Enju Aihara

Enju Aihara (藍原延珠 Enju Aihara) is a 10 year-old girl who is partnered with Rentaro Satomi as his Initiator. She has Gastrea blood running through her veins.

Appearance
Enju Aihara is a ten years old girl with several prominent features; standing clear to the naked eye being her long crimson hair. She keeps it split into two ponytail at the back, portraying her small body's structure and leaving the back of her skull slightly bare if not for the small portions left untouched. The two respective ponytails elongate below her knee and close to her ankle. Her forehead is covered by bangs split in the middle, each side reaching to her eyes and covering the sides of her cheekbones. Features from her face showcase oval eyes with red irises and extremely tiny black pupils. Standing above her eyes are thin eyebrows arching around their composition, along with thick, black eyelashes. In addition to her small structure, Enju possesses small lips as well as a mild round nose.

Enju's clothes consist of a small orange sweater with several square-like designs on the hoodie and some frontal areas, further; along the outlines of the sweater, the edges are bent upwards and display two white buttons engulfed in many square figures. A silver zipper can be spotted along the center: used to keep both sides in place. On the inner side, the side facing Enju's back, non-square figures can be visibly noticed. Underneath the sweater, Enju contains a white blouse with a skirt held up by a moderate sized belt. Enju's choice of foot ware is two boots with high-black talons. The boots display a rather intricate design; multiple straps encompassing them and a white pair of socks on the inside. The boots are of a black and purple color. The eye catching accessory on her is two pallet-like objects encompassing her ponytails, each baring bunny figures.

Personality
Enju is a sweet girl that likes making friends, and believes that she will protect them with her special abilities. Her statement is proven true in actions when, despite being mistreated when the kids at her school found out that she is a "cursed child", she ultimately destroys a Gastrea parasite and solely thinks of the kids at her school whilst weeping violently in Rentaro's arms.

She is also rather lively, as Mai, a school friend, claims; always smiling disregard the situation. However, she feels pain when young girls like her are also mistreated because of the blood running through them. This is further stated when Rentaro ignores a cursed girl being mistreated in front of his eyes: Enju confronts him with her anger purring in the air violently.

History
Enju was born around the time "Gastrea" first began to takeover mankind, and inherited the blood from said parasites.

As time progressed, she became an Initiator and began to work for Civil Security alongside Rentaro, who she did not get along with at the very beginning; attacking him after sequentially being introduced to the latter.

Civil Security arc
Speedily entering the fray, Enju kicks the Gastrea as she states that she won't let it kill people, sending it back into a wall and instantaneously ending its life. Enju, giving her back to Rentaro, tells him that he let his guard down too early and admits that watching his earlier fight was unbearable. She then looks at Tadashima, who questions her sudden appearance, and tells him that she is Rentaro's Initiator: revealing her name in the process.

Enju informs Rentaro that 10 minutes prior to his arrival she encountered the Gastrea before it changed form, with the infected man being Sumiaki Okajima; whom tells her to apologize to his wife and child before turning into a Spider Gastrea in his stead. Fighting it and getting several injuries upon starting, she claims that she was hit by a sticky substance that grounded her and prevented her from helping Rentaro when she saw him entering the area with Tadashima.

Currently conversing with Tadashima, the man questions the flare in Enju's eyes the moment she entered the battle, with her reply being that she is an Initiator. She pulls on Rentaro's arm and, without warning, kisses him. He moves back as she admits that when she was not around he fought bravely, but kicks him in the crotch for leaving her behind. Once on the ground, Rentaro notes the injury on Enju's back, prompting Tadashima to asks if they need an ambulance, but is denied as she rapidly recovers by using her Initiator abilities. Shortly thereafter, Enju calls Rentaro and tells him the Gastrea's dying words, receiving a shallow look from the boy. Minutes later, they part ways with Tadashima as Enju reminds Rentaro about the limited sale, rushing to the location. Along the way, Enju notes the height of the Monolith, which are meant to keep Gastrea at bay due to its strong magnetic force created from Varanium. When suddenly, they get a call from Tadashima, who informs them that they forgot the reward, causing Enju to sadden as they keep walking back to the company.

The Cursed Children arc
Arriving back, a tired and sleepy Enju heads home as Rentaro goes to see Kisara Tendo, the president of their company.

At night time, Enju and Rentaro eat dinner, with Enju delighted with the latter's cooking abilities and even questioning if she will one day learn to cook like him. However, after telling her that shell will learn soon enough, he announces that it's time for her shots. She rolls the table to the corner and extends her arm out in front of Rentaro, who inserts an erosion shot into her. Lost in his thoughts, Rentaro is asked by Enju if it's already over, with him responding positively. The two then get ready for bed, but Enju expects something else as she holds her arms out and tells Rentaro that her heart is ready, but the teen simply falls asleep. Angry, Enju attacks Rentaro. The next morning, an energetic Enju brings a bike with her, ready to school when suddenly the television captures their attention. Seitenshi along with Kikunojyo Tendo appear live, shocking both Enju and Rentaro.

As they watch the news, Enju notices that the man standing next to Seitenshi is Rentaro's adoptive grandfather, prompting her to question Rentaro. However, before she can watch the entire news, she is pulled by Rentaro who claims that if they keep watching television they will be late for school. On their way to school, she comments on how the scenery looks like "Rome" as they ride down several beautiful streets. Along the way, Enju begins to wave hello to civilians, causing Rentaro to ask her if she is happy at school, with Enju giving him a positive reply. When they finally arrive to school, she is told by Rentaro to keep her identity a secret, but she affirms that she knows already as her friend Mai approaches her; walking to class together afterwards.
