Riku P.O.V
I flipped the page, wondering what would happen to the warrior and the villain. He got up, reaching for his sword and-
"Riku, eat your lunch or it'll get cold."
I looked to the girl who took a seat before me.
"Go away, Kanna."
She frowned, taking some of my food.
"New manga?" She asked.
I said nothing, continuing my reading as she sighed.
"I swear, you are such a dork."
"And you're a fatty." I mumbled as she frowned, grabbing my ear, squeezing it.
"Repeat that, please?"
"I said you're a kind person!" I groaned as she let go. I rubbed my ear, frowning. "Why'd you even sit over here? Aren't your friends over there?"
We looked over to the group of kids huddled around one table, laughing together.
"They're not my friends. They only gossip and talk badly about people. You're my true friend." She smiled.
I said nothing. She sighed again, reaching in her bag for a manga.
"I've got the newest volume for Hatchi-"
I looked up, smiling.
"You're always welcome, friend." I said kindly.
"Whatever..." she mumbled, smiling. "Did you hear that the mangaka got sick?"
"Really?" I asked, flipping through the pages.
"Yeah, he won't draw until he gets better." She told me.
I looked at the cover, rasing an eyebrow.
"Hope he gets better..." I said before the bell rang, and class started again.
Kanna went back to her seat, taking she manga with her.
I sighed, looking at the clock.
...I have work today.

Ichigo P.O.V
"Ichigo, do you think he'll be here?" Rukia asked.
I frowned, seeing kids exit the building.
"...I can sense his aura. It's faint, but here." I told her.
There's a chance he avoids us and-
"RIKU, YOU ASSHOLE!"
I looked to the field, seeing the same kid from yesterday running from a girl holding a book ripped in half.
He ran quickly, passing the other kids.
He flew past us, and stopped.
"You..?!" We both said, before the girl head butt him in the side.
He fell over, eyes going white.
She grabbed his collar, shaking him and hitting him with the book.
"...Uhm, is it normal for human girls to do that?" Rukia asked.
