Bleach – The Heart of the Matter

By Tayla Drago

The first part of Sonia's training has been completed thanks to Byakuya to help her out with three other Soul Reapers and a healer as Ukitake to see the whole thing went well 'and some to be very scary almost', for both Sentaro and Kiyone to be told afterwards once they recovered. As Ichigo and the others back in the World of the Living were doing well a bit to have a good life for the past five days now. Hopefully, for them to talk to Sonia first before seeing her in the Soul Society again later…As she wakes up to be in a hurry to get clean up, eat, shower, dress, and such to learn about her next training; sadly, she gets a note saying to hang out with other Soul Reapers to be seeing her today at some fields outside of the area to be a very surprise, not as much as Momo getting a note saying something of Sonia who was the new arrival to go see today.

"Huh? What's this?" she looks at the note. "(A note to all lieutenants of the Thirteen Court Guard Squad members. It says...To the new half breed of a human and Soul Reaper name Sonia Yamamoto…!) What?! Head Captain Yamamoto has a relative?!" Momo continues to read the rest. "(It also says...To this person for some of us are willing to aid Sonia to get use of the little training of becoming a full time Soul Reaper, they must also show her the time of her life today outside the Rukon District. For those who want to, meet her there on the field to do some fun actives today. Huh? Fun actives today?) I don't understand? What did I miss?"

Sadly, she does remember what happen to her to be lucky that Momo's still alive at all from Sosuke Aizen stabbing her. For Retsu and Isane saved her life afterwards to heal back up 'which she did'. Upset from her own captain was a traitor and almost cried, for Hitsugaya to show up to try cheering Momo up. Well, he was really acting like himself to have strong feelings towards her a lot.

"Hey, Momo, I'm glad to see you're feeling better."

"Huh?" she turns around to see her childhood friend. "Ah! Toshiro!"

"Ah, Momo, it's Captain Hitsugaya, remember?" he corrects Momo. "How many times do I have to remind you?"

"A lot…?"

Getting to the point at hand for Hitsugaya tells Momo on what happened afterwards for a long story to try making it short.

"I see…Well, let me explain on what you've missed out." he tells her everything.

From the three Soul Reapers betraying the Soul Society, Rukia feeling better, the Bount invasion happened, Dracula has been brought back to life to take over all worlds, and Sonia who's the niece of Yamamoto's to finally get the whole story now. As Momo was fine to be fighting again from recovering and be treated in time to be surprise from all of this. Dropping the subject to find Sosuke was not her captain anymore but an enemy 'to take some time to settle in', she believes in Hitsugaya's words.

"(Oh, no…So Captain Aizen's a traitor just like Captain Ichimaru and Captain Tousen are too? How awful! And the last Bount who's the real Count Dracula's on the run, while Head Captain Yamamoto's niece name Sonia needs to become a Soul Reaper to get cursed by this Dracula monster? It's so sad...)" Hitsugaya then pats Momo on the head to get her off guard. "Ah! Toshiro! That's my hair! You're messing with it! Stop!"

He does to be messing with Momo, in other words – Hitsugaya really has a thing for her.

"Alright, I'll stop. Look, Momo, I need for you to watch over Sonia Yamamoto/Belmont for me for today with a few others. So if you wouldn't mind, please get going."

With Hitsugaya taking off right away, for he needed to do some paper work for some captain a lot more on Rangiku's end to finish up 'to be doing some of it for once' for her to do something with Momo to join in real soon. Her as well, huh?

"Huh? You mean me?"

"Also, my other lieutenant Rangiku Matsumoto will be there as well." he reminds his friend. "Best of luck to you. I place Sonia's trust in both of your hands."

Once he leaves for Momo to go to the area right away. For her and Rangiku weren't the only ones either, there were more…Such as 'of course' Kiyone and Sentaro to keep watch on Sonia for their captain Ukitake to be out for a while to come back later; same with Hisagi, Yachiru, Izuru, Ikkaku, and Yumichika to go do so right away to do some type of slow training with Sonia 'as she was still recovering a little to feel weak from the curse bite mark of Dracula coursing through her body or tries to' as she was staying strong. Speaking of Sonia…She gets to where she thought she was going to train at next but another note from her uncle says this was only to have fun playing something fun while making new friends, and that's it. Bummer.

