Izuku woke up the next morning around noon with Toga passed out next to him sleeping peacefully. He got out of bed despite his hangover. He used his sheer force of will to fight his migraine and make brunch for Dabi, who was watching TV on the couch and for Toga who was currently slumped. When he finished making brunch he left a glass of water on the nightstand for Toga to drink when she wakes up. It was then he decided to check his phone. He noticed that Victor and Katana had decided to meet up under victor's bridge later tonight and were waiting on his response. He told them he'd be there.
"So where did you go last night?" asks Dabi.
"Karaoke bar." replies Izuku.
"Ya know you still smell like alcohol." says Dabi.
"I drank a lot yesterday. I had a couple beers with the vigilantes. I had some whiskey with you. Toga and I drank way too much. We got fucked up. I probably shouldn't have drove home but it turned out okay I think. I don't remember that much to be honest." says Izuku.
"Well, you must have had fun." says Dabi.
"Yeah, we did." says Izuku.
"Do you think you should tone down the alcohol?" asks Dabi.
"Maybe, but it doesn't fuck up my liver. And that thing about alcohol killing brain cells is a myth." says Izuku.
"That's not what concerns me." says Dabi.
"Then what's bothering you?" asks Izuku.
"You want to be a hero eventually right?" asks Dabi.
"I'm not entirely sure but I guess it would be nice." says Izuku.
"Well a hero can't be drinking all the time." says Dabi.
"I can speed up my regeneration to get rid of alcohol's effects." says Izuku.
"Didn't you drive home drunk last night?" asks Dabi.
"Yeah, but that was a one time thing." says Izuku.
"At first I thought drinking was gonna be a one time thing for me and now I can't seem to go a day without it." says Dabi.
"Well, I could be doing worse things. I could be doing cocaine or heroin. You know I could get my hands on it. Giran could set me up easy." says Izuku.
"I guess it could be a lot worse, and yeah you're right about Giran being able to set you up with the goods. I get all my stuff from him." says Dabi.
"Woah, what stuff? Do you have weed?" asks Izuku.
"Do I look like a stoner to you?" asks Dabi.
"Well, … no sorry." says Izuku.
"You bum, the answer was yes." says Dabi as he pulls out a small Ziploc bag from his jacket.
"Nice." says Izuku.
"Wanna try some?" asks Dabi.
"You know it Dabi." says Izuku.
"Be warned this grass'll kick your ass." says Dabi.
"I've had my ass kicked a lot more than you'd think. I'm used to it by now. So hand it over." says Izuku.
"Well, Shit brother I can't say no to that." says dabi as he rolls a joint and hands it to Izuku.
"Hey, can you light this?" asks Izuku.
"Hell yeah brother." says Dabi as he shoots a beam of fire out of his finger and light's Izuku's joint.
"Thanks man." says Izuku.
"No problem." says Dabi.
Izuku spent a large portion of the day lounging around with Dabi. Toga came down and had breakfast. Not long after she said there was something she wanted to do today. Izuku and Dabi didn't mind her heading out to much. She's tough and can handle herself. They were both fairly certain that she was out for blood but neither of them felt they had the right to say anything about it given their circumstances. Izuku liked smoking but figured that he wouldn't take from Dabi's supply. Or at least he wouldn't take too much. Before Izuku and Dabi knew it. It was getting late before Izuku or Dabi knew it. It was at this point Izuku and Dabi got worried and decided that they should go look for her. At least that was what they were thinking before they heard a knock on the door.
"Who do you think it is? Would she rat on us if she got arrested?" asks Dabi.
"It's her. I can smell her, and she's alone. We've got nothing to worry about." says Izuku as he calmly walks up to the door and opens it.
Dabi's worries were in vain as Toga happily strolls through the door with a shopping cart.
"Oh you went shopping. You get anything interesting?" asks Izuku.
"I stole a bunch of stuff." says Toga happily, " And I stabbed somebody."
"They dead?" asks Izuku.
"Nope. I'm reforming myself. I'm just gonna hurt people not kill em." says Toga.
"That's great honey. By the way, what were you out stealing?" asks Izuku.
"Just a couple of things. I stole some eye liner and lipstick for me. Some staples for Dabi." says Toga.
"Thank's." says Dabi.
"And some cigarettes for you." says Toga as she opens one of the bags in the cart to show it's completely filled with cigarettes.
"Wow thanks. This'll last me a while." says Izuku.
"And I stole some whiskey for the three of us." says Toga as she opens several bags to reveal an excessive amount of whiskey.
"Well thank you for that. It'll save us some money." says Izuku before he starts looking thoughtful for a moment, " Can I talk with you about something?"
"Yeah sure. Wanna talk in your room?" asks Toga.
"Yeah, follow me." says Izuku as he works his way to his room.
When they close the door to Izuku's room Toga speaks up.
