Your POV

I woke up early the next morning, before anyone else, I slipped on an oversized hoodie and creeped downstairs, if this was going to be my dads last meal, it may as well be his best. Tears pricked my eyes as I got out all the things I needed too cook this feast.

*************************************************

Daisuke (Dads) POV (whooppp)

I awoke to a smell of smoke and the beeping of the fire alarm, travelling up the stairs, I carefully climbed out of bed and stared the decent down the stairs, as I turned into the kitchen, Yuki stood there, her black hair dangled over her forehead, as she looked up at me with a guilty grin spread across her face. The kitchen was a mess, things were burning in pots, as toast was smoking in the toaster, flour and eggs plastered the whole kitchen, and on the counter lay 4 neatly set out plates with a full cooked breakfast. What a way to go.

I smiled to myself, looking at my beautiful daughter, flour scattered in her black hair, her enchanted purple eyes filled with joy, yet a sudden sadness when she realised this would be her last meal with me.

Suddenly her body slammed into mine, we both fell to the floor in fits of giggles and sobs, I guessed we were being too loud, because suddenly two extra bodies joined the pile on.

Your POV

Me and Haruku were just finishing washing the pots - and the entire kitchen - from breakfast. As I dried my hands on a rough kitchen towel, he walked over to me, tears brimmed his forest green eyes, he wrapped his arms around me and cradled my head into his chest. My hands gripped his shirt as I began crying, and I couldn't stop.

After today Id never see my dad again, never see his smile, never hear his voice, it was all beginning to hit me. Haru pulled away and looked me in the eyes, his happiness had leaked out, he just looked empty.
"I'll be strong enough for you, you and Zuo, I promise" He looked at his feet as tears fell once again falling against the polished floor.
"I know you will" I lifted his head and gave him a reassuring smile, before we both walked into the living room with my dad and little Zuo, playing with his All Might action figures.

*************************************************

The hospital waiting room was overwhelmingly clean, people were scattered spontaneously around the room, and only indistinct whispers, and the doctors as they called people in for appointments.

It was all too real, my leg was violently shaking up and down, and my dad turned to me.
"Thankyou for coming Yuki, it really meant a lot, I knew you'd want to be here, and since it wouldn't be sensible to bring Natzuo, I thought Haruku would do a better job at taking care of the little bugger" he smiled at me, he was too cheerful, it made me shiver.

"Daisuke Takahashi" A small and skinny woman smiled at us from the doorway, she also was too cheerful, how dare they all be so happy, this would be the day that me and my brothers, became orphans.

*************************************************

I sat up fast and hard, as I realised everything was suddenly dark. I glanced around the room to see my father, laying lifeless on a hospital bed, his arms crossed over his shoulders and his body was unnervingly rigid. I had fallen asleep during his procedure. I checked the clock mounted above the door way, 6:17pm, had I really slept that long? I was startled out of my thoughts as a friendly looking doctor walked in, and told me that he was gone, and that I should really head home. I stood up and gave him a nod, before running out of the hospital.

I ran all the way down the street, the cold breeze hitting me like a punch the the face, I continued running, not bothering to look back, not bothering to even look where I was going, I needed to clear my head and what better way to do so then run, run as far as my body would possibly take me, run until I couldn't any more.

Soon my chest started burning, my gasps for breath became deep, as my body stopped me from pushing any further. I was in the middle of the town, almost everything was closed, except from restaurants and pubs, and although it was only early evening, it was winter, and the sky was pitch black and clouded, not a single star to be seen.

I tried to grab my bearings as to where abouts I was, but I couldn't concentrate, people were stumbling out of pubs, music was playing far too loud, and just as I thought it couldn't get worse, a cold droplet of water landed on my forehead. Rain.

I glanced down at my exposed legs, I was wearing shorts and my dads shirt, it was sunny earlier, but now I was shivering, cold and alone, exposed and vulnerable in the middle of Hosu City centre. My father was gone, my mother was gone, my brothers would have been occupied at home, I didn't have my phone on me, and the longer I stood here in the rain the more susceptible I was becoming to illness.

Without thinking I darted down a dark alleyway, more for shelter then escape, however I hadn't noticed it was a dead end, that's until I heard an eerie and dark laugh from behind me, I was cornered, and this Man was looking at me, wide-eyed, as a smile crawled from ear to ear.
