Todoroki woke up inside the hospital. He didn't remember how he got here. The last thing that he remembered what seeing Natsuo and Fuyumi arriving at the last moment. He tried to sit up, but he felt the stringing pain course through his stomach. "Doctor said that it's best if you stayed down," a voice spoke up. Todoroki recognized that voice clearly, "Natsuo?" Todoroki glanced to the side to see Natsuo sitting in the chair. "How long-"

"Two days," Natsuo answered shortly. "We need to talk, Sho. It might be hard for you to hear." Shouto shook his head and sat up despite Natsuo's words. "Why should I listen to anything you say? You hit my friend with a car." Shouto narrowed his eyes as Natsuo glanced down, "I work for the Meta Liberation Army. The leader of the league demanded to have you killed. I couldn't go through with it. Touya was there, and they could've killed him. I know that you're Night-Flame. Dad would've been upset except he's dead." Shouto's eyes widen at Natsuo's words, "What happened to the body?"

"Touya took care of it. You managed to give all of us a fright. You almost got yourself killed going against dad." Shouto shook his head, "It didn't concern you, Natsuo. You could've let me die there if I'm bothering you so much." Natsuo grabbed his little brother's hands, "Sho, I want to know the truth." Shouto looked confused, "What-" Natsuo interrupted his little brother he could finish his sentence. "I want to know if you were rape or not!"

Shouto didn't expect his brother to ask that question. "W-what are you talk about?" Shouto pulled his hands away from his brother. Shouto was shocked to hear his brother ask him that. "Natsuo, are you okay? That never happened to me." Natsuo shook his head, "Sho-"

"I thought you said we were going to ask him together." Shouto glared at Touya as Fuyumi stood beside him with coffee. Touya slid the door close and walked inside. "Shouto, I know what happened. It's best if you tell everyone the truth." Shouto shook his head, "Nothing happened!" Shouto held onto his bed sheets tightly. Fuyumi placed the coffee cups down. "His name was Giran, wasn't it?" Shouto froze in fear at that name.

"H-How?" Shouto managed to get one word to come out as he felt like he couldn't speak. Since the accident, he wanted to avoid every mention of it. Endeavor forced him to keep it a secret. He didn't want anyone to know about the accident. He tried to pretend that it was just a nightmare, but he couldn't. He hid his emotions away since he was busy with Inasa. Yoarashi never questioned Shouto's mental health when they first made love. Shouto just wanted to get rid of the feeling of being a dirty toy.

"Shouto, Giran is a part of the league. I left the league when I found out the truth." Fuyumi and Natsuo were also shocked by the news. Touya had no regrets about leaving the league. All for One crossed the line, and he is going to pay. Fuyumi decided to ignore Touya's words and walk forward to her little brother. "This isn't the safest place to be talking about this. However, I don't care anymore. Giran wanted me to send you a message. He's obsessed with you." Shouto gripped his hair and shook his head. "Shut up! He can't hurt me now! I-I can protect myself. I don't need anyone's help." Shouto pulled his hands out and glared at his siblings. "How can I trust you guys, if you've never done anything to protect me in the past!" Shouto let the tears run down his cheeks, "Touya and Natsuo, you both tried to kill me. Fuyumi, you betrayed me. You never fucking think how it felt. If you want an answer, yes, he did rape me. Dad wanted no one to know. You know what hurts the most is that I was just a toy, not a real person! He paid Giran to follow us. I was trying to protect Yaoyorozu, but they-" Shouto covered his eyes as he tried to speak.

"Sho, you don't have to-" Shouto pushed away from Natsuo. "No, you all wanted to know the truth. Dad paid for them to hurt us, but it went too far. Dad told me that boys don't get raped. He told me that I should've been stronger than that, but it hurt so much. I tried to pretend that it never happened. It's been five years since it happened, and I still haven't moved on." Shouto wiped the tears away. "Shouto, it wasn't your fault. I should have never left you guys alone. I-I promised mom that I wouldn't let anything horrible happen to you. I should've protected you guys, but I failed. Nothing I can say can ever make you forgive me, and I understand fully," Touya told them.
