Sukui wasn't sure how her father gained access to one of U.A. 's fake cities, if she had to guess it would be part of the benefits of being important.
Not that she was complaining, it was the perfect place for this type of exercise.
For the last few weeks, she had been training on being able to fight without using her sensors.
Because while her sensors did help out, A LOT, they also took time to work, and she had to consciously activate them.
As such in situations that required instant, decisive action, she would need to go without these sensors, as well as her aiming system.
And so that is what led to where she is now.
Her, in a fake city, facing off against an All Might bot with Izuku watching over the cams.
The goal? Defeat the Might bot while keeping the damage to the surroundings to a minimum. All without using her sensors.
"Alright. Starting the villain program now. You know what to do sweetheart." Izuku told her using the coms in her head.
"Of course," Sukui smirked. "Let's do this dad."
After a few seconds, the Might Bot stood to attention, and a blue glow illuminated his eye holes.
"Ah haha! I am a rogue Might Bot! Here to do evil and tarnish the name of All Might! Try and stop me!" The All Might bot shouted out in All Might's voice.
Sukui couldn't help but giggle at how campy that was. Then again All Might was a very campy person, so Izuku had been spot on. Although given that Izuku was...Izuku. That was to be expected.
"Bring it you...fake!" An unfortunate thing for Sukui is that insulting other robots could be difficult. Not because she didn't want to, but because it was hard to find insults for other mechanical creations that didn't also apply to her in some way.
Sukui ran forward and blasted the bot with her laser vision, causing it to falter.
Yes! Sukui doesn't want to think about how many times she missed because she wasn't used to not using her targeting her system.
The Might bot quickly related, charging at her with its fist cocked and ready to smash.
Sukui had learned well enough how to read an oncoming punch, and ducked under it, before grabbing it.
The teenage robot then punched into the fake's side, making a big dent.
Might Bot tried to beat her down with her other arm, but Sukui just jumped back, and unleashed another blast of heat vision, hitting it in the face, melting off its fake skin, and damaging its eyes.
With its eyes melted, the bot started wildly swinging around its arms in an attempt to hit her.
Sukui waited for the robot to get a bit closer, and then blasted one of its knees, causing it to fall onto its other knee.
With her enemy on its knees, Sukui charged forward and delivered a devastating uppercut to its robot jaw, making it flop onto the floor.
"T-T-Toooo Muuuch D-damage s-s-suatined. Shutting downnnnnnn." The Might Bot said before its body went limp.
"Heh. Easy." Sukui patted herself on the back.
"Well, I hope you don't plan on melting people's faces off when you face real villains," Izuku told her.
"Of course not! My programming wouldn't even let me do that!" Sukui pointed out, sounding mildly offended.
"Don't you take that tone with me, young lady," Izuku said jokingly.
The two of them laughed for a few seconds before the laughter died down and the two continued the conversation.
"Well, I have to go back to work." Izuku sighed.
"Aw come on dad! I wanna see if I could try one without leaving permanent, debilitating injuries!" Sukui said with a bit too much nonchalance.
"Don't worry I'm almost done with one of my projects but it has to be finished by tomorrow," Izuku explained.
"Ohhh? Is it something for the Sports Festival perhaps?" Sukui asked, hoping her father would provide details.
"Uh-huh. And I'm not telling you anything about it." Izuku said, quickly shutting her down(not literally).
"Ah come on dad! Can't a doting father give his daughter any special information?" Sukui teased.
"That would be cheating Sukui." Izuku pointed out.
"I know I know! I was kidding!" Sukui giggled. "I don't need any special info anyway. I'll clear this whole event without breaking a sweat."
"Well to be fair you don't have a method of perspiration so you literally can't sweat, but I understand what you're saying," Izuku told her. "Just don't get overconfident. Your classmates, as well as class 1-B and students from the other courses, will all be trying their hardest, you'd do well not to underestimate them."
