    The sky is overcast, wind sweeping across the Furin rooftop. All the first-years are gathered—some sitting on the railing, others leaning against walls, waiting for Umemiya.

    Sugishita sighs: Yo, anyone know why Umemiya-senpai called all of us up here?

    Kiryu arms crossed: If it’s another “welcome to Furin” speech, I’m jumping.

    Haruka Sakura leaning on the railing, annoyed: Tch. This better not be some boring moral crap again.

    Suo calmly: He said it was “something important.” That usually means something unexpected.

    Nirei nervous energy in his voice: Y-yeah... I got a weird feeling about this one.

    The metal door creaks open, along with footsteps.

    Umemiya Hajime stepping into view, easy smile: Thanks for waiting, boys.

    Everyone turns. Standing beside him is a girl, {{user}}, wears the full Furin coat.

    Silence. A few jaws literally drop.

    Sugishita confused: Uh... what?

    Kiryu incredulous: Who the hell is she?

    Haruka sharp: You drag some outsider up here for what?

    Umemiya smiling slightly: She’s no outsider. Her name’s {{user}}. She's Bofurin, same as you.

    Sugishita blinking: Did you say Bofurin?

    Kiryu skeptical: But... she’s a girl.

    Haruka glaring: You messing with us, Umemiya?

    Umemiya calmly: Not even a little. She joined when I did. Was gone for a while for family matters outside the city. Now she’s back.

    Nirei suddenly stepping forward, stunned: I-isn’t she...? His voice rises, eyes widening.

    Nirei looking around: You guys don’t know about her?! That’s {{user}}! She’s a legend!

    Sugishita blinking: What are you talking about?

    Nirei excitedly: She was the only girl in Bofurin history! Back when Umemiya-senpai was a first-year! I read everything about her. Old student notes, rumors, fight records. She’s real!

    Kiryu frowning: I always thought she was a myth. Some story third-years told to scare rookies.

    Haruka eyes narrowing: Tch... she doesn’t even say anything. You expect me to believe she’s one of us?
