It was an early summer morning and already beginning to feel warm, the hum of cicadas filling the silence of the mostly empty street. Aika stood outside of a large building, her blue eyes scanning the building in the soft morning light and taking in the moment. Inside, the hero agency she would be working for. She had graduated from UA this year and just a couple of weeks ago she had passed her hero licensing exam. Now she was starting her first job as a side-kick. She was excited, to say the least. Who wouldn't be excited to see something they had worked for for so long come to fruition? To see one of their dreams finally start to come true? To top it off, she had gotten a job at the agency of one of her favorite heroes. It was a newer agency, as the hero, only about two years her senior, had only branched out on her own about a year ago, but they were already becoming popular.<br/><br/>She took a deep breath as she walked into the building. She was quickly greeted by a woman who asked for her identification before taking her upstairs where she would meet the young heroine, Shadow Angel, who would be her boss from now on. She slid the headphones down tentatively, listening to ensure it wasn't too loud before allowing them to rest around her neck and freeing her long blue hair as she climbed the stairs behind the other young woman. As they reached the top, she heard the faint sound of the door opening but she didn't bother to look back, instead facing the door in front of her as the assistant excused herself and headed downstairs after announcing her presence to the hero who sat behind the desk in the office.<br/><br/>The other woman stood from her desk and greeted Aika with a gesture to come in. She was not exactly tall by many standards, but she was tall to Aika, as she stood at least two inches taller than the younger woman, with long pink hair and deep blue eyes. "<span style="color: #FF80BF">Good morning, Siren,</span>" the hero greeted her, "<span style="color: #FF80BF">Welcome to Angel Agency,</span>" she welcomed her with a smile before returning to her seat and gesturing for her to do the same. "<span style="color: #FF80BF">We have one more sidekick joining us today. He should be here any moment now. We can go through introductions and through the details of your assignments once he joins us,</span>" she explained.<br/><br/>Aika gave her a nod of understanding, "<span style="color: #40BFBF">Of course,</span>" she replied, taking her seat. She could hear two sets of footsteps climbing the stairs, one belonged to the woman from before, the other was heavier and seemed to belong to a man, so she guessed that they wouldn't have to wait much longer.
