Kurikara RyoOh stared at Konoe with one eye in bewilderment. "You're shittin' me, right?" he half-growled, half-shouted at the older man.

From what he had heard about the man, he was the head of the division he was standing in. But, he didn't know what the man was capable of. So, it was best he kept his guard up.

His guard completely disappeared as a man barged into the office. Kurikara jumped to the other side of the room and reached for one of his swords. Almost having it removed from it's sheath, a long blonde haired man bounced into the room. "Hey! Konoe-san, have you seen Tatsumi anywhere?? I was hoping to get him to raise my budjet a bit... my sex-changing-potion is almost complete!" he shouted triumphantly.

"Ah... no I haven't, Kurikara-san! Put away that sword in this office!" the older man scolded.

"OH!" the bubbly blonde man shouted, turning around and shook hands with Kurikara fastly. "My name's Watari Yutaka! Born April 18th, blood type is O!!" he said happily.

Kurikara made a face, but ran through his mind was, 'He must've rehearsed that...'

The blonde man laughed loudly, but stopped when Konoe interupted him. "Why do you want to see Tatsumi-san, again?"

"Because, I poured some of my potion in his coffee earlier this morning, on accident this time, and I want to know if he's okay. Plus, I want a raise." he said, raising a triumphant fist in the air. The blonde man paused, "Do you have a name?" he asked Kurikara.

Kurikara snapped his head up, he hadn't realized he had been staring at the floor the entire time. "Kurikara RyoOh." he said, looking at Watari.

"As in the 'king of dragons Kurikara'?" Watari asked with a smile on his face. He wrapped on of his arms around Kurikara's shoulders. "So where you off to?"

"To see Tsuzuki." Konoe offered.

"I'll take you to him!" Watari said with a laugh as he pulled the boy-like figure out of the room with him.

"You can come out now, Tatsumi." Konoe said with a laugh and a shake of his head. The once proud secretary of Meifu resorting to hiding in the chief's office because of Watari. "We need to speak with someone who can reverse this."

"No kidding." Tatsumi grumbled, holding his pudgy arms in the air for Konoe to pick him up. The older man picked the now toddler-Tatsumi up in his arms and wrapped his coat around the boy.

"There, let's go." Konoe said, shutting off the lights and locking his office door.

Watari happily pulled Kurikara along to Tsuzuki's office that he shared with bon. Without knocking on the door he thrusted it open. "Hello!!" he shouted.

Tsuzuki, who had been napping, stood up quickly his drool covered papers sticking to his face. "Wha?!!"

Hisoka stared at Watari. "What do you want?" he asked with a sigh, and shook his head sadly. "I'm busy, Watari-san."

Watari nodded his head and pulled Kurikara into the room. "This is--"

"Kurikara RyuOh." Hisoka finished, "Pleasure to see you again."

Kurikara stared at Hisoka before smiling softly. "I hadn't wanted to meet again under these circumstances." he mumbled. "I'm sorry Futsunomitama attacked you out of the blue like that. He [?] shouldn't have done that..."

Hisoka smiled at the other boy-like figure. "It's okay. I'm fine."

Tsuzuki and Watari had moved to the same side of the room, so Watari was resting on Tsuzuki's desk while Tsuzuki himself had sat down. "Do you understand what's going on, Tsu-chan?" Watari asked with a puzzled face.

"They met before?" Tsuzuki asked, his face falling slightly with his answer. "How come I didn't know?"

Watari patted Tsuzuki on his hand and squeezed it, "It's okay, Tsu-chan. I'm sure Bon had just went on a solo mission for himself!"

"Why would he do that?" Tsuzuki almost whined.

"I have no idea, Tsu-chan."

Kurikara and Hisoka were now staring at the display brought to their eyes by Watari and Tsuzuki. "What?" the two asked in unison.

"Not only have they met before, but 'Soka and him have things in common!" Tsuzuki full out whined, his head now facing the ground.

"I'm sure Bon still loves you very much, Tsu. Just has an old buddy of his visiting today!" Watari offered with a smile. "You want to go raid Wakaba's fridge?" he asked.

Tsuzuki perked up a little, "Sure!" he said with a smile, "I'm hungry!"

Watari and Tsuzuki left the two men in the small office. "What was that all about?" Kurikara asked Hisoka, sitting on Hisoka's desk.

"Me and Tsu've been dating for a few weeks. He still doesn't know that I love him." Hisoka spilled before clamping his hand over his mouth, "What are YOU doing here??"

"Oh, I'm here to train all of yer shikigamis..." he said with a deep sigh.

"Ah."

"Are you going to take me to the Suzaku gate or what?" Kurikara asked, a little heatedly.

"Oh, okay." Hisoka mumbled, and the headed towards the gate with the master sword smith in tow.

Kurikara glared up at the Suzaku gate before shouting, "Hello?! Is anyone here??" he paced closer and looked at the top.

Two figures jumped down from their perches, "Why are you here?"

"That is none of your concern, Tengu." Kurikara answered coldly. "I have no business with you. Chief Konoe sent me to train their shikigamis."

"They do not need training!" the lighter haired one, Kotarou, yelled. "Now, what is your REAL reason for being here swordsmith?!"

The other one, Kojirou looked past Kurikara. "Kurosaki-dono." he greeted with a bow and Kotarou did the same. "What are you doing here with this scoundrel?"

"I'm here to prove his point. Konoe-san sent him. I only showed him the way to Mt. Kurama." Hisoka mumbled softly, he was becomming nervous without the feeling of Tsuzuki close to him and it was destroying his cool, calm demeanor. "Let him through the gates, he will harm no one. As long as they won't touch him."

Kurikara nodded and walked into the open gate doors with Hisoka in tow, he was thanking the tengu brothers for their kindness. Hisoka caught up with his pace and ran through the gates to wish Kurikara good luck, "I can't go back to Kurama Mountain. I've been banned..."

Kurikara nodded, "It's okay. I can find my way around here, easily enough." he muttered, gazing at the vast area surrounding the two. "I personally don't think that the tengu's want to tangle with me." he said more to himself that to Hisoka. "Well, you better get going." he added with a small smile. "I'll be fine. You worry to much, Kurosaki-kun." he added again, using his formalities with the other boy.

"Let's go, Futsunomitama. I want to see the reactions of the other shikigami's when they see me here." he paused before walking. "What fun."
