All Of The Lights

Chapter 5: Tom and Jerry

(Y'all don't even know- I just thought of two cartoon characters, this chapter was almost named "Gun" and "Him".)

8:45am

Throughout the Todoroki house, there was the noise of construction. Or at least, it sounded that way. Their father was throwing one of his tantrums.

"What's wrong with him?" Natsuo asked. He had just gotten home from a friends house and was confused by their father's behavior. He wasn't surprised but he didn't know why he was acting up like this.

As Fuyumi cooked breakfast for herself and her brother, she listened to the news through her headphones. She found this kind of thing interesting but tragic. Especially because it was most likely an accident with no known cause.

"Fuyu?"

"Oh, what?" She asked, removing her headphones.

"Why's the guy being a toddler?"

"Oh? Turn on the news. It's all everyone is talking about!" Fuyumi said. Natsuo turned to the tv and turned it on. The first channel to turn on was always the news.

"Tragedy for the country"

"The Yaoyorozu's, a family known for their efforts to assist heroes and design hero attire, have been rushed to the hospital. Late last night, a fire broke out, burning the Yaoyorozu Estate to the ground. The mother who was severely burned called emergency services. As there is no certain cause of the fire, police believe this was an accident, not arson."

"He's friends with the Yaoyorozu family?" The second youngest Todoroki son asked.

"Mhm. It's all they're talking about on the news. They're still searching for their daughter and pets, but Murielle and August are being treated already. It's a shame." Fuyumi sighed, remembering the food on the stove.

"Damn."

Momo backed up against a wall, praying this was just a dream. She didn't expect to get saved if this was real, but she really hoped she would. Her mom could come and save her. She was a hero. Maybe another hero would save her. She didn't know what she was thinking. She was desperate.

Momo could hear the door to whatever she was in, begin to open. It sounded like a garage door. She was probably in a warehouse or someone's home. She was in the corner, lightly sobbing.

"Aww... she's scared."

"Where am I?" She asked. The lights turned on.

She was correct, she was in a warehouse. She started whispering to herself, not knowing what the hell was going on. She knew she had been kidnapped but was questioning why. She couldn't have been any use to them. Then there was her dad. He could make something if he just thought of it and it was near him. She had to try very hard just to get something she wanted. A simple rubber ducky or something like that. Took a while to make.

Then again, she was in a warehouse. An empty one at that. August could easily escape just by making something simple. That must've been why they wanted her. She had a special version of his quirk.

She was just harder to deal with.

Not because she was tall and strong or anything. She wasn't as strong as her mom or dad. She also didn't have much to offer except for her quirk. Her quirk was what was hard to deal with, not her.

"You'll be staying here for the next few hours."

So it wasn't some hoodlums that just kidnapped her. It was part of an organization.
