( Her name was Hotaru. )
" "It isn't but still some are wary. " Tier said.

(Thanks)

"So...what are Ichigo and the others doing?" Tetsu asked curiously.

"I told the gaki to take the day off, enjoy it with his girlfriend. When he said that he'd rather be training so that he could help save their friend, I replied that all work and no play makes you dead inside" Isshin replied.

" That's true. Hoshi and Katia are out with Toshiro and Souji. The girls need the break. " Tetsu said.

"You could always use a break as well old friend. I'm sure Hotaru-chan would be happy that you're seeing other women now." he added before seeing three other females heading outside.

" I know I do. But not while there is trouble out there. " Tetsu said. " I know she would be happy. " He said with a small smile.

"She probably would," Isshin said with a soft smile. "Anyways, now that we're all here, let's head out. How do we want to separate our forces?"

" We should separte into teams and each take an area to search. " Tetsu said.

"Good idea. Apache, Sung-sun will be a team and Mila Rose will go with you Isshin, if that is acceptable?" Tier asked.

" Sounds like a good idea. " Isshin said.

"Sounds good to me," Tetsu replied

" It is. Are we ready?" Tier asked.

Tetsu and the others nodded. "We are," they all responded.

" Now if we find anything , how soon should we meet up with you?" Tier asked.

"As quickly as possible," Isshin replied

Tetsu nodded and looked at Tier. " Are we ready. "

Tier nodded. "I believe we are," she responded though silently wondered why Hydro meant when she would be able to unlock her full name soon.

Hoshi was having a good time but felt uneasy. This felt too much like the dream she had the night before and tried not to let it bother her.

"Hoshi, you alright?" Toushiro asked as he noticed his girlfriend starting to be a little nervous about something. Though he wasn't sure what it was...

Hoshi shook her head no. " It seems to much like my dream. Though I'm not going to let that ruin today. " She said.

"What happened?" he asked concerned, ready to get out of his gigai at a moment's notice.

" I was separated from the group. But Katia told me that Tier-San follows me. I trust her very much and know she isn't working for Kusaka. But I still fear that he's going to get me. " Hoshi said.

"But you didn't see me there, and I'm here now. I'm not going to let my old friend get you Star-chan, and if he does, I'd confront him in order to get you back," he responded before squeezing her hand lightly.

Hoshi gave a smile. " I'm glad you are here. " She said. "Maybe what I saw was a possible future but not the one that could happen. "

"Let's hope so," Toushiro responded as they saw the restaurant in the distance.

" Things seem alright. "'Tetsu said having seen a few hollows , though even those few weren't very strong.
