Nomu Debriefing/Collab Post with BlackMaiden and Digmata
@Letter Bee@Gerlando@Digmata@BlackMaiden
For a moment, Akira just stood there completely confused by the turn of the events. He never saw Himekishi flustered but seeing that side of hers, reminds her that there's a girl beneath the ever serious knight she strives to be.
Not that he had time to dwell on it, as Mei Kaku immediately called him and Amaya at a dinner at some fancy restaurant. The months of working with Kaku however makes it clear to him that she means business and considering the recent news, he ought to give her his ears.
At the bare minimum, she deserves that much.
“Ok, just let me change my clothes. It sounds like a very high class restaurant after all.”Mei was relieved when Himekishi bailed, not because of Akira but simply out of Prefect Duties. She can't bear the thought of having to sanction someone directly from her own class, her heart skipped a beat yet know not the full reason. To resist, is to demand and so Mei asserted.
“That won't be necessary, my Auntie just purchased the right fits for the occasion. Rin baa-chan sure was nagging. Please configure your Hawkspads into ‘Wrist Mode’, I will send you the blueprints.” Mei assumed if 1B Students were even aware about the full potential and other capabilities of their Hawkspads.
Completely puzzled at Mei’s words, Akira decided to follow her. Wrist Mode was that again, oh there it is. Watching the Hawkspad transform suddenly reminds him that this is the Eiruu Academy, they don’t know how to cut corners.
–System On–
| Wrist Mode |
Analyzing components, initializing merger.
Mei already had hers in said mode, with Akira rekindling Wrist Mode, which was a thing taught during the orientation but barely explored.
Demonstration has always been Mei's best expertise.
–System On–
| Palm Mode |
Analyzing components, restructuring.
“This is Palm Mode, as you can see in this spatial computation, I have downloaded the outfit I wanted. 5D Printing & Scanning is coded to your biometrics, manipulating synchronicity…basically, we can control fiber particles in a compressed zone in a flash, like that Sailor Girl Anime.” Mei showed Akira the transformation.
A flash of light and space distortion took place and in a split second, Mei had changed into her preferred outfit, her black dress.
“It seems that you only have School & PE Uniform in your downloads, I will have to wormdrop what Auntie Rin purchased, Amaya will do the same.”Akira lets his jaw drop as she finds Mei doing an honest to god in her own words ‘magical girl transformation’, can the Hawkspad do that? How come no one told him that they can do that? How much did they miss after that fiasco of six teachers they suffered.
He looked at the selection then realized one thing.
“That’s my hero costume, did you pay my broke partner to give you the blueprints without my knowledge?”he asked as he clicked on the choice.
“But this should be good enough.” If there is one thing he liked about this costume, it is that he can also use it for formal events.
Mei rolled her eyes.
“I didn't, my Aunt did.” She also flexed her skill with her usage of the Hawkspad and tapped on vending mode, where she summoned her bottle of water out of thin air.
“There are other features, you'd learn but this will be enough for now. It's also clear to me now that you've missed six months of 5D Spatial Conversion 101, no wonder my class bullied yours, you're all dressing up primitively. I dress to kill.” She teased Akira in a deadpan manner.
Mei changed into her Hero Costume along with her two pistols, summoned. Even her hair changed along with the transformation, it's like she got one of those Salon hairdo.
“Yes, yes tell that to the five stooges. They peeked around and found out.” he parried with his tongue in jest as they began making their way once to the restaurant. Hopefully it won’t be a long night, he just recently got out of the infirmary after all.[One Journey Later]
Let it be known, rich people need to learn how to productively spend money.
He took a seat on the definitely expensive chair as they made their orders with food he couldn’t recognize (forcing him to just go along with what Mei ordered), as they waited however they had ample time for the conversation.
“So you called us here for a reason, may we now ask it?”Mei sat in the revolving round table and next to them was a food stream, where food will be sliding down their way.
At the same time, Rin sat next to Mei.
