Author's Note: Hey everybody and I'm back for more chapter! Like I said in the last chapter, I have added the Todoroki siblings and Endeavor to expand this story and also to know more about their past since Izuku wanted the police force and the hero community to expose the hidden truth about them before he later gives the information about League of Villains. Frankly, Izuku hates to be a pawn of the good side, but he decided to put his animosity towards them, instead, he wants them to fix their own issues first. What will the two top heroes do upon revealing their secrets? Will they face the truth or still blame a grudge on the former villain for they're not that prepared for this matter? Let's find out!

I would like to thank my lovely and loyal readers/reviewers for supporting this story! *virtual hugs*

Also, this chapter title is inspired by a song by Kjetil Morland. It suits Endeavor well because he's kind of a jerk to his family! LMAO

Enjoy reading, guys!

En Livredd Mann ("A Terrible Man")

"I took love all for granted and here I'm standing by myself. Now I wonder, yes I wonder. Could you ever take me back? I'm so sorry, my love~"

Flashback

Date: September 15 (7 days after the Deathsinger incident)

Time: 2:30 AM

Location: Todoroki household

Endeavor POV

Inside the big and spacy traditional Japanese-style master's bedroom where the leader of the Todoroki household and the father of Shoto, Enji Todoroki, who has been sleeping all alone on the king-size bed. But, it didn't look like he's having a peaceful rest as the sheets of the bed had been drenched with cold sweat coming out from his big and bulky body; his head moved left and right for few seconds interval; his feet letting out a multiple light kicks as it was like he is fighting someone; arms and hands just stayed on sides and didn't move a single muscle, a feeling when he's being pinned down and commanded not to move; and his shutting eyes and lips muttering words. In conclusion, he was not having a good peaceful slumber like all people do, but it was more of a bad and terrible nightmare, a nightmare of his dark past with his family.

Inside his puzzled mind, he heard screams, endless shouting coming from the unknown, begging for mercy and pleading to stop as the pain and agony were too much to endure. Until, he finally saw images of his first son who looked beaten and all dirty from tireless training he received from his possessively strict and prideful father who wanted him to surpass him and the current number one hero. Another one was the multiple bad episodes of domestic abuse he gave to his wife when quirk marriage was introduced to their clan.

"F-Father…! D-Don't you understand?! I just can't do it as my body feels weaker with all the training you've given me without a rest! I don't want to be your successor anymore or better yet I will leave this hell hole and follow my own path!"

The red-haired Touya Todoroki, with his scarred burnt arms, chest and legs, panting and almost burst in tears with frustration while giving his glare with anger towards his father.

"Yeah right! Doing all heroic acts in front of the public, but you're all acting like a villain in this household just because you want me and the rest of my brothers and sister to be your…TO BE YOUR PUPPETS WHO ALWAYS WANT TO ACHIEVE FURTHER GOALS FOR YOUR OWN PERSONAL INTEREST?! I CAN'T STAND WITH YOUR BULLSHIT ANY LONGER! MAYBE ONE DAY, YOU'LL SOON REALIZE HOW BAD YOU ARE AS A HERO, A FATHER, AND A HUMAN BEING!"

"Enji! This is enough! Shoto is only five years old and he is not ready yet!"

"Get out of the way!" Enji gave his wife a hard smack on her face, making Rei knocked down on the ground with tears falling while holding his youngest son, Shoto who felt exhausted, not wanting to do his father's orders anymore.

"M-Mother….a-are you alright?" The young boy with a worried look and tears hugged his mom tightly, not letting go. "P-Please…let me out of here, mother…! P-Please…!"

The mother cupped her son's cheeks, assuring that everything will be fine. "O-Of course, my son. Listen what I have to say, o-okay..? I-I want you to go back to your bedroom and rest…I'll talk to your father.."

"B-But mom…! H-He's going to hurt you—"

"Shoto, please…everything's going to be fine…okay?" Rei sealed a kiss on her son's forehead, encouraging him to leave the room.

Shoto stood up and hurriedly ran away from the two, but blocked by Endeavor's hot and flaming firewall.

"No one leaves in this room!" Enji glared at the two, looking irritated. The mother repelled her husband's quirk by summoning a crystallize ice wall and later shattered to let her son leave the room.

"Shoto, leave this room now!" She glanced back at her son with a cry, making Shoto left the room at a fast pace without looking back.

"GET BACK HERE, SHOTO!" Enji shouted before looking down with his body started to heat up and eyes filled with anger, ready to release out the temper inside him. Rei slowly stood up and backed away as she again prepared for everything she'll receive from her husband. Another domestic abuse between them. Though her ice quirk was not that powerful, she had no choice but to use it and fight back.

