Ben stared in shock as his mother and father walked into the lab, the both of them accompanied by a woman in a tuxedo whose face was hidden by her rather large bowler hat.  "M-Mom, D-Dad!? Why are you here!?"

"Shit.." muttered Aizawa. 

"We're here to take you home Ben." said Patrick  "We're going back to America."

"Wh-why!?" Ben asked.  "What's going on?!"

As Ben asked this, he couldn't help but notice his friends acting strangely. Tenya and Izuku for one, seemed to be closing in front of him, as if boxing him in to prevent his parents rushing in or something.  Weird..

"It has come to our attention, that even after we forbidded it, you took the Hero Course Entrance Exam. Even though we explicitly told you only to pursue the business venture." said Tanya. "This cannot stand. You are coming home where we can discuss your proper future."

Ben trembled. He didn't like this one bit.  His parents usually 'visited' him around 2 to 3 times a year. And each time they always found something wrong to nitpick at. But they had been so strict with him as a very young child, he knew that this tone of voice meant he was either getting the paddle or being forced into the basement without any meals for 2 days again.  

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they frightened him. 

"Ben is here as an Emergency Provisional Hero." said Aizawa. "Whether or not he goes with you is currently his choice. You can't force him."

"Tsk, and they call you a teacher?" said Patrick with a stern glare at Aizawa. "We fed and clothed this boy, groomed him for a proper future as the business man to inherit the Tennyson Industry. You have no right to tell us how to raise him or what we can't make him do."

Patrick glared at Ben. "Come son. We will discuss your failings on the jet."

Ben lifted up a trembling voice. He wasn't going to let these jerks dictate his life anymore. "I.. I'm not going."

"What?" said Tanya. "Young man, this had better be a very poorly made joke.."

"It's no joke! I.. I tried the Hero Entrance exam and I passed! And I think.. I think I could get really good at it!" Ben said. "So I'm sorry Dad.. but.. I don't intend to inherit the Hospital Chain any time soon! You'll just have to give the company keys to the city to somebody else!"

Patrick glared at Ben, remaining silent. But the vein throbbing near his forehead told a different story. He was in fact seething in silent fury, the same type of fury the usually predated a major hit with a belt. 

Ben actually flinched slightly in reaction. But he held his ground.  "You can't make me dad! I've made up my mind on what I want to do!"

Aizawa grinned at Ben. "Hmph. Well you've heard him. The boy knows what he wants, surely as parents you'd be understanding... right?"

Aizawa turned to glare at Patrick and Tanya as he said this. 

"Ah, I get it." Murmured Pamela, folding her arms. "Aizawa, am I to understand that these people aren't good news?"

Aizawa remained silent. 

"Well then I'll kick them out myself. No need for a simple escort out of the building." said Pamela as she pounded a fist into her palm. 

"W-wait!" Ben exclaimed. "Hold on! I mean sure they're not the nicest people, but they're still my parents!"

"Yeah, it's not like they're my dad or anything." said Kevin. "Just escort em out, no need to get violent. I mean I know that's rich coming from me, but still."

"That's right, Kevin still doesn't know." said Izuku. 

"Know what?" Kevin growled. "What do you know that you ain't telling me Midoriya?"

"Tsk, this is getting us nowhere." said Patrick. "I didn't want to have to do this, but you've given me no choice.  Ben, I'm sure you're aware of Mrs. Jiro's predicament, your dear friend Kyoka's mother?"

Ben froze. "H-how did you know?"

"I'm a doctor, world renowned, it's my business to know about Rare Diseases such as Jacob's Quirk Sickness."

"I-I heard about that!" said Izuku. "Years ago, a villain named Pandemic used his quirk to spread a deadly virus over a population. Those who were near him died, but those who were near out of range survived with a disease that killed in 2 years without the regular administration of a special kind of drug that slowed the disease's progression till it was completely stagnant. Wait, Mrs. Jiro has that?"

