Chapter 7: A little promise
Six in the evening at Choppu Sodai Ginza, I and mom arrive thirty minutes ahead of the time just to also to see the arrival of another car that looks exactly like the one we are riding, only that ours are white and theirs are black. From what I know, my mom and the family she's going to meet reserve the place so I assume that they are the people we are going to meet.
"Izuku, we are going to meet with the Yaoyorozu Family, the owner of one of the largest conglomerate. They also own thirty-three training centers and fitness centers where many pro-heroes frequently go.", mom said giving me an introduction to the Yoayorozu Family.
There are two entrances to the restaurant so we still didn't meet and follow the stone path where the professional-looking butlers led us to. The combination of trees, flowers, and lights around the path give the sceneries a paradise-like vibe. The restaurant is located at a small hill which makes it look more elegant. The lights around make the place looks like it is still daytime
"Mrs. Midoriya, please!", the butler motioned for us to enter while giving a 45-degree bow.
We entered the restaurant at the same time the Yaoyorozu family entered the other entrance. Mom already informed me that the Yaoyorozu family have a daughter which is about the same age as me but she looks just like me, more developed than our actual age. She is beautiful and if I had not known I think she looks like about 4 years older than her actual age, even where a woman should be developing already shows its signs in her. As we near each other mom greets them and hinted me to greet them too.
"Greetings, Mr. and Mrs. Yaoyorozu and to young miss. I am Izuku Midoriya. Nice to meet you!" I said smiling at them and giving a slight bow.
"Uhmm. Nice to meet you Aunty Inko, and Izuku. I am Momo Yaoyorozu." the girl said while also giving a slight bow.
We then proceed to the table and talk about what we usually do and some kids stuff. It seems Momo and I had a lot of similarities being at the top spot of our respective schools. Her school is the top school in Aichi Prefecture and I'm also studying in the top school in Shizuoka Prefecture. She often goes in the contest and we will be able to compete against each other next month since I and Kacchan is also part of the contest after winning in Prefecture Level. We both excel in academics and sports. She trains in staff arts when she's four almost the same time I started my training. She loves to be a hero and analyzing her opponents, also same as me though I always overdid in analyzing. We still have many similarities so we got more comfortable talking with one another.
After 10 minutes a lady informed our parents about the meal. "Good day, ma'ams and sires, this is ...," introducing us the entree and the rest of the course.
I looked curiously at the abundant amount of meal and asked mom if she asked them to make the portions larger but I think this is too much.
"Mom! did you...? I think it is too much," I asked her. Mom only replied with a smile.
I also saw Momo aking her mom about the amount of food.
10 minutes later... I now knew why our moms only smiled. Both I and Momo almost share the same amount of appetite. Then I found out that our parents already asked for a large portion of each meal considering our quirks. I am now curious at what her quirk is.
10 minutes more and our parents decided to proceed to their main agendas while I and Momo went outside the restaurant to play and talk. Momo was about 10 cm shorter than me, a lot taller compared to other girls her age. I and Momo decided to talk about our quirks first.
"Midoriya-kun, does your quirk also requires you to eat a lot?", she asked.
"Yes, and by the way, you can just call me Izuku. How about you? What's your quirk?", I said.
Momo blushed a bit and hurried said, "The-then you can just call me Momo." she paused. Then she looks down and continues, "My quirk is called 'Creation' which gives me the ability to create any non-living material from my skin through the molecular manipulation of my fat cells. As long as I understand how things are made of, I can make it." she explained still blushing.
"Ohh! that's cool."I said then I began to speak fast more like mumbling, "You can become a great hero. Your quirk can make you adapt in all kinds of situation and you can also become a great rescue hero. Overall her quirk is very versatile"
Momo laughed at me and I stared at her while smacking my mouth"You're quite smart, Izuku-kun. Thank you for telling me that I can become a great hero, my parents instead want me to just continue our business. They said that it is a dangerous job, but I only want to become a hero. And one of my dreams is to join UA High."
"How amazing!", I looked at her feeling amazed at her dreams though that's another similarity on us.
"Izuku-kun, how about you? What's your quirk.", Momo asked curiously while tilting her head which I find quite cute.
"Uhhhmm. I have three quirks." I said to her while averting my eyes guiltily since I lied with me having 'quirks'.
"Ahhh. What? Three quirks? Is that possible? The-then what are they?", she shouted when she realized that she was shouting and still continued asking a question.
"Uhmm" What should I show to her first? Then I decided to show her a fireball with electricity constantly circling it. "This is my first quirk and I call it 'Thunderfire', it is a combination of fire and thunder emitter quirk though I can do both separately." I then separately form a ball of fire and electricity from each of my hand. "I may have gotten my first quirk from my late father since he has a fire-breathing quirk 'Dragon Breath'", I added.
"That's so cool but you said that it is the first but from my perspective, it is already two quirks." She kindly corrected me.
