"This is Father Kōfuku Honō, he'll be working with us from now on so treat him with the same respect you do anyone else in this company." Akitaru smiled as he talked to the rest of the members of Company 8. "Hi." Kōfuku smiled with his special smile causing rookies Shinra Kusakabe and Arthur Boyle to flinch. "He's so cute!" Maki Oze and Sister Iris blushed. "It's like the heavens shine down from above him when he smiles! And his voice is so angelic as light!" Maki gushed. "I'm sorry what was that? I didn't here you." Kōfuku tilted his head in confusion. "She's trying to tell you that smile is something else." Shinra said as he arched an eyebrow. Everyone did have their own right to act that way when Kōfuku smiles. Kōfuku is a very handsome boy. His hair is a snowy white, his bangs are in the middle and just fall down onto the middle of his forehead. Kōfuku's left eye is light brown and his right eye is a pretty light blue. His skin is a fair tone, and his smile is warm and happy. "I-Is something wrong with my smile? I'm s-sorry, If my smile makes you feel uncomfortable! It seems to do that to a lot of people." Kōfuku frowned. "You're kidding right?" Shinra asked. "That knight stole away the hearts of the beautiful princesses. He must be challenging me." Arthur muttered. "What did he say?" Kōfuku asked. "Nothing. There's nothing wrong with your smile." Shinra nervously chuckled as he hit Arthur on the head.

"Well I see that you're already taking a liking to him, but let's get back to the point." Akitaru said. "Thanks to Father Kōfuku we're going to hopefully recruit three new members. Father Kōfuku was a member of Company 9, and he asked that we try and recruit the remaining members. Of course I had to accept for obvious reasons. So today, I've got a little mission for some of you." Akitaru explained as he picked up a clipboard. "He was from Company 9.... that explains the bandages around his head. I feel bad for him." Iris thought as she looked at Kōfuku. "Your jobs today is to recruit  Mizuki Hinotsubasa, Kazan Nagamochi, and.... Hina Shinmon." Akitaru sighed. "Do you mind telling us about  Mizuki Hinotsubasa and Kazan Nagamochi. When we talk to them, I'd like to convince them to join the best way I can. I'd like to make them feel comfortable." Akitaru asked. "Of course sir. Mizuki has third generation pyrokinetics and was my lieutenant. She always got the job done but she's a really shy person. She's always listening to jazz music, it helps her calm down. Since she's always listening to music she always has her earbuds in. If you forcefully take them out.... well just don't take them out. Once you get to know her she's just a really nice person. You should be less formal with her. I'm sure it won't scare her."  Kōfuku explained.

"Mhm. So she's jumpy, that's fine." Akitaru mumbled. "Kazan... he's a funny kid." Kōfuku chuckled causing Maki and Sister Iris to blush again. "He's also has third generation pyrokinetics. He was just a rookie before the accident. He's a real joker, I'm pretty sure he's running a convenience store with his mom now. I'm sure he doesn't care who talks to him or what you wear when you do so. He's pretty laid back but he is a bit of a loud mouth sometimes." Kōfuku explained. "Thanks. Now, I think we should start with the hardest person to recruit.... I think that would be Mizuki Hinotsubasa." Akitaru grinned nervously. Takehisa looked at him and sighed. "You and I both know who you're trying to avoid." Takehisa frowned. "I can't face her after all these years. Do you know all the things she'd do to me?" Akitaru glared. "I'm sending Shinra, Arthur, and Father Kōfuku." Akitaru sighed.

She watched the clouds slowly move as she waited to cross the street. The wind flowing past her, making a cool breeze. "Sometimes I wish I was a cloud. Just floating along, going where ever the wind takes me. No, I wish I was an object that doesn't have to be bothered with anything else... or maybe an animal, like a cat." The woman said out loud.   "No... just a cloud. I'd rather be a cloud. Yeah." The woman said as she squinted her eyes at the clouds. This woman who was contemplating what she wanted to be other then a human is Hina Shinmon. Her hair is black and shoulder length. Her bangs are slicked back and are put into a small ponytail. Her left pupil is a red circle with a black dot in the middle, and her iris is also black; while her right eye has a red iris and a white cross-shaped pupil, reminiscent of the tic-tac-toe game. Hina is now the former captain of Company 9.
