First Burn

A/N: Endeavor suffers with pain and guilt...Is it finally too late to be sorry?

Why...?

Why did this all have to happen?

For years the truth was shrouded in darkness.

The games, abuse, and lies now comes to an end.

Endeavor finds himself trapped in some nightmare that feels like he can never wake up from...

But despite being in total darkness, he wasn't alone...

There stood a few inches away from.him was Rei...

She had that steely gaze on her face again...

He wasn't sure if she was actually here and just an apparition again...

It feels like it but he couldn't correspond with the thought just yet...

How much he wanted to see her again.

How long since they actually had an pleasant that didn't involved his plans...

Endeavor: Rei.

Rei: DON'T!

For once in his life, Enji flinched at her tone.

Rei: Don't take another step towards me. I don't trust you. Don't think you can talk your way into my arms.

He had this coming. Why he didn't see it sooner. During that time she was suffering, she had a family with him and tried to be happy but that was taken away and rightfully so because why should she be happy when someone betrayed her and their kids was struggling to survive.

A simple apology from him will not remedy things, he only regretted everything now when he lost everything .

It was like karma to him so he should have guessed that this wouldn't end well. Ever since she sacrificed everything her future that she worked hard for ever since she was a young girl, Rei wanted to be her own hero. But that changed the moment Endeavor first lay eyes on her and then brought her from her own family. Then forced her to have a family with him and look happy in public. It is only logical for her to be abused.

Because of that stupid quirk marriage...

All this had drama, anguish, and the illusions that were put up came crashing down.

The Todoroki Family was nothing but an illusion.

An logical ruse for Enji's sick plans to suppress All-Might.

Rei: I meant nothing to you after all these years. Neither did our children. Especially Shouto...

Endeavor: That's not true!

Rei: Then why you do it?!!!

Endeavor:....

Rei: Why did you hurt us?! Why did you beat me everyday?! I wanted nothing more but to protect my children but you took that all away!!! Everytime when I see Shouto...I see you...I-I...I just can't even look at you right now...

Endeavor: Rei...

Rei: For years, suffering under your rules just to get what you want... because of your jealousy for All-Might. It sicken me...You never acted like a father or husband. You used us as pawns.

Endeavor:....I get what you're saying...But what does that have to do with what's going on now?

Rei:....Tell me...What would happen if you actually beat All-Might? Would we mean nothing to you after that?

Endeavor:.....

Rei: ANSWER ME ENJI!!!

Endeavor: N-No! Of course not! I...

Rei: Got nothing to say huh...So you don't really really feel guilty for what you done...For years you abused this entire family. Put me in the hospital, Touya and Natsuo ran away, Fuyumi forced to keep her mouth shut and Shouto receiving the end of everything that he shouldn't have faced as a kid. You beat us, torment us, burned us, neglected our children! Then...When word got out...You cleared your name... Because of your ridiculous plan...

You have ruined our lives...

Endeavor: (Fuck...She's right...)

The woman clutched her head in pain.

Rei: For years...I thought heaven forbid you weren't part of some scheme...

The enemies whispered...So she just have to scream...

Endeavor: Rei...

Rei: I have erased myself from this narrative story. This game and lies had to come to an end...People were going to find out one way or another. Because of the evidence was flawed...

Rei begin to hold herself as she begin to cry. Enji had the sudden urge to hold her.

Rei: DON'T think I'm naive...Everyone may fallen from your charms! All Your Charms! But you maybe a great Hero...

But your a terrible husband and father. Nothing will change that.

Endeavor: (Fuck...)

Rei: You have thrown it all away! Send back what you-!

Rei tears fallen down her face shaking in fear and anxiety as burn marks and bruises appeared all over her. Flames surrounded her her small figure as if they were going to harm her.

Endeavor stared in horror. After all...This was his doing...

Rei: BURN!!!! JUST WATCH IT ALL... BURRRRRRRRRRRN!!!!

Rei then turned to him.

Rei: And when the time comes... Explain to the children. The pain and embarrassment...You put their mother through.

As if on cue, their children magically appeared in the darkness. Their silhouette shadows representing the expressions.

Guilt

Fuyumi: Why couldn't we just be a family????

Disgust

Natsuo: You too special care to never let us, your 'Failures' into his life after all!!! Because of you, Mom and Shouto were crying! Not to mention what happened to Touya-Nii! And you have the gall to feel guilty now?!

Revenge

Touya: Useless? Pathetic? Failure?! I didn't have a choice! Fear is the only way to get back at this corrupted society that creates 'heroes' like him!

Hate

Shouto: I will never be like you...It's your fault mom hurt me!!!! I'LL HATE YOU. I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU.

Endeavor could only stare with mutual pain. This was what his children had felt over the years.

Rei: When will you learn...They are your legacy! WE ARE YOUR LEGACY!!!!

Then the apparation of his wife float towards him.

Rei: And if you thought were mine?!!

Then his children surrounded Endeavor as Rei joined them screaming audible words at him with expressions full of anger and hate.

The man clutched his head as he dropped to his knees...

He deserves what he gotten...

Because all of this was his fault....

Rei: DON'T!

Then they all vanished without a trace...leaving him there in the dark. His face was full of guilt.

Endeavor:......I'm sorry....

Even though it was too late....

So much for redemption...
