It was an extremely hot day, so hot that Ichigo could see the heat waves coming out of his own body, and not only that, he could see how the heat was driving everyone crazy.
As hot sticky sweat ran down his face, his foot had started to tap unconsciously on the concrete floor of the train station.
At first he was a bit excited to go out on a vacation with his friends. However, as time kept passing by, his little joy became obscure. Soon he started to get agitated, while watching the big clock across the platform, waiting what it seemed like, an entire lifetime for the other shinigami to arrive.
So, where are we going again? He asked himself, a vain popping out.
"YAY, Aren't we all excited to go to the BEACH, I mean it's a perfect day and al!! Plus with this heat! Going to the BEACH couldn't be any more perfect!" Orihime yelled consistently bringing up the beach word while jumping in excitement and happiness, not minding at all the annoyed faces that stared at her.
"Be quiet Inoue-san, can't you see the pervert is at his limits?" Rukia whispered to Orihime in an attempt to keep her quiet, since everyone was becoming a ticking time bomb, which eventually made Orihime the main target.
"Rukia, sometimes you don't seem to understand the difference between whispering and yelling!!!" Ichigo responded with his arms crossed and still tapping the floor
"What about you Ichigo? Seems like you can't even stay out of a girls business, not even for a bathroom break! Or do you, Pervert?!" Rukia glanced back at Ichigo with a dominant look in her eyes; perhaps she had learned this from her brother.
Not a good trait, Ichigo thought to himself as he cursed in the other direction.
"I'm going home Kurosaki, this is pointless…seems like we're not going any where in this life time" Ishida turned around looking for the nearest exit…
"Wait a minute!" Ichigo grabbed him by the shoulder before his foot even hit the floor. "You're staying with us, isn't that right Inoue-san?" Ichigo said playing his lucky card.
"OH! Yes we are!! C'mon Ishida-kun it's going to be SO much FUN!!" Orihime cheered again but this time a little more over the top than usual, it seemed like the heat was getting on her head as she continued
"We're going to add a new meaning to fun… eto…Its going to be like Fun On crack!!!" She yelled putting her sweaty hand on the Quincy's other shoulder making it impossible to escape.
"You damned strawberry I'll make you pay for this!" Ishida whispered angrily to the substitute shinigami who smiled through clenched teeth.
"But ssuurreeeee the captain's late, he's a very punctual one" Renji paused for a moment; as he was putting on his typically bandana on his overheated forehead.
After complaining about his bad taste and lack of style, Rukia and Ichigo had to force Renji to change his clothes into a more "updated" version of what he was planning to wear to the beach. (Since they weren't going to be walking around in the beach with a freak show next to them) Now he wore black beach sandals, navy blue surf boarding shorts, and a white tight muscle shirt.
"I bet something happened" He resumed from his thinking
"Or somebody made it happen" Rukia looked at Renji who nodded in agreement.
"Should we… go look for them?" Chad suggested from where he was standing with his dark glowing tan, and his big body. His tall figure caught as much attention as his colorful shirts. This time he was wearing a sleeveless shirt, tie-dye, and V-neck shaped, along with a pair of knee-length shorts.
"No!!!! That bastard better come!" Ichigo said abruptly, as he kept talking a vain started to pop out of his head. "He has to come!!" it grew bigger "and when he comes!!" the vain threatened to explode "I'll make him.."
He didn't finish when a cold if not refreshing spiritual pressure appeared behind the angry substitute shinigami.
"Make what??" Hitsugaya demanded from behind him
"About time don't you think so Toshiro?" Ichigo turned around to face him "Do you have any idea how long we've been waiting for you?" He stepped forward letting his spiritual pressure roam out of control again
"Look here Kurosaki, you will refer to me as Captain Hitsugaya, NOT Toshiro and I'm not in the mood, step aside" The little captain responded letting out more cold spiritual pressure.
"Well, guess what? You'll listen to what I have to say, WE waited for what seemed hours in this hell hole just for your cold ass to arrive!" Ichigo scowled him as if he were a little kid.
"Kurosaki, move!!" Hitsugaya demanded with an emotionless expression, and about to make him a popsicle for talking to him as if he were a child.
"Why you little…" Ichigo was not able to finish his sentence when Renji interrupted.
"Ichigo I suggest you to stop if you don't what to end up looking like a popsicle stick."
"Hey that wouldn't be a bad idea Renji" Ishida paused with a little smirk. "I have always wondered how a strawberry popsicle tasted."
"Ishida are you shitting me?" Ichigo replied with a very furious voice.
"Whatever to you mean Ichigo" Ishida responded yet with a bigger smirk.
"Don't play dumb with me Quincy!?" Ichigo said giving Ishida a deadly look.
"Maybe I am, or maybe I'm not, which one would it be now?" Ishida said sarcastically.
"Why you little son of a…" Ichigo was not able to finish his sentence when another cold breeze started to circle around him.
"Ichigo if you two don't stop arguing, you both WILL truly end up looking like a popsicle stick." Hitsugaya said in very irritated voice making them stop their blabbering.
"See Ichigo that's what happens when you don't listen to me." Renji whispered to Ichigo who was standing next to him.
"Shut up Renji." Responded Ichigo feeling humiliated.
"Ah Ichigo, look what you have done! You made Captain Hitsugaya mad, this is not beautiful." Yumichika said throwing more wood to the fire.
"Why is every one looking at me as if I was the bad guy?" Ichigo snapped
"Because you are always starting fights with everyone Ichigo." Ikkaku paused "but that's ok with me I'm up to a fight anytime " Ikkaku grinned
Ichigo ignored Ikkaku's comment, forcing himself not to fight back or else he was going to prove true what Ikkaku had said.
