Hoshi was glad to see Ichigo happy, knowing he did miss seeing Rukia. Hoshi had missed her too, remembering the first time they had met. Hoshi smiled when she remembered the Saturday after she moved back to Karakura town and the things that had happened soon afterward.She knew that those things would had never happened if her dad had taken the job in California instead.We better head on in ." Hoshi said when she heard the bell ring.

Tatsuki was about to say something before everyone present heard the bell ring. Sighing, she headed to class with the others. She was glad to see Ichigo happy with Rukia coming back and was glad to see her as well.

Hoshi sat at her desk and handed in her homework and tried her best to concentrate on taking notes. She still had a feeling something bad was going to happen soon. She also hoped she could visit Ishida over the weekend and was glad Orihime would find out if he was allowed visitors yet. Hoshi continued to take notes and was glad when the bell rang, signaling the end of the day.

Elva kept an eye on Tatsuki, turning her head to look at the raven-haired youth every five or so seconds. She wanted to make sure that Tatsuki was still there, especially after the vision she had.

Tatsuki noticed that Elva was looking back at her every few seconds and it was starting to bother her. She did her best to ignore it though as she took notes after passing her homework up to the front. Once the bell for school sounded, she got up like the rest of the students and headed towards Hoshi and Elva. "Elva-chan, is there something wrong?" Tatsuki asked, knowing that there was a reason the spirit was looking at her.

Hoshi saw Elva head out of the classroom, hoping that she would tell Tatsuki about the dream. Hoshi helped with the chairs and waited for Elva and Tatsuki. Hoshi sensed someone watching her as she waited in the hall, wondering if she was being watched by someone. She had her guard up and would defend herself if she needed to.

Tatsuki followed Elva out of the classroom, waiting for an explanation. Seeing the girl stop and turn to face her once they were outside, Tatsuki waited for Elva to talk.

"I'm sorry for annoying you today Tatsuki-chan, but...well you see, I had a dream vision last night," she started speaking as she explained what she saw in her dream. Once she was finished, she saw Tatsuki looking at her with a surprised look on her face.

Hoshi looked out one of the windows of the hallway that looked out to the front gate. She thought she sensed Rukia nearby as well as another Shinigami. She knew it wasn't Ichigo or Tatsuki she felt. She had her guard up high and hoped they all were safe.

Rukia was keeping an eye on the surroundings before she felt another reiatsu source. About to get out her Zanpakuto, she sighed lightly in relief. "Nii-sama, what brings you here?" she asked as Byakuya came next to her.

Hoshi wondered where Ichigo was , hoping he didn't sense the Shinigami. " Tatsu. I'll meet you downstairs. I want to get to the library before it closes. Hoshi hoped things were safe for her to go down. She wanted to see who was there , but had the feeling it was a bad idea.

Ichigo sensed the reiatsu from outside and scowled, knowing that it was Byakuya's. He also sensed someone else in the library and that Hoshi was heading towards it as well. Not liking the idea of Hoshi heading to the library where someone else was, he also headed in that direction.

" Is everything okay?" Hoshi asked Ichigo when she saw him. She did sense something in the library and wondered what could be.

Arashi Hirose was in the school library waiting . He hoped that the information he had got from the Doll was correct about the Seer girl. He also sensed a familiar presence close by and tensed up. He didn't like the fact the Soul Society was involved now. He knew the Bount leader would displeased with this information.

"Yeah," Ichigo said before hearing a shout coming from around the corner. Tensing up, he relaxed lightly when it was only Elva, but was still worried when he saw the look on her face. "Elva-san?" he asked tentatively.

"I tried stopping them, but I couldn't. Hoshi...my vision came true," Elva said as tears started falling from her eyes. Even if someone said she was crying, she would tell that person he or she was lying.

"Vision?" Ichigo asked as he turned to Hoshi, curiosity written on his face.

Hoshi tensed up " It isn't your fault Elva-chan. I should have never left. If anything it's my fault. " Hoshi said sadly. " Elva had a vision that the Bount had taken Tatsuki and she was bloodied and tied up. Elva and I decided before we left for school that Tatsuki needed to know. We both wanted to prevent her from getting captured. " Hoshi said feeling tears fall down her face and felt a sense of evil nearby.

Hirose knew the Bount couldn't carry out thier plan with out the Seer. He was close to where Hoshi was standing with the orange haired boy. He could sense strong spiritual pressure from him and had to some how distract Ichigo. He didn't like the fact that the other Shinigami were coming closer either.

"But I should have been able to do something! I saw him just before he used his doll to blind both me and Tatsuki..." Elva started saying in anger.