"Yes, and the ones who produced and distributes the drugs to this day are of my company." said Patrick "Distributed for free I might add. However, I might be tempted to start adding a price.. of say.. 500,000 yen?"

"That's almost Five Thousand US dollars a week!" Ben said. "They could never afford that!! Even as musicians, that's beyond what's even possible!!"

Patrick smirked. "The research on the drugs that keep the victims of Pandemic alive is purely charity, after all, it doesn't affect nearly as many people as cancer or Corona Virus or even the common flu. Nobody would look twice even if this was on the news. After all, the Jiro Family are big name brand magicians, am I right? All would assume they can pay such ludicrous prices."

"You are sick!" Tenya growled, sweat pouring down his face. "Such blackmail is unforgivable.."

"If it is to care for our son, we will do anything, that is what is being a good parent is about, weighing the sacrifices." said Tanya. 

Pamela glared furiously at Tanya. "Ehhh? I really want to punch this woman Shoto, can I?"

"Wait.." Aizawa murmured. 

 Ben bowed his head. "O-okay I get it. I'm coming."

Patrick nodded.

"No Ben!" Izuku said. 

"You can't!" Tenya said. "Think about your dream!"

"My dream is nothing if people get hurt because of it!" Ben said. "Don't stop me guys, this is my choice."

"Is it?" Kevin murmured.

"Huh?" Ben said.

"WHAAAAM!!" everyone stared in shock as Kevin punched Ben straight in the jaw. 

"SO DID ALL THE CRAP YOU SAY TO ME ON THE DAY OF THE EXAM.. MEAN NOTHING!?" roared Kevin, his eyes flashing furiously. 

Ben staggered up, clutching jaw, and staring at Kevin with near disbelief. "K-Kev."

"How dare you!" growled Tanya, her eyes mixed with fury. "Come along boy, we'll be sure to file a grandiose lawsuit against this pig!"

"Kevin." Izuku said, almost in a whisper.

"L-Levin, that was out of line." said Tenya. 

"It's true, your Real Mom's life is on the line at this point, thanks to this asshole who dares to think he's anything like a dad." said Kevin. "But but would Jiro think if she learned you gave up your dream for these nincompoops!?"

Ben's eyes widened as he thought about these words.

Mr. and Mrs. Jiro along with Kyoka all had been overjoyed when they saw he had passed the new Entrance Exam. Mrs. Jiro had even gone as far as to buy a cake in celebration.  However.."

"This is a life on the line we're talking about." Ben said. 

"If a life is in Danger.. SAVE it... if life that is in danger would prevent you from saving more lives, then save that life first, so you can save the others!" said Kevin. "Sound familiar?"

"That quote, is from the Sumo Slammer hero! Ishiyama! He said that line after he saved some hostages from a villain who was using them as a shield while he attempted to blow up the White House!" said Izuku.  

"You look up to all these heroes, and you don't even bother to think about the philosophies they passed down so we could properly do our jobs?!" Kevin growled. "Well I'll at least follow them for you even if you're too stupid to use it yourself!! I'll save your mom! THEN I'll save you!! By beating your ass and dragging you back here! How's that!?"

"This kid." Pamela said, her eyes sparkling brightly as she smiled. "Oho, Shoto you got some good ones this year."

"We can save your mom without having to do what these assholes say!" Kevin said. "Think about where we are damnit!!"

Ben gave a start as he slowly turned to look at Pamela. 

Pamela smirked back at Ben. "Well, I'll be the first to admit, I definitely could reproduce their drug any time if I wanted to. Of course I haven't till now cause it's patented, however.."

Pamela shrugged. "Not like the law can get me if I'm not selling it commercially, am I right?"

Aizawa sighed. "You don't tend to know how the law works, but at least currently in Japan that's how it works at the moment."

Ben smiled. "Heheh. Sorry Kev, looks like you had to wake me up a bit huh? What a pathetic Hero I would've turned out to be."

