Discovery:

A young boy of around the age of late teens, no older than 17 tops, was walking through his new school during his transfer from back home, He smiled and bowed to the students as he walked past them and they stared after him. He felt himself slightly embarrassed under his long, dyed blue hair, tied in a braided ponytail but keeping some bangs to hide his eyes and face somewhat, he was a well kept boy, tall and a mild tan on his body that didn;t show all that much. He moved around the crowded hallways as though there was no one there. He finally managed to find his classroom and opened the door. He noticed a few people still in the classroom as he opened the door and they all stared at him. The girls looked at him oddly for the most part but also with a hint of curiosity in their eyes. The Boy sighed and looked around. He noticed right away the distinctive color of orange in the back, along with the massive giant that was Sado and Inoue right away, the other two werenèt really noticed till after the girl had smacked the guy with orange hair in the jaw.

"Is everyone in this area like that?" he asked to himself slightly louder than he intended to and moved some hair out of his face to show a dark green colored eye.

"Ouch! What the hell was that for?" the Bright haired boy groaned, as he massaged his jaw, as the girl smirked at her triumphant blow.

"That was for going against what I told you to do last night against that Hollow." The girl answered rather coldly and icily to the boy in almost nothing but an undertone. The word Hollow catching the attention of the new boy. Just as the new boy was gonna come over and introduce himself the bell rang and the teacher came in.

"Now now everyone! Back to your seats we have a special announcement for this class today. We have a new Student in our midst today. He is an exchange student from North America, Canada to be more specific. Ahhh...I see he has arrived already in class." As everyone, including the small group stared at the new boy in class and he went slightly red from the attention and moved to the front of the class. "This is our new student, please treat him with respect and kindness." The teacher said as she was figuring on where to seat him. The small group started to move around and sit in their positions finally. The teacher nudged the new boy and he nodded knowing what she wanted him to do.

"M-My name i-is Zephyros Storms...I-i-it's a pleasure to be here with you all!" He finished with a quick bow and hid his face once more in his hair and stood up straight as the teacher tapped his shoulder.

"Alright Zephyros, you will be sitting in the seat behind miss Kuchiki-san. She's the one next to Kurosaki-san. Would you two please raise your hands so our new student may see you." As the teacher finished the orange haired boy and the girl that got him in the jaw earlier rose their hands. "Their you are Zephyros, off you get. Also you speak very fluent Japanese, I am impressed."

The young boy went red, not that many people would have noticed for his hair in his face. He rose part of his hair again and a few girls oooed when they noticed his dark green eye. He quickly walked over to Rukia and Ichigo's seats and sat behind Rukia and placed his things down. He was fighting hard not to ask her if her word of Hollow meant what he was thinking it might mean. He decided to wait for Lunch. During class there wasn't much excitement, Zephyros stood up to answer some questions and people were impressed with him, although he sucked almost horribly in math. He was managing to just get by in it. The Lunch bell rang not to long after his last math question and Zephyros was relieved. He started to get up to go talk to Ichigo and Rukia when two young boys came up to them one wasn't that much shorter than Ichigo but with brown middle length hair and the second boy was about Rukia's height with dark hair.

"Iiiiiichigoooo!" The browned haired boy shouted as he came almost running over. "What are your plans today for Lunch?"

"Meh...Dunno most likely go up to the roof to eat and chat. Why? You aren't gonna try getting me to get rukia to come along again are you Keigo? Your in on this too Mizuiro?" The Orange haired boy called Kurosaki Ichigo said, and he looked over to Sado and noticed him nod.

Zephyros looked in awe at this and Mizuiro noticed him looking in their direction and waved at him. Zephyros waved back and stood up. What happened next took him by surprise, Ichigo, with a frown on his face looked over at the boy and sighed. "keigo I am so gonna hurt you for this later..." He said to himself. "Yo! Arashi-san? You wanna come with us to eat for today?" He asked rather bluntly and straightforward.