"At the very least I think I'm ok underestimating Mineta." Sukui rolled her eyes as she remembered the purple pervert. The purpvert.
"I wouldn't. Even the most unlikely of people can be capable of things you'd never believe." Izuku told her. "I mean, no one would have thought I was capable of making you after all."
"Well, that's because everyone you met before was a bunch of idiots! I always knew you were amazing!" Sukui said with pride.
"Well...I made you." Izuku pointed out. "You are...literally my greatest achievement."
"You know it," Sukui said, purposely missing the point as she made a smug face.
Izuku didn't know whether to simile or sigh so he did both. "Well, you should take some time to relax. I have to go. Bye."
"Bye, Dad," Sukui said before he hung up. "Well...guess I should head back home, Grandma's probably lonely again."
And with that Sukui walked towards the dorm buildings, while the U.A. bots carried away the Might Bot and cleaned up the area.
Meanwhile, with Izuku.
Izuku was in the backseat of a car, being driven by one of U.A.'s staff, currently headed to an off-campus construction site, where project Drake was being finished.
"Hatsumi said that all we should have to do is complete the finishing touches," Izuku said to Nezu, who was sitting in the passenger seat. "She really is a prodigy you know."
"Indeed. It appears that there is a surplus of those nowadays." Nezu said cheerfully. "I'm glad we managed to scoop the two of you up before I-Island did...tell me, did you ever consider going?"
"To I-Island?" Izuku was a bit surprised by the question. "Well...no. I never really considered myself smart enough for a place like that."
"But you considered yourself smart enough to create a full sentient gyroid?" Nezu asked, pointing out the hole in Izuku's logic.
"Well, I honestly didn't think I could do that either. It was more of a desperation thing." Izuku sheepishly admitted. "It was only when I really started getting into the project that I realized it was possible...and when All for One took notice of me."
"I imagined that would be the case. He wouldn't commit his time to something he wasn't sure would work." Nezu affirmed. "After all, being sloppy proved to be his downfall once before."
The rest of the ride was silent, adding "the mood" to the long list of things All for One had killed.
A few minutes later, the car stopped, and they got out onto the site.
The site itself was inside a large building made of concrete, courtesy of Cementoss. This was to keep what was inside a secret.
After entering, they were met with the sight of many robots running around, with scaffolding and ladders set up around a huge thing that was covered in a white tarp.
They didn't get very far inside before hearing a familiar voice shout. "Midoriya!"
They looked to the side and saw Hatsume running towards them with an enormous smile on her face.
"Ah, Ms. Hatsume." Nezu addressed her when she finally stopped in front of them. "I assume Project Drake is ready for those finishing touches you mentioned?"
"Actually! I decided to do the finishing touches myself!" Hatsume said, her voice holding none of the shame it should.
"What!? Hatsume you were supposed to wait for me before we completed the project!" Izuku admonished.
"I couldn't help it! That H.E.R.O. energy! It's amazing! Oh, the things we could make with that! It's unlike anything else seen on earth! The baby potential is unlimited!" Hatsume gushed.
Izuku facepalmed and gave a long-suffering sigh. "Well, what's done is done. I'll look over it to make sure you didn't make any mistakes, and then I'll double-check tomorrow morning."
"Oh! I can't wait to see this baby in action! The sheer destructive power! This thing could take down a whole city before anyone could stop it!" Mei continued to gush.
"Well it's good that you know its capabilities because you'll be the one piloting tomorrow," Nezu revealed.
"WHAT!?" Both Izuku and Mei asked at the same time, one with a look of pure horror and the other looking like they just won the lottery.
"Are you trying to kill the students!?" Izuku looked like he was about to have a heart attack, probably because his daughter was among those students.
"Now, now, Mr. Midoriya, Ms. Hatsume was of considerable help during the construction of the project, I'm sure she knows how to use it without killing her opponents," Nezu reassured him. "And if she doesn't, we can always shut it down remotely. And if we are forced to resort to this, there will be dire consequences, is this understood Ms. Hatsume?"
