Hoshi was relived to see both Tatsuki and Ichigo headed in the gate. She noticed the looks on their faces that something was wrong.
|
Ichigo saw Hoshi, Chad and Toushiro waiting for them at the gates. He grinned lightly when he saw that Hoshi's tenseness evaporated once they entered the gates. "Hey everyone."
|
" Hey guys. " Hoshi said with a small smile. " Is everything alright? " She asked them .
|
"Yeah, everything's alright." He said quickly as he blocked off connections with his teasing Zanpakuto.
|
Hoshi wouldn't ask about what had happened . She hadn''t even told Ichigo what was bothering her. The bell rang and she headed to class with the others. She handed in her homework and started to take notes when the lecture started.
|
Ichigo heard the bell and walked inside as well, Tatsuki following right after him.
Tatsuki quickly headed into the school building after Ichigo and the others. After the events of this morning, she didn't want to be by herself for very long, just in case that guy came back to try and finish the job. If it was one thing she didn't want to burn, it was her school uniform. |
The bell rang and Hoshi grabbed her lunch . She waited outside the classroom with her guard up. She knew that if the hollows were sent to kill her this morning, that someone might come to finish the job. She jumped when she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around to see who it was. She was relived it was only Tatsuki.
|
"You okay?" Tatsuki asked after she placed her hand on Hoshi's shoulder, her lunch bag in the other hand. She knew that it was stupid seeing as to how jumpy her friend was. Then again, after today's events earlier, she would be just as jumpy if she was waiting.
|
" I'll be alright Tatsu. I'm just really tense that's all." Hoshi said. She would tell Tatsuki later about what happened this morning . She knew that something was about to happen soon , but didn't know what it was .
|
"alright," she replied. She had a feeling that Hoshi was hiding something, but what, she didn't know.
|
" Tatsu were you attacked this morning? I was woken up by Indigo-san that there were hollows nearby. It turned out they were in front of my house. If it wasn't for Hitsugaya-taichou arriving when he did , I don't know what would have happened to me . I should have said something earlier." Hoshi said feeling guilty.
|
"Something similar happened to me. Ryu-kun woke me up and if it weren't for that, I'd be an icy pincushion. Well Ryu-kun and Straw-chan." Tatsuki replied truthfully.
|
Hoshi was glad that Ichigo was there to help Tatsuki this morning." It isn't good that we're both being targeted like this. What do you think we should do to make sure something like this doesn't happen again?" Hoshi asked.
|
"I want to say we take the fight to them, but until we find them we can't do that. I was thinking about asking Ichigo if I could stay at his house, just in case something like this happens again. No one would be stupid to attack a Vaizard and ex-captain under the same house," Tatsuki said.
|
" That sounds like a good idea. I just hope it doesn't happen again." Hoshi knew angry Tetsu was about how close the hollows were . " We better head up before lunch is over." She said .
|
"Good point. Perhaps Ichigo hasn't set out a search party for us yet," she said as she followed Hoshi to the roof.
|
" He probably thinks we're talking about girl stuff. " Hoshi said with a small giggle. Hoshi sat down once she made it to the roof and took her sandwich out. She wasn't very hungry, but knew she needed to eat.
|
Tatsuki chuckled lightly. "He probably would think that." She sat down next to Hoshi before realizing that she didn't have time to create a lunch after the attack this morning.
|
" Would you like the other half of my sandwich Tatsu?" Hoshi asked after she noticed Tatsuki didn't have a lunch.
|
"Are you sure? I don't mind waiting until after school to get something to eat," she said.
Ichigo and Toushiro were talking about the two different attacks on the girls' lives. He also suggested that they talk to Urahara about the events. Perhaps with all three minds, they could come up with something that would keep the girls safe. |
" I'm sure. " Hoshi said with a smile willing to help a friend.
|
"As long as you're sure," Tatsuki said before taking the half of sandwich that Hoshi offered her. |
Hoshi ate her half of the sandwich and talked with her friends . The bell rang later and she headed back to the classroom. She had her guard up and took more notes .Hoshi did her homework in study hall ,trying to focus as best she could. and wasn't looking forward to being alone in the house for a couple of hours. She was afraid that who ever tried to kill her , would be back. The day ended and she waited inside the building for the others.
|
Tatsuki ate the half of the sandwich that Hoshi gave her and started talking with Chad and the others before she heard the bell ringing, signifying that lunch was over. Heading back to the classroom, she was on guard and noticed that Hoshi was as well. She knew that she had to think of something, especially since Hoshi would be home alone for a few hours.
Once back inside, Tatsuki tried to focus on the rest of her day and took some notes and also finished her homework during their study hall period. Once they exited the school, Tatsuki pulled Toushiro to the side and explained her worries. Seeing him nod, he asked if it was alright with Hoshi if he stayed around her house until her father got home. |
" It would be alright Captain. Thank you . " Hoshi said when he asked her. She was glad she wouldn't be by herself .
