History[]
Background[]
Satomi Kusakabe was born in December 21, 1960. Sometime in her life, she married Souichi Kusakabe and had a son, Soji. A few years later, Satomi became pregnant with a girl, telling Soji that she planned on naming the child Hiyori. However on 1988, during a day out, Satomi and her husband were attacked by two Natives, who killed and took on their appearance, leaving Soji behind orphaned.

Some time later, the two Natives had their own child, and named it Hiyori from the wishes of Satomi's memories. However, the girl was raised entirely human, completely unaware of her own Worm nature. They were spotted by Soji, now known with the surname Tendo, who then developed a desire to avenge his fallen family. On the day of the Shibuya Meteor Strike, "Souichi" and "Satomi" were buried under rubble, while Hiyori was separated from them. As the rubble came and crushed both Satomi and her husband to death, Soji went off to care for his sister.
