the one getting strangled?"

"Get off of me!" He demands.

No warning is given to you before a burst of fire surrounds the entirety of the hero's body. You scream in frustration as the heat consumes your hands, but your grip on him doesn't let up. Even though the bullet you shot at him earlier didn't completely paralyze him, it's clear that he is struggling to move. His movements are slightly delayed and he's a little weaker now.

You can tell by the fact that, instead of simply shoving your body off of his, he used his quirk instead. His muscle strength won't help him now.

He can only rely on his quirk.

Your vision turns red as you release one hand from his throat and clench it into a fist. Blow after blow, your fist slams against his face. Over and over again until blood is spirting from his nose.

You laugh happily, "I fucking hate you!"

Meanwhile, Dabi spits out blood onto the floor, not bothering to wipe the bodily fluid from his mouth as he glares at Shouto. The younger male is huffing and barely able to keep his body straight up. His lungs are struggling to take in air and his movements had gradually began to become sloppy.

Dabi doesn't look like he is in much better shape. Smoke is coming from the new scars that was starting to etch into his skin. He's bleeding from cuts on his face, caused by the hero's sharp icicles.

But when it comes to quirks, Dabi has more of an advantage. It's obvious to everyone in the room.

"Isn't that ironic!" Dabi laughs, "I was always stronger than you after all!"

Shouto growls as he sends more fire at the villain, almost stumbling. "What the hell are you talking about!?"

Dabi simply charges through the male's fire with that horrific smile still on his face. Once he's within arms length, Dabi punches him and the sound of something cracking in Shouto's face makes his heart rush with excitement.

The villain feels delirious, high on some kind of satisfaction that he gets from finally beating up his younger brother. Finally being able to prove to himself that he's better than him.

More perfect than his little brother will ever be.

Bloody tears are running down Dabi's face as he grabs Shouto and pulls him into a tight hug.

The move is sickeningly sweet, which confuses the hero, until the deranged murderer sets his entire body on fire. Fiendish blue flames eat away at both Dabi and his brother's skin. The pain is terribly strong and nearly unbearable for both brothers, but as Shouto is kicking, struggling, and groaning, trying to free himself from the possibility of being burned alive, Dabi is just contentedly giggling and gripping his sibling closer in his arms.
