Reiss P.O.V

"I apologize for that rude introduction. I must've gotten my names mixed up. It's very nice to meet you Sakiya"

Ok Katsumi. Bear with me while I try to help you out on this. There's only so much I can ask without seeming suspicious.

"It's nice to meet you as well. I'm a huge fan by the way *turns to Katsumi* My little one loves your music"

Katsumi's eyes lit up in fury, but the lady mistaken it as something more on the joyous side, "Ah yes. Katsumi is one talented woman, but she's actually busy as of now. She was just on her way out to finish something. Isn't that right Katsumi?"

She nodded her head stiffly, wanting to stay and eavesdrop, but what good would that be.

I closed the door as she left and lead Sakiya to the chair in front my desk, "So what is it you wanted to apply for Sakiya? Our team is friendly, no matter what department you choose"

"I was hoping for security. I heard that you guys were low on staff because of last weeks incident. I brought in all my qualifications and my hero license"

"It's always nice to have a hero on the team, but I do worry sometimes. Would this job interfere with your job as a hero?"

"Not at all. I usually work nights as a Pro, but if you guys need me to work nights here, then I will gladly rearrange my schedule. It would be no problem at all"

"Ok. Seeing as your a Pro hero, it's safe to assume you have a quirk. Mind informing me of your power and how it works"

"Of course. My quirk is Audible Inundation. Sort of like telepathy. I have the power to get inside of peoples heads and make them hear things"

That's one intense power. I bet a lot of criminals had to go to therapy.

"That could be very useful on our team. It could also strengthen our communication. We do perform a physical test to ensure our security team is fit and capable, so would you like to perform the test now or tomorrow"

"Now is fine. How will the test be conducted?"

"You will be going against three of our top security guards. Each person will have 3 sensors including your self. If you manage to hit all 9 sensors, your in. If they hit all three of yours, your out"

"3 against 1?"

"If your going to be apart of our team then you'll need to fend off plenty more people from grabbing onto our client. We can't have people thinking she's an easy target"

"I understand. If there's one thing I learned, it's to never underestimate your target. If you do then your bound to lose"

"Exactly. Those are very wise words"

"Can't take full credit. My husband used to say that to me all the time since my quirk wasn't physically helpful"

"Husband? Your married?"

"Yes. He's a Pro Hero too. That's how we met. You might've heard of him. Erasurehead"

I already knew once Katsumi introduced her with that last name, but this was like a big slap on the face. I didn't see him as the cheating type, but I guess you never really know a person.

"The one with the erasing quirk?"

"Yes. Devilishly handsome, great physique, long hair"

I know someone who could agree to all that.

"He actually works here with us. I don't presume you knew about this before your request to meet me here for an interview?"

"He does?! I mean- *clears throat* he does? Me and him are actually uh...complicated. I haven't seen him in months. I knew he worked at a school, but never heard about him being a security guard for a popular singer"

I wanted to find a flaw in her statement, but I couldn't find any. Even when he was Katsumi's personal body guard, he was never found in a picture. If he was, you can barely recognize the man.

"He's very good at his job. A stealth hero like himself allows me and my client to be at ease. He goes above and beyond and that's what we ask for in all our workers"

"At any chance, can you tell me if he's on the security force?"

"Yes he is, but I hope that won't interfere with your prime goal which is to protect Katsumi at all times. We don't allow distractions. The risk is to great if any of you guys lose focus"

"Of course, I understand completely. I just asked so I knew what to suspect when I joined. I wouldn't want to lose focus on the first day. That would be terrible"

Psh. Does she really think I believe that?

"Let's get you down stairs for your test. If you need more flexible clothing, we have some available. Just ask and I'll be more than glad to provide it for you"

"That would be awesome. I'm sure it would help out overall. My agility would be restricted by at least 40 percent in these pants", she laughed.

"I'll be sure to give you a PE set when we get there. It comes with a shirt, pants, socks and shoes. All of them are fresh and new, so no worry about germs. We keep them on hand just in case we forget to advise people of the physical portion of the interview or if someone accidentally spills something on their clothes during lunch break"

The woman laughed once more, shining her teeth brightly, as she stood up from the chair.

"Now I need to pass so I can hear more jokes from you", she giggled.

She seems like the nice type, which is never good. Too nice means your rude, so maybe I should do a little digging. Just to put Katsumi at ease.
