Tomioka's POV

The resemblance of them freaks me out; just who is this girl?

She looks and acts just like...

Sabito.

-

The brush and the blank piece of paper lays in front of me untouched.

What am I even supposed to write to him? 'I found this girl and she looks like Sabito. Know her by any chance?'

Extremely awkward start.

I pick up my brush slowly, and dip it in ink. 

Moving my hand toward the paper, I place the brush down.

And start writing.

Urokodaki's POV

"A letter?" I mumble to myself, sending Tomioka's crow back. "Something must've came up."

I open the letter carefully, trying to not rip the paper.

Dear Urokodaki-sensei,

I am writing this letter to you because of this young girl I met today. She is very talented, and even Gyomei praised her with her strengths.

Sounds a lot like someone I know. My mind trails off, but I snap back into reading the letter.

But I am not writing this to you because I want her to train with you or anything. It's very strange. I even thought I was hallucinating. 
This girl, she looks just like Sabito, and acts like him too.

Sabito..

I was wondering if you knew her by chance. Please, come meet us at Master Ubuyashiki's estate as soon as you get this letter.
I will be expecting you a day or two after I send this letter to you.

Yours truly, Tomioka Giyuu. 

I fold the letter close.

Looks and act just like Sabito, huh?

I dig through my memory when I first found the boy; back at his home.

Well...

Nothing. It was just me slaying a demon, and then Sabito in my hands. Just then the former thunder pillar came.. what an annoying friend he could be sometime.

Could he have seen something? No, he left right after we chatted a little, right? My memory is a bit foggy there.

Nevertheless, I put on my cloud haori and my sword. It's time for me to visit the water pillar.

Kiyo's POV

"Ne, Tomioka-san! Are you here- no." I frown as I see the insect pillar sitting down in her chair, doodling something down on her paper.

She looks up with her usual smile. "Ah, Kiyo-san! Disappointed to see me?"

"No!" I shake my head. "I was just looking for Tomioka-san."

She seemed rather surprised by this answer. "Tomioka-san has friends that look for him? That's quite the news!"

"Wha-?" I tilt my head in confusion. "He doesn't have friends?"

"Not that I know of, no. Oh, you're his friend, aren't you? I know one now."

"But he's a cool guy!"

Kocho-san chuckles. "If you want to know where Tomioka is, he might be back at his estate. I suggest you hang around here for now. I have some fellow slayers healing here if you'd like to meet them!"
