Chapter 2:
-At the academy-
"Alright, we're here!" Yoruichi exclaimed as she walked with two of her best friends.
Kisuke Urahara and Tessai Tsukabishi whom were wearing their blue school robes, while Yoruichi wore her red; "Yep, it's about time we started our academy years huh?" Kisuke said with a wide grin on his face.
Tessai nodded and turned towards Yoruichi with a raised brow; "Hey, I thought you said you were going to introduce us to your newest friend?" he asked looking around as if to see the person right away.
She looked at him and smirked, "Oh don't worry about that, he'll be here *looks over her shoulder* if he's not here already." she said smiling widely.
-About ten yards away-
Toshiro stood behind a tree while fixing his robes in aggravation, "I can't believe I actually agreed to this, its not like they would actually accept me into the academy in the first place, right? They would have to be really low on their quota for the year. But that would explain why these uniforms are so damn annoying! They're so uncomfortable its unbearable! Maybe I should just turn it in and forget about this." he exclaimed in a sigh, now beginning to walk away.
"Your gonna give up already?" someone asked from behind him.
He turned around to see who it was, but no one was in sight, then he looked up in the tree just behind him and sure enough...Yoruichi was perched on one of the branches. Toshiro turned away from her; "I'm sorry, I thought I could convince myself that I would be able to be normal...but I guess I'm still not over the fact that I'm so different. I just can't fit in Yoruichi, no matter how much I wish I could." he said starting to walk away again.
But he felt a hand on his shoulder and stopped, but did not turn to look at her; "When will you ever learn to forget the past and just move on?" she asked firmly and a slight hint of annoyance in her voice.
Toshiro quickly turned around to face her, and looked at her with a severe glare; "Its easy for you to say! You were never rejected everywhere and anywhere you went because they thought you were a freak! Or avoided you because they feared that you'd kill them just because you acted differently! Your the heir to the Shihoin family for crying out loud! One of the wealthiest and most powerful families in all of the Soul Society! I can't even believe that you would actually want to be seen a hundred feet from me!" he all but yelled at her and turned back around.
Yoruichi looked down with saddened eyes, "I'm sorry Toshiro...I didn't realize that..." but she stopped herself when a small smile formed on her face and she snaked her arms around his neck while resting her cheek on the back of his head.
"It's true...I don't know what that's like, but you shouldn't let that get in the way of doing what you want. I've very rarely thought about what other people think about me, and if I don't...neither should you. This is the perfect opportunity to prove that you can be just as good if not way better then any other shinigami that has ever gone to this academy and if anything...everyone that's excelled in this academy has been far from normal. And I don't care who I am or what family I'm the heir to, I like you for who you are...and besides, I think your unique features make you look irresistibly cute." Yoruichi said smiling into his white hair.
Toshiro noticeably growled and closed his eyes, 'I should have known that the second she came over here I would have been going along with whatever she said.' he thought in annoyance.
"Come on Toshiro, do this for me?" she asked with the best pout face she could muster.
He saw her in the corner of his eye and sighed as she continued her very adorably cute look. Toshiro just nodded and allowed Yoruichi to lead him towards her waiting friends. But as they walked, Toshiro decided to voice the biggest question he had been pondering since the moment he met her, "How is it that your able to make me go out of my comfort zone so easily?"
Yoruichi stopped and looked over at him with a slightly surprised look from his sudden inquiry, but it changed to a smile as she replied. "Well it could be for a few reasons actually; one would be that you are just so incredibly bored and don't have anything better to do, so you want to add some excitement in your life. Or two...*smiles deviously*...your just so infatuated with me that you just can't say 'no'."
She finished it all off with a wink which caused Toshiro to growl silently and curse himself inwardly; "I should seen that one coming." he said with much annoyance and a roll of his eyes.
She laughed at his stubbornness and wrapped her arm around his; "Oh Toshiro you know I'm kidding *smiles once more* but I have a feeling that it's the second one." she said as Toshiro's eye started twitching in aggravation.
They finally made their way to Kisuke and Tessai, both of which became fairly wide eyed the moment they saw Toshiro's appearance. Yoruichi kept her arm wrapped around his and gestured to him as she spoke; "Everyone this is Toshiro, Toshiro Hitsugaya; Toshiro this is 'everyone', the blonde is Kisuke Urahara, and the tall one is Tessai Tsukabishi, and of course I'm Yoruichi Shihoin. But you know...we should really think of a cool name to call ourselves, I've been trying to get these two to brain storm with me, but they aren't any help when thinking of cool names. But now that we have you Toshiro, I'm sure we'll think of something way better then The Kisuke Fray." she claimed rolling her eyes at Urahara.