"Uhhmm I call it as only one quirk because I develop fire manipulation first at four years old and electricity when I turned six, I feel that I can potentially use another element when I master my electricity so I first call it thunder-fire but someday I will change it to elemental" I 'explained' what may be the potential of my 'quirk' is though in reality it is only training and absorbing genetic material of fishes and many aquatic animals that I gain a slight affinity in water and that is with the help of Dekiru's parasites. I already explained that I may potentially gain another element because I'm currently training water manipulation but it is still extremely hard since I still didn't have a copy of hydrokinetic quirk which one of Dekiru's parasites are still copying from two heroes since they didn't buy a customed costume from our company.
I already have some copy of quirks since I and Dekiru receive blood and some skin of the heroes and students in training when we make a material or costume for them. It will take a lot of time to assimilate different quirks to my body so I only assimilated fire and electrically related quirks from my 'Pool of powers'(Dekiru's collection of DNA) to raise my affinity with them. I only do the DNA/Quirk absorption gradually since my body still needs to adapt in the changes each time I absorb a quirk. One example is when I absorbed Endeavor's blood it took me two months to fully assimilate his quirk which gives my fire manipulation and affinity an extremely large boost albeit controlling larger fire and compression of fire becomes relatively harder even now that 3 years have passed after absorbing it.
I snapped back to reality and continue introducing my second 'quirk', "My second quirk is an improved version of my mom's quirk." I talked to her mind while making myself float a little bit.
She looked shocked at first and then became slacked-jawed when she saw me float.
"This is also only one quirk I named this quirk 'Psionic Manifestation'. It is an all-rounder psionic ability I can currently use telekinesis, form imaginary hands, low levitation and telepathy."
"So powerful, you can do a lot of things with that.", she said still shocked at my second 'quirk'
I then proceed to introduce my other 'quirk'. "This is my third quirk," I asked Dekiru to come out and talk to her. Then she saw a cute gooey form (https://www.artstation.com/artwork/8vkan) of Dekiru. Dekiru and I talked about what form he should take in when we are outside and decided for a cute chibi form.
"Hi, I'm Dekiru. My name means I can do anything.", Dekiru proudly said. "Izuku and I are like brothers in one body so just ask him anytime you want to talk to me and..."
"So...so...so cute..." Momo suddenly hugs Dekiru/my arm making me blush.
I cough slightly making her blush and reluctantly released Dekiru.
"So... what can he do?", she said slowly trying to change the mood.
"I can enhance all his ability both physically and his quirks. I can also act as a hero costume or school uniform and all sorts of clothing. Oh, oh, I can also clean his body better than any water and soap", Dekiru said. We talked about what he would tell anyone about his ability by only limiting it to his basic abilities and then making a slight joke in the end.
"Wow! That cute thing, no, I mean Dekiru is so strong." She said still quite excited though she is resisting it.
We then talked about our daily activities and I asked her if I can train in one of their Training Center and if I can ask for them to train me personally at home sometimes. She agreed but I would need to give her a customized costume and twenty percent discount on twelve items every year. I gave her my number and I got hers.
After 20 minutes of playing and joking with Dekiru, I saw from the inside that mom and uncle Yoayorozu shake each other's hand. I then looked at Momo who's currently pinching Dekiru's cheeks.
I asked Dekiru to come for me for a second and while I turned my back I asked Dekiru to create a plushie of himself with a solar-powered communication device that can make a hologram connected to my phone. We already created one of such device in a form of a DBZ scouter for myself and Kacchan since it looks cool so it only took about 15 seconds. Then I turned back to her and handed to Momo the palm-sized Dekiru plushie.
"Here, for you! Take this a token of friendship. I made this myself. if you press the small symbol on its chest three times, it will send me a distress signal that you need help. If you pull the left ring finger, it will try to contact me and then we can talk like in our phone. If you pull the right then we can make a video call. Cool right! This is my version showing my scouter." I explained to her slowly so that she can memorize it.
"Wow! Thank you! A...a...wait, I will also give you something.", she hurried turns back and after two minutes she handed me a Bluish crystal. She looks tired from creating this one. "This is one of the product, mom's research it is an extremely rare crystal that can be used to enhances control of a restraining weapon."
Then our parents walked outside the restaurant near us. I then looked at Momo who also looks at me after seeing our parents.
"Izuku-kun let's promise to do our best in the contest next month, ok? Umm...You also need to promise to go to UA, ok?", she asked cutely while giving me a puppy eyes and sticking out her pinky.
"I promise I will do my best at the contest next month and to attend UA when we turn fifteen.", I extended my pinky finger and lock it to hers making a pinky promise which makes me shy. Then suddenly I felt a small and smooth object touch my cheek. I then realized that Momo kissed me. Ohh my! Ohh my! I got kissed by a beautiful girl I got kissed. My mind is totally blank. My mom shuffled my hair that wakes me up. Then I saw her smirking. Then searched for Momo only to find her already stepping in their car. I hurriedly ran faster than my training and shouted goodbye to her. I waved my arm to her when she waves hers, saying goodbye.
"Ohh, being young!", my mom said with fake tears. Which again wakes me up from my stupor.
