One month later.
It took me awhile to recover, but I'm glad I'm finally back. To think I've actually missed school, Karin has been constanlly asking me of I was ok. Toushiro walks in to his English class, and sat down in his seat. It had become awfully quiet, since Rangiku transfered back to Seretei high with Momo and the others too.

When I came back and found out that Momo was gone, I didn't know why but I felt lonely since then. Just when class had finish, he made his way down to the lunch hall to meet with Shuuei and the others. Karin surprisingly wasn't there yet.

"Hey, where's Karin?"Toushiro asked.

"Detention with Mr Kurotsuchi, same with Kira and Renji"Tatsuki replied, taking a bite out of her sandwhich.

He sees Shuuei, busy talking in the phone.

"Ok, yeah I can't wait to see you as well. Tell th em I'll be on my way. Also I'll bring some friends along too. She's busy?.... That's ashame. Yeah we will come"Shuuei said.

I wonder who he's talking too. The doors burst open and in came Karin, Renji and Kira who were still laughing.

Toushiro rolled his eyes "What did you guys do?"

"BLEW UP THE SCIENCE LAB!"Renji shouted.

"Karin?"Toushiro said.

"It wasn't my fault, I had know idea what they were doing. But when they told me, I couldn't help but join in"Karin explained.

"Exactly, even Izru couldn't resist this time"Renji said.

"So Toushiro how was English?"Karin asked.

"Quiet"Toushiro said.

They were all silent then. They knew I missed Rangiku, when my father told me that Rangiku was my cousin I couldn't believe it. But it was true, no wonder she always seemed familar to me.

" So, Shuuei who were you talking to?"Tatsuki asked, changing the subject.

"Rangiku"Shuuei said.

Toushiro froze he hadn't heard her name in so long it was strange.

"What did she say?"Tatsuki asked.

"That I should visit and I also said that I'm bringing you guys. So what do you say?"Shuuei said.

Everyone nodded, but Toushiro.

"Toushiro.."Shuuei said.

"Sure, so when?"Toushiro said.

"Right now, don't worry I got passes out of school for all of us"Shuuei said.

"When did you plan this?"Toushiro asked.

"A while ago"Shuuei said.

Moments later, they were at the front gate.

"So how do we get there? Car, plane a portal"Karin said.

"Something like that, but first Toushiro get out of your gigai"Shuuei said.

Toushiro does so, he still found it a bit strange that he too was a shigami and that every time he saw his gigai on the floor. It still seemed a bit odd to him, everytime be got out of his gigai.

Once again, he was wearing the black kimono and white haori. Hyourinmaru was strapped safely behind his back.

Shuuei does the same, same with Renji and Izru. When he found out that Izru was a shinigami too, he was shocked. Izru wasn't the violent type at all.

"Ok, now. Unlock!"Shuuei said, a senkaimon appears in front of us.

"Tatsuki hold on to me, normal humans might get lost in between the two worlds. Karin you stat close to Toushiro ok?"Shuuei said.

Karin nodded and held my hand, and we stepped inside the gate.

In Seretei, Momo was busy in the recording studio.

"So you told her yet?"Ikkau said.

"No, she's been doing so well and focused on this new song I don't think I should disturb her"Nanao said.

"I know that, but she will see them you know"Ikkau said.

Nanao sighs, "She will just have to face it"

"-and Hayashi?"Ikkau said.

"Him too"Nanao said.

"Guess your right, Hina do you need a break?"Ikkau said.

"No, I'm alright"Momo said.

To think it's been a month since then it's hard to believe, Momo's been working hard for the upcoming concert but she's even forgetting her own birthday. Rangiku sighs, they should be here soon.

Suddenly a gate open appears in front of her, out came Shuuei and Tatsuki, Renji and Izru, Karin and..

"Toushiro....!"Rangiku said. Her crystal blue eyes met his turquoise ones.

"Rangiku"he said, she hadn't changed much apart from she had grown a bit taller about 2-3 more inches or so.

She ran up to me and hugged me.

"Gomen"she whispered.

"It's okay"Toushiro said. After they stopped hugging.

Toushiro took a look at the place, seretei was a big place. There were many buildings too.

"OI, Matsumoto!"a voice said. Toushiro turns around to see a guy with black hair and wearing sunglasses.

"The bar later on ok, and Abari and Kira you have to come as well"the guy said.

"Will do"Rangiku called out.

"Your still drinking?"Toushiro said.

"I can't help it, besides it's a habit"Rangiku said, twirling her hair.

"Its been awhile Rangiku"Karin said.

"Yup it sure has, and oh ummm..Do you guys want to come with me to the recording studio?"Rangiku said.

"I would love too, but I need to check on my squad. I'll bring Tatsuki with me"Shuuei said, leaving with her. Renji and Izru too left.

So that just left me, Rangiku and Karin.

"Ok, of to the recording studio"Rangiku said.

Once we got there, Toushiro and Karin were shocked. The entire recording studio itself was bigger than the whole of Diamond Academy.

"YUMI, ISA! IKKAU! NANA!"Rangiku shouted.

"Were in here Rangiku"Yumchika called out, we were lead in to one of the rooms.

"Well well it's been awhile Hitsugaya, your all healed now?"he asked.

"Yeah I was only released 4 weeks ago"Toushiro said.

"--Hitsugaya?..... Oh shoot...."Nanao mumbled.

