A Mutant's Ascension

[POV Nemuri]

Why all the men except Reo are stupid fucks?? I internally groaned… now Nemuri, don't need to blow a gasket, you must think about something that makes you happy. Yes, Nemuri, be a good girl and think about Reo's hotdog going inside my doughnut.​​

"Miss Kayama so what have you decided?" the man sitting on the opposite side of the table asked me. I gave him a stink eye… the man's name was Ward Meachum, an annoying little bastard.

"…Mr. Meachum then let me ask you did you not understand what I told you a few days ago?" I asked him while gritting my teeth. Why the fuck did I decide to play business?? Yes, I wanted my name written in history… stupid me…!!

"I am sorry Miss Kayama, but you have to understand that the Board doesn't agree with you" Joy Meachum spoke up from the side.

I looked at the woman beside Ward Meachum for a few seconds… useless bint. They have stuck their head so far up their asses that they could smell their toothpaste in the morning.

The shit stains don't even know that their company has been taken over by a criminal organization and here I am trying to manipulate them to do good and they get their panties in a twist.

"You know what? Fuck the Board, I will buy your whole damn company if I need to do this" I said in a dismissive tone. "Now, run away to your precious board and tell them about it… not that it would matter" I said and both looked at me like they have eaten a lemon.

"Miss Kayama, I don't understand why are you hellbent on doing this… if we decrease the medicine prices then the other companies will start to make more profit than us and we are not running a charity here… we are here to earn money both you and I" Ward Meachum gave an interesting speech… he would have won an award if he wasn't a fool.

These two fools in front of me might be running a big company like Rand Enterprises but they are too short-sighted… they simply can't understand that if we slightly lower the prices of the medicines then we would be attracting a lot of new customers. Even the rich will buy medicine from us.

This would plummet the business of the other companies and we will slowly monopolize the whole medicine industry… these fucks can't simply understand that sometimes we need to play the long game to earn money so that we can buy shiny things!!

"Miss Kayama, is there any way that we can agree on a middle ground?" Joy Meachum asked me bringing me out of my thoughts. I gave her a stink eye… I was thinking about my shiny things!!

"Yes, there might be something I can think of. Now, you will need to excuse me… I have a scheduled appointment" I said and dismissed them. The reason the Joint CEOs of Rand Enterprises came to meet me personally because I was now the proud owner of 30% of their company shares.

Only beaten by the Joint CEOs who own 35% of the company and the rest is owned by the riff-raffs. I already knew that I had to get my hands dirty if I needed to run my business smoothly. I guess I will need to clear the trash myself but before that, I would need to visit the launch site for my upcoming space travel.

I got up from my chair and walked out of my office and waved my hand to close the door. I don't want anyone getting any ideas now. There was no one else other than me on this floor… not even guards. After all, I didn't need any guards that would have been an insult.

I Flash Stepped right into the parking lot and called the receptionist to tell her that I was leaving. I entered my car which was obviously shiny and drove out of the building…

[With Ward & Joy Meachum]

"What do you think she would do?" Joy asked Ward in a slightly worried tone. They knew because of the economic crises Nemuri Kayama was able to get her hands (claws) into so much of their company but there was no denying the fact that she wasn't dangerous.

"She won't give up, that's for sure. Yes, she might agree to back off a little bit but she won't give this up" Ward said while shaking his head. He needed to inform his father about how the meeting proceeded. (A/N: Draco vibes)

"But the Board would never agree with her" Joy said in a solemn tone. She knew what Nemuri Kayama wanted to do was for the humans (A/N: Only if she knew). But Joy thought that Nemuri Kayama was a naïve fool who didn't even know how these companies worked.

"*sigh* Let's wait and see what she does…" Ward sighed and leaned back in the seat. He was feeling that his headache was rising.

Neither of them said anything more. Ward dropped Joy at her house and then he went to meet his father. He arrived in front of his father's penthouse and knocked on the door.

After a few seconds, his father opened the door and invited his son inside. Ward walked inside the house and released a defeated sigh.

(A/N: It has been only a few months since Harold has faked his death so he currently lives in the Penthouse alone, he hasn't hired his helping hand)

"From your looks, the meeting was fruitful, right?" Harold asked his son and sat down on the opposite couch.

"No dad, she is very stubborn. From what I have guessed, she is planning to take over" Ward said and sighed once again. He hasn't told Joy about this, after all, telling her would have gained nothing.

"This is very bad news" his father said while nodding at himself. He needed to inform Madame Gao about this.

"Don't worry son, I will take care of it" Harold said cryptically. Ward simply nodded his head while he grimaced slightly. He knew what kind of underhanded things happened to keep businesses running smoothly.

After that Harold talked with his son for quite some time. Harold called it father-son bonding and when Ward finally left, Harold sent a message to his Madame Gao.

Gao came to the penthouse within an hour, after she received the message from Harold that there was an emergency. Gao was someone who was very serious about her business and she would go to any lengths to stop it from getting ruined. She also liked to keep everything under her control.

"So, what is this emergency you talked about?" Gao asked in a simple tone.

"Madame Gao, Nemuri Kayama is becoming a huge problem. She wants to take over the company" Harold said in a respectful tone.

Gao frowned but quickly schooled her expressions. "That isn't good… not good at all" Gao said while shaking her hand.

"Looks like Kayama needs to be dealt with… I have tried approaching her before but she had denied me. But she might have some uses" Gao said and started to pace around the room slowly.

"What can you tell me about her company?" Gao asked with interest in her voice.

"Not much is known about her company Madame Gao but currently she owns the biggest company in the whole world. Her company is holding the world economy together or it would collapse again" Harold said. Gao heard him and nodded her head.

"She owns this company on her own right?" Gao asked and Harold nodded his head.

"Looks like taking her out might have to wait then… she is a Golden Goose and you don't kill the Golden Goose if she can keep giving eggs… but if the Goose chooses not to follow her master then it must be put down" Gao said in an ominous tone. Harold didn't say anything while Gao was monologuing.

"Good work Harold, I will deal with our Golden Goose" Gao said and left the penthouse…

[POV Nemuri]

I finally arrived at the launch site and found that the group was already waiting there for me. A sneer made its way to my face when I saw Doom… I still hated Doom. I parked the car and walked towards the group. We quickly got the pleasantries out of the way.

"What's the progress?" I asked and took off my shades. Wearing shades was also a bother now… after all, my ears were on top of my head.

"Everything is going around smoothly… come, Miss Kayama let us show you around" Susan said with a smile on her face.

They lead me inside the launch station, they showed me around but I wasn't much interested in all of these. They finally took me to the Control Room. Yes, this was something I was interested in… everything in this room was the latest tech.

"Looks like my money wasn't wasted" I remarked and looked around the room. Throughout this whole time, Doom didn't say anything. This place was owned by Doom's company but he didn't have the money to do anything.

"I am glad that no expenses were spared. Show me the shuttle" I said. Susan and Reed happily lead me towards the balcony.

The shuttle was strapped onto a rocket and it was completely ready to be launched but we still needed to wait about 4 months. After all, if we go there too early then our trip will be completely wasted. Now, why the fuck the rocket looks like a giant dildo ready to pierce the heavens???
