Wiliam Shay was having a beer while sitting at his computer getting his itinerary in order as he was traveling to Japan in a week or so. He was supposed to go to some seminar or something like that, some kind collaboration meeting between the United Americas hero commission branch and the Japanese branch. He didn't know why he had been asked to go when he wasn't even a B class hero since he was mostly Support Class Paramedic and Fire Prevention Squad work, although he did have an elimination license so that could be way and he has terminated 4 villains so that could also be why. Commissioner Dunkin was pro termination and maybe he wanted William there to push the agenda.
"I hate politics" mumbled Willam.
William heard his doorbell ring, so he got up to check it out and standing outside his home were an older Japanese man with gray hair, yellow eyes and a skinny white man with lines on his face. He opened the door to shoo them off if they were trying to sell him something.
"Can I help you?" asked William.
"Hello my name is Robert Josph and this is my associate Otto Hans" said the older man.
Willim heard the man's name and blinked.
"What was that?" asked William confused.
"What?" asked Robert.
"You gave me a fake name but I believe you, I doubt that makes sense" said William.
"Odd I thought you were of the current generation but the way you reacted it seems you're from my generation" said Robert.
Otto looked at Robert confused.
"I had siblings, I'm assuming since they came from the same parent they count as my generation, they could resist unlike my mother who came from generation 4, your generation 6 Otto, so it doesn't affect you too much unless I put in more effort" explained Robert.
William was confused and even more confused by what Otto said.
"Your 70, and I'm in my 20's so shouldn't this guy be my generation?" asked Otto.
"I'm 45, the heck are you talking about?" asked William.
"Any chance you know about project Rhea?" asked Robert.
William let out a sigh.
"There's an empty grass field about 5 miles that way, can we fight there or if you are willing to worry about our so-called master later, come in and have a beer, we can talk instead" said William.
"I am grandfather, I have no intention of fighting to the death" said Robert.
"I'm a villain but I would also like a beer" said Otto.

William stood in the shadow of the building he was on and watched as his daughter draw or wrote in her notebook. She did that often but since she had absorbed the booger monster, she hadn't done it until today so he wondered if she was finally feeling the guilt or she had started hearing his voice and was trying to distract herself.
"This is boring, lets go already, your friend's didn't fake kill you so we could watch your abandoned offspring write about her feelings" whined a voice in his head.
"Carson shut up, it's been 3 days since she absorbed him, something should happen soon" said William.
"The others told you to stay away, now I don't care but they did go to great lengths to protect her, Yes All for One will learn eventually that she healed All Might, but he doesn't need to learn that you couldn't be bothered to wear a condom, besides if she is the more evolved version of you, how do you know she'll gain aspects of his quirk?" asked Carson.
William had found out when he absorbed his girlfriend Rachel that she had become a voice in his head 3 days after it happened as well as an aspect of her quirk. His right hand burned and stiffened as his joints turned to iron which gave him the ability to move objects made of iron. He could still use that hand but now it just hit harder. His girlfriend had been quite angry about it and made it known to him, her constant screaming kept him awake for several days and then he was forced to use it on Carson. He wanted to weaken the man, instead he couldn't stop and killed him. 3 days later Carson was in his head and wasn't that upset about it. He also gained a very weak, very specific version of Carson's quirk, Hit and Run. When William used the power, all injuries were traceable to a 1992 red Toyota Camery. When asked Carson just laughed. A plus side to having Carson meant Rachel got annoyed and went to sleep which just meant she went silent for months on a time. He figured as trapped personalities they were just going dormant until they noticed something that caught their interest.
"Because she's the more evolved version and instead of gaining a random power she may have naturally evolved without procreation" explained William.
"So how long are we going to watch?" asked Carson.
"I don't know" said William.
"Would vomiting up blood be a sign?" asked Rachel.
William was confused at first and surprised she had spoken until he noticed the red stain in her room.
"Fuck!" groaned William.
"You should go take care of that, she is your child after all, you know the one you conceived while we were together" demanded Rachel.
"We were on a break, and we were just hooking up" said William.
"You met my parents!, my dad called you son, you came to my family reunion" hissed Rachel.
"Bigger problem, now you have to call Robert" said Carson.