"(Ah…! Again, with this? Uncle Moto…)" she was a little disappointed. "(I know I'm still recovering a lot and not just from yesterday's training, but still. Come on! How's recovering while playing with other Soul Reapers to be friends with? Even Jushiro said to me from whoever you'll be meeting with the other squads will make you happy to get through the day. What day?" Sonia then knows of the first two as they were spying on her to show up first. "There's no use in hiding, Sen and Kiyo, come on out."

Oops, they've been spotted for Kiyone and Sentaro to fall from the tree and land on top of each other. Oh, boy. They say they were sorry to Sonia on their mistakes that they just made, 'or blame it on one another again'.

"Ah! Sonia! We're so sorry! Please don't be mad at us!" the two said together.

"Mad at you two for what?" Sonia questions them. "I take it Jushiro wanted you two to keep an eye on me. (That figures...)"

Well, she was right for the two lover birds to start fighting with one another again to be pointless. Hey, Sentaro! Kiyone! Just get married already! Ha!

"Wait! You got it all wrong, Sonia. It was her fault!"

"No way, Sonia! It was his! All of it!"

Sentaro and Kiyone stare at each other to argue back and forth unstop to never end for Sonia to listen and sees this whole thing to be going on.

"As if!" angered Sentaro. "It's always you, dirty rat!"

"No, you!" same with Kiyone. "Always causing trouble, ugly troll!"

And they just kept on arguing non-stop repeatedly 'as if it'll never end for those two' and for Sonia to give them some space for a few seconds…Only to bump into someone else to join with her, it's Momo for the two see each other for the first time in person. To her surprise to see a human in person like Sonia was one of them. Half human though.

"Oh! I'm so sorry! I didn't watch where I was going."

"Oh, no. It was me! I'm so sorry!"

For both Sonia and Momo soon both looked at each other, for Sonia to see a lot more Soul Reapers for she was new and Momo to see a half breed one for the first time…

"Another Soul Reaper." Sonia looks at Momo. "You must be new…ah, what's your name?"

Momo senses by looking at Sonia for she was the person she was supposed to meet up with today.

"It's you…the half human and Soul Reaper who's the niece of Head Captain Yamamoto." she then looked happy to see someone who looked pretty and such to have a new idol to look up to. "Hi! So you're her. Sonia Belmont?" Momo shakes hands.

"Yes I am. Well, I'm a proud member once of a Belmont to be a Yamamoto instead. So you call my whatever you like. (I guess.)" she said.

"My name is Momo Hinamori, I'm a lieutenant from Squad Five. It's nice to meet you, Ms. Sonia." Momo felt embarrassed. "Ah! Sorry for the name there? Please…?"

That doesn't bother with Sonia at all.

"Not at all, just don't call me Lady…" then something hit Sonia to felt something out from Momo. "Wait, you're a lieutenant from Squad Five when your ex-captain was… (Oh, yeah! Sosuke betrayed Momo the most to almost loss her mind and got herself stabbed to be close to death! Ah, man…)" she stops. "Sorry."

Well, Momo was a bit upset to 'try' to put her past behind her now the best she could. Wasn't going to be the easy one for that wasn't the only thing bothering the poor girl…

"No, no, it's alright. You're new. Toshiro told me what has happened from your Uncle. Your old boyfriend, step-brother who's mind controlled, and yourself is cursed by Dracula. I'm so sorry!"

For Sonia to be covering her neck from the bite mark, it was too late to hide all of it now. I guess for the other lieutenants are learning about this from their captains. Damn, that sucks.

"(So much for covering this now…)" she didn't mind. "It's fine, Momo, really. And don't mind those two. They do this all the time when they fight with each other to be in love."

She meant by Kiyone and Sentaro were still fighting with each other for Momo to see for herself. Just then, Izuru appears to see Momo 'as he sees Sonia for him to meet up with her'. Now this was really hard to talk to one another again after the last time they've spoke…from the fight they had when seeing Sosuke's fake death to blame Gin to be a traitor after all, remember?

"Momo?"

"Izuru?"

Sonia sees another one to be showing up now.