"Don't be ridiculous. Even the good heroes do stupid crap sometimes." said Kevin. 

Ben glared back at Patrick and Tanya. "Thanks but no thanks, I'm not going home, cause I'm already home! Even if Doctor Pamela can't make the drug, I'll find a way to save Mrs. Jiro myself! Because if I go home with you.. there's no way I can save anybody else to begin with!"

Aizawa smiled and stepped up. "You heard him, he made his choice, which means if you won't comply, I'm free to legally use force."

"Teehee, that's the Shoto I know and love." said Pamela. "I may be retired, but my Hero's License remains legal and ready to pound these assholes."

Patrick bowed his head. "What a stubborn brat we've raised. Hmph. Very well, Shock Lock, I leave him to you."

The woman in the bowler hat smirked widely. "Oh, I'll enjoy this.."

The woman's tuxedo shredded to pieces  to reveal a goth lolita style black dress with red striped knee socks.  Her bowler hat flew into the air, revealing a beautiful face with rectangular pupils like an octopus or cuttlefish and orange hair that had curls on the end shaped like tentacles. 

She twirled a black parasol and rested it on her shoulder as she blew a kiss at the group, jabbing a thumb at a yellow Number 2 emblazoned on her shoulder. "Shock Lock of the Fatal Five, a very good day to you!"

Aizawa and Pamela's eyes both widened.

"Number 2!?" said Izuku. "That means she's stronger than Komodo Dragon?"

"I don't get it! Mom.. Dad? Why are you here with one of the Mobsters?" Ben asked, his eyes wide. "What's going on!?"

"Stay back all of you kids!" Aizawa growled, putting a hand up. "Ben I'm sorry, I'll explain everything when I have the chance. But right now your freedom as a hero is in danger, and as a teacher I can't allow you to be taken."

Aizawa put up a hand and dragged down his goggles over his eyes as his irises began to glow an intense red. "Against a villain like this, I'm going to have to get serious."

"Hmph, I might be a bit rusty, but I'll back you up, that  suitable Shoto-kun?" said Pamela, licking her lips.

"Do whatever you want."

"From you that might as well be a clear cut invitation!" said Pamela in delight. "Ufufufu, just like old times!"

Pamela looked at Ben now. "Watch closely Ben-chan! I'm about to show you exactly how I incorporate my linguistics into the management of my power! Think of this as a special lecture for your internship! Hmm?"

Shock Lock laughed. "A listers Eraser Head and Morphousand! My my, I'm lucky! The looks of pain when I beat your hides raw will be a perfect Edition to my Collection."

"Aizawa Sensei! We'll back you up!" Izuku exclaimed. 

"No, I give you permission to fight back, but only in defense." growled Aizawa. "Shock Lock is a known Hero Killer just like Komodo Dragon. Every hero that has ever faced her has always died without an opportunity to provide any intel on her power. In case we find ourselves losing here, you need to be ready to get out of here as quick as you can! Midoriya, if you have to use one hundred percent of your power in your legs to do that, I give you full permission! Ben! Be ready to turn into XLR8 or Jetray at a moment's notice!"

"Oh how cute, they think that even the juicy little children will get away." said Shock Lock. "I can kill them too right?"

"They are of no consequence to us, do what you like." said Tanya. "Just be sure to leave our rebellious son alive, or Driscoll and Overlord will scold us. "

Ben's eyes welled up with tears. "J-just what was I to you? WHAT THE HELL WAS I TO YOU!?"

Ben made to move forward but Tenya grabbed him by the arm. "NO! Tennyson! Don't. The situation is complicated, but you can't afford to let him rile you up! Let your guard down and you'll get captured easily! Remember, that woman there is even stronger than Komodo who you needed to put your life on the line just to come close to beating!"

"That sweet little brother of Ingenium's right little boy." said Shock Lock. "Don't waste your strength, your quirk was cultivated for the sake of Overlord-sama after all.. teeheehee. Oh how I wish I could add you to my collection as well."

