" That I do." Kisuke said with a grin.

'Is that Katia-chan?' Soji thought as he saw three females walking towards what he assumed to be school. Two of them were teasing the third one, by the looks of it.

Katia looked behind them and saw someone who looked like Soji and wondered if it was him. " I sure hope it is."She thought and gave a wave.

Soji waved back, glad to see that it actually was Katia.

"Who's that Katia-chan?" Tatsuki asked.

" Soji Kimura. He's a shinigami I met during our time there." Katia said with a slight blush.

"Oh really...just a friend, hm?" Tatsuki asked with a light smirk.

" Just a friend." Katia said though she knew only time would tell.

"If you say so Katia-chan," she said with a light smirk as the boy came over to them.

" Hello Katia San, Hoshi San. Surprised to see me?" Soji asked with a grin. He wasn't sure if he liked the Gigai or not and hoped he would get use to it.

"We are, right Katia?" Hoshi asked with a small grin, seeing her cousin's cheeks start to become red.

" We are. It's wonderful to see you again Soji-San. " Katia said with a smile.

"Likewise Katia-san, Hoshi-san," Soji said with a grin.

" Let us know what you will need help with. " Hoshi said as they approached the school.

"I will, thank you," Soji said as he saw the distinctive orange hair of Ichigo's.

" Morning Ichigo." Hoshi said with a smile.

"Morning Ichi-kun," Tatsuki said with a light grin.

" Morning you three. " Ichigo said and wondered who the fourth person was.

"Ichigo-kun, this is Soji-kun. He helped us during the battle with Gin," Katia said, having a feeling that Soji already knew who Ichigo was.

" It is nice to finally meet you in person. " Soji said and almost bowed. He knew that he could be a bit too formal at times but that was just how he was raised.

Ichigo waved off the introduction. "Please, you don't need to be formal around me. Especially here in the Living World," he said. "But it's nice to meet you Soji-san."

" Alright. " Soji said and saw the others head toward them. " I hope this goes well. " He thought.

"Yo" Chad said, surprised to see a newcomer with them. However, he sensed that this person wasn't a hostile.

" Hello I'm Soji Kimura. " He said to the newcomers and could sense something coming from the boy.

"It's nice to meet you Soji-san," Orihime said, as did the others. "Morning Tatsu-chan, Ichigo-kun," she added.

" Nice to meet you to. " Soji said to both Orihime. He grinned when Ishida came up and got out a note book. " Can I have your autograph? " Soji asked since this was the guy who almost defeated Kurotsuchi. He had a friend in the 12th division and things were getting dicey there.
