Case file #11: Midoriya Himiko. Formerly Toga Himiko.
"Dear Diary, I feel bad for anyone who mess with that family."
Blood...
Himiko crashed into a trash can and tumbled onto the floor along with its content. Not even attempting to stand up, Himiko weakly dug through mess she just made, looking for any edible food.
Blood... She needed blood...
Grabbing a dead mouse, Himiko dug her sharp teeth into it, sucking out the disgusting taste.
Human blood... She needed human blood...
Her vision became blurry as the voice inside her head kept getting louder and louder, overwhelming her sanity. The flicking streetlights became marks for her to keep moving forward. Soon enough, she saw someone.
A human. A boy. Couldn't be older than herself.
Despite whatever rational thought left in her, Himiko aimed straight at him. She tackled him down to the ground and dug her teeth into his neck. Just as she did the rat hours ago. Just as she did every animals she managed to sneak into her room, away from her parents.
Her name was Toga Himiko.
And she wasn't normal. Just as her parents have always told her.
She was a monster.
"So, I'll see you tomorrow, Shuzenji-sensei~." Izuku bowed goodbye to her with a sleepy expression.
"You look like you can barely walk." Chiyo sighed. "Let me drive you home. A missing student is the last thing I need right now."
"It's fine~." Izuku slowly chuckled. "My mom is waiting for me and my sister outside. Do you want to talk to her~?"
"It's alright, dearie. Tell her I said hello." Chiyo smiled. "You sure you can come to the Second Year's Sport Festival tomorrow?"
"I'll be fine after a good sleep~." He waved her off as he began to leave.
As soon as Izuku came out of U.A's gate, he was immediately tackled by a shorter figure with blond hair. As the girl hugged her arm around Izuku's neck, he could feel his neck being softly bitten into. Instead of resisting, Izuku gently patted his assaulter's head and continued to move towards his mother, who giggled as she helped him into the car.
"Alright, what do you kids want for dinner?" Inko asked as she drove. "Sushi?"
"Izuku!"
"Katsudon."
"We ate Katsudon last week, Izuku." Inko said, making Izuku pout. "And you're already eating him, Himiko."
Himiko just replied with a shameless grin.
"-I'll be home in 30 minutes, Izuku." Inko's voice rang through the phone. "Can you go to your friend's house in the meantime?"
"Shiozaki said her family is out for dinner today. I'll just swing by the convenience store." Izuku scratched his head. "Sorry for bothering you, mom."
"Nonsense." Inko told him. "Everyone forgets their keys at one point. I'll be home in a jiffy."
Seeing his mother had ended the call, Izuku left for the convenience store. The night breeze made him shiver slightly as he hastened his steps, trying to get to the store to stay away from the cold. The street was oddly quiet, despite it being a Thursday's night. Izuku didn't see anyone on his way, and he didn't know if it made him more nervous or relief. A blond girl with blood on her face and the flickering streetlights sure didn't help-
Wait.
Before Izuku could realize what he was seeing, he was tackled down onto the ground. Exhaustion combining with his head being slammed hardly into the ground, Izuku could only groan as he felt teeth bit into his neck, his blood being sucked out. As seconds went on, Izuku could feel the girl dug her teeth deeper into him, overwhelming his exhaustion with pain.
And he felt droplets of tears on his cheek. And he was certain it wasn't his.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry...!" He heard her whisper.
Izuku noticed the girl tightened her hold on him as she sobbed. Izuku then put his hand on her head and whispered with the softest tone he could.
"You look malnourished and exhausted, Vampire-san. I'll use my Quirk to help with the exhaustion, alright? Try not to suck too much of my blood."
The girl didn't reply, but she held onto Izuku's arm tighter. Taking that as confirmation, Izuku used his Quirk on her.
"My name is Midoriya Izuku, by the way." He smiled. "Can I ask for yours?"
"... Himiko." She replied.
"Okay, Himiko-san. Is it okay for me to guess that your Quirk is pushing you to do this for blood?"
As his guess, he could feel Himiko flinch.
"It's okay, Himiko-san." He patted her head. "It's a normal Quirk's requirement. Why you are even in this state is more concern-"
"Normal...?" Himiko's whisper almost became inaudible.
"Normal." Despite the pain at the back of his neck, Izuku nodded. "Just as normal as me having an unhealthy craving for energy drinks. My mom drinks coffee more than she does water. Everyone has different needs. It's normal."
"Does that mean I'm... normal, too?"
"It's normal for you to want blood, Himiko-san." Izuku chuckled. "I still do not recommend attacking passerby. It's dangerous for both you and the party involved. But I suppose I'm your first 'meal'?"
Himiko shakily nodded as tears continued to flow through her eyes.
"Then I suppose it's fine." Izuku nodded before pulling out a piece of paper. "Here."
Himiko took the piece of paper from him and studied it. "What... is this?"
"Swing by this address later. A detective will help you if you want."
"You just gonna... help me?" Himiko's voice became shakier as she screamed. "I just attacked you!"
"Because you had to." Izuku shrugged. "I want to help. Also, you're going to have to carry me home 'cause I'm seeing three of you upside down and I don't think that's a good sign."
Izuku's vision went black and once again, his head hit the cold floor.
"Himiko?" Inko called out.
From the couch, Himiko turned her attention away from caressing a sleeping Izuku's fluffy hair. She smiled at Inko and asked.
"What's up, Inko-san?"
"I... kind of have some news for you." Inko anxiously said. "I'd rather you hear it from me than the news... Okay, here goes-!"
"Is it about my parents?"
Himiko giggled at Inko's dumbfounded expression. "I guess it really is. What about them?"
"We finally got the proof to put them behind bars. For good, this time." Inko sighed. "Also, they said a lot of... things about you, so I may or may not have decked them in their faces."
"You didn't have to do that." Himiko smiled. "It's okay. I'm fine now."
"I know I didn't have to." Inko shrugged. "I wanted to. But because of that, I am on 1-week suspension pay."
"So, like... a vacation?"
"The commissioner wrote it off as 'raising my hand a little too high'." Inko grinned. "By the way, we ran out of blood for your dinner. You want to go and get some?"
"It's only for a night. I'll be fine."
"Nuh-uh." Inko went over behind the couch to poke Himiko's cheek. "You can take blood directly from me. I don't mind."
"It- It may hurt you. It's alrigh-"
"Hey, hey." Inko laughed as she teasingly pinched Himiko's cheeks. "You bite Izuku every day. If you don't bite me too, I'm going to feel left out!"
Himiko laughed together with Inko as she wrapped her behind, over Inko's shoulder to hug her.
Her name was Midoriya Himiko.
And like her brother and mom said, she is normal. No, she's more than that.
She is happy.
A/N: Himiko and Izuku met when they were still in middle school, by the way. Inko took her in as soon as she opened up about her living situation. The non-italic is the night of the First Year's sport festival.
Himiko goes to Ketsubutsu. She's a second year.
And obviously, Inko lit Himiko's parents' asses on fire.
