Do not own bleach


"I bought her, the bear cub is a tag-along." Yoruichi said rubbing the back of her head.

"Why would you buy her?" her Mama asked out of plain curiosity, but even then it pissed Soi off. It wasn't her choice who bought her, sadly it just happened to be this black devil.

"I have my reasons, Mama." Yoruichi stated. With a sigh her mama stood, walked over to Soi before excepting her. She ran a clawed finger along her spine causing the cheetah to shiver slightly. Then she expected the teeth, claws, fur and gender. At the last part Soi jumped away from her with a snarl.

"Well, I don't think she has any diseases. Although, she's underweight for my tastes." Yoruichi's mama stated before moving onto Luicon who was currently looking around the room. Yoruichi smacked her hand to her head, her mama used to be a vet which only made it worse when she brought any creature home-demon or not.

"They both seem to be in good shape, but still underweight." Yoruichi then smiled weakly before picking Luicon up.

"Thank you for your assessments Mama, but I think I'm gonna go." with each word she took a step up the bumpy hill. Soi felt a slight shock go through her, growling she followed the black devil up the strange hill. When they were out of ear shot of her crazy mom Yoruichi spoke.

"Sorry about that, Mama gets carried away sometimes."

"I like her, she's reminds me of my mommy... only mommy was taller and bigger." Luicon said with a hint of sadness.

"Where is your Mommy?" Yoruichi asked only to have Soi hiss. A moment later the bear cub began to cry. In shock the panther nearly dropped him. The crying was loud and sound like she was beating him with a large stick.

"Now look what you've done! Do you ever think before you open that large gap in your face?" Soi Fon yelled with her paws over her ears. Yoruichi didn't know what to do, she had a crying cub in her hands and a cringing cheetah at her feet.

"Put him down!" Soi exclaimed. She did as she was told and set Luicon down, he was still crying. The cheetah then walked up to him her ears laid flat against her head. Sitting next to Luicon before putting a paw around him. She then pulled him to her and to Yoruichi surprise and Soi Fon's relief, he stopped.

"You're good with Kids I see." Yoruichi said with a smirk.

"Maybe..." Soi Fon said looking away from the black devil, her face would be a little red if her fur could change colors.

"So...Sorry, *sniff*" Luicon whispered clutching onto Soi, his face buried deep within her chest.

"What is all this comontion?" a deep voice said from the shadows.

"Aizen..." Yoruichi muttered with a glare. "What are you doing here?" she then asked.

"Didn't your parents tell you? I'm now the General of the army." he looked at Soi Fon who in turn held Luicon in place with her paw. This man wasn't a human, that much she was sure off.

"Oh well, good for you. Now if you don't mind, go away." Yoruichi demanded pointing down the stairs. Aizen smiled which sent a chill up Soi's spine. When his footsteps dyed out only then did Yoruichimove. It was painfully obvious that she had major trust issues with that man.


The trio walked and walked till finally Yoruichi stopped at a orange door. Pushing it open Yoruichi went inside with the other two cautiously walking in.

"This is my room," Yoruichi explained, "And you will be sleeping in here with me, Soi Fon. But Luicon you'll be sleeping in the room next to mine. My very distant little cousin won't mind if I let you borrow her room." A small groan came from Soi but that only made the panther grin. The last thing on her list was to be alone with the panther.

The bear cub stared at the panther with stars in his eyes. "I get my own room? Er...what's a room? Is it like a cave?"

"Er..." Yoruichi began, "I suppose it's... My cousin doesn't visit often so it should be alright. It's the blue door next to mine." Without a moments pause the bear cub was gone.

"Also, after you've had your meal for tonight, I'm going to start teaching you how to transform and fight."

"Che, I don't think so." Soi Fon growled out, only to have Yoruichi sigh in frustration.

"You just don't get it do you?" She asked, in turn Soi Fon gave the panther a questioning look.

"If you can't transform or fight in human form, you'll just be caught again or killed. And besides," Yoruichi looked the stubborn cheetah in the eyes. "You don't really have a choice in the matter."


Soi could feel the stares from the other black devils as she lay next to Yoruichi. They sat on weird looking stumps with legs. And despite her un-trusting nature, her curiosity was getting the better of her. She wanted to know what everything was, she felt stupid not knowing.

"Dinner is served," An elderly human stated. A moment later more then twelve people came out carrying flat stones? But when one shined in the light Soi Fon knew that they couldn't be stones. The strange things were then set in front of each panther. Once the twelve people disappeared into the room they came out of, they all said in union,

"Bonapetie." clanking and scraping sounds ensued a moment afterwards. Her eyes went from each panther that she could see before they fell onto the strange rocks in front of her. Each had a good size dent in them. One held milk and the other had cut up meat, a large orange stick, and green sticks. (Carrots, green beans. Hehe)

Looking up at the black devil she glared, it could be very well poisoned. With the fork still in her mouth Yoruichi felt daggers sticking into her shoulder, turning slightly she looked down at Soi.

"Eat your food or go hungry." she whispered. A low growl came from Soi as she pushed the different colored sticks away from the meat with her paw. Before chowing down on the meat her eyes fell on Luicon who was currently slurping down a bowl of soup. He stopped briefly before grinning at Soi Fon, his face covered in soup.