"Enough talk!" Aizawa growled. 

"FOOM!" suddenly, Shock Lock disappeared in a burst of speed, wind surging from where she had been moments ago. 

"She moved!?" growled Aizawa. Had she sensed that he was using his Quirk on her and avoided his line of sight that fast?

Shock Lock landed behind Aizawa, as massive powerful muscular octopus tentacles morphed out of her hair, all of them at least as thick as large tree trunks as they slashed out at Aizawa at blitz speed. 

"KAPOOOOWW!" Pamela threw off her lab coat and jumped in between Aizawa and Shock Lock, her arms suddenly morphing into large black scaled shields, growing out of her arms, deflecting the powerful tentacles with a shockwave. 

"Ehehehehe, not on my watch!" said Pamela.

"Hmph, Adaptation quirk, annoying.." said Shock Lock. 

"SHOTO!" Pamela yelled, ducking as Aizawa whirled around, his eyes glowing underneath his goggles. 

Shock Lock quickly ducked down, hiding behind Pamela, immediately avoiding Aizawa's line of sight again. "Eraser Head's the most troublesome one now, I'll deal with him first."

Shock Lock kept low to the ground, dashing at vicious speed around Pamela, massive tentacles swirling out of her hair, curling their end so they looked like fists before lashing out multiple high speed punches at Aizawa. 

"She's trying to take Shoto out first, smart." grunted Pamela. "But if she thinks she's faster she's got a major problem."

Pamela's legs suddenly morphed into slender lizard-like green limbs with springs where the toes should be, causing her to kick off at immense speed, creating a sonic boom as she broke the sound barrier and ended up in front of Shock Lock again and formed another giant shield with her arms. 

"POWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOWPOW!!"

Multiple shockwaves radiated off the black scales as Shock Lock unleashed her tentacle punches, and the glass of multiple windows nearby shattered from the sheer power of the attacks. 

"Those tentacles are strong." Said Aizawa. 

"Yeah, but nothing I can't evolve against!" growled Pamela. "Ready those eyes of yours, I'll try and get you an opening."

"Zzzzt!" Aizawa blinked as he noticed a few electric sparks jumping off Pamela's skin. "What was that?"

"Probably nothing, she crashed through one of my machines just now, but my body automatically changes to be rubberlike to counteract stuff like that." Pamela growled. "Lets DO THIS!"

As Pamela lunged in for her attack Ben watched in awe, as a multitude of transformations switched fluidly before his eyes. 

Pamela's arms turned into massive muscular gorilla arms as she hurled out a multitude of high speed power punches, which Shock Lock blocked with her tentacles. 

But right after the punches ended, in mere milliseconds, Pamela's body had suddenly turned blue and stretchy like rubber, stretching her body to weave between Shock Lock's tentacles like a snake, before suddenly morphing back in mere milliseconds after firing off a massive heat ray from her eyes. 

Shock Lock ducked under the heat ray as Aizawa suddenly somersaulted over Pamela, latching one of his bandage-like bands around a ceiling lamp while focusing his gaze on Shock Lock. 

Shock Lock hurled a roundhouse kick in that instant at a table filled with vials of tentacles, that all splashed towards Aizawa, who was forced to jump back, stopping the progress of his Quirk. 

"SHOTO LOOK OUT!" roared Pamela. 

"UGH!!" Aizawa was sent flying by a tentacle slam and he crashed into a nearby wall, rubble and concrete falling around him. 

"AIZAWA SENSEI!"  the students ran over to their teacher.

"STAY BACK!" Aizawa roared, right as Shock Lock dove in at him, licking her lips with bloodthirst. 

"Those eyes, they'll be my trophy." Shock Lock whispered lovingly. 

Suddenly, powerful spikes grew out of Pamela's arms and shot at Shock Lock like missiles, forcing her to duck away as the black spikes ripped through the lab with enough force to puncture holes through titanium. 

