Muscular's Awakening and Downfall

Quirk awakening, a term to those who unleashed the true potential of their quirk taking it to another level they never knew about before. It is completely impossible for those who train to awaken this, it could only be unlocked if one is in intense stress whether physical or mental. Muscular who just awakened his quirk only did it thanks to the intense mental stress Aki was giving him. Muscular who was always on the top of the food chain was kicked down peg after peg by Aki and was already stressing out from the previous onslaught of attacks finally broke his shell giving him and his quirk a power up.

His Muscles which were red were now a black or dark grayish color. It resembled carbon fiber. Muscular's muscle fibers grew heavier but in return gave him more endurance and strength. "Haha, my power is rising...it's overflowing!" Muscular said crazily. "Now about that free hit? You better be ready and die!" Muscular said slowly, going closer to Aki. His giant figure completely dwarfed Aki. Cocking his fist back Muscular released his devastating power. The ground beneath him buckled, cracks forming, and the wind compressed in front of his fist. Aki who sensed his exponential growth from his awakening only grinned. Now a new round would begin, and she wanted a fight.

Preparing herself, Aki took Muscular's attack head on straight to the face. The wind pressure that Muscular gathered was released, drawing up dust and dirt. Both Aki's and Muscular's visions were impeded by the dust filled area. But Aki could still sense Muscular's energy and he hadn't moved from his spot. "So this is all you amount to? What a shame." Aki said, striking fear into Muscular. He had expected to Kill Aki by beheading her. But even with his newfound power her head was still on her shoulders, she was still nonchalant and she didn't move a single inch. Releasing some of her aura, Aki forced the dust in the surrounding area to disperse revealing both figures.

Aki was unharmed; she didn't even have a scratch on her body, only some dirt that was from the dust. But that was easily removed by Aki. "W-what? H-how?! How are you still alive!" Muscular exclaimed in surprise. He really thought that would kill Aki. "The answer is simple," Aki said, getting closer to muscular, "You are just too weak." She finished grabbing Muscular's wrist that struck her, digging her fingers into breaking it with no chance of recovery. "Now then let's begin your true despair."

"N-no-NOOOO!" Muscular screamed but no one would help him. "I told you, 'You will die without exception and will feel much despair while begging for forgiveness'. Don't you remember? As a wise man once said, "The only ones who should kill, are those who are prepared to be killed." How many have you killed? Well, it doesn't matter but you should learn from these words for whatever time you have left." Aki said with a cold glare and emotionless face. She was done with this fight. It was getting late; it was a good workout.

For the next 10 minutes Aki tortured Muscular breaking his bone, organs and pride. But she would always repair his body with Matter manipulation to top condition to only repeat the process once again. Muscular of course Aki modified his body so that his pain was multiplied dozens of times over. His mind, body and spirit was broken. That once arrogant man was now a broken mess but he was still alive just barely. Putting her hand on Muscular's chest Aki used her Ki to blast a giant hole in his chest killing him instantly. Finishing her business Aki snapped her fingers once again and canceled the alternate dimension she created that looked exactly like the town she and muscular destroyed. Everything faded and Aki returned to the real world. The buildings that were once ruined stood fine like nothing had happened. The craters that formed were filled like nothing happened. Everything was fine like a fight to the death never happened. Muscular's corpse was in the open, no one was around to see the murder. Aki left to go home to wait and see the news in the morning.

Aki walked away with a face that showed nothing. There was no longer a smile that put fear into a cold hearted killer. There was only a face that looked lost in thought. "So I felt nothing when I killed him? Not a single emotion. What a terrible feeling." Aki muttered while walking home looking at the sun that settled a few minutes ago.

Sighing, Aki decided to teleport home, her mood ruined. Appearing in front of her house door she opened it and walked inside. Taking a step inside the house a nice scent went into Aki's nose. She knew exactly what it was. It was one of her top 5 dishes her mother makes. Taking off her shoes, Aki's mood immediately shot up and her pace quickened. Entering the kitchen Aki's mother, Yuuki was in an apron pulling out the dish from the oven. The course meal was ready, the only things needed were the plates and silverware. With a thought all of the plates were prepared like magic. The table was all set and Yuuki turned to Aki. Although Aki dimmed her presence a tad bit, Yuuki could still hear Aki's hurried footsteps from the door.

"Welcome back. How was it?" Yuuki asked, knowing that Aki could wipe the floor of whatever challenges her. "It was good the results should be here sometime within the next two weeks or if the Principal messaged you." Aki answered. "Haha, your intuition is amazing as always." Yuuki said, shaking her head a bit. Placing the tray she was carrying on the table, Yuuki sat down and made small talk with Aki, letting the dish cool down a bit.

"Yes, Nezu did inform me about your results. And was quite surprised about your power. He was so flabbergasted that he didn't know what to say. He also said that your results would be here in a week. But we all know that you got in. The letter would just be for formalities. If you want, I could tell you your results." Yuuki explained to Aki.

"It's not necessary since I already know I got a 100 on the written and at least close to 200 points on the practical." Aki said as if it was a fact. Nodding her head Yuuki let out a small smile. "Well then let's eat." ""Thank you for the food."" They both said as they began digging into the food.

The next day when Aki woke up, she turned on the news to see that Muscular's body was found and was made known to everyone. There were many speculations on what happened to Muscular but there were no clear answers. Some say that it was a new vigilante or villain rising up. But these were just theories while the culprit herself was smiling at her work.

Soon a week passed, and a letter was received telling Aki she was accepted, and her class will be 1-A. She later destroyed the letter that contained a hologram of her results. Of course she watched the recording but she destroyed it right after watching it. Now Aki was wondering how the future will change with the death of Muscular and how everything will play out. Aki couldn't help but get a bit excited.