"I..damn it" said William.
10 minutes ago.
Izumi was in her room sketching in her notebook. She had planned to draw All Might leaping out of the sewer but had drawn the slime villain instead and was now shading one side darker than the other. Each stroke of the pencil was a reminder that she had killed someone and lied to All Might about it which would result in him going on a wild goose chase. She tossed the notebook across the room and hugged a pillow. She knew what she did and she felt bad about it. She felt like she wanted to throw up. She pondered if she should turn herself in but then Bakugo would be right because she was a monster and for the last 3 days pretended like nothing had happened.
"I'm not a monster, it was self defense" declared Izumi.
Izumi didn't know what she expected when she said that as she was home alone so there was no answer just silence. The silence that had followed when she killed the slime villain. It was louder when she was alone and in the dark. She felt like throwing up. Izumi stood up to get her notebook when she was hit with a wave of nausea and threw up blood. Izumi could feel another wave coming and raced to the bathroom and threw up more blood into the sink.
"Wow that's chunky" said a voice in her head.
Izumi tried to speak but threw up again as her chest burned. She looked around for her phone but couldn't find before she threw up again.
"You left it in your room" said the voice.
"Everything hurts" whined Izumi.
"I can see that, I think my slime is replacing your organs" said the voice.
"What!" thought Izumi as she threw up again.
"I was the guy trying to kill you, but you killed me first" explained the voice.
"I'm sorry" said Izumi as she gasped for breath.
You feel safe with us.
Izumi felt a hand on her back and looked up to see a women who was helping her over to the toilet. The women was tan with brown hair and red finger nails that looked kind of like needles. Izumi felt some comfort as the women rubbed her back and whispered it's ok over and over again, Izumi didn't know who she was but felt safe with her. She also heard male voices arguing but didn't recognize them. She kept throwing up blood. A short black male stood behind her with a machine that looked half camera half tablet. He was using to see inside her which showed a growing mass of something slashing at her internal organs then filling the space.
"Why the hell didn't you call us when it happened" demanded Robert.
"I wanted to see my daughter and knew you wouldn't approve" William.
"She's not you daughter, she's your successor, look Otto is busy, so we need to clean this ourselves," said Robert.
"Um do you need my help to make her forget we were here?" asked a green tinted teenager with a bullet hole in his head.
"She's in enough pain and put the hat back on Henry" demanded Robert.
The decaying teen placed a hat on his head and stood by the door to watch for Inko if she came back early.
Robert walked up to the man with the camera tablet.
"What's the verdict Franklin?" asked Robert.
"She absorbed a guy made of sludge or something and now it's pulverizing her organs which is what she is throwing up, her insides are being replaced, she already didn't need to eat or sleep but now she never has to worry about organ failure and her brain has been encased in a slime shield, she's evolved and could possibly do it again without ever needing to reproduce" explained Franklin.
"What's the possibility of her being a singularity?" asked Robert.
"I would need to crunch the numbers but at this point unless she starts absorbing every quirk in the area I would say it's quite slim" said Franklin.
Robert looked at the other members of project Rhea and at this moment regretted cleaning out his attic 16 years ago. He decided on a plan and sent the three guys out to get cleaning supplies. He left Chyou with Izumi as he looked around her room. He closed his eyes and thought about her cell phone hoping it was in here, he opened his eyes and grabbed her phone from under her pillow, he concentrated on the phone until he found the passcode and typed it in. He put his number in her phone and marked it as Hero fandom support chat.
"Robert she's done, and I injected a pain killer" said Chyou entering the room.
Robert nodded then entered the bathroom. Izumi saw him but couldn't speak because her throat felt sore. He placed both hands on her head.
"You spent the last couple hours watching animal videos on YouTube and doodling in your notebook, you won't remember throwing up or the slime guy you killed, he ran away, if you find a quirk that you want to eat, call me first, you never saw any of us tonight, the slime creature's personality will go dormant until the sentence pickle popsicle on daisy chain is said, now forget!
Izumi sat up in bed and looked around confused. She felt rested almost like she had taken a nap. It was then she noticed the video on her phone and the alert that it was at 15%. She quickly put it on the charger then headed to the bathroom to take a shower.
