'Go. Go. Go'
Karin sat in the back of her class. She aimlessly watched the teacher write down the word 'Captains' on the large black board. Karin's attention focused back onto the respected board. She watched as the name, Kurosaki appeared and shook her head with a small smile before looking back up to the board."Isshin Kurosaki was one of the greatest captains. He then retired having a son who is now the captain of 5th. True the young Kurosaki has not been in the soul society for a year now. The head captain does not know, what happened to him, but we all pray he comes back" the teacher at the front boomed on.
Just then a male with long white hair and a white haori came walking in."Everyone stand" the teacher said. As everyone stood Karin stayed were she was. She was not going to bow to a captain.
"Karin!" The teacher yelled angrily. The girl only raised an eye brow then humphed back in her chair.
"Now if the girl does not want to stand, she does not have to. Is their a reason why you won't stand?" Karin shrugged at the captain. She had a reason not to bow but it seemed to silly, in her opinion, to voice. She respected the captain, she just didn't need to bow, she thought that bowing showed that you were scared of them. She was not.
"Karin STAND" the teacher yelled. The girl stood with her arms crossed she nodded to Captain Ukitake.
"Karin come to the board and name all these Captains…first and last names plese" Karin nodded then walked towards the board. It was a picture of all the recent captains plus her brother.
"Okay Head captain, old man ya- I mean Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto" she stuttered. Her brother had told her how Jushiro and Shunsui had called him 'Old Man Yama'. That name had stuck with her ever since.
The man then pointed to others were Karin said their names with ease. She then had to say the lieutenants and then sadly name 5 zanpakuto's of Captains and then lieutenants.
"Right can I sit back down," she hissed. The teacher nodded then carried on with the discussion.
"Okay, so Captain Ukitake as come to talk to you about your options for your squad" Karin then heard a rustle then looked behind to see a girl much older than her.
"When will Kurosaki be back" she asked. Karin bit her lip sadly then looked down.
"The day Ichigo left, he was very sad. It was during a captains meeting when he had said that he would be leaving for personal reasons. My lieutenant, Rukia Kuchiki knows of what had happened but she will not say. So I don't know. Ichigo is still young. He left high school to be a captain, though he is strong there is a few things that bring him down"
Karin tried to block out the sound. She bit her lip hard blood beginning to appear. "Out of curiosity is their anyone thinking about joining mine or Captain Hitsugaya's squad" Karin raised her hand looking down at the ground. "Karin, wonderful! Who are you wanting to work under?" Ukitake laughed happily.
"Tosh-Hitsugaya's" she said forcing his last name out of her mouth. The man then went on explaining how the whole ordeal will work. He explained that Squads 1 and 2 will be put together in the same room. Squads: 3 and 4; 5 and 6; 7 and 8; 9, 10 and 13; 11 and 12. The room was confused with the squads 9, 10 and 13, before Ukitake explained.
"Captain Hitsugaya has been in a foul mood recently, so he ordered that he was not in the same room as Captain Zaraki or Captain Kurotsuchi" Karin laughed very loudly holding her sides as she laughed.
"Right class the bell is about to go, the squad interview will be on in 3 hours and then, at night this class will be going to the world of the living" Karin shook her head then stood up and was about to leave when a hand went onto her shoulder.
"You seem like a nice girl. I'll see you in three hours or so" Karin nodded then opened her mouth to speak.
"Jushiro. How do you talk to a friend that you haven't seen in a year and dearly miss? How do you approach them when you know they will hurt, seeing you before them?" Jushiro stood shocked then shook his head.
"I have not got a clue, I've never been in that predicament before. Let's hope that how ever you miss will be happy enough to see you" he then rubbed the girls head before walking away. The girl began headed towards her room.
It was a small room that fitted her bed and a drawer. Their was no windows in the room. On Karin's bed sat a little blue rabbit that had a smile on it's face. The small blue rabbit began to hop over to Karin with a smile then said.
"Karin, it's a year the day since…" the rabbit said. Karin only nodded then looked to the blue rabbit. She had bought the rabbit in a small shop in the Rukongai District, but the pill in the rabbit made him special to her.
"It's hard to believe such a thing. How would he take it? Ichigo made me feel guilty. What would he do? We haven't seen each other since that day…Kon please come with me to the squad thing that is on. I can't meet him with out back up" Karin looked to the blue rabbit then smiled."Karin. The guy loves you. Go to sleep for a few hours" The girl nodded then closed her eyes.
Toshiro walked out of his barracks with bags under his eyes. He had been tired for a few months and had barely any sleep as he had to do all the 5h divisons paperwork. The male looked up to see Ukitake walking past with a smile on his face.
"Hey, Hitsugaya. I know a girl from the academy who wants to join your group. She's really young and has her own mind. Little warning" he laughed. Toshiro smiled.
"Oh someone wants to join, that's good" Toshiro laughed to himself then followed Ukitake to the room were he was to see the new recruits. He sat down beside Rangiku as people walked in the door.
