The morning Shinobu woke up.
Shinobu sees Giyuu sitting right next to her, "Tomioka-San?" Shinobu said lightly as she was waking up. "Hey Kocho" Tomioka said. "Nn..did you need something?" Shinobu said. "I can't just visit my love?" Tomioka said giving Shinobu a kiss on the forehead. Shinobu slightly blushed. "I did have a question though actually." "What is it?" Shinobu said. "Did that Douma say anything to you?" Tomioka said. "Oh..um, not really, well besides a thing where you were with a boy." Tomioka replied, "Yea he's just stupid and makes fake scenarios that haven't even happened." .."Yea." Giyuu continues to put her in his arms.
A couple of minutes pass by, "Um, hey, I'm going to go out to get fresh air, I'll see you later ok?" Shinobu said "Yea, that's cool." Giyuu said. As she walks out, blinded by the sun, she still can't get that annoying feeling of being watched constantly. Mitsuri wanted to meet Shinobu for lunch in the Wisteria Forest. Shinobu passes by a tall peach haired boy, at first glimpse she mistaken him for Mitsuri, "Oh, hey Mitsu-" She realized it wasn't her, but she saw the very similar patterns on his Haori to Tomiokas. Sabito, just stood there and glared at her. "Oh, sorry, I mistaken you for someone. I never seen you around here before? Who are you?" Sabito continued to glare at her, he responded "My information is none of your business. Are you a Hashira or something? And I've been on recovery for more than a couple of years." Sabito said. Shinobu started walking off, "Fine don't tell me, I'll just get it from Kagaya. And noting you are a disrespectful slayer." Shinobu said. "Oh, and..stay away from Giyuu." he lastly said. Shinobu was a little shocked and confused. Not knowing what he meant by that.
Shinobu continued to walk and act like nothing happened, she eventually found Mitsuri , they sat together and had lunch."Erm, Shinobu-chan?" Mitsuri asked. "Hm? What is it Kanroji-san?" .."Well I've been meaning to share this with you, but I couldn't think of any other way to say it! So! Um..!" Mitsuri said. "Hm? Are you ok you look sick, you can tell me!" Shinobu said. "So well, um! I've liked you for awhile now! More than friends! Your just so cute and n-nice!" Mitsuri shouted in embarrassment. Shinobu hugged Mitsuri and said, "I'm sorry, I think your cute too! But I love you as a friend. Promise we are still friends?" Mitsuri hugged her back, "it's ok I understand! I just wanted to get it off my chest. Of course we're still friends!" Shinobu knows Iguro's feelings for Mitsuri and didn't want him heartbroken, since Shinobu and him are good friends.
Shinobu, already tired, she was walking to find Kanao, she sees the peach haired boy again, but he's talking to Tomioka. "Why is he with Tomioka..and I still don't even know who he is.." she remembers him telling her to stay away from Tomioka. "Could he like him..?" She then also remembers Douma telling her about a man named "Sabito." "Could he be? No..Douma is a liar. Tomioka isn't even into men, plus there is no 'Sabito' here." She continues to look at him for a few more seconds, he turns around and gives her a hard glare into her eyes. Shinobu then starts to get angry, but continues to ignore him. "What were you looking at just now?" Tomioka said to Sabito. "Oh, just saw a pest is all." Sabito replied.
Douma, again, was spying on Sabito and Tomioka, as well he's just been spying the whole time.. Shinobu goes to the garden where Kanao usually is, she sees Kanao and Muichiro, they both hugged Shinobu, "Sis I'm so glad your ok!" Kanao said, "Of course I'm fine! Why would I be?" Shinobu laughed a little. "Not only the fight, but Douma took you into a room last night." Mui said. Shinobu a little shocked, "Oh, yeah, I'm fine! I think he only treated my wounds..I hope."
Giyuu and Sabito together, Sabito laying on Giyuu. "You are not seeing anyone else other than me is that right Giyuu?" Sabito asked, "Well, before we reunited I was using this Hashira, her name is Kocho Shinobu. But it isn't like she is anything special. She's very weak after all, I am only using her because everyone likes her and if I get on her side no one will be against me." Tomioka said. "Giyuu, you shouldn't underestimate your peers, especially if they are a Hashira like you are. But, I'd love to have a 'meet' with this Kocho girl. What does she look like?" Sabito said. Tomioka replied "She is very small and short, she has black hair with purple ends, with the rest of her hair tied up in a butterfly pin, a very big butterfly patterned haori. But she also has a sister who is a Hashira as well with slightly more talent, her name is Kocho Kanae, she has very long black hair, with 2 butterfly pins on the side, and she has the same matching haori as Shinobu, and she's also small but slightly taller." Tomioka said. "Great, that's more than enough." Sabito said. "What do you plan on doing Sabito?" .. "hm..I'm just going to 'meet' Shinobu later on." Sabito gives Tomioka a kiss.
Douma POV.. ..Augh. I hate them so much. It's not like she will even believe me, I'll just spy on them later when this Sabito bitch "meets" her later. I know what he's all about. I don't care if I spy too much. He totally underestimates her. She isn't even weak, Uzui is the weakest Hashira. There are 10 hashiras excluding Kyojuro because he died 1 year ago. Oh and what was Kanroji's problem, thinking she can get Shinobu away from me! She's better with Iguro..ugh. I'm going to go to the garden to spy on Shinobu-chan again~!
It started to get dark, the sun was barely out only emitting a little but of light left. Muichiro started to fall asleep on Shinobu as she was singing him a sweet lullaby. Yes, Muichiro likes to listen to her sing, he thinks of her as a mother but a best friend too. Kanao was also falling sleep on Shinobu.
Shinobu saw how dark it was getting, she woke up Kanao to go to her room to sleep, she picked up Muichiro and put him to sleep in his bed. Shinobu left Tokito's mansion, she went back to the Butterfly mansion, as she was going to the mansion, she was stopped by the peach haired boy again, Sabito. "Hey. Your Kocho Shinobu, yes?" He asked. "I am. You again? Since you know my name why don't you tell me yours now, hm?" She said not so politely. "Sabito." He said. She had his back turned because she was already tired of seeing his face.
