Chapter 5: Journal of a Teenage Vampire

Summary:

Selections from the journal of Ochako Uraraka, teenage vampire.

Notes:

I loved this AU so much I came back to it! Enjoy!

Chapter Text

Day 1: 

 

I haven't kept a journal since I was a little girl. 8, or maybe 9 years old. Half my life ago, it feels like, and I guess it was. I wonder when I'll think of half of my life having passed.

 

Let me start with yesterday. 

 

We (Deku, Yaomomo, Shouto, Bakugo, and me) had to fight Shigaraki alone after he split off from the rest of the bad guys in the raid. He got me. I felt my foot get pierced by a jagged piece of rebar sticking up out of the rubble I landed on. I think Shigaraki used some quirk to bend the metal and trap me. 

 

Funny, that the same rebar I bruised and cut my hands on so many times helping out would get me one more time. 

 

Mom, Dad, I owe you so many apologies. I promise I'll help, even like this.

 

Shigaraki got me. He touched my boot and it turned to dust. My foot and my ankle were just gone. It went up my calf and, Kami, I was sure I was gonna die.

 

Well, I guess I was right! Just not the way I thought. Momo saved me. By killing me and turning me into a vampire like her.

 

I'm a fucking vampire. Whatthefuckwhatthefuck

 

I've got it now, journal, thanks to Deku. He just spent 10 minutes calming me down. I love him so much. I think I always will. Always has a new meaning, for both of us.

 

So, I'm a fucking vampire, and Momo sacrificed herself, and I don't even know how this works or what to do or (how to bite people) how to feed? Drink? Ugh, I don't even know the right words! 

 

Izuku says I can bite him any time I want. LOL

 

Momo will be back, somehow? Todoroki wasn't sure, but he said something about her energy reforming into a new body if she gets "discorporated" or something. I'll ask the smarter people when I've slept.

 

DO vampires sleep? 



Day 2:

 

Yes, Vampires sleep. I was very sleepy and passed out for like 14 hours before Izuku tried giving me a little blood from a bag, like the kind they use at clinics and things. It woke me right up! I think sunlight isn't really an issue, but I'm wearing sunglasses anyway because I can see so much better! 

 

Journal, I left SO MUCH out yesterday! I found that even though we took down Shigaraki, the real body of All For One is somewhere out there in a prison cell. I guess the plan was Shigaraki was going to break him out or something, but we stopped that thankfully. Jeez, that entire thing is wild even without the supernatural magic stuff that I know now. (that I AM now) 

 

Jirou's a Siren. It fits, honestly. I think she's actually only like ¼ Siren, but she used a fuckton of magic and burned out part of her nervous system or something. Nobody is allowed to see her yet. 

 

We're figuring out how Izuku's changed with all the new quirks. He doesn't even know how many there are now. Hundreds for sure.

 

I have fangs. They're really sharp and pointy and I cut my lip a bunch of times trying to talk.

 

We had to explain stuff to the class today. They were glad to know Momo's not gone forever, and also a little freaked out. Can't blame them.

 

Tsu offered to give me blood, and so did Toru. Mina's scared to. The boys were all asking Izuku about his new quirks and stuff, except Iida who came over and talked to me a little. I can't believe how much has changed since that first day in the battle trials, when he laughed and monologued like some dumb villain. 

 

Night-time update: OK, so I already wrote today's entry and then I have a really bad stomach cramp, and Izu thought maybe I was hungry/thirsty so he offered to let me bite him.

 

Oh my gosh, journal, I bit him! Fuuuuuck me it was so good! Why is it so good!

 

He sat down on the bed in my room and held up his wrist and I could see his pulse, I could practically smell the blood in his veins and my fangs got super long and i saw his eyes go wide and I started apologizing

And then

This boy man, this amazing hero, started stroking my hair with his other hand and held his wrist up to my mouth

And I BIT HIM

I dont know how much i drank but it was a lot

 

He tastes amazing

Is this what drugs are like? He's so good to me

 

I'm gonna go give him a reward ;)



Day 4: 

 

OK, things I have figured out:

 

Izuku has some super healing quirks now which makes him an unlimited blood bank

 

I need something like 10oz a day to keep functioning, which honestly is amazingly small if you think about how much energy is contained within that little volume and how much I am using

 

I do not get One for All by drinking his blood, or any other DNA transfer process which shall remain nameless, so far anyway (makes me think of Himiko Toga)

 

I sampled a few drops of Toru's and Tsu's blood last night. They taste different. All of them seem ok, but it's like different flavors? Hard to categorize. Izuku's is the best though!

