Chapter 8
Toshiro and Kusaka
"Are you The Hitsugaya Toshiro, The young genius everyone's been talking about?"ßreview
"Who're you?" he smiled and reached out to shake my hand, "kusaka soujirou" ….I took it.
~_~ 1 week later
"hey toshiro" "yo kusaka" "say, I never see you with anybody besides me, what about
your roommate?" "Don't have one" "really?, good mines annoying you think I could
move in with you?" I thought for a second, it had been rather lonely without kiba
around…why not? "sure"
~_~ 3 months later
I think I can fairly say,kusaka has managed to keep my mind well off of kiba, but I
occasionally find myself still thinking of momo. We've been pretty much equal at
everything, although im slightly better. Today we went training at our usual hid away spot
under a cliff, it's a small cave surrounded by so much brush people hardly ever notice it,
its nice place to just relax and train. "hey toshiro put down your stuff and lets spar, I think
I'm close to getting my zanpuktou." I put down my books and picked up my wooden
sword "really? Me to just a couple of months ago I nearly discovered it!" while I said this
a smile tugged at my lips, just thinking of kiba and how he was so quick to blame himself
made me want to smile, he's really just a selfless nice guy deep down. "wow, you really
are a genius, but I wont let you beat me this time" and so we charged, after about 10
minutes of sparring my hands started to feel very cold, then so did my whole body, wait a
second! I recognize this feeling! And just as I thought I was beginning to enter my inner
world once more, I don't even know if I blocked that last strike by kusaka. "TOSHIRO!"
I heard the dragon screaming as loud as I think he could "MY NAME IS!"
"HYOURINMARU" I heard my self yelling the last part, I felt its power swelling in my
hand, I reached up and the sword solidified, there it was, my zanpuktou. I regained
consciousness and realized I was on the floor, I also realized I no longer felt even the
slightest chill, hyourinmaru must keep me warm now, I stood up and looked around
"toushiro?" I looked behind me to see kusaka standing up, he was holding a eerily
familiar zanpuktou in his hand… "kuasaka…why?" when suddenly the room changed
and we were surround by a projection of central 46... " the decision of the central 46
chamber is done." I turned to look at the man speaking, "it is not permitted for one
zanpuktou to be wielded by two shinigami, therefore it has been decided that you two will
face each other in a sword fight, the winner keeping the sword." what was happening
quickly ran through my mind "you mean we have to fight to the death?" then someone
else spoke up, "proper personality" next was the woman next to him "appropriate ability"
then another man across the room "hyourinmaru is such a power, you should feel
honored" I instantly knew what I would choose, without hesitation "Then forget it!, if I
have to fight against kusaka ill abandon hyourinmaru!" kusaka looked shocked and turned
"Tos" he was cut off by central 46 "denied" "rejected" "impossible" the words were
coming from everywhere, I started to panic, if my mind was so praised why couldn't I
think? "Why aren't we allowed to have the same zanpuktou?" "because that's the law"
" a law in place since ancient times" you cannot go against it" "send one to exile" "you
cannot doubt" "we will not permit it" the room started to spin, they were all suddenly
yelling one thing "fight!" over and over they said it, then they faded out and kusaka
charged "hyourinmaru is mine!" before he attacked my instincts acted of their own accord
and I blocked it, when the twin zanpuktou clashed chunks of ice were sent everywhere.
Then when the mist cleared I saw kusaka, frozen. He broke out of the ice and in a strained
voice "hitsugaya…" that in itself hurt, he felt so pained by my betrayal he would no
longer call me by my first name…" I could only manage a whisper.. "kusaka.." that's
when the stealth force appeared suddenly. They drew their swords.. "hey!" I yelled it, as if
that would do anything. "who are you guys? What are..?" the man answered him "its been
decided that hits Gaya toshiro will be the wielder of hyourinmaru." kusaka panicked "the
fights not over yet! Hyourinmaru is mine!" "this is the decision of central 46." they then
drew their swords and attacked him, he was helpless against so many, they had to hold me
back from the fight. "Kusaka!" "why do I have to die? Why?" he was slashed once more
from his chin to his eye. There was nothing I could do. "I.. fought for soul society…" then
as hyourinmaru faded from his hand, he collapsed. Even though I knew it was pointless
part of me still wished to believe, so I yelled for the last time "kusaka!"