With big disobedience his children and his wife gave to him, Enji did not hesitate, but to rushed towards her and prepared to hit her with a violent punch. Rei, on the other hand, did her defensive stance with her ice quirk. The two shouted and about to clash each other…

"REEEEIIIIII!"

The sweaty and delirious Enji surprisingly woke up, shouted his wife's name as his heartbeat had been palpitating hard. He quickly sat up and looked around his bedroom before checking the alarm clock on his bedside. It's almost a quarter to 3 AM?

"Ahh…A dream..?" He whispered to himself.

It was a bad nightmare that made him woke up. He created the nightmare, resulting in most of his family members despised him for the treatment he gave to them for years. Though, trying to avoid it and not talking about in front of his children or acquaintances, those unpleasant dreams had been occurring more often.

He placed his one hand on his forehead and later covered his face, grunting. He is not the type of a person who is emotional, but his dirty past that'd been haunting and now coming closer to his doorstep he suddenly sobbed silently and started reflecting himself, thinking if he had a rewind quirk to go back in time, he would definitely do things differently in a good way. Forgetting the pride and greed for power, he just wanted to have a good life with a complete family around him. Letting his children achieve their own goals in life and not minding each of their personal dreams.

Muttering words of forgiveness of his damaged wife who was still residing in a mental facility, his eldest son who suddenly left without a word, his two other children, Natsuo and Fuyumi, who once being told a big disappointment, and lastly, his youngest son, Shoto, who always thinks his father nothing, but a bad father.

"R-Rei…Touya….Fuyumi….Natsuo….S-Shoto….p-please…f-forgive me….!"

Time: 12:45 PM

Place: Local Ramen house, Yokohama

Dabi, Natsuo, and Fuyumi POV

The two siblings spent their time savoring their hot meals and at the same time their bonding moments as a brother and a sister. Fuyumi even helped her little brother on a certain subject at his school which he unexpectedly accepted the help since her big sis is a teacher at an elementary school. They exchanged funny jokes and stories regarding school and work until they finished eating, paid the bill and left the ramen bar.

Unaware, a black purse bag was left on the seat and it seemed like Fuyumi forgot her bag at the bar. Natsuo, with his expensive looking big bike, started the engine and hopped on before looking at his sister.

"Our school is having a 3-day activity, but I'm not that interested so I'll just transport you to your workplace before I go home. Besides, I'm missing my geeky bedroom filled with manga" He grinned.

"That's great! I've recently tidied up your room before going to work. Thank you so much, Natsu but wait for a sec…. I think I forgot something at the bar…"

He smiled cheerfully. "D'awww how thoughtful of you, big sis!" He later blinked and raised an eyebrow. "Eh? What is it then?"

She tapped her cheek with her finger and gasped. "Oh my God! I forgot my purse and it has a storage drive where it contains all of my finished lesson plans to my students! I have to get back—". She was about to rush through the door bar when she was blocked by a spiky-haired, pierced, and scarred young adult holding her purse.

"Uhh….is this your bag, miss? You left it at the table when you left…" He offered him the bag.

Fuyumi's eyes widened upon looking at the stranger and her purse, before offering him a hug. "You don't know how much it means to me!"

He felt the cold and chilly embrace from the lady as he closed his eyes.

"Fuyumi~" He thought to himself.

She let him go and gladly took the bag. "My headmaster would get mad at me for losing my lesson plan for my class! Thank you so much!"

Natsuo, riding his bike tilting his head at the two before observing the black haired and muttered. "He looks creepy…"

The two bowed twice as Fuyumi thanked again before asking his name. "Again, thank you so much for returning my bag. I hope if you don't mind to ask your name, sir~!" She offered him her calling card as the young man gladly took it.

"My name's Tou….uhhh…" He pretended to cough and rubbed his temples. "….call me Dabi. My friends call me Dabi as my nickname."

"What a cool nickname. Dabi, huh?" Fuyumi chuckled before waving a hand to say goodbye and hopped behind her brother's bike.

"If you need me or anything, don't hesitate to call me~! I hope I could meet you next time!" The siblings wore their helmets before leaving.

Dabi just watched them leave, holding the calling card with a frown.

"Little brother Natsu, you look taller and bigger than me. I'm happy for standing up for yourself and I wish you finish your college with the degree you dreamed of…Fuyumi, you've grown strong, independent, and look beautiful…just like our mother…seeing you two like this is more than enough…" He mumbled to himself as his tears started to fall down on the ground.

