The CEO's Daughter
"It-It's a demon!" A person yelled.
A huge, black mass was taking form while several citizens were running away from it. The black mass began to form as a being with giant black claws and scale-like armor.
"What are we going to do?! None of the heroes Quirks work on them!"
The monster roared at the civilians and thrashed their claws at them destroying several buildings in the process. They were causing chaos all around. Fire all around. Buildings collapsing all over. The sky was red as well. It was as if this was a nightmare, but it was real. None of the heroes were able to do anything to this beast.
"T-That's not a demon! That's the Devil himself!" A hero screamed.
No one ever encountered something like this. None of the heroes were trained for such an occasion where such a beast was able to take on all of their attacks and not be affected at all. They were far too dangerous to handle. The worst part was that the beast didn't even appear to be slowing down.
"Is it? Is it really over?"
The beast continued to wreak havoc until something happened. The silhouette of a muscular person appeared laughing and charged at the black mass.
*Line*
"No. I'll be participating in the UA Entrance Exam. I don't want any measly Recommendation. I don't like handouts. You know that already!"
"I understand that, but you must understand that I'm only doing what's best for you. You don't want to show everybody what you're capable of too soon do you?" Hisashi asked.
I glared at my father for a couple of seconds before sighing.
"Fine. You win. I won't take the Entrance Exam."
"Actually, I changed my mind. I want the boy to take the Entrance Exam."
Both of us turned to see a man walking up to us. He had a smirk on his face.
"The boy has a fiery spirit. I like it. I discussed with my business associates for a while and figured that capturing the boy on film during the Entrance Exam would be good for publicity. We talked to UA about recording the boy and tafter giving a small donation, they gave us the rights to record the lad here during the Entrance Exam. Then, we could release the footage of the boy at the Sports Festival during the Tournament part. Granted it would have to be in snippets so his opponents won't know all of his moves of course."
I raised an eyebrow at the guy with the pompadour.
"And who are you?" I questioned.
"Oh. Pardon my manners! I never introduced myself to you yet. You see, my name is Arufa Yaoyorozu and I've decided to invest my money in you and the AQ industry. It seems like something a lot of individuals would pay top dollar for and working with me, this industry would skyrocket until it's as popular as Apple. Possibly more."
"Hmm. I don't fully trust you, but if it means that we'll be able to get this business off its feet, then I'm all ears."
"Smart kid. My daughter is also going to UA and be part of the Hero Course. As a matter of fact, she's been Recommended. If she were to hang around you, she'd probably grow quite a backbone."
"Oh?"
He nodded.
"Mr. Yaoyorozu, are you absolutely sure you want to see him partake in the Entrance Exam?" Dad asked.
The man nodded.
"I already invested quite a bit of money to this boy, so I'm expecting greatness. That Sludge villain incident was just an appetizer for me. I want more you see. I've been in the brand business for so long that it's gotten boring. You've brought in something new and original. It excites me!"
His body began to change. His skin took on a more diamond like appearance. His hair began to harden and become ruby red. His fingernails became gold. He also became larger now towering over us, but his business suit appeared to stretch with him.
"Ah, yes. I never explained what my Quirk was. Well, essentially, I can turn my body into any of the minerals found in the Earth's crust. It's a pretty powerful Quirk and I could have become a hero with this Quirk, but why bother when you can create your own business and become even richer than you are now with such a Quirk?"
"Interesting." I spoke.
"The downside is that the more of my body I cover up, the weaker it is. So, currently with my body being diamond, I can't be harmed with bullets, but a decently strong muscle augmentation or strength enhancement Quirk could cause it to crack. If it was one part of my body, then it would take one of the top 10 heroes or anyone on par with them to completely shatter the diamonds."
"Why are you telling us all of that?" I inquired.
"Well, it's to help build trust and you'll know not to betray me."
I could feel the bloodlust from Venom.
"Is that a threat?"
"No. Threats are pointless. It's a statement that would become true if you were to ever cross me."
"I'll take your words to mind."
"Smart boy."
