After we finished cleaning, Todoroki decided to tell us more of his tragic backstory.

"Another brother?" Izuku questioned.

"I thought you five were close," Fuyumi admitted. "So, I figured you would have told them all about Toya."

"It's not exactly an easy subject to approach."

"Natsu and Toya were incredibly close when we were growing up," Fuyumi explained. "They spent their days playing together. It happened soon after Mom was hospitalized. Somehow... her condition got even worse when she was committed. To the point where Shoto couldn't go see her. But things have gotten much better. Especially since Shoto started visiting. Our family's been making progress. Except Natsu. He can't let go of his anger towards our dad. In his mind, our father basically killed Toya."

"So, that's why his face was all angsty," Bakugo frowned.

"I'm sorry," the white-and-red-haired girl apologized again. "I didn't mean to drop this on you."

Izuku shook his head. "No! You're good!"

"Time for me to take you back to school." Oh shit! Endeavor's back!

"Yes, sir!"

We thanked Fuyumi for the meal once again before heading into the car. You would think that someone this rich could afford a bigger car. In the front was Endeavor and his driver, while the rest of us were in the back. There were only three seats. Todoroki was the lucky one, getting a window seat to himself. The other window seat went to Bakugo, and Katsumi who sat on his lap. That left the middle seat to Izuku and I. This is so fucking awkward.

"I want to see you progress on a faster timetable," Endeavor said. "Look at shifting your schedules. In addition to our weekends, I want you all working two days during the school week."

"That's how it was for us last time," I recalled.

"We've also got to prepare for our finals," Izuku brought up. "Hey (Y/n), can you help me with English?"

I thought about it for a second. "Sure."

Bakugo slammed his elbow backwards, so he could get into earshot of the driver. Doing this also pushed the green haired boy on top of me. What are the chances?

His face was beet red, and his voice was quiet as a mouse. "I'm so sorry!"

"So lame! Why doesn't the number one hero have a bigger car?!"

"Oh great," the driver sarcastically spouted. "The brat's not happy with his free ride?! Endeavor, since when do you hang out with ungrateful children like him?"

"Ever since I found myself at the top."

"Zounds! I guess that does change a man!"

What the fuck is Zounds?

The driver then shouted it again, as the car swerved. Almost instinctively, Izuku threw his arm around my side. A man was being held hostage by some kind of bonds that restrained him in the air.

"It's Natsu!" Todoroki realized.

"There, the lines on the road!" Katsumi gasped, as the white lines lifted off of the pavement, whipping themselves in various directions.

"Quit talking!" The driver grumbled. "You'll bite your tongue off!"

The villain behind this stood in front of the car's path, causing the driver to hit the guard rail and spin out of control. Before the car was caught up in the man's quirk, Endeavor hopped out of the vehicle.
