Katia nodded lightly as Hoshi explained what she was doing. "What about the shell? What happens if it goes with the egg that's inside the bowl?" she asked, curious.

" Sometimes that happens. Usually I take a small pairing knife to carefully fish the shell out. With the empty shell just put it in the trash once you are done. " Hoshi said as she cracked another egg into the bowl. " Are you ready for me to show you how to whisk it?" She asked.

"Is it because the egg tastes bad or something?" Katia asked before nodding to Hoshi's question.

" Egg shell isn't something anyone wants to find in their eggs. I'm whisking it to make it easier to cook in the pan." Hoshi said as she demonstrated how to mix the eggs togeather. " I promise the toast will be much easier to learn. " She said with a smile.

Katia watched to the side after nodding lightly, indicating that she understood. She hoped that the toast would be much easier, since it seemed like a lot to remember when it came to the eggs.

Hoshi finished up the eggs and put the bowl down. " I'll show you how to make toast before I start on the eggs. "Hoshi said as she got the bread and butter out. " First, you take two slices of bread and put a slice in each of the slots. Then you press the lever down. When it's done it will pop out and will be ready to be buttered.

"That easy?" Katia asked, surprised after she listened to what Hoshi said and watched what her cousin did with both the eggs and the bread.

" Yep. Do you want to butter the bread when it is ready?" Hoshi asked " The butter knives are right here when you need them. Do you want to try to make toast when these slices are done?" She asked.

"Sure," Katia said after Hoshi pointed out where the butter knives were. That was one of the few things she knew how to do thankfully. "I can try. I just have to put the bread in the toaster, right?" she asked, double checking to make sure.

" Right. Just put the bread in and put the lever down." Hoshi said with a smile as she put butter in the frying pan." When you cook the eggs it's best to put a little bit of butter before the eggs cook. It keeps the eggs from sticking to the pan." She added.

Katia nodded as she put the bread in and pushed the lever down, glad that her cousin was teaching her.

" Now that the pan is hot the eggs can be added." Hoshi said as she carefully poured the eggs in the pan. "Move them around with the spatula so they don't cook all together and you have them broken up." Hoshi said demonstrating.

Katia watched as Hoshi moved the eggs in the pan with the spatula, making sure that they didn't break up. Soon she saw the eggs turn from a liquid into a solid before also hearing the bread coming out of the toaster.

"Morning Hoshi-chan, Katia-chan," Ishida said as he came into the kitchen, hopefully not interrupting the cooking lesson.

" Morning Uyru-san. Hoped you slept well last night. Breakfast is almost ready." Hoshi said with a smile.

"I did, thank you. What about you two ladies? Did you sleep well?" He asked, seeing that breakfast was indeed almost ready.

" I slept alright." Hoshi said. She wanted to wait for her dad to be in the room before she told about the dream.

Ishida raised an eyebrow as he saw that Hoshi was hiding something from him, but didn't pry. He had a feeling that she saw something bad happen in a vision or something.

"Breakfast is ready. " Hoshi said and put the eggs in a serving dish.

Tetsu entered the kitchen and was glad to see Hoshi teaching Katia to cook. He was a bit nervous , not sure how Ichigo would react to knowing Katia was being questioned today.

Ishida grabbed the plates and placed them next to the eggs, keeping one for himself as he took some eggs and toast before heading to the table. Before eating, he thanked the girls for the food.

Hoshi took some eggs and toast and sat at the table. She hoped today went well and that no one would react badly to the dream she had.

Katia took some food for herself before sitting down at the table, silently hoping that her uncle or cousins wouldn't get mad when Hoshi revealed the vision that she had.

Hoshi finished her breakfast and got ready to tell both her dad and Ishida." I have something I need to tell the both of of you. In the dream I had last night both me and Katia were fighting hollows and somehow we got separated. I tried to get to her but it felt like someone was restraining me and I saw her being taken. I got a good look at the man who took Katia in the dream, but I just hope it doesn't happen." Hoshi said hoping they wouldn't react badly.

Tetsu listened carefully. He knew now that the Vandenreich could be after Hoshi now. He didn't want to ask what else happened in the dream.

Katia gulped lightly before adding what she told Hoshi earlier. "Hoshi explained what she saw to me and I think I know who it is. I don't know his official name, but the Leader made us call him 'Uncle'...and I think that 'Uncle' is considered the second strongest that the Vandenreich have," she added before either Tetsu or Ishida could say anything.

Ishida had listened, both to Hoshi and then to Katia before thinking of a reply. "Katia-chan, Hoshi-chan, they'll have to kill me before they take either one of you," he spoke with conviction.

" They'll have to do the same to me too. " Tetsu said. He would do anything he could to keep Katia and Hoshi safe. He also wondered how strong these Vandenreich could be and wondered what sort of techniques they could have developed over the last 200 years.

Hoshi was glad that her her dad and Uryu didn't react badly. She hoped that it didn't happen at all. " I'll do dishes once everyone is done. Hoshi said after a while.

"Thank you uncle, Ishida-kun," Katia responded, glad that both of them had not taken the news badly. She just hoped that when Soi-fong heard the news that she or the other members wouldn't go overboard when it comes to their protection, if they decided to do as such.