"Look guys the train is coming." Shouted Matsumoto jumping up and down like a little girl making her best friends move along with her.
The train arrived quickly, swinging the automatic doors open and letting out a very refreshing, if not inviting, air flow towards the overheated passengers. The BLEACH gang ran towards the same door like a stampede of wild animals, everyone, except Hitsugaya. The hot weather did not affect him at all.
Before Hitsugaya stepped inside the train he gave one last look around the area, feeling as if someone was spying on them.
"Captain we're going to leave you there if you don't come inside!" Shouted a very happy Matsumoto from her seat.
"Quiet, I'm coming already!" He glanced back again feeling uneasy but let it go as soon as he stepped inside the train.
And with that, the train's door closed and it started to move, and soon they were off.
**********
True is that Captain Hitsugaya was not wrong, for indeed someone was spying on them from far way, and it was a loyal friend of a certain store merchant.
"Captain aren't you happy that we are almost at the beach? We are going to have so much fun!" Matsumoto exclaimed with a smile on her face.
But he only remained motionless, not saying anything about Matsumoto's remark.
"Captain you're no fun!!" Matsumoto sighed with a very disappointed face.
"Do I have to remain you whose idea this was?" He finally said
" I didn't want to come to this little trip of yours in the first place, so stop telling me that 'we're going to have fun' for I am sure that I will not." Hitsugaya remarked bitterly, arms crossed and looking outside the window as the trained moved.
"Okay Captain I get it, you don't have to get all grumpy about it." Matsumoto sighed once again feeling bored "I swear you're no fun sometimes"
"Matsumoto, can you do me a huge favor?" Hitsugaya said motionless from where he sat.
"Yes Captain." She looked up excited
"Be quiet, you're giving me a headache.." He looked out again
"Yes Captain, whatever you say." Matsumoto just chuckled silently at the impossible request.
Ikkaku and Yumichika just looked at Matsumoto from where they were sitting, knowing very well that the silence was not going to last long since they both knew that Matsumoto's excitement was more than the captain could comprehend.
Meanwhile in the other side of the train the rest of the Bleach gang sat quietly.
Rukia sighed in boredom while sitting next to the annoyed substitute shinigami
**********.
"Rukia you seem kinda bored… if you want we can ...change sits!" Renji blushed a bit and looked away embarrassed "I mean, it's better if you seat here, you can watch the view from the window" he said rubbing the back of his head.
"Oh, that sounds great!!" Rukia got up "Thanks Renji!!"
"Don't mention it!" Renji traded with her and now sat across her and next to Ichigo who was looking at him with an accusing look.
"What?" Renji avoided his eyes "Got somethin' in my face?"
"No, nothing I was just wondering something" Ichigo smiled again.
"Orihime how much longer till we get to the beach?" Ishida asked with a very irritated face since the train ride seemed to be taking forever.
"Let me see…I think its two more stops." Orihime replied all hyped up.
"Wow Ishida it sounds that you're desperate to get there." Ichigo said bored "And here I though you didn't want to come" He stated
"Look Ichigo, I really don't have time to listen to your stupid remarks" he accused back
"Oh I know, that's why I'll tell Orihime to entrain you instead, right Inoue-san?" He smiled
"Yes I will!! I'll tell you some jokes Ishida-kun!! C'mon!!" Orihime jumped next to the quincy who wished he could strangle the substitute shinigami for making him hear more of her annoying jokes.
**********
"LOOK you guys!!!!" Matsumoto jumped up this time, and pointed outside at the beautiful view of the beach. "Is in it gorgeous?"
"Indeed it is so beautiful; it makes me what to cry." Yumichika said getting up from his sit to admire the view with a very emotional face of joy.
"Can you two please shut up? You're making my headache worse." Hitsugaya shouted out making his spiritual pressure roam around.
"Oops sorry Captain it's just that we are so excited!" Matsumoto said while she and Yumichika sat back down looking as joyful as nothing else.
**********
"Is it just me or has it gotten a little more refreshing in here?" Chad said as he got little chills.
"That's not it Chad, probably someone got Captain Hitsugaya mad, again." Rukia remarked with a little smirk.
"Hey guys I think we are here, the train just stopped." Renji said with enthusiasm.
"YAY finally we are here come on guys lets hurry." Orihime jumped from her sit with great joy and grabbed Ishida's arm, along with her belongings, and made her way outside like a flash of lighting.
"She seems to be very hyped up, its kinda scary." Ikkaku said as he walked out looking at Ichigo "Is she always this…"
"Hyper?" Ichigo responded "Yeah you'll get used to if you haven't, c'mon everyone let's go" he motioned.
"Finally some fresh air!!" Rukia said as she passed beside Ichigo giving him another Kuchiki look before heading out "I couldn't stand being with the pervert anymore" she told to Orihime.
"I bet Byakuya would be proud of her if he saw her" Ichigo murmured to Renji as they grabbed their bags "She's just like him now" he pointed with his chin.
"Really? I don't think so…" Renji disagreed ", but it suits her perfectly" He smiled.
"Say Renji are you like..? Ichigo didn't finish his statement when Matsumoto grabbed Ichigo and ran outside just like Orihime.
"C'mon Ichigo we have to get to the beach early!" She said all happy dragging Ichigo again just like before.
"Well, here we are!!" Renji stepped out grining.
"Yeah, and I have this bad feeling" Hitsugaya said as he looked at the warm beach not so far from them "Like something is going to happen"
"What do you mean Captain?" Renji started to ask when Matsumoto yelled distracting them both.
"C'mon everyone!!!" she shouted as she ran with Orihime to the beach, each dragging something else than their bags.
