Whoohoo 100k!! To celebrate: Todoroki childhood short stories XD

1) Cars

Shoto was crying in his room, laying on his bed with a pillow pressed onto his chest. His father's training was too rough, it was too much... How long has he been enduring this torture..? He's already 8 years old, wondering how he made it this far without going insane.
"Hey, Shoto, are you okay?"
A taller boy peaked through the door, quickly closing it behind him. It was Natsu, his older brother. He wasn't supposed to be here...

What if father caught them?!

"Hey, ssh, it's okay" he whispered, hugging his younger brother.
"What did he do this time?"
"H-he took a-all of m-my...*sniff* my t-toys a-away..." Shoto sobbed. Natsu sighed, frowning a little as he hugged the halfa. In the past their oldest brother, Toya, would comfort him. Comfort all of them. But now...

Natsu shook his head, not wanting to think about what happened to his other brother or why the red head needed to stay with their grandmother for the week. Father really was too harsh on them...
"Oh! I know what will make you feel better!" the white haired boy smiled, pulling away from the hug.
"It's a little secret Toya taught me. Come on, follow me"

The two of them sneaked past the training room, where Endeavor was raging, using his fire to scorch up the walls. Natsu cringed a bit as they walked by, quickly pulled Shoto away from there. Soon they arrived at their destination, the home computer. Natsu grabbed a card out of their father's wallet and handed it to Shoto.
"This is dad's credit card. You can order all the toys you like with this!"

"R-really?" Shoto gasped, carefully taking the card. Wouldn't they get in trouble if he used it..?
"Quickly, what toys do you want? Let's look it up on the computer" Natsu grinned, pulling an extra chair towards the screen.
"I want cars!" Shoto smiled, taring at the screen as Natsu typed.
"Make them pretty and fast!" the halfa added, seeing the imaged move before his eyes.

"Oh! That one!"

"This one? Hmm, you've got taste little bro, but this isn't-" Natsu started, only to be interrupted by Fuyumi, who called out for him.
"I need to go, be quick okay? Dad can't see it" the white head stated, hopping off his chair and running towards their sister's room. Shoto didn't know what his brother was going to say about the car he liked. But he did say he liked it, didn't he? Shoto smiled, ordering it as he typed in the numbers from the credit card.

He did this a few more times on other cars he liked, quickly shutting off the computer as he heard his father come near, scrambling back towards his room by detour. Everyone kinda forgot about it after that day, not thinking much of it. That was up until a few month later, when there was suddenly a giant bill and five new designer cars in their parking lot. Endeavor was furious, but the company wasn't taking them back seeing as they were paid for with his credit card.

Toya made sure neither of his siblings were close to their father during his angry phone call with the company or the raging aftermath. The oldest Todoroki son looked down upon his siblings with a small frown.
"Okay, which one of you was it? I know one of you used his card"
"Natsu!" Fuyumi gasped, hitting her brother on the arm.
"Hey! It wasn't me, I swear!"

All eyes then fell on Shoto, who was standing by the window from where he could see the brand new cars. Pretty...
"Wait... Shoto..? No way" Toya muttered to himself in disbelieve.
"Look Natsu! My toys are here! They're so big!" the halfa gasped, smiling a bit. Fuyumi instantly started lecturing her brother while Toya made his way over to the youngest of the pack, laughing.

"So you ordered these?" he asked, making the little one nod.
"Oh God, Shoto, who knew you had it in you to rebel?" the red head chuckled, pulling his brother into a side hug as he messed up his dual coloured hair.

"Nice one baby bro!"

2) Broken Stove

Endeavor broke the some appliances in the kitchen during another one of his rage fit. Which is why his children were washing the dishes by hand. Fuyumi was washing, Natsu dried and Toya put everything back on the shelves. Shoto was reading in the living room. Something about quirk balance, something he had to read from their dad.

"Dad said we need to make dinner ourselves tonight. He's working late" the halfa heard his sister say.
"I can go shopping" Toya offered.
"No, I'll go" Natsu said, halting his movements for a second.
"I-I want to get out of the house..."

