There's an abandoned warehouse in the city slums of Musutafu.
No human had stepped foot in this place for decades, until a young teenager seeking shelter, stumbled upon it. With nowhere else to go, he cautiously entered the decaying building, grateful for a temporary place to rest his head.
As he wanders through the dark and dusty halls, an old security drone hovered silently over the young teen. As he got deeper into the abandoned factory, a dozen more security drones silently take flight from the ceiling and take aim at him. A loudspeaker somewhere echoes with the following message in a robotic tone,
"State your name and purpose, now."
The young man freezes in fear, but manages to squeeze out, "I'm Kyodai... I-I'm sorry for intruding...I... just needed a place to sleep, is that too much to ask..?"
The security drones slowly lower themselves towards the boy. Meanwhile, the original one scans the boy's eyes, face, age, and general health. The security drones then land right in front of both of the boy as the same automated voice comes back over the loudspeaker.
"Identification confirmed. Kyodai Takuro Age: 15. Injuries: None. Threat level: Pending. Quirk: Unknown or Not Applicable."
There's a few moments of silence before a part of the wall opens up to reveal a secret room,
"Please take one step inside Mr. Takuro."
The boy takes one step into the room, just like he was instructed. And immediately, all the security drones fly in with him and close the door behind them. As lights slowly turn all the way on, the boy can see a large array of all manner of gadgets that look decades old. There's a long table in the middle of the place with some tools and broken devices. Standing at the far end of the room is an odd and ominous box with tinted glass.
As he gets closer to the box, it looks like some form of chamber. The drones don't move an inch on either side of the boy as he gets closer to it. It looks like something is inside the Box.
The voice suddenly comes back on the loudspeaker,
"You are welcome to stay here for the night, but don't interact with anything in this room, or I'll make you regret it."
Another hidden door opens in the distance.
"Can I ask who you are?" The young man asks
A very simple room can be seen through the door. All it has in there is a small bed and a fridge. The voice comes back over the loudspeaker.
"I, am designated as A.I.D.E.N. Rest as long as you need. I will now deactivate the security drones in this area for the night. No one will disturb you."
The security drones then hover towards a small niche on the wall and shut down. The main door closes and the lights in the lab all dim down to about half their previous brightness. The only light really illuminating the lab is coming from the ominous Box. It seems to be the only thing that isn't shut down.
Kyodai walks into to the room, settling into the small bed, grateful for the chance to finally rest. The hum of the fridge provided a steady background noise as he closed his eyes. But as as he tries to let his thoughts drift, one thing kept nagging at him - the mysterious box in the corner of the lab.
Perhaps just a quick peek wouldn't hurt, he thought. Slowly, he rises from the bed and tiptoes towards the box. The allure of the unknown was simply too strong to resist. The boy peers into it. In the dim light, all he can make out is a form that seems to be a human shape. His eyes slowly adjust to the light, and it is, in fact, a suit. Not just any suit though, it's a hero costume. It's a full bodysuit, with several odd attachments and armor plating. For some reason, it also has a fedora.
