Welcome back, Heroes! Rio is here with the next part of Domestic Heroes! Grab your grass skirts and ukuleles, lads, because the family is off to Hawaii now. I've been wanting to do this story for a good while now, and I'm happy to provide for you all. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to fit in as much as I can for this one, lest it ends up being a multi-chapter fic of its own. I'm actually thinking of expanding this idea into a bit of a side-story after I'm done with Domestic Heroes. I think it's a good idea, but we'll see. With that said, enjoy the story, everyone and I will see you in the author's notes.

My Hero Academia: Domestic Heroes

Ohana

It finally happened. The dream has been accomplished. Izuku and Ochako, after years of hard work and determination, have finally achieved their dream, and they, especially Ochako, couldn't be happier. Her parents, the ones who have raised and cared for her since the beginning despite their bad financial situation, were finally able to live the life she believed they truly deserved. And in a much sooner rate than she was expecting as well. She believed it would be a good number of years after graduating before she would make enough to achieve her goal…but thanks to the help of Izuku, someone she thought would only be just a super kind friend than a really sweet boyfriend, she was able to make enough and get the best deals possible for what she had planned for her folks. She owed him immensely for everything…and all he asked in return was for him to be with her for as long as she wants, which is something she could easily fulfill.

She didn't want to let him go, anyways.

Now, after just two years of finishing hero school, along with some extra saving during it beforehand, the two young heroes, along with their respective parents, an excited Eri, and even Izuku's old mentor, were all in the tropical American state of Hawaii, putting in the finishing touches on the new house of the Urarakas, founded by Hisashi Midoriya and paid in full by Izuku and Ochako. The building itself was a split-level house that was partially perched on a hill and suspended by a wood and steel foundation with stairs leading up to it. The façade of the home was a nice ocean blue color with a red roof and some space underneath the platform to serve as a parking spot for a vehicle. The inside of the building was pretty nice as well, possessing a decently sized living room, a kitchen that doubled as the dining room, a master bedroom, a guest room, one bathroom, a laundry room that lead to the backyard, an attic, and a hall that connected all the rooms together. While appearing on the small side, it was the perfect size for the now retired family of two, and they were more than pleased by it.

The home itself was located on the outskirts of a small town in the main island of Hawaii: O'ahu. It was a beautiful area with luscious greenery, a small cliff off to the side with a river running underneath it, and a few paths on the hill that lead to a wondrous view of the land. The town's people were all pretty nice as well, being quite friendly to their new neighbors and offering to help out whenever they could. The purchase of both the home and even the surrounding land was not cheap, at least initially, but with the help of Hisashi and a few friends of the man, the couple were able to obtain it at a reasonable, yet still high, price. Enough for them to pay it all in one go at least.

It was beautiful, and it was the Urarakas now. All that's left is to make the house a home.

"Ok Ochako, Izuku, just move it a little more to the left and it's perfect!" Mr. Uraraka said to the couple as they moved the floating couch around, they and everyone else in summer clothes despite it being mid-January at the moment due to how warm it was.

"Gotcha, Daddy." Ochako, dressed in her pink blouse and black suspender shorts, nodded as she gently pulled the couch to her, giving it a scrutinizing gaze before turning to the bushy haired boyfriend of hers beside her. "Alright, this looks good. You ready Deku?"

"Yup. Release it when I say, ok?" Izuku, clad in a dark green, almost black button-up shirt and blue shorts, said with a smile as crimson lines and emerald sparks began covering his body. Moving himself in front of the hovering furniture and placing his arms under it, he gave her a nod and watched as she pressed her fingers together and call out the release of her gravity removal. He immediately felt the effects, but they were hardly noticeable thanks to his Quirk. Working slowly, the young man proceeded to lower the couch down to the wooden floor of the house, letting off a satisfied hum as he stared at his handiwork with a smile. "Alright, that's the last of the furniture down here. Think Mom and the others are done with the bedroom?"

