In which a certain villain is surprised by his own actions.

*TW: angst and mild gore

pedophilerunning after her, even if he was wearing a unicorn poop confetti face mask.

Of course, besides Dabi, there were also Toga and Shigaraki.

"Damn, I didn't know that many people wanted to vore my sexy ankles," [Name] said with pride.

"[NAAAME]! COME MAKE TIKTOKS WITH MEEE!" Toga called out, pouting.

[Name] saw the blonde girl's sad puppy dog eyes and slowed down, causing Todoroki, in turn, to slow as well, since the two were still holding hands.

"Aw, wait that actually sounds kinda ni-"

Toga then pulled out some handcuffs and a taser.

"ooHH NOPE NOT TODAY!" [Name] yelled, once again dashing after Todoroki.

Suddenly, Dabi appeared out of nowhere in front of the two teenagers, his sparkly, pink bathrobe (which said 'bridesmaid') fluttering in the wind. His palms burned with blue fire, illuminating the evil smirk on his face.

"Are those My Little Pony boxers?" Todoroki deadpanned.

"Uh... I borrowed them from Shigaraki." Dabi muttered, his blushing deeply.

"THIS MAN'S GOT TWILIGHT SPARKLE ON HIS PEEPEE!" [Name] choked.

Dabi glared at the [h/c] haired girl, and his eyes drifted downwards to Todoroki's and her hands connected. He grinned and sent a gust of blue fire between the two.

"DONT BURN MY MF WIG!" [Name] whined, as they dodged at the last second.

The two wanted to avoid engaging in combat, since Todoroki didn't have his license and [Name] would not be able to take all 3 alone.

Todoroki quickly made a wall of ice to stall the villains, then ran down the street, dragging her into a quiet, dark, empty street that had a couple of bars and many red and blue LEDs lining the sides.

Todoroki pushed the girl up against the wall, covering her with his body tightly, as space in the shadowy alleyway was limited.

The world was silent, besides [Name]'s and Todoroki's attempts to calm their labored breathing and the soft humming of the LED lights.

Feeling his chest closely against hers, [Name] looked up at her monotonous friend's face.

His eyes were narrowed and protective, and he looked to the end of the street, alert. The LED's were illuminating his jawline and facial features, which [Name] had a good view of since he was taller than her.

Finally, as his breathing calmed down, he looked down at her with gorgeous, heterochromatic half-lidded eyes. [Name] blushed deeply and quickly looked away, as she was caught staring. As her eyes met his muscular chest, she suddenly became aware of how close the two really were.

The sound of footsteps echoed from a couple of blocks down the street.

[Name] widened her eyes with slightly panic. Todoroki felt her heartbeat speed up against his chest. He wasn't good at comforting people, but he took one of his hands and awkwardly put it on her shoulder as a sign of comfort, still staying deadly silent.

[Name] looked up at him once again quickly, and then tightly closed her eyes and buried her face in his chest, wrapping her arms around him slowly in a tight hug. She breathed in calmly, the scent of fresh arctic wind and jasmine calming her down immediately.

Todoroki widened his eyes with surprise, feeling his body heating up considerably- and NOT because of his quirk. Still, he maintained a calm face and although he never in a million years would have imagined himself to do such a thing...

The boy wrapped his arms around [Name], one hand behind her head, and rested his chin on the top, noticing how her hair smelled like strawberries. The two sunk deeper into the peaceful shadows, feeling each other's protection and warmth.

Everything was peaceful. The gentle hum of the LED's became like a constant and comforting resonance.

The footsteps passed.

As [Name] realized that the villains were gone, she pulled her face away from Todoroki's chest, detaching herself from the boy. As soon as she did, Todoroki felt as if a part of him was missing and empty, yet again.

His soul and heart ached for just a couple more seconds of her affectionate and gentle touch, which he never received as a child, but the boy simply pushed the thoughts away and maintained his usual mature expression.

"Hey, this reminds me of that day the alarm went off at school," [Name] whispered with a small smile.

Todoroki nodded as he recalled the day.

He grabbed [Name] and pulled her close into his chest, his body pressing against hers comfortingly. The scent of fresh, arctic wind and a blazing campfire calmed her nerves.

-

Loud voices brought [Name] and Todoroki out of their thoughts. The villains were close by.

FUCK! [Name] mentally groaned, as she heard 2 voices arguing. If it's Dabi and Toga, I'm game-ending myself.

"Come on [Name]! All we want is your gamer girl pee! Nothing else! I prooomiseee!" Toga attempted to bait her from coming out of the shadows.

They were met with silence.

"Should we use it?" Dabi roughly said.

"Hm... Shiga-Shiga said only to use it as a last resort because she would find out."

[Name] widened her eyes. What are they talking about...

Dabi then pulled a small device out of his pocket and fidgeted with it.

"And... It's on."

