"Sigh and Omnitech is planning on buying the entire building? Do you have any Id-" A tired-sounding man spoke before he was cut off.
"I'll pay you 8 Million dollars."
The man froze, slowly turning to the souce of the second voice, who turned out to be Ray.
"(Violently Clears Throat) Deal."
Ray stands up and shakes the man's hand with a great big smile. 'Shameless bastard.' He had been fighting him over prices for two weeks and oboy managed to succeed when he forked up the price by a shit ton.
'Well, at least I have my own building now.'

"Okay, let me get this straight." Azmuth spoke from the now green omnitrix, which he had stated to be the entirely wrong color due to a malfunction. "You've not only used the single greatest piece of technology in all of creation to merely create a legal business, but you've also decided that this business will sell alien technology as it's main product?!"
"Well, when you put it like that-" Ray, who was dressed in a modest new outfit, began to say before he was interupted.
"Of course I say it like this! You absolutely cannot go around selling alien technology to an underdeveloped world!" Azmuth would have popped a tiny blood vessel, if he had one.
"Listen, I wasn't going to do anything insane, just good improvements to what we already have. Plus, I was always gonna run it by you before I put it out on the market." Ray tried to appease the galvan.
Azmuth squinted his holographic eyes. "...I'll allow it."
"Great! Cuz I already have a few designs ready for review." Pulling up his phone, which was one of the products, Ray sent the designs directly to the Omnitrix.
"I made an upgraded mobile phone that would be the most advanced ever created, a new laptop design, a smart watch, and a bunch of other stuff to go along with them. Some of that other stuff includes merch based around all my current aliens." That got an eyebrow rais out of Azmuth.
"Why the latter?"
Ray shrugged. "What? I need some kind of mascot. Might as well take advantage of the fact that I have literally every alien in your galaxy on my wrist."
Azmuth nodded. Apparently it was sound logic.
"Done with review, but I recommend downgrading all of these designs."
Ray frowned. "Why, are they to advanced?"
Azmuth shook his head. "No, bit if you plan on running a business based on technologies, you'll need to come up with 'new' ideas. Plus, even with a downgrade these will be much better than what is available on the market."
Ray was honestly surprised. "Didn't think you'd actually give me advice on this kind of thing." He said, diving into downgrading his designs.
"Well I'm stuck with you here, so I might as well make it so you're not begging me for things at every opportunity."
Ray smirked when he heard that. "Speaking of begging-"
"No, I am not giving you Master Control."
Ray shrugged. "Worth a shot."
"Not a shot you'll ever make I'm afraid." Azmuth muttered, returning into the Omnitrix.
"We'll see about that..." Ray muttered himself.

(An unknown amount of time later)
Two reporters were having a debate on national television, speaking about topics that started with politics and presidential campaigns, then eventually divulged into heroes and their recent actions.
"Stark has been notably less violent in his takedown recently, opting to use electrified wire and rubber bullets to take down minor threats. Though, he continues to act only when it involves his personal life." The man said.
"Yes, while the Man Out of Time, Captain America, has been massively helping out with hostage situations, as shown in the recent bank hiest on main street." The woman next to him added.
"Mhm, he's always been a great help to this city and it's inhabitants."
"Speaking of a great help, have you noticed that new transforming hero that everyone's been talking about recently?" The woman asked, visa lyrics becoming more exited.
"Yeah, I have!" He said, turning to the camera. "For those of you who have been living under a rock, there's a new hero in New York City. They've been seen to posses the ability to transform into a surprising variety of different unknown alien species, all with special abilities."
"Yes, my favorite has to be that bouncy one with one eye. What did they call it again?"
"Upgrade I believe." The man finished for her.
"Eek! They're just so cute!"
"Haha! Personally I like the one they call Heatblast. Not only is it bada- COUGH, COUGH, I mean really cool, but they've stopped a new record of fires this month."
"Moving on from our little hero gush, did you hear about the new tech company, Omnitech? They've even taken to using this new hero's aliens as mascots. Saying that they've helped out with new innovations and even given concent for the use of their image."
"Yeah, I find it really interesting that they had the gall to use an unofficial hero figure as their mascot. I mean- what if they suddenly turn evil or something? It'll completely ruin their brand image." The man said enthusiastically.
"Well, it's definitely working. Their CCO, a remarkably young man by the name of Roy Harper, has reported that they've seen a massive growth of over 20% profit sense implementing the new mascot program." The woman said in response.
"Well, I guess we'll have to see how it turned out in the end for the, might I add, youngest major business owner that New York has seen in years." The man said, turning back to the camera.
"Moving on, the Daily Bugle has been..." The woman's voice trailed off as Ray no longer paid attention to the news channel.
Getting up, Roy sighed contently from his personal workshop at the top of Omnitech Tower. The entire building had gotten a major makeover, starting from when it had been demolished.
After that, Roy had hired a construction team and began to help out under the disguise of his new hero outfit, though he had yet to find a good name...
Anyway the costume started with a base layer of incredibly durable jeans, a white T-shirt with the Omnitrix symbol sitting in the middle of a vertical black line, and military style boots. On top of the shirt was an entirely black leather jacket with green and white highlights. He also wore fingerless gloves and a robotic mask. The mask however covered his whole head and had a display screen that showed a stylized version of his expression.
[Ex: (● ¤) for the eyes and the mouth usually starts as just a line, all in green]
Anyway, with his help, the construction of the new and improved building took less than a month, and the tower was the single best and most secure in the entire city.
It had top of the line security systems, ran by an Ai that Roy and begged Azmuth to create to help him with daily tasks. (Azmuth only relented when Roy started using him to do the same things and why in the world would he allow himself, who was created in the image of the First Thinker, to be ordered around like some kind of dog?)
All in all, Roy had grown a whole lot in the last two months, and he could actually say that he was ready to relax a bit more, that is if the world had anything to say about it.
Roy sighed to himself as he watched a police convoy get blown up a few blocks away from him. "Can't ever get a moment to enjoy my life huh?"
Shaking his head, he tapped the window a few times and it opened on its own. "Oliver, block out the paparazzi for me would you?"
The Omnitrix glowed as a British voice sounded from it's speaker. "Already done sir. Would you like your suit as well?"
Roy smiled. "You know it." Stepping up onto the balcony as nanobots started flooding out of the Omnitrix, Roy didn't even wait for it to cover him fully, jumping off.
Calmly tapping the watch and pulling up an alien, Roy pressed down and yelled outloud for 'tradition's sake'.
"It's hero time!"
