Chapter 1: Choices

(This is it. What you've been waiting for~ or probably haven't been waiting for because there are other Todomomo books. Anyways, welcome to the new All Of The Lights!)

The Yaoyorozus were a highly respectable family in both Japan and France. A mother with skills as great as her beauty, a father who gained the respect of several government officials, and a daughter who was the definition of perfection. Just a respectable family with nothing going on behind the scenes. No, seriously! They were perfect inside and out. Murielle, the mother was obviously a bit stern and strict but it never hurt anyone! The only time anyone got hurt was when... nope! No one ever got hurt in this household.

Ever since Momo was young she had gotten choices on everything in life. Apples or peaches. She always chose peaches, what she happened to be named after. Green dress or red dress. She chose the red dress. Chocolate or Vanilla? She chose vanilla. Be a hero or gain the family business? Momo chose to gain the family business. Her kids could always be the next best heroes and what good would her quirk do other than provide aid? Sure she could make weapons but she would have to learn how to use them and it was a bit useless to have her when all she could make was non living things. So she decided it would be better to gain the family business. Being a hero would be too much anyways. Her mother was one and she didn't come home until three in the morning on some nights. Then some nights she'd come home covered in a mixture of her blood and someone else's. Awful right? Momo was scared of that. Genuinely terrified of dying an 'honorable death'.

The older Iida brother was a hero as well. He was nothing but kind when Momo dropped by to see Tenya. The two twelve year olds had been friends since birth. Well, they weren't born on the same day but they had been best friends since Momo was born. They shared jokes, were known as the "tattle tails' ' and were also the only two who were brave enough to touch a frog at recess. Momo was really reluctant but Tenya... he picked it up and held it in his hands when someone tried to kill it! So rude... Only after Momo saw it so comfortable and happy in Tenya's hands, she decided to hold it herself. Their teacher almost lost her wig because she was so scared! She made them wash their hands and they still laughed about it even a month later! Tenya wanted to be a hero and even planned on going to UA. Momo's mother went to a hero academy in France while she was there, but Momo thought they were all The same and that there was no point in having a debate on who the better school was. In her opinion, all they did was help get people killed. To a large amount of people, her ideas were false and UA and Shiketsu were the "go to" schools. It was an unrealistic dream that only people with combat quirks could achieve.

At the moment, twelve year old Momo and Tenya were getting picked up by Momo's father. Murielle was busy making plans with her hero agency. Her mother's quirk was called Detective, making it pretty good for that. Detective was where she got the very difficult part of her quirk, which also made Science, more importantly chemistry, her favorite subject. Biology was fun but it was living things, which she couldn't make! So it wasn't that useful to her.

"When we get home, I want you to practice your piano Momo." Her father, August, reminded her. Momo just nodded. Music was the one thing her parents didn't give her a choice on. She didn't have The choice to play a sport, she had to play an instrument. She did have a choice on which one though. Violin or Piano. She chose Piano. She didn't mind it, she got good at it over time. She could even play with her eyes closed! Well, it was an exaggeration. She couldn't play with her eyes closed, she could play it without a music sheet sometimes, depending on the song. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star? She could knock it outta the park? Midnight Sonata? No. She would suck at Beethoven if she didn't have a music sheet.

"I have a football game Saturday! Do you wanna come?"

Momo's eyes lit up and she started clapping as if she were four. "Of course! I would love to! Is it American Football? Sorry, I forgot what you play!" Momo laughed.

"No it's what Americans Call "soccer" I guess. It's really fun!"

"Daddy?" Momo made puppy eyes at her father. Funny, her eyes were cat shaped! But her dad had never been able to resist her puppy eyes.

"If his mom can bring you then go ahead! I can't attend, I apologize."

"I'll tell Tensei!"

"Tensei!" Momo cheered. She loved Tensei. He was like a big brother to her. He always made funny jokes and cut up apples for her. What made it better was when he put her on his shoulders and they walked around the Iida house like that until Momo got too scared.

