Teka was making breakfast for all of us. I tried to help but she kicked me out of my own kitchen. "Get out! You cook for them every day. I don't get that luxury." I laugh. I set up the table. I pour orange juice in the glasses. "Kids come wash your hands!" Teka yells. Everyone piled in. Enji walks in a minute later. "Alright I'm off to work." He tells us. He pulls me into a hug, his hands squeezing my ass. I remove his arms to his sides, holding them down. He leans in and kiss me deeply. I mug him. "You really are mad at me." "No I'm not mad. You have a girlfriend." I remind him. "We haven't made it official yet." "You still have Rei." "We're just dating." He responds as he tries to kiss me again. "But you said your heart beats for her." I remind him as I dodge to the left. "Did I? Well that is true. I still want to make sure I'm correct." He tries to kiss me again. "You don't feel the same way about anyone else." I add, dodging to the right. "No I don't." His hand reaches out to my face. "And you look forward to the wedding knowing she's the one." I slap his hand out of the way. Enji sighs. "I don't know what I've done to piss you off but I'm done." "Well for starters, you're a dumbass." Teka tells him. "I would've married the mother of my children because I'd already be in love with her. Instead of having her watch me date, fall in love and possibly marry someone else." Natsuo chimes in, while on his phone. "Enough!" Enji barks. "M-Mom?" Natsu stutters. I turn my attention to him. "What is it?" I ask, walking closer. He shows me his phone. "Pro Hero Kento gets candid on former Pro Hero Icy Hot. Sex, drugs, alcohol and abuse." I read. My body starts to shake. "What? N-No." I sit down in a chair. "He's lying on you." Natsu say. He reads the article out loud. It got worse by the second. "He claims to have an audio recording of you admitting to the abuse." "That's a lie!" Fuyumi barks. Natsu plays the video. "I abused Shoto. I burned Shoto because my people are abusive. I manipulated Enji into getting me pregnant because if he was black, he'd be a deadbeat." The audio of my voice said. "I-I didn't say that! Well I said that but he edited it! I said the other people said I burned him because they believe my kind is abusive and that I manipulated Enji." My leg shake uncontrollably. "Kento says you're strung out on drugs while a complete drunk. He's claiming you two slept together. He's calling you easy. That you're the worst person on earth." Natsu continues. "Stop!" Enji yells. He grabs Natsu's phone and throws it against the wall, breaking it. Enji storms up to me. He was towering over me. Tears start running down my face. "What did you say to him?" Enji asks. "I told h-him that we addressed the rumors. All of them. That's all." "So you opened your mouth and said all of this to a man you know nothing about? Is it true? Did you sleep with him?" I wipe my tears and nod. "Yes. Last night before I came back home." "Are you that fuckin horny and stupid that you not only open your mouth but your legs to someone you barely know?!" "Enji Isamu Todoroki! You watch your fuckin mouth. We did not raise you to disrespect women." Teka snaps after slapping her son. "You're right. I'm sorry. I know this is hard for you right now-" I get up, slapping his hand away as he reaches out to touch my face. "I'm going to find out who he is. All the details of him." Natsu tells me. "I'm gonna kill him. He's dead!" Touya screams. "Touya stop. You can't kill him. You're a pro hero as well and I'll be damned if any of my children get blacklisted then be deemed as a villain. You are Dabi." "Then I'll quit being a hero and kill him." "Give up on your dream? And for what? Don't be so reckless and do something stupid." "But he-" "Touya Josiah Todoroki!" I inhale and exhale deeply. I grab his face. "I know you're trying to protect me. But please don't give up your future for this. I want you to think clearly. Be rational about this. You'll regret this later. I know you're angry. I know you hate him." "Mama I can feel your pain. I'm so sick and tired of seeing you get hurt over and over again by no good men." He replies as he holds my hands that is rested on his cheeks. I can see the tears forming in his eyes. I smile. "I know baby. But please stop worrying so much about me. Don't lose yourself. Okay?" Touya nods. Touya's an empath. I know it's hard on him. He wears his heart on his sleeve. All my children wear it on their sleeve. Adding to the fact that he is an empath, it makes it harder on him mentally. "I want you to go upstairs and take a bath. Then do some meditation. Don't go into work today." Touya nods again and bends down to hug me tightly. "I love you so much mama." "I know. I love you too." He pull away and I get on my toes to kiss his forehead. He walks out of the kitchen and upstairs. "I think you should confront him and then leave him alone." Jr finally speaks. I turn my attention to Shoto. "I don't ever want to see his face again." I tell him. "Just get what you have to say off your chest to him." Shoto advised. "Mama I'm so sorry." Fuyumi rubs my back. "It's okay sweetie. You and Shoto