"You two know each other?" she asked. "Another Soul Reaper lieutenant I see."

For them to be looking at each other to say sorry to be forgiven afterwards for both Izuru and Momo to laugh together to work things out, he then introduces himself to Sonia 'for he finds her to be very cute'.

"Yes…I'm lieutenant from Squad Three, Izuru Kira." he said to be in love. "(Wow, she's really cute.) You're Sonia Yamamoto, right? From lieutenants Momo, Kiyone, and Sentaro to be here…I guess we've come to the right place to see you today."

"Really now?"

"Izuru and I are good friends to become Soul Reapers back then with Renji and Rukia too." said Momo. "Those two must know you a lot back in the World of the Living. I hope they are doing well."

At least for Momo was feeling a bit better for Izuru and Hitsugaya to understand her mistakes in the end, as Sonia knows about Izuru once had a captain who was once from Squad Three Gin Ichimaru who used him to almost lose his mind. But thank God he really didn't, so this was a good thing.

"So you two know Rukia and Renji? Cool!" Sonia then asks Izuru if he was feeling fine for having his captain betray the entire Soul Society. "Hey, Izuru, will you also be okay? From the old captain name Gin...Uncle Moto told me all about it like Momo's situation as well. That must've sucks."

For Izuru to might be upset about it, but instead he holds Sonia's hand to be grateful from her kindness.

"I'll be fine. Wow…" he was touched by Sonia's words. "You're no doubt the second person to worry about me. Momo's the same thing as well as Rangiku for both her and Ichimaru know each other; thank you Sonia, for worrying about me." Izuru then let's go of Sonia to feel shy. "Sorry."

"It's fine…Really." said Sonia to be friendly towards Izuru.

Nice to meet someone else too like Momo for Izuru, as Kiyone and Sentaro stopped fighting for tiring themselves out to see two more Soul Reapers to be joining in, and two more to make an entrance next from Squad Eleven of two more lieutenants…both Ikkaku and Yumichika will meet with Sonia Yamamoto next to arrive as they were told from the letter; well that and from both Sentaro and Kiyone who were being annoying.

"Hey, Kiyone! Sentaro! Fighting with each other over nothing again…?" Ikkaku questions to then corrects them. "Keep it quiet!"

"No kidding." said Yumichika to fix his hair in a sexy way. "Those two always do this to each other to be in love or something."

This made both of Sentaro and Kiyone blush, to then be looking at each other, and then made up a story by saying they did not to hide their true feelings for one another.

"No we don't!"

Yeah, you two do…For Sonia to laugh as both Sentaro and Kiyone were with Sonia like Ukitake told them to be with her today 'as Momo, Izuru, Ikkaku, and Yumichika were doing the same' for this girl to meet with a few more Soul Reapers to accompanying her. So much was going on in this so call training to be making friends as Yumichika was the first to be looking at Sonia 'only because she was pretty looking at he was'.

"Hmmm…Look at this, Ikkaku, this must be the half Soul Reaper and human Captain Zaraki told us about. You're beautiful than I am, Ms.…?"

Sonia introduces herself to the two boys next.

"Sonia Yamamoto." she answers back. "Or Belmont. Either one of those last names are fine to call me by really, and you two are…?"

"Both lieutenants from Squad Eleven of both seats from third, that's me, and fifth. I'm Ikkaku Madarame and this here is…" Ikkaku sees his partner was acting silly from his looks again. "Is Yumichika Ayasegawa, please don't mind him. He's the fifth seat lieutenant. This guy always wants to think he's beautiful than anyone or anything else." he sees himself in the mirror too. "Like me…Just a hairless person."

For Momo, Izuru, Kiyone, and Sentaro to see the two to be acting silly for Sonia to find Ikkaku's words to be really pointless to not be ashamed on who or what you are, just be yourselves like she was. As she corrects the gentlemen in her words of strong anger 'but in a good way'.

