Hoshi finished her breakfast and also washed her bowl out. " We have until 1 in the afternoon and the others will be there too. He also says he would have left you a message , but he decided to go the conventional route this time. What does that mean? What happened the last time Urahara-sensei left a message for you?" Hoshi whispered and was curious about that.

"Last time he threw a balloon filled with blood through my window spelling out the message of what he wanted me to do and where to meet. Naturally, I freaked out at his little 'joke'" Ichigo whispered back, not liking to remember that incident.

"Oh...you two are up. Morning Ichi-nii, Hoshi-chan," Yuru said as she descended down the stairs, surprised at both of them already awake. Usually she was the first one up whenever they didn't have school.

" Morning Yuzu-chan. I hope you slept well last night." Hoshi said with a smile. She put her bowl away after she had cleaned it .Hoshi hoped today would go well. She would fight tooth and nail to prevent herself from being captured by Aizen and his army . She had to keep the ones she cared about safe too. Hoshi didn't want to see any one hurt because of her. She hoped that everyone would be safe today.

" I slept well . Thank you. Yuzu do you know of any craft stores in town? Ive been looking for one since I moved back . " It was the truth . The one she use to shop at had closed.Hoshi felt at times the town had changed so much since she was little. Hoshi hoped to talk to Ichigo about that dream she had. They did have a few hours before being at Urahara's . She was nervous , but didn't have a bad feeling about it like she did before .

"You're quite welcome. If I remember correctly, there is one next to my school. Why?" She asked, curious.

Ichigo was curious as to why she wanted to go to a crafts store, but kept his mouth shut, he'd find out sooner or later.

" I'm looking for knitting needles. I have some at home but they are the wrong size . I want to make my dad a scarf for his birthday. " Hoshi said. It was the truth. Hoshi had been taught by her grandma a few years ago how to knit." I hope thats alright Ichigo."

" Sounds good to me. As long as it's alright with Ichigo.Could you come with us? " Hoshi asked and hoped he would come with them. She could wait with what she had to say until later. Hoshi didn't want anything bad to happen if it was just her with Yuzu.Hoshi had a feeling she would see someone from school there but couldn't figure out who it was. The feeling was concealed but she sort of recognized it.

Hoshi nodded in agreement . She wondered what they would learn later today.

Hoshi followed beside Yuzu as the three made their way toward the craft store.

Hoshi had found the size needles that she needed for the pattern. She had a hard time reaching them though. Being only 5 ft tall had it's disadvantages . She stood on her toes and was able to reach them. She hoped no one saw her do that though. She had been teased because of her height ever since middle school. Hoshi made her way to pay for them. Hoping Ichigo was close by.

Hoshi paid for the needles and waited up front. She saw Ichigo coming toward her. She waved and saw Yuzu checking out also.Things felt pretty normal out for now. That she was grateful for.

Hoshi waited with Ichigo until Yuzu was finished . Hoshi had a lot on her mind today. And hoped that the bad feeling she was getting would go away.

"You okay? It looks like you feel down or something," Ichigo said as they waited for Yuzu.

Yuzu paid for her yarn and needles before making her way outside to join her brother and Hoshi.

" I'll tell you later. I promise." Hoshi said as she saw Yuzu head toward them. She hoped that she did have the chance to tell him about the dream.

" Sounds good to me. You pick this time Ichigo." Hoshi said with a smile.

"Alright," he said, leading the two to a small deli near their house, letting Yuzu and Hoshi in first.

"What a nice gentleman," one of the older ladies there enjoying her lunch murmured lightly as she watched the scene unfold.
