''I never saw youasa back stabber Zant-kun.. Good to know you are one'' Hana said and slowly ate some of the fruit and looked at him. ''I really appreciate the help that you want to give but as a friend, I kinda forbid you too goafter who ever tried to kill me'' she said and was serious, she didn't care about how strong he was, she knew that he had a great chance on getting killed and she simply didn't want that.

Tessai came in with a mug filled with some green liquid. ''This will help you'' he said and handed it over too Hana. Nero could regonize it as the juice Urahara had made him drink to healfaster, yet it was only for Vizords or ex-hollows like Nero himself

"Its not that I'm a backstabber." He explained to her irritably "Its that sccum like that isn't worth fighting fairly. If they are to much of a coward to fight face to face then I won't bother trying to."

He grunted when she forbade him from hunting down her attacker but nodded to show he wouldn't do so. He didn't know that the drink that Hana was given was only for Hollow hybrids since he had been told that it was a drink that accelerated healing in spiritual beings. He was sure that she would be fine after drinking that and now just wanted to go to sleep as he was kind of tired now.

"Drink that like Tessai told you." He said calmly "Its always helped me in the few times I've been hurt."

Hana took the drink and took a sip. ''oh, that tastes horrible!'' she said and looked at Zant-kun. ''Zant-kun, go to bed okay? I am save and will still be alive tomorrow so go get some rest.. Thank you for saving me'' she said and smiled at him and then closed her eyes and took the last bits of her drink and then gave it back. She ate a few more pieces of fruit and then placed the bowl on the ground next to her.

''I am sleepy too so go back to your room and take your rest..'' she said to Zant-kun and looked at him with a smile and then closed her eyes to get her own rest.

NEro only gave her a nod before leaving her room. He was only mildly tired though and decided that, instead of going to bed he would interrogate Urahara about what he knew about Hana's poison and see if he could track them down. He knew Hana had told him not to look for this person... but he honestly didn't care. Whoever had done this was going to die... and when he did he'd send their soul to Hueco Mundo.

"Urahara." He said upon finding the man laying on his side propped up by his elbow "Tell about what happened to Hana. Any clue as to who did this?"

Hana quickly fell asleep.

Urahara looked at Nero and smiled some. ''Maybe I did'' he said and sat up. ''Hana gave you a strict instruction I thought but if you didn't understand it I am pleased to help you remind that she forbade you to go after the one who did this. Be happy your friend or maybe even more than just a friend, is save and still alive'' he said and grinned. ''I bet you wouldn't have hurried for anyone else than for Hana now tell me, what does make you feel so good near her? Is it that she doesn't know about who or better say, What you are?'' he asked and got serious now. ''Cause she will find out, and she will not be pleased with it'' he then said.

Tessai entered the room. ''Nero.. I know you don't wanna know it, but you are getting too close too her, she can be very dangerous'' he said and laid his hand on Nero's shoulder. ''You are strong, very strong and probably much much stronger than her, but she comes from a.. special family you could say'' he said.

Nero narrowed his eyes. Were these two telling him what he could and could not do? If he wanted to have feelings for the Soul Reaper then he would have feelings for the Soul Reaper. He didn't give a damn about what the two of them thought and so far as he knew their wouldn't be a situation that would require him to reveal his true nature to Hana.

He figurd he would be able to get close enough to her that she wouldn't give a damn about what he was... because thats what happened in the movies. Love seemed to have the ability to transcend anything... not that he watched those kinds of movies of course... or at least not very often.

"I don't give a damn what you say." He told them in a threatening tone "And don't give me orders of any kind."

He then left the building and went to his mansion to avoid the irritating pair.

Urahara shook his head as Nero left and then went to sit guard at Hana's side, just in case something would change or happen. ''He did strike again, but forgot about the blood that runs trough your veins Hana-chan.. You will be stronger after you recovered and will find out the reason why your family was killed..'' he whispered as he watched over the girl.

THREE DAYS LATER

Hana was awake and her recovery was going fast, at this moment Ururu was helping her get some clothes because she had said she wanted to go outside, that she was getting sick of sitting inside and Urahara had thought it wouldn't hurt her. Zant-kun had been away for three days now, only dropping by too eat and then leaving before she could ask him anything or Urahara could say something too him.

She hoped he would return today, because she missed him... She knew it felt weird to miss someone that not always was very nice for you but still she had been having a great time with him and did miss him, calling him she thought was a bad idea.. But she didn't know for sure... Ururu gave Hana a navy blue polka dot dress and navy blue flats to wear. After getting dressed, Hana got some help from Tessai and walked to the veranda from the shop where she could sit on a chair or just stand if she wanted and enjoy the warmth of the sun. ''Will you be fine?'' Tessai asked. ''Yes, I'll be find..'' Hana said and took out her phone. She took Zant's number which she got from Urahara and texted him:

I don't know what happened between you and Urahara.. But I would kinda like it if you came back.... or by for a few hours... She hesitated for a second and then also wrote down I miss u. X Hana After pressing the send button, she knew there was no way back for her now.

(Updates will be sporadic as things are difficult here and I may not be able to update as often as I'd like.)

It wasn't Hana that he was avoiding. He would have happily spent time with her. However that would mean spending time near Urahara and Tessai... which he would not do. He didn't exactly hate the two... but he disliked them even more then he did before hand.

Right now he was walking down a street with a scowl on his face that was commonly found on that Kurosaki kids face. He had run into the carrot head and his midget sidekick several times over the last few days and found the two of them to be... odd. They bickered like an old married couple which he found extrememly amusing and even lived together... not that they knew he knew that. Sure she was hiding in his closet but they were still sleeping in the same room.

He was about to go get something to eat when he got Hana's text. He briefly wondered how she got his number since he didn't remember giving i to her but brushed this thought aside for now.
xI am not going near those two a-holes!x He replied xI'm not saying why as thats something you'll have to ask them yourself. Good luck getting any real answers though.x

He then thought about what he was about to pt in next before just going for it.

xI miss you too.x

[ That's okay, I am glad you are telling me it can take some time before you reply. ]

Hana read the messages and smiled some as she saw how it was. She sighed and put her phone back in her purse and walked back inside. ''Urahara.. I am going to shop some.. I'll have my phone with me'' she said and then walked out again, she took her coat and walked out without waiting for his answer of approval or disapproval. She couldn't help it but wanted to see Zant-kun again.

It wasn't long before she saw Ichigo and Rukia. ''Hey'' she said and Rukia looked up. ''Kaori-san, up already?'' she asked. ''Oh, you know me... I can't stay down for too long'' she said. ''But you nearly died'' Ichigo said. ''So? I am used to that.. Anyways, I am gonna go now, I am kinda in search for someone'' she said. ''Your boyfriend?'' Ichigo asked, kinda sarcastic. ''I don't have a boyfriend'' she said, and narrowed her eyes. ''Sorry Miss Kaori'' he said and walked away. Rukia rolled her eyes and Hana giggled some, turning her finger next to her head in little circles. Rukia nodded and then walked after Ichigo.

Hana continued her search for Zant-kun and his mansion, she only knew from it from him and the other two man. She just wanted to see her friend again, she felt lonely. Very lonely, and she didn't want to feel that anymore.
