[1200 Hours - Twenty thousand feet above the North Pacific Ocean]

It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, the sky was clear, and the ocean was glistening in the sunlight like it was made out of millions of sapphires. Pearly white clouds peaked over the horizon where the two great blues met, creating the illusion of distant mountains miles high. There was never a day that looked more beautiful than this. But it was anything but peaceful.

*BOOM!!!*

*WHOOSH!!!*

Two unidentified aircraft broke the sound barrier as they blurred through the sky, streaking the blue sky with thin trails of white. They didn't move naturally like any sort of normal jets. With loud shockwaves, they instantly changed direction with turns so sharp and quick that they resembled lightning. They two aircraft met in the air.

*CLASH!*

A massive amount of sparks shot in every direction like a multicolored firework as the two aircraft bounced away from each other. They shot towards each other once again.

*CLANG!*

More sparks rained down were blown away by the sudden changes in pressure, increasing their brightness for a moment before burning out as they fell towards the crystal sea. The two aircraft closed together as they hurtled towards the water's surface. They smashed together again, but it didn't seem to be just one collision. Instead, there was a multitude fiery explosions full of sparks as metal clanged and shrieked in complaint.

*BOOM!!!*

The two aircraft suddenly parted just before they came into contact with the water. The sonic boom on the surface turned the surrounding sea into a fountain of foam and sparkling mist. It was in this moment we could get a clear look at the two aerial combatants, only to discover that the two aircraft were not in fact planes of any kind. They were mechs.

Mechs with swords.

One of the mechs was more dark themed, dark grey with purple highlights. The symbol on one of its two metallic wings betrayed its identity.

It was Starscream.

A Decepticon.

The other mech was of a similar build, but did not have any color. Just the dull grey and black of various metals that it's body was made of. The main difference between the mechs was that the one lacking paint was the only one with a cockpit.

[Inside the Cockpit]

Koto : "LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!"

Koto hit one of the various buttons lining the console of the cockpit, all various shapes, sizes, and colors.

Koto : "Alfred! Play that one song from Space Jam!"

A radio buzzed.

Alfred : "*Sigh*...playing 'Are You Ready For This' from Space Jam."

Koto : "Oh yeah....y'all ready for this!"

Koto took the two joystick controllers and lurched them forward.

[Outside the Cockpit]

The mech launched itself at the Decepticon, shooting out various rockets that mechanically grew in size till they were as big as unicorns as they flew in the air, streaming multicolored flames and smoke from their exhaust. There was even some glitter.

The Decepticon tried to block Koto's attack as well as the rockets. But it couldn't do both. So it took Koto's attack head on, locking it with a blade and an arm. It trapped Koto to use him as a shield against the incoming barrage of rainbow rockets.

*BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM*

All the rockets hit the back of Koto's mech, knocking him and the Decepticon down towards the sea. Koto's mech grabbed the Decepticon and brought the sword above his head. Using his mech's thrusters to add to the momentum, he brought his sword down. And for the cherry on top, he activated his quirk.

Koto : "Bankai."

Koto brought his sword down which, in that instant, had grown several times it's own size and let off a shockwave of bright radiation as it glowed. The Decepticon at the last second had split into 5 different flying vehicles, dodging Koto's sword. But they could not out run nor endure the explosion that came afterwards.

*BOOOOOOOOOM!!!*

The sword hit the surface of the ocean, instantly evaporating the water for hundreds of meters around. A large glowing dome grew in size till it's height scraped against the sky. A ring of clouds revealed the shockwave and flew ahead of the blast, which was now slowly turning into a mushroom cloud. Tree's on islands hundreds of miles away had their leaves stripped and there trunks uprooted. Thankfully they were uninhabited.

And the Decepticon...what Decepticon? There is no Decepticon...anymore...

After about fifteen minutes, the mushroom cloud slowly started to dissipate. And Koto? What happened to him? Well...

________________________________________________________________________________

[Koto's POV]

Alfred : "Sir. The mech's shielding has been disintegrated. Circuitry is non-functional. There are several major leaks in the hull that is causing it to fill with the corrosive salt water. We are several hundred meters beneath the surface of the Pacific Ocean. Any oxygen supply is rapidly being displaced by more water. And we are sinking...very fast I might add."

I see I got myself in a bit of a pickle. The mech is trashed and I have my very own kiddie pool in the cockpit. It's to dark to see anything outside the mech. The only thing that seemed to be working were Alfred's comms and the disco lights I installed inside the mech.

