"At least," Ishida replied with a smile still on his face.

Hoshi rolled up the futon while Katia was in the shower and wondered what Ichigo and the others would think about Ishida and Katia being her cousin.

Ichigo woke up and took a quick shower, wanting to tell someone about what his Hollow and Zanpakuto Spirit told him last night. Both about himself, and about Katniss.

" Ready head on down Katia-chan ?" Hoshi asked with a small smile.

Katia nodded after getting dressed. "I just hope your friends are okay when we let them know we're related," she said a little nervous.

" I hope so too. " Hoshi said. She had the feeling that they would be okay with it, but figured they would be a little shocked.

"Can we head downstairs? I'm starting to get hungry," she said as her stomach growled lightly in agreement.

" Sure. What sounds good for breakfast?" Hoshi asked as she headed toward the stairs.

"hm...if you or your dad don't mind making them, pancakes?" she asked as she finished getting dressed.

" Pancakes sound good. " Hoshi said knowing it wouldn't be to hard to make some.

"Alright then," she said as she finished getting dressed and headed downstairs with Hoshi.

Hoshi said good morning to both her dad and to Ishida and asked them is they would like pancakes for breakfast. Hoshi had a good feeling about today, but was worried about Katniss for some reason.

"Pancakes sound good to me," Ishida said. "Can you save some for me after I'm done with my shower?" he asked, assuming that both girls had already taken one.

" Yep I can. " Hoshi said. She was concerned that something was bothering her dad. Hoshi got the things she would need for pancakes. " Katia would you like to help?" Hoshi asked.

"I'm not entirely sure what to do...," she said. When it came to breakfast at the Vandenreichs, everything was already prepared and you ate what you wanted. It was one of the small perks of being a member.

" Don't worry I can show you. " Hoshi said as she showed Katia how to make pancakes. She liked having the chance to teach someone.

Katia watched as Hoshi made pancakes, seeing how simple it was. "You make it look so simple..." she said with a small pout on her face.

" It is once you get the hang of it. I learned to make pancakes when I was 9. " Hoshi said and put a few more on the plate. She hoped there would be enough.

"That young?" Katia asked in surprise. She heard the shower upstairs stop flowing and assumed that Ishida was done with his shower.

"Yep. After my mom died I wanted to be of more help.Grandma helped me learn to cook. If you would like I could teach you ." Hoshi said finishing up the pancakes.

"I would like to learn," Katia said quickly.

" Alright. Let me know when you want me to teach you." Hoshi said as she got out the plates and syrup for the pancakes.

Katia nodded before asking where the silverware was, wanting to help.

" It's in the drawer under the toaster. " Hoshi said as she got the orange juice out and put it on the table.

"Thanks," she replied as she got out a few knives and forks before closing the drawer again. Seeing Ishida come down the stairs, she waved lightly to him.
