Apologies for such a short chapter. This will probably be the shortest chapter as it only contains them finding the note.
The drill had went relatively successful resulting in the class returning to the academy. Momo and Renji were cruising along with them when they caught the headmaster out of the corner of their eye. He signaled them to come see him, which they willingly followed.
"What's up?" Renji asked.
"I just wanted to let you know that I have decided to after the captian's visit tomorrow." The headmaster declared. "But until then I need you two to do some investigating."
"Why?" Momo gasped.
"To avoid adding chaos, I just think it'll be better that way. The Soul Society may have an idea about who took Izuru, but it wouldn't hurt to do some research, and I'll pass it along whatever you find to them, privately, at the end of their visit."
"Understood." Renji answered. "We'll check his house first. Let's go Momo."
Momo gave him a nod in aggrement as they ditched school with permission, for once.
They were able to react Izuru's house in roughly a half an hour's time. They had quickly stopped by his parents' grave site, but saw nothing, and proceeded their intended site. Luckily for Momo, Renji was a little more familiar with the area since he had ventured there once or twice before.
He guided her to the house without much problem. Once reaching it, they found that almost everything seemed untouched. The only exception being a hole on the door's glass frame. Renji and Momo both entered the house to inspect the damage. The broken glass was the only real mess, but they decided not to touch it. Momo was the first to notice the rock that broke the glass, picking up the note that was attached to it. She briefly studied it before notifying her friend.
"Renji, look at this." Momo told.
"What is it?" Renji asked walking towards her.
"It's a note."
She handed it over to Renji so he could read it.
Dear Kiras,
I have your son Izuru. He is alive for now, but not for long. If you'd like to see your son again, you will pay us one million yen in three days time.
Sincerely,
Daisuke of the Black Shadow
Now I already have the fourth chapter started, so it should be up soon.
