Thoughts

Chapter 6, Monday: Scouting out

"Argh, my ears are breaking!" I complained. It was Hitsugaya's turn to help me wake up on time, and he just had to have such a 'brilliant' idea.

"What? You won't wake up with an alarm clock. You complained when Ichigo woke you up. So that was the best idea." Hitsugaya spoke back.

"Putting a siren right next to my ear and turning it up to maximum volume isn't what I call the best idea!" I complained, very annoyed. Urgh, can't I just wake up normally?! Without all this drama!

"Come on now. At least you have an excuse for not listening to classes." Ichigo remarked with his hands behind his head.

"Unlike you, some people want to listen to teachers to get good grades." Hitsugaya retorted. Soon we came up to the school gate.

"Miss Haruno." I turned around to see Urahara sensei. "May I have a word with you please."

Classroom

"What did Urahara sensei want to talk about with you?" Rangiku asked.

"Oh he just told me that I have to join a club soon." I said.

"Oh yeah, everyone here has to be in a club." Rukia remembered.

"So you guys are in clubs too?" I asked

"Yup, I'm in the fashion club. Rukia's in art club. Hey how about after school, we go check out the clubs. Maybe we'll be able to find one for you." Rangiku suggested and both of us agreed.

Art Room

"So this is my club." Rukia introduced. I could see all the people painting, drawing, even sculpturing. "So what do you think?"

"I dunno. I'm not quite talented in art. Maybe we should find another group." I said.

"Next stop, the Fashion club." Rangiku said and I was led to the sewing room. I saw many girls creating many beautiful clothes. All so focused in their work. "What do you think?"

"Maybe not, I'm not that creative." I said.

"How about we walk around. All the clubs should be out." Rukia suggested. Soon we walked around the field. Later, a soccer ball rolled to my feet.

"Hey Kurara!" I looked up and saw Ichigo running towards us. "What are you doing here?"

"We're helping Kurara find herself a club." Rangiku replied.

"Oh a club! Hey wanna see what my club does, maybe you can join us." Ichigo said before running back to join his team. Soon they demonstrated some moves and kicks and I had to say, they were really good.

"Well, I think you should join something else. One, it's too sporty and takes up a lot of time. Two, if being with Ichigo is why you want to join then forget it. Cause he goes and joins in any sports group anytime he wants. Three and most important point of all, they're all GUYS!" Rukia said sternly. I have to agree with her on that. We later went to the hall and saw the kendo team practicing inside. I soon saw Hitsugaya having a showdown. His moves were so graceful, yet powerful. He can dodge and attack so quickly too. After his match, he saw us and came towards us.

"What are you three doing here? Shouldn't you be with your own clubs?" he asked.

"Well, we're helping Kurara find her own club." Rukia explained.

"Well then good luck. Not many clubs would accept newcomers." Hitsugaya said. He doesn't have to say it like that! Meanie!

"How about your club Hitsugaya? Can she join?" Rangiku asked.

"You have any experience hold a sword?" he asked. I shook my head. "Then forget about it." Before long, he went back to the team.

"Sheesh! He doesn't have to say like that! Come on, the day's still young. We can still find a club for you." Rangiku said. However after many rounds of club searching, none were good for me.

"That's the 100th club we've seen. How is it that our school can have so many clubs?!" Rukia exclaimed. I felt bad bringing them around, just to help me find a club.

"You know, you guys can go back to your own clubs." I told them.

"You sure you'll be ok by yourself?" Rukia asked. I nodded. "Ok then, good luck." And they left for their clubs. I continued to walk down the hallway, trying my best to find a club for me. Then, a delicious smell wafted around me. I followed the scent and found myself in the Home Economics room. I peeped in and saw a five people gathered around a pot of stew. One of them turned around and saw me.

"Uhm excuse me? Is there something I can help you with?" she asked.

"Oh uhm, actually I was just looking around when that stew really attracted me. It's beef stew right?" I asked.

"Why yes. You really have a good sense of smell don't you?" she said.

"Well, I've been cooking with my mum for some time. So it's quite normal for me."

"We could use a girl like you in our club. Would you like to join us, to the Home Eco club?" she asked. I was so excited! I found myself a club! About time too! I nodded vigorously. "That's great! Well I'm Fujioka Kasandora, leader of this club." The girl said. She had long wavy brown hair and brown eyes.

"I'm Yamada Hanataro. A pleasure to meet you." A shy boy said. He had blue eyes and chin-length black hair, with bangs framing the side of his face.

"My name is Tsubokura Rin. Nice to meet you." A boy said happily. He had shoulder length brown hair, part of which is arranged into a small topknot at the front of his head, which is secured by a red tie.

"I'm Honda Ayame. Hi ya!" a cheeky girl said. She had blue eyes and her pink hair was tied up into two ponytails.

"I'm Takahashi Rika. Pleasure." A tall girl said. She had long purple hair, tied into a long braid and had black eyes.

"I'm Haruno Kurara. It's nice to meet you all." I gleamed.

"Haruno…You're the new transfer student aren't you?" Honda asked.

"Yeah, I came to find a club to join in."

"Well look no more, for your part of the Home Eco club. Come let us partake in this stew as our way of welcoming you in!" Fujioka gestured everyone to take a seat and passed down bowls of the stew.

"So what exactly do you do?"

"Well, our main objective is to test out new recipes and share them with the campus. We also have a 'bento making' project which is where students can make in orders of what bento they would like and we make them." Tsubokura explained. Oh that's sounds like fun!

"Yeah, one time we had to make bento boxes for the whole soccer team after their match, and boy were they hungry!" Honda said cheerfully. Bento boxes huh? I think I'm gonna have a great time here. Soon I found myself enjoying the company of my new club. Now I have a new set of friends!
