Okay, shit, here we go. He's right there. He's walking into his hero agency.
"Hey there." says Izuku, "I've actually wanted to meet you for a while now."
"I try to make time for my fans but I've had a long day. I really just wanna go home and rest." says Hisashi.
"Dude, it's me." says Izuku.
"... Do I know you?" asks Hisashi.
"I'm literally your son." says Izuku.
"... Oh, oh … uh what are you doing in New York?" asks Hisashi.
"I'm just here for a few days. I haven't seen you in forever. I don't really know why I'm here considering I'm pretty sure I hate you, I guess I just want to talk." says Izuku.
"Okay sure. Just gimme a minute uhm, I gotta get out of my hero costume." says Hisahsi.
"Okay. Sounds good." says Izuku.
Fuck this felt Hisashi visibly felt awkward. Izuku was hoping he'd be a prick so he didn't have to be civil but he wasn't raising his voice at all. Izuku wants to tear into him but they are literally right outside his hero agency. He'll do it when they are alone. Then he'll black mail him. He's gotten kinda good at that. A little while later Hisashi walked out of his hero agency.
"I kinda expected you to run off… again." says Izuku.
"I thought about it… again." says Hisashi.
"You got anywhere we could talk?" asks Izuku.
"I've got a Penthouse not too far from here." says Hisashi.
"Lead the way man." says Izuku.
While Izuku walked to Hisashi's penthouse he noticed a couple of things. He really did look a lot like his dad. They had the same curly hair, same freckles, same nose, even the same ears. Although Hisashi's features were a lot sharper, he kinda looks like spike spiegel. He has the hair and everything. When Izuku got to Hisashi's penthouse he looked around, this was a pretty nice place.
"Mom should have asked for more alimony." says Izuku
"That's on her." says Hisashi.
"You got anything to drink?" asks Izuku.
"I've got water in the fridge." says Hisashi.
Izuku just stares at him.
"Oh, I'll grab a couple cans of bud light… wait how old are you?" asks Hisashi.
"Oh so you just suddenly care now?" asks Izuku, there it is he could really get under this guys skin now that he was in the comfort of someone else's own home.
"... fine I'll be right back." says Hisashi.
When Hisashi gets back with a pack of bud light Izuku decides to be a prick with his vampiric powers. He grabs the first can and eats the whole thing right in front of his dad. He doesn't drink it. He just eats it, no chewing, he unhinges his jaw and pushes the can down his throat with his hand. His throat bulges. He doesn't even gag. Once he's done he just sees Hisashi staring at him. He holds eye contact with Hisashi and grabs another can.
"Are you gonna drink that one?" asks Hisashi.
"Fine." says Izuku as he starts to drink like a normal.
"So… uhm." starts Hisashi.
"How is hero work?" asks Izuku.
"It's alright." says Hisashi.
"That's nice." says Izuku he really doesn't know what to say here. He wanted to just shout at the rat bastard in front of him but it feels like looking in an older mirror.
"So… what've you been up to?" asks Hisashi, at least he doesn't know what to say either.
"I got a job. I sell cars. I also got a girlfriend. That's cool." says Izuku, why was talking to this guy so hard?
"Good for you… look man I know there's a lot you want to say to me. Just get going." says Hisashi.
"... man there is a lot I want to say to you. I hate you, I really do. When you left I didn't feel broken up or hurt. It just didn't feel real. It took me some time but I realized it was real, that you were gone. I knew you weren't coming back. There's a lot I blame you for… but I didn't come here to blame you. I just wanted to know why, why you left. I remember parts but I was only four. Why'd you have to go and leave us like that?" asks Izuku, he felt awful saying this, he made sure to keep his voice steady and even the whole time he spoke.
"... Jesus christ. Man what am I even supposed to say to that? There were tons of reasons. I'd say you weren't one of them but you'd know I'm fulla shit. I was falling out with your mother for a while. I didn't want kids to begin with, much less a kid who can't even stick up for himself. I feel like a real piece of shit saying it out loud. I feel like an even bigger piece of shit because I know I'd do it again. I feel bad for leaving you, I really do, but I'm not gonna let you back into my life. I've done a lot in the past eleven years. I've done it by myself. I'm gonna keep doing it by myself." says Hisashi.
"Can I atleast stay here for a while. I don't have a place to stay while I'm here.." asks Izuku.
"No. Look I said I'm sorry but-" starts Hisashi.
"I'm gonna tell people you cut me with a beer bottle." says Izuku.
"Okay shit, fine you can stay a while, christ." says Hisashi.
"Oh one more thing." says Izuku.
"Uhg, what?" asks Hisashi.
Izuku pulls his suit out of his travel bag, "I'm the vigilante Ketsuiki. I'm not gonna explain how I got powers. I just wanted to let you know because I have leverage over you and you can't say anything."
