Ryukuri: I would understand if you would like to change your chief of staff . Kakashi-sama.

Kakashi: you don't have to be so polite with me. Kakashi is fine.

Ryukuri : kakashi-sama. You're very nice.

Kakashi: plus. I'm not familiar with things. I do need you. Plus, you don't know what lee-sama had planned. You don't have to feel guilty about it.

* Knock knock * " I'm coming in. " Toshiro enters the room " kakashi-sama. "

Kakashi: toshiro ! Come . Seat. Kakashi is fine.

" I got it kakashi-san. " And Toshiro seats down.

Kakashi; you don't mind me calling you toshiro right?

Toshiro: no.

Kakashi laughed " Scared I'll pressurise you into being nice to Niko because I'm her nii-san ? "

Toshiro ; maybe I should transfer to another Enma.

Kakashi laughed a little " so serious. I wonder why both of you are together. She's so playful. "

Toshiro : that's what I like about her.

Kakashi: oh. How is Yuki ?

Toshiro: she's as usual. Being a baby.

Urahara: I'm here looking for hiumura-chan.

Rikuo: Mika ! Kisuke-san is here looking for you.

Urahara: how is she ?

Rikuo : she's fine after taking the cure.

Mika came out " kisuke-san. Why are you here ? " Urahara took out a box " here. " Mika takes the box " what is this ? "

Urahara: a pill that allows you to not see any spirits.

Mika : it's ok. I'm fine like that. I've started to like this me.

Urahara: then... Take it anyway. Maybe pass it to that friend, Asari of yours. Niko paid for it, I just came to deliver.

Mika : Niko...

Urahara: she feels bad for putting you through all of that.

Mika : but it wasn't all of her fault.

Urahara : there's a bit of my part too.

Mika : yea.... I realised I'm not part shinigami anymore. That demon, was your friend.

Urahara: yup.

Mika cleans the grave of three " arigatou for coming with me." Rikuo helps her to wipe the grave clean " no need. I'll treat it as, you're bringing me to meet your parents. " Mika blushes " I guess... "

Mika : well, even though she's my stepmother, she raised me since I was a baby. She's the one I knew as my mummy. As for my real mother, I never really knew her.

Rikuo reads Mika's biological's mother's grave.

Hiumura Taneki's Beloved Wife

Rikuo ; how come there's no name? Just a title ?

Mika : I asked my dad, that too. He said, she requested it.

Night approaches...

Niko : uhno. Rikuo

Rikuo: Niko. What brings you here ?

Niko : I've got a demon. She wants to stay in your parade. You just have to nod your head.

Rikuo ; who ?

Yusana enters the household " me. Is it ok ? I don't have a place to stay. And Niko says I have to stay with someone.

Niko: It's annoying enough to keep track of demons who are good or not.

Rikuo : I got it.

Niko : great. I'm going home now.

Mika : Niko !

Niko stops on her steps but didn't turn around " Mika. Yea ? "

Mika: what ? Scared to look at me ?

Niko turns around " who says ?! "

Mika ; you didn't put me through anything. Reversely, you tried your best to protect me. Unlike you, so feely.

Niko : oh shut up.

Mika: it's not your fault that I got poisoned.

Niko : I expected they would have taken something for leverage. But I didn't expect Lee-sama would try poison and so lethal. Gomen.

Mika : I forgive you.

" Um. I'll bring Yuki to let you see sometime . She's so cute now. " And Niko leaves.

Nurarihyon had saw everything " that Niko saying gomen and feeling guilty. That's rare. She must actually like you."

Mika: is that so ? Eh , you know her since a long time ago ? I thought she was just a shinigami for this area recently.

Nurarihyon: I've lived for very long. I guess it's chance we meet again.