"We are, Izu. Everything else looks good, as well." Inko said with a smile with Eri and Mrs. Uraraka coming out of the hallway while Toshinori entered the room through the front door with a massive grin on his face.

"The new vehicle has been registered! Uraraka, sir, you and your wife are now free to explore the island in style at your leisure! Hisashi has been a really huge help in that regard." The bony man stated while tossing a set of keys to Mr. Uraraka, who caught it easily with a massive smile of his own.

"Thanks, All Might! Really appreciate you and Hisashi for doing that, along with purchasing us a jeep of all things to go with the house. We're grateful, truly!" The man said easily as he pocketed the keys as his wife approached him with a happy expression.

"Well, now that we have officially moved in, how about we go and check out the outside of the house. I want to see how it looks again, now that it's completely ours." Mrs. Uraraka suggested, getting a round of agreements from everyone else before they all departed the home.

Once outside, the extended family stared at the now completed home with a sense of accomplishment. Izuku and Ochako especially felt proud of the site before them. It was a symbol of their hard work; an actual physical example of everything they've done coming together. One dream shared between them was finally done…and after only a short while as well. They still have other dreams and responsibilities to fulfill, such as becoming top heroes, raising Eri, and much more that have yet to be said. They weren't worried, though. Not anymore. If they were able to accomplish one dream so far, they were sure to accomplish many more in the future. Together.

"This is amazing. Dad really went all out with finding this home. I'm glad that we were able to do this for your parents, Ochako. Don't you agree?" Izuku said softly as he turned his head to his lover, his expression becoming gentler as he saw her welling up at the sight of her accomplished dream.

"…I can't believe it. It's actually right here. Right in front of us. This is your home now, Momma. Daddy." She muttered, tears freely falling from and a massive smile on her face as she turned to her parents. "Do you like it?"

"We love it honey, and we can't thank you enough for getting it for us. I can only imagine how hard you and Izuku worked in order to get it." Mrs. Uraraka said softly, her own tears leaking as she stared at her new family home in awe, allowing herself to take in all that her daughter has done for her.

"Not just house, dear. Our daughter worked herself to the bone to also get our furniture here and even buy us our passports and plane tickets. First class even! Ochako, I can't even begin to say how happy and proud I am of you. You are amazing, sweetie, and I love you so much." Mr. Uraraka said kindly, unashamed of his own crying as he pulled both his daughter and wife into a tight, loving hug as Izuku, Inko, Toshinori and Eri watched on with smiles of their own.

"…Now that is one of the sweetest moments I've ever seen. Ochako really does love her parents, does she." Inko said kindly, with the others nodding along in agreement.

"Yeah. She really does. She's been planning this since before we even met, and I'm happy that I was able to help her out with all this." Izuku said, gently stroking Eri's hair as he turned his head to the house. "We definitely owe Dad a lot for all his help, including the round-trip tickets for us and Ochako. I just wish he was around to see this…"

"Indeed. A shame that he was forced away from us by his work, but at least we got to meet him for a brief moment and he helped us with the furnishing before departing. You got his freckles and frizzy hair." Toshinori said with a grin, getting a light laugh out of Izuku in the process.

"He reminds me of a taller and skinnier you, Dad, except with darker hair." Eri chirped with a grin, causing the man to chuckle at her words.

"Yeah. I can see that." Izuku nodded in agreement turning his head to his girlfriend and family once more, enjoying the sight of their happiness, when he felt someone tug his hand. Looking down, he saw that it was Eri once more trying to get his attention, and smiled down at her as she began to spoke up.

"Dad? Can we go play at the beach now? I want to see if I can find some dolphins." She asked, looking just as cute and innocent as ever with her big red eyes, which nearly caused the young hero to have another heart clench moment before getting ahold of himself.

"…That sounds like a great idea, Eri. Let's ask everyone to see if they want to come with us." Izuku answered, grabbing Eri's hand and walked over to the Urarakas.