"Come on I'm not a dumba-" starts Hisashi again.
Izuku grows claws and slashes his forearm and heals the wound in front of his dad's eyes.
"Okay wow." says Hisashi.
"Yeah, do you have a guest room?" asks Izuku.
"Yes, but first, what's stopping me from telling everyone that you're a vigilante?" asks Hisashi.
"Yeah, I'm a quirkless vigilante with known superpowers. No I'm not crazy also my dad stabbed me with a beer bottle." says Izuku.
"Fair point." says Hisashi.
A little while later Izuku was on top of Hisashi's apartment building. He was pretty excited it would be his first night patrolling in the United States. He turned into a bat and flew around looking for something. He flew around for a little bit. He couldn't move like he normally did. The buildings were too tall. He had to fly unless he brought his car but he didn't want to do that. Eventually he saw a couple of people fighting in a parking lot. It seemed like as good a place to start as any. As he got closer he realized it wasn't a brawl it was five guys just beating the absolute shit out of somebody. Izuku landed in front of the guy who was getting his ass kicked as he turned back into a human.
"Don't worry. I got yer back." says Izuku.
"Woah." says one of the assailants, "Guys it's Ketsuiki. We're your biggest fans."
"Uhm. My fans shouldn't go around beating people shitless." says Izuku.
"But he's a robber." says the smallest assailant.
Izuku turns around and slugs the robber, he knocks him out with one swing.
"I've never met a fan of mine in person." says Izuku.
"We're big fans. We saw you on TV and thought, 'hey that was some pretty cool shit' then we started beating up villains." says One of them.
"Oh you guys are the New York vigilantes. Yall are the reason I came out here." says Izuku.
"You came to meet us?" asks the short one.
"Yeah. I've heard of vigilantes popping up all around after I fought the Shie Hassaikai. I decided I'd go around and meet a couple. Do yall wanna go somewhere and get to know each other?" says Izuku.
"Sure, you can come back to our place." says the biggest one.
"That's very kind of you… did you say our?" asks Izuku.
"We live together, we're brothers." says the big one.
"Cool, well lead the way." says Izuku.
A little while later Izuku and the brothers were in a small apartment. At least it was small for all five of the brothers.
"So, could you guys give me some names to put to your faces?" asks Izuku.
"Sure." says the big one, "I'm Johnny Johnson. I'm the eldest brother. I practically raise these little shits."
"It's true. I'm Jeremy Johnson. I'm the second eldest." says Jeremy.
"I'm Jeremy's twin brother Joey Johnson. We're twins and we're Identical." says Joey as he points to Jeremy.
Izuku nods along sagely.
"I'm Jimmy Johnson. I'm the second youngest." says Jimmy.
"I'm Jay Johnson. I'm the youngest brother." says Jay.
"Cool." says Izuku, "If you don't mind I'd like to know you're quirks."
"I can take electrical energy and turn it into kinetic energy so that I can hit real hard." says Johnny.
"I can take electric energy and let it flow through metal objects." says Jeremy.
"I can take electric energy and let it flow through my skin when I hit people." says Joey.
"I can take electric energy and power up electronic devices." says Jimmy.
"I absorb and release water." says Jay.
"Are you guys from around here?" asks Izuku.
"We're actually from Boston." says Johnny.
"That explains the accents." says Izuku.
"It also explains our group name. We're the Boston Bashers." says Joey.
"We never agreed on that." says Jeremy, "I still think we should be the Johnson five."
"It's an alright name but it has it's problems." says Johnny.
"Like what?" asks Jeremy.
"It tells people we're related. It tells people our last name. It puts us in danger." says Johnny.
"There's plenty of groups of five siblings with the last name Johnson." says Jeremy.
"Name one." says Johnny.
"Those guys we both know. The ones down in Boston." says Jeremy.
"Bitch... Do you mean our cousins?" asks Johnny.
"... that's actually a pretty good point." says Jeremy.
"So we agree? We're the Boston Bashers?" asks Johnny.
Everyone agrees but Jeremy doesn't say anything.
"Jeremy?" says Johnny.
"I still don't like it." says Jeremy.
All the brothers collectively groan.
"But I accept it." says Jeremy.
"All right the Boston Bashers are in business baby." says Jay.
"You guys know anybody we could go after?" asks Izuku.
"Yeah, an old friend from college just robbed a store." says Johnny.
"I don't think petty theft is all that bad." says Izuku.
"It was a mom and pop joint." says Johnny.
"Okay wow let's rock his shit, is he with a gang or something?" asks Izuku.
"He's with the flock. All of them have bird related quirks." says Johnny.
"Okay. People that can fly have an easy time getting away. Try to grab them if you can. Do yall have masks?" asks Izuku.
"Yeah, we're ready to go." says Johnny.
"Great let's go." says Izuku.
