|Personality|

Kana is a bright young woman with a warm and infectious smile that can light up any room she finds herself in. With her goofy grin and her generally jovial nature she finds it easy to get along and laugh with others even if they're someone she's never met. Whether it's for a stranger or a close friend Kana is always happy to lend a hand and volunteer herself to help out however she can, expecting nothing in return from whoever she helps. If you need a favor or someone to vent to Kana is someone you can rely on and trust, promises mean a lot to her and you can rest assured she'll do all in her power to follow through on her word. Whether you believe in karma or not, Kana might be a case for its existence. For all the positivity she puts out into the world it seems the world like to return to the girl through the form of some impressively good luck. Offered a modeling job while wandering the streets, just missing the train that was about to break down on the tracks, or winning the second place prize in a lottery are just a few examples. Despite all this brightness and optimism Kana has fairly weak emotional defenses, she's the type to wear her heart on her sleeve and someone who couldn't deceive her way out of a wet paper bag.
"They said 'Be yourself!', so here I am."

|Inventory|
Cellphone
Headphones
Loose change
Thick leather gloves
"These headphones were pretty expensive so I take good care of'em."

|History|
What is there to say about Kana's history? In truth, very little. Born as the only child to a couple of middle classed parents, Kana was much the same as a child as she is now and as such was always a good girl, never one to cause trouble for her teachers or parents and as happy-go-lucky as any child should be. Perhaps the only really notable thing was her lack of weakpoints. Always quite skilled in sports and usually receiving good grades, Kana stood out amongst her classmates and peers as someone with a lot of potential. Her life moved at a slow but pleasant pace, the kind of life that's easy to become complacent and stagnant in. Tired of feeling stuck she decided when high school came around she'd try to get into one far away from her home to gain some independence and shake up her life, and so she ended up in Kinomoto Academy.

She hadn't the slightest idea however how much her life really would change though. As if simply moving away from home and starting highschool wasn't enough, her life was suddenly thrust into the world of the supernatural when she joined the JSO to fight the shadows in Limbo that plagued Kinomoto. Kana even fell in love, and not only that was offered a modeling job one day as she wandered the streets of Kinomoto. Her old life seemed like such a distant memory, every day was exciting and fun and new. This rose colored daily life however couldn't last forever. Kana knew their battles in Limbo were dangerous but it had never really hit home until she saw Chiharu fall before her.

Everyone the JSO was devastated by their defeat and loss, Kana especially so. She had become quite close with Chiharu but had never quite managed to voice her feelings, and now it was too late. With her memories of Chiharu crystallized in her mind Kana swallowed her pain and pressed on to resume being the usual and cheery self she had come to be and resolved to continue fighting the shadows in Chi's place.
"It's a boring story, I promise."

Kana stirred under her covers on another quiet morning, her internal clock had decided to wake her before her alarm did. Intent on silencing the machine before its disruptive noise shattered this morning's serenity she sat up and reached over to flick the switch to turn the thing off. With a moment spent to stretch her arms and rub her eyes Kana kicked off the covers and hopped out of bed, shivering slightly at the sensation of her bare feet on the cold floor.

The steady sound of her footsteps was the only source of noise as Kana walked out to the kitchen, her arms crossed over her chest in an attempt to ward off the cold as the large red shirt she wore swayed about with each step. These lonely mornings were something she had grown used to over her time spent here, she had been living alone in this small apartment for just over a year now after moving away from home to attend Kinomoto Academy. Finding some discomfort in the silence Kana began to hum a horribly off-tune melody to herself as she began to prepare some tea for the morning, pausing upon seeing her distorted face in the reflection of the chrome tea pot. Her hair was a total mess and that combined with the odd shape her face took in the rounded surface of the teapot moved the girl to a quiet giggle, though this was promptly interrupted as her ears perked up at the distant sound of her phone chirping to life back in her bedroom.

Hastily she filled the teapot and put it on the stove before jogging back to her room, easily spotting the small glowing screen that laid not far from her pillow. With a single swift motion she scooped the electronic device up and began tapping and swiping at its surface to see what the commotion was. It looked like an email from her manager about an upcoming shoot, Kana shrugged and dismissed the alert, she'd just read it later. As she lowered the device it buzzed to life once more causing Kana to blink as she brought the device back up to see, this time it was a text from their new leader, Haruo.

7:22 - Hey losers, don't forget about the meeting this morning, up and at em'!

A small smile played across Kana's features as she quickly scanned the message over and tapped out a reply of her own.

7:23 - You got it boss! Last one there buys drinks? ;D

Feeling her usual energy begin to return to her as the morning drowsiness faded, Kana moved on quickly with her usual morning rituals, grinning all the while. As she headed out her front door she locked it and glanced back into the dark and empty apartment, speaking out to no one in particular "I'm heading out."

The bus station was just a short walk from her apartment, and the school just a short bus ride from that station. Kana didn't have to wait long for the bus to arrive, it was usually ahead of schedule by a few minutes by merit of the typically few passengers at this time and place. After paying her fare she took a seat near one of the windows as her headphones hummed their tune into her ears, "I want a girl with a mind like a diamond..."

