3rd Person POV:

A young five year old Y/n was curled up in a ball on the ground. Their red hair looked like flames, contrasting the brown wooden floor.

They were sniffling and sobbing as their father, Enji, was repeatedly hitting them as a punishment.

"You useless brat!" Enji furiously yelled at the young child, "If I say you're gonna be the strongest, then you are gonna be the strongest!!"

Y/n flinched, "I-...I'm sorry! I promise to work harder!!" They pleaded.

Enji irked, seemingly getting even more angry, "All you ever say is sorry! Sorry means nothing to me!!"

Y/n's mother, Rei, watched from the sidelines; her face filled with utter disgust for Y/n, "Useless brat..." She muttered under her breath as she watched Y/n get beaten up.

After getting bored, Enji left Y/n on the ground; covered in their own blood and bruises littering their skin.

A nine year old version of Y/n then awakes, covered in cold sweat. They had their usual nightmare of being caught and brutally beaten by their family.

"I escaped that house ages ago..." Y/n inwardly tried to calm themself down, "I faked my death. They don't even know I'm alive..." A scowl adorned their scarred face.

Y/n had been in an orphanage for 2 years now after escaping their home. Their hair had already turned mostly white.

"Y/n, are you okay...?" A boy with white hair and purple eyes asked Y/n with a concerned expression, "You look...annoyed..."

"I'm fine...Izana." Y/n murmured, "I just had a...nightmare...about them."

Izana's eyes narrowed instantly. He knew about Y/n's past after threatening them to tell him after telling them about his.

His eyes went blank, "Oh...Want me to kill them for you?" He offered, tilting his head.

Y/n frowned, "Kill?...No way!"

"What? You scared??" Izana poked Y/n, making fun of them with a smirk.

Y/n shook their head, "No...I wanna kill them myself." Their eyes glowered, "I'm going to torture them all to death."

Izana's eyes widened a little in surprise; before an impressed look appeared on his face, "Really? That's so cool!!" He exclaimed, "Please let me help you~!! That sounds so fun!"

Y/n nodded proudly, "Yep! You can help!! But I'm doing most of it, okay?"

"Okay!!" Izana cheerfully smiled.

"Let's go see Kakucho!" Y/n declared, as the duo quickly ran off to their friend.

●☩▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁☩●

Only a few months later, with the help of Kakucho and Izana, Y/n decided to escape the orphanage; having enough of just sitting around and doing nothing.

The younger Y/n was simply living their life; planning their revenge whilst homeless.

However, another young boy, named Sanzu Haruchiyo, decided to help them one day.

He became Y/n's knight in shining armour.

Their saviour.

Their hope.

Their hero.

Sanzu let them live with him after the duo quickly became very close friends, both being quite...similar...in some sense.

Extra Headcannons/fun facts:

○ Y/n canonically listens to Queen and Mitski.

○ Izana introduced Y/n to Queen's music.

○ Y/n is left-handed.

○ Y/n can barely cry, since their tear glands have been burnt a lot. However, they can cry blood.