Pamela then puffed up her cheeks and breathed a massive fire ball at Shock Lock, forcing her to leap into the air and land a great distance away down the hallway of the lab facilities. 

"All my darling experiments, set back.." Pamela said with a sigh as she stared forlornly at the plants that had been growing clothing items now burning in a blaze that was quickly put out by the ceiling sprinklers.  "You'll pay for that Octopus girl.."

"I suggest you two stand back." said Shock Lock, looking back at Patrick and Tanya. "Things are about to get hairy. Eraser Head won't be a problem now, however that woman's quite powerful. It wouldn't be a far shot to say she'd waste Endeavor in a head on match at the very least."

"Sensei! Are you alright?" said Tenya, looking over Aizawa. 

"It's nothing I can't shake off." said Aizawa. "It seems she only managed to brush me-.. AGGGHHH!!"

As soon as Aizawa moved his arm forward, blood exploded from the back of the arm. 

Everyone stared, shocked as for a moment droplets of blood hung in the air, and then splattered to the floor. 

"What just happened!?" Ben said. 

"Oh that would be my quirk's power." said Shock Lock with a tinkling laugh. "Ufufufufu. I'm a poisonous Octopus see?  Touching my tentacles causes poison to seep in through your pores, locking your body in place. If you even try to move from that spot, or if your allies move you themselves, your blood, which has been locked in place, will remain in the exact spot I've frozen it, going as far as to burst from your very veins just to remain in the exact spot."

"So if Sensei moves, his blood will automatically burst from his body in an attempt to stay where it is." said Izuku. 

"Damn that's a troublesome move alright." said Kevin. "But why isn't Pamela affected?"

"Obviously.." Aizawa panted as struggled to keep consciousness. "Pamela's body has never experienced a power like that before, so she's already unconsciously adapted an immunity to it."

"Try and keep still!" Ben said. "Pamela, we need to call a hospital or Aizawa Sensei's going to lose too much blood!"

"No need.." Pamela said as she thrust out her hand, and multiple bandage like tendrils flew out and wrapped around Aizawa's arm. "These are healing regenerative bandages made of my own cells, they'll do the trick. "

Ben just couldn't help but be blown away. The way she had fluidly changed into the exact power she needed at such speed, she didn't need to time to think much at all.

And this was with 4000 different abilities to choose from.

However, this was not the foremost thing in Ben's mind at the moment. 

Ben glared at Patrick and Tanya, trembling with fury and betrayal. "You guys were always harsh with me, but at the least I always thought that was just because you wanted me to live up to your idea of what a person should be, even though it was the wrong view in my eyes. Tell me right now.. what is this all about!? Why are you trying to kidnap me all of sudden after years of ignoring me!?"

"Simple." said Patrick without a hint of remorse. "We had you because Overlord and The Forever Knights wished for us to have you. You are the result of a Quirk Marriage nothing more. Your purpose in life, was always to have your power serve the bright future of this world under the just rule of the Knights of Old.. "

Ben froze, his arms went limp. "What?"

"At first, we had you serve our interest for forming an heir to take over my legacy, my company and industry, because when you were born it was soon apparent that you were Quirkless." said Patrick. "However, it appears you were a late bloomer, and the quirk you've manifested is not only powerful, but it's potential spreads into the same realm of incredible might as possibly even the Symbol of Peace himself.. the false god known as All Might."

Patrick held up a hand. "Ben, I know you don't understand now, but this is all being done for your benefit, so your vast power, those 10 creatures of yours, can serve as sentinels to the Greater Good, just as Shock Lock has.."

"Shock Lock.. has..?" Ben said, looking slowly at the woman whose hair was now a swirling mass of giant tentacles.

"Oh yes." said Shock Lock, twirling her parasol and smirking. "I'm a member of the Forever Knights as well. I was raised through a Quirk Marriage just like you and rehabilitated into a glorious weapon for the new order! Don't worry little brother, there are plenty more like us. You'll find a glorious family just.. like.. you! Far better than that silly pitiful bunch of musicians and that stupid girl with the headphone ears."

