—————-

Fate is a tricky thing. Sometimes, instead of "someday", it means forever.

Looking up at Dabi as he walked through the alleyways to avoid him and yourself from being caught made this life a bit more tolerable.

"It is interesting how that quirk of yours works. You should be at least be older yet you look as if you are 15."

"You are the only one in this world that I have entrusted the details of my quirk to, not even our pathetic excuse of a father found out, he only assume that I was quirkless. He only saw me as a punching bag when I acted out of place, disowned me, abused me-you were the only one who keep the sense of alienation and anomie away for a short while Touya."

He used his elbow to break open a rusty door and enter an abandon building.

"How about you enlighten me on the
years we missed?"

You sighed, "Sure, with the full detailed version or synopsis version?"

"Short and sweet."

"Well..."

Flashback

"Y/N ...you have a quirk?"
You in shock and slowly turned around to see Touya looking at you and soon his eyes widen at the sight before him.

There you were with a blade of grass in your palm floating in your left hand with a tiny white will-o-wisp floating in your right hand.

"H-help me...don't tell him...please..." you begged with tears streaming down your eyes as you looked at your older brother for some sort comfort. His eyes soon shifted back to the hand of the will-o-wisp to see the sight of harsh burns coating your hand.

Just from his stare, you can tell that his stomach had dropped as he realized what was happening.

"Help me...Tou..." you stifled through your tears, "Please don't tell him..."

End of Flashback

"After the large turpentine flame you created in Sekoto Peak and it was believed that we had been incinerated after finding part of your jawbone and my rib, the sight was largely closed off. The night you return to see if I had gradually rising from the ashes, a young yakuza member of the Shie Hassaikai found me and took me in with his girlfriend. However, that life was short lived when his girlfriend died by hero's failing to protect her and him asking me to kill everyone in the vicinity. Since then, he disowned me and I had been living in foster cares making sure to hide my identity not only from our terrible family but from the leader of the Yakuza. I did this by only giving either my first name only or a pseudo last name.However, after saving a UA person in the middle of their internship and getting to know him during my time in the Yakuza...I actually had a friend. I didn't tell him fully about my quirk but he was amazed by it. He worried about me a lot and made sure I was okay every chance he got. He then wanted to make sure I had a better life...kind of like you wanted...so he somehow slipped it to a teacher that I was in a foster system and that I would be a good fit to UA...and I think you can fill in the gaps from there." You explained

Those signature ice turquoise blue eyes were locked in deep thought as he sighed at the story. He knew the both of y'all been through hell and back.

"All because at the time none of his children bore the ideal Quirk he was hoping for...well except for-"

"Yeah...I saw him and he didn't have any idea on who I was and I guess I wasn't really as focus to know who he was...I was quite distracted on other things."

"Oh?"

"It doesn't matter anyway," you mumbled turning your head away from him.

His skin was rough, calloused and burned pulled you into his embrace. You could smell the scent of ash and smoke surrounding him. Although, the years passed and he was different from back then with his now deep purple patches that were pieced together with staples, he was still the same Touya Todoroki, the older brother you knew, loved, and protected me from Endeavor's abuse back when he tossed us to the side and Shoto was his prized child.

"Honestly, Y/N...I'm glad that my fire didn't really kill you that day...I'm happy that my little sister is safe."

"No matter how many times I burst into flames, I can always rise from the ashes."