Turning back to her own meal she chewed on the tasty meat. It wasn't poisened... glancing briefly up at Yoruichi she wondered why had the black devil bought her...? To get answers from the woman that would mean that she would have to open up, and trust her...

Oh lord, she thought. Well... it could be worse... I could be stuck on a wall instead of here...


It had been three months since Soi Fon arrived at the panther village (I'll give it a name...) Troyal (_). Luicon had made friends with the panther cubs and often rough-housed with them. He'd grown about half of his current size, it was almost scary how fast bear cups get. As for the turning human and learning to fight... well that wasn't going so well.


"Concentrate! Focus on your goal and you'll become a human!" Yoruichi stated in frustration. Soi Fon was making half the effort to follow orders and it was becoming a real strain. Yoruichi wanted to gain her trust but the cheetah always seemed to jump back from it. Said cheetah was sitting down her eyes closed, she was trying to focus but it was hard with Luicon running around with his new friends, laughing and tackling each other.

"I'm trying. But they aren't helping." She whispered the last part but Yoruichi caught it. Putting her index finger and thumb near her lips she made a very loud and shrill whistle. The cubs stopped what they were doing and all ran up to the tall woman.

"You called Miss. Yoru-sensei!" they all said in union. Each resembled a child with black ears and tails, save for Luicon. Yoruichi smiled like a teacher would.

"It's nearly time for lunch, why don't you all run along and get cleaned up."

"Hai!" they said in union again. Soon the garden was quite save for the water in the fountain. The panther turned to Soi Fon with a smug look on her face.

"There now you should be able to concentrate." Soi Fon rolled her eyes, Smart alec, devil. She thought before closing her eyes. "Now I want you to take in two deep breaths." Soi Fon did as told. "Ok, now picture a female human body without any features." At this Soi's eyes wanted to open just to glare at the black devil. "Don't open your eyes."

The cheetah gritted her teeth and imagined the human body. No eyes, Hair, nose or mouth, appeared on it. "I see it." She mumbled.

"Now, I want you to picture yourself in front of it. Then go towards it. And when I count to ten open your eyes."

In her mind which was a desert plain, with a forest on both ends. The faceless human body was slumped against a tree on the south and she stood on the right. Her paws cautiously moved towards it. The faceless body didn't move and now she stood in front of it. Her face was leveled with the motionless body.

"One." Sounded in her ears.

"Two."

"Three." The body twitched before gripping onto her front legs.

"Four."

"Five." With wide eyes she watched as the once motionless body began to mold onto her.

"Six."

"Seven." It didn't hurt, but her body felt like clay.

"Eight."

"Nine." She inhaled deeply and sharp. Her body felt weird.

"Ten."

The cheetahs eyes snapped open. Her vision was hazy and everything was out of focus. Had it worked? A gust of wind shivered down her spine. Her front legs clutched onto something rough yet smooth, but her legs didn't feel like legs anymore. She brought her paws-well now they looked different, like a human hands! She felt something drape over her shoulders.

"Good job." Yoruichi smiled and rubbed the cheetah's arm in congratulations. Soi Fon made to stand but ended up failing miserably. A deep laugh came from the black devil. "Now all we have to do is teach how to walk upright."

A yelp came from Soi when Yoruichi picked her up, bridal style. Yoruichi made her way to the fountain where she gently say Soi Fon down. "Have a look see." She gestured to the water with a smile.

Carefully Soi leaned over and looked into the water. A pale yet slightly tinted yellow face stared back at her. Her eyes were still slit and her teeth were still sharp. And the nails she had were sharp too. The rest looked completely different. Her hair was black with short bangs and two very long stands of hair cascading over her tiny shoulders. Her eyes then fell down onto her stomach, which was smooth. But the two mounds a little ways from her shoulders were awkward looking to her.

"What are these..?" She asked pointing to her chest. Yoruichi coughed while laughing. "Don't laugh at me!" Soi exclaimed, she attempted to stand to get away but ended up falling into the fountain, the blanket that had been keeping her warm (and covered!) was now drenched. A little bit of blood dripped out of Yoruichi nose at this sight.

"Um I... those... another time." She stuttered. Yoruichi then helped Soi out of the fountain before quickly taking her back to her room. The servents stared at the two as they pasted.

"God can't they mind their own bees wax." Yoruichi mumbled while setting Soi on the bed. The panther then went to a large wooden stump that was both tall and very wide. Soi recalled that Yoruichi had called it a dresser.

"Hold up your arms." Yoruichi ordered, a very baggy yellow and black stripped long sleeved T-shirt was in her hands. Soi Fon looked to the side but did as Yoruichi asked. The cheetah was starting to trust Yoruichi but she couldn't let go of the past. The odd shirt was put over her head and covered went down to the Soi's Knees.

"Now I'll dry your hair off. You'll catch a cold if I don't." Yoruichi then strode off to the bathroom. Weirdo... Soi Fon thought. She fell back onto the bed and crawled up to the pillow. What was a coldanyway...? She wondered. She curled up in a ball and shut her eyes. Would she return to normal once she fell asleep? Or stay in this awkward guise. She didn't know...

Her mind then fell to the land of nod.


Anyways hope you enjoyed this chappy ^^