"Huh…?" Sonia says it to the two men. "Okay! I get it! So what?! If that's what you two are, then fine! Be that way! Don't let others treat you like an annoyance or something!" from Yumichika. "Hey, Yumi! That's a nickname I'm giving you by the way…! You are fine the way you are for I was born like this, not to be the most popular girl for any other guy to try hitting on me, got it?!" and to Ikkaku next. "And you, Ikkaku! Who cares if someone calls you bald. It still makes you as you! Because no one can tell you on how you look to change the way you are without hair, in fact I hate my blonde long hair to be the way I am today to still be annoying! You see? So you two boys just calm down already! God!"

For Sonia to say it all and to the other four to be surprise from her attitude and good looks she has, so were both Ikkaku and Yumichika as well. Why was that you guys may ask…? Well…Ikkaku just stares at Sonia to see her pretty face up close to say this to her to act...strange suddenly.

"You know…Just hearing you say that sounds pretty hot, Sonia, and for you to say so much about me…" he then smiles to act sexy towards Sonia next. "You're so my type!"

For Sonia to be shock about all this for her reaction to not be a pretty one.

"WHAT?! (Seriously?!)"

"Huh?!" surprise the other four Soul Reapers.

Oh, boy…Seems like Ikkaku was falling for Sonia now, first time for him to as he was doing his lucky dance for a few seconds, and then tries to play it cool with her next.

"So Sonia, are you seeing someone? I can tell you're a strong fighter like me to get stronger as a true Soul Reaper. What do you say we train together and hang out from time to time…?" Sonia shoves Ikkaku in the face and keep him away from her for acting like a big pervert.

"Ew! No thank you!" she said to see Yumichika acting all handsome-like towards her next. "Ah, Yumichika, don't tell you…!"

Yep, he too had a crush on Sonia too. Both Ikkaku and Yumichika 'as well as Izuru to have a little crush on this girl'.

"My, my, Sonia, I must say besides myself to be very pretty, you are as well just like me." he said to kissing Sonia's hand. "If you want some training, I'll help you out to maybe…go on a date later to somewhere more beautiful like us?"

Sonia kicks Yumichika away from her next to be gross out by two guys to still like them as friends only. No kidding, for Izuru to at least respect her instead to like her hot looks.

"Oh, boy…" said Izuru. "So much for making my move."

"You two are sick to fight over one girl, and that's me!" she said.

Only for Yumichika and Ikkaku to both start fighting over one woman now to go back and forth to try winning her heart, but like that will ever happen at all 'because it won't'.

"Hey, Yumichika, back off, will ya?!" Ikkaku fights back. "I saw her first!"

"As if she would go out with the likes of you!" same with Yumichika. "Beat it, Ikkaku, I love her beauty!"

"She's mine, you hear?!"

"No, she's mine!"

For them to be fighting with one another for one girl, another girl bumps into Ikkaku and Yumichika to make them stop, by hoping on top of their heads with her foot, for she was their other head lieutenant of Squad Eleven, Yachiru Kusajishi herself 'in her silly ways' as she makes her entrance next.

"Stop your fighting, Shiny and Yun-Yun. Because neither one of you two will make a good couple for this girl." she said to move up to Sonia next.

"Ah! It's you!"

To both Ikkaku and Yumichika's surprise 'for the other four to see as well' as Yachiru was called for to help Sonia today, for her to see another member of their team.

"Oh, it's you from lieutenant from Squad Eleven. Yachiru Kusajishi." surprised Momo.

Yachiru looks around to see Sonia and the others to appear.

"Momo-Chan, welcome back. And you, new Soul Reaper half breed girl. So you're the one Kenny told me so much about. Hi!"

I guess from what Yachiru calls Momo by that nickname to Sonia surprise to be more than a little girl here…Already meeting with Kenpachi Zaraki had someone like her on his team.

"Ah, hi…? (A little girl is the head lieutenant member of Squad Eleven itself with a guy name Kenpachi guy as her captain?! Oh, boy…!)" she tries to be nice to shake hands with Yachiru. "Hi, Yachiru, I see Yumichika and Ikkaku both work for you. I'm Sonia Yamamoto who's a half human and Soul Reaper with some Belmont pride, and the Head Captain of Squad One's only niece in the family. So either one of those two last names you can call me by if you want to…"

"Hmm…You'll be called Sonny." she shakes hands to sit on Sonia's shoulders to be light as a feather. "That'll be your new nickname. And that's how I'll remember you by, trust me, Sonny."