"Please, take care of yourselves for war is coming….and I'll do whatever it takes to protect my siblings from the upcoming invasion…

Date: September 16

Time: 3:30 PM

Location: 10th floor, Izuku's private ward at Musutafu Medical Center

After the short interrogation and giving information to the detective which lasted thirty minutes, the green-haired Izuku Midoriya continued recovering inside his room by undergoing emotional rehab and further psychological treatments to restore his sanity back. A psychologist named Soraka with a memory quirk had been holding the teen's hands with their eyes closed, as the doctor did her walkthrough inside the other's mind. She saw memories. Some were good, but most of them were not good at all. Countless bullying, pressure from his peers, difficulty to face the cruel reality, and lastly, the episode which he ended his miserable life.

Izuku who also saw images of his dark past, silently sobbed while being held his hand by the doctor with his eyes shut. After a few more minutes of painful therapy, she let go of the patient's hand and carefully opened her eyes with sudden tears just fell on her face. She quickly wiped it using her wrist and took some notes.

"I've been treating children and young adults for four years as a psychologist with my memory quirk and I….I've never felt this kind of pain before…People around you in the past treated you differently like you had a disability. Until one final episode that….that I saw your past before you committed suicide inside your room, Izuku. I heard your cries…I felt your anguish...it's like the world betrayed you, you decided to give up in life and you hang yourself just to end your suffering…"

Izuku just looked down, not wanting to face the doctor for how he looked shameful of himself with his sad past, he couldn't stop crying even after the memory therapy finished.

"N-Now you understand the pain I had in my younger youth and 'till now, I am bringing these when I got revived…"

"I understand your frustration towards the society and reality in general, Izuku. But right now, you have to leave your strong hostility towards them for now." The doctor came closer to him before placing her hand on the other's shoulder.

"Even though you labeled yourself as either a villain or a vigilante, think about the people you saved from danger at the woods. The young boy you protected, trained to defend himself and treated as your own little brother. Think about your mom who's been loving you unconditionally ever since you were born and your father who sacrificed his work just to go home and be with you. Think about your childhood friend who treated you differently in the past, but changed his deeds wanting to start over with you, the young man who declared a confession for you, for you to get a second chance to change yourself. Lastly, think about your personal dream to be a hero and save others with a smile and that's what the number hero told to everyone on the television screen. I can clearly see that your ambitions are not wasted yet. There is still hope in this world, Izuku…"

Izuku shut his eyes and made his silent cry before being comforted by the psychologist for a hug. It seemed the teen's unbroken mask has been finally cracked and later shattered into pieces as all the emotions have flooded out in both heart and mind.

"S-Stop…! W-What are you…? W-Why are you doing this…?!"

"People still care for you, Izuku. Your life matter and that's important. If you have a little love and goodness left inside your heart, then you must keep on living. Live for them…!"

Outside of the private ward where Izuku's parents heard their son's cries and comfort from the doctor. Inko couldn't help but to cry as well with her box of tissues, while Hisashi hugged his wife and placed a kiss on other's head, looking all emotional and felt the guilt for not properly guiding his little broccoli well when he left.

"With all the endless cries I've been hearing from our son, in conclusion, I feel like I'm the worst father in the entire world. I knew I should've not gone home and left Japan. T-This is all my fault, love~. If there's anything I could do to make him feel better…"

"T-There is one thing I can suggest to renew your relationship with Izuku…" She sobbed before looking at her husband.

"What is it, Inko?" He raised her eyebrow.

"Maybe it's time, Hisashi…you have to show him your quirk." That suggestion made Hisashi paused for a moment.

He liked the idea, but still looked skeptical about it. "Ugh…I was about to tell him regarding this before the detective showed up, but ever since I got freed from jail, have a family with you, and worked as an expat, I haven't used my full transformation that much as I don't want to cause any more harm to the people." He later remembered about his colleague in Paris, formerly a monk who gave him a silver cross necklace to ward off the demonic energy inside him, but can still control it even without wearing it.

He sighed and rubbed his temples. "Maybe I will show it to him once he got fully recovered. I don't think he's emotionally ready for this because of the therapy the doctor currently giving to him."

Author's Note: I just made an OC character omfg. I borrowed her name from League of Legends champion, Soraka. This is a bit short and I think it's enough. I'm cutting this for now and next time I'd totally promise you guys that it will be a looooooooooooong chapter! The investigation continues until the detective offers Izuku something after exchanging information. What will that be? I think it's pretty obvious! HAHAHAHA! Anyways, let me know what you think by leaving a review and I'll see you in the next chapter!