 

Izuku says he can build me a spreadsheet to keep track :)

 

I dunno how to do the Jedi mind trick thingy yet but Todoroki says Momo was super good at it. 

 

Momo. I only found out recently that she was a vampire and about One For All and everything, but she swore an oath to protect the holder of One For All. She told me a little about how she'd kind of pushed me and Deku together, because she thought I was better at helping him than she was.

 


That's why she saved me and turned me. To save Izuku. (if it wasn't for him would i be dead-dead now? Would she let that happen?) if i really helped Deku beat the bad guy, if i wasn't there would he have done it? 



I'm glad she did it. I still haven't told my parents yet. They know something's up and I've even gotten to see them for a few minutes yesterday and the day before since the families of all the students got to come down to UA, but we are still really busy cleaning up everything. They're helping too, passing out water bottles and emergency clothing and shelter to people displaced by the destruction. I know they're so proud of their little girl but I can't help but think… what if they won't love me anymore because 



Day 5:

 

Hi, journal, sorry for the abrupt ending, Izuku was reading over my shoulder and when he was what I was typing he closed the screen, picked me up with Blackwhip and dragged me down to see my parents. 

 

He stopped on the way to borrow All Might's credit card and got a thing from Nezu that makes a soundproof bubble and some kind of emergency transport pass thing and then we all left and went to a fancy dinner. 

 

I protested that I hadn't got any nice clothes so we stopped and my mom and I got to pick out some evening gowns and dad helped Izu pick out a nice button up, and then we rode the train out to one of the suburbs and All Might had called ahead at a fancy steakhouse he used to visit a lot and they let us in! 

 

We got the nicest table with a view from this balcony overlooking the city and we talked. Izuku explained everything kind of vaguely up to the final showdown, and then we told mom and dad. 

 

They were shocked, very worried, but they always worry about me. When we told them about nearly dying my mom just about fainted. 

 

They have a lot of questions. We answered some, but some of them we kinda fudged it a little, honestly. 

 

It was really good food but I don't think that'll be what I remember about this dinner. I'll remember Izuku taking my hand and facing the future together, just like he always does. Just like we always will. 



Day 10:

 

Principal Nezu told us today that we've automatically been moved up to class 2-A, for when they get around to having school again. School, you know, what we are supposed to be doing. 

 

Oh, and Ibara finally found out I'm a vampire and started getting a look in her eye. Tokage thought it was "fucking rad, be that bloody boss bitch you were always meant to be" and Yui seems jealous. We're setting up some inter-class sparring under Vlad King (huh, I still haven't talked to him) and All Might to let off some steam. Deku vs Class B is the starting round. 1 vs 20. It'll be a wipeout.



Day 12: 

 

Ibara will not be a problem anymore. Weirdly, the rest of the class has adopted us as mascots as like the "power couple" or something. 

 

Deku kickin all their asses was the hottest thing I've ever seen 



Day 18: 

 

Izuku and I were experimenting with different veins to feed from, and turns out the inner thigh is a very good choice for both of us. I'm honestly starting to get used to the idea that I will need to do this every day forever. I still like eating real food too, but it's really just for the flavors.

 

New magic power: I can sense people's auras.

 

I think its kinda like a magic field potential thing. Deku's absolutely nuts, a whole rainbow brighter than the sun. Other people with strong spirits are bright, like Todoroki, Tsu, even Bakugo. All Might is kind of a translucent rainbow, probably a One For All Thing.

 

Mine is inverted. It's black and gray, tinged with red. Jirou's is violet. I saw her in the hospital today. 

 

She's going to have a rough time. 

 

Because her injury was a self-inflicted magical wound, it'll take some magical healing to fix it. That's our best guess anyway.

 

Kami, I wish Momo was here to explain things. 

 

With her "missing", her parents fled the country or something. We haven't been able to find them, which means they probably started a new life somewhere else. Todoroki told me some things about her, how she lived and died the first time, some of what she explained. I get the feeling he was taking it slow with her, so he didn't push. 

 

I wish he had. I need to know more. Are there rules? Am I breaking them?

 

I've managed to go almost three weeks without a murderous rampage, so that's a good start I guess.



Day 25:

 

Aizawa-sensei came to see the class today back at the dorms. He has some really bad injuries and a prosthetic leg now. He can't really use his quirk anymore. He was honestly not the best teacher ever (and he was sometimes really mean to Deku!) but as a Hero, he was incredible. He still has a lot to teach us, I think. 

