Chapter 4: Student Encounters

Birds chirped loudly outside the blue-grayish skies from Morehei-sensei's dojo. Soi Fong got up early, dressed into her traditional training clothes. She decided to take a jog around the neighborhood in order to be familiar with the streets of Karakura town. 'The human world is so different from the Shinigami world.'

While jogging, Soi Fong felt faint spiritual energies, 'Shinigamis?' Walking to the next corner, a bunch of students went inside the school's gate. It was the Karakura high school, the very school that Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Rukia attended. Boys wore matching white polo shirts or gray blazers and pants, while the girls wore their red ribbons with their gray blouse and skirt uniforms.

"Ho! You found Kurosaki's high school. Let's go apply. Its gonna be a shocker for him." Renji snickered when he came up behind Soi Fong and entered the school.

The 2nd division captain simply followed.

Ichigo's classroom.

A raven-haired girl in her school uniform walked inside the classroom, with her orange-haired companion. "So Ichigo what do you think of these clothes?" Rukia showed her sketch of a bunny wearing lolita outfits.

"Pft! You and your silly drawings again Rukia," Ichigo handed back the sketch.

"It's not silly! Studying your human society is an important aspect for me."

"Hai. Hai. Whatever. Let's get this day over with." the young man said with an annoyed tone.

"Bleh!" Rukia stuck her tongue.

"ICHIGOOOO! Did ya see? Did ya see?" Keigo asked excitedly, jumping up and down between him and Rukia.

"Uh? What is it Keigo?" Ichigo replied lazily.

Keigo held up two fingers. "Two transfer students. One of them must have transferred back. But the other one is definitely new! She is a serious looking girl, almost the same height as Rukia. I saw them by the office filling up some papers. They wear really weird clothes."

'Could it be?' Ichigo and Rukia wondered, going inside their classroom.

"Ohayou Kurosaki-kun and Rukia-chan!" an orange-haired girl greeted in her seat.

"Ohayou Orihime-chan!" Rukia returned cheerfully and Ichigo smiled in return.

A very tall dark-colored young man, walking with a person who had glasses also greeted the two.

"Hi Chad and Ishida-san," Ichigo addressed.

Right then, the teacher entered the classroom, "Everyone back to your sits, class is now in session."

1 hr. later

'Keigo! you baka liar…' Ichigo said mentally.

A loud boom of explosion smoked outside the window. His Soul Detector alarmed, making him panic, thinking that his teacher might notice.

"Sensei! Um, may I go to restroom? I don't think I can hold it anymore." Ichigo held his stomach and closed his eyes, praying that his teacher would excuse him.

"Go and hurry! Or you'll miss the lesson again Kurosaki!" she pointed to the door.

Ichigo beamed at Rukia, giving her a signal to come along.

Karakura high school's front courtyard

---

The Hollow had a white goblin mask and held a small axe. It laughed evilly, running around in circles and recklessly ran against Renji, knocking him against a wall that caused the explosion.

"ITAI! For a small Hollow. He packs a punch," Renji growled after the crash.

Soi Fong chased the impish Hollow trying to get a good target, "Flash Cry!"

A rapid destruction attack hit the imp and it was gone.

"Well that was easy," Renji dusted off his clothes "oh and look who's coming."

An orange-haired boy walked near them.

The 2nd division captain turned her head, 'The ryoka…'

"It's been awhile Ichigo," giving a trademark peace-sign.

"Same goes to you Renji. Thanks for taking care of the Hollow," Ichigo hit the redhead playfully. "Um, who's that?" taking a glimpse at Soi Fong.

"Let me introduce the 2nd division captain of the Soul Society, Soi Fong-san," Renji replied proudly. "Ano, Soi Fong-san this is Kurosaki- -"

"Kurosaki Ichigo, also known as the ryoka and substitute Shinigami who attempted to save Kuchiki Rukia," she crossed her arms and stared at Ichigo carefully. 'His the cause of Yoruichi-sama coming in the Soul Society.'

"Pleased to be acquainted with you too," Ichigo looked down at her from head-to-toe.

Rukia ran behind the background and stopped, seeing Soi Fong and Renji talking to Ichigo. 'Captain Soi Fong is here with Renji too? Wonder why...'

"Rukia!" the 6th division lieutenant blushed happily to see his old childhood friend.

"Renji! Glad to see you again," Rukia smiled and gave him a bear hug.

'YOSH! See that Kurosaki! In.your.face!' Renji thought joyously, returning the hug.

Ichigo plainly looked at the two liked he didn't care, "So what brings you here?"

"We're assigned on a mission from 1st division Captain Yamamoto to keep patrol for any Hollows and eliminate them." Soi Fong explained clearly.

"I see, so temporarily your jobs are kicking Hollow butt." Ichigo rephrased.

Renji moved his head up and down, "Yeah. The old geezer reported that more Hollows are appearing now and then. So as official Shinigamis… We're fully responsible for taking care of them. To tell you the truth this mission is pointless"

'So they're the ones responsible cleaning up, last night's Hollow attack,' Rukia thought.

"Yeah. we have everything covered here. I don't get it," the orange-haired reminded.

"Like, Abarai said, 'Official Shinigamis'" Soi Fong repeated irately. "Abarai, we should go back to the dojo. We're done here," walking out the school gate.

"Nani?" Rukia asked

"Yeah, we got jobs as Aikido teachers. We'll be staying in the human world for awhile," Renji followed Soi Fong. "Well, see you tomorrow! Laters!"

Renji waved back leaving Ichigo and Rukia.

'Keigo was telling the truth after all,' Ichigo watched the two figures disappear from his sight.
