C9 Naming the "quirk"

While they were discussing about the baby's quirk, their attention was grabbed by a loud growling sound, coming from the said baby.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pre-occupied in their conversation, the doctor, as well as the parents, failed to notice the shifting of their son's body. As the child opened his eyes, he looked around to see that he was in a white hospital bed. He could also see his parents discussing with another person who by the looks of it was a doctor. He was about to call them when he suddenly felt incredibly weak as his stomach growled loudly.

Both the parents as well as the doctor suddenly turned to look at him. He was suddenly crushed into a hug by his mother who came running towards him. "Thank god, you're alright. Is it hurting anywhere? Do you feel uncomfortable?" she asked in a loving and caring manner unable to see that he was having a hard time breathing.

"Um...mom, you're crushing me." he said barely as he tapped his mother's hands. She quickly let go as she heard that, "Oh, I'm so sorry. Are you alright?" "It's okay mom, I'm fine just a little bit of tiredness and extreme hunger."

"It must be because of your quirk awakening. It must have taken a lot of your energy." the doctor said, quickly preventing any misunderstanding. "Indeed, the same happened to me when I first awakened my quirk. Rest for a bit, we'll bring you some food. Let's leave the kid to rest for a bit. Let's go." his father said as he took his wife along with him followed behind by the doctor.

When they were finally out of the room, Raph wanted to try his quirk but he was very spent and tired. If he used Elixir's powers, he would definitely become unconscious. After all, elixir would fall into long bouts of coma whenever he overused his powers. However, he instinctively knew the extent of his powers. He could feel that he should be able to heal minor wounds and cuts. Heck, he could feel that he could grow entire limbs and body organs but he wouldn't be able to. He would need to have proper knowledge about human anatomy, biology, physiology, and all that stuff, which sucked because it's like having the most delicious food you can imagine right in front of you but you don't have any mouth to eat it.

With his new powers, he felt a plethora of things, for instance, he could sense where all individuals around him were. He could sense their life-force and as a positive side effect, he could also sense their strength. There were so many other things he felt like he could do and given enough time, he could.

He also wanted to try using the dimensional forces but he didn't want to end up flooding the whole hospital in bright light which might cause a lot of problems. He was thankful that he could at least practice controlling them in an isolated area with the whole treehouse given to him as a present.

As he was having his internal conflict, his parents and the doctor arrived with food for him. When he was handed the food, he didn't even look at what he was, he dumped them into his mouth all at once.

(A/n: Who am I kidding, he isn't an anime character who can fit all the food in his mouth as if it's a black hole. Oh wait, he is one now.)(Ugh, the Chandler Bing inside of me is trying to come out.)

"So...how are you feeling now?" "I'm fine, the stomach's full but still a bit of tiredness." He replied. "Your quirk might be very energy-consuming in the future." His doctor said. 'Yeah, you got that right.'

"In these cases, I would usually tell children to use them moderately until they grow physically but in your case, I would suggest you try to use it as little as possible. If what I diagnosed is correct, your quirk has to do with lifeforce manipulation. And that might be quite dangerous needless to say. Although, it would be good to know its limits." his doctor said in a worried but exciting tone.

Mc's POV~

'Looks like, he thinks it's lifeforce manipulation which is very dangerous and fantastic but it is just one facet of my quirk. If they know that my quirk is literal genetics manipulation, it wouldn't bode well for me. If they find out that I could touch a person and give them cancer or cure them of it, I think I'd be in a crazy scientist's lab right now.

I mean, lifeforce manipulation might make someone live eternally young or die without a moment's notice but genetics manipulation, now that's crazy. I could manipulate a person's genetics to make him an entirely different species. Heck, I think I would be able to even give someone a quirk that is if I understand the human body properly. This lack of knowledge is really crippling my powers. I really need to study and train very hard from now on. I should have used these four years to study up on that. I'm such an idiot.'

"Hello, are you in there?" I was quickly brought out of my stupor by the doctor as he wove his hand in front of me. "Um yes, you were saying..." I replied a little embarrassed.

"Does he do this often?" the doctor asked my father in a whisper. "He tends to do that a lot. He has an extra active mind." my dad replied in his normally loud voice.

"Ahem...anyway, your quirk seems to work a lot like your mother's but while she controls flora you control lifeforce. Lifeforce is a..." "It's alright doctor, you don't have to explain it to me. I have an idea about what it is, a very clear one." I quickly cut him off. He looked at my parents in a helpless manner. They just shrugged in response.

"Well, since you know what it is. Let's just say, you seem to have the quirk to manipulate it to your will. I don't know what other things you can do about it. Further tests might be required unless you don't want to. So,..." he said waiting for my response.

"So what? Oh...I don't think we need to do further tests." I finished his sentence thinking that it would be a bit of a bothersome, in many ways than one. "So what are you going to name it; is what I wanted to ask." he said in an unfazed manner.

"I think I'll go with Elixir." I said in an equally unfazed manner while internally thinking, 'Quite a good name if I do say so myself. It gives a basic view into what it might do but doesn't reveal the whole information.'