 

Journal, it's coming up on one month since I changed.

 

It's like a world I never noticed is coming into focus. I met a djinn yesterday, I think. I've been reading up on other "mythological" beings. She fit all the signs but ran away from me when I tried to say hello.

 

I talked to Aizawa-sensei about it and he says he thinks he knew a vampire once. A vigilante. Nobody else knows anything, or if they do they aren't talking. 

 

Kamakiri got in a fight with some punk today on patrol outside in the city and I swooped in and restrained the girl. She had a crazy quirk that made her body really slippery so she could just glide around in her bare feet, it honestly looked super fun. 

 

I looked her in the eyes and shouted "stop running away!"

 

And she did.

 

New magic power: compulsion?



Day 42: 

 

Found Himiko Toga's body today. 



Day 59:

 

Journal, it looks like Jirou might be recovering! We went to go see her today and get everything ready for her move back to the dorms. She misses us all, I know. 

 

She's been doing PT and Principal Nezu paid for some magic healer he found to come help her, but the guy said the damage was very severe and it might take a couple of years for her to walk again. Until then, she has the best damn wheelchair money can buy. And it has an awesome stereo system too, because of course!



Day 81:

Got a letter from Momo's family today. It was in a deposit box and they had left a time-delay message for Nezu. He sent me to get it and it was helpful, but still a little mysterious. I wonder if that's a vampire thing or if that's a " we're like 200 years old and just think everybody should be as smart as us, haha you dumb humans are so silly " thing.

 

So: I am part of a very exclusive Line. Momo's actually the boss of it, which means as her progeny I'm the temporary boss. I think.

 

I do have many magic powers which will present themselves in the fullness of time. They're a little different for every vampire. Interestingly, they don't know a lot about how quirks interact with them, because vampires are super rare here.

 

The reason vampires are super rare is because we're kind of in charge of the supernatural-human relations. The people upstairs don't want to muddy the waters or upset the cart, so the same 5 or 6 vampires retain working relationships with the relevant governmental organizations and schools and stuff. Momo was to be UA's go-to representative, although she was the first vampire to ever attend. Nezu still won't tell me how much he knew.

 

They also gave me full access to Momo's accounts. Since I'm her "progeny" I'm officially in charge of looking after things until she's back. She set aside a large fund for me and my family.

 

A hundred years worth of interest adds up.

 

GOtta go, Kaminari's about to fry the 



Day 82:

 

Hello journal, here on my new laptop. Thank Dracula for Google Drive. Hmmm, nah, not gonna keep saying that. Just trying to keep my spirits up.

 

Will Google Drive still work 100 years from now? Will I have to keep moving journals over from platform to platform for eternity? I mean, these are going to get really long if I live for hundreds of years, right? Maybe I'll stop doing them.

 

Zuzu says don't stop doing them, if we have to live forever we don't want to ever forget where we came from and the people we loved.

 

They're all going to die. I know that, in my head. I've seen people die, I've lost family members and stuff but… I have spent three months trying not to think about who will be the first classmate to die in the line of duty. 

 

Not funny Zuzu. (He said "you were, but you got better!")

 

I mean the first one to be gone. Permanently.

 

Who goes first, Mom or Dad?

 

Will they live to see us have grandchildren, if we can? Maybe we'll adopt. 

 

And then have to watch the child grow past us, and get old, and when their grandchildren are old we'll still be here.



Day 100:

 

Another time-delay message. Momo will return in exactly 500 days from her discorporation, so that's 400 more to go. Shouto is overjoyed! He was starting to go nuts wondering about it. 

 

Her new body will appear in the exact place she was in last. So we'll have to make sure that space is clear. 

 

Also we were not supposed to tell everyone in the class about vampires. 

 

Oops!



Day 106:

 

Izuku had to go away on a mission doing something really important, and he made me promise to stay behind. 

 

I need blood. 

 

I thought I would be fine with a supply he left me in Recovery Girl's fridge, but I accidentally overdid it in training and burned through everything he left me.

 

Time to go ask for volunteers!

 

Update: ok, went smoother than expected. I asked the girls and Toru volunteered. It all went very smoothly, and there wasn't much of a mess! She seemed like she was OK through the whole thing, but licking her bite marks afterwards to help them heal was a bit awkward.



Day 109:

 

I miss Zuzu. 



Day 110:

 

He's back! He better not have gotten hurt. If he did, I'll kill him!



Day 112:

 

Note to self: drinking the blood of your fiance is SO much better than just your boyfriend.



