AN: Okay, pay attention to what I do to Haru- he's not going to enter the Shinigami Academy right away. You'll see.

Chapter 8

The Idea of Moving

"Okasan, we're moving?" Asked young Haru sitting beside Ayame and Maiko facing their parents.

"Yes." Said Rukia.

"Why?" Asked Ayame.

"Well, we used to live in the Soul Society too." Said Renji. "We were once Shinigami and all of you can one day become one too."

"I guess it wouldn't be bad." Said Haru thinking.

"No it wouldn't. Haru, once school starts, you'll start attending it before you go to the Shinigami Academy. They'll teach you a bit on spirit power, but then once you turn twelve, you will be entering the Shinigami Academy." Said Rukia.

"What about me?" Asked Ayame.

"You'll be attending school too. But that's later. For a year while Haru's mainly in school, you'll be with your uncle." Said Renji.

"That stranger?" Asked Ayame.

"He's not a stranger Ayame- he's your uncle. Don't be rude to him." Snapped Rukia.

"Hai Okasan. . . ." Said Ayame meekly.

Renji winced. "Okay, time for bed- all three of you. Go. Make sure Maiko gets in bed too. I'll check on you later." Said Renji. The two older children got up and took a bow while taking their little sister by the hand and heading to their room. They walked down the long hallway leaving their parents behind, listening to their voices drift further away as they advanced through the hallway.

"Haru," Came the voice of his sister. "What do you think it's going to be like?" She asked, turning to him, revealing her serious face.

"I don't know. But the idea of becoming a Shinigami sounds cool to me!" He said.

"I guess." She said, and then she was quiet. They continued to walk, listening to the cute voice of their younger sister.

End for now