“A banquet of invitation. A collaboration with the big three hero agencies whose embers remain vibrant. Oh, and a High End Nomu is on the loose. Take it as a last minute request from Endeavor, Hawks & Best Jeanist before their retirement, but then again I'm no longer your Prefect, I have no business informing you further, at least that's what I'll say.” The request seemed skeptical, the former big three wouldn't request students, even if they're adults by right, university students to take on such a task. However, this was no different from the last time, the legendary Midnight Class involving Deku, Dynamite & Icyhot along with their peers, were in high demand and treated as child soldiers during the PLF War. Still, Rin is many things but she isn't a liar, she showed a recording conference as proof.
That's precisely the point.
By rite of passage, they are considered adults and college heroes above all, their job just fits like a glove for their age, so that no underage heroes have to suffer for the burden of adults.
“Now, there as to why you're all here. There had been reports, swept under the rug by the local media, about this new breed of Nomu, Nemesis. A production that's illegally conducted by Shibuya's Crime Boss, Ryukazuki Keyaru.”For a while there could only be silence in the room, Akira was very familiar with the dangers of dealing with Nomu’s especially when he saw the aftermath at their work with Streetlight Agency. Akira took a deep breath and asked a question.
“So to summarize, there is someone out there mass producing Nomus and a High-End one is on the loose, so what do you want me to do?” he asked, not because he is just a pauper compared to the people around him.
“Because as you can see there are two problems, one is immediate and the other long term problem.”Rin smirked, it reminded her of the earlier incident, no different from Mia Mathers, one who questioned a lot, which she hated but then again, 1B is behind after all.
“The League of Villains are on the verge of rekindling their divided empires, that is the long term problem and the immediate one is wherever this Nomu is at. This is clearly an Eirei Polytechnic Operative feat. Case with the top three agencies, they're our Founders after all. This has nothing to do with prestige. Have you forgotten Eirei's code?” . Rin threw back the question.
To further elaborate.
“As to why we're here in this fancy place, don't you have decency to pay homage to our heroic ancestors, we're merely emulating the Bushido Code, savor your meal before you die, it might just be your last. We're Hinoan first before Heroes, have some patriotism. Endeavor, Hawks and Best Jeanist didn't retire first without considering quality Heroes, truth be told that there is still incompetence in our saturated celebrity hero society.” After listening to Rin’s rant, the white haired hero student simply took a sip of the soup, a way to buy time for his words to take shape.
“Himura-senpai, I believe that we have a misunderstanding, one that is probably similar to what happened at the classroom.” he started as he looked at his reflection, there was a small smile on his face.
“But let’s answer your questions first.”“Contrary to your expectations, I do know our school motto. It is the Japanese term ‘Kokoro Moyase’ which directly translates to ‘Set Your Heart Ablaze’ . It was quite amazing how it fits the school like a glove to be honest.” The white haired man laughed a little before continuing.
“Second, I do consider myself a hero before Hinoan, I don’t care about the flag I serve, just the people I can help.”And thus he stared at Rin, not with eyes of shame or fear but with conviction and impatience.
“So when I asked the words ‘what do you want me to do?’ It is not out of helplessness that there is nothing I can do, it is out of genuine desire to cut all of this ceremony and fancy jargon that serves as red tape to our heroic task. So let me ask again…”“...in no uncertain terms, what do you want me to do about it?
Do you need my spear for the upcoming battle, do you need me to rally my class as your cavalry or do you need me to charge and hunt that Nomu in a desperate attempt to quell its rampage? Please tell me because there is no way the two of you had no plan after all of this ceremony and talk about a final meal.” He answered as the ball was returned to Mei’s and Rin’s court.
Mei was quite concerned but so far there was no sign of personality splitting apart, all was well. She's glad that there's no one falling for her Aunt Rin’s manipulation tactics and can tell that she's fuming behind her thick skull. All she could do was watch and wait.
“You really are an idealist much like All Might yet the Blackhawks certainly would indulge with your resolute work ethic.” Rin smiled sarcastically, she hated that in a time like this, there are those that are still rekindling the will of All Might.
Why is there no one willing to embrace the dark side of heroism, why can't they be pragmatic? She wondered.
