ok, chapter four, im finally getting somewhere exciting, lets see what happens, i hope you guys like it, and don't forget to tell me if you guys see anything i should fix up

i don't own any of these characters but i do own the story (this is getting annoying)


Walking out of fourth division felt like walking out of jail, I was well and truly sick and tired of bed rest, I'd only been awake for four days but those four days ended up being four days of varying stages of hell, it was incredibly boring and since I was not allowed to do much, i would have gone crazy if it weren't for shunsui, now I understood what shunsui had said earlier.


a conversation from days before:

'your being very patient juu-chan'

I gave a confused look 'patient? Why wouldn't I be patient?'

He laughed 'usually you would argue that you are fine just to get out of here, I've helped you break out once too, you have an amazing set of puppy eyes on you'

I raised an eyebrow at him 'I seriously doubt that this place would get that bad, you make it sound like a jail'

'you frequently call it a jail while you are here' he said with a cheeky smile.

'you make it sound like im here a lot' i looked at him questioningly.

in answer to my unspoken question he answered 'you get sick easily'

'oh' i didn't remember that, maybe i was just one of those people who got sick easily, but it made me think.


shunsui brought me back to reality by waving his hand in front of me 'juuuuu, you there? i thought you wanted out a few minutes ago' he motioned to the building we had just left behind, i hadn't realized i had stopped walking when i got lost in thought.

i blinked and shook my head 'of course, lead the way' i smiled.

'i was trying' he said with a laugh 'you spaced out' he replied.

'oh, sorry about that' a blush faint on my cheek, despite having become friends with shunsui, i was still a little shy, his outgoing personality was very different to me.

he smiled 'it's fine'

i looked around, i was already lost and i hadn't left the fourth division yet 'so... where are we going...' i looked at shunsui, clueless.

'this way' he motioned a direction and started walking, though everywhere looked the same to me.

'ok' i followed him and walked by his side.

he looked at me and smiled 'so looking forward to going home?'

honestly i didn't know, i guess i was sort of excited but i was nervous too, would i even remember my home 'you could say that i guess..'

shunsui stopped and looked at me 'are you afraid juu-chan'

'no, of course not' i replied stubbornly, i looked away, a slight blush crossing my cheeks.

shunsui smiled 'alright' then he kept walking 'you coming juu'

'yeah' i walked beside him again, we were walking through a well lit path, it was about midday and the day wasn't too hot or too cold, the corridor looked like it would never end, like a maze, for a few minutes we were quiet, then i noticed an idea crossed shusui's mind, i saw it in his face, he looked at me with a smile, though there was something behind the smile.

then shunsui asked 'want to go faster?'

'faster.. what' i didn't understand what he meant, i gave him a confused look.

shunsui gave a cheeky grin and i took a step back, suspicious of him 'shunsui... what are you thin-' i got cut of as shunsui grabbed me in a tight hug and lifted me up, i gave a startled yelp and held on before shunsui kicked of the ground and we were flying. suddenly we were on a roof and shunsui put me down, i jumped back, startled.

'WHAT WAS THAT!' i asked him in a higher pitched voice then normal, i looked around and i was as lost as ever but instead of the maze i was in a second ago, all i could see was roofs. shunsui tried but couldnt hold the laugh, he stood laughing at me for a good minute, i blushed bight red and glared at him.

after he had some control, shunsui then took a breath and smiled wide 'i told you before, its shunpoe juu'

i glared at him 'i thought that was some drunken story you came up with'

'ha, i couldn't even dream up something like that' he replied with a chuckle.

having been shocked, i was shaking slightly, and now i was pissed, i turned away from him and started walking away 'whatever' then i realised 'where am i?'

shunsui appeared at my shoulder and i jumped with fright, the drunk was quiet, i glared.

'we are on the border of fourth division and 6th division, you want to be heading the other way juu' he pointed in the right direction, a smile played on his lips.

i knew i was going to get lost if i wasn't with shusui, but right now i was pissed, i just glared.

'alright, im sorry juu, ill ask next time... but you gotta admit that was funny' shunsui gave me a face, it played on my anger and it was suddenly extremely hard to be mad at him, not to mention... he was right, that was kinda funny, i eventually i couldn't resist a small smile as much as i tried not too.

'come on juu chan, lighten up, its bad for your health you know' he nudged me playfully.

i gave up, rolling my eyes, letting the smile take over 'fine... it was kinda funny... but don't ever do that again'

'alright, agreed, i was kinda hoping it might help you remember though, i guess it didn't work' he replied.

i felt like face palming 'you thought it might help to scare me out of my wits... '

'well when you put it that way, of course its not gonna work' he whined like a child.

i just looked at him, shunsui shrugged 'oh well lets go home, do you want to shunpoe or not' he asked me.

after the first experience i wasn't so sure i wanted to try it again but i thought he might actually have a good point, it might help me remember if i try, i sighed 'fine, can you show me how to shunpoe... without the surprise this time preferably'

shunsui smiled triumphantly 'sure i can juu'

i shook my head, he was like a child. i listened as shunsui attepted to teach me how to shunpoe, i think i had the general idea though after much conversation 'ok, its worth a try, so i start by... runing?'

'id suggest that, its how we were first taught at school, you ready juu?' he said with a smile.

i shrugged 'yeah, here goes nothing' i looked at shunsui unsure but tried it, i started running, and shunsui followed my lead, shunsui had said then i should try and push myself forward or something like thiat, i didnt quite understand but i tried it and found myself flying forward feeling like i knew how to shunpoe all along, i knew exactly what i was doing, i smiled and stopped, my long hair sweeping to my side, i felt triumpent, shunsui stopped beside me, mirroring my smile.

'is it a story now juu?' he asked cheekily, i replied by pushing him playfully.

'so where we going? then shunsui' i asked.

'follow me juu' he motioned then shunpoed, i followed, keeping up with him easily, i guessed that this was just the start of what i would remember.