Day 151:

 

End of term exams. That asshole Aizawa-sensei put me up against Vlad King and Present Mic, trying to completely overwhelm my vampire-heightened senses and it almost worked. 

 

Until my quirk evolved! Betcha didn't see that coming, didya Eraser?!

 

Well fry my rice and call me a shrimp, you did. You cocksucker. Zuzu is laughing at me :C It's not fair!



Day 187:

 

Tried on my wedding dress today.

 

!!!!!!!!!!

 

Let's try that again, I TRIED ON MY WEDDING DRESS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS SO PRETTY

 

Zuzu said "not as pretty as you, hot stuff" LMAO he tries so hard and he's so cheesy and then he'll just blurt out stuff like "In a thousand years I'll still love to wake up and see your face every day" and I just melt. 

 

Journal, close your eyes. Gonna go see how he likes my new lingerie set I got today too ;)

 

Update: need another new lingerie set and also Blackwhip is really driven by emotions. Good thing we're both immortal because whooooooooo baby. The dorm room, however, is not indestructible and I really hope we don't have to pay for repairs.

 

~~Now I know the answer to could we do it in zero-G: YES YES YES ~~

 

Update part 2: YES YES. FIVE YESSES JOURNAL HOW DID I GET SO LUCKY



Day 188:

 

Mina and Shouji both gave me funny looks today at breakfast and both ordered noise-cancelling headphones for rush delivery. Kaminari and Kirishima both gave Deku high-fives as soon as we walked down to breakfast together.

 

I think we might have been loud.

 

Update: Cementoss fixed the walls and a bowl of condoms magically appeared on the table downstairs. Funny, I swear it used to be full but ever since Tsu and Tokoyami went down to "grab a midnight snack" it's not all the way filled anymore.

 

I don't blame him. I caught Tsu using her tongue once…. Well, journal, that stays between me and Kami.



Day 249:

VAMPIRE PERIODS SUUUUUCK BAAAALLLLLLS 

 

Once a year but it's a WHOLE MONTH LONG AND I CANT EVEN GET PREGNANT WHY DO I STILL HAVE THESE



Day 301: 

 

End of Second year classes.

 

Class 2-A is officially moving up to 3-A.

 

I miss Momo. I miss having a normal life.

I miss when I thought the best thing I could do with my life was make a lot of money to help my parents. That's not a problem anymore, since Momo gave me access to all her stuff, but I can't help but wonder if none of this had happened, if I was still a normal hero student, what would it be like?

 

Would I be with Zuzu? I knew I had a crush on him from the first day we met. But if I didn't now about OFA, and AFO, and the remains of the League weren't out to get him, what would it be like?



Day 319:

 

All For One was executed today. "So ends the cycle of violence", made possible only with gunshots and blood. Shigaraki is still "alive" but his brainwaves are blank. Deku goes to see him just to be sure. He's still upset at how everything turned out.

 

I'm not.



Day 321:

 

All Might is sick. He had to go to the hospital and it was really close. A blood clot, they said. It might have killed him if Deku hadn't used one of his quirks to get him there so fast. He was a mess. Deku, I mean. My Zuzu didn't have much of a father figure growing up, from what he said. 

 

Miss Inko was also quite upset, but she kept it together. Probably as much for Zuzu's sake as for her own.

 

Now I know how close they really were, it makes total sense how much of a teacher's pet he was in the beginning. 



Day 353:

 

A little girl stopped me on the street today and asked if I'm the Vampire Hero.

 

I told her yes, I am. The official story is that I always had a vampire mutation as part of my quirk, I just kept it hidden because people would be scared, but now I'm open about it because I don't want people to have to ever go through what Himiko Toga did.

 

Anyone who knew me as a kid knows that's BS but the power of propaganda is amazing. Soon, Nezu will have them inventing reasons why they never noticed!

 

So this girl showed off her fangs and they were so cute! And I showed her mine and she loved them! Here, we took a selfie together! 

 

(vampiretwinsies.jpg)

 

Rule-chan was there too and she said later she's jealous, she always wanted sharp teeth and a boyfriend who likes being bitten. I told her we're not taking requests.

 

Day 370:

 

The wedding is in 100 days. 

 

MY wedding! To get married to Izuku Midoriya, the greatest Hero in the world! 

 

We'll both be old enough and nobody can stop us even if they wanted to. I'd like to see them try.

 

My mom and dad are so excited! They were apprehensive about their baby girl getting married so young, but when I told them what Izuku has been through to save me, they realized exactly how much getting in the way of this would be a bad idea.