As it turned out, only Ochako was willing to go to the beach with them. The elder Urarakas wished to spend a little more time in their new home and take a rest while Toshinori and Inko made plans to visit a pineapple plantation of all things located on the other side of the island. Though they would've liked to be able to spend the day with everyone, the trio were ok with having a little family time to themselves. With that, they went and dressed themselves into more appropriate tropical attire, gathered a bit of food and drinks along with some towels and a large umbrella, and made their way over to the beach with unwavering smile and friendly waves to the locals and occasional tourists.

"Wooow! Mom, Dad, this beach is amazing! Look at how big it is!" Eri, dressed in a simple sky-blue one piece swimsuit, exclaimed in joy as soon as she and her parents stared at the clear ocean and white sandy beach in awe as her guardians set up the towels and umbrella on the ground.

"If she's excited about this beach, I can only imagine how she'll feel about the one in Honolulu…" Ochako, clad in a green, yellow and orange bikini with a cloud-theme orange sarong skirt on her waist, whispered to her emerald swim trunks wearing lover, who simply laughed and shook his head in response.

"I'm not sure about that, Ochako. She's still not a big of crowds, you know. I doubt that she'll be all that comfortable there." Izuku pointed out, eyeing the excited girl running around the sand with a content expression before turning to Ochako with an approving expression and a light blush. "…I like that swimsuit of yours, Ochako. It's…pretty and bright…just like you."

"Aww, thanks, Deku! You're such a sweetheart!" Ochako cooed as her own cheeks darkened, giving him a loud, wet kiss on the lips and leaving him in a bit of a daze when she finished, much to her amusement. "I actually had this for a while, but I never really had a chance to wear it until now. I love the colors and you know how much I'm a fan of sarong bikinis. I couldn't say no to it, especially since it was on sale."

"Yeah… I remember…" Izuku muttered, an image of his girlfriend in a blue colored version of the sarong bikini she was wearing during their beach and pool trips in high school before shaking his head to clear it. "…Lets just go out and enjoy ourselves. You and Eri have your sunscreen on, right?"

"Yup. Lathered it as soon as we changed inside. Although I might need some more later on… Mind helping me with that when the time comes?" She asked with a sultry stare and a not so subtle wink, laughing when his face turned bright red in response to her teasing.

"…You've become a real minx over time, you know that." Izuku grumbled as he palmed his face to hide his blush, only serving to make Ochako laugh harder as she grabbed his hand and dragged him to Eri, who had found herself by the lifeguard tower and apparently making friends with the woman on duty.

"Oh…! You know how to speak Japanese? That's cool! I'm just starting to learn English in school!" Eri said to the mocha-skinned woman with long black hair, a red and white one piece and webbed hands and feet, who laughed gently at her enthusiasm.

"You bet I do. We have a lot of people coming and going through Hawaii for vacation at any point. It's important for me to know how to communicate with each of them so that I can help them wherever I can." The woman said in an energetic, if accented tone, smiling at the look of awe in the child's face, before noticing Izuku and Ochako approaching them. "Aloha, cousins. Welcome to the beach. I take it this little girl here is a part of your ohana?"

"Um… I don't know what an…ohana is, ma'am, but she is our daughter, if that's what you're asking." Izuku answered with Ochako nodding in agreement as Eri trotted over to them with a wide smile.

"Daughter? Oh man I'm sorry. I just guessed that she was your younger sister or something similar because of how young you look. I take it she's adopted then, if you don't mind me asking?" The lifeguard asked with a sheepish expression, getting a laugh from Izuku and Ochako in response.

"It's fine. We get that a lot, even back at Japan." Ochako assured before grabbing Eri by the shoulder and held her close, smiling when Izuku did the same with her. "But yeah, my boyfriend here and I adopted her. Almost a year ago, if I remember right. We've known her since we were teenagers and she's been through so much in the past. When we were given a chance by her old guardian, who was also one of our former teachers, to take her in, we jumped at the chance to be her family. She's our daughter in every sense of the word and we love her so much!"

