Backstory 100 words minimum:(optional)
Born in the Tohoku prefecture of Japan Kanto Kanei was the first child to a young couple, having him at the early age of 23 years old. His upbringing was humble due to his parents' young nature, raised in a small apartment within the outskirts of Fukushima, he would spend most of his early childhood exploring the shoreside of the town with the few friends he was able to make. Entering secondary school, he would struggle to keep his grades up in the cutthroat educational system of Japan, always being placed near last place in his classes and never being awarded anything academically, though his academics may have been lacking and his effort in classes minimal in comparison to his enthusiasm for religious studies. Having grown up in a hardline religious household, this would cause a fracture in his thoughts behind taking school seriously and wanting to spend time within the church. Through his religious studies, he would make his way through school his grades always on the verge of failing out of classes and not being able to pass school, though there would be one shinning part of his school time working with the school newspaper, having worked at it during his time through secondary school into high school. After Highschool Kento and his two younger brothers were looking to escape the economic crisis in Japan which would lead them to Wisconsin were in order to feed and get his brothers somewhere to live he would take on the role of editor at a local newspaper, while balancing out his college classes on the side, by doing both he would struggle through school as always but it would soon bear its fruits when he was offered a permanent role at the madison gazette the largest newspaper in Madison Wisconsin, though the job would not last long as he quickly left the big city having grown sick of it taking his brothers with him to a small town called East Falls.

None
Write a small article make it unique and in your own style 100 words minimum:
*a slight knock would be heard on the door as a newspaper was dropped onto the front porch the young kid waving to the home owner as he got back on his bike leaving for the next house, as you picked up the news paper a picture would be visible of two masked men standing before the power plant*
Heroes or Villains, citizens taking up a mantle of violence or heroism.
As of recent, there have been countless reports of citizens seeing two masked men running around town wearing outfits to a popular Japanese show, unknown across most of the United States, it has seen widespread. Success as a staple show to a lot of children in Japan including myself having watched the show, while there is not any information yet on what they are doing, there has been reports and even sightings of them entering dangerous areas around the town and even been seen with the cops while they are doing routine patrols around town, could this be vigilantes hoping to help protect the town? With violence in East Falls on the rise and numerous cases going unanswered as of now, it always stands as an important question what is the sheriff doing and what do they plan to do about the rising crime rates among citizens here, perhaps we are entering a new era of community policing like we are seeing in a a lot of larger cities around the country where private citizens are taking up the job of the police and patrolling their own communities to find criminals. Perhaps we will take out another page from Flint, Michigan, with how our policing is done, the rising crime, and the upfront behavior of vigilantes like these.
Write an interview stage about the article 100 words minimum:
*a click would be heard as a clank would be heard the sound of a ceramic mug hitting his desk the dim light from the monitor filling up the darkened room, the user's eyes narrow down on a small response to his email sent* "These late night responses aren't going to help me get anywhere" *as he simply brushed it off before walking out of the room his screen left on to the email response 'I am available tomorrow to speak'*
*As the sun began to rise the room filled with light as a beep would be heard from the distance a coffee machine finishing as the aroma of fresh coffee filled the air a sleepish sluggish reporter walking up as he he filled two coffee cups placing them before him and a guest milk and sugar within two cups beside them, as his hand laid still for a moment before a click would be heard the voice recorder starting to spin up as the two spoke*
Reporter:
*as he placed both hands on the table looking to the man before him a smile covering his face as he fought back yawns his eyes blinking in and out* "Could you please start by stating your name and age"
Terry:
*taking up the small cup he put some milk and two cubes of sugar, the sound of a metal spoon hitting the side of the cup would be heard* "My name is Terry and I am 21 years old"
Reporter:
*as he took a sip of his coffee a slight sigh came from him as his eyes looked down to a paper before him a small hum leaving him* "Now as we spoke earlier about over email, you said that you had seen a group of costumed individuals paroling around the town and got a photo of them?" *as he showed the photo*
Terry:
*nodding to him as he took up the cup, wrapping both hands around it, the warmth coming over his hands as he smiled* "Yes! I was walking around like normal, taking photos of the wildlife for a college paper, then saw these two outside of the power plant dressed as such."
Reporter:
*nodding along as he spoke, his hand sliding over a few papers to his side as he took up his pen the ink running out of it as he took down notes "Did you witness them do anything at all?"
Terry:
*placing the cup down as he stared into the coffee his face shaking around for a moment "Not at the moment, they just seemed out of place, it took until a few days later when I saw them running around with a few members of the police department."
Reporter:
*as he paused writing, the pen trailing on for a moment as he left a small dot on the page, hesitating for a moment.* "You have seen them more than once around the town?" *as he begun to write once more the ink starting to run dry for his old pen
Terry:
*nodding to the reporter as his eyes widened for a moment "You can't mistake those costumes- or outfits? They aren't like anything I have seen before around town."
Reporter:
*as he placed the pen down before looking to the small desk near them, a sigh leaving him as he stood up "Give me just a few moments to grab a new pen before we continue this."
