Well it's starting to look like Izuku's gonna have to deal with the vampires and the syndicate now. He'll be busy, but the harder he works now the less he has to worry about later. How would he even begin tracking vampires. They probably move around unlike the syndicate. He wishes he knew a vampire hunter or something like that.
"Hey… Gabe?" says Izuku.
"Who is this?" comes Gabes voice?
"That vampire you chose not to kill. Nice to see ya again Gabe." says Izuku.
"My name's Gabriella." says Gabriella.
"Oh yeah. For some reason in my head you were an overweight dude in his fifties, not a young woman, but here I am just as wrong as usual." says Izuku.
"... I'll choose to pretend you didn't say that, anyway what do you want from me?" asks Gabriella.
"Are you down to help me kill some vampires?" asks Izuku.
"I guess. Vampires are hard to track though." says Gabriella.
"Well how do you track them?" asks Izuku.
"You need the DNA of someone who met them." says Gabriella.
"I'm gonna be honest, that sounds like some real horse shit." says Izuku.
"Look, I don't know how magic works. I'm not a magician. It just works." says Gabriella.
"I mean, all right I guess. Well I met them so I'll stop by the Belmont stronghold later today." says Izuku.
"Yeah, that's a really bad idea." says Gabriella.
"Why?" asks Izuku.
"You're walking into the lion's den buddy." says Gabriella.
"Yall got lions?" asks Izuku.
Gabriella sighs deeply, "It's -"
"A metaphor I know. I'm just messing with you. I'll stop by later, see ya." says Izuku.
"Hey uh, please don't." says Gabriella.
Izuku hangs up. He's gonna do it anyway. A little trip to Kurogir's and he's at the coordinates where he can see Dracula's castle. Ruby told him about where it was. The Belmont stronghold should be near there. Maybe it's that smaller castle off to the side. The one with the Belmont family crest.
"Hello." calls Izuku, "Anybody home."
"State your business." comes a voice from the other side of the gate.
"Ya know, you're allowed to talk like a normal person." says Izuku.
Izuku can hear whoever he's talking to sigh deeply.
"What are you doing all the way out here man. We're in the middle of nowhere." says Izuku.
"Well I was just in the neighborhood. Visiting the old family home. You know I thought I'd check on the neighbors." says Izuku.
"... Oh shit." says whoever was on the other side of that gate.
Izuku hears footsteps getting further away from the gate and closer to the stronghold itself.
He hears the door open, "Guys, we got a problem." He hears the door close.
The next time the door opens there are like twelve sets of footsteps. It's fine Gabriella was probably with them. The gate opens and there are twelve livid vampire hunters glaring at Izuku. Gabriella isn't one of them. Uh oh.
"Howdy." says Izuku.
"What are you doing here?" asks one of them.
"Are you Gabriella's dad?" asks Izuku.
"I am." replies Gabe's dad.
"Could I borrow your daughter?" asks Izuku.
"Come again." replies Gabe's dad.
"I'd rather not I get the feeling I'm not welcome here." says Izuku.
"You actually showed up." comes Gabriella's voice from behind.
"Oh hi Gabe." says Izuku.
"Stop calling me that." says Gabriella.
"Naw, I think it's funny." says Izuku.
"Dad this is…" starts Gabriella, "Izuku Midoriya."
"You know my name?" asks Izuku.
"I recognize you." says Gabriella.
"Oh duh." says Izuku.
"Anyways, Izuku this is my dad Vincent." says Gabriella.
"Nice to meet ya I guess." says Izuku.
"Yeah, I guess." says Vincent, "What are you doing here though?"
"She didn't tell you?" asks Izuku, "I need help hunting a couple of vampires. They're real pieces of shit. Talkin about vampires are so much better than humans. We gotta rule the world again. Like no we're not and no we don't."
"You don't believe in vampiric superiority?" asks Vincent.
"If we're so much better than you then why are there less than twenty of us left?" asks Izuku.
"What do you mean less than twenty?" asks Gabriella.