But that's OK! I have a hammer and the power of memes!

________________________________________________________________________________

[America - Secret Military Coastal Base]

A room full of military personnel went into a panic. Everybody rushed to their stations as alarms blared.

A man in a general's uniform stormed into the room.

General : "Can someone please tell me. What! The F***! Happened?!?"

A person ran from their computer and saluted the general.

Operator #1 : "Some sort of nuclear disturbance, sir!"

General : "Sort of nuclear!?! The windows blew out and we can't even see the damn cloud of whatever decided to go f****** BOOM!"

Another called out from behind a monitor.

Operator #2 : "I'm getting readings of massive electromagnetic disturbances in the North Pacific. Radiation is spiking, yet minimal. Nothing like a normal nuclear warhead...Sir."

General : "Forget it. Just bring up the satellite feed."

A large screen lit up in the air. It showed the surface of the earth, with the Pacific Ocean in the middle. The ocean had these small ripples emanating from the center of the ocean and heading towards the coastline.

General : "Now we got tsunamis too?!? *BLEEP* Someone sound the alarm and evacuate any civilians in the area."

Operator #1 : "Sir! There are no civilians in the area. Sir!"

General : "This is a secret government facility! Of course there are no civilians in the area!"

Operator #1 : "Sir, yes sir!"

General : "Wait. What's that? zoom in on that white streak."

An operator hit a few keys and the satellite camera zoomed in and locked on a fast moving object moving ahead of the tsunamis. It was heading towards the US.

General : "What the hell is that? Another nuke or somethin'?"

Operator #5: "Seems to be some form of aircraft."

General : "Some random aircraft appearing right after a nuclear even? Coincidence? I think not! Set some birds on his *ss. We can't just let this guys just ding dong ditch us."

Operator #7: "On it sir. Fighter jets are inbound."

________________________________________________________________________________

[Inside the cockpit - 500 meters above the ocean]

Alfred : "Sir. There are a pair of fighter jets heading towards our location. Caution is advised."

Koto nodded then thought for a moment.

Koto : "You know what? I'm tired of running away from my problems. It's time I face the consequences! Just like you said!"

Alfred : "Sir. That is not what I meant when I said to be mature and take responsibility for your own mistakes. To clean up your own messes."

Koto made a frowny face.

Koto : "Awwww. Fine."

Alfred : "Thank you."

Koto was silent for a moment, then gave a huge grin.

Alfred : "Your not thinking what the nanites in your brain are telling me your thinking?"

Koto grinned even wider. A childish crazy look in his eyes.

Alfred : "Oh dear. I would not advise that, sir."

Koto got out his hammer.

Alfred : "Sir. Even if you managed to upgrade the ship into something more...entertaining, you would still need to take proper precautions to the reactions it would cause around the globe."

Koto activated his quirk.

Alfred : "No! Don't do it! It's too risky! We have had enough fun for today already!"

Koto : "I'm GONNA WRECK IT!"

Alfred : "Yes."

Koto brought the hammer down on the mech's control console. Suddenly everything was arcing with electricity as the mech seemed to transform inside and out. Panels were moving and shifting forms. Buttons were blinking multiple colors rapidly while changing shape, sizes, and positions around the seat of the cockpit. After a while, it settled.

Koto was laughing.

Koto : "Now that that's over with, it's time we gave the local governments of earth..."

Koto typed something into a keypad. The mech was changing shape again. The entire mech was rearranging it's parts like an actual transformer. It's arms and legs were folding in on the center. the mech was slowly taking shape into something more flat and roundish.

Koto : "...something to worry about. Heheheheheheheh."

Alfred : "You...you're despicable."

Koto : "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

[1500 meters above the pacific ocean - Fighter Jets]

The sun glinted off of the shiny windshield of the two flying jets. They soared high above the water, gradually increasing in speed until they both broke through the sound barrier with two thunderclaps. After about five minutes, one fighter pilot radioed the other.

*radio crackle*

Fighter Pilot #1 : "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for flying with American Airlines. Today's sky is bright and sunny with not a cloud in sigh and a nice breeze pointed towards the southeast. I'm your pilot, Johnny Kernigan, and our copilot is..."

*radio crackle*

Fighter Pilot #2 : "...Brian Fisher."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Briaaaaaaaaaan Fisheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrr!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "You know they record our flights, right?"