"Ben! Don't listen to her!" growled Izuku. "Those guys.. aren't your real parents! You do have family who care about you!"

"SHUT UP!" Ben roared.

"B-Ben!" Izuku stammered.

"No.. you misunderstand!" Ben growled. "I'm saying shut up, because you don't need to tell me twice. These guys, I disown em! As far as I'm concerned, they're going to jail with all the other villains!"

Ben held up the Omnitrix as it began to glow green with power. "I'll take these guys to the cleaners myself!"

Patrick closed his eyes, then he began to chuckle.  

Shock Lock sighed. "Uh oh.. I was hoping the beast wouldn't get roused, but now you've gone and done it.."

"I see.." said Patrick. "Shock Lock, finish off the Morphousand woman, I'll personally see to it Aizawa dies, at least then perhaps my idiot son will lose his rebellious phase and come quietly."

Shock Lock sighed. "Very well."

Patrick dove forward, moving at such astounding speed, that a shockwave exploded from where he had been moments before as Tanya sighed with little emotion and shook her head. "Fathers can be so temperamental."

"NOT SO FAST!" roared Pamela, lashing out a hand which turned into a large armored dome, meant to catch Patrick. 

"CRAAAASSSSH!" Patrick smashed straight through the armored catcher, shattering the near impenetrable armor to pieces. 

"Th-that adaptation was made for catching volatile explosives!" stammered Pamela. "The hell!!?"

"PROTECT AIZAWA!" roared Ben as he slammed a hand down on the Omnitrix. 

There was a flash of green light as Humungousaur roared into existence, aiming a massive powerful punch straight at Patrick.

"KABOOOOOOOMMMM!!" Patrick threw out his own punch, and their fists met in mid air, throwing out another volatile shockwave.. 

"Wh-wha!?" Humungousaur exclaimed as his fist and Patrick's fist trembled, pushing against each other, neither giving way.

"So this is the creature you used to match Komodo Dragon." said Patrick as his normally stoic eyes flashed ominously. "What glorious physical might.  With this sort of sheer physicality, even Gigantomachia would be hard pressed to defeat that form. So you called it Humungousaur? A fitting name, it does look like a dinosaur whichever way you look at it. However, what it gains in immense physical power, it loses out in speed."

Patrick disappeared in a burst of speed, and kicked Humungousaur in the jaw, sending the powerful alien flying and smashing into the floor with another shockwave. 

"He.. he countered Humungousaur!?" Izuku said. "His power's off the charts!"

"The word Saurus or Saur in Latin means Lizard. Which means your creature's literal name would be Big Lizard. In the end, before the power of the Fatal Five, that's all you ever amounted to being." said Patrick as he landed casually and adjusted his collar. "But under the tutorship of the master, it can become a monster that razes nations."

"RESPIRO BURST!!"

"SMAAAASH!!"

"CRUSHING HAMMER!"

Izuku in Full Cowl and Tenya, with his engines blazing like rockets, and Kevin, his arm now a large concrete mallet, all landed a combined blow on Patrick. 

When the dust cleared, Patrick stood there, the concrete mallet, Izuku's fist, and Tenya's leg all unmoving, as if he were an indestructible rock that would never move. his body completely unharmed. 

However, his suit and shirt had been shredded to reveal a multitude of bulging muscles and old battle scars that were not from the current battle.

Izuku's eyes widened with horror as he saw, burned onto Patrick's right pectoral, a Number 1. "Y-you're... one of them!?"

Patrick sighed as he took off his glasses, not that he ever needed them to begin with, his eyes now turning fierce. "Hmmm, you've ruined my perfectly tailored jacket, now that won't do, even the tie has been ripped to shreds. It seems All Might's heir needs a lesson in humility.. fool who dared to think he could hold the power of One for All.."