"You guys don't know? A bunch of them got together and tried to overthrow Vlad. He killed most of them. Alucard killed him. Then Alucard was stabbed in the back by the current vampire king. So basically all of us are dead." says Izuku.
"Oh… okay. That's a lot to take in." says Vincent, "You're not just using us to become the vampire king are you?"
"Buddy I'm killing all of them. I'm gonna be the king of myself and my aunt, and I'm not gonna lord over my aunt just cause I killed a couple of dumb ass vampires." says Izuku.
"You talk about killing like you've done it before." says Vincent.
"He's a vigilante." says Gabriella.
"Oh, he's that one." says Vincent.
"See I've never murdered anybody. I've killed people, but I've never killed anybody." says Izuku.
"Still a killer." says Vincent.
"You really gonna sit there and tell me shooting a rapist twelve times in the chest is anything other than a public service? I'm a lot like you people, I think. We both hunt monsters, it's just the monsters I hunt are a little more some cases a little less." says Izuku.
"Well, I gotta admit. That's a real good point." says Vincent.
"So, will you guys help me hunt them down?" asks Izuku.
"We'll help you find them. Anyone who wants to go with you will. Most people here aren't very trusting of vampires though." says Vincent.
"I'll hunt with you." says Gabriella.
"Thank you." replies Izuku, "I've got a buddy I could bring with us for a little extra man power."
"Sounds good. Follow me and we'll track down your vampire friends." says Gabriella, "Jess, you mind helping us?"
"Naw, I'll find them for you." says Jess.
"You can't do it?" asks Izuku.
"I'm a hunter not a magician." replies Gabriella.
"Spit in this bowl." says Jess.
Izuku complies, "So is she your sister? Your cousin?"
"She's my sister. I've also got three brothers." says Gabriela.
"Damn, y'all got a big ass family." says Izuku.
"What about you?" asks Gabriella.
"For a while it was just me and my mom. I recently met my dad's side of the family. Mostly though I consider the Vigilante's my family. Them and a couple of villains. But they aint that bad." says Izuku.
"Found em." says Jess.
"Where?" asks Izuku.
"Three in New York City. Three in Puerto Rico. One in New Mexico. One in Thailand." says Jess.
"Old Mexico's bad enough. Wait a minute. That doesn't cover all of them." says Izuku.
"We'll have to take something from the ones you kill." says Jess.
"We'll handle that part." says Gabriella.
"Good hunting you two." says Jess as they step out of Jess's magic room.
"We should go after the one in Thailand or New Mexico first." says Gabriella.
"No." says Izuku, "The leader is one of the few that I met. He's stronger than he let on, I think. He's one of the few that's alone. He strikes me as that type of guy. We should go after the New Yorkers. I've got friends down there that can help."
"Alright. I'll trust you. You can think like a vampire." says Gabriella.
"Well I gotta talk some people into helping us. You want me to come pick you up when I'm done or do you want to meet the people we're working with?" asks Izuku.
"If I'm gonna be traveling then I need to pack my bags." says Gabriella.
"Okay. I'll be back soon. I'll text you." says Izuku.
Like an hour-ish later
"Hey Speedy." says Izuku.
"Hey kid." replies Speed Demon.
"Wanna help me kill some vampires?" asks Izuku.
"For real?" asks Speed Demon.
"Yup." replies Izuku.
"I've always wanted to know more about vampires. It won't get me in trouble with the syndicate so sure." replies Speed Demon.
Later that night
"You two let me do the talking. I know the guy that owns these apartments." says Izuku before knocking on the door.
"Who is it?" comes Hisashi's voice.
"It's me." replies Izuku.
"Who?" asks Hisashi.
"Your son." replies Izuku.
The door opens.
"Hey pop." says Izuku.
"Hey son." says Hisashi.
"Don't call me that." says Izuku.
That seemed a little tense to Gabriella and Speed Demon.
"You two settle in on the couch." says Izuku, "Pop, let's talk in your room."
