"Koten Zanshun I reject!" Orihime shouted as Tsubaki destroyed the gigantic hollow infront of her. Behind her a soul of a young boy no older than 5 pressed himself against the alley wall. "It's okay!" Orihime smiled "You dont have to be scared anymore he can't hurt you anymore." The child's lip stopped quivering and burst into a smile, "Tank yew lady" Orihime smiled as the child faded away. Orihime stood there for a bit daydreaming until a cold breeze brought her back to her senses "Oh! I better get back to class silly me!" She wasn't used to taking care of these things herself, most of the group didn't believe she was strong enough, Orihime herself struggled believeing she could do it, but things had changed and somewhere inside her she knew she was powerful. Orihime began to skip back towards school when she felt a familiar spirtual pressure.
Chad came running down the street towards her "Chad! what are you doing here?" Chad panted a bit recovering from his sprint "I came to see if you needed help." Orihime felt part of her stomach sink "No I-I'm okay! everything taken care of!" She plastered on her signature smile and waved off Chad "Alright." Chad deadpanned. Typical of him he wasn't a big talker. Orihime sighed and continued back to school in silence with Chad. Why can't they trust me to be strong enough? she thought to herself.
1:30 AM
Orihime rubbed her eyes she had been patrolling Karakura town about two hours ago, it had begun to be routine for her not to be able to sleep at night, and to keep her mind off things she'd walk aimlessly around the town waiting for any dangers to appear. She clutched her cardigan tighter around her body It was late August it was pretty rare for it to be this cold around this time of year, Orihimes thoughts wandered into global warming and then to robotic penguins before she knew it she was halfway across the town, she had never been this far from home at this time of night. Orihime ignored the fear and kept walking "be strong Orihime you can do it." she whispered to herself.
"Hey there princess" a grotesque voice said as Orihime felt a cold clammy hand on her shoulder Orihime couldn't see a thing she had walked into a dark alley if only she had some light. "Please do not touch me." she said straightening her back the man laughed a heavy laugh "How could I keep my hands off something so beautiful" the other hand running along her curves she gagged at the thought of what the man was capable of. Instinctively she grabbed the mans wrist and twisted it the opposite way the man yelped in pain in response "I said don't touch me!" she pushed the man back still not able to see him only his shadow. Not waiting to see if the man would give up Orihime seized her chance and began to run towards the main street, Her throat was burning every step she took felt like it took a million years,as she finally made it onto an open street she stole a glance behind her.
The figure was close behind her.
I can't use Koten Zanshun on a human I just can't! she thought tears coming to her eyes. She tried to sprint faster but her shoe dragged along the pavement causing her to trip and face plant on the ground. "Oh god oh god oh god" she whispered breathless from the chase. She scrambled on to her back and and began awkwardly crawling backwards it was if her feet wouldn't let her stand up each time she tried she fell back down again by this time the man was two steps away from her, she saw a glint of silver where the mans hand should be. Oh god he has a knife. Suddenly and icy wind cut through her body and she shuddered involuntarily "That's enough!" A familiar voice shouted from out of nowhere." Rain over the frosted heavens!" a flash of light appeared along with a block of jagged ice in between her and her attacker.
"Where the hell did this ice come from?"The man exclaimed confused Toshiro used the chain connected to the end of his zanpakto to bind the hands of the man and pulled it so it threw the man to the ground. "Don't worry Orihime you're okay" Toshiro's voice sounded far away and her body began to feel heavy "Orihime are you alright?" Her lips struggled to move as darkness overwhelmed her sight "Orihi-" Silence.
