Hikaru was a man of few words.
When Hanami first became an assassin, Hikaru was one of the first people she met as a part of her team.
He was sitting on the top of a brick wall gate, eating an apple.
When he saw her, he answered her greeting with a simple nod of the head. He watched as she walked inside of the palace in front of her.
Hikaru knew that she was innocent. In fact, Hanami is probably the only Bloodhound that was raised peacefully.
Hikaru and the others already lived in hell.
Hers was just beginning.
Somehow Hikaru felt that she needed protecting. She was precious, like the sun peeking out of the clouds after days of nonstop rain.
He was always watching from the shadows, making sure that her state of mind never faltered. He wanted to see her happy, even if it meant sacrificing his own life, which to him didn't mean much, but it was all he could offer.
