"Nice to meet you Rukia san, Kyoko san." Maria then saw the confusing look on their faces and decided to back down somewhat. "Sorry I got a little excited and didn't explain myself properly." Maria directed herself to Kyoko "That thing I gave you was chocolate, and like I said you will like it." She paused and then remembered her guards. Oh and its not poison or dangerous. If need be we can buy some fresh so there will be no time to tamper with it.""
Maria took the map and made some markings on it. She handed the map to the guard named Kenchi. "Those are the places we are going to so you don't ask later. You may be her body guard sworn to protect her no matter what the circumstances, but you are seriously way to cautious." Maria turned to the group as a whole. "There are three places here in Karakura town that you must know where they are and when to be there. Those places are Asai, kyandee mise, and the Urahara Shouten... So if there are no more questions. Lets begin."

"Urahara Shouten should be the first stop," Rukia suggested. "He may be able to fit you into a Gigai, which may help in your experience here."
With that, Rukia began to look around and find a few people mildly looking in her direction. Still, it didn't look too terribly odd; despite that people couldn't see the three spiritual beings, Rukia of course being in her Gigai currently, there was the other human woman that was there as well.
"I would certainly suggest the beach as well," Rukia chimed in curiously. It was well known that Soul Society lacked such a setting, and Rukia had spent many times herself at the beach when she wasn't on duty. Of course, her suggestion was brought forth merely to try and lighten the woman's worries and help her to enjoy her time in Karakura Town a bit more smoothly. Rukia herself enjoyed the town so much, and yet, was rarely able to show it off. Renji really wasn't all that much for touring the city, and the others weren't all that interested. There was Rangiku, but Rukia was always a bit intimidated by the heavy-chested woman. She had far more energy than she could ever hope to produce, especially when there was some sort of sale occurring within the shopping district. Rukia had made the grave mistake of tagging along during one of those trips. It was worse than watching a Kendo training session with Captain Kenpachi.

Kyoko blinked as the women spoke. It was all all so much to digest! On the bright side, both women seemed to be enthusiastic about sight seeing in Karakura, and that made Kyoko feel slightly excited as well. She was especially looking forward to visiting the beach, having never seen the ocean before.
But there was one thing she still didn't quite understand.
"Anooo....Rukia-san," She tugged on the petite Shinigami's dress just like a curious child would do. "What's a gigai?"

>>"Anooo....Rukia-san. What's a gigai?"<<
"A Gigai is... like a really big doll," Rukia explained as she just so happened to have her trusted visual aid in hand. With a quick turn followed by a pause, Rukia faced the noble girl with ridiculously fast drawings that seemed fit for a toddler. Rukia pointed to one side of the notebook, where a bunny-shaped humanoid figure stood, smiling brightly and happily, though the shape of the lower torso made it seem as though the creature were a ghost. "Souls can't normally be seen by Humans... so, what a Gigai does..."
Rukia then flipped the page, where the same ghost-like bunny picture stood, with an arrow pointing to a more fully formed bunny human thing, with legs instead of a ghost tail thingy. Those hues of hers, however, remained ever so serious, despite the childish drawings.
"Is it allows a soul to have its own body," Rukia continued to explain, pointing from the ghost back to the doll, or body, or whatever the hell it was attempting to demonstrate. "Thus, you can be seen by and interact with Humans, and have a more proper experience here in the real world."
Rukia pulled the notebook back and nodded, as if confirming everything she had just said to be true.

"Good explanation Rukia. I like the illustrations." Maria praised the pictures with content. "Could you teach me sometime? My own drawings could never be bet.."
Maria paused and remembered the current situation. "But that is a good idea. A trip to the real world is never complete without a gigai. So lets go, its this way."
The group arrived at the shop at around 4 PM. Maria went inside and looked around. It was dark and felt eerie. Maria was unsure what was happening "Hello Anybody Home?"