It wasn't long until the bus arrived at the school. Kana made a hasty exit as she hopped out of the bus and gave the driver a wave goodbye before running up towards the school, and more importantly, to the clubroom. She of course wanted to be first, but as long as she wasn't last she really didn't mind. Even from a distance Kana could make out that bright red hair of Koyama's. Feeling only slightly disappointed that she hadn't gotten here first she grinned and raised her arm up to wave in his direction before calling out to him, "Yo! Morning Koya."

7:29 - Sorry Lam-chan, I told you, I'm just not that into you. hopefully someday you'll find someone that likes you like you like me :c

Chuckling with a satisfying grin, he clicked his phone to lock it and put it back in his coat pocket. He then took his cap off and ran a hand through his umber-brown hair, letting out a large breathy sigh. The stress of leading the group of rag-tag operatives was beginning to get to him now, and it wasn't like Naoya, their sensei, was being any help at all. The man offered very little in terms of out-of-field assistance, insisting that he was merely "An adviser to guide your way, not a babysitter to hold your hand." He reached a certain point of his walk to school in which he would always see a tattered old homeless man sitting on a street corner by his favourite American diner. Sure enough, there he was, sitting on the grass with his legs folded underneath him, mumbling in between swigs from a half full forty of beer. He absent-mindedly grinned, remembering the time he and Chiharu had stolen a cab sav from Haruo's parent's liqour cabinet, taken it to the forest and drank the whole bottle, then had to get Haruo's older sister to come pick them up.

“She was so mad...”' He thought, smiling.

Approaching the bus stop where he and Arisu usually met, he noticed she was facing away from him. “How the hell'd she get here first?” He wondered. He decided to sneak up behind her, pressing his hand down hard on her shoulder, he grabbed a pen from his pocket, clicked it loudly, and pressed it into her back. Making his voice as deep and gravelly as he possibly could, he said, trying not to laugh,

“Don't move."

Arisu's heart nearly jumped from her chest when she felt the weight on her shoulder, hearing the subtle click. For a moment, it felt as if she were paralyzed, her mind trying to frantically run through every course of action.

Of course, she felt very, very foolish a moment later when she heard the voice behind her.

“Don't move."

Maybe it was the ridiculous inflection. Maybe Arisu had been around Haruo long enough to distinguish his voice, no matter what trickery he tried to pull. But even if her friend had been able to sneak up on her, there was no way he'd be able to fool her, especially with that lackluster attempt.

Giving an exaggerated sigh, she raised her hands, turning around to face her fearsome adversary. Her gaze drifted downwards for a brief second, noticing the pen he held in his hand. "Oh, you almost got me. Were you going to scribble me to death if I didn't cooperate?" She asked wryly, a small grin appearing as she pushed the deadly murder weapon aside.

“No no no my dear, I was going to stab you. Let out all my Penned up aggression.” He said, snickering with self-satisfaction. "Though you have to admit, I had you there for a sec."

"Another lame pun like that, and I might just be doing the stabbing." Arisu retorted, "And it was hardly even a second! You just surprised me a little, I knew it was you from the beginning." Which might be a very slight fib.

She turned away, beckoning Haruo to follow as she started walking towards the street. They were both probably going to be a little late for the meeting. And speaking of... "So, what's this one about? I imagine it's a little important, since you don't really do meetings too often."

He followed behind her, walking at a brisk pace. “Yeah, it's about the two that Naoya told us about. I think it's time we approach them.

The two chatted a bit more before arriving at the school, and heading to the club room, where they found Kana and Koyama. “Hey you two, having a little pre-meeting meeting I see?”

After waiting for a few minutes Koyama heard a preppy voice come from out of the hallway, and it was a voice he recognized far too easily. Turning towards the source of the voice he couldn't help but give a quaint smile and a polite head nod to her greeting.

Leaning back off of the doorway after she entered, he reached out and gave a soft smack to the back of her head as he walked past her and towards a chair close to the opposite wall. Spinning it around so he would have to straddle it while looking at her he said in a pleasant voice, "Mornin' to you Kana. Took ya long enough to make it here. At this rate you'll never beat me."

Kana's eyes squinted as she peered over at Koya, though this unusual and unnatural scowl quickly faded as her usual smile won out. With a hand on her hip and the other rubbing the back of her head she offered the young man that sat before her a shrug. "Oh? I wasn't aware we were competing... But eh, long as I'm not the last one here I guess I don't really care. Though, that said, if you -did- wanna throw down I'd be happy to take you on."

She gave a confident grin before reaching up to tug the loose red cap that sat atop her head off, leaving the black locks of her hair to spill out messily around her face. With a quick glance over her shoulder and out the doorway behind her she dipped her hands into her jacket pockets. "Say, you have any idea what this meeting's actually supposed to be about?" Her quizzical gaze refocused once more upon Koya hoping he might have an idea.