need to go back to school." Fuyumi nods. Natsu walks up to us. "Are you sure you're going to be okay?" I nod. "I'm heading off too. I promise to find everything about him." "Don't doxx him. Don't stoop to his level. Two wrongs don't make a right and you'll play right into his hands. You'll prove to him that our people are violent. Show him he's wrong." Natsu nods. "I understand." Natsu disappear to get his backpack. "Y/N I-" I start to walk out of the kitchen as Enji speaks. "Dumbass." I hear Teka. Everyone was in the family room. Except Touya. I hug them all, kissing their cheeks. "Be safe and come back to me." I tell them. "Love ya. Never put anyone above ya." We say in unison. "I'm heading out too." I hear as Enji enters. "Bye." I tell him before heading upstairs. I walk into my room and sit on my bed. I hunch over, hands in face. I couldn't stop the tears from overflowing. How could I be so stupid? I was blinded by the way he agreed those people are evil. It was all an act. Jr's right. I need to confront him. His true colors came into light. "Come here." The deep voice said. It was Enji's. I was so lost in thought. I feel as he tug on my hands. I look up to see him on his knees in front of me. I snatch my hands away and get up. "Y/N." "I have nothing to say to you." I walk to my bedroom door and open it. Enji closes the door, standing in front of it. "Then I talk and you listen." "Why so you can degrade me some more?!" I back away. "I can't believe this is happening to me. You were right. I can't believe this!" I start pacing. "Why did I even open my mouth?" I start sliding things off my dresser. "Why did I open my legs? Am I really that horny, desperate and lonely that I folded so quickly to some stranger?!" I start throwing everything. "This keeps happening every single fuckin time and I am over it!" I slam my dresser to the ground. "Y/N!" I feel as Enji grab me and shake me. Y/N stop! Stop it!" I pull away. "Leave me alone!" He pulls me close to him. "Enji let me go!" He hugs me tightly, stroking my curls. "Shhh...it's okay. It's going to be okay. I will take care of everything. I promise you." I start sobbing. "I got you." His warm embrace makes me melt and I can't stand it. "I love you Y/N. I got you for life. He's not getting away with it. I will end him." Enji promises. I pull away. "No. I don't need your help. I can do this on my own." I sniff. "Baby I got you. I'll take care of him and do damage control. Don't worry about him." "I am not your baby. Please just go." "Y/N-" "Get out!" I scream, pointing at the door. Enji sighs before leaving. I walk through the mess and climb into bed. I get under the blanket. I just want to hide all day. I hear a knock on my door. "Go away Todoroki!" "Mom..." It was Touya. I hear my door open up. Footsteps approach to my bed. I feel as he climb into my bed. He got under the blanket. "I thought you were too old for a mother's love." "I am. But you need me right now." I pull Touya close to me. "You're right. I almost blew my entire career and life over this. It's just...it's like I'm the only one who can feel your pain and it breaks me." Touya was facing opposite of me but I know he's crying. "It's because you're an empath. You feel for everyone who you care about." I rub his shoulders. "I hate it..." "Why?" "Because it makes me overprotective. And I want to hurt people who hurt the people I love." "Okay I think this isn't about me. Sit up." I tap his shoulder and sit up. "Is it Hinata?" I ask. Touya sits up and nods. "Even though I blew it, I want to do everything for her. I know when she fights with her fiancé. I know her mom died during her argument with her fiancé. I felt all of her pain. I want to go to the ends of the earth for her. I want to move mountains for her." I cup Touya's face in my hands. My thumb strokes his cheek. "Baby I know It's hard. I know how you feel. But I have to tell you this. Leave her alone. Dial it back from her. You can't keep hurting yourself. Correct me if I'm wrong but you're skydiving into a volcano for her and she won't step in a puddle for you. You take all of her pain and you try to fix it. I know it's your job as Dabi to save the world. But Touya and Dabi are not obligated to put someone else's mental health above theirs. Yes I'm saying be selfish. If you don't, it'll harm your mental health so bad and you'll go insane. I understand you want to be there for her as a friend. You are my son. My first born. I'm always going to prioritize yours and your siblings mental health over strangers. Unless her life's in danger, you don't have to be there for her. I was like that with your father." "I know mom. I started thinking about it when I took my bath and meditated. It's not good for my own sanity. It hurts me too much." I pull him into a hug. "I know it does. It's a painful feeling. Your heart won't rest until that person is better. It'll start crying for other people. And if she gets mad cause you are putting yourself first and stop skydiving into the gates of hell for her, then she is a terrible person. That means she never deserved you in the first place. Not as a lover nor as a