Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach i just love the show.
Chapter 4
As we arrive in the seirietei we can hear the sound of dozens of zanpakuto being drawn, as well as some shinigami calling their zanpakuto into shikai form. I allow my eyes to flicker over everyone in order to assess their combat abilities. From what i can see there are several skilled fighters among them.
I look at Ichigo and ask him" Why are they so hostile towards us when Byakuya already allowed us to come here. We have no intention of harming anyone."
"I know and i think Byakuya knows, but they don't know. They may think that you're here to be interrogated about what you knew about Aizen, and what his plans were."
"I guess you're right but i don't like the fact that they are threatening my subordinates."
"I know. Come on i'll take you to go see Yama-jii that way they can stop pointing their zanpakuto at you guys."
I nod and follow Ichigo. While we go to see this Yama-jii person i memorize the route. I don't like being lost, and not know where i'm going so i do things like this all the time when i go to new places. I look around and notice that we are being followed by someone. While i know that they are just trying to protect themselves it is kind of annoying. I just sigh and keep walking until a small woman in a white haori appears in front of us.
"Kurosaki Ichigo what are you doing with the Vasto Lordes?" Says the woman.
"Soi-Fon i'm taking them to go see Yama-jii."
"While they all still have their zanpakuto?"
Ichigo glances back at us then looks at Soi-Fon again shrugging. Her jaw clenches and i see her hands tighten into fists. Upon seeing this i try to hold back a laugh. She notices me trying not to laugh and is suddenly standing in front of me. I can see anger in her eyes, and she must see something in my eyes that makes her hesitant to say or do anything to me. She takes one last look at us before she disappears to where ever she is stalking us from.
Ichigo just shakes his head and motions for us to start following him again. While we are walking we run into some other shinigami that look like they are seeing at ghosts. I notice that everyone we come across is only scared. Not angry. Just scared. I am confused by their reactions so i ask Ichigo.
"They're probably just scared that you'll kill them."
I nod at this new information. Trying to figure out how i can make them less afraid of me. I come up blank so i just stop trying. I look up and see that we are in front of a large building. As we get closer to the building the shinigami that are around us tense. I sigh again still trying to figure out how to show them that i am not a threat.
As we enter the building i see that there aren't that many shinigami around. We walk some more until we come to a large set of double doors. As the doors are opening i can see an old man sitting in a large wooden chair. As the old man looks up and opens his eyes, i can see that he is a very skilled fighter.
"Kurosaki Ichigo what is the meaning of this?" The old man's voice booms around the room.
"Calm down Yama-jii. This is my friend Ryna, and her subordinates."
"Why have you brought them here?"
"I was hoping you would forgive them and allow them to stay here in soul society."
"Why would i forgive them and allow them to stay here, when until recently they were allied to Aizen. Even if they say they are loyal to the soul society that could very well be a lie. So what evidence do you have that shows that they will not try to kill anyone here?"
"My evidence is the fact that Ryna didn't try to kill Byakuya, Soi-Fon, or any of the other shinigami that were threatening her. I know her, and i know that it takes a lot of willpower for her not to react to being threatened."
"Very well i will allow them to stay, but only after she completes a test with Soi-Fon."
Ichigo glances at me and i turns back to Yama-jii and asks "What kind of test?"
"Since you say that she has willpower we will test exactly how much she has and what she can withstand. If she passes they can stay if she fails they will be killed."
Ichigo nods and turns to me. I give him a smile and turn to look at Soi-Fon. She smirks and walks towards me. As she walks towards me i observe her. Immediately i can tell that she thinks i'm going to fail. I sigh. Now i have absolutely no choice but to win. I hate when people underestimate me, and i make it a habit to prove them wrong each and every time.
"Lets start the test with: why did you join Aizen's army?"
And the second she starts talking i know that it will take every last drop of self control that i have acquired over the years to not react and to not kill her. Let the "fun" begin.
So what do you guys think? Please comment (good and bad). Still taking requests for pairings.
Probably won't update until Friday, but i think i'm going to put two chapters up. Thanks for reading. =)