"What's wrong?"Rangiku asked.

"Hina is here"Nanao said.

Toushiros eyes drifted on to the other room, you could see through the glass case. A girl with ling dark brown hair dyed with light brown streaks, wearing a black top and jeans sat on the chair, holding a guitar.

Toushiro recognized her immediately, even though she changed. He could still tell.

"Momo"he said.

Momo obviously hadn't seen them cause she continued on singing.

"A dog that was raised,
the earth I was born on.
Becoming in a daze, club activities

Us different people
Could have had our dreams
Carried on with the wind

Becoming an adult we could have been
Given our roles
Inceresing smiles, a compromise with reality

Was a board without restraint, it's hard
For it to be pushed through
The heart indefinitely
Don't you think?

Feelings come
and swell up inside
Even if I can put them into words

They can't become my voice
Hide and Seek like days
Although such things

Are right at my side
They won't become honest "Momo sang.

She stopped, and dropped the guitar.

Shoot, she's seen me.

"I didn't think we were having guest's over today"Momo said.

"Sorry, I didn't know either Shuuei just told us"Nanao said.

"HINA, you were amazing!"Rangiku said, hugging her.

"Mou, Ran"Momo said. Rangiku let's go of her.

She turns to face me.

"Glad to see you've recovered Hitsugaya"Momo said.

"Uh yeah"Toushiro said.

"HINA! Where's that little star of mine!"a voice said, they turn around to see a tall guy with green hair.

"Ryo-kun, stop saying such things I'm not that famous"Momo said.

"Ok ok I get it that you won't admit it yet kiddo"Ryo said.

"These are my friends Kurosaki Karin and Hitsugaya Toushiro. They came for a visit with Shuuei-senpai"Momo said.

"I see, wait Shuuei is back? I'll go check on him as well. See you Hina, and oh your supose to be in the dance hall now"Ryo said, leaving.

"Uh well, you guys can come too if you want, but it's only me dancing probably won't interest you guys"Momo said.

"Its fine, we will come"Toushiro said.

We walked to the dance hall in silence.

"Hina!"a voice said, Momo turns to see Hayashi.

"Hayashi-kun?"Momo said.

"Yup, by the way I came here to say that I have a free hour later on and that if you want to hang out?"Hayashi asked.

"Ah gomen, I have a photo shoot later on as well, and teaching kidou to the new shinigami"Momo said.

"Oh"he said, disappointed.

"I'm really sorry, maybe next time"Momo apologised. He nodded and left.

Once we got there, Ukitade was there waiting for us.

"Hina, get changed quickly! The soitaicho has been waiting for ages"Ukitade said.

"EH?.... But I only just got the message"Momo said.

"I know, sorry but it seemed Ryo only just told you"Ukitade said.

Momo nodded and headed to the changing rooms.

"F..ather?"Toushiro said, shocked. He hadn't seen him in years and he only came to visit once in awhile.

"Hi there Shiro, it's been awhile"Father said.

"A while? It's been years. Where have you been? And wait your dressed as a shigami so..."Toushiro said.

"Ill tell you the tale shall I?"Father said. Toushiro nodded and they all sat down.

Once he finished telling the story, he was wasn't really shocked.

"So this must be your girl Shiro?"Father said.

"Yeah"Toushiro said.

"I'm Kurosaki Karin, nice to meet you sir"Karin said.

"The pleasures all mine, I'm Hitsugaya Ukitade Juushiro"Father said.

Just then Hyourinmaru pops out.

"Oi, what on earth are you doing?"Toushiro said.

He walks over to a girl with brown hair, he recognizes her as Momo's sword.

"Leave him be, they must of missed each other"Father said. He nodded.

Sooner or later Momo came out, wearing a brown dancing outfit. Toushiro couldn't help but stare, she looked amazing.

As she starters to dance, Toushiro didn't stop watching her. Once she finished, he couldn't help but think that was amazing.

She's dancing again too, it brings back so much memories.

"That WAS BAD HINA, if you can't get this right! We won't be able to win "a voice shouted.

Toushiro turns to see this lady with dark purple long hair.

"Gomen"Momo said.

"It's fine. Take a break, in fact I'm cancelling all your appointements from later on. Have the day of, and hang out with your friends"the lady said to her.

"But.."Momo stammered.

"You haven't had a single break at all, I'm worried. Your dancing usually is so graceful but something's wrong with you today "she said.

Momo? I wonder what's wrong with her. Moments later she comes back.

"So.. you guys want to hang out? I have the afternoon of"Momo said.

"Uh sure"Toushiro answered.

"Yesss! Shopping spree in Jyuun!"Rangiku said.

"No Rangiku, you still have paper work "Momo said.

"That doesn't matter, paperwork can wait"Rangiku said.

"Your really lazy aren't you?"Toushiro said.

"Humph, my taicho can do the rest she doesn't mind "Rangiku said.

In the tenth squad barrecks, a certain taicho sneezed.

"You got a cold taicho?"Tsukusa asked.

"No"Ameri said.

"Then some one must be talking about you"Tsukusa said.

She nodded and just when she thought she finished all the paperwork.

"Taicho, there's another stack here"Tsukusa said.

Tsukusa handed them over and there was a note from Rangiku on the top.

Enjoy doing my paperwork
I'm taking the afternoon of

Love your fabulous fujitaicho

Rangiku

"MATSUMOTO!"Ameri shouted.
