" Thank you guys. I was headed here anyway since I needed to get away from the stuff Artie's been sending me lately. You don't don't want to know what artifacts I've read about. " Claudia said.

"That bad?" Kisuke asked, curious as to what type of artifact Claudia was looking for...or more correctly, what Artie was having her look for. "You can always call on one of us to help, if you need us...you know that, right?" he asked.

" That bad. It's just routine stuff. I usually do it since Artie would rather not do it. "Claudia said.

Yoruichi came into the room after thinking she heard Claudia and Katniss, surprised to know that she was actually right. "Claudia?"

" Hello Yoruichi-san. How have you been?" Claudia asked but still felt that uneasy feeling in the air. "What's going on that your aren't telling me?" She asked.

Yoruichi looked at her boyfriend for a second before getting a nod and explained what was going on.

" So this guy Kusaka is an old friend of Captain Hitsugaya's? And Hoshi is in trouble. What can I do to help?" Claudia asked.

"You don't have to help, you know" Yoruichi said.

" I know. But I do want to train some more. " Claudia said wanting to be of some help.

"Speaking of which, how is your control?" the feline asked.

" It still needs improvement. " Claudia admitted.

"Then I'm sure we can help you, while also helping the others," she said as Kisuke quickly agreed.

Claudia smiled. " Thanks you guys. " She said. "Is there a chance I can take a nap before we train?" Claudia asked with a yawn.

"I'm sure that can be arranged," Kisuke responded, knowing that no one was using the second room at the moment.

"Thanks. Kisuke." Claudia said." I spent too much time last night entering files. "She added with a yawn.

"At least you're here, away from the Reagents," Kisuke replied before telling her to get some sleep. "Thanks Katniss," he said once he turned towards the shinigami archer.

" Any thing to help out a friend of yours. Do you think it's Kusaka that's here?" She asked fearing the worst.

"We believe so. Though what he plans on doing right now is anybody's guess," Kisuke replied.

" I'm just concerned that this is a part of Hoshi's vision. " Yoruichi said concerned.

[COLOR="Lime"]"It might be, but at the moment, we have no idea where he's at. For all we know, he could be at the school...or not even know who Hoshi is at the moment, best case scenario," he replied./COLOR]

" Let's hope he doesn't know about Hoshi. " Yoruichi said.

"We can only hope," he replied, sighing lightly.

" Can we eat inside today?" Hoshi asked her friends worried that someone was watching her.

"Sure, we can. What's wrong Star-chan?" he asked.

" I have a feeling someone is here to try and capture me." Hoshi said and shuddered.