"Sonny?!" Sonia was shocked to be called by that nickname to go along with it. "You mean me?"

Well, for both Ikkaku and Yumichika tells Sonia about it themselves to know of Yachiru's odd behavior to live with it 'and still find her to be annoying to them'.

"Just go with it, Sonia, trust us. Seeing we all go by different nicknames this little brat's doing."

"No kidding. It's not pretty, but it's how our squad is the strong ones in our group, Sonia, for she can be…very strange and cute up close."

I guess Sonia goes along with it for Yachiru to smile to her new best friend.

"Yeah! I knew you would love that nickname of yours, Sonny." she said. "I hope we can become friends for all of us to help us you out today by having some fun. Along with Shiny, Yun-Yun, Izurun, Momo-Chan, Kiyo, and Sen." Yachiru then see two more Soul Reapers coming to be the last ones. "Oh, goodie! Here comes the last two to play with us, Hisa-Hisa and Big Busts."

I think she meant was from two more lieutenants, one from Squad Nine Shuhei Hisagi and Squad Ten Rangiku Matsumoto. So this makes all nine of the Soul Reapers to be helping Sonia to train to do something fun while making some friends, you know? What a nice group for Yamamoto to gather here…

"Who?" Sonia was lost.

Both Sentaro and Kiyone each say who the last two were for Sonia to be introduce for Rangiku was her cheerful self, and Hisagi was acting cool and all.

"It's the lieutenant from Squad Nine, Shuhei Hisagi."

"And the other one is lieutenant from Squad Ten, Rangiku Matsumoto."

For Sonia to see from Rangiku having big boobs to her surprise to be very real.

"Damn! Those boobs are real?!" she asked. "They're huge-!" Sonia covers her mouth in time. "Sorry…"

Seems like Rangiku cared less about her boobs and more about Sonia to meet with in person.

"You mean my ginormous boobs? Ah, I was just born with them. No worries. So, you're Sonia Yamamoto, right? Or is it Belmont to be the Head Captain's niece of a half breed human and Soul Reaper?"

The two shake hands and then for Hisagi introduces himself to Sonia next to learn about his ex-captain Kaname who betrayed him too. Oh, boy…

"Either one of the last names are fine, Rangiku, it's nice to meet you. And to you too, Hisagi." Sonia knows about his captain. "(Him as well, huh?) Sorry to hear about your captain betraying you. His name is Kaname Tousen was it? Three captains hurting you three and everyone else from the Soul Society, that really sucks."

Well, for Izuru to be himself thanks to them and for Hisagi to stay strong, in other words there were not worried at all for Rangiku stays strong to hope that Gin was doing fine.

"No worries. We all get hurt at first, and then we move on." he said to place his hand on Sonia to be smiling. "For all of us, we have each other to keeping on going."

That was easy enough for Hisagi to be fine with it all, same with Izuru, Rangiku were all trying to, same thing with Ikkaku, Yumichika, Yachiru, Kiyone, and Sentaro were all trying to stay strong. For Sonia to see the brave faces on all of them for other Soul Reapers like Rukia, Renji, Yoruichi, Urahara, and Tessai are the same by staying strong 'and the same for Ichigo as a Substitute Soul Reaper'; for this girl to be happy to see new faces to help her out only for Momo to look upset on others to still like her besides Izuru and Hitsugaya understood from her mistakes so far, Sonia on the other hand gets it to have Momo trust in her already, but what of the other nine Soul Reapers? Surprise to see Momo feeling better now, they were all left speechless 'but Izuru to be fine and Yachiru to be confused'.

"Momo? You're healed!" said Kiyone, Sentaro, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Hisagi, and Rangiku.

"Hi, everyone..."

For them to say those words only and to leave the others in silence after what she 'almost did' and losing Sosuke's trust, for Yachiru says this part next.

"Huh? Hey, are you guys are upset for Momo-Chan thought her ex-captain Aizy was killed, but he wasn't to fool us all to blame Gin-Gin Boy to killing him, but Izurun to stop her for Toshi to keep an eye to find out the two other captains and Kenny were traitors to feel very sad and almost died?" she asked. "Is that why everyone's all quiet?"