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Oh...oh s***."

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Yeah."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "........Ladies and gentlemen, please make sure you listen to the flight attendant and keep your seatbelts fastened at the proper times during the flight. If you look down the aisle you can see her bringing a cart full of peanuts. No, we do not have chocolate. But we also have some chips and drinks. Try not to make a mess. Speaking of messes, the bathroom. Please keep the bathroom toilet seat cle-"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Bro. Shut up"

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Ok..."

Fighter Pilot Brian : "..."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "..."

Fighter Pilot Brian : "..."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "So...What are we looking for exactly?"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Someone let off some kind of bomb a little too close to base, so we are going to say hello."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Ohhh. Hey down there. Is that them?"

Brian looked at his instruments.

Fighter Pilot Brian : "It's just a cloud."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "A cloud huh. A cloud moving against the wind? The only cloud within 500 miles? On a day that's supposed to be clear and sunny?"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Hey, you're right. Let's check it out."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Roger."

*radio crackle*

The two jets descended towards the small cloud moving above the ocean. As they approached, the cloud seemed to stop and hover just above the ocean. The pilots circled the cloud.

*radio crackle*

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Uhhh, that is definably not a normal cloud."

Fighter Pilot Brian : "No s***."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Ill just, uh, shoot some flares at it. Just in case."

Johnny pulled the jet away from the cloud, then pulled it back towards it. As he passed, he released a couple flares at it. They disappeared into the cloud.

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "Bullseye!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Wait! Somethings happening...is it...glowing?"

The cloud was indeed beginning to glow. It pulsed a eerie green color, then blue. Suddenly the cloud began to disperse rapidly, revealing a large UFO. It was 3 times the size of the fighter jets.

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "My god...I knew it...I knew they were real..."

Fighter Pilot Brian : "This is Bravo Bird 1 to Delta Command! We have made contact! I repeat we have made contact with an unidentified aerial vehicle! It appea-"

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "ITS AN ALIEN SPACESHIP!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "It appears to be some sort of fictional spacecraft."

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "ITS AN ALIEN SPACESHIP!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "Permission to engage?"

________________________________________________________________________________

[Inside the UFO - Command Deck]

Koto : "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER!

It was dark inside the spaceship. And very spacious. Koto was standing at a large console that was clearly meant to be operated by multiple people. But with the help of his nanotech, he managed to fly, shoot, and process all other functions. The ship also had a wide windshield, allowing the captain and any crew to have a view of 120 degrees. Holographic screens revealed the blind spots of the ship and the location of the two fighter jets.

*PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEW*

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "ITS SHOOTING AT US!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "It' - WHAT?!?"

Gun barrels had appeared on the rim of the spaceship. It was firing multicolored bursts of plasma at the fighter jets. The shots were only barely missing as the two pilots zigzagged through the air.

Fighter Pilot Brian : "DELTA COMMAND! WE HAVE BEEN ENGAGED BY THE SUSPECT! RETURNING FIRE!"

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "DIE ALIENS!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "REQUESTING BACK UP!"

It was chaos. Brian and Johnny were trying to dodge, but were only barely managing to keep it together. The large UFO was also attempting to dogfight them. Pursuing them and staying on their tails like it was somehow attached to them. The way it moved through the air was so impossible. It neither accelerated nor decelerated. It simply moved swiftly from position to position at a steady rate. Whenever it wanted to change direction, it either steered or "bounced" in the new direction. The pilots tried to fight back, launching their rockets and doing flybyes with their guns. Their attacks either missed the UFO or were caught on an invisible force field that rippled purple across the surface whenever a bullet made it's impact.

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "I'm out! I'm out of bullets! I'M OUT OF BULLETS!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "DELTA COMMAND! THIS IS BRAVO BIRD 1! WE HAVE BEEN ENGAGED BY THE AIRCRAFT AND NEED IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE!"

*radio static*

Command : "Bravo Bird 1. This is Delta Command. We see you on the feed. Fly towards the mainland immediately. Liberty has been notified of your situation and in heading towards your current position. Hang in there."

*radio static*

*PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEW*

The pilots continued to dodge the hot flashes of plasma shot from the spacecraft as they headed towards the mainland.

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "WHO THE HELL IS LIBERTY!?!"

Fighter Pilot Brian : "ITS A HERO! STARS AND STRIPES!"

Fighter Pilot Johnny : "HELL YEAH! COME ON! LETS GUIDE THIS ***** TO HER!"

