Tsuyo's Truth

A/N: You can see an art of Tsuyo unmasked by going to the linktree on my wattpad page. It's a big spoiler so definitely look at your own risk.

Violet POV:

"I've waited a long time to finally kill you." Tsuyo stated to Endeavor, hovering the glowing jewel above their hand.

The ground practically shook with the surprising revelation from someone unexpected. The space went lethally silent as our group took in the magnitude of Tsuyo's words, but not for very long...

Touya's chuckle started out quiet, causing me, Shouto, and Endeavor to look over at him before he lost it.

He was having the time of his life with the way things were unveiling, laughing loudly now at the confused look of Endeavor and his youngest brother still knocked onto the ground with his, now bloody, nose, thanks to Tsuyo's jewel explosion.

"Hah! Join the club!" Touya cackled to Tsuyo, barely side glancing at his father with his next words. "Ah. Look at that? You just piss everyone off, huh? Seems like a you problem."

Endeavor seemed unfazed by the threat from the masked person. For that, I can't blame him. As the number one hero, there are countless people who want to kill him everyday. I'm sure to him, Tsuyo is no different than the average troubled cliche.

But, once again, his flaws to underestimate will be the thing to kill him. Especially when it comes to Tsuyo. The person strong enough to compete as Midas' right hand person for so many years. The poor soul that was locked away like an animal for eternity, having been trained to kill anything that dares to breathe in a way Midas disapproves of.

Tsuyo's not heartless. But, they've been convinced to think they are. They've been persuaded to think they have nothing to lose. Nothing to live for. And that's just as dangerous.

If Endeavor thinks he'll be having an easy win against Tsuyo, he's fatally mistaken.

But, judging from the composure in his arrogant, blue Todoroki eyes, it seems my assumptions were correct.

"If you'd like to have any chance of surviving tonight, I highly suggest you don't try." Endeavor stated lowly, releasing his bleeding shoulder to stand up straight. "My son is inside that building with his life on the line. If saving him means I go directly through you, I won't hesitate to end you where you stand."

Finally letting the true nature of their emotions crack through their stoic exterior, Tsuyo blurted out a genuine chuckle at Endeavor's words, swiping the glowing jewel out of midair to taunt him a little more.

My brows furrowed as their body language slowly gained back its humanity-watching them lift their arms and shift their feet with growing adrenaline instead of standing so mechanical and dead the way they always do.

Even the way they spoke their next words came out different, unable to play the part of the heartless robot any longer as they'd finally shattered.

And it seems that was how they wanted it, tired of hiding-no longer caring.

"Oo. How noble you are." They mocked, wiggling their gloved fingers in the air with feigned wickedness. "Your words don't scare me, you know. Regardless, I don't plan on surviving anyways, so long as you die. You won't be getting through that front door, I'll make sure of it. Not for Midas. Or his stupid, fucked up plans. Or for anyone else."
