Aiko reached Nymph's agency and stiffly walked through the door. She saw a few receptionists and quietly approached them. One of them noticed her and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Aiko gulped and nodded. "I'm here for my internship..."

"Oh! You're the UA student that Nymph told us about! I'll go ahead and lead you up to her office," the receptionist said, standing from his spot.

He guided Aiko up to the top floor of the building and knocked on the furthest door. "Nymph, the intern from UA is here."

He walked away as the door opened to reveal a woman with forest green hair, hazel-brown eyes, tan skin, and a flowy green and white hero costume. She gasped and said, "Oh my gods you are so much cuter in person!"

Aiko blushed and said with a slight bow, "Thank you for offering to intern me."

"There's no way..." Haru whispered, staring at Nymph intently and with disbelief.

"So respectful!" Nymph exclaimed, guiding Aiko into her office. 

"Well... my parents drilled respect into me because if I disrespect a spirit, they will likely try to harm me," Aiko explained.

"Oh! That reminds me, can you explain to me all the parts of your quirk? I wanna know what I'm working with," Nymph asked.

Aiko nodded and explained her quirk. "I see... that's a very powerful quirk! And I'm told that you have a ghost companion?" Nymph asked.

Aiko nodded again and glanced at Haru when she noticed that he was staring at Nymph with disbelief. Aiko quirked a brow and said, "His name is Haruki Mizuki, he was a UA student."

Nymph paled. "Haru...?"

"Ren...?" he asked.

Aiko shook her head in disbelief. "You know each other?"

"She's my little sister..." Haru whispered. 

Aiko's eyes widened before her eyes snapped toward Nymph. 'Come to think of it, they look very similar...' Nymph sniffled and said, "After all this time..." she smiled, "You're lucky to have such a kind companion, Gessei..."

Aiko nodded and asked, "Would you like to speak to him?"

Nymph nodded and so Haru possessed Aiko's body. "Ren...?"

Nymph teared up more and ran toward him, hugging him tightly. "I'm so sorry..." she whispered.

"It's ok, Ren. I'm here now..." Haru whispered, returning the hug.

They talked a little before Nymph calmed down and asked for Aiko. Haru left Aiko's body and Nymph smiled, wiping the tears from her eyes. "Sorry about that. Let's get onto business. Go down the hall to the changing rooms and change into your hero suit so we can get to work."

Aiko nodded and followed her instructions, changing into her suit. She went back to Nymph's office and said, "I'm ready."

Nymph looked up and gasped, "Your hero suit is amazing! What's your hero name?"

"Spectre..." Aiko stated.

"Oo! Mysterious, I like it!" Nymph exclaimed.

"Same energy as ever..." Haru remarked with a small smile. 

"Now, let's go out on patrol. Remember that you're not allowed to use your quirk to hurt anyone," Nymph explained before leading Aiko out of the building.

The pair walked down the street for a while before Nymph asked, "So Spectre, what are the main reasons that we heroes patrol?"

"So we can respond quickly when villains attack and to reassure the citizens with our presence," Aiko stated.