Izuku and his dad walk into the master bedroom and Gabriella and Speed Demon sit on the couch.
"So… what's your name?" asks Gabriella.
"They call me speed demon. It's because-" starts Speed Demon.
"Because you have super speed." suggests Gabriella.
"Yup." says Speed Demon, "So what's your name?"
"I'm Gabriella. I'm a vampire hunter. So I've got some experience with what we're gonna be doing." says Gabriella.
"Cool." says Speed Demon.
The two fall into a comfortable silence. They just sit there staring out the window or at their phones for around five minutes.
"WOULD YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP?" comes Hisashi's voice.
"Um." starts Gabriella.
"THEN FUCKING HELP ME. YOU FEEL SO DAMN BAD, THEN MAKE IT UP TO ME. FUCKING DO SOMETHING." Shouts Izuku.
"Should we do something?" asks Speed Demon.
"YOU CAN'T JUST HOLD THAT OVER MY HEAD FOREVER. I MADE A MISTAKE. I FEEL BAD FOR IT. I STILL CAN'T JUST THROW MY WHOLE CAREER AWAY FOR IT THOUGH." shouts Hisashi.
"Maybe." says Gabriella, "I don't really know the situation."
"YOU MADE A MISTAKE? YOU MADE A FUCKING MISTAKE? YOU HEAR THAT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN? HE MADE A MISTAKE. HISASHI MIDORIYA, THE GREAT HERO DRAGON'S BREATH MADE A MISTAKE WHEN HE LITERALLY FUCKING STABBEDD HIS ONLY CHIlD." Shouts Izuku.
"Okay, let's get in there." says Gabriella.
As soon as she opens the door she's met with both Izuku and Hisashi saying the exact same thing, "GET BACK ON THAT DAMN COUCH."
She happily obliges.
"I thought you were gonna stop that." says Speed Demon.
"You wanna stop it?" asks Gabriella.
"I'll just sit with you." replies Speed Demon.
"IT'S A PUBLIC SERVICE. YOU'RE FIGHTING VILLAINS. LET'S JUST GO GET EM." Shouts Izuku.
"IT'S STILL ILLEGAL FOR ME TO WORK WITH YOU." SHouts Hisashi.
"YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE IS ILLEGAL? DRUNKENLY STABBING A FOUR YEAR OLD BOY WITH A BOTTLE OF HOOCH, YOU FUCKING DUMB ASS." Shouts Izuku.
"OH YOU JUST LOVE BRINGING UP THE PAST DON'T YOU? I WAS DRUNK IT WASN'T EVEN MY FAULT." Shouts Hisashi.
"YOU KNEW WHAT YOU DID WHEN YOU SOBERED UP BUT YOU KEPT DRINKING. YOU KEPT GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. YOU SHOULD HAVE QUIT A WHILE BEFORE THEN. AND I LOVE BRINGING UP THE PAST, ARE YOU SHITTING ME? THE SCAR IS STILL THERE IT MIGHT BE THE PAST FOR YOU BUT IT'S STUCK TO ME YOU JACKASS." Shouts Izuku.
"I FUCKED YOUR MOM." Shouts Hisashi.
Gabriella and Speed Demon hear two loud thumps and a burst of flame. This time they both run to the door. When they open it they see Hisahi on the floor with a bloody nose and Izuku with his right sleeve burnt off.
"Okay, you two are done." says Gabriella, "We're leaving."
"Yeah, sure." says Izuku.
"Wait." says Hisashi.
"What?" snaps Izuku.
"Stay the night. We'll find them tomorrow." says Hisashi .
"Thank you. That's all you had to fucking say. Nobody's even gonna know it was you." says Izuku as he and his gang walk out of Hisashi's room.
"You alright man?" asks Speed Demon.
"He didn't burn anything but my jacket." says Izuku.
"That's not what I meant." says Speed Demon.
"... I'm sorry that you had to see that. I didn't expect him to be so difficult. Wasn't expecting him to be drunk either. I can't stand him when he's drunk." says Izuku.