For Momo was about to leave for Izuru to say something to tell the others on the things to support his friend.

"Wait! Everyone, I can explain the rest-!"

But he was stopped by Sonia to say something to cheer Momo up instead to correct them all but Izuru and Yachiru, by stepping in instead.

"Momo, wait! You can stay! If Izuru has forgiven you as you do with him and Toshiro-Kid, then I do as well." she said to be defending Momo to say this to Yachiru next. "Not you, Yachiru, you're fine." Sonia continues telling the other six Soul Reapers. "Look you guys, Momo didn't mean to do those things for she didn't kill anyone, but her ex-captain almost did to this poor girl. And now with Momo feeling better, some of you gave her a hard time. Shame on all of you if so! At least my Uncle felt sorry for this girl to tell me all about it, so I want you all to have a good look at Momo to think things through before judging a book by their covers, like hers. Now say you are all sorry." Sonia says it loud and clear to the six only. "Do it!"

Well, it works to Izuru surprise on how amazing and head strong to also be so kind hearted that Sonia really was, and Yachiru to laugh at those who were almost mean to Momo…For her to be amazed to this new girl to be so happy to see this was really happening – and of course for Rangiku has already forgiven her, Hisagi understands, as for Ikkaku, Yumichika, Kiyone, and Sentaro to say the rest in seconds, everything was good now to not worry Momo Hinamori no more, so all was well again.

"Amazing…" said Izuru. "Thanks, Sonia, you really helped out Momo there."

"You tell them, Sonny!" same with Yachiru. "I already like this new girl."

For the six to feel 'almost bad there' for hurting Momo's feelings, for Sonia was the same with the other like Hitsugaya, Izuru, and Yachiru get it too. For Momo was now better and is fond to her new idol to replace the mean Sosuke now. Cool!

"Oh, Ms. Sonia…! Thank you!" she felt shy. "Ah, sorry. Can I call you Ms. Sonia for now on?"

Seems Sonia didn't mind at all to make another new friend.

"For you, Momo, you may. (This girl has every right to call me by 'Ms. Sonia'. How friendly.)" said Sonia.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Sonia, I know we'll be getting along just fine both you and I!"

For the two to be laughing with joy and such to get along now for Momo to be her cheer self again, as everyone were gathered together to see Sonia to help her have some time and to make friends, what will they do next? I wonder…

"Well, we've learned a lesson to be here for a reason to aid Sonia here…what should we do now?" Rangiku asks. "Huh? Anyone?"

For Yumichika had something for the other three to pull out with him.

"I think we still have these we brought back from the World of the Living. See?"

With the nine trying to think of something – it would seem like Izuru, Hisagi, Yumichika, and Rangiku had something to pull out of their bags to dump all over the grassy ground to see lots of game like gun items for others to play back in the World of the Living. For Sonia to see those things to play them once with Ichigo and the others a while back.

"Where did you get those things?!" Sonia asked to look at all the items. "I've play these with Richard and Maria a while back. Not to mention Ichigo had to show both Rukia and Renji how to play at some point… (For the two of us to explained to them, it was a day I'll never forget.)"

It was fun still, for the for from Izuru, Hisagi, Rangiku, and Yumichika explain how when, where in the World of the Living, and when it happened.

"Got the poker cards at a gas station store that Ganju Shiba told me about."

"Same with this box full of chalk to draw on hard solid grounds on for Orihime to give to me."

"And this box with something called 'Twister' for Chad to give to me as a gift."

"Not to mention this flying strange type of disk thing to throw to one another."

Strange…for Yachiru, Ikkaku, Momo, Kiyone, and Sentaro to look at the rest along with Sonia too 'and the rest for Renji to bring back a ball to throw around and Rukia with some toy guns that shoots out water', for they were all amazed on what type of things they were to try something else. And to ask Sonia on what they should do next to have some fun today. Not much of training, but in a good way for the others to help her out to do so later afterwards to try having fun and to make some friends first. Now Sonia sees what her uncle was trying to do for his niece.

"Wow…! This looks like fun to play these things from a different world. Don't you think, Sonny? Let's jump rope."

"Forget that! Hey, Sonia, we can have a good brawling of a double team battle against others. Team up with me."

