"Hey, have you heard of the new School Mysteries?"

"Oh? The one with Hanako San of The Bathroom?"

"No, no! I meant the new ones! They were a lot of signs where there are new School Mysteries in this school!"

"Really? Mind telling me about them?"

"Hmm.... how about we start with my favorite one, Sakura Kun of The Garden!"

"Sounds good!"

"Rumor has it, a boy in a blue cloak that covers his top wanders in the school garden. He grants certain wishes to those who summon him. And in return, he takes away an important memory that was held dear to the summoner."

"That's quite a gamble...."

"Well... You can't get something without losing something."

"How do you summon him?"

"To summon him, you must hold a cherry blossom in your hand under the cherry blossom tree and say this sentence "When hope is lost, kindness will come with the sweet smell of cherry blossoms." And when he replies "When the cherry blossoms bloom, it will be a new day.", then you have successfully summoned him!"

"Wow!"

The two girls kept talking about the school rumor until they attracted a girl with shoulder-length pink hair and green ribbons entangled in the braids behind her head. She stopped at the Kamome Academy school hallway  and thought "Maybe he can help..."

Since she still has 30 minutes of recess, she walks to the school garden. She looked around to see if anyone is nearby. 

She picks up a cherry blossom from the ground and said "When hope is lost, kindness will come with the sweet smell of cherry blossoms"

She waited.

And she waited.

Nothing.

"It was just a silly rumor after all", she sighed and dropped the flower in her hand. 

Just as she was about to leave, a slight breeze hits her face. She suddenly smells a sweet scent.

The scent of cherry blossoms.

She sees a transparent boy come down from the tree. A blue cloak wrapped around his top, a white western shirt underneath it, and navy school pants. He also wears white school shoes and white socks. Dark brown fluffy hair that almost completely covers his right eye and light skin.

As he looks at her in the eye, she sees dark pink eyes and a soft nostalgic smile. The transparent boy spoke to her, saying "When the cherry blossoms bloom, it will be a new day."

And there it is, she summoned Sakura Kun of The Garden.

"I assume that you summoned me." Sakura Kun looks at the girl.

The girl stayed quiet. They stood there awkwardly for a few seconds, not knowing how to act.

 Suddenly the girl's fist was cocked back, aiming for Sakura Kun's face, and released with a battle cry. Sakura Kun quickly flinches the sudden punch.

"FIGHT ME! FIGHT ME!" The girl yells at him.

Sakura Kun, looking confused asked, "Why?"

"BECAUSE I SAID SO!!" She yelled at the top of her lungs.

Sakura Kun steadies himself, and a warm smile spreads across his face, looking calm. "Mind telling me your name first?"

"My name is Ichigo Minamoto! A first-year high school student of Kamome Academy! I am also not afraid of ghosts like you!"