Searing pain suddenly shot through the back of [Name]'s neck. She grunted and fell to her knees, squeezing her eyes shut and clutching the back of her neck. She could feel her muscles writhing under her fingertips, the veins pulsating abnormally.

"[Name]!" Todoroki grit his teeth, kneeling down.

"The GPS says she's... On this street!"

A soft, high-frequency beeping sound was buzzing under [Name]'s skin. Todoroki widened his eyes as he remembered how [Name] was complaining of neck pain earlier, back when she and Bakugo returned from the villain's hideout.

"It feels like there's something in there..." [Name] said.

"Well, if there was, it would have shown up on the scan. It looks like whatever stabbed you there cleanly came out." The doctor replied.

-

"It's a location tracker! Come here!" Todoroki said, grabbing the [h/c] haired girl.

[Name] looked up at him with wide, wavering [e/c] eyes as the half-and-half boy quickly sat down and pulled her into his lap.

"Okay. This is going to hurt. A lot. But I need you not to scream. Bite this," Todoroki ordered, ripping off a piece of his shirt.

He stuck it in [Name]'s mouth, while the girl watched him with panic, not really understanding what he was about to do.

As an icicle formed in his hand, [Name] widened her eyes and writhed around in his grasp.

"[Name], I'm sorry, but I need to get it out of you!" Todoroki hissed quietly, his gentle hands pushing her hair away from the nape of her neck.

And then, at the speed of lightning, he plunged the sharp icicle deep into the back of her neck, wiggling it around and trying to search and push the microscopic tracker to the surface of her skin.

[Name] screams were muffled by Todoroki's shirt as her body shook violently in pain, unable to pull away from the male's iron grip on her body. Warm, crimson liquid leaked down her neck and back, but Todoroki persisted.

Finally, after what seemed like forever, a small piece of metal, almost too small to see, dropped to the ground. Todoroki threw the icicle aside, which was now painted in a deep red. It burst into many blood-tainted shards to the ground.

"It stopped working!" A frustrated voice said from nearby.

"Whatever, they're still around here. Come on!"

"[Name], you stay here and hide while I fight them," Todoroki whispered, but [Name] shook her head, taking his shirt out of her mouth.

"You can't fight! You don't have your hero license ye-"

"Well, you're in no condition to fight!" Todoroki said. He stood up while [Name] sat weakly on the ground, trying to put pressure on her neck to stop the bleeding.

With a swing of his arm, Todoroki made a wall of ice around [Name] to hide and shield her for the time being and rushed away, aiming to fight the villains. However, as he rounded the corner, his heart sunk to only see... Shigaraki and Toga. Dabi was nowhere to be seen.

[Name] winced, as her hand was now covered in blood due to the deep cut, and it was still spilling out of the wound. However, her panic only quickened as she saw that the ice wall was slowly melting from an outer source of heat.

As it collapsed, she found herself face to face with Dabi. His eyes were full of malice as he towered over [Name], who was on the ground. (and yes, he had wiped his unicorn poop confetti face mask off by now).

"[Name]... It's about time you came back to the villains. You belong with us," Dabi said lowly, grabbing the girl's wrist tightly. [Name] flinched as she was wrenched to her feet, stumbling slightly.

The girl glared at Dabi as her wrists flared up with buzzing, red energy, although it was quite weak because of her significant blood loss that was still occurring.

Dabi, burned by the plasma, let go of [Name]'s wrist and snarled, pushing her against the wall by her throat and holding his fist back- but suddenly he paused, not swinging.

The girl was backed up against the corner, significantly smaller than her, but still glaring up at him and ready to defend herself.

Blood was splattered across her torn clothes and still dripped down her neck, her hair was mangled, her palms were scarred with imprints from her fingernails, and her face was all roughed up, but still, he could sense the effort and determination coming from her as plasma buzzed around her body.

Dabi looked into her [e/c] eyes and lowered his fist. The girl unclenched her jaw with surprise as he let go of her throat and staggered backward, away from her.

"Go."

"Wh-"

"I SAID GO!" Dabi yelled, his hands shaking. [Name] asked no questions and clumsily ran away in the dark, looking for Todoroki.

A dark memory of a shaking, bruised, red-haired boy cowering in the corner under a raised fist resurfaced from the depths of his mind.

"I mean, I know we failed in kidnapping her, but why is Dabi so... Emo about it? It's not even a big deal!" Shigaraki grumbled.

"I don't know, but he's giving me a migraine!" Toga whined, looking towards the shower door.

"HEART 💔 been broke 📉 so many times ⏰ i don't know 🤔 what to believe.. 💯 mama 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 said 🗣 it's my fault 😢 it's my fault! 🤦🏻‍♂️i wear my heart ❤️ on my sleeve... 💪 i think it's best 👍🏻 I put my heart ❤️ on ice..." Dabi cried loudly and banged on the shower door.

"Whatever, we're vibing," Shigaraki said, as he and Toga bullied little girls on a My Little Pony Roblox server.
