Gunfire. Explosions. The thick smell of smoke and sinew. Soukaku hadn't eaten in many days. Despite the raging war between the Oni tribes and military, the young girl was out looking for food. Her stomach hurt so bad, she was sure she could eat anything. She was still so innocent, that she didn't even realize the threat of the enemy soldiers. After all... she was just a young girl.

This was the day she'd met Tsukishiro. Nagi- she called her. An enemy soldier that defied all odds, and through a strange ritual... became partly Oni herself. At least, in blood.

These events took place many, many years ago. But Soukaku could still remember... through nightmares. This was part of the reason why she was so gluttonous today. Years of starvation had changed her.

Soukaku was an Oni. She aged slowly, possessed incredible strength for her size, and had light blue skin, a tail, and horns. Actually, she was born quite before Yanagi was. And yet, she was still so immature and young. She couldn't even read or write properly yet.

Soukaku had come into work with Tsukishiro Yanagi- H.S.O.S.6's deputy chief. Even grown up, she was still innocent and childlike. In the office, she often liked to draw pictures. They were quite crude, but cute in their own way. This is what she was busy with today, while Yanagi took care of some paperwork.

"Nagi! Nagi! Can we go eat now?" Soukaku asked her, rubbing her tummy. She was almost always hungry, but she hadn't eaten lunch yet!

Tsukishiro laughed lightly. "Of course, Soukaku. We can go."

It was off to the canteen. Soukaku and Yanagi would enjoy lunch together. While Yanagi wasn't looking, Soukaku planned to sneak some custard buns back to the office with her. Though, her plan was foiled when she accidentally bumped into another officer.

"Oww....! Sowwy.... I didn't see you..."

She had dropped her buns. Now she was trying to pick them back off. Certainly, a little dirt and dust wasn't enough to keep her from eating them.
