Information about the new and improved Hikaru before you start the story:
Name: Shindou Hikaru (obviously, even if Hikaru is now a girl, let's keep the name)
Gender: A girl. Female. 100% Female. Don't forget it!
Personality: A mixture of Sai and Hikaru's personality with a little bit of occness. Hikaru is not a hothead anymore (well, most of the times) Hikaru is now a great actress (*cough* Liar *cough*), she can act elegant if she wants or arrogant, or childish. Her true personality is a true mystery that will be up to you to find out later in the story. A mysterious go player who hides a smirk behind a fan.
Appearance: ~As a girl~ A beautiful and cute girl with almost-to-waist length black hair (later she dyed it to dark violet after she had memories as Sai [A/N: Sai's hair is dark violet right?]) She has 2 yellow highlights, one on her bang, and the other on the other side of her hair root, a little farther back from her bangs. Deep with intensity green eyes. Fair healthy skin Always carries a fan.
~As a boy~ She wears a wig. And does some make-up to look more childish and boyish (you know, like the normal original Hikar) Black hair and blond bangs. She usually wears baggy clothes to hide her feminine figure. Eyes still green but a little cut back on the intensity (though sometimes she unconsciously becomes serious.) Always carries a fan, but usually keeps it hidden.
Stuff you should know:
- She is considered a genius and prodigy (and not only at go) Not that many actually know.
- She looks like she's taking stuff calmly but don't be fooled, she is a great actress/liar.
- In this fanfic, Hikaru is not so incredibly dense, she is more aware of her surroundings, but can be stupidly dense at times (or is she just acting?
- Still is head over heels in love with Ramen.
- Though she acts most times when she's out, she might once in a while lower her guard and let her true personality show which is a little sarcastic, blunt, and plain genius.
(Ex: Touya: Sai...Sai is behind you and is you yet not you... Hikaru: Your still on about this? You are too obsessed with go and Sai... Touya: When are you going to tell me? Hikaru: *snaps her fan shut and stares at him blankly* When you get a life. )
- Her parents may or may not be aware that there child is secretly a genius prodigy. Who is always calculating. Well, except her grandfather.
- She changed and become more wiser and childish (plus, slightly selfish) after her memories as Sai returned.
- Same as the original, she keeps many many secrets that are deeper than most people think. Of course thanks to that she keeps getting better at acting/lying every day.
-Her Grandmother has a hobby of creating fans. Hikaru kind of picked it up. And let's just say she has a massive collection of different kinds of fans. Her favorite is always a simple white one though.
Current events: At the age of 9 she started to have memories of her past life as Sai, however only started playing go when she was 12, but she knew the rules. Her mood and personality changed slightly and became more cheerful, childish, (slightly selfish), and wise (not to mention she suddenly knew extreme Japanese etiquette). However, she hid her new cahgnes so not many noticed. She also had memories of Shusaku (teaching him and merely being with him) And miraculously she knew how to play go. And she is really good. And I mean really really good. And her go gets better as she learns more about go (Shusaku learning modern go)
With her calm personality, she was able to get things under somewhat control. Learning about her past self, and about her new' hobby'. She's searching for the reason why she is playing go, not knowing exactly that she is a go-loving reincarnation.
A/N: I do not own Hikaru no Go. All credits go the creator. Any other credits will be mentioned in the chapters to come. First Hikaru no Go fanfic so don't judge. Hope you enjoy it!
