"Please, sit... Make yourself at home... Well a bit, but you get the jist...", Yoru says calmly as she gestures her hand towards the chair infront of her desk.
Hikaru shakily nods and sits down, fixing his posture by forcing a ninety degree sitting position.
"So... Hikaru Shimo is it?", Yoru says interested as she takes out a file and reads out all the information from the data bank.
"Sixteen. Well that's quite young... Doing a Bachelors from a local College in Literature? That's pretty nice. I love myself some literature too~ And oh? You are from the Shimo Family... That's interesting to hear...", Yoru says as she keeps reading and listing the facts about Hikaru.
Yoru then closes the file.
"Anyways... You're here for the promotion interview to Junior Agent... I should start asking you the necessary questions...", Yoru says as she puts the file away.
"Introduce yourself, Hikaru...", Yoru says her eyes locking into Hikaru's.
Hikaru is taken a bit back by her professional dominance, but he musters up a response.
"I... I'm Hikaru Shimo... And my dream is to become an Agent and get stronger and save people!", Hikaru says passionately.
"Oh? Well that's a bit overused phrase, isn't it dear?", Yoru says as she rests her head on her knuckle.
"I- um. Well this dream stems from my mother... Who unfortunately passed away when I was just eight... She wanted me to become stronger and restore glory within the Shimo Clan... I guess that's my motivation.", Hikaru says as he looks professionally into Yoru's eyes.
Yoru sighs.
"Kiddo I said introduce yourself. Not what your motivation is...", Yoru says as she rolls her eyes in boredom.
Hikaru gulps, knowing clearly he messed up his interview. Not a great outlook towards Yoru. Hikaru notices her disappointment and says:
"I- I am sorry-"
"You shouldn't. I need a proper response, Hikaru.", Yoru interrupts Hikaru whilst maintaining a proper dominant personality over him.
Hikaru breathes in and calms his own nerves and begins speaking:
"Apart from being an Agent, I like doing Literature and reading works of different authors throughout the world. I also like playing sports such as badminton and football, though I'm not really the most skilled in that department... Oh, and I am also a skilled swordsman!", Hikaru proclaims as he locks in his eyes with Yoru's, trying to maintain an equal footing with her.
It seemed like Yoru still was looking down on Hikaru as she didn't expect alot, but she gently smiled.
"That's what I wanted to hear... Good...", Yoru replies satisfied.
"See? It wasn't that hard, was it?", Yoru asks with an overexaggerated expression of sarcasm.
Hikaru just nods lightly, maybe a bow, but it was just a small nudge of his neck.
Meanwhile, raindrops started tapping against the cold window of Yoru's office. The weather slowly turning more darker and colder. There was an eriee silence until Yoru spoke up again.
"Since you've explained your motivation for your reason to be a PPA Agent, how about... You tell me a bit about your social circle? Your personality? What are you most comfortable with?", Yoru asks Hikaru, folding her arms and leaning back in her chair.
"Um... I'd say I'm not an actively social person... I don't get along with people much, though I can be confident enough to talk with them or give a speech, but I don't feel comfortable with someone... I like to enjoy my own thoughts... And my personality? Um... Good? I really don't know how to describe it.", Hikaru says as he describes his comfort circle.
"Uh huh... So you are an introvert and feel comfortable alone... That's something that should be on my mind for your missions... Anyways... I want to ask you... What happened down there? In the sinkhole?", Yoru asks as she gets serious.
Hikaru looks a bit shocked and then he tries remembering what happened. Only flashes of the person called Sora came up in his mind. There really wasn't anything that Hikaru's brain remembered well regarding the sinkhole incident.
"I mean... All I remember was I had killed an Eclipse and then suddenly I had awoken some funny looking dude...", Hikaru says as he shrugs, unknown of the threat.
Yoru's smile curls down.
"You're naive... Do you understand who that man is? He is from the days of Late Asuka - Early Nara Civilization days... He was known as a "God" for being so strong and skilled in the Arts of Senzai, that no one was able to beat him. He had left himself sealed as a testimony to await the day someone strong gives him the fight he always wanted... A fight he craved... And now... He's free... All because of you...", Yoru says as she stirs the teaspoon of her tea on the table, as if she's fascinated by Sora Makizushi.
Hikaru looked puzzled.
"I... I really don't understand the hype behind him, but I hope he doesn't cause any problems...", Hikaru says naively, greatly underestimating Sora.
"It's fine, Hikaru... It really is... You'll understand... Eventually...", Yoru grins as she places her hand infront of her, asking for a handshake.
Hikaru grabs her hand, and Yoru gently tugs his hand for a warm handshake whilst still smiling with her eyes closed.
Meanwhile... On the other side of the PPA Headquarters.
The weather had gotten more rainy and it was starting to feel like a thunderstorm in the upcoming minutes... A man stands atop of all the skyscrapers, overlooking the PPA building, it is Victor...
Victor's hairs flow adjacently to the wind, his eyes reflecting the thousands of lights of Shinjuku off, giving a glittery look.
"Let us begin... Sora Makizushi!", Victor says as he grins excitedly, the voltage surging ever so violently in the atmosphere.
