Hotaru let out an extremely bored sigh, flipping her snow white hair away from her eyes. A haircut was needed, but that didn't mean she was actually going to do it. Toushiro, her step-brother(same father) was currently pouring over some kind of paperwork, eyes scanning the sheet swiftly. His green eyes matched the eyes of Hotaru, but hers were wide and bright with life. Toushiro's were narrowed and dark from many battles and trials he had gone through. The girl let out another long sigh, eyes glittering when she stared at Toushiro.

Toushiro ignored her, pinching the edge of the paper as he flipped a page and began to scribble something. The girl, wearing the same clothing as Toushiro--aside from the slimming, feminine charm added to it--let out a loud sigh, leaning forward. Her brother snapped the papers down, narrowing his eyes at her, those wrinkles on his forehead showing now. "What do you want?" he snapped, eye twitching. She smiled, walking two fingers towards his hand before she snatched it into her own, beginning to pull him.

"Come on! Let's go eat something! You've been working for hours now! I've been waiting here foreeeeveeeer!" she moaned, pulling the male. He growled and snatched his hand back, rubbing his wrist. "No! I have a lot of work to do; I don't have time to play with a kid like you," he smirked. It was because he actually a position even though they were almost the same age. He was just a month older than her. Her eyes glinted dangerously and she brought out her sword, the item frozen, as it always was. She twisted the handle and without a word pointed it at her brother, grinning as the point touched his chest.

His eyes bore into her as he glared, slamming the papers down. Usually he was a calm soul, but she really got to him sometimes. "Fine!" He walked around the other side of his desk and grabbed her hand, pulling her towards the doorway. She smiled and skipped with him, her bipolar attitude something he had gotten used to. He opened a portal to the human world, knowing she loved to eat here. Perhaps Ichigo would be seen.

Now it was Hotaru's turn to pull him, leading him to her favorite pizza place. "Joe's pizza! Hurry up! All the pizza will be gooone~" she cooed, stroking his arm. He sighed and pulled back, going even slower. "They will not run out of pizza at a pizza parlor!" he retorted, eyes widening as the next part was coming. The tears. A sniffle escaped from Hotaru and she let out a sob, tears filling her eyes and making them widen and shimmer.

"B-But you promised! If it runs out I blame you!" people were beginning to look at the two in irritation, her sobbing getting louder. He wasn't really sure if she was really crying because her personality was so messed up like that. He sighed and pinched the area between his eyebrows, shaking his white head of hair. "Come on then." He sounded weary, grabbing her arm to pull her along. He was going to snap sooner or later...

They arrived at the pizza place, Toushiro and Hotaru sniffing the air. "Pizza smells so-Ichigo!" she spoke out mid-sentence, holding out her arms in a perpetual hug as Ichigo paused from chewing on a slice of pizza. He grunted when he recognized the peppy girl, standing up. "Hotaru!" he charged at her, intent on giving her a big bear hug, pizza still hanging in his mouth. Hotaru loved getting squeezed by people bigger than her, especially Ichigo. With a grin she waited as he came over, but her grin faded when Toushiro stepped in.

He was ********.

Ichigo couldn't stop now, even when Toushiro yelled at him to cut out this nonsense. Ichigo did have the sense to try and stop, stumbling forward as his pizza slid from his mouth....and slapped Toushiro right in the face. He was rigid, his fingers curling with surprised. Hotaru gasped, covering her mouth. "T-Toushiro?" The pizza slowly slid off of his face, sauce dripping down his nose and chin. He looked absolutely furious, his eyes dancing with fire. His sword appeared in his hand and he held out the frosty blade as he summoned his bankai.

"ICHIGO!"

That was why you should never run with pizza careening towards someone.