"Is this about the robbery?" asks Toga.
"Sort of. The robbery made it come to mind." says Izuku.
"Well, what is it?" asks Toga.
"What happens to us? Our relationship, if one of us gets arrested?" asks Izuku.
"Oh… I hadn't thought of that." says Toga.
"I know I have heros after me. I fought with Eraser head I talk with him sometimes. He thinks taking me in will help me. His roommates feel the same way. So because of him I've got Present Mic and Midnight out looking for me. When I fought Muscular I met Miruko. I think she's after me too. She likes to work alone but if people find out Miruko is looking for me small heroes will come after me looking for the fame of beating one of the top ten. And if Eraser Head talks to Nezu I might get the entire U.A. staff after me. Eraser Head's quirk and Midnight's quirk don't work on me. Present Mic's would be difficult to deal with." rambles Izuku.
"Calm down. I get it. It's stressful to have so many people looking to change your life. You want to be the one to make that choice. You'll manage, you're strong. You beat Muscular." says Toga.
"I didn't beat Muscular." says Izuku.
"You took his eye and his ear. If the two of you fought again who do you think would win?" asks Toga.
"Well I did find out a way to beat him. I just have to rely more heavily on my claws and fangs to rip through his muscles but he's still stronger than I am." says Izuku.
Look, my point is you're strong and I'm sneaky. We'll be fine." says Toga.
"I know, it's just… what if we aren't?" asks Izuku.
"Okay if you got arrested would you want me to move on or wait for you to get out?" asks Izuku.
"Well I'd want you to move on sure, but If when I get out we find each other maybe we could be something again." says Izuku.
"And if I get arrested you can move on. It's not wrong to move on life's about moving on." says Toga.
"Yeah. I guess you're right." says Izuku before looking at a clock, "I'd love to spend more time with you but I have to meet with some people."
"Good luck with whatever your doing. And be safe." says Toga
Izuku quickly changes into his suit grabs his gun and heads out to meet with Viktor and Katana. He hops across the rooftops to Victor's bridge. Why this man hangs out under bridges is beyond him but hey don't knock until you've tried it as they say. He lands on under the bridge to see Victor drinking Modelo.
"Modelo time?" asks Izuku.
"Modelo time!" answers Victor as he tosses Izuku a bottle which Izuku drinks under his bandana.
"Do you think Katana's gonna show up soon?" asks Izuku.
"I'm sure I will." calls Katana's voice from behind Izuku.
"Good to see ya." says Izuku.
"Hey." says Victor as he nods to Katana.
"It's nice to see both of you." says Katana as he makes his way to a couch and sits down.
Izuku takes a seat on an open couch before saying, " So what do we go over first?"
"We discuss quirks." says Katana.
"Actually I was thinking we could get you a new name. Katana's kinda boring." says Victor.
"Speed demon." says Izuku.
"I'm not sure about that." says Victor.
"It's cheesy, tacky, and frankly overdone. That being said come up with something better that isn't taken by a memorable character." says Izuku.
"Flash"
"Taken"
"Sonic"
"Taken"
"Dash"
"Taken"
"Quickster"
"Taken"
"Speed o' sound sonic"
"Taken"
"You fucking serious?"
"Mhm."
"Alright. It's fine just call me speed demon. Although I'm sure that's taken too." says Katana (speed demon)
"It is." says Izuku.
Victor lets out an indignant noise mixed with a mutter that sounded vaguely like "The fuck"
"Okay can we discuss quirks now?" asks Speed demon.
"Sure. I'll go first. I have a wolf form that I fight in. I'm strong, fast, I have claws, and fangs. Also I have a bear form that's just wolf from but stronger that I can't hold for too long before I get burnt out." says Victor.
"Seems straightforward but helpful." says Izuku.
"What can you do?" asks Victor.
"I have super strength, speed, regeneration, senses, claws, fangs, and a transformative ability that lets me turn into a bat. Also I'm gonna need to drink the blood of every villain we knock out. It's the only thing that can keep me fed." says Izuku, " What about you speed demon?"
"I'm just fast. That's it, just fast." says Speed Demon.
"Sounds great." says Izuku, "Now that that's out of the way I'd like to discuss how we plan on splitting the money we take from villains."
"I'm fine with money. I'm retired now I've got everything set for me." says Victor.
"I come from a wealthy family. I don't really need money." says Speed Demon.
"Okay well I'm gonna go broke paying bills so I'm gonna take all the money. Any objections?" asks Izuku.
"It's fine." says Speed Demon.
"You do what you need too." says Victor.
"Thanks fellas." says Izuku.
"So what now?" asks Victor.
"I've got a target we could go after." suggest Speed Demon.
"Sounds great. What's he done to get our attention?" asks Izuku.
"He robs people late at night in a small part of the city away from most of the foot traffic. He doesn't let them live." says Speed Demon.