"Oh whatever, I thought it was really clever. Anyway, hi…Toshiro Hitsugaya." Kisuke said turning to said child while attempting to hide his shock, and though not succeeding in the least, he still shook his hand.
"Ehem, yes...nice to meet you Toshiro Hitsugaya!" Tessai said following Kisuke's lead in shaking Toshiro's hand, which caused Yoruichi to smile as if she accomplished something incredibly difficult.
"Alright, now that were all acquainted, lets get a move on! After all we don't want to be late on the first day!" Yoruichi announced gripping Toshiro's arm even tighter and hurrying him into the entrance of the academy, making Kisuke and Tessai to chuckle to themselves.
Yoruichi and Toshiro practically flew past the other students and instructors, who only caught a slight glimpse of them, but it was all they needed to stop and stare at the odd two running by them. But Yoruichi never stopped for anything, she just kept on running with Toshiro, whom was attempting to keep up with her the best he could.
Then without warning, she suddenly stopped dead in her tracks, and caused Toshiro to run right into her and go tumbling down together, with Toshiro on top. Yoruichi looked almost as shocked as he did at first, but her expression changed from shock to a seductive smirk within a split second.
"Well if you really wanted to be on top...all ya had to do was ask, but I'm afraid your gonna halfta wait *flips him over* for now." she said with a wink before getting off of him and turning to the door she had stopped in front of.
Toshiro got up, brushed himself off and attempted to fix his hair while trying to hide a rising blush on his cheeks. He turned to Yoruichi, then followed her gaze to the door which read 'Class Sorting' on a small wooden plank on the top half of the door. Toshiro raised a brow in slight confusion and looked back at her; "What exactly is...'Class Sorting'?" he asked.
She looked over at him and smiled a bit, "Its were all the students go to have the instructors sort us into certain classes, judging by are level of speed, strength, kido and spirit energy." she explained as her smile became wider, but Toshiro just raised his brow higher.
"I wouldn't worry, once they get a taste of what you can do, they'll want you to be in the advanced classes faster then I got you here. I'm shooting for the advanced classes myself...hey, maybe we'll have our classes together!" she said gleefully, nudging him with her elbow and clapping her hands together at the thought.
Toshiro looked from her to the door, then back again before letting out yet another sigh, "Yeah...that would be something." he said rather sarcasticly.
Yoruichi just ignored him, grabbed his arm with her own once again, slid the door open, and dragged him through; 'I hope to whatever God is out there, that 'this' does not be a trend with her.' Toshiro thought in annoyance as he rolled his eyes.
But he didn't think any further on the issue as he looked around the 'room' they entered. It was the exact definition of 'colossal', it was a massive arena that stretched over a hundred yards long and forty to fifty yards across with mats covering all the walls and floor; "This is perfect for you! Everyone will be able to see what you can do!" Yoruichi exclaimed a little too happily.
'Everyone? Oh great, this is going to be a hell of a time.' he thought to himself as he looked around at the many staring faces.
Yoruichi took him to a long line of students that led to a fairly large stage in the center of the arena, where he could feel multiple students giving off what he thought was rather weak spirit energy. Others that were showing the instructors how well they could fight with and without swords, and even a few students that were shooting kido spells from their hands.
She then pulled him behind her as they stood patiently in line, during of which, Toshiro continued to stare everyone down that decided to look at him. Some of them were even the instructors, but he just held each of their stares until they finally gave up and looked away; 'Hmph, this might not be as bad as I-' but his thoughts were interrupted...
"Hey freak! What the hell are you doing here?" someone yelled from across the field.
Like I said...much shorter then the first. I hope everyone enjoyed the second chapter. And just to let you all know now...this will not only be a Hitsugaya and a Yoruichi pairing fic, it will more or less imply just about every couple that Hitsugaya could possibly have (with a girl that is, no guys), and a few other couples that I haven't entirely decided on yet, if anyone wants a certain pairing for Hitsugaya or whatever..let me know. Anyway, please review I'd appreciate it.
