Capítulo 55: Chapter 54: Initial Completion

"Ding."

The elevator doors slid open smoothly, revealing a bustling but orderly office space. Men and women in sharp suits moved efficiently around the area, each focused on their respective tasks. The low hum of work filled the air, faint conversations as files were exchanged, the sound of ringing phones promptly answered, and the rhythmic clicking of keyboards typing out reports.

When the nearby employees spotted Kaminari and his friends, they greeted him with warm, familiar smiles but nothing too formal. After all, they'd seen him countless times over the years, he was the president's son, after all.

"Hmm... looks like Dad didn't mention anything about Momo," Kaminari mused quietly as he led Kyoka and Momo toward the president's office.

"Wow!" Momo exclaimed softly, her eyes lighting up with interest as she took in the surroundings. "Kaminari, your family's company is really focused on 'Pikachu.' There are so many of them around here!"

"Yeah, it's like Pikachu paradise," Kyoka added, nodding toward the large two-meter-high Pikachu posters that adorned the walls, along with various Pikachu-themed merchandise and stickers scattered throughout the office.

"Hey, what are those?" Kyoka asked, pointing toward some posters near the floor-to-ceiling windows. "They don't look like Pikachu."

Kaminari and Momo followed her gaze. The posters showed three unfamiliar Pokémon, each with a Poké Ball hovering above their heads, all in vibrant colors and unique shapes.

"Oh, those," Kaminari said with a smile. "Those are the starter Pokémon. The red one is Charmander, a Fire-type. The little turtle is Squirtle, a Water-type, and the green one over there is Bulbasaur, a Grass-type."

"Shu...ba? What does that mean?" Kyoka asked, tilting her head, her confusion making her look rather adorable.

Kaminari chuckled. "That's just the species name for Pikachu and the others. They're what we call basic Pokémon."

Of course, Kaminari didn't mention that he had drawn these characters himself, at least, the original three. Beyond those, he'd created basic sketches of several Pokémon and planned to leave the rest of the designs to his mother and a team of professional cartoonists.

"They're really interesting designs!" Momo said, clearly impressed. As someone with a keen business sense, she quickly grasped the potential behind what Kaminari's family was doing.

Just Pikachu alone had built a successful company. Expanding it into an entire Pokémon world with multiple characters? The possibilities were endless.

"Son!"

Kaminari's father appeared, having just been notified by his secretary that they had arrived. He strode over to greet them, his eyes lighting up as he took in the sight of Momo and Kyoka. Well, mostly Momo, he was eager to meet the young lady from the prestigious Yaoyorozu family.

"Dad, this is Kyoka Jiro and Momo Yaoyorozu," Kaminari introduced them formally. "They're my classmates and members of the Pikachu Band."

"Ah, very nice to meet you!" Kaminari's dad said, beaming. "Such lovely young ladies. Please take good care of Kaminari!"

"Hello, sir," Momo and Kyoka replied politely, both bowing in greeting.

Kaminari's father practically glowed with pride. His son was clearly doing well, not only starting a band but also bringing home such charming and capable friends. He couldn't help but think Kaminari was already much more accomplished than he had been at his age.

"Let's head down to the recording studio on the second floor," his dad said, pointing to the elevator. "Dawu should have everything set up for you."

He led the way, eager to hear the song Kaminari had composed as the potential theme for their first animation project. Given the success of Kaminari's earlier work, he wasn't too worried, it would probably be great.

Soon, they arrived at the recording studio, which was sleek and well-equipped. Dawu, who was in charge of the technical side, had clearly taken his role seriously today. Instead of lounging around playing with his phone like usual, he was wearing a neat light-blue suit, his hair carefully styled, and he even had a pair of glasses that added a touch of professionalism.

"Alright," Kaminari's father said as they settled into the studio. They all gathered around a low glass coffee table, sinking into the soft leather couches. "Before we dive into the song, how much do you two know about 'Pokémon'?"

Kyoka and Momo exchanged glances, then shook their heads. Momo answered, "Honestly, we don't know much beyond Pikachu and the few characters Kaminari just introduced."

Kaminari's father smiled, not at all surprised. After all, Pokémon hadn't officially launched yet, so there wasn't much for them to know.

"That's alright," he said, reaching for a tablet on the table. He tapped a few buttons before handing it to them. "Take a look at this. It'll give you a good idea of what the series is about."

Kyoka and Momo leaned in, curious. The screen displayed a black-and-white comic cover featuring Pikachu perched on a young boy's shoulder, clearly a younger version of Kaminari himself, though with a much more "cute" and playful look compared to his real-life self.

"Wait, the manga's already out?" Kaminari asked, surprised.

"Haha, not quite," his dad laughed. "We've only got the first two chapters finished. It'll take a while before the whole series is ready."

Momo picked up the tablet and scooted closer to Kyoka, both of them intrigued. They hadn't expected Pokémon to feature Kaminari as the main character.

"This is so weird," Kyoka said with a smile, her eyes sparkling as she glanced at the chibi version of Kaminari on the screen. "It's the first time I've known someone who became a comic book protagonist!"

Momo giggled as well. "So, if this comic becomes popular, will we start seeing Kaminari merchandise, too? Maybe figurines?"

Kaminari and his dad exchanged glances, both realizing that this could very well be a possibility. Kaminari turned back to the girls, grinning. "If they make figures of me, would you guys buy them?"

"Definitely!" Kyoka blurted out, then immediately blushed, realizing how quickly she'd responded. She tried to hide her embarrassment with a sheepish smile, while Momo laughed beside her.

