Jack: ...Um...
g0ldf1sh101: Well?

g0ldf1sh101: -facepalm-
Jack: -snicker-
We were supposed to take more tests today. Both Kaito and I... I had a feeling that they were already comparing us. But what had I expected? I had origionally been told that. It was silly of me to forget such a thing. So here we were, in the training grounds.
They had not yet given Kaito his Zanpakutou, which mutually suprised me. If we were going to compete, would they not want to give both of us the edge? Perhaps they want it to be fair, for some odd reason. Not that it bothered me. I knew that I would always come on top. When it came to competitions, I was suprisingly competitive.
Kaito was now destroying boulders. I wore a seemingly permanent frown on my face as I stood next to Mayuri, leaning on one leg and arms crossed. Everything was set up like it had been with me.
Kaito seemed stronger than me. Much stronger. He was easily destroying the boulders. He had a little trouble at first... But now it was easier than breathing to him. He glanced at us sometimes, and because of that I could tell...that he was very good at hiding his emotions. But why is one so sad able to be so strong? Perhaps it is opposite with him than it had been with me... His body wants to serve more than his mind.
I risked a glance at the screens once again, which I had been doing more and more. The red line was my line. His line was blue. It had long raised higher than me. What am I saying... It had always been higher. This mere thought just made me figit nervously. This was my first competition... I can't believe I already lost!
No. I haven't already lost...It's just beginning! For once, I found myself thinking along the same lines of the seemingly...demon inside of me. Yes. That's what it had to be. A demon. I let my body slide into its pattern and I smirked, fire growing in my eyes. A strange fire seemed to grow inside of me. I want to fight!
"Do you want to fight him, Jack?" Captain asked me. Immediately my smirk fell and for some reason a smile and happy face plastered itself to me. This I disagreed with. Perhaps I shouldn't have given in so easily...! I painfully realized when my body began to speak without my power.
I felt my being immediately be shoved aside by something darker. Something cruel. Something...evil. I heard a deep laughter as my being was pulled down into never-ending darkness. My hands flew to my neck, my breath being cut off.
'Nooo!' I screamed bloody murder, suddenly becoming terrified. 'I should've never given in! What was wrong with me? This isn't me!' I panicked more and more. 'What can I do?' I started pleading my body to move, but it couldn't. It felt like I had been frozen in this position. Wide eyes, mouth gasping, hands at my throat and sinking down...I was a gonner.
'Why...' I slowly realized.
'Does this have to happen...?' my vision started to darken as my body began to speak. 'This isn't...right...' and I was gone. Unconscious to perhaps never return. Floating inside of a dark place unknown... Only I could save myself. But that chance had been ripped from me.
"Of course, Captain! Doesn't it seem like it could be so much fun?" My high voice asked him. No. Not my high voice. Shocked to see that this demon could do such a thing, I started to struggle on the inside. I didn't want to lie to Captain. It wasn't right.
Captain's eyes returned to Kaito to see him destroying more boulders. "It would be interesting. But unfortunately that trial is not until later. For now, we are still in the testing stages." he told me. No. the demon.
"I guess if a specimen doesn't work than it can't really go onto the other trials can it?" the demon inside of me asked innocently. Captain's eyes momentarily flicked down to me, then to the scientist sitting at the table next to him. He was scribbling down notes.
"Correct." Captain said simply. The demon wouldn't give up. I knew that it was up to something. I just wasn't sure what.
"So do we just watch him destroy those rocks? This is pretty boring..." it pouted. I struggled more. I didn't know why... But I knew that sentance was practically dipped and frosted in danger.
"Yes. You do not have any more tests that involve your physical body today, so I brought you here with us." he explained to the demon. It's like he was purposefuly avoiding the questinos by answering them sooner.
I felt a sharp agitated anger stab into the demon that had taken over. Fearing this, I began to struggle harder. As a frown made its way onto the demon's face, I struggled as hard as I could. Over and over I tried to move until I broke free. I felt the air suddenly flow into my lungs as I took my body back.
Now in possession of my body, I collapsed onto the ground with a gigantic coughing fit. Immediately Nemu was at my side while Captain started furiously scribbling down notes. Hacking hard, I coughed up a ton of blood. This caused me to freeze, my eyes widening even further.
"What's wrong?" Nemu asked, hands on my shoulders, looking at me intensly. I heard Captain lean over and saw him offer me a hand. I practically latched onto it and pulled myself up.
"T-That wasn't me...!" I stressed, shaking hard has I started to fall over again. Luckily I landed on Captain, causing me to quickly recover. I stood with legs that shook terribly.
"What do you mean that wasn't you?" Nemu asked me. Slowly my impossibly scared and wide eyes traveled to look at her face. Tears started to drip down as I remembered the feelings of the demon. It had wanted to...kill Kaito.
I swallowed and began to pathetically hiccup. "T-The de-emon...i-it-it's try-ying to take me o-o-over!" I finally managed to get out. Nemu looked at me shocked. Her eyes flicked up to Captain's and I quickly turned around to follow her gaze.
I saw his eyes minisculey narrow at me before darting back up to her. I wasn't sure if it was on purpose of if I imagined it, but I thought I saw him minisculey shake his head 'no'. Quickly his eyes flew down to me.
"I believe that you need to rest. I can't have one of my specimen's die from a panic attack." he said as he briskly began to walk away. I tripped at first, trying to keep up with him, but soon I was starting to calm down as we wove our way through the hallways that were starting to become familiar.
Author's Note: Belted this one out pretty quickly... I can't help but feel like I mesed up in the end what with the possession :P This is also pretty short. Man, I hope this isn't too bad ^.^ I'm pretty sure that I can wright myself out of this mini corner...It's just going to take some creativity! :Y Not like I'm good at that or anything xD I'll try to update more, I've been on a lazy streak of sorts lately. Sorry if I disappointed you guys with this chapter!
A/N 2: Okay totally had to add more after I realised it was only 700+ words. Sorry if you guys thought this would come out a little sooner. It will still be out today though! (If you can't already tell that 0.o)lol
So I wrote myself outta that one :D Boo yah! Dude, I would be fricking terrified if something took me over like that ^.^ Sorry if this chapter seemed a little confusing. ^.^' But I tried my best! Sorry to Kaito for having to take a backlight this time!
