Hyourinmaru speaking

'Toushirou speaking in his mind'

Chapter 6

Toushirou's POV

"Hitsugaya-taicho where are we going?" Hisagi asked me.

"It's time for lunch Hisagi and my grandmother's isn't that far from here, so we are going there

to eat."

"Oh," I heard him mutter.

I ignored him again, as I was lost in thoughts of Karin. 'I wonder what she looks like now?' I questioned myself. It has been eight years since I saw her last.

'I bet she's beautiful now,' Hyourinmaru said.

'Oh stop that!' I commanded back.

'Why should I. She interests you, therefor she interests me.'

'She does not interest me, her power interests me. It's been so long and I want to see how her reiatsu has grown. I bet she's as strong as her brother when she's trained right.'

'That's not all you want to see and I know it. Your thoughts are my thoughts, so you can't hid anything from me. Even if you wanted to.'

Why did that stupid dragon have to be right all the time.

I was about to tell him so when I felt something I've been waiting two weeks to feel.

Hisagi almost ran into me when I stopped in my tracks.

"It's not possible," I whispered.

"Hitsugaya-taicho what is it?" Hisagi questioned, looking a little confused.

"It cannot be. There's just no was she can be here."

"She? You mean to tell me you can feel this girl, this Kurosaki Karin do you?"

I was too elated to feel her presence that I took off running in the direction it was coming from. Though in the back of my mind I wasn't too worried about him, for I could feel him following me; though, he was having a hard time keeping up with me, but I didn't care. It was her. I was so close to finding her.

After a few moments of running, I realized where I was going. The feel of Karin's reiatsu was taking me straight to my grandmother's house.

'No way could it be so easy.' I thought, as I came up upon the house.

Stopping out front I could see my grandmother sitting on the porch looking out at the sky, just as I used to do when I lived here.

"Toushirou? Is that really you? My grandmother asked after she turned around at the sound of someone there.

"Granny is there a girl with black hair and gray eyes staying here with you?" I know I didn't answer her to greet her as I should have, but, again, I didn't care. All that was in my mind was Karin.

Looking a little taken back she answered.

"Why yes there was a girl here like that; though, Karin-chan left."

Damn it all to hell and back! Why did I let myself think it would be easy. This was Karin we were talking about after all.

"When did she leave? Where did she go, and when will she be back.?"

"Toushirou, she left over 6 days ago to join the Shinigami Academy."

This meant that she went to us not long after we went to find her. 'Oh boy!' I thought, this couldn't get any funnier if it tried. These last few weeks have been useless! We didn't need to find her, we just needed to wait for her to find us. I should have know better. When has Karin ever been the type of girl that needed to be found? Never! That's when.

"How was Karin? Was she doing alright while she was here with you?" I just had to ask.

"She was fine Toushirou. I found her the day she got here, almost the moment she got here. I knew right away that she was special. Just like you."

She had that kind knowing smile I missed so much.

"Thank you."

"Of course. I couldn't just leave her there."

"Did she remember much, or anything at all?"

"She started to remember her family; however, she still doesn't know names yet. I'm guessing you know her?"

"Yes I knew her. I met her years ago on a mission in the real world. I played a game of soccer with her."

"I though her dream was about you."

That through me for a loop. 'She remembers me?'

"She...she remembered me?" I whispered.

"That she did. She had more dreams about you then about anyone else."

'She what?! I wonder why that was.

"Mow that know she's okay, we can go back right?" Hisagi asked.

I had forgotten he was there! Though inside I might be shocked my face didn't show it as I told him yes.

"I guess I'll be on my way Granny. Thank you for your help."

She just smiled and nodded. I turned back to Hisagi.

"Call the others and let them know she's at the academy."

"Hai."

I know, I know. Short chapter, but the next one is much longer I promise.

I also wanted to say thank you to everyone that has reviewed.

So thank you very much
