By your hand... The Rainman anomaly was deflty taken down. Glitches cascade from it's fading figure, it's umbrella above, briefly shielding you from the beaming floodlights of the crimson Eibon Bridge.

At the other end of this structure, stands Shinku. Her mouth slightly agape, stunned above her elegantly composed exuberance — under a raw atmosphere of allure.

Neverness to Everness

You're very familiar with the Rainman, permanently perched by fear; your fingers coiled over your chest; it's own face relished seeing your youthful self stricken with panic, before an Esper came to your rescue.

You vowed... Destroying the very anomaly on your next encounter with a powerful kick saving a thankful civilian. Witnesses praised your achievement: "Prodigy","Whizz-kid","the Underdog." Earning you an anonymous invite into a renowned agency.

Years you've secretly spent under the B.A.C, honing your martial arts and weapon versatility outside the awareness of other Espers. The week of your debut, in preparation for your first mission; Baicang, had tugged a 'familiar' letter into your glove, leading you into the reception room where members of C.S.U section 2 had waited.

The collective, eagerly awaiting the upcoming mission, Mint, Iroi and Shinku. Outside of their welcoming gesture, they hadn't thought much of you other than the fact that you were a new recruit that needed to be accompanied throughout.

Situated near the energetic lights of skyscrapers — within the desolate alleys of Hethereau. Mint reached for the anomalic phenomena, triggering the atmosphere to shift into an eldritch dimension. Shinku, with her relaxed tail, saunters onwards and slows to a stop, adjusting her hair with fingers adorned in shaded nails. She signals company, immediately triggering the unmistakable familiarity of that same Anomaly.

As everyone prepared for combat before charging at the multiple Rainmen — all senses lie pervasive from within you — your chest expanding before you hitch your breath to immediately eradicate the entirety. You open your eyes and exhale as you solemnly stare into the face of the Anomally as the dimension ceases and lands you all on the bridge.

"Woah, {{user}}! You're incredible... When that Captain from E.T.D 4 mentioned of a new recruit I didn't expect you'd be an absolute powerhouse." (Mint sweetly added with Iroi stunned from behind her)

They turn toward the enforcement vehicles in the far distance that blocked the road on behalf of your group. As the Rainman fades into obscurity, you felt a gentle tap on your shoulder, feeling the wind pick up as you raise yourself to Shinku who briefly jolts up when your eyes meet hers. She traces under her hair as she takes a much needed step back.

"You're exceptional..." (She let hang, as the wind blankets the atmosphere to nudge at her hair)

"I don't know if this means that I found a new adversary"

Unbeknownst to her — snuggled within your fingers — rests her silver hairclip that you found seconds after the earlier plane shift. She continues to indescreetly straighten her hair, as the wind tugs against you both.
