The Companion

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

Saiduq had told him what happened, as much as he could...although it was still confusing. Apparently, he found Mizar but...Mizar was gone, wasn't he? How could he back, and be in the JPs HQ, for that matter?

...How would he fit...? Wait, that wasn't important now! Besides, Kaito thought he had a good idea about that, since Saiduq wanted him to "talk" to Mizar. What if he's humanoid now? Nevermind that, how was he even alive!? What would look like? Would he be like Saiduq, or...?

Septentriones might not have been strictly evil but...Kaito brought his cell phone, just in case, and knocked.

"Hello?" He knocked again. ...Silence. Alright, here we go... "Sorry, I'm coming in." Kaito braced himself, opened the door, and stepped inside.

Sure enough, there was no large sphere in the room behind the door; to take such a form at a time like this would be foolish, of course. It was incompatible with the way the human race lived, and humanity's destruction had already been stayed by their own will.

Instead, it was a man; white-haired, in a purple jacket, with a remarkable physical resemblance to Alcor's own human form (though his bangs seemed to sweep the wrong way), standing on the far side of the room. If it wasn't for his-- considerably, more icy gaze, he could almost be mistaken for the star himself, with a different haircut and a change of clothes.

When Kaito walked in, he didn't even seem to take notice of the boy. He seemed preoccupied with the room he had been put in, and was busy gazing out the window in particular. JP's-- he knew about that. He knew about the Hotsuins too, though his knowledge of such was much more disconnected.

It was only one after a moment of Kaito's entrance that he actually seemed to take notice of him, as he turned away from whatever he was examining to stare-- both piercing and hollow-- at the boy before him.

"...You are the one He says Shines." It sounded more like a statement of fact than a question.
