Faster Than You.

Mugen's Starting Line (Ch.3)

On the way to the Iida Estate, Mugen happened to cross paths with Momo Yaoyorozu, his classmate that was on a team with short grape haired boy from earlier.

"Uh hey, your Yaoyorozu, right? I'm Mugen, but call me Y/n. We're in the same class in U.A." he introduced himself, having not properly before.

"Ah, the fellow who did exceptionally well at today's Faux battle test. I remember you. I'm Momo Yaoyorozu, but call me Momo. I have to inquire about your hero suit, what inspired you?" She asked, as if it was obvious.

"You could tell it was inspired? I'm a bit embarrassed now. To answer your question, it was more of a redesign of something else, but I can't really show you what of at this moment. I can show you tomorrow at School?" He offered, before glancing down at the ring on his hand, and cupping it under his other.

"Please. I'm quite curious, it's so intricate, and well designed. You had to have had a drawing point to bring certain aspects from. So I look forward to tomorrow." She said, smiling while explaining her view.

"I see. Oh- My stop is next. Time cut short by the bell. Well, it's been lovely Momo, I look forward to tomorrow." Mugen stated, getting up and politely bowing to Momo.

"Oh, have a good night Y/n. I'll see you at class. It's been a great chat." She said, waving bye. With that, the two went separate ways.

After getting off the metro Mugen had the feeling of being followed. So he had gone into a corner store and hid slightly behind an aisle. Soon enough, somebody walked in with shifty eyes. Not being one to hide, he stepped out of the aisle.

"Looking for somebody?" He asked, lightning sparking in his eyes.

The man locked eyes with Mugen, before smirking.

"You really are your daddy's child. Too bad that your cargo. You'd be a good asset to us." The man said, activating his quirk. Showing off a flashy set of four more arms coated in metal.

"Explain to me something. If I am so much his child... What makes you think, you can handle me?" Mugen asked, stepping forward, "Why would some... D-Lister thug be able to handle a Tartarus worthy supervillain's kid?" Mugen continued forward, lightning slightly sparking off his shoes onto the tile, "Answer that, before I give you whiplash at a speed not even that camera a couple feet away can even begin capture." He demanded, now in front of his pursuer.

"D-Lister thug? I'll have you now I'm no-"

THUD

"Help! This guy just passed out in front of me, is anyone here a paramedic?!" Mugen faked, but nobody thought he did.

"I am, hang on, let me just use my quirk to help." This lady came up to him and held her hand on his forehead, which seemed to resuscitate the thug.

He woke in a panic, seeing Mugen he nearly screamed, if not for the glare he received.

"Uh.. W-Where am I?" The thug said, unsure of what to do in this situation.

"You passed out, it looked like you got dizzy, are you eating well? Drinking water?" Mugen asked, seeming genuinely concerned to the untrained eye.

"Uh... N-Not really. I pay child support which takes most of my pay." The thug said, making the excuse just wanting to get out of there.

"Aw well here. Let me buy you some food and water for you. " Mugen stated, before getting up and paying for some ramen and water for the thug.

The thug thanked him and left shortly after, while Mugen stayed and bought his own things.

After leaving the convenience store, He looked up at a building where a silhouette stood. They were in a spandex suit from what it looked like, and their arms crossed. Before turning and flying away at high speed.

"Who?.." He said to himself as he wondered who it was that was up there.

$$$ The Next Day $$$

Mugen sat up, and looked to his left, seeing the Flash ring on his desk. He grabbed it and put it on, before standing up. Now standing, he held his hand out, In a second the suit had sprung out and Mugen had changed into it. He put his school outfit on over it, and put his bag on his shoulder. He wrote a note on his desk signalling his departure for Iida. He walked to the door and slid on his shoes and waved off his parents from work.

Mugen began walking to the metro, he had seen Momo sitting where she had sat yesterday, and sat by her. This gained a couple looks of intrigue. Nobody dared approach her in fear of somebody putting a target on their back.

Momo Yaoyorozu, the daughter of the prestigious Yaoyorozu family, a very socially high standard family. They were very respected among Mosutofu.

Versus Mugen Hancock, adopted son of the Iida family, however, his true heritage.. His father is theL Supervillain named Hancock, a villain said to have power similar to All Might, not as powerful, but similar. His mother.. She's a special case.

"Hello there." Mugen greeted, sitting down.

"Why hello there, Y/n." Momo replied, turning slightly towards him. She seemed excited to see him, but noticed a distinct difference with his appearance. His ring wasn't on his hand, and his uniform looked fuller, "What happened that ring you wore yesterday? It seemed important to you?"

"Oh, I have it, it's just in my pocket right now. But I also have what you were wanting to see yesterday, so you'll see it today." Mugen said, as he felt his suit given to him by Cisco.

"Amazing, I'm excited to see what it is." She smiled, as she replied to his words

He pulled the ring out from his pocket and rubbed the lightning bolt a bit. He smiled, remembering his mentor Barry.

Momo saw this behavior and asked, "Is that ring given to you by somebody special? Not to pry- Just curious."

"You could say that. This was given to me as a departing gift by my friend in the Americas." Mugen explained, his smile still present as he was reminded about his time with Barry.

"I see. It must be very special to you. What do you think will be happening in class today?" Momo asked, a friendly smile on her face.

"To be honest, I think the question is, what won't be happening?" Mugen chuckled to himself.

He put his hand through his hair and looked out the window. He looked at a building passing by, the same silhouette as yesterday being visible for but a second, before it vanished behind a bus.

Mugen looked back to Momo, who had been staring at his hair, it was a bit more than neck length, about an inch or two from his shoulders. Looking at him, she was at awe of his cold white hair. It swayed ever so slightly from the turn of his head.

"Huh. What's wrong Momo?" He asked, seeing her staring at him.

"Oh, I just thought your hair looks lovely," She said, getting knocked back in reality, she realized what she had just said,"I mean- It looks great today."

"Thanks, your hair looks lovely too." He replied with a smirk, winking at her.

Part One is finished, Part two is in the making. Will Mugen be exposed to this mystical phantom he's been seeing? Will his true thoughts be revealed? What's his full speed? Find out, next time! On Faster Than You!