The two pilots flew towards the shore, dodging any attacks their pursuer made.

________________________________________________________________________________

[Inside the Spaceship]

Koto : "YEAHAHAHAHAHA! Fly away little birdies. Fly! MWAHAHAHAHA!"

Alfred : "Sir. You do realize that there should be a healthy limit to how much you terrorize others for your own amusement."

Koto : "Aww, Alfy. So considerate. Don't worry. I was aiming to miss my shots all this time."

Alfred : "That's not the issue. At this rate, you might as well as be an actual villain. Not in the tragic hero sense, but just for the sake of being the 'cool' bad guy."

Koto : "So what? Megamind is one of my favorite characters!"

Alfred : "And even he did not want to remain villainous. in the end, he reformed into an upstanding citizen of Metro City."

Koto sighed. He was having so much fun, but he still valued Alfred's input. Even though he was just an AI he made based of of the butler from Batman. Alfred was trying to be responsible for him.

It's ironic. In a sad way. Batman lost his parents and has a butler named Alfred that looks out for him. Koto also lost his parents and also has a butler based off of Alfred. But he's an AI instead of a war veteran.

Sometimes, Koto wonders what the real cause of his parents death was. He knew it was an accident and that a villain was the cause of it. But what if it wasn't? What if Koto's quirk, Memelord, had a stronger effect on the world around him than he realized? What if the reason for his parent's death was not a villain attack, but because of a misfire when Koto had said "I'm Batman." What if his quirk really made him Batman by making him an orphan instead of making him look more intimidating?

Koto shook the thought out of his head. He knew his quirk didn't work like that. Even if it did, it would be a lot more noticeable. He even scanned his DNA to see how his quirk worked in detail. It was...sort of scary.

Koto's quirk was a reality manipulation type of quirk that uses various references to execute a desired outcomes associated with those references. But the limits and drawbacks to this ability seemed to be significantly nonproportional to the power it granted. That is what was scary. It meant that if there was a meme about destroying the planet with the push of a red button, then Koto could destroy the planet by drawing a picture of a red button and then pressing it while activating his quirk. But it would only work in the direction of the desired outcome. Koto had no desire to destroy the world so even if he tried to use that meme, it would have no effect since deep down he would not want the world to end.

But Koto had doubts. He knew of stories where people were born with really strong quirks but were unable to keep them under control. People have died from that. And not to mention there was the Quirk Doomsday theory. Overtime the genes holding quirks would combine as the population continued to reproduce. These fusions of quirks would be passed on to the next generations, granting them immense power. However, some quirks are not compatible with the rest of the genes in the person's body. Especially powerful ones. If a person had a powerful quirk, their body might not be able to handle the stress. And if that happens, then the person could get severely injured by their own quirk. Or even die. This would happen more often as the generation of the populations progressed.

And Koto though his experiments found out that his quirk was not one, not two, but EIGHT whole generations ahead of the rest of the gene pool. It made sense regarding the quirk's abilities. Almost. What didn't make sense was the fact that his parents quirks were only powerful enough to be from the generation that was currently up to date with the rest of the world. They were the normal ones. It was then Koto began to theorize that his quirk must be from a major abnormal mutation. A mutation among mutations. Likely as a result from when he somehow got reborn. Fortunately, to a loving family.  A family that he no longer had.

Koto scrubbed the tears from his eyes with his forearms.

Koto : "*sniff*. You're right, Alfred. Sorry. I guess I just got carried away. Let's go home."

Alfred : "Will you be alright, sir."

Koto : "I guess."

The command deck was suddenly illuminated with red as an alarm blared deafeningly. Koto slapped his hands over his ears and staggered away from the controls.

Koto : "ALFRED! WHAT'S HAPPENING!?!"

Alfred : "We have flown over the mainland and are being approached by a small fleet of fighter jets. About a dozen. The ship is detecting a large energy source that it has associated with quirks. Someone powerful is approaching. I recommend we flee."

Koto : "WHAT!?! SHOW ME ON THE SCREEN!"

A holographic screen popped up in front of the command deck. It zoomed it to reveal a figure standing on top of one of the jets. A figure in red, white, and blue.

Nuclear loving America's number one hero. A hero who also had a quirk based in reality manipulation. A hero who could kill you just by knowing your name. Stars and Stripes.

Koto fell down into his command chair.

Koto : "Well...that sucks."
