Kugo

Why the hell is there a motorcycle here? I mean, how are you supposed to get gas?

Tsukishima

Well, I'm pretty sure no one actually produces gasoline in the Soul Society.

And as far as I know, most of the alternative fuel goes to the Department of Research and Development in the Seireitei or to the nobles.

Kugo

So that means this bike is probably just another toy for some noble out there.

Shuhei

Actually, I worked hard to save up my earnings to buy her. But if you want to call it my toy, I guess you're not completely wrong.

Kugo

Heh. I was curious when I heard the sound of a motorcycle, since that's kinda rare in these parts, but I didn't expect I'd meet a Soul Reaper.

Shuhei

Kugo Ginjo...

Kugo

Well, that's an honor. I'm surprised someone with a lieutenant's badge actually knows my face.

Shuhei

I've heard from rumors that you managed to escape from hell, but what are you doing here?

Kugo

Woah, dude. No need to glare at me like that. We've just met. Have I ever done anything to you?

Shuhei

So you're gonna play dumb with me? You know exactly what you did to Ichigo and us Soul Reapers.

Tsukishima

............

Kugo

Don't do it, Tsukishima.

Tsukishima

Are you sure? He's got this look like he's about to pounce on us at any second.

Shuhei

Tsukishima...? You're the one who messed up Ichigo's past, aren't you?

Tsukishima

That sounds a bit worse than what really happened. I mean, I never changed anything about his past.

Oh, although, I did help him with a little maintenance on his sword the other day.

Shuhei

Huh...?

Giriko

Kugo, I have a feeling he isn't aware that you two helped Ichigo in his previous battle.

Shuhei

You helped him?

Kugo

Nah, it's not that big of a deal. I just wanted to repay a little debt I had with him.

Shuhei

Why did you betray Captain Ukitake and the Soul Reapers?

Kugo

Well, color me surprised. You, a Soul Reaper, would ask me that now?

Shuhei

I heard that Captain Ukitake had you under his surveillance using the Combat Pass. I understand that part.

But that's it. Was that really enough reason for you to turn against the entire 13 Court Guard Squads?

I'm sure you weren't amused, and I get that. But you could've just brought it up with him the moment you realized and talked it through.

Kugo

The moment I realized, huh? Heh... If only I could've.

Well, you don't look like you're trying to play the fool, so I guess it just means that you aren't kept in the know even at the lieutenant level.

Shuhei

What are you talking about?

Kugo

I'm just saying I understand now that you don't know anything at all.

Shuhei

............

*Boom!*

Ganju

Bwoh?!

Shuhei

Huh?!

Ganju

Heh... Gotta give it to you, Bonnie. That was an awesome breeze!
