The camera clicked on, showing Akon at the computer screen. The man spoke up. "Thank you for coming out here, even though you still aren't feeling well, Matsumoto-san. I told you I had something important for your video."

"What is it though?" Rangiku asked.

"You'll need to turn off the camera, so that I can add what I have to the tape," the man smiled, holding his hand out for the camera. Matsumoto clicked it off

The old video fed through the screen. Up on the screen popped a very familiar face, that of Kusaka Sojiro. The young man had a nice smile on his face, unlike what Rangiku remembered during the incident way back when. He was adjusting the camera. He then glanced off to the side. "Come on Toshiro... we're supposed to be seeing if we can't find a way to incorporate this into our classes, remember. The teachers asked, because you're such a genius."

"No... I'm not..." Toshiro's voice came from off screen.

"Sure... the youngest ever to enter the academy, and someone who has the highest grades in the school? A LOT of people know who you are. When you get older, either I am going to be jealous of all the girlfriends you have, or your going to have to have me chase all of them away," the older boy laughed and teased.

"Yeah right... who would want someone who looks like a freak like me?" the small boy stated, still not coming onto the screen.

At that, Sojiro's eyes narrowed, and he frowned, much more like the looks Matsumoto knew him for. He suddenly went partially off screen, then pulled the small boy onto the screen, his face changing back to the mirthful academy day Sojiro. His smile was huge, and he began to play in Toshiro's hair. "I know of MANY girls who've said they would like to play with your hair. They don't think it is freaky."

"You're just making that up, to try and make me feel better," two teal eyes suddenly darted to the camera, and his face turned red. "You're catching THAT on camera!"

The small taicho made to bolt, only to have the back of his school uniform grabbed, and held onto. Kusaka closed his eyes. "Isn't there anything that you like about yourself."

This caused the small boy to stop in his struggles, to pause and think. "I am glad that I am able to be your friend. You have so many people who like you, yet you decided to be friends with me, despite being as popular as you are."

"Come on Toshiro..." the other boy stated, only to have Hitsugaya break free. There was the sound of Toshiro sticking his tongue out from the side, which caused Sojiro to laugh. However, after a few minutes, a sad look passed over his face. "I keep forgetting, you don't know about your fan club at school, and the people that admire you a lot."

The young man then turned, and switched off the camera.

Matsumoto's camera clicked on again. "Arrigotto! That was amazing! I didn't think it existed!"

Akon smirked. "It took me awhile, as you can see, but it was one of those things the forty-six didn't know about."

"Hey... you wouldn't happen to be able to edit my video?" Rangiku asked, in a hopeful tone. However, there was a large amount of yelling.

"Sorry... my taicho wants me to get back to work. He'll be pissed if I edit the video for you," Akon stated. "He doesn't know I did this."

The female let out a sigh, and clicked off the camera.