Giving a soft chuckle to her response about fighting Koyama followed suit and gazed over towards the door with Kana, with an annoyed grunt he grumbled, "It should be right now to be honest. These people need to take what we are doing more seriously." Glancing up towards the clock on the wall he noticed the time was 7:30, and he had a momentary twitch of his eye from how annoyed he was that no one else had showed up. "I mean, what does he plan to talk about in less than an hour? I'm gettin' the feeling that they aren't trying as hard as we do."

Shifting his angered gaze back to Kana, he gave a light sigh and scratched the back of his head. "At least you're here though. I can at least be thankful for that despite that 'always sunny' attitude you can't seem to drop." While he tried to say that in a humorous tone, he couldn't help but also agree with what he said. This girl can't be happy all the time and shouldn't be pretending she is.

A short sigh escaped Kana's lips as she closed her eyes and shrugged at Koya. "I don't think it really has much to do with anyone not taking it as seriously as anyone else... I... Think it's more likely that we're all just still adjusting, ya know?" She offered a meek smile as her eyes reopened, "Besides, getting all worked up over it won't change anything, if you really think it's an issue bring it up with Haruo after the meeting."

With that said she began to roll her shoulder as she approached one of the desks in the room. After removing her hands from her pockets she plopped herself atop the flat surface and fished into her pocket to retrieve her cellphone. She hadn't received any further texts or calls but she figured she should probably check the email she received earlier from her manager. As she casually swiped and tapped at the screen she grinned at Koya's attempted humor. "And what? I should start frowning all the time like you? That's hardly very cute." Her eyes quickly scanned over the contents of the mail as she registered the details down into her memory before placing the phone back into her pocket. She began kicking her feet idly through the air and tilted her head back to examine the ceiling. "Sure wish they'd hurry up though..."

"Ha, yeah, cute is exactly what I want to be in life. That and being a model like you are. If I accomplish those two things my life will be so complete." His smirk shrank away as Kana took to herself in silence - absorbed in the presence of her cell phone. He couldn't help but be a little annoyed about how absorbed his friends could be with such a pointless device, but he wasn't going to tell her to stop. It wasn't like she was hurting herself in any way, plus she was probably checking on some text that Haruo sent her.

"I'm gonna assume he never mentioned a meeting time huh?" Standing up from his chair and spinning it on one leg with his left hand, he looked back over towards Kana. "That man may be a bastard of a planner, but he is our new leader for a reason. I'm sur-"

“Hey you two, having a little pre-meeting meeting I see?”

Being cut off by Haruo was something that Koyama was both happy and upset to hear. Looking back over his shoulder he gave a nod to both Haruo and Arisu coming through the doorway. "And where the hell were the two of you? Why call this meeting if ya can't even give more than an hour to talk about the important things. I don't want to be in school any longer than I can help it."

Kana glanced over to the doorway as Haruo and Arisu arrived. She found it a bit curious that the two had arrived at the same time but she decided not to read too much into it. All she could do was raise a brow and shake her head as Koya took off to immediately begin berrating their late leaders. "I think what he means is 'good morning you two'." With her usual grin she hopped off from the desk and approached the two new arrivals. "So what's this meeting about anyways? We should get it started soon if we wanna make it to class on time." She knew they were missing someone but as far as she knew he probably wasn't coming anyways.

"He wants me to kill him, he is begging for it." Lamilius mutters to himself reading the text Haruo sent him. A large frown crawled down his face, as he cracked his knuckles in Preperation for when he smashed Haruo in the face. Looking up he noticed he had arrived at the school. A smile returned to his face when he straightened his glasses, and then stepped through the gates to school.

With a little smirk Lamilius muttered to himself "I should almost wait another 20 minutes before going to the club room, but that's not my style."

Approaching the door to the club room Lamilius notices everyone had already arrived. "Hey Haruo clench your teeth" Lamilius says stepping through the door.

"And where the hell were the two of you?"

"Sorry, I got a little sidetracked." Arisu said, with the barest hint of fluster. She wasn't going to go and say she had almost slept in. Especially not when Koyama seemed irritable enough already, she didn't need to add more fuel to his fire.

"So what's this meeting about anyways?" Kana spoke up, seeming to extinguish Koyama's flames.

Arisu glanced towards Haruo, wondering if he'd speak up. It was his meeting, after all, and he knew more than her about the twins. But, nobody got a chance to speak, for Lamilus chose that exact moment to burst in, challenging Haruo. She had to be honest - she was surprised he had even showed up, as out of anyone in the group, Lamilius seemed to show the most contempt for Haruo, especially after Chiharu's death.

"Perfect, we're all here." Arisu said, giving Lamilus a venomous stare. "Now, before Kusanagi ruins the entire meeting, it's about the two transfer students."

She glanced once more towards Haruo, idly smoothing her skirt with a free hand. Nervous, subtle tells. She didn't want to be the one to speak, but Lamilius seemed to be the focus of attention. "Tsukehara... he believes we've observed them long enough, and it's come time to approach them. Now, does anyone have any classes with those two?"
