Ken stands at the top of the steps for a while thinking about what just happened. I feel awful... Well at least each of us has a better idea of how the other feels. I hope this event brings us closer together instead of causing us to drift farther apart. He turns around to see Hibiki coming up the path. It doesn't take long for Ken to recognize him given his short stature. He decides to call out to him. "So I guess you're one of the people that Elder, the big bad ancient menos hollow, said was watching over us." He was wearing shinigami garb, had a supernatural aura around him and he was constantly nearby as their teacher. He was in a class with a bunch of other spiritually empowered people. It all made sense.
