All day, every day; it was always the same routine. Wake up at 0500 sharp, train all day. Fly, fight, eat, train, fight, repeat. Every. Single. Day. It had been like this ever since Keigo— er, Hawks, had been taken in by the hero commission. When a pair of agents had approached him and his desperate mother, they offered to take care of her needs in exchange for her son. She agreed..

The hero commission of Japan was absolutely ruthless, but of course, it was the result of their guidelines that produced top ranking heros nearly every year. However, sometimes they chose to run little side projects lesser known to the public. Sometimes, they'd take in kids from awful backgrounds to train like weapons. Hawks was one such recruit, another had come before him, he was a prime candidate.

Though one day, the monotony of the routine broke. He'd been summoned in the middle of the day from training to come to the dormitories, which his handler took him to. When he got there, there was a little surprise waiting for him. Another kid, another recruit, sitting there in a common space with her own handler standing behind her.

For whatever reason, there were two government owned heroes in training now. Hawks was ecstatic when he realized, finally seeing someone his age instead of agents in their 40s and 50s. A new friend to talk to, maybe this wouldn't be so bad!
