In the World of the Living

(Y/N)'s POV

(Y/N): Lost track of her again...

(Y/N) was struggling to find any sort of hint of Roka's whereabouts. This wasn't a matter of having a problem feeling her spiritual pressure like with the fullbringers. It was almost like she completely disappeared off the map and reappeared in a completely different location.

(Y/N): She seemed to have avoided any hollows that I summoned. Almost as if she knows where they are...

Just then, (Y/N) saw a golden thread in the corner of his eyes.

(Y/N): And what are these golden threads? It's obvious that it's coming from her but they don't actually lead to her location.

(Y/N) attempted to follow one of the golden threads before but to no luck. (Y/N) tried to brainstorm what those threads were used for.

(Y/N): Are these threads some sort of tripwire? Interacting with them does nothing to me... Maybe it's an alarm. Something to alert her of our location... Is that her ability? If so, that may explain how she's able to out maneuver us so well. But even so, how does she change locations so fast...

(Y/N) stood on top of a building as he continued to put together any small information that he could collect.

(Y/N): Think, (Y/N)... Is it speed? Is she using Sonido? If so I should be able to theoretically keep up. No it couldn't be. Do those threads give her some sort of instantaneous movement? That could be a possibility. Or maybe...

...

...

...

(Y/N): She's traveling back and forth between worlds... But that would take too much spiritual energy to pull off. To do it in rapid succession like that, she must have a huge pool of spiritual energy. I have to find a way to corner her the next time she enters the Garganta.

(Y/N) was once again racking his brain thinking of ideas.

(Y/N): Man... it's like no matter what she has us wrapped around her finger. Why did she make herself known to us in the first place? Was it an accident? Did Szayelaporro tell her to reveal herself to throw us off of his trail? If he did, what would happen if we went after him instead of her? *sigh* I feel like I'm getting nowhere. If only I could keep her in place...

...

...

...

!!!

(Y/N): I just had an idea... Man I wish I knew Tenteikūra to make communication easier in this instance.

(Y/N) took out his phone and started to make a call.

(Meanwhile) Ichigo and Orihime POV

Ichigo was feeling a bit frustrated. The search wasn't getting anywhere at the moment.

Ichigo: We're basically on a wild goose chase.

Orihime: According to (Y/N), this is the best we can do right now. The situation seems pretty serious.

Ichigo: Yeah, but it's still annoying to have to run around with no sense of direction.

Orihime chuckled at Ichigo's behavior. Seeing him back to his normal self was nice to see.

Orihime: How does it feel?

Ichigo: Huh?

Orihime: To have your powers back?