A little while later the six of them were walking down to a pretty big house. It was where the flock lived. It was gonna be a six on six fight. Izuku wasn't sure about how tough his new friends were but he supposes they could handle it.
Johnny and Joey came unarmed. Jeremy was holding an aluminum bat to channel electricity through. Jay brought a led pipe. Jimmy was on an electric motor cycle, he could power it up with his quirk and he could make it accelerate faster, he also brought a fairly long chain.
"So how are we gonna do this smart and quiet or loud and stupid?" asks Izuku.
"None of us are very smart." says Jimmy.
"I'm gonna ram our way through the door. Yall run in and start swinging. Jimmy stay outside and tail anybody that gets away or knock them out if you get the chance." says Izuku.
Everybody agreed on what to do and the fight started. Izuku charged through the door shoulder first. Two people on the living room couch got up. Johnny and Joey tackled them. Joey shocked them and Johnny beat the feathers off of them. Jeremy hit the guy coming downstairs with his bat. Izuku and Jay ran upstairs after the other three. When they found them they were climbing out a window. Izuku ran after them, jumped through a window and grabbed one by the legs. He swung from that guys legs and kicked one down. He saw Jimmy come at him with the bike. Jay put his finger in the pipe and used it like a pressurized water gun and shot one down. Izuku threw the guy he was hanging onto down to the street below. He angled himself when he landed so his elbow hit the guys head and knocked him out. Once they were all knocked out Izuku tied their hands and wings, took his blood and scouted the house for money. He found money that he split with the Johnsons. He also found bags of angel dust, cannabis and percs. He'd take those to Dabi. Maybe a little for himself but nobody needs to know about that. All in all his first night with the Boston Bashers paid fairly well all things considered.
Authors Note
I finally brought in more vigilantes. I want to have a whole network of vigilantes. I wont introduce all of them, just know that they're out there. I sort of want to have Izuku unintentionally start a worldwide vigilante movement. I think that would be a good place to go with the story. I like this chapter. I liked the part with Izuku and Hisashi. I based there conversation largely off of episode ten of Cowboy Bebop: Ganymede Elegy. Although I think the funnest part of this chapter to write were the Johnsons. I vaguely based Jimmy off the main character from the Movie Akira. At least his fighting style and although I didn't describe it he looks pretty similar too. All of the brothers look kind of similar to that if it helps you envision them in the chapter. I like the one guy with the water quirk, I even considered giving him a name that doesn't start with J. I don't know what I'm gonna do for the next chapter. I'm either gonna do more stuff with the Johnson five or finally have Izuku show up on present Mic's podcast. I might do both.
Guest: I'm super glad you like it. Sometimes it's hard for me to get into a writing mood but I always end up enjoying what I make. I've got to plans for the Story. One where Izuku goes to U.A and one where he doesn't it all depends on one thing. I'd like to see him go to U.A but I also like my other path the story could take. When I get their I'll present the two options and hold a pole to see which happens. I hope you have a nice month as well.
Amadeus Amadeus: All Might and Gran Torino know what Vampires are. All Might doesn't know what Izuku is yet. When I said Alucard was killed after he killed Dracula I meant directly after. He hadn't finished regenerating yet and the man who killed him was someone who he thought he could trust. He was used like a pawn and murdered. I had an idea for the Vampire king. Basically he was born in the Early quirk era and knew All For One. He had a panther quirk and was turned into a vampire by a vampire who just wanted to strengthen his bloodline before humans grew strong enough to meet a vampire in a fight. His quirk was boosted by the Vampiric transformation and he can control his size. He can grow into a massive panther around the size of monster Overhaul but still smaller.
Yeah you're completely right about Marceline being to Ice king as Ruby is to Vlad.
I'm gonna keep it real with you, Neither I or Izuku know how to play chess. I don't know at all what that is.
I don't want Izuku to be anybody's reincarnation. I want him to be his own person completely himself. Also All For One didn't mean a literal whole in his chest it was just a Metaphor for some form of suffering.
Draconic King: I was thinking Izuku and Vlad would have Discussions on ethics and morality but I could see Vlad giving him pointers on being a stronger vampire. Nobody knows more about it than he does.
Atomic Dragon 59: It had to be one or the other with Izuku talking to his dad but I tried to show that Izuku really wanted to hurt his dad or at least mess with him. I'd actually love to see Izuku drunk call Aizawa and just complain about the stress. About how he can hardly afford food over the bills and he can tell his already malnourished roommates are getting skinnier because whenever he can afford some decent food they give it to Eri. Or talking about how hungry he is constantly and how he hates drinking villains blood because he absorbs a part of them but he doesn't want to drink the blood of the innocent.
I hope whatever is bothering you or keeping you down patches itself up. I know I don't know you personally but you're a homie, I can tell. Good luck to you and I can't wait too see you return.
