Hitsugaya sat up rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. "Whoo! Good nap."
His hand slowly went to his zanpakuto as he felt a threatening presence residing within the same walls he was in. As soon as he drew his Zanpukato a wall of ice engulfed him and shattered, leaving a cloud of icy dust to spread throughout the room. What stood there was an ice replica of himself as he sat on a branch outside the window looking in. "Who the hell is in there? I hope they don't want to fight because I just cleaned that damn place." He muttered under a whisper.
((haha sorry about the late reply, i was up at school. Ill be active starting friday though smile ))

Kurai stood from where she'd melded into the shadows. Stalking out to the middle of the room where the ice-clone stood, she inclined her head, as if testing the air. Sightless eyes snapped to the window, staring distantly at the tree in which Hitsugaya sat.
"What are you doing in my house?" The question was slightly threatening. Kurai did not trust easily. Her past experiences did not allow her to do so.

Hitsugaya's face lightened up as he jumped from the branch, through her window and landed in front of her. "Cleaning! Haha doesn't it smell better than before? I didn't mean to disrespect you or this manor...I thought it was abandoned so I though I'd clean it up a bit."

"Oh.." Kurai's brows knit in mild confusion. She was taken slightly aback by the benign answer. Her sharp ears detected the sincerity in Hitsugaya's tone. If he had been lying, she would have heard it.
Her guard dropped a fraction, but she was still on the defensive. People had many reactions to her appearance. Not all positive, for she looked exactly like a young Yoruichi. But for the softness of her face, she could have been Yoruichi's twin.
"Um..No, it's fine. Sorry," Kurai stumbled over her explanation. "It--it was abandoned, but..." She cleared her throat, starting again. "Sorry, but who are you? I'm Kuraime Shihouin,"

Hitsugaya smiled as she began to stumble over her words. It would have appeared that his explanation took her by surprise. Looking at her face, she seemed very familiar to someone. He stepped up and gave her a friendly hug. "Hiya! Nice to meet you Kuraime Shihouin! Im Hitsugaya Toshiro. Say... I think I've seen you somewhere before... would you happen to know?"

Kurai stared at Hitsugaya, completely nonplussed. Had he just hugged her? What was going on? Perhaps she just wasn't used to people being so...nice. It threw her thoughts into a jumble.
This made her scramble for an explanation to her appearance. "Well...a lot of the Shihouins look alike...You know, yellow-gold eyes, tanned skin. Stuff like that. I'm sure you've seen a relative of mine around,"
It still made her uneasy to reveal herself as Yoruichi's younger sister. After all, the no one had ever known Yoruichi to have any siblings. Her story was disturbing, and a bit hard to swallow.

Hitsugaya noticed that Kurai was staring at him in an uneasy manner. I made him feel nervous for a second but as soon as she began answering his question, the uneasiness went away. Her answer wasn't the one he was looking for in the first place. He placed his hand on his chin and looked up at the ceiling. "Hmmmm, nope...I don't think so..." He racked his memory trying to find the place he recognized her before. His face lit up with a enlightened expression. "WAIT! You went to that one place... the other day! YES!" He said with a satisfied look on his face not realizing he was completely off, neither making sense. "By the way, I saw that you were staring at me awkwardly after I hugged you, you're not much of a hugger are you?"

When Hitsugaya mentioned her staring, Kurai dropped her eyes and focused her sightless eyes on a knot in the wood near his foot. She knew from experience that her eyes were just as unnerving as her carbon-copy appearance. They were the characteristic yellow-gold of the Shihouins, but they were frosted, clouded. She was blind.
She tried to follow the rest of his reply, but it made little sense. She decided to respond to his question, rather than ask after the strange jumble he'd just spouted. "Right..yeah. It's not something that happens often. Hugging, that is,"

Hitsugaya realized she dropped his gaze as soon as he mentioned her staring, not realizing at all that she was blind. He hoped that he didn't offend her in any way. Shocked at her answer about hugging, he gave her a warm smile. "Haha then get used to it! I'll be comming at you with more!" He said enthusiastically giving her another hug. He looked at her face for a moment, "Wow...you have really pretty eyes Kurai."

Kurai blushed mightily at the second hug and subsequent compliment, though she couldn't help but chuckle at Hitsugaya's enthusiastic nature. "Um...thanks, I guess,"
Why he would choose to compliment her eyes of all features was a mystery to her. She'd never seen her reflection, but she imagined the muted gold wasn't particularly attractive.
"So...Hitsugaya Toshiro..." She pursued a not-so-sublte topic change. "Not related to the Captain Hitsugaya?"
To be fair, she was curious on this count. Her particular "vision" allowed her to see through vibrations. Due to specially-refined senses, she could even detect a person's appearance. Hitsugaya's image certainly fit the discription of the Captain.

Hitsugaya smiled as she began to blush at his compliments and hugs. He laughed at her question about Hitsugaya. "You mean grandpa? Haha, a lot of people say I look like him, but that old grump has one crazy temper. My father named me after him because I possess a LOT of his characteristics. Though im taller than him though hahaha, but he packs a mighty punch."
He continued to look at her eyes and realized that they were clouded on the inside of the pupil. Shes blind! Hitsugaya began to scratch his head out of his stupidity and laughed. He always laughed when he was nervous.

Kurai laughed with him, though more towards the way his aura was acting, rather than his attempt at humor. His particular energy, appearing to her as an icy-blue swirl, fluctuated in such a fashion that it belied his anxiety. She wondered why he was nervous.
"You've got quite a famous grandfather, then," Kurai summed up with a smile, trying to spare Hitsugaya's nerves.

Hitsugaya began to feel more comforted around her. He noticed she had an amazing smile as well, though he still couldn't help but wonder he still knew her from somewhere else. He made a serious face, "Word of advice, DO NOT make fun of his height." His face changed back to a normal, "Unless you can run pretty fast hahaha."

Kurai laughed. "That goes without saying. Who'd be suicidal enough to go up against that?"
She was relieved to feel his aura calming down. She was trying to be as civil as possible, trying to help Hitsugaya feel at ease where he clearly was not. Truthfully, she had not had much human interaction. Besides Kazi and the other Shihouins, she had barely spoken to anyone. And, of course, her past had allowed no such contact.

Hitsugaya enlarged his chest out and held his chin high. "Those who speak from experience. Though it's not recommended." Hitsugaya pulled out a pocket watch and realized that he was late for his studies. He glanced back at Kurai; though it pained him so, he had to go. "Oye! Kurai, Im late for my studies so may we continue this conversation later?" Before waiting for and anwer he hugged her one last time and took off out the door yelling behind him, " I'll meet you here again! Then we can go do an...ACTIVITY!" His voice echoed off by the distance.
