"Haro-chan c'mon get ready you have to go meet the Shinsengumi. After all you're going to start working with them today aren't you?" A tall man said cheerfully outside a room. His name is Arata and he is Haro Usagani's reliable friend. "I don't want to its too hot." She complained. Arata sighed and leaned against the wall. "You know it's your father's wish to meet the new police force, why don't you go for him like what he requested?" She was still in her futon facing the other way of the door, and was thinking of her deceased father. She remembered that he said he wanted to see how well the new police force the Shinsengumi was doing because his friend Kondou the commander was with them. And before he died he asked Haro to go visit them and maybe even see what it's like to work there since Haro is a skilled fighter even though she was only 15 and it was also against the law. Her friend Arata also fights, he's partners with Haro and always tries to be cheerful for his friend's sake ever since her father died.
Arata is 17, two years older than Haro and has been friends with her because of their family being close. He has shoulder length black hair that reflects as dark purple in the sun and light green-gray eyes. He wears a dark blue hakama over a light blue kimono. And though the two are best friends they both keep a secret to themselves. Haro was born with an odd ability to write stories and make them come true. The first time the two found out was when Haro was 7; she loved to write stories and had a creative imagination. Haro wrote about a small magical tree that always bloomed of flowers of every kind in the world growing in her yard in front of her room since practically no one but Arata goes there.
After she was done Haro went and showed Arata who was 9 years old at the time. After they both read Haro's story they found that exact same tree the next day in that exact same place Haro described. After that Shiro stopped writing. She was afraid that something would have gone wrong if she kept on writing such stories. Her imagination began to waver then she took more interest in fighting, and after letting go of writing stories Haro and Arata began to train for martial arts and using katanas. But Haro and Arata always remembered that day when Haro's ability came to life.
After getting Haro off her futon that afternoon Arata led Haro to the Shinsengumi headquarters. Stopping at the gate and looking around. "This is where they stay?" Haro asked. "Yep, I'm sure." Replied Arata assuring, Arata looked at Haro then back at the headquarters "Well, let's go." Haro smiled and walked alongside Arata. "I wonder what they're like, maybe they could also be my friends." Arata smiled back "I hope they're as strong as I guessed, if they are I'd want to spar with them every day." Haro chuckled at the thought. "Same goes for me."