Seemingly unaffected by Nezu's chilling threat, the huge smile and ecstatic energy remained as Mei nodded so rapidly they were surprised she didn't break her neck. "Yes sir! I won't let you down!"
This did very, very little to reassure Izuku, and he was starting to wish he HAD told Sukui about Drake.
Suddenly, Izuku's phone rang.
He pulled it out and saw that the one calling was Recovery Girl.
Immediately he answered and held the phone to his ear.
"Midoriya! Get back over here! That Shinso boy is awake!" Recovery Girl told him. "I'm running a medical diagnostic on him now. But I have no idea how to deal with the mechanical crap."
"Alright! I'll be over there immediately!" Izuku responded before the conversation ended, and he turned to his boss and apprentice. "Shinso just woke up. We have to go!"
Half an hour later, back at the lab.
Izuku and Nezu rushed into the laboratory and were met with the sight of Shinso, sitting upright on a padded table.
He had various machines connected to him, and Shinso himself even looked a little different. Just a bit bulkier, more muscular, like he just completed a year's worth of exercise. But other than that, he didn't look much different. Which was intended.
Recovery Girl was standing close by, putting away her tools.
"Welcome back to the world of living Mr. Shinso." Nezu greeted. "How are you feeling?"
"Fine...although I'm surprised I'm feeling anything at all," Shinso answered honestly, opening and closing his hand, before tightening his grip. "It's not what I expected. But...I feel strong. It's...incredible it's…"
Shinso honestly didn't know how to fully describe what he felt. When he woke up from the coma, it was like...he wasn't even in his own body anymore. Like he went to sleep and woke up as someone else...someone stronger.
"It's ok to not give a full answer right now. I understand that this might be a bit...overwhelming." Izuku told him, as he disconnected him from some machines, and attached some new ones onto his body. "Let me just take a look at everything, tell me if you feel strange."
Once everything had been connected to Shinso, Izuku went over to a panel and pressed some buttons, and looked at some screens. "I see...everything is as expected. Is everything ok on the medical side?"
"He's healthy as far as I can tell." Recovery Girl told them. "I've never done a check-up quite like this before, so excuse me if I'm inexperienced...heh. Never thought I'd say that again...makes me feel young again."
"Alright. Unfortunately, we don't have time to do much testing so for now we'll just monitor you to make sure you're stable." Izuku said.
"We already have a room prepared for you in the dorms," Nezu said. "You'll have to excuse us for the abundance of security cameras, but we do need to make sure absolutely nothing goes wrong."
"Not exactly giving me much confidence." Shinso deadpanned, before going back to inspecting his body.
"S-Sorry! I-I assure you from what we can tell, you absolutely in the clear. The riskiest parts have already passed I swear!" It was unclear if Izuku was trying to reassure Shinso or himself. "I-It's just...we're in completely new territory, we are trying to understand it the best we can but...the science is new. We have to be ready in case the worst happens...oh god I'm just making this worse!"
"No, it's fine." Shinso sighed. "I knew what I was signing up for."
"And we appreciate your willingness to continue in the face of those risks. Your bravery has greatly helped contribute to the field of science." Nezu told him. "Regardless of what happens during the tournament, you are already a hero."
"Hmm." Shinso hummed, still not looking away from his arm. "Well in that case can you do me a favor and not treat me like I'm about to die any moment?"
"Fair enough." Nezu agreed. "In that case, let's let Mr. Shinso test his new legs shall we?"
"Oh right." And with that Izuku started unplugging Shinso from the machines, until he was finally clear. "Alright, let's see how well you walk."
Shinso nodded, and hopped off the table, and stood up for the first time in weeks.
He moved his legs up and down a bit and took a few steps in a circle.
"How does it feel?" Izuku asked him, taking a notepad.
"Effortless," Shinso responded immediately. "Do you mind if I damage the floor a bit?"
