The Cursed Todoroki Name

Hawks makes poor decisions

"Natsuo?" The villain lying on his living room floor says as though Natsuo were the problem.

How did it come to this? Natsuo wonders but he knows the answer. It all started the day he was approached by the No. 2 Pro Hero Hawks.

He had been walking around his university one ordinary day when he had spotted Hawks loitering around. He found this to be strange since there didn't seem to be a villain attack going on. Why was Hawks here? Hopefully this wasn't his father's doing.

Natsuo had been sure to register under his mothers maiden name just so that no one knew of his connection to Endeavor. He wasn't like Fuyumi, wanting to ignore the past and be a happy family, and he wasn't like Shoto, wasn't emotionally stunted and now in a state of neutral confusion. No, he knew he didn't like his father, so he cut ties. 

It wasn't hard since Endeavor never really advertised that he had kids due to their safety. The only Todoroki children that are publicly known are the youngest and the oldest. Shoto was known because of the sports festival and Touya only briefly mentioned in the news after his death. Most people already forgot that Touya existed and so the public basically thinks that Shoto is Endeavors only child.

Since the public didn't really know of him all he had to do was refrain from mentioning his family. Which adds to his confusion of why was Hawks here since there was no way it was for him.  What other reasons would Hawks have to come to a university full of med students? Surely if they were to send a hero to speak to med students they would send a support hero with a healing quirk. Perhaps one that actually works in the medical field. 

And as far as he knew this wasn't Hawks' usual patrol area. Not that he keeps up with what Hawks does. It's just a little hard to be the son of a pro hero and not come across information about his father's coworkers. The point is there isn't an obvious logical reason for Hawks' presence and due to this Natsuo doesn't want to be seen by him just in case he was, by any chance, no matter how low that chance may be, sent by Endeavor.

So he does the most logical thing for a college kid who doesn't want to be seen. He pulls his hood up over his head and walked in the opposite direction of the hero. Unfortunately for Natsuo, this drew more attention to him. Most of the other students were flocking to Hawks to ask for autographs and pictures. To be the only going against the crowds made him seem suspicious and it is for that reason that Natsuo isn't shocked when Hawks follows him.

"Hey, kid! You got a minute to spare? I'd like to have a chat." Hawks said when he finally caught up to Natsuo.

"Sorry, I'm not into fan service." Natsuo replied as he continued walking away.

Hawks chuckled "Good. I'm not that much into fan service myself. " Then followed the Med student another half hour before Natsuo finally lead him to a secluded area and stopped.

"What do you want?" He said in a harsh tone. Hawks looked around to double check that they were alone. Really it was just for show since he knew with his quirk it was nearly impossible not to notice when people were around.

"Wow. You really don't like me do you?" Hawks playfully answered the question with a question.

"My opinions towards you are irrelevant. Why the fuck are you following me?" Natsuo figured that if he stated that he had done nothing wrong that would just make him look guilty.

"Well, I'm following you because you seem like you could help me out." Hawks said with a serious expression.

"What makes you think that I'll help you. As far as first impressions go I believe that you can see I'm not a die hard fan. What if I share to the press that your asking for favors from civilians?" Natsuo was sure that this would get hawks to leave him alone. After all, no hero wants to ruin their public image.