Growling lightly and not thinking straight, Ichigo almost bolted to where the bastard had taken Tatsuki. However, he knew that there was another spirit in here somewhere and didn't know his or her intentions. Silently praying that Rukia and her bastard of a brother decided to help and stall the Bount, he turned his attention to the library.

Hoshi was angry that the Bount had done that both her friends. She knew that she would have been captured too if she had stayed upstairs, and felt guilty that she didn't protect her friend.Hoshi silently vowed she would do everything she could to get Tatsuki back.

Hirose got closer to the entrance of the library. He only had one chance to get the Seer, and had to get pass Ichigo in order to do so.

Ichigo was finally calming down and focusing, intent on finding Tatsuki's spirit tag. He knew that the color for Shinigami was red, but he had an idea that the Bount's spirit tag color would be different than regular humans and shinigami. As such, he didn't notice the shinigami creeping towards himself and Hoshi.

" Looking for someone?" Hirose said as he appeared directly behind both Hoshi and Ichigo. He knew he had to grab her quickly, but was waiting for one of the Dolls to create a distraction. He knew he would have shunpo as fast as possible toward the Bount's base without getting caught.

Ichigo was distracted by the voice that came from his left and felt the technique unravel. "Yeah. How did you-" Ichigo started to say before he felt several dolls coming from all sides. He felt Byakuya take care of the iron doll and Rukia taking care of the ice doll. However, what he didn't sense was the shinigami in front of him moving.

" How did I hide myself? I best not tell you my secrets." Hirose said feeling the dolls being defeated , and went to the next plan. He grabbed Hoshi by the arm.He wouldn't take Hoshi until he got the signal from the Lead Bount's doll.

Hoshi tried to move away fast enough, but knew he must have shunpoed behind her. She thought about getting in her shinigami form, but wasn't sure if that was a good idea. She had to somehow get free from his grip.

"Star!" Ichigo shouted as he reached for Zangetsu, before realizing that he wasn't in his shinigami form. Growling lightly, he ran towards the shinigami. He didn't know what he could do, but he would be damned if he didn't try something to help Hoshi.

Hoshi struggled to get free, but knew she was too weak in her human form .

Hirose was wondering what was taking the Doll so long to create the distraction and was suddenly knocked to the ground. It sent both him and Hoshi to the floor. Hoshi was free and surprised to see her dad.

" Get some place safe." Tetsu said in an urgent voice. Hoshi nodded and ran , not sure of where to go. She saw an open closet and went inside and locked the door. She turned on the light and sat on a box feeling very afraid and had her guard up.She wondered how her dad knew she was in trouble.

"Tetsu-san?" Ichigo asked in a confused voice. Seeing Elva looking on in a scared voice, he quickly gets next to her. "Elva-chan, I need your help," he said. What he had in mind was risky as all hell, but he was going to help either find Tatsuki or help tear this shinigami a new asshole.

" Ichigo . Find Hoshi and get her somewhere safe. " Tetsu said as he got ready to face Hirose and take this fight outside.
Hoshi sat in the closet waiting for Ichigo , feeling afraid and confused as to why her dad suddenly appeared. She had to go rescue Tatsuki , not wanting her friend to get hurt. Hoshi hated herself for leaving her friend alone.

Hirose had to get out of here quickly , knowing that the Dolls had left and that the other two shinigami were heading in this direction.He had to distract this Shinigami and get the Seer.

Ichigo nodded in confusion. Scrapping his desperate idea, he focused on finding Hoshi's reiatsu signature. Once he honed in on it, even if it was a pain to do it while running, he soon quickly came to the closet door that Hoshi locked herself into. "Star-chan, it's me, open the door!" Ichigo shouted once he stood in front of the closet door.

Elva followed Ichigo, making sure to keep him in her sights at all times as he quickly moved down the hallways, going left and right, turning and running at the same time in order to keep moving.

Byakuya had finished with the doll that he was facing and noticed that his adopted sister was finishing up against her own opponent. Sensing a spirit inside the school building that shouldn't have belonged to, he headed towards it, noticing that Rukia was following him inside.

Hoshi snapped to attention ,unlocking the door and opened it to see both Ichigo and Elva standing outside. She could sense the evil presence and felt tense .She stood up getting ready to find some place safe. " Where should we go?" Hoshi asked in a scared voice.

Tetsu did his best to keep his emotions in check. He had to get the rogue restrained and turned over for questioning . Tetsu needed to keep him here until Captain Kuchiki arrived. Tetsu also knew he would have to explain to Hoshi why he was here today .

Hirose felt tense, not wanting to get caught . He hated that he had been set up by the Bount and left here. He still wouldn't tell the other Shinigami anything he knew about the plan. He grinned knowing that the Bount would not stop until they had the Seer. He also had an escape plan if he was captured.
