Chapter 1: Searching for Chappy

Byakky! Let's play!

Lieutenant Kusajishi, my brother went to the barracks. He is not home right now.

Aww. They told me he was gone today, so that's why I came here.

Oh, well. I'll be back later!

Byakuya's not at the barracks? I wonder where he could have gone.

Perhaps they just happened to cross paths without knowing.

That's a likely case.

By the way, Lady Rukia, shouldn't you be on your way?

Right! Thanks for reminding me. I have to hurry to reserve my Chappy Soul Pager!

Hmm. Which one should I get? Hisagomaru, which do you think is better?

Hmm. The right one, perhaps. No, the left one.

What are you doing here, Hanataro?

Rukia, perfect timing! You have to help me!

Huh? What's going on?

You see, I'm trying to pick out White Day gifts for Captain Unohana and Lieutenant Kotetsu.

I'm just not sure what kind of gifts ladies like to receive.

That's a no-brainer. It's Chappy, of course!

Oh, is that how it is?

You don't know? Well, let me tell you. Chappy is the most popular character among female Soul Reapers. You can't go wrong with a Chappy themed gift.

There's a shop up ahead that plans to sell a limited edition Chappy Soul Pager.

You can pre-order them before they go on sale, so I'm actually on my way right now. Would you like to come with me?

That's good to know.

Hmm... But if that's the case, I have a feeling everyone will already have one. I'll go take a look at some other stores before I settle on it.

I'll make sure to get you a thank you gift as well.

You don't have to do that for me.

It's just a token of my appreciation for all the times you've helped me. Well, I should be going now.