Day 411:

 

Jirou got up and walked today! She had to channel her magic into her legs to keep them up, and she can only do it for a few minutes. I wish I could lend her some of mine, since I seem to have it overflowing sometimes.

 

Do I compel Iida to help with his anxiety? Yes, yes I do. Do I launch sparring partners into the sun? Only sometimes.

 

Working on my Heavy Gravity is still pretty exhausting. A full day's training needs about 15oz of Izuku's blood to fuel, and over 30oz of anyone else's. I finally tried Iida's yesterday, since he felt so bad about not donating before. (Tastes like citrus but he did just drink some OJ right before)

 

Truth is, I haven't asked him, because of Stain. The Hero Killer is still around, still sitting in a cell. I asked if Iida has ever gone to see him.

 

He said no, he wants to improve himself and be the best man he can be, and he doesn't feel "that would be conducive to his personal growth."

 

Tsu agreed to be the maid of honor, and we got the bridesmaid dresses picked out. Eri is the ringbearer, of course, because she was scared to be the flower girl. She didn't want to hurt the flowers!

 

Izuku asked Iida to be his best man, and what a bachelor party that's gonna be. Probably involving spreadsheets and slides, graphs and studies.

 

(Actually, I think he mentioned racing go-karts and doing laser tag and axe throwing and going fishing. A little excitement, a little relaxation. It sounds like an amazing day!)

 

Aizawa-sensei is pulling his hair out at letting the girls go out together, much less all the guys. Too bad sensei!

 

Day 451:

 

Today, I failed to save a life.

 

The thought crossed my mind: maybe I could turn them.

 

But I didn't.

 

Day 469: 

Day 470:

 

Journal, next time you are opened, it will be Mrs. Ochako Midoriya writing in you.

 

The party was amazing! Tsu absolutely crushed it and all the girls from 3-B came too, and turns out Kendo is actually an incredible pole dancer! Who knew?

 

The boys Tsu hired to come "entertain" found out exactly who they were entertaining and some stepped up and gave us a show and some wilted. If you can't stand the fire, get out of the oven! 

 

I didn't partake, personally, but it was so funny to watch the other girls go after them! Toru was a little ditzy and kept "stumbling" hoping to get one dude to catch her, but she forgot he couldn't see her! 

 

The party wound down after midnight, so today is technically the day! 

 

I can't wait to see his reaction. I'm gonna cry so much



Day 475:

 

Sorry, journal, been busy with my new husband ;)

(っ^‿^)っ  (㇏(•̀ᵥᵥ•́)ノ)  (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

 

I cried, he cried, we all cried. It was beautiful! I almost left a hair tie on my wrist the whole time but Mina grabbed me right before I walked down the aisle and got it off!

 

Here's all the pictures and videos for later

 

[wedding album]



Day 499:

I can feel the magic swirling around. She'll be here soon. Shouto says he can feel it too. Izuku is waiting to rush us all to wherever she needs to go. Maybe the hospital, maybe the dorms, maybe someplace else.

 

I assisted Shouto in donating last week so he has a chance to recover before she appears, just in case she needs a healthy supply. I have 4 bags in a cooler on standby. 

 

We're as ready as we can be. No word from her parents yet.

 

Journal, gotta go, something's happening. I think she might be here!











Day 4,001:

 

Toshi and Zoya turned 1 year old today. They're so beautiful; the best thing I've ever done was giving them life. 

 

Izuku is asleep with both of them in the bedroom while I look at the journals from when I first changed. 

 

Over a decade ago now, since I became what I am. 

 

Before our wedding, before we figured out how to have kids, before everything that we've become as adults. 

 

We even look adult now, finally. I thought I was going to be 17 for all time, but it's more like I settled on 22. It took me years but I accepted that those few extra kilos I was always wanting to lose will be there forever. Luckily, I have a husband who likes a little something to grab onto ;)

 

Someday, they'll read these and I'll cringe at how childish I was. 

 

They'll see all the funny pictures Toru and Mina and I took, they'll listen to Kyoka's albums, see Uncle Kacchan with Aunt Kendo and ask him to make big sparks! 

 

Someday, they'll understand what happened to their mom and dad. 

 

Someday, they'll ask why we call Momo their grandma and she blushes. 

 

Aunt Tsu is going to teach them to swim, and we'll visit Uncle Tenya's grave and tell them how brave he was.

 

Someday, they'll grow up. But they'll always be my little ones.

 

I hear them waking up now, journal. I'll talk to you later. Duty calls!