"I never play this poker card thing before. Let's try this one, Ms. Sonia."

"No way! I say we throw the ball to each other to keep it up without dropping it."

"As if, loser! I want to draw something of out true feelings in big words."

Soon for all nine to be fighting at one another for the other four to do the same thing to be arguing for Momo to stop to see on what Sonia had to say about it.

"Ah, Ms. Sonia, we should we do?" she asked. "I thought maybe you can decide since you've played with games like these, correct?"

I guess she had to stop the others from fighting to tell them settle down for Momo to know what was coming to cover her ears in time.

"QUIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!" she gets their attentions now to tell them what to do. "Look, I think we should try out these things one at a time if you hear me out first. We'll do some of these fun things together. (Uncle Moto, I see what you want me to do now. To make friends here like these guys, and a lot more for Momo since she was hurt by her own captain. Well, not anymore. I'll make sure everyone treats her well like they did before and I'll be there for my new friend.)"

Seems like the others and Momo too will hear them out.

"You do?" Momo asked.

"She does?" Sentaro and Kiyone question herself.

"Then please tell us!" Yumichika was smiling.

For the nine Soul Reapers hear Sonia out for her to tell them on how to play with the games as it'll be fun for them all.

"Well, I'll show you and we'll know what to play with first. One at a time. (I think I can do this!)" she said. "Listen up, everyone…"

And all ten of them do so all day long in the forest for Sonia to make new friends to have fun with. She was happy too 'a lot more besides helping out Ichigo and the other to grow up as a Belmont'…

For Yachiru and Momo played jump rope first as Rangiku to jump up and down 'while trying to hold her chest from not popping out of her robe' as she and Sonia do it together to be good, and then stop to give their all to be laughing afterwards; soon Sonia teaches Kiyone and Sentaro how to draw other things with chalks to be fun and write nice things all over in different colors, and then Ikkaku and Yumichika to throw the disk to Sonia to go back and forth to get it as a high and far as each of them could to be fun to them for they were fast. Yachiru was winning a lot to playing hide-in-go-seek until Momo gets to home base to win against her for the first time ever, to then be playing tag to be it one at a time, as well as Hisagi and Izuru were learning how to play poker cards carefully to each win one end at a time. This was fun! The same thing with playing with water guns to shoot at one another in the lake to be laughing, to then be catching the ball to one another for no one to drop it, or they would be out to have the last person standing is the winner; and last to be a fun game of Twister to have some fun to keep themselves from getting hurt to have four players at a time. Ouch…

What a fun day for Momo was happy to have everyone to hang out with 'and a new friend who was Sonia now'. As Hitsugaya sees his friend/girlfriend looking happy along with his lieutenant Rangiku 'was doing well with the others', same with Hisagi, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Yachiru, Kiyone, and Sentaro were having a good time. For him to be watching from afar, Ukitake was too on his other two lieutenants and Sonia to be really be liking her more than just a friends on his team. For Hitsugaya to be seeing Ukitake to wave to his fellow captain.

"Oh! Hello, Toshiro."

"Huh? Captain Ukitake?!" he was sort of shock to see him. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Those two get along as friends and partners for two captains is a bit sweet and silly, because of their first names are sort of the same to sounding the same – Jushiro and Toshiro, you know?

"I could ask you the same thing, but seeing your lieutenant is there, I guess I was right."said Ukitake. "And for Sonia to be getting along with Lieutenant Hinamori to help the others see she's still a good person…she's cute when she acts brave to cheer people up again. I just love that about Sonia!"

For Ukitake to look happy as Hitsugaya could already tell just by looking at him, and a lot more to it.

"Huh? Well, for Momo to be herself again for the others to get it and for Rangiku, that's all that matters. I'm glad to have her back." said Hitsugaya. "And yes. This Sonia person's really good to become a Soul Reaper real soon, I can see why she wanted to be on your squad in the first place…" he soon figures something else out to be shock about it. "Wait…Captain Ukitake, the look on your face…Ah! Are you falling in love with a half breed?! (I can't say I never seen him with a woman before to fall for him, but he's really falling for her!)"

It would seem like it, no wonder why Hitsugaya's the smart one in the Soul Society and Captain of Squad Ten.

