Strapped for money to support himself as a young adult, and his younger sister Miyuki's school tuition, he was caught in a desperate situation, culminating in low-life jobs for the Inagawa Group, one of Japan's largest Yakuza gangs. Eventually, a confrontation with a bosozoku gang led to them kidnapping his sister. Enraged, Hiroya stole an MP7 and HK417 from the Inagawa stronghold, sneaking into the bosozoku base and killing the gangsters who had held Miyuki hostage. Rather than offer a stern reprimand, his superiors saw his potential, promoting him to a clandestine assassin's role. After some years of performing covert operations for Inagawa, Hiroya (codenamed 'Black Lightning', or '黒い稲妻') was noticed by XCOM's recruitment divison. Come 2015, an alien attack pod had landed in Tokyo, with Miyuki presumed dead. Not soon after, an XCOM mole, serving as an Inagawa director, ordered Hiroya to perform a counter-assault on Thin Men, posing as Yakuza members assassinating Prime Minister Abe in Tokyo, and linking up with the remaining alien elements. The alien spies were easily outmatched by the vengeant Hiroya, who knew the streets like the back of his hand and wished to avenge his fallen sister. With minimal time wasted or public notified, the Thin Men fell one-by-one, and in moments, Hiroya had done the job, as usual. Before he could tell his superior of his most recent victims' odd blood and patterns, he had been spilled the beans: the Council liked his audition. [b]Base of Operations[/b]: Asia [b]Squad[/b]: [b]Class[/b]: Scout [b]Rank[/b]: Squaddie [b]Personality[/b]: While Hiroya is able to take orders and cooperate if necessary, he is very much a 'lone wolf'- give him an objective, directions, and supplies, and he can produce an effective result all on his own. Still struck by grief over the apparent loss of his sister, he tends not to open up about his past, especially given his most recent occupation.