“We have a common goal. Align your class to the cavalry and you begrudgingly by my side, will further deal with the Eight Bullets. It seems that fear won't be a driving force to a heroic victory, perhaps our beliefs are different but together, I am willing to see your worldview and perhaps, you, mine and wonder about the greater good that could be done.”Rin didn't want to drag the conversation further with her fear tactics, the kid was clearly incorruptible but in time, he'll break, and she'll take the chance to push her way about heroics, reaping the seed she has sowed.
“I'm sure you've already heard of the Blackhawks, are there any clarifications to come clean?” “A classmate of mine has an unflattering view of that subsection of the heroes, a bunch of thugs whose legality is ordained by nothing but a paper that says so. How they still exist is a question of mystery to be honest. Is there a particular reason we're talking about this?” Akira answered as he drank the nearby tea, it wasn’t coffee but who cares.
“Oh those guys, they're just lunatic fanatics like those of the Hero Killer Stain, anyone can misjudge a book by its cover without knowing the full context as anyone can cosplay and pretend to be part of such a group.” Rin drank her tea as well.
“Agree to disagree or refute what I'm about to say. You said you care not about the flag and it means you'll be willing to do anything as a Hero. Then welcome to the Blackhawks, I don't ask for your trust and allegiance but as a business partner, allow me to shed light as its leader, you'll know soon enough. “ Once again, Rin is no liar, she made sense of what the state of the nation is currently and is aware that her organization’s name has been tainted all because of happy trigger people.
“Light cannot exist without Darkness, neither cannot stand alone. Goodness can come in different forms. Oh well, what about you Amaya? What do you have to say…”“Huh, getting the interest of the secretive leader of the Blackhawks is definitely not on my bingo card.” Akira jested as he took a breath of air.
“I agree with your statement about Darkness however.” he said he saw the reflection of his orphan self in Rin’s eyes.
“It’s just we need to change the definition of darkness in my opinion, it wasn’t an all consuming void where the light will never escape nor a rampaging beast used as a final resort. It should be a force wielded in discretion and accountability, too much light can after all blind you.” he smiled a little at his words.
“I guess the bottom line is, whatever you do you must be willing to pay the consequences.”Amaya watched the whirlwind of the scene before her. Of the princess knight herself rushing off in such a hurry within moments of her niece Mei coming into the room. She folded her arms , allowing her hands to hold the opposite elbow as she followed after them without fuss. She hasn’t been around to tend to matters or knowings so this was the best opportunity to get back in the loop.
She adjusted the Hawkspad on her wrist following Mei's instruction as she flipped through the menus will ease allowing her own “transformation” change her clothing to fit the need.
“I will let Aunty Rin know when she is in a much better state of being” Amaya spoke in acknowledgement as she followed them out to their sudden dinner reservation.
She followed with silent ease moving to their destination listening to the interaction between Akira and mei. She sat quietly closing her eyes as she rested her hands in her lap taking in all the information between their flirting and teasing. It was more one sided but it was easy to see.
“You cannot have light without shadows as even the purest of intentions have a dark view to those who don’t see the benefits.” She spoke in cold response.
“What is it that I seek from this interaction? Nomus are beings made from disgusting surgeries of the inhumane side with quirks that just can’t correspond with their make up do to incomplete synchronization. Though one being free and not taken out is worrisome given the timing of the top three head’s retiring. You can quit beating around the bush and get to the true intention at hand.“ Amaya spoke in soft but cold acknowledgement.
Suddenly...
A woman screamed at the sight of the corpse, the businessman that Spectra killed earlier, the man turned into a High End Nomu.
"Ke-Lord..Keyaru...e-eat...humans....Quirk Factors... ascension..."Le'Nombril spiraled into panic as the alarms sounded.
Rin smirked, it was the perfect timing.
"Mei, send Yusuke the reports, we can't have them be chilling in the Executive Top for so long. This must be our lucky day, Achilles! In the background, Hawks Agency Heroes are working on the evacuation.
"W-Will eat humans... Quirkfuls, Quirk Factors....Become -Rin breathes, freezes the Nomu in place... continuously as frosty blizzard turns it into an icy sculpture but not for long.
"Flashfreeze Howl: Icy Breath!However, the Nomu broke out of the icy stampede and ran outside.
It displayed high intelligence, Rin came to the conclusion that it can talk and think, it is a High End Nomu.
