The stuffed lion shook his plushy head before allowing his eyes to watch the fading figure of Rayne. Something about her intrigued him not counting the perverse views he had on the female sex. He was soon shoved back inside the depths of Ichigo's bag as the shinigami moved running swiftly to catch his class. Once he managed to get to his seat, his teacher introduced the stranger and allowed her to speak.
"My name is Rayne Nagasaki, I just got transferred here from America since my parents moved here," stated the green-eyed woman.
Surprisingly, half of the male students happened to either be drooling or day dreaming of her before she rolled her eyes and gave the finger to them behind the teacher's back. It made them calm themselves as she took her seat just behind Rukia.
As she sat down, she noticed the orange haired teen from earlier that had slammed into her.
"Ichigo, did you get enough sleep last night of what? Stop sleeping with your eyes open," Snapped Rukia firmly whacking him with the back of her hand before the teacher looked back to the class.
'So, his name is Ichigo? That's odd.' Thought Rayne to herself before getting back to writing more notes down in a notebook. Once school was dismissed she slid out of sight of the other students and moved down the sidewalks. Hopefully no one caught her but sadly Ichigo and Rukia spotted her once again. The two walked up to her and Rukia seemed more polite than the growling Ichigo.
"My name is Kuchiki Rukia." Uttered the black haired female gently.
"I figured, and you are, Ichigo, right?" asked Rayne towards the carrot top once more.
"Yeah, that's my name all right and you better start using it."
"What? Bothered by your nick name Carrot Top?"
Rukia barely managed to keep herself from snickering behind Ichigo's back while the expression on his face changed so suddenly. Rayne laughed as well openly not afraid of Ichigo in the slightest until something caught her ears. Someone or something was screaming at the top of their lungs. With that sound echoing in winds Rayne took off in a dead run summoning up her shinigami powers without much force. Her eyes flashed a bit but what changed was her clothing and she now had a blade at her side, which was a very nice blade. It had an ebony hilt but the blade itself when unsheathed was pure ivory. At the moment that's the position the weapon was in and Rayne lunged striking at the newly forming Hollow. The beast swung at her hitting her nicely at the side knocking the wind out of her a moment and causing blood to trickle from her mouth's right corner.
"Not bad, but I will get rid of you like the others!" she growled lunging again.
The Hollow swung downwards at her again sending her into a dumpster and such. She screamed out angrily and tried to stand only to see Ichigo's shinigami form and blade drawn.
"Ichigo?" she asked slowly before everything went black.
The sounds of slashing flesh and crashing bone vibrated into her mind but she was already out cold.
"Who is she Ichigo?" asked Yoruichi softly.
"Her name's Rayne and she seems to be like me, or somewhat like me only when she goes shinigami, her body doesn't seem to appear or anything, it's really weird."
Rayne heard Kisuke's sigh and slowly forced her eyes to open. They finally crept to be fully open only to make her wince from the light. She gazed above her to sandal hat and a dark skinned woman with violet cat-like styled hair. The dark one smirking cattishly and nudged Ichigo in the ribs softly urging him forward He growled at her but soon kneeled alongside Rayne's sore body.
"How are you feeling? You took a few rough hits from that Hollow."
"I'm feeling a bit shaky but I've had worse done before, Carrot." Came her sly reply.
"It's Ichigo, I-chi-go!" he snapped at her.
"Sorry, I couldn't resist saying it," She chuckled a little before grasping her lower right side in pain. "Ow, I shouldn't be laughing so hard right now."
