Spite

Summary:

This whole thing is being written because racism sucks, and I am making Shouto the scapegoat of suffering.

Or

 

Shouto's father is an asshole, so she becomes the best person she can be out of spite.

Chapter 1: Prologue

Notes:

The whole thing won't be written in verse, I promise! This is just for the prologue

Chapter Text

Todoroki has always been a name that bites 

And turns all opposers away in a fright

But there is one who never runs from a fight

Who goes by the glorious name: All Might.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~1~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Enji yearns to surpass him and be the number one

But the fight for the title has not yet been won

The fury of defeat burns him like a smoking gun

Enter his way to win: child number one.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~2~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Touya has always done the best that he could do

With fire hotter than his father's, but his own skin, too

He knows he is a failure and that his father wants a new

soldier to train: enter child number two.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~3~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Fuyumi disappointed before she even breathed

An inferior gender all because she is a she

And her quirk is so soft and so delicate like sleep

But she's just a placeholder before child number three.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~4~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Natsuo was better, but his attitude was poor

Even with a strong ice quirk, Enji wanted more

His need to beat All Might was rooted to the core

So he tossed away another child, enter number four.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~5~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Shouto was born a bittersweet hope

She was a girl, but her appearance made Enji cope

Split red and white, a perfect kaleidoscope

Enji's prayer for dual quirks may not be a distant hope.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~6~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Enji became dark, corrupt, and demented

Touya was tossed away, like scum, and resented

Fuyumi stayed in the shadows pretending to be contented

Natsuo's disdain for their father finally cemented

All because Shouto's quirks had presented.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~7~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

The house filled with screams that left the foundations quaking

Shouto was always left crying and shaking

Her mother's old mind was slowly breaking

While Enji's claws of abuse keep raking.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~8~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Shouto swears that she can take the kicks

Even when academics are thrown in the mix

Rei finally snapped and marred her at six

Touya passed away and left a gaping hole to fix.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~9~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Shouto can't take it- the pain that persists

Blood pooled around because she can't resist

The beatings her father brings with firey fists

And suddenly- she's gone in the mist.

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~10~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

Please, somebody help- she can't live any more

She's tried to save herself with rivers of red along her core

Only death can save her from her ever-burdened life chore

Please, somebody help! She can't take it anymore!

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~11~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

I wanna die

Please help me

Someone

Please

Please, please, please

I wanna be gone

Like Touya

And Mama

Please

I don't wanna break again

Please-

 

*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~12~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*~•~*

 

A child's presentation is a beautiful thing to face

Alpha, beta, omega, so many options to chase

Unfortunately, one of these genders is a 'useless disgrace'

Shouto's presentation is her only saving grace 

 

An omega can't possibly surpass All Might

So Enji throws Shouto away, but he should've had the foresight

To know his daughter is one of flames and frostbite

And she'll become a better hero, all out of spite.