friend." Touya pulls away. "When you put it that way, it doesn't sound as bad as I thought it did." "It's not. Other people will think so, because they wish they could have the strength to pull back and think about themselves. That's why I'm teaching you this. Although I should've done this when you were younger." I get out of bed and start cleaning my room. I lift the heavy dresser with ease. "Are you okay though?" I look at him. "Are you okay Touya?" He gets out of bed. "I will be." I nod. Touya leaves my room. I look at my dresser and sigh. I was really destroyed. "Looks like you need a new one." Touya says as he come back. He had a broom, dustpan and trash bags. He begins to sweep up the broken pieces. "Did dad piss you off?" "Yes and no." I tie the full bags. "What are you going to do with dad?" I shrug. "Nothing. I don't care about him." "That's a lie. Didn't you of all people teach us lying is wrong?" "Well yes. And it's not a lie. It's more of a manifestation." "Manifestation?" "Yes. The more I say it and believe into it, the less I can actually care about him. Speaking it into existence." "I see. Why are you using social media lingo?" "What's a social media lingo?" "'Speaking it into existence' that whole thing." I shake my head. "Nah. Every lingo you see on social media comes from us." "And by us you mean black people right?" I nod as I hold the bag while he dumps trash in. "We're the blueprint of everything. All of us. So the next time some random who isn't black say that, just know they don't know it's origin." "Why not?" "Because it's stolen and rebranded as theirs just like everything else in this world." Touya groans. "Is this another history lesson?" I laugh. "No. I've drilled the real truth of history in your heads when you all were younger. From the moment you all started walking, talking and using your quirk, I had to teach you all that you guys are different. Special. Valuable. And that there will be people who will not only see you but treat you differently." "You were right. That's why there's a rise on missing people here in Japan. Missing black people to be exact. Because our Melanin costs more than gold, they're disappearing and being experimented on." I stop. "What?" Touya nods. "Why didn't your father tell me this?" "He doesn't know. He put me on in charge of this mission. All four of us are gathering information." "Four-you mean Natsu, Fu and Jr?" Touya nods. "Jesus. How long has this been going on?" "Not long. We're being wiped out mom. We're being sold. Trafficked if you may." I stop and grab Touya. "I want you to listen to me real good. Be very careful. These people are highly dangerous. They're not some punk who wants to be a villain. These are professional villains. I know this is a lot but please look after yourself and your siblings." Touya grabs my hands. "I know mom. We're being very careful. I promise you, we won't be next." Touya's phone rings. He looks at it. "It's Natsuo." He answers. "Hey bro you're on speaker. I'm with mom right now." "Does she know?" Natsu asks. "It slipped out." Natsu sighs. "Fine. But I've done some deep research on Kento. It's getting more disturbing by the second." "Spit it out." Touya presses on. "He's part of the human trafficking. But he may not be the boss." "What?!" We ask completely shocked. "And he's one of the people who said awful things about mom when she first got pregnant. All the way up to the miscarriage." "That bastard he's dead!" Touya screams. He looks at me. "I-I know what you're going to say, but before you say it-" "You're right. He is dead. He's not a pro hero. It was all a façade. God your father was right to not trust him." "He targets black moms who seek relationships the most. Lure them in with his charms then strike their families. It's a lot easier to kidnap children and the elderly. As for couples, he befriend them first. Not only is their melanin is being extracted, their organs are harvested and sold off as well on the black market. The master plan is to eradicate us all and restore Japan's faith of having no dark colored human beings." Natsu goes on. I wanted to die. I also wanted to murder him. I walk to my closet. I pull out my old costume. "I'm joining this mission. You get to stay in charge." "Mom no." Touya rejects. "Our people are getting hunted. Your lives are far more in danger than it already was and you expect me to take it lying down?! Hell naw." Touya rubs his forehead. He does that when he gets stressed out. "Fine. But that suit won't fit you. After four kids, your body's changed. I'm not body shaming you. You just need to get resized." "I know I know." Touya hangs up. We finish cleaning up. Touya leaves. I get in the shower. After a while, I get dressed. I walk downstairs. "Come on." I tell Touya. "Where are we going?" "I need to get my new costume. And to get resized." I grab my car keys. We walk out and Touya locks the door. We get in the car and I pull off. Touya turns the music on. I drive. "Why didn't you marry a black guy? Why Endeavor?" "He wasn't my first choice. I've had quite a few black boyfriends. It just never worked out. One cheated. One died. And