"Not at all," Nezu responded before Izuku could, leaving the green-haired roboticist to sign and accept that decision.
STOMP!
Shinso raised his foot high and then slammed it into the ground, causing the sturdy floor under him to crack, and even made Izuku lose his footing a bit.
"Incredible." Nezu's ever-present smile grew a bit larger.
"Are you still ok?" Izuku asked Shinso as soon as he regained his balance.
Shinso just stared at the cracks made in the floor by his foot, before a smirk made its way onto his face. "Doc. For the first time in a long time. Yes. Yes, I am."
The next day, at the U.A. Stadium
It was finally time. The U.A. sports festival had arrived.
There was a truly enormous crowd gathered in the seats, with many of the participant's families being present.
In the center of the stadium was a huge grass arena, with a wooden stage in the middle of it.
On the grass were all the students of U.A., with Class 1.A., sans Bakugo, gathered up altogether, and the teachers and Izuku, being gathered up on the stage.
Sukui was standing next to Ochaco, with a confident smirk on her face.
Unfortunately, her friend didn't share the same confidence.
To be fair it's not like Ochaco was a nervous mess, Sukui had been with her father long enough to know what that looked like, most people would have just thought she was simply determined, which she was, but her scanners could also tell she was quite nervous. Rapid heartbeat, excess sweat, slight trembling, the works.
"Hey," Sukui whispered to her friend, getting her attention. "What are you so nervous about?"
"Nervous!? I'm not nervous, what are you talking about?!" Ochaco denied.
"Ocha, I'm a robot. I can literally see that you're nervous." Sukui reminded her with a cocky smirk.
"Uhhh. Can you blame me!?" Ochaco asked her, letting a bit more of her nervousness show. "Look at all the people watching! And my parents too!"
"That just means more people get to see how great you are," Sukui told her. "Again, why are you so worried? We are the shit!"
"I wish I had your confidence," Ochaco muttered.
Before the conversation could continue, Midnight stepped up to the mic.
"Hello everyone! Welcome to the U.A. sports festival!" Midnight said, getting a round of applause and cheers from the audience that drowned out any other sound for a bit.
"God I'm so glad dad didn't let me feel pain, that would have KILLED my ears," Sukui said.
"Lucky you." Jiro was physically recoiling from how loud the crowd was.
Midnight went on a bit with the introduction, before getting to an interesting part. "Now. Normally we would have a speech from the student that earned the number one spot at the hero entrance exam. However, due to complications, that is not possible."
Bakugo grumbled from within the audience. "Why the fuck am I here?"
"Because your gonna cheer on your classmates and your gonna fucking like it!" Mitsuki Bakugo reminds him with a smack on the back of the head.
Back on stage, Midnight continued. "And so instead we decided to do something different. I give to you, the head of U.A's engineering department, Izuku Midoriya!"
Midnight moved aside, and Izuku very, VERY tentatively walked up to the mic, visibly shaking and sweating enough to fill entire buckets.
He had been told about this ahead of time...that didn't do much to make him less nervous about talking to the entire world.
"U-U-Uh-um….Hello." Izuku awkwardly introduced himself, getting a mostly silent reaction from the crowd. "S-So...many of you...have probably heard about the rumor of a robot or an android going to U.A.''
This caused some murmuring amongst the audience. It was true that after Sukui revealed herself as not being human, many of the people who witnessed it told a bunch of people. Of course, with no proof of this, many people had simply written this off as them seeing someone with a weird quirk playing a prank.
That's not to say the rumor died. No, there were still a few people who believed it and even certain reporters had tried to ask U.A. questions about this, only to get stonewalled.
So hearing U.A. themselves, bring it up, ceterintaly caught people's attention.
"Well...it's...mostly true. I have created the world's first...fully sentient Gynoid...that's uh...female android." Izuku explained.
The audience gasped, and after a few seconds of shock, the murmurs increased dramatically, getting much louder than before.
