“Have you seen the news?” Ito asked Nii while he got some orange juice
“What news?” Nii ask trying to think about what Ito could be talking about “is it a new Pro, or something,”
“You haven’t heard,” Wada said clearly surprised
“What are you talking about?” Kato asked as she grabbed a piece of toast
“How do you not know?” Kitamura said from his seat “it’s everywhere,”
“I haven’t check the news today,” Kato explained “I got up like ten minutes ago,”
“Here,” Uekaoina shoved his phone to Kato, “read this,”
Kato read the news on Uekaoina phone while Nii read over her shoulder.
“What?” Nii gasped “how’s that possible?
“That’s insane!” Kato said
“I know right,” Ito said
“He was like in his mid sixties, right?” Kitamura said
“Somewhere around there,” Ito confirmed
“What are you guys talking about?” Hotaru asked grabbing her breakfast.
”You haven’t heard?” Wada said
Hotaru shook her head
“I would have assumed you would have since you are numbers two’s kid,” Ito said
”You think I get the news twenty four hours before it happen,” Hotaru says sarcastically
“Here read this,” Uekaoina shoved his phone in her face
She took a minute to read the news article. Her eyes widen, and her mouth dropped to the floor.
“Holy shit!” She said and ran back to her room.
“Hello Mrs. Yukikae,”
“Hello Mrs. Kana, has my ex husband requested to see me?” She sighed “You know my answer is always no,”
“That’s not what I’m calling about,” the woman said “I’m guessing by your tone you haven’t seen the news,”
“No I haven’t watch the news today. What’s going on?”
“I hope you’re sitting down. This news is very shocking. He’s....”
Rei sat on her couch completely frozen, with her hand over her mouth. Her phone was face down on her coffee table.
Fuyumi was putting on her usual uniform of a blouse, cardigan, jeans, and sneakers when she got a call from Natsou.
“Hey Natsou how are you doing? I’m not going to be able to talk long. I’m about to leave for work,”
“Fuyumi have you seen the news,” Natsou said seriously
“No? What’s going on?” Fuyumi asked worried
“Holy fuck,” Natsou said almost hyperventilating “Our...”
“That can’t be true,” she cried
”I know I can’t believe it either,” Natsou sighed
“How can that be true!” She cried
There was chatter in the Teacher’s lounge. Everyone has heard the earth shattering news. No one could believe what happened.
“Do you think Todoroki knows yet?” Uraraka asked Monoma, Kaminari, and Shinsou
“I don’t know, probably not. He doesn’t really spend time on his phone till lunch time,” Shinsou said, and Uraraka nodded in agreement
“Do you think a family member has told him yet?” Kaminari wonder
“I don’t know,” Shinsou said “it’s possible,”
“I almost can’t believe it. It’s, so surprising ,” Monoma said “it was, so sudden, and out of nowhere,”
“What’s, so surprising, and out of nowhere?”Todoroki asked as he enter the teachers lounge “was there a villain attack, or something?” All the teachers’ eyes were glue on him. How the hell are they supposed to tell him?
“Your...” Uraraka explained what was going on
Todoroki just stood there with his eyes wide, and his mouth wide open. He looked at his phone for the first time that day. He saw eight miss calls from Fuyumi. Six from Natsou, and nine from his mother.
“I, I- Todoroki stuttered “Can you get me a sub? I need to go,” and speedily walked out of the room
“Nat,” Natsou girlfriend shook him awake, “Natsou honey, you need to wake up,”
“Hey babe,” Natsou said as he was awoken by his girlfriend
“Honey I think you should call your mom,” She said very seriously
“What’s wrong?” He asked her “what happen to my mom?”
“It not your mom,” she said, and took out her phone “here read this,”
He took a second to get used to the light of the phone. As he read the article he felt like a bat hit him in the gut.
“No,” he said in with wide eyes and a even wider mouth “no, no, no. That, that can’t be true,”
“Dad, have you seen the news,” Hotaru said as soon as her father picked up the phone.
“Whatever happens to hello,” Touya joked
“I’m guessing you haven’t heard, or seen the news?” Hotaru said very seriously “you haven’t read anything?”
“No?” Touya asked, and looked for the remote, so he could turn on the TV “What’s going on? What happen?”
Touya found the remote, and turned on the TV,
Hotaru took a shaky breathe and said “Your dad, Endeavor is...”
“Holy shit,” he yelled into the phone and dropped his phone on the couch cushions.
“What’s wrong,” Keigo yelled, and ran down the stairs to the family room.
Touya didn’t say anything, but pointed at the TV.
“Oh my god,” Keigo whispered “how’s that- how’s that possible?”
The words ‘Enji Todoroki aka the former number one Pro hero Endeavor found dead in Moerugomi median security prison at age 66 from stroke’ scrolled across the screen on channel 8.