the first one, was a master manipulator. He sweet talked me into sleeping with him. Telling me we were going to get married and have kids. He left after he got what he wanted." "Wow I'm sorry." "It's all in the past. They were the only three boyfriends I had. I did date a white guy. He ghosted me but I wasn't really into him. I also dodged that bullet because he was abusive in his previous relationships. I dated a Japanese guy. But he wasn't just a Japanese guy. He was to inherit his family's wealth. His parents didn't approve of me and he got into an arrange marriage to his childhood friend who inherited generational wealth. Then there was this guy who was my friend. Victor Song. He was Korean. I liked him a lot. Turns out before I told him, he had a girlfriend. College friend. They've been dating two or three months. He plans on marrying her. He felt bad when I revealed that I liked him. He kept apologizing for it. That broke me. We remained friends for a while until I couldn't take it anymore. Seeing them together. I was happy he was happy but it hurt me." "You have bad luck with men. Well they were all shitty anyway." "Hey! Don't speak ill of Victor Song." "I'm sorry." I pull up to U.A. We get out and walk up. "Sorry ma'am you can't be here." One guard said. "I just need a favor." "State your name and business." The guy looked pretty young. And new. "I'm Touya Todoroki." He looks at my son. "You Endeavor's son? Older brother of Shoto?" "Yes and yes." "And you are?" "I'm the one who birthed them." The guy straightened up and cleared his throat. "I'm so sorry ma'am. What can we do for you?" "I just need to ask for a favor and speak to Principal Nezu." The guard spoke into his earpiece and we were able to get in. Touya leads me to Prescott's office. He knocks on the open door. "Prescott." He calls. She jumps. "Jesus fucking Christ Todoroki!" She screams. She messes up on her sewing and stands up. "Now look at what you made me do!" We walk in. "I'm sorry Prescott." Touya apologizes. She looks up at us. "T-Touya!" She blushes really hard. She starts shimmy shaking nervously. She starts blushing. I smile. She likes him. "Prescott, this is my mother Y/N-" Prescott gasps. "Mrs. Todoroki! It's an honor to meet you." "Oh I'm not married to Endeavor." "Well you should be. You birthed amazing heroes. What can I do for you two?" "My mom here needs a new costume." "Are you coming back into the hero world?!" "A little bit. Yeah." She squeals and hugs me. She pulls away. "Sorry that was inappropriate." "Nonsense." I hug her. "How would you like your new suit?" "Surprise me." She eye me. "I have something in mind." She takes my hand and leads me to the center of the room. She rummage through things. She grabs a tape measure and measures me. "How fast do you need it?" "How fast can you do it?" "In twenty-four hours. I'll make you my top client and priority." "Oh you don't have to do that." "It's an honor." She finish measuring me. We leave out. "Come on." Touya takes me to Principal Nezu's office. He knocks. "Come in." We walk in. "Ah Mrs. Todoroki. To what do I owe this pleasure?" We sit down. "Can you call in Shoto please?" I ask. "He's in class but sure." We watch as Principal Nezu make the announcement. "Everything alright? You're never here." He asks, concerned. "Yes. It's just a family emergency." I lie. There was a knock on the door a few minutes later. "Come in." Shoto walks in. "Mom? Is everything alright?" I get up. "Your brother has something to tell you." We all leave out of his office. We were far away outside. "What's up?" Jr asks. "We got more info on the number three hero. He's part of a human trafficking organization. He's targeting black people. Extracting our melanin, harvesting organs and selling them." Touya explains. Jr looks at me. "So that means he was targeting you." I nod, tears brimming my eyes. "I've joined in this mission." "I want you to keep seeing him. Don't be suspicious or he'll find out. Shoto, I want you to keep a close eye on all the black students here. You and Fuyumi both keep track. If anyone is suddenly missing, let me know as soon as possible." Touya instructs. Jr's flames come on. "He makes my blood boil." He angrily says as he clench his fist. "That's cause you're on fire." Touya points out. I grab Shoto's face. The side that wasn't on fire. "Calm down baby. We will get him okay? We're going to end this." He looks at me. "How can you be so calm? He's hunting us down one by one and picking us off. He's killing us!" I nod. "I know. I had my fair share of anger too. Take a ten to fifteen minute break if you can and calm yourself down. You still have school. And inform your sister immediately." He turns off his flames and I kiss his forehead. "Go back to class. I'll see you the next time you come home." I hug him and he heads back inside. Touya and I walk back to my car. I drove off. "She likes you." "Who?" Touya asks. "Prescott." "I know. But I only see her as a friend." "She knows that?" "Of course. I'm not going to lead her on." "Keep your options open. You'll be surprised your one and only could be in front of your face." I tell him.