Iida was dropped off and the ride to the Yaoyorozu estate took quite a while. Traffic was an asshole, Momo was on her phone just texting Tenya a few memes. She was happy and just having a bit of fun.

When her father opened the gate she could see Murielle's car. It was a white Acura. That was the only car Murielle drove. They had a few other cars but it was the only one Murielle drove.

Why on earth was Momo's mother home so early?

"Why's mother home? She's usually not here until later."

"Well darling, I'm just as surprised as you." He said, the sound the keys made was new. That might've been because he had added a new keychain on his keys but it was new. The keychain was a picture of her as a baby. He carried it around wherever he went and he had just decided to put it on his keychain.

"C'mon, let's go inside." August's eyes squinted as he got our. He opened the door for Momo and they walked inside together.

Instead of being greeted by Coco and Abalee, their little cats, they were greeted by Murielle. She looked excited, as if she had just gotten a promotion. She gave her family a big hug and left. Not many words at all. Momo just got ready to play her piano. She checked her news app as she walked up to the piano room, trying to see what was new. Right after that, she'd start working.

Dragon Hero rises to Number 9

Black Pepper allergic to soap

Don't touch liquid Nitrogen or this happens...

Alright.

Momo began practicing. Her long and skinny fingers trailed across the keyboard. The melody was amazing, it sounded so nice! Or at least in her opinion. Momo's mother even shouted at her.

"What on earth are you playing? Follow the music sheet!" Murielle shouted. The entire staff was used to her yelling at her like that. They didn't care at all, Murielle wasn't ashamed of it and Momo never got hurt or anything. If anything, it made Momo laugh very hard.

"Hey Coco!" Coco was her cat and her cat only. Abalee was Murielle's cat. She was a present from August for their anniversary. Coco was a gift from her grandmother in Italy. They almost named her Mariposa because the first thing she ate in front of Momo happened to be a butterfly from her Butterfly garden.

Yeah. Momo was seven and cried for a while. They also thought about naming Coco Bentley but decided not to. It made Momo laugh when she thought of shouting "Bentley! Bentley no!" Because Coco ate a butterfly again.

Coco curled up against her leg and purred. Coco was a black and white kitten. Abalee was a older cat and her black hairs, which took up most of her body, were turning grey.

Momo could hear the sound of heels as she played with Coco. She tensed you at first but relaxed again. The door opened up wide, allowing Murielle to walk in. "I don't hear the piano." She laughed before sitting down next to Momo. "I wanna see you play, I know you're amazing at it."

"You just yelled at me for playing bad music." Momo reminded her.

"Because you can do better! I believe in that! Now, play something for me." Murielle smiled.

"Alright..." she sighed, removing Coco from her leg. Coco ran away pretty quickly, she was a cat, and she was bored since she couldn't rub her face against Momo's legs, one of her favorite activities for some reason. Momo laughed before she took a deep breath and got into the proper position. Her fingers grazed the keys she was going to play and she looked at her mother.

Murielle's blue hair and onyx eyes looked gorgeous in the light.

The room was lit by a chandelier, the grounds? The grounds shined. They were marble and it was so shiny that Momo could see her reflection. It was like a mirror. Luckily it wasn't slippery, just polished nicely, that meant Coco was ok!

"Are you going to play?" Murielle asked. She put her fingers on the piano herself. "Do you want me to start for you?" Her tone was sweet despite her words being a bit rude. She kinda overlooked her words just because of the tone of her mother's voice. It wasn't threatening at all. Momo shook her head and started playing. Fingers touched every single key on the left side of the piano. It was in a precise order and because Momo had skinnier fingers, it was easier for her to not mess up or anything.

"That was amazing Momo! Now, practice that two more times and I'll grab you a snack. Apples or... why'd I ask, I know you'll just say peaches." Murielle laughed and rolled her eyes at herself. "I'll be right back." Murielle winked and walked out of the piano room. Their home appeared to be like a chateau. Big, easy to get lost in, and unnecessary, which it was. It had several secret passageways because it was built quite long ago. Instead of being a traditional japanese home, it looked like it could rival the White House.