"Dad gave me the money, so I'm going. I leave it to you to try and fix the stove" Fuyumi stated, pointing at the broken device. Yeah, Endeavor really did a number on that thing...
"You really believe that thing can be fixed?" Toya asked, a little sceptical.
"I'm sure you'll figure something out! Now, I'll be going, don't break the house down while I'm gone" she smiled, hopping down the small stairs that helped her reach the sink. 

And so she left, leaving her brothers alone. Shoto closed his book, knowing his brothers wouldn't tell on him if dad asked if he'd been reading all the time. When he walked into the kitchen, he saw the two older males put the remaining plates and cups back in the cabinets.
"Hmm... The fridge seems to be dying out too. Shame, we still had bacon but that'll just go bad now that we can't cook it" Natsu pouted.

"We also have eggs... Bacon and eggs for dinner?" Toya suggested.
"But Fuyumi is-" Shoto muttered, only to be ignored and interrupted.
"And how are you gonna do that? We don't even have a working fire" Natsu pointed out, making Shoto's eyes widen. He slowly grabbed the package of bacon from the table as his older brothers started arguing. 

Quietly, without being heard, he ripped it open and pulled up his sleeve. Carefully, he placed a piece on his arm, a sizzling sound filling the air as the flames of his quirk licked the raw flesh. Both Natsu and Toya stopped talking for a minute as they heard it, staring dumbfounded at their baby brother.

"Shoto... W-what are you doing..?" Natsu asked slowly.
"Making bacon!" he replied happily, showing them his arm.
"Dude... I think we found the solution to our problems" Toya grinned, pulling his shirt off.
"Come on, hand me the eggs"

About half an hour later, Fuyumi returned from the shop with things they could eat cold, knowing her brothers wouldn't be able to fix the stove even if they wanted to. Yet she didn't expect to walk into her home with the room smelling like bacon and eggs.
"I'm back!" she yelled, curiously making her way over to the kitchen, only to see both Shoto and Toya in their underwear on the floor, bacon and eggs cooking on their skin as Natsu flipped it onto a plate when it was done. 

They all stared in silence at each other for a while as Fuyumi slowly but her bag down.
"What are you doing?" she asked, not sure whether she was prepared for the answer.
"We're improvising" Natsu shrugged.
"You want some bacon and eggs for dinner or not?"

3) Toya

"Get up!" Endeavor roared, kicking his oldest son away again. His frame hit the wall and he crawled in on himself even further than before. Toya's frame was shaking as tears left his eyes. Blue flames licking his skin, hurting him, burning his flesh. He just wanted the pain to stop! Normally his mother would intervene, but she'd been living somewhere else ever since his youngest brother Shoto got that scar over his eye... 

Sometimes one of his siblings would come between them, but they were all at school right now. There was nobody left to save him...
"P-please dad... Please, s-stop..." he sobbed, trying to control his quirk but failing. His flames only got stronger, only hurting more. He just wanted the pain to stop! The pain was just getting too much!

"You're pathetic... You are a malfunctioning human being! Liek this, you an never be a hero!"

Then I won't be a hero...

"Stand up!"

No...

"I said. Stand. Up! You useless piece of trash!" Endeavor roared, kicking his son again.

No!

The flames got brighter and larger, much larger. They even kept Endeavor away from him for the time being. Yet it hurt... It hurt so damn much... Toya cried out, screaming his lungs out as his quirk exploded, lighting everything around him on fire. Luckily the room was fireproof, but still... It was even enough to knock Endeavor out! But Toya's skin felt like crisp. Burnt, hurting. Trembling, he got on his legs. 

Everything hurt... Moving hurt, breathing hurt, keeping his eyes open hurt... But he had a clear goal in mind. Escape. Escape while he still had the chance. Stumbling and crying, he made his way past his father and out the house through the backdoor. He had taken some burn cream and bandages from the cabinets and left the hell he was raised in, regretting not being able to say anything to his siblings. 

When Endeavor woke back up, all that was left was a pile of Toya's ashes, his burnt off skin. He also found some bandages missing, leading him to think his son was still alive. Yet he never told his children that. Toya was gone now, a stain on the Todoroki name. Luckily he still had Shoto to fall back on. He'll make sure that his youngest son will carry on their genes and becomes the number one hero!
