My first memory... is of being beaten. With a quirk I could've protected myself, but they are quite fickle things. Only women could unlock the quirk gene. So I had to make my own. My parents died when I was younger. I don't remember to much about them. What I do remember is that they were cold, uncaring, and pricks. What I'm building will change everything. It will let me scan quirks, and utilize them to their maximum potential! Take for instance... Endeavour! If she touches it, her DNA is added to the file, and I can use her quirk! With some minor improvements.
"Ben!? Where are you?" Oh! That's my friend Izumi!
"I'm in the garage!" Time to cover the machine back up. I see her walk in, and she's crying!? I don't know how to deal with this! I don't WANT to know how to deal with this! Then she jumps at me? I'm being hugged!?
"I'm gonna be a hero! All Might is gonna gi-train me! Yep! Totally just gonna train me!" Ok. Sure. And I'm going to end up with a harem!
"You can stop hugging me now." She was easily taller than me. Bad genetics I suppose, and suddenly I'm being dropped by a blushing Izumi.
"I-I-I g-gotta g-go!" And she's gone. That was fast. I return to the device and smile. Time to have some fun. I attach it to my wrist, grab a revolver full of blanks, put on a mask, and turn it on.
I walk to the nearest bank. Now to get some samples! I pull out the revolver and fire it into the air.
"Listen up! I want... $100,000!" I then wait.
"Give up Villian!" It's Endeavour. Perfecto.
"Make me." She sends out a burst of flame. I dodge, get close, and touch her face.
"[QUIRK SAMPLE COLLECTED: ACCESS?]"
"Of course!" I feel a surge of power as my outfit, and me, bursts into flame.
"W-Who are you!?" Ha!
"Me? Well... I'm just a bored kid, but when I'm like this? Call me Heatblast. Now time for me to go." I fire flames from my hands and feet in an attempt to fly! I...hope this works. I launch into the air, and 10 minutes later I'm home, and back to normal.