Capítulo 56: Chapter 55: Midnight, Early Morning, Birdsong

"Hahaha!" Kaminari's father burst into laughter. "It looks like we won't have to worry about the sales of Kaminari's merchandise in the future!"

However, Momo had a different take on it. "We're classmates, and we're also part of the same band. Shouldn't Kaminari's merchandise be gifted to us?"

"Haha, of course! Absolutely!" Kaminari's father replied enthusiastically. "Whenever we launch new products, you two will be the first to get them!"

At that moment, Kaminari, staring at the tablet, suddenly had an idea. "Dad, what if we added these two," he gestured to Momo and Kyoka, "into the manga? They could go on adventures with me and Pikachu!"

Momo and Kyoka exchanged a glance, surprised but intrigued by the idea. It actually sounded... pretty fun.

Kaminari's father scratched his head, thinking for a moment. "I'd have to run it by Junichi, our writer, and of course, we'd need to check with the Mitsui Corporation, too. I can't give you an answer just yet."

"You guys finish reading those two chapters first, then let's start recording the song," he added, standing up. "I'll have my secretary check on it in the meantime."

He had a good feeling about this idea, though. After all, the comic was still in its early stages. Adding new characters or tweaking the storyline wouldn't be too difficult. Plus, having characters based on actual U.A. students would be a massive draw.

U.A. High School was legendary in Japan, the dream school for so many young kids. Just the idea of a comic that featured real Hero Course students from U.A. would send excitement through the roof.

"Uncle, I'll need to check with my family about this too," Momo said apologetically. As the eldest daughter of the Yaoyorozu family, she couldn't just decide something like this on her own. Her family would definitely need to approve any public use of their name or image.

"Of course, that makes sense," Kaminari's father nodded in understanding.

About ten minutes later, after finishing the first two chapters of the Pokémon manga, Kyoka and Momo leaned back, digesting what they'd read. The story was definitely different from what Kaminari remembered from his past life, but for now, it still captured the same spirit of adventure and discovery.

"So, it's about this ten-year-old kid named Denki who goes on a journey with Pikachu," Momo summarized. "They travel together, meeting other Pokémon and battling along the way."

Kyoka nodded thoughtfully. "The theme song you've prepared, it must fit with that magical, adventurous vibe, right?"

"Exactly!" Kaminari said, standing up and clapping his hands. "Alright, let's get started. I'll do a solo run first, and then we can record it together."

He handed a USB drive to Daigo and reminded him, "This one's a bit different from my usual songs. It'll need some extra work in post-production."

Dawu, who was already in full work mode, nodded. "Got it," he said, fully understanding the task ahead.

Kaminari grabbed his guitar affectionately nicknamed "Pikachu" and headed into the recording booth. Kyoka and Momo stood by the glass window, watching him as he set up.

"Do you notice how different Kaminari seems when he picks up the guitar?" Kyoka whispered to Momo. "His whole vibe changes."

Momo nodded, her eyes narrowing thoughtfully. "He's completely focused. It's the same way he gets when we're studying together." She smiled slightly, recalling how serious Kaminari could be when he put his mind to something.

Kyoka just stared at Momo, her words sinking in. Somehow, that comparison made her feel... weird. Maybe a bit jealous, though she couldn't quite place why.

Meanwhile, in a Hero Agency office in Saitama City, Midnight the sultry and fierce pro Hero was seated at her desk, staring intently at nothing in particular. The steaming cup of green matcha tea beside her was completely ignored as she lost herself in deep thought.

"What exactly was that technique?" she wondered. "Why did it feel so... dangerous?"

Her mind drifted back to early that morning, just before dawn, around six o'clock. She'd been at Omiya Park, under the pretense of jogging, secretly hoping to run into Kaminari. She wasn't there to flirt, but as his educator, she felt it was her responsibility to check in on him.

She had dressed down for the occasion simple white athletic wear, nothing too revealing. She wanted to keep it professional, despite her usual reputation for sultriness, she had taken her role as Kaminari's mentor seriously and opted for something more practical than provocative.

In truth, she'd gone there hoping to "accidentally" run into Kaminari. And she did, but not in the way she expected.

She spotted him running not at the park's entrance, but deeper inside, where fewer people usually went. Curious, and sensing something unusual, she trailed him from a distance, her instincts as a Hero kicking in.

At first, she thought he was just out for a jog, but something about the direction he was heading seemed... off. He was moving toward a secluded area, which immediately raised her suspicions.

Choosing to stay back, Midnight activated her most basic tracking techniques, keeping herself hidden as she followed him into the thick, quiet woods.

But then, to her surprise, she lost him.

How? There was no way he could've just disappeared, there were no paths, just a small trail lined with cherry blossoms. Puzzled, she scanned the area but found no sign of him.

That's when she heard it. A faint crackling sound, like electricity, coming from deeper within the trees. It wasn't loud, but in the silence of the forest, it stood out clearly.

Following the sound cautiously, she came across a clearing, and what she saw next made her heart skip a beat.

Hidden behind a tree, she peeked out to see Kaminari standing in the middle of the clearing, his right hand crackling with a bright, intense electrical charge. The sheer concentration of power in his palm sent a chill down her spine.

"What... is that?" she whispered to herself, watching in awe as golden lightning flickered and sparked from his hand.

She had seen Kaminari use electricity before, but this... this was something else entirely. There was a palpable sense of danger in the air, a feeling she only got when she was near someone truly powerful.

Before she could react, the crackling stopped. Kaminari lowered his hand, a look of frustration and disappointment on his face as he muttered to himself, "Failed again... I was so close."

Midnight's mind raced. What exactly had she just witnessed?