"You've had interactions like this before?" asks Speed Demon.
"Not often… stop prying." says Izuku firmly.
"Sure. Sorry." says Speed Demon.
"Don't apologize." says Izuku, "Gabby you take the guest room there. Speed Demon you take the couch. I'm gonna go sleep on one of the patio chairs out on the terrace. I don't have the energy to deal with these vampires tonight."
Authors Note
This was fun to write. Arguments are always fun for me. This might be my favorite argument so far. Either that or the car ride with Bakugou. I liked the start of the chapter with the Belmonts. It felt funny when I wrote it then when I read it back it wasn't funny at all. I'm gonna stick with my first instincts and hope y'all find that funny and that I'm just insecure.
We're finally getting into the vampire hunter arc. I've had this planned for a while. I'm gonna give Izuku some cool new powers. Some of which are actually useless to him. Others actually help him out a lot. I'm not sure if I should talk about them but for now I'll let them be a surprise. You guys are probably gonna see some of them next chapter anyway.
I haven't done anything with the discord like the clown that I am. I'd say something right now but it's two AM and nobody's here. I'll try tomorrow. Here is the discord code.

This part isn't as important but just yesterday I beat super mario sunshine. It was pretty fun. I like mario 64 a lot more to be honest. I watched BNA in one day it was kinda cool. Kinda got some furry vibes from it tbh. It's cool though cuz I liked the show overall. I've also been watching Lupin the 3rd part 2. I already finished part one. So far Jigen is my favorite character. That's pretty much all I've been doing recently but I do plan on playing through mario galaxy and mario galaxy 2.
Random 65: Hatsume is super fun to write just cause she's kinda crazy. I'd like to do a little more with her later on. Maybe I could have Izuku work on his car in her workshop or something like that. Vigilante / villain team up was actually my friends idea. I talked with him about my ideas for this and he had some pretty good ideas.
Frozen Drake: Thanks for the kind words. I'd like to do a little more with Vlad but I also want a lot of him to just never be mentioned. He isn't willing to say everything, neither is Ruby or Alucard. Izuku won't get much from anybody except for some of the vampires Izuku's going to fight. His axe is gonna start playing a bigger role in a lot of his fights now that it feels comfortable in his hands. I imagine him smacking people with the blunt side to knock them out. For the vampires he's gonna be fighting the objective is to kill them so he won't pull his punches. I'm really loving mental image your giving me. Also thank you for joining the discord. I should have said something but I always forget this has a discord.
Amadeus Amadeus: It sure has been a while, and I'm glad to see you back. How've you been?
That hotel transylvania joke is my peak acheivement in life. I'll literally never top that. I wish I could, but I can't.
I personally have always thought of happiness as an emotion, while I think of being joyful as a state of being. You can be a miserable person and still find something to make you briefly happy. Like Toga, Eri, and Dabi make him happy like nothing else can, but when he's not with them he has a harder time being happy. That's why he always finds something to do. If he's not happy or distracted he doesn't like his thoughts. I don't remember if it was you or someone else but I think it was you that said Izuku thinks if you can't run from your problems then you aren't running fast enough. I thought that was the perfect way to write him. He always surrounds himself with people or something to do because he can't handle being alone although he has a better time with it if he's drunk or high. Of course being drunk or high just ads to his problem because now his brain tells him he needs it even when he's with people or doing something.
For the other story idea I imagine him having Miruko's legs and Hawks' wings. I'm not sure about him being able to control all the feathers as I feel that's two much power. I don't know if he'd be a villain or a hero. I haven't though into it that deep. If I did do it I know he would start as a low level criminal commiting petty theft to get by. He'd either meet Giran or Aizawa and that would control where his life goes. Actually he could get to meet both and have to choose between them. I could see the vigilante thing, but if I wrote another story I'd kind of want to take a different route rather than having two vigilante anti hero stories. I'd want a rise to hero or fall to villain.
