SLAP!
His father smacked him again, for no pure reason other than hatred for his young son Tenko..His mother did nothing but stand back and watch..marks and bruises littered his skin..gaining no sympathy.
"D-dad!-OW"
SLAP
Another, it was pointless to struggle against his father as it'd only end in extra beating..The poor raven haired boy had nothing to live for anyways..but he was only young..12 years of age..no child should suffer this way.
"Now get to school. Useless decaying bitch. I hope you decay yourself."
Tenko did nothing in defense and ran out the door..He always thought he was safe in school
Boy was he wrong
People were disgusted by his scars, no not from his parents..shimura suffers with excoriation disorder, an impulse to agressivley scratch your skin until it bleeds. He had scars all over his face, a large scratch across his lip and another over his eye among thousands, his neck equally as scarred.
As usual, he is thrown on the concrete, his weak, starved body too frail to defend himself.
"God why do you even come to school? You're so fucking ugly!"
Words didn't hurt him anymore, he remains unfazed by every hurtful comment..He let's the crowd gather around him as he began to endure sharp kicks and punches..He hugged his knees to his chest and supressed tears.. All of a sudden, a loud "HEY!" rings in his ears, and a shadow hovers over him. He peeks and Is greeted by the sight of a tall, rather handsome, redheaded boy reaching a hand down to him.
Tenko, having a dangerous quirk that made regular activities difficult reached for the boys hand and grabbing it, making sure not all of his fingers touched him.
"Are you okay?"
The boy whispered gently..making shimura want to cry
"M-mhm.."
The redhead smiles warmly..It was the type of smile you could never forget...
And shimura would certainly remember him.
Angrily, the taller redheaded male turns to face the crowd of bullies that had been traumatising poor Tenko. He hears someone whisper
"Ah shit..Endeavour son!"
He yells
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU?! HARMING AN INNOCENT, HELPLESS BOY! CURSE YOU ALL! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED!"
with that, everyone hurries off. Leaving them both in silence..comfortable silence.
"Eh...s-so uh..your name?"
"Me? Oh yeah I'm Touya! Touya Todoroki! "
"Ah..I'm. .i-im t-tenko shimura..."
"Nice to meet you tenko! Ah shit, I gotta go. See ya!"
Touya rushes off.
"Yeah..see ya.."
