37 Life Or Death Or Smash
'Oi, she isn't dead now.. Is she? It says that she can regenerate no matter what. Did I kill her?'
Izuku looked at her lifeless body and couldn't help but wonder.
"Toga-san.. You dropped your plate.. Are you okay?" Izuku asked, but there was no response.
He put his hand on her neck to see whether she still had a pulse. Her heart was still beating which is good. Is she conscious? Let me try something.
"Toga-san, I have more desserts, would you like some?" Izuku asked.

'Just as I thought. She reacts to food. But her muscles are paralyzed so she can't actually talk or eat properly. At least I know she is still alive.'
'Now, what do I do? Do I call All Might to take her and lock her up, or do I just leave her here for now?' Izuku thought.
After a minute of thinking, Izuku took out a blanket from his inventory and put her on it, so that she wouldn't have to lie on the ground.
'I will just leave her like that for a moment. Now for serious business, I need to train my quirks. I don't have much time left.'
"Come out! Yūrei!" Izuku shouted, and the black giant, woke up from its slumber.
'That's good. I can call him out on the first try now. Although I never saw this thing get pummeled, I still need to know what the cooldown is between each summoning.
"Yūrei, disappear, Yūrei! Appear..."
Ghost immediately disappeared and reappeared again.
'Looks like it doesn't have a time limit.. Now.. How many times can I summon him in succession?'
Izuku tried numerous things with the ghost before his head started to hurt him really badly.
Izuku held his head and said, "Looks like 8 times is my limit. I better stop for the time being."
He looked at the lying Himiko and saw a movement.
"Toga-san? Can you speak?" Izuku asked.
"Sure! I can! What up Ezreal?" Himiko asked.
"Oi.. That's not even close. Is my name that hard to pronounce?" Izuku face-palmed himself.
Himiko nodded and said, "It's difficult to remember, and saying it is even harder."
'Seriously? It's hard for her? I've heard worse names than that..' Izuku thought.
"Well.. Anyway.. Can you move?" Izuku asked.
"I am not sure, Oh.. I can" Himiko slowly stood up and cracked her bones.
'I see.. Good thing I didn't act. After consuming the poison, she regenerated back to normal in only 10 minutes. There is no way All Might would make it in time.' Izuku mentally sighed.
Himiko watched his face with a cute expression and said, "Thank you for the food! It was really tasty! I will come again tomorrow!"
"Hm.. You are leaving that soon? It's only 10 am."
"Yeah.. I have something to do.. Bye.."
Izuku could feel something was wrong with her.
'Is she experiencing some kind of side effects from the drugs?' Izuku wondered as he silently followed her.
'I am pretty sure something is happening to her.' Izuku thought.
After a few minutes of following her, she dropped on the ground yet again.
'Shit!'
Izuku rushed towards her to check her condition. She wasn't breathing anymore.
'Damn.. Is it possible that the Batrachotoxin actually worked? No.. This is something different.' Izuku observed her body and concluded that the poison had nothing to do with her falling on the ground.
"Izuku.."
Izuku heard a faint voice coming from Himiko.
'She is already breathing.. Wait.. She called me by my name.. Something is wrong.' Izuku was alarmed.
"Y-Yeah? Are you okay?" Izuku asked.
Himiko grinned and replied, "Gotcha!"
Himiko pulled out a large knife from her clothes and stabbed Izuku into his chest.
"Argh! What the hell?!" Izuku screamed in pain and panic.
He fell on his back as Himiko pushed the knife deeper into his chest.
"S-Stop..it.." Izuku struggled with breathing as a giant knife in his chest didn't allow him to.
"Izuku.. Izuku.. You were enjoying yourself as well.. We are the same! So you have to understand.. Besides... I don't have much time left, I am sorry."
"W-What are you talking about? H-How are we similar?! You are just a pure murderer!" Izuku shouted while trying to gain control of the knife but to no avail.
'I need to do something... Or else I will really die.' Izuku thought.
"Yūrei" Izuku shouted but nothing happened. The Ghost didn't appear.
'Is it possible that summoning it 8 times per day is my limit?! How unlucky can i get?!'
"You enjoyed it, didn't you? I saw the grin on your face when I ate those poisoned desserts. I really loved the look on your face so I didn't kill you immediately. After eating so much poison, my body actually couldn't regenerate fast enough so I quickly ran away, but to think that you would follow me... Such a golden opportunity!" Himiko licked her lips.
'She saw through me from the beginning! I was played!'
"N-No.. You are wrong! I-I am not like you! I will be a hero! I just figured out you were a villain and I tried some things! I used poison to restrain you!" Izuku protested.
"To restrain me? How cute. I could smell the deadly poison in your bag from miles away. Actually, I can pinpoint the exact location where you brought it from. But wow... There are so many poisons gathered in one place." Himiko sniffed the air and smiled.
'Shit! If I die here, she will go to my mom!'
"Although I don't want to kill you, my vampire instincts are kicking in and I can't help but eat a snack. It's really sad.. I finally met someone similar and I have to eat him. I am gonna suck you dry." Himiko showed off her pair of white fangs.
'Damn it! I already lost so much blood from being stabbed. If she takes 2 liters of blood from me I am definitely dead. Think.. Think..'
"W-We are similar, right? How about you let me live, and I will bring you enough blood. How does that sound?"
If fighting won't work, then negotiation is the only option.
"Hmm. That won't do Izuku~ The blood has to be warm, it has to be from a human, and It has to be the same type or else I won't be able to calm down, besides, you sped up my hunger because my body had to regenerate from the constant abuse. Now now, just let me kill you. It will be over in a minute." Himiko replied.
He watched on, as she got closer while preparing to taste him.
'There is still one last option. I didn't want to do this, but it's my only hope.'
"What if I told you, that I can remove your curse?" Izuku said.
Himiko stopped moving and looked at him with a hope in her eyes. "Can you really remove it?"
Izuku stood up from the ground and pulled the knife out of his chest.
"Yes. You just need to.. Have...s-sex with me.." Izuku blushed.
Himiko was looking at him, like she heard the biggest joke ever.
She went forward and bit him into his neck.
"Argh"