Zephyros looked stunned at first but started to nod all of a sudden. "Ano...Eto...Sure...If you don't mind that is?" He picked up his lunch and started to walk with them to the roof where Inoue Ishida and Rukia were sitting already, waiting for them. Ishida noticed Zephyros first and scoffed and looked at him intently while moving his glasses up the bridge of his nose, then look away. Inoue on the other hand jumped up and held onto his hand and shook it vigourously almost knocking him to his feet if he hadn't knocked into Sado first. "Gomen..gomen!" Sado just looked at him and asked if he was ok, after a few times of answering yes he was finally able to sit down between Ishida and Ichigo, who seemed to be giving each other glares.

Rukia was first to break the akward silence. "Why'd you bring him here with Keigo and Mizuiro?" She asked in a sickenly polite voice that ticked Ichigo off a bit.

"I invited him here with us, since he is new and all, and sitting alone to eat isn't at all enjoyable... Got a problem with that?" He said somewhat through gritted teeth and smirked as Rukia was struck dumb.

"Kuchiki-san, Kurosaki-san...? I have a small question to ask you two after school, could you wait for me once school is done?" Zephyros asked somewhat timidly and looked up moving some of his bangs behind his ear and showing his dark green eye once more. Ichigo and Rukia were both struck dumb at this request and as Rukia and Ichigo were about to say no, they felt themselves compelled to say yes. Zephyros beamed at them and the talks began. Zephyros found them to be quite nice people, if a bit violent.

The Bell began to ring for the end of day and Zephyros was ready before the other two and was waiting outside, in front of a nice dark blue car. "I hope you don't mind if I have my driver take us to my home that I am staying at while I am here do you?" Ichigo was about to ask why the hell was he in their school if he had his own driver. Rukia on the otherhand smacked Ichigo roughly and nodded.

"We dont' mind at all, Arashi-san." once again in that irritable sickenly voice. Once all three of them were inside the vehicle Zephyros knocked on the window splitting the front seat from the back three times and the car took off at a steady pace, the windows where tinted and it was difficult to say where they were, it was nearly 20 minutes till they finally stopped.

"We have arrived to my home for the time being." As they stepped out to see a moderately large house with the gates closing behind them after the car made it through. Guards stood on the outside at all times and patroling everywhere. Zephyros looked at his watch and sighed. "He is always late... Ahhh there he is!" As a small white cart came up to them with a small gun on his side.

"Young Master! You are home early today!" The guard shouted as all three of them got on. "Who are they, young master? Friends?" Zephyros nodded and informed the guard to take them to the backyard and inform Maliki about coming to get them drinks. The Guard laughed and nodded. "He's gonna enjoy me asking him that, but I am glad you are making friends so fast, young master. Your Late Father would be proud of you, and the business he gave you is always thriving thanks to you." The other two looked at Zephyros increduously. He was the leader of a multimillion dollar company! They both thought in unison, bt not knowing they shouted in unison.

The three students got off and sat at a table near the glass door, While they sipped on tea and juice for Rukia. Zephyros looked at both of them and sighed. "I asked you guys to come cause I wanted to ask you some questions, about a conversation I overheard this morning with your group...what exactly is a Hollow? Is it a kind of creature of the spirit realm or something? I remember reading up on it once and I've also seen some before...At least I think..." The two looked at him as though he knew something that shouldn't be known. Zephyros smirked under the cover of his hair and knew that they were thinking fast on an excuse, but he would beat them to it. "Also, don't try to fool me, I am a formidable business leader and I can tell when someone is lying. so no excuses."

Ichigo spoke up this time cutting off Rukia who was gonna say something. "Hollow is just a word that means empty, That's all..." Out of nowhere though a rigning sounded and Rukia took up her phone and flipped it open.

"Ooops! I didn't know it was that time, I got to go. Ichigo can you walk me home too please?" Ichigo stood up with her and started walking out the gates till Zephyros stood next to them all of a sudden.

"I know what you two are...Don't try hiding it from me...Shinigami." He said all of a sudden with his green eye showing and focused on the pair.

Ichigo and Rukia froze on the spot and turned to walk away. "I know about you all. All that Reiatsu isn't hard to noticed. Should maybe try to figure something out about that." As he turned around and went towards his home.