She started playing more as she waited for her peaches. Her mother was always nice enough to cut it up for her. As if her parents had to check on her every five minutes, her dad walked in.

"Hi!"

"I just bought you something!" August whispered. Momo cocked her head and watched her dad pull out a phone 'charm? Oh it was so cute! It was a tiny boba tea phone charm. That was so sweet of him!

"Thanks! Why'd you get it?"

"I was at the store and I saw it. I know you like boba a lot so I got it for you! I hope you love it!"

"I do! I love it a lot!" She smiled. The acoustics of the room made her excitement echo throughout the room.

"Do you wanna go get boba later?"

"You know I wanna do that! Can we get ramen for dinner?"

"... I dunno. Maybe? You want it? I can ask your mother!" He gave her a toothy grin. Her dad was such a goofball, sometimes she wondered how she had gotten so lucky to have him and her mother as parents. Two amazing people.

"We should go out together! I don't know if mother wants it but it can't hurt to ask!" She smiled.

"With her history of picking dinner, she'll probably just agree!" August gave a cheeky laugh.They always plotted against Murielle like this. It was the only time Momo was happy to be an only child. When her parents couldn't decide what they wanted to eat, they went to her. Majority wins. Some accidents usually happen at Murielle's choice of restaurant. Funny story, once Murielle wanted to go to this really formal place but Momo and August weren't feeling it. Same night the entire restaurant got food poisoning...ok not very funny but it was a story!

Momo and her dad laughed and Murielle walked in the room with Momo's peaches.

"August! You distracted her!" She playfully slapped his shoulder. August pretended to be hurt by his wife's 'assault'. "Here are your peaches my little peach". That was cute. It was basically just saying "my little Momo" since Momo meant peach and all. Quite funny.

"Muriiiii~" August whined like a four year old when he wanted something. Murielle knew his whiny voice by heart and knew he wanted something. Especially when "Muri" was his name for her when they... maybe it would be best not to explain.

August was a 6'5 man while Murielle was 5'9. He looked hilarious when he acted like a child. He also picked Murielle up so she was at eye level sometimes. It was also another way of making fun of her height. They always had this little bickering.

"What do you want Auggie?"

"I just wanna know~ Do you wanna get Ramen tonight?"

"I don't but let me guess, you and Momo plotted against me before I came in?"

August gasped. "How'd you know?! You're so smart!"

"I was right outside the door, and the room? It's a bit, ya know, echoey?" Murielle booped his nose gently.

"Right!" August gasped. He forgot it was echoey.

"I guess we can have it..." she bit her cheek. Murielle wasn't the biggest fan of hot foods, it was one of the reasons that Rei Todoroki, a family friend, got along with her before she was sent to the hospital for whatever reason. Momo had never met Rei but she guessed she never would since she was... in a hospital now. Momo thought that now was a good time to ask if she could go to Tenya's football game, August already said yes, but she always needed both of her parent's approval to do something simple like a sleepover.

"Mother, can I go to Tenya's game? It's Saturday... He asked me and he said Tensei could bring me if you couldn't."

Murielle cocked her head. She always did it when she was thinking. Her blunt cut hair fell to the side, her eyes drifted up to the beautiful ceiling. August looked up as well, only to get distracted by the chandelier.

"Woah~ has it always been that pretty?" He asked. He got distracted quite easily, it was an ongoing joke to keep shiny things away from him.

Murielle was still thinking. Maybe she was just messing with Momo or maybe she was really paranoid about her going to Tenya's game. Well, anything could happen! The ball could hit her in the face, someone could kick her, what if she lost an eye?

"Sure. Go if you want. As long as Tensei is able to bring you home and he's present the entire time." Murielle laughed loudly, her beautiful laugh echoing. She 'lightly' punched Momo's shoulder. Murielle was muscular and didn't know her own strength, she actually hurt Momo a bit.

Murielle and August left the room and left Momo to finish her piano practice.

(Here's the first chapter! I haven't been in the best mood for writing paragraphs and things like that recently. I think updates will be every now and then. Do you guys like this change to August and Murielle? I love it!)