"What's his quirk?" asks Izuku.
"He salivates fast. But I'd be more worried about the revolver he carries." says Speed Demon.
"No problem. There's three of us." says Victor.
"Yeah, lead the way." says Izuku.
A little while Later Izuku, Victor and Speed demon were in downtown mustafu. Hopping from roof to roof looking for a certain thief.
"That's him." says Speed Demon while looking down on a back alley.
"Ketsuki, you want to take the lead on this? I know you've got a lot more experience in the field." says Victor.
"Yeah, I'll take him. Watch and learn old man." says Izuku.
"Little shit." mutters Victor.
Izuku jumps down into the alley behind the thief.
"Aye, yo chief. I need directions." calls out Izuku.
The thief turns around and Izuku jogs over.
"Can you tell me how to get uptown?" asks Izuku.
The thief squints at Izuku, finally noticing what he's wearing.
"Shit. Ketsu-" says The thief before Izuku flies forwards,grabs him and slams him into a wall. The impact knocked the gun out of his hand. Izuku throws him onto the ground. The thief crawls towards his gun but doesn't quite make it before Izuku kicks it away from him. Izuku grabs him by the collar and puts his pistol up to the villains head.
"It's a lot harder being the one with the gun to his head isn't it? Drop your wallet. You got money right? You been stealing so fuckin' much ya gotta have some on you." says Izuku.
The villain starts crying.
"Hell are you crying for bitch. Just give me the damn money." says Izuku.
The villain drops his wallet onto the ground. Izuku throws him down while making sure his gun is still pointed at him.
"You're disgusting. You take from others and cry when you get robbed. Well I guess you'll have plenty of time to cry in jail." says Izuku before kicking the villain in the head and knocking him out, "Fuckin' pussy'
Izuku looks back at Victor and Speed Demon before saying, "You can come down."
Izuku looks through the wallet and takes some money before putting the wallet back in the man's pocket. Izuku then proceeded to bite the man in the shoulder and drink from him.
"Jesus, Kid." says Victor.
"Just puttin' on a show for ya. It does piss me off though. I mean seriously if you're gonna rob and kill innocent people at least have a fucking spine when you get caught." says Izuku.
"I get it. He doesn't deserve to cry about this." says Victor.
"Exactly." says Izuku.
"I think this will be it for tonight. I'll take him to jail. You two have a nice night." says Speed Demon.
"Have a nice night." says Victor.
"See ya." says Izuku.
"Think we can do this again tommorow night?" asks Victor.
"Naw, I'm busy tommorow night. I gotta head home now. You have a nice night." says Izuku.
"You too kid." says Victor.
Izuku started to work his way back home. He hadn't slept in a while and he figured he'd really need to tonight. He's got a big day ahead of him tommorrow.
Authors Note
I'm sorry it took so long for me to get this out to you. This chapter kicked my ass to write. I tried night after night and I just couldn't seem to write anything down. The next chapter is gonna be the concert and maybe a flash forward to Izuku a couple hundred years in the future. I'm also wondering about about doing chapters that follow vlad and Ruby here and there. Just some character building stuff for Ruby. Another thing I'm thinking about is having characters like Izuku,Toga, and Dabi swearing as much as teenagers usually would.
Atomic Dragon 59: Eraser dad is pissed with his alcoholic boy. I love the idea of Izuku being jaded around the hero prospects so they kinda avoid him and Jirou walks up to him and asks for his autograph and the talk about his music. He could even play some for her. There will be rock star shenanagins. I'm considering having Present Mic be a fan of Izuku and inviting him on his podcast only to eventually find out he was sitting right next to Ketsuiki. One on one bonding is they key to a healthy relationship. I really can't Imagine Izuku making other people immortal. I don't think he would do it to anybody. It kinda defeats the purpose of him feeling like a monster if he'd give it to other people.
The guy that did that thing: You bring an excellent point and I will consider what you have said.
Amadeus Amadeus: I guess I'll still look into circle of the moon. The use of dropped cards to boost stats sounds like an interesting and fun game mechanic. So I'm thinking yes to circle of the moon, no to harmony of dissonance. That idea of a vampire den subplot was already running through my head. But it wasn't a subplot. I was thinking without vlad as the leader of the vampires there has to be a leader. And if this leader wasn't a good person with all the vampires working for him I've got a whole story arc. I think Toga is only crazy when she doesn't drink blood. I also like the idea of Toga finding someone else like her keeping her sane. Like if Izuku got arrested like I mentioned in this chapter she'd lose herself and become as crazy as she is in the show. I knew that humans killed Dracula's wife but I didn't know they killed her reincarnation. I'd probably hate people too if that happened to me. I like your ideas about the heavy refference but I was thinking something along the lines of, "WHO TOUCHED MY GUN!" for a heavy joke.