"Wow… You must be an incredibly sappy family at home, huh? Haha! I like you guys!" The lifeguard laughed in obvious approval, getting grins out of Ochako and Izuku while Eri went and hugged Ochako by the waist for her words, before reaching a webbed hand out to them in greetings. "The name's Lilo. Normally I work as a member of the Hawaiian Quirked Wildlife Preserve and as a photographer on the side, but I sometimes moonlight as a lifeguard when my brother-in-law isn't available. I usually have my dog around here to help, but he's watching over my daughter right now until my aunt and uncle come back from their trip. Nice to meet you!"

"Nice to meet you as well. I'm Midoriya Izuku, and this is my girlfriend, Ochako Uraraka, and my adopted daughter, Eri. We're actually here to help my girlfriend's family move in to the house in the outskirts of town and doubling it as our vacation as a result. We're happy to make your acquaintance, ma'am." Izuku said with a bow, with Ochako and Eri following suit.

"Now, now, no need to bow. Just go out at the beach like the ohana you are and I'll be content." The lifeguard, Lilo, assured with a wide grin as Eri looked up at her curiously.

"What's an ohana?" She asked, getting a small giggle from the lifeguard in response before looking ahead at the beach with a faraway expression.

"Ohana means family…and family means 'nobody gets left behind…or forgotten'. It's a saying that my parents came up with when I was a kid…before they passed away in a car accident. It's been my mantra since, and helped me through some hard times in my life. Those words along with my sister…and my dog." She said, her tone laced with nostalgia and gratitude that Izuku and his girls couldn't help but be impressed by her resolve, before she turned back to them with a gentle smile. "Maybe it can help with yours as well? You three are family, after all. It's plain as day. Hope you all have a good time here. I'll keep watch to make sure you're all safe."

"…Thanks, ma'am. And thank you for telling us about the meaning of ohana. We really appreciate it." Izuku said kindly with a nod before heading further into the beach, with Eri and Ochako walking ahead of him.

The words the woman spoke, the meaning behind the Hawaiian phrase, of family itself, resonated with him. The lifeguard… Lilo… Her words were ones that a hero would definitely say, and Izuku himself believed that, if given the opportunity, she would've been an amazing sea stationed Hero if her webbed appendages was a sign. However, just by seeing the look in her eyes, he knew that she was content where she was at. The young man decided to simply heed her advice and simply enjoy his vacation with his sweet daughter and loving girlfriend. It was a gorgeous day, after all, and what better way for him to spend it with his precious ohana… They only had a short amount of time until they had to leave, so they were going to have as many family moments as they could before going back to their busy lives as heroes…

…And for Izuku to officially bring Ochako into his ohana. Just a little while longer…and his family will finally be complete.


Prompt 28: Vacation

Author's Notes: And here it is, lads. A few references here and there, but all in all, I think it turned out decent. I am definitely going to expand on this story after I'm done with Domestic Heroes. It's just too good of a storyline to pass up. As of this point, though, there are only 2 chapters left in Domestic Heroes. Hard to believe that this is nearly over, but I've had a lot of fun on this wild ride of a fanfic. It's been a lot of hard work, let me tell you, but it was worth it in the end. I'm happy and content that so many of you have been enjoying yourselves with this collection of stories that I've been whipping up. Tomorrow's update is going to be an interesting one as well, Heroes, so look forward to it!

Also, as a side note: I'm sure you are all aware of this, but Hawaii's in a serious bind right now due to the recent volcano eruption. So please, keep the people there in your prayers and try and support them in any way you can. They are going through some hard times right now, so we need to try and help as much as we can. I'm sure we can do something for them. We are Heroes, after all.

Farewell, everyone. Until next time. And remember, Go Beyond. Plus Ultra!