The male had soon found some time to rest. His head lay on the table with his arms being used as a pillow. His lieutenant sat watching as one girl walked in wearing a black football strip with lines of red right down her shorts. She had a pair of worn out black converse off and a pair of black high football socks that went to her thigh. She had a blue rabbit at her side hopping. The girl had her hair up in a high pony tail while to strands of hair, framed her face.
Rangiku looked to the blue rabbit who jumped onto her large chests. "Rangiku!" He yelled hugging into her. Karin walked over slowly.
"Wanna put my name down" Rangiku shook her head sadly."Karin? Is that you. That's how we left you. That's how we left you. THAT'S HOW WE LEFT YOU!" Karin nodded watching Toshiro's sleeping form. "Shh. Don't wake him. He looks tired" Karin crouched down to look at his face. She wiped his mouth that had drool forming. She put her hands in his hair and began to stroke gently.
"Karin. Come meet our lieutenant" The said girl looked to Ukitake who had his hand on Rukia Kuchiki shoulder. The lieutenant after spotting Karin ran into her arms embracing her."Karin. Karin Kurosaki. Is that you?" Rukia said holding the girl in her arms. Her voice was soft as she was in tears at the sight of the girl "Karin. Karin. Karin" she said rocking the girl. Rukia was glad to see the girl, she had also missed her and was sad as she had died."Ichigo will be so happy" she said cheerfully.
"No, I don't want people to know I am Kurosaki" she whispered. Rangiku ran over to the girl hugging her tightly into her chest."Karin, I've put your name down, Captain will cry. I know he will. I don't want to see him cry" Jushiro looked to the girls then watched as people walked away.
"Rukia. Rukia. Remember me. It's Kon" the rabbit jumped up and down on the floor with a almost high squeaky voice. Karin grabbed the rabbit then flicked his nose."Kon, behave. Your supposed to be my support not the other way around" Rukia laughed then frowned as to why Kon was here.
"When I died I was given a few things. One was Kon's soul. I found the cheapest rabbit and put Kon into this" she lifted the rabbit. The girl felt Toshiro beginning to stir. She began to walk away quickly. She hid behind the door hearing Toshiro's voice. She laughed then walked away and back into her class's dojo.
She put Kon on the floor then took out two small blades that had three holes were she was to put her fingers into. The pinkie did not go in and neither did the thumb . They has sharp point where the bones were. Their was a small tail that could be used as a knife almost. She began to flex her arms then flipped the blade off and onto the closest target. She smiled as it hit the mark dead on, she then sighed.
She sat on the ground while Kon retrieved her blade that was lodged in the target."I can't stay the best in my class if I can never practice with someone" the girl looked up to see a boy. He nodded to her then walked closer to her. She then watched as her teacher approached her as well."Karin. You did not return the slip to go to the world of the living, follow me" Karin did as she was told. She walked past a lot of her class mates who laughed. The girl looked down watching as Kon hopped along side her.
Karin felt so lonely at this school, she was glad to be leaving soon. She would go mad if she had to stay here for 6 years and do the full course. She was so lucky that she was able to leave tomorrow and see her soul reaper friends. The teacher lead Karin into a classroom were she was to study. They knew she would leave so they directly told her that high authority was to baby sit her.
Karin rolled her eyes. The boy who was with her shook slightly. She shook her head then ran out of the classroom. Karin looked behind her to laugh then fell into someone. She lay on top of the victim. The Kurosaki looked down to see who she had tackled.
"Toshiro" she gasped. Before the said male could look up to see his attacker, he said
"That's Captain Hitsu-Karin" he said with shock on his face, a large smile spread across his face at the sight of her.
"KARIN!" the teacher yelled grabbing her arms and holding them behind her back.
"That's a captain" Karin laughed then looked at the teacher with a dark glare.
"I'm aware of it," she then looked to Toshiro who stood up dusting his trousers down.
"That was the last straw, don't think about graduation"
"Hey now, their was no harm down. Beside that happens to be a close friend of mine. Right Karin?" he said. He then looked at her attire then bit his lip.
He walked over to her shorts then looked at the white strip on the left. He ran his finger down his signature then looked to Karin.
"Please tell me I am still dreaming" Karin shook her head. She wanted to be in a dream as felt it get so much colder in the room then looked up to see energy surrounding the male.
"I'm so sorry" he whispered. "Their was 3 shinigami, where were they? You're brother, you're dad. Rukia? Why weren't they there. You were injured" he said tears falling down his cheek.
Karin stood in silence, she didn't know what to say. Her strong friend who refused to cry was now crying. She knew he would be hurt by her death, she didn't know he would have began to cry.
Karin walked over wrapping her arms around his body then leaning her head on his shoulder. The young captain put his arms around Karin holding her close into his chest.
"I've missed you so much, Karin"
The story is still beginning and it will eventually calm down, the first line Go, Go, Go will become clearer. If it helps think of what Karin is wearing.
