"Momo!" a voice called "Hurry up! We're gonna be late for school!"
"I'm coming Rangiku,calm down!" Momo called and flew down the stairs. Wow it's the first day of 10th grade! Momo thought. I just hope Rangiku,Toshiro and I are in the same class again this year.
"Morning Momo! You nervous? Or are you just excited to see Toshiro again?" Rangiku teased
Momo blushed. "No! I'm just excited to see what class i'm in this year,thats all." Momo muttered,hoping she wasn't blushing anymore.
"Sure,ok then." Rangiku smiled. "I just hope Tsukishima and the rest arent in our class this year. They were annoying." she added as they headed out the door.
"Didn't you date Tsukishima?" Momo asked "Yeah,but that was a big mistake. He's a jerk. I hope there are more cute guys this year." sighed Rangiku
Rangiku is lucky, Momo thought. She has such a curvaceous body and fun personality,its muttered,hoping she wasn't blushing anymore.
"Sure,ok then." Rangiku smiled. "I just hope Tsukishima and the rest arent in our class this year. They were annoying." she added as they headed out the door.
"Dinot hard for her to attract guys. But unlike her ,my small figure is barely anything...I wonder if Toshiro...
"Why do you look so down? If its because you didn't do your summer homework, don't worry about it. I didn't do it not like -"
"Rangiku,Momo,wait up!" a cheerful voice called from behind them.
"Orihime!How've you been?" Rangiku called and slowed down
"Good! I found new recipes online that I really want you guys to try! Oh,and over the break, I came up with 'Basket-Golf!' It's really fun! Maybe after school or something I can show you how to play!" Orihime responded
"Sounds great Orihime! But I can't today, I promised I would help Nanao at the library." Momo said
"Thats fine! Oh and Tatsuki said she'll meet us with Rukia in front of the school. Do you think bean paste would..."
Momo zoned out. Everythings normal and fine. But why do I feel like somethings wrong? Momo wondered and sighed.
Suddenly Rangiku was shaking her. "Momo! Orihime was asking you something. Are you okay? You've seemed out of it lately." Rangiku asked,worried
Momo pretended to laugh. "No,i'm fine,really! Too much reading i think." Momo reassured them.
"Anyway,like I was saying," Orihime continued, " Are you still watching Naruto Shippuden?"
"Yeah,i forgot what episode i was on though. I think its 135. I don't know,i'm at the part where Sasuke and Itachi are fighting. But in the manga I'm at the part when Pain attacks Konoha." Momo answered.
"Really? I'm just waiting for the war episodes to come out. You got some catching up to do Momo!" Orihime laughed
Momo smiled. "Yeah,i guess so."
Karakura High School came in to view.
"Hey! Orihime,Momo,Rangiku,over here!"
Tatsuki and Rukia came walking toward them.
"Hi Tatsuki,Rukia! How've you been?" Rangiku asked
"Great! We got new members at the dojo and a few of them are really good!" Tatsuki shared,obviously proud of the progression the dojo is making.
Orihime smiled. "What do you think Ichigo is going to be wearing today!What about a tuxedo?Or a robe?Or maybe a -"
"He's going to be wearing the school uniform. Lets stop before you say loin cloth." Tatsuki said,stopping her friend from going any further
"Tatsuki and I checked which classes everyone's in. We're all together!Except for...," Rukia hesitated, "Momo."
Momo paled. How come I have to be separated from everyone? Momo thought.
"I'm just kidding! We're ALL in the same class!" Rukia laughed
Momo relaxed. "Thank goodness! Don't scare me like that Rukia!" Momo laughed nervously
"But there's also bad news," Tatsuki sighed, "Our class also-uh-oh."
Everyone looked past Tatsuki.
Tsukishima was standing over Toshiro,shoving him.
"Watcha gonna do shortstack? Call your elf friends?" Tsukishima sneered, knocking Toshiro to the ground.
"Toshiro!" Momo screamed
"Stay out of this Momo!" Toshiro panted
"No! Toshiro they're hurting you!" Momo yelled and started running toward him.
"Momo,you idiot!" Toshiro yelled, scrambling on to his feet, "I'm fine!"
Tsukishima knocked him down again. "What did you just say? Nnoitra grab the girl!" Tsukishima ordered.
Momo was suddenly grabbed by a tall,skinny guy. "Let me go!" Momo yelled
"Not until your friend is beaten to a pulp!" Nnoitra laughed
Tsukishima punched Toshiro hard in the face,knocking him unconscious.
