"Oh HO! So you remember me!" The black...thing chuckles slightly before unfolding a large fan emblazened with his likeness. "I was sure that your memory would be damaged when the transfer fouled up." You face fault at his non-chalance answer. "Sh-Shinigami-sama...w-what's going on here?!"

"Ho ho ho, it's quite simple Maka-chan, I pulled our freind John here because of that sword there." Shinigami-sama points to the plain brown katana sinched in your belt. Soul-chan scratched her head slightly in confusion. "Why would you pull Johnny 200 years into the future for a sword?" The white suited man next to Shinigami-sama coughs slightly.

"If may? What Shinigami-sama means is, John-san is needed for the fact that he can interact with the legendary Zanpakuto's." he looks towards you. "John-san, would you be so kind as to hand that sword to Maka-chan here?" You leer at him for a moment. "...fine, what do I have to lose here?"

The girls squeek in fright as Makas' hand passes right through the handle. "As you have seen, John-san is the ONLY being born since the Winter War that can interact with the lost soul cutter weapons."

As you and your new freinds walk to your new home, Maka tugs on your sleve gently and whispers softly. "Ar-Are you...ok John?" You turn to the little group and spy looks of concern and worry. "I'll be fine, it'll take some getting used to though." Bliar hops onto your shoulder and starts to gently nuzzle your cheek. "Blair likes it better when your happy John-kun!"

You have to chuckle softly at the little kittens exeuberance. "Thanks girls, I'm glad your here for me." Soul takes a dramatic stance. "Dont worry about all that stuff Shinigami-sama told you Johnny, with US here gathering the soul cutters will be a cake walk!"

"Soul-chan's right Johnny-kun, but I'm still abit concerned with the whole 'placating' the spirit's of the swords." She cocks her head in confusion slightly. Soul-chan huffs slightly. "Knowing how pervy Shinigami-sama is, it has to be something involving sex..."

The girls have the decency to blush as you just grone slightly. "Somehow I think you might be right Soul-chan." After a quick tour of the apartment you seem to be shareing with Soul, Maka, and Blair, aling with a light meal, you finaly climb into bed. "All this because of a sword...." You pick up the katana from your nightstand and hold it out in front of you.

"Can you hear me? Can you understand me? Am I insane for talking to a sword I found in the alley?" As you are about to set the sword back down and go to sleep, a light and lyrical giggleing fills the room. "No, you arent insane." You sit up in alarm. "Who's there?!" More giggleing occurs before a cloud of grey dust starts to swirl around you.

"My name's Haineko, are you my new wielder?" You gulp slightly as the dust cloud seems to be sloidifing. "Um...I guess so..." More giggleing soon follows as you are treated to the sight of....something appearing before you.
