"Why do you always have to look so angry?" Masami questioned as he ran his fingers through his purple hair. His hair was apparently a sign of his 'punk rock' phase he was going through. His hair was also combed over to one side, but the hair itself didn't look combed at all. Masami was a new student, and he joined about three days ago.

Nozomi gave him a fake sarcastic smile, "Because I am angry." Nozomi had long chocolate colored hair that swayed with the wind perfectly. She had emerald colored orbs of eyes that got her a great deal of flattering. Her body itself was something of a joke to her; she disliked how it looked so she wore long skirts and big coats, but many people found her petite figure to be cute. Her dad said she got the looks from her mom because he wasn't very attractive himself.

One of the other jocks chimed in, "Why would you be angry?"

She rubbed her jade green eyes dully, "Because."

As the three of them walked into class she sat down in the front row, next to her secret admirer Uryu Ishida. He looked over and her and clumsily pushed up his glasses, "Good morning Takara."

"Tch," she leaned her face on the palm of her hand, stretching her face softly.

The teacher strolled in hurriedly, pushing a new eccentric blonde kid in with her.

"Listen up everyone! We have a new classmate," She pushed the new kid forward, " his name is Shinji Harako."

The new kid sat down behind Nozomi, next to Ichigo. He addressed Ichigo first about some sort of Vizen then moved on to talking to Nozomi, "So I hear you're the girl to get around here."

She ignored him.

"It's not polite to ignore someone, you know?" Shinji chuckled at his own comment.

"It's not polite to interrupt me and Uryu's conversation, you know?" She spat back arrogantly.

Shinji's eyebrows furrowed together, "It wasn't really a conversation…"

Uryu seemed to have troubles with both Shinji and Masami already, but she couldn't figure out why. However, Uryu did ask Nozomi a question, "Isn't your 15th birthday this week?"

"Tomorrow, actually."

"Happy early birthday," Uryu replied while pushing his glasses up his face one again.

She nodded politely, "Thanks. I'm celebrating with my Dad's best friend. His name's Urahara I think, and he has the weirdest kids."

"Urahara?" Uryu looked shocked at her mentioning his name.

She raised an eyebrow curiously, "You know him?"

"Nope! Not at all!" Uryu was talking quickly and kind of sweating nervously like he had a secret just as she mentioned Urahara.

"I know you're lying—" Nozomi was cut off.

Uryu leaned back in his seat trying to look casual, "Pffft, me lying? No…"

"You didn't let me finish. I know you're lying, but I don't care," she crossed her arms, now paying attention to the teacher.

For the rest of the day Shinji kept bugging her and she was about to lose it. When the bell finally rang she hurried out of clad. And as she was going home she overheard Shinji and Masami fighting over something. She backed up against a wall to listen to what they were fighting about. Masami was pushing Shinji and saying, "Back off we've already claimed her."

"You know what she is, how are you planning to turn her into the freak of nature you are? Just leave her with us it's less trouble."

Masami looked around and he noticed Nozomi so he turned to a whisper so she couldn't hear them, "Master has plan, and she will become the ultimate of all of us."

Shinji spat on the ground near Masami's feet, "Either way, if she goes to Urahara it's over for both of us. Then the Soul Society will have her, and she will be nothing but a test subject."

"She will be the ultimate shinigami if she learns how to harness both of her powers, and she will be ours," and with that Masami trudged away leaving Shinji to sigh exasperatedly.

Shinji turned away and murmured tiredly, "She sure is something…"