Mr. Yaoyorozu transformed back to his normal self with his clothes in tact. He then began to leave with a smile on his face.
"So, about mom." I stated to my father.
"Thanks to Mr. Yaoyorozu's 'small' investment, we were able to get her vitals more stable and we're getting closer to finding a cure to the disease. Don't worry Izuku. Your efforts will not be in vain."
I sighed in relief. Venom's bloodlust was probably one of the only things that helped to distract me from the topic of my mother. I absolutely hated thinking about her because of the state she was in now.
A couple of days later and Mr. Yaoyorozu appeared at the hotel we were staying in, but this time a girl who appeared to be around my age judging by her youthful face and 'developed' figure was there with him. She had a spiky ponytail and onyx eyes. The two shared a couple of similarities so I deduced that they were related at the very least.
"Mr. Yaoyorozu. Pleasure seeing you again. I also see you brought a youthful girl with you." Dad spoke.
"Ah yes. This is my daughter Momo. The one I was talking about before."
This peaked my interest so I jumped off of my bed and went to approach the girl after greeting her father of course.
"Momo. This is the boy I was telling you and your mother about a few days back."
She looked at her father.
"Father, are you sure that you're making a good investment this time around? I mean, I've never even heard of the thought of being able to create Quirks besides Quirk Marriage and even then, it's not like the parents get to choose which Quirk their kids get. It's simply having the chances of having their kid be born with the Quirk they desire increased by selective breeding." Momo questioned her father.
I looked at her with interest.
'Smart one, isn't she?'
I couldn't help but agree with Venom on this part. She seemed to be one of those smart alec people that seemed to know everything and everybody hated them.
"Oh, I assure you Momo. I am making a great investment here. Besides, they know what would happen if they failed to please me with my investment.."
I saw his right hand turn into crystal for a split second. He had a pleasant smile on his face, but I could tell he was a brutal man. A brutal businessman most likely. Made sense. There's a lot of distrust in the business world after all.
The two adults in the room went out to discuss business leaving me and the black haired girl in the room. Alone. Together.
'Are they nuts?' I thought.
'What are you complaining about? Boy meets girl. In a room together. The-'
"Shut up!" I yelled.
"B-But I didn't even say anything." Momo pointed out.
I facepalmed realizing I yelled out loud and sighed.
"Not you." I muttered.
"Who else could you be talking too? We're the only ones in the room?"
"It's my AQ. His name is Venom. It may sound strange, but he speaks to me and is more animalistic in nature."
"You act like I'm supposed to believe that."
"Believe what you want. I don't really care, although I would like to know what your Quirk is."
"Why should I tell you?"
"You don't have to tell me." I waved her off walking over to my bed.
I could feel her glaring at me, but it didn't really faze me. I've been through worse. I just sat on my bed, pulled out my phone, and went on KissAnime to watch some good anime. There was this new anime where a kid who didn't have any superpowers at first is granted with a weapon that can nullify the abilities of most of the other characters. Considering how everyone but that one person has powers from birth in this anime, being able to nullify these powers would be pretty OP if you asked me.
Before I could watch the show though, the girl decided to interrupt my enjoyment.
"If it's true what you say about this "Artificial Quirk" of yours, umm, why don't you show me some of the things you can do?" Momo suggested.
I looked up at her with a smirk.
"Oh? And will you show me what you can do as well? I mean, after all, it's only fair."
"Fine."
I had a complete smile on my face at this point. Maybe she won't be that bad.
A/N: So, for the longest I've been trying to write longer chapters for all of my stories which caused them to come out longer and I've been kind of disappointed with how short some of them are. It's only today I remembered the fact that quality over quantity is what matters. Also, as for the One Piece fans, I have a new story out that's been out for a little over a month. It's called King's Air where Luffy is an Ex-Marine with a devil fruit known as the Kaze Kaze no mi. Finally, I think you guys will enjoy what I have planned in the future with this story. It's definitely going to be a real interesting AU. That I can guarantee. Bionic-TitanX out!
