Dark as Night

Summary: In the Soul Society, many changes are going on with the 'Shinigami'. More precisely, the Gotei 13 are facing challenges which calls for some people to be replaced. Who is behind this trouble? Why does Ichimaru Gin have a new vice-captain?

-sigh- Sadly, I had very few ideas for this chapter. Ah well! Also, I realized later on that Gin talks in SLANG. That means that I'm using slang now. Also, the chapter is short. I'm on Writers' Block Hit List...That would make an awesome website...Huh. Anyway...On with the story!

I DO NOT OWN BLEACH. I only own Kajisasa.

Chapter 2: Secrets

"Kaji-Chan are ya' ready?" She heard a voice that woke her up. Bastard. She sat up, nodding. "Did ya' fall asleep here?" She nodded again. It wouldn't hurt to tell a half-truth. "Are we gonna go?" She nodded, standing up and bowing to him before she rubbed her eyes tiredly. She was as ready as she'd ever be. "How long will we be there, Kitsu?"

"They told me that we was gonna be here for a month. Do ya' have any issues?"

"No. I would like to suggest something, though."

"Yes, Kaji-Chan?"

"I would suggest staying in a faux body during the day."

"Why would ya' suggest that?"

"It allows us to rest during the day and gives us a better chance at being able to eat."

"I see. It might be a good idea. Let's hope yer right…" He was still smiling. It creeped her out…That was for certain. She hoped she was right as well.


"I'm late, I'm late…Ah! She's gonna kill me!" Kajisasa said under her breath as she dashed to a house with Gin following calmly. He canted his head, still smiling. "Who's gonna kill ya'?" He questioned. Kaji sighed. "I have to go to school here as well to keep undercover. You wanna come with me? Today is parent day, so you could tag along without anyone worrying about it."

"Ya' socialize with humans? That's an interesting thing. Well, I'll follow ya' fer today…" Gin replied, devious smile still on his face. Kaji stared at him momentarily. "Faux body," she reminded as she ran up the stairs to where hers would be, seemingly asleep. It was her real body, not that she'd admit it. It was ready for the day already. Running downstairs, she found that Gin was dressed as he always would be and she sighed. "I have no time to give you a makeover…We'll have to deal with that." She looked at a clock and swore vividly before running out the door with Gin following effortlessly with amusement. "Kaji-Chan, where are we goin'?"

"School," she replied, turning abruptly at a few points. She got onto the grounds as the bell rang and sighed in relief. "We have five minutes. My class is the closest to the door so I'll just drop you off so I can go on announcements."

"Oh, so I'm bein' left alone with a bunch o' school kids? Do ya' trust me that much?"

"…You know what…You are one annoying man…You're staying with me all day."

This brought his grin to a wider condition. "Ah, I see…That should be fine…O' course, stayin' wit' ya' should be just as fun…" Kaji felt as though she had just signed herself over to the devil…
