Hikaru Ujigawara

Hikaru Ujigawara is a 24 year old man and a participant in the Death Game. He currently works as an idol and lives with his best friend, Ayano Mori. Though them being best friends can be debated...

## Personality

Hikaru is generally considered a calm person. He does not resort to violence quickly, and isn't too loud or obnoxious. He simply sticks on the quieter side. He enjoys conversing with others one on one, and is not one to enjoy group activity. He enjoys thrills, almost to an erotic degree. That's all I say on the matter. He also does not seem to have a strong moral code of any sorts.

There is something to be said about how easy he is to fluster, now...

## Past

### Early Life

Hikaru had a relatively okay first few years of his life. He grew up in a wealthy household and barely every properly interacted with his parents. They were always out for "business". Hikaru, unlike his twin brother Ryo, was very social and outgoing, managing to make many friends.

### First Crime

Hikaru gets his start with murder at a young age. His twin brother was very heavily abused by the woman that tutored him, Mayu Arisugawa. He ended up stabbing her right in the heart, killing her. Young Hikaru tried his best to dispose of the body, but when all failed, he ran off into the nearby forest with the body in an attempt to hide. He felt terrible with what he had done. That was when a woman named Rye found him.

She offered him help. Rye was the leader of a small group that had just formed to take care of children who had nowhere else to go. Rye herself felt immense kinship to the young Hikaru; he reminded her of herself. And so Hikaru joined the group.

### Teenage Years

Going forward, many things would happen to Hikaru. He would meet too siblings. Cheri Molt, and Mint Molt. They were the other two members of the group, the other two "caretakers". The Molts began to take advantage of Hikaru heavily, sexually and physically abusing him.

Three other children also came into custody of the group, all of which are nameless for now. However, they all came from different backgrounds and countries. The group illegally traveled countries frequently.

The group failed to make much money, and they were curious as to what to do to make money. However, after witnessed Hikaru playing with one of the younger kids, the adults there managed to take note of Hikarus agility and slyness. And so they knew what they had to do.

He was an ideal assassin; a jackpot. They could make bank forcing Hikaru to kill others people had a grudge against. Rye was super against this. She wanted Hikaru to grow up without having to relentlessly kill people. However, her constant pleas of "Don't make him do this!" were blocked out.

Hikarus first kill was a 38 year old man. He killed him with ease and speed, and got paid extra. Hikaru did hesitate. He didn't want to do this. But soon, he'd just get used to the carnage.

Eventually, a girl named Ayano Mori is brought on to be a caretaker. Her goals were not as such. She wanted to out Cheris bullcrap; he had killed her s/o years ago and caused her to spiral into alchoholism and deppresion. This was the start of a long, complicated friendship between Ayano and Hikaru. One I'll get into...when I want to, hah!

A small event that is of note; Hikaru eventually got top surgery. It was given to him by Rye, shortly before she was kicked out of the group, in the back of a moving viechle. The scalpel she used was found in a dumpster and only haphazardly cleaned with a bottle of hand soap that most likely had some sort of fungi growing within. Hikaru was pretty much tripping balls during the entire process due to...well, psychedelics Rye had used in place of anesthetics. And to top it all off, it was a scorching hot Brazilian afternoon.

He also killed his mom, no big deal though.

When he was 17, it all came to a head. Hikaru began a relationship with Ayano Moris younger brother, Envy Mori, who Hikaru had been infatuated with. Envy was going to join the group so they could travel together, however, Cheri wasn't the biggest fan of this. Cheri hated Envy with a passion...so, Cheri killed Envy.

This riled up both Ayano and Hikaru. Cheri had killed Hikarus boyfriend and Ayanos only remaining family member. They had enough. And so? They plotted to kill him. On a cold night in some forgotten small town in Arkansas, Hikaru slit Cheris throat, killing him.

Post-murder, Ayano and Hikaru took the kids to Nevada where they would reside until they could find parents who would take them in; all the kids were orphans. Ayano also decided it was time for Hikaru to get a haircut, and took him to one of her good friends hair salon. This friend was named Barbara Jackson. Hehe...Barbara...barber...

And with a snip snap, snap snip, Hikarus hair was cut down.

After this, he moved to North Carolina with Ayano and the kids. He was 18. He didn't bother to try and rake any classes, but here he found a group of other kids around his age who'd been through similar things. Human trafficking, abuse, and forced crime. These kis were Mare Rosalynn, Mac Talon, and Dia Jones. All three were students at the local catholic school. Together they formed a small rock band called "ON THE ROCKS!", and they would do small concerts and publish one album. They mainly sung songs about the suffering they went through. Their songs had the general vibe of suppressed teenage angst. Hikaru was the lead vocalist, as well as the oldest member of the band. The youngest member, Mac, was only 15. The band ended up breaking up after Mare, the second oldest, graduated. They went to college and pursued a career in psychology.

Around the time he was in ON THE ROCKS!, Ayano pressured Hikaru into going to therapy. Here, he ended up just spilling his guts to the therapist, whos name was Layla. Layla diagnosed him with NPD, which was the only solid diagnosis she could work out.

### Closest to Now

The kids all found homes eventually, of course. Hikaru worked very hard to find them loving forever homes. Hikaru took on a solo career, mostly due to Ayanos pressuring. They moved away from North Carolina and rented out a very small 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment. They share the bedroom. He and ON THE ROCKS! still meet up. Dia ended up continuing her music career, joining a band and becoming the lead vocalist and guitarist of it, while Mac studied anthropology. ON THE ROCKS! still meets up every once in a while, and goes out on the town for a night before all return to their homes.

Hikaru never became famous, but he still has a small following, and-- well, I guess that brings us to the death game.

So yeah.