Izuku trembled a bit more at the sheer weight of the attention that was now on him. It took him a few minutes to summon the courage to speak again. "N-Now I understand some of you might be...c-confused about this. And you have...a lot of questions. A-And U.A. will be holding a press event specifically about this. B-But for now I think the best thing to do, would be to introduce you to her. So uh...this is Sukui Midoriya, my daughter."
And class 1A's eyes turned to Sukui, and then the other classes eyes turned to Sukui, and then the audience's eyes turned to Sukui.
Sukui was taken aback at suddenly being put on the spot, but quickly got over it and walked onto the stage.
The robot girl stepped up to the mic, getting an "I'm sorry" look from Izuku before he stepped back.
"So. I wasn't really told about this, thanks for that dad." Sukui gave her father a look, once again receiving an apologetic look from her creator. "But since I'm up here...no...this doesn't feel right."
And then, suddenly, without any warning. Sukui ripped off her shirt and pants. And of course, she wasn't wearing a bra or panties because...why would she?
So she was, completely, naked.
"EHHHHHHHHHHHH!?" Shouted pretty much, everyone.
"SUKUI!" Izuku screeched at the top of his lungs. "What are you doing!?"
"Oh relax dad, you gave me the body of a barbie doll. See!" Sukui pointed to her lack of nipples and private parts. "And if we're gonna show me off as the world's first Robo-girl-"
Sukui then proceeded to start taking off her artificial skin. Starting with her head, then her torso, then her arms, and then her legs. Until her true, metal body was revealed for the world to see.
"Might as well show them the real me." Sukui laid her entire body out for the world to see. Letting everyone know that she was in fact mechanical, and proud.
The crowd was in shock. Some of them couldn't believe that they were looking at a real, sentient gynoid, and some of them weren't sure if they should be aroused or not.
"So, I know what a lot of you are thinking. Of god it's the terminator, judgment day is coming." Sukui jokes. "And I'm here to say, don't worry, I can't access the internet, I can't make a hundred of me and put myself in different bodies, and my programming doesn't let me kill people without cause. So, no robot apocalypse."
This got more murmurs from the crowd, but Sukui ignored them and kept talking.
"Now I know some of you aren't gonna be happy about a robot being able to be part of the hero course...and to that, I say fuck you." Sukui put up two middle fingers, causing the entire U.A. staff except for Nezu to facepalm. "I'm gonna be a hero, just like everyone else...except you know, better. And that's really all I have to say about that, accept me? Don't accept me? I don't give a shit. Bye."
Sukui then grabbed her fake skin and torn U.A. tracksuit, and walked off stage.
Midnight quickly took to the mic. "Well, she certainly is a character, isn't she! If she didn't literally take her skin off I wouldn't know she was a gynoid! Moving on! Let's start the U.A. sports festival with the first event!"
It was obvious she was trying to take attention away from what Sukui just did, and it didn't really work out too well, as pretty much everyone's attention was still on Sukui.
Fortunately, U.A. had something that would do a better job.
"Now, normally we start off with a race. However, Midoriya has been working on a special project, and we think now would be the time to unveil it." Midnight said.
Suddenly, a giant shadow covered the stadium.
Everyone looked up, and saw that the thing casting said shadow, wasn't a cloud...and it was getting closer.
All the students in the center of that stadium started running away, leaving space for whatever it was to come crashing down.
SMASH!
And then, touching down in the stadium, hitting the ground so hard it caused the earth to shake and plenty of students around it to fall on their buts-
Was a giant, building-sized, mechanical dragon.
"Introducing! The Dragoon!"
Alright! So now we know what project Drake is! It's a giant mecha dragon. And so instead of the race, the U.A. students now get to deal with this!
Oh and some of you may have figured out what's been going on with Shinso, but if you haven't, it will be revealed later on.
And Sukui has been revealed to the public, in a very HER way. Much to Izuku's embarrassment.
Anyway, have a nice day!