"Oh, so you've notice? I guess so…" he was then silly to give Hitsugaya a pat on the head. "I'm glad you were the first one to notice about me liking Sonia, Toshiro, how thoughtful of you."

"So, it is true! (I guess this girl's more than a human with a gift to reawaken her Soul Reaper powers, determined. I guess it's natural in anyone who never gives up on anything. And the niece to the Head Captain himself. Incredible…)"

Ukitake just laughs to continue watching on the others for a while as well as Hitsugaya to do the same to try hiding his feelings to himself only, he does care to learn more about Sonia Yamamoto real soon.

"Since you're here, let's watch the rest until night fall, alright?" Ukitake asks Hitsugaya. "This is sort of fun to be hanging out a lot, isn't it?"

"This is only for business here…Nothing more…" he said back to be shy about it.

Ha! Nice one. And so, the day turns in to night for them to have a good time for Ikkaku, Yumichika, and Izuru to hopefully spend more time with Sonia again the next time and help her train. Same with Hisagi 'who likes her fighting spirit', Yachiru wanted to have more fun with Sonia again soon as she tells her captain Kenpachi all about it 'who seems to like her more than someone to fight with her'; Rangiku was looking forward to hang out with Sonia again after today, same with Momo who'll do her best to help her out more, and for both Kiyone and Sentaro walked Sonia back to the Squad Thirteen headquarters afterwards. As it was night time now for Sonia's uncle Yamamoto pays her a visit to show her something she can do to her surprise on a device from which Mayuri has made for him 'and to everyone else'.

"Hi, Uncle Moto." she said. "I thought I was going to train some more, but I get it now. I still need time to watch out for my curse and all…I did make a lot of friends today."

"Good to know, Sonia Dear." Yamamoto pats his niece on the head to be happy. "I knew you would like cheering lieutenant Hinamori is a big step to her recovery. Good…Good. Anyways, I have something for you to talk to the human substitute Soul Reaper Ichigo with this device. Bring it in, Lieutenant Sasakibe!"

Sonia sees it being huge to have enough room to talk from the big screen from the World of the Living and to the Soul Society, for Chōjirō Sasakibe brings it in for his captain.

"Here it is, Head Captain Yamamoto Sir! It's all set to go!"

With it all set up and turns on the screen, this was Sonia's chance to talk to Ichigo for the screen to adjust itself in seconds.

"It's huge!" said Sonia. "This TV will allow me to see and talk to Ichigo from a different world? So cool!"

"It's not just a TV, it's a special device commutator to connect any Soul Reapers to report back from our world to the World of the Living. Thanks to our former captains of Squad Twelve and Squad Two to set it up back at some type of shop, allowing to hear back from lieutenants Abarai and Kuchiki to give us the details. From which I mean by the Dracula's wars. Now you know where we got everything we needed to know about it."

Well, it does make sense how everyone else was prepare for it all before Sonia showed up.

"I guess that would make perfect sense there…" she said. "So I can talk to Ichigo and the others now?"

"Just Ichigo for tonight, the rest you can once a day until their arrival." Yamamoto moves aside to give his niece some private time. "It's ready, Sonia Dear, go ahead."

As the screen was turned on for it shows Ichigo back at his world and Sonia to see him again, the two were shock to be seeing each other again in person. Well…not in person yet, but they were happy to know they were both alive and well so far with the battle to still be going on. Tell me about it.

"Ah! Ichigo!"

"Sonia…?" Ichigo was shock as well. "Wow…I knew you were alive. Look at you, a real half breed Soul Reaper you're becoming, huh? Just like me."

How will this go? A nice talk from him to see how Ichigo and his other teammates have been doing during the time when Sonia and the other nine Soul Reapers were having fun with her all day. I wonder what's been happening back in the World of the Living?

"It's good to see you again too, Ichigo." she said back. "How have you been lately?"

Not bad so far, huh? A little fun to be going around, and more on this one to lighten things up. And yes, I wanted Momo to aid everyone else in this war to try getting better too in my story. For Ichigo's version along with Kon, Rukia, Renji, Chad, Orihime, and Hayame are doing for they'll each hear their stories once we get to the them in the next chapter/episode.
