The Soul Trio Ch 10

The group stayed in an inn for the night. Before they went to sleep, they were sitting up trying to figure out how to get through the wall.

"Elder, do you know the whereabouts of Kukaku Shiba?" Yoroichi asked the old man.

"What?!" he said. "You cant be serious!"

"As you know, she is someone who likes to change her place of residence. I havent been able to find out where she currently lives."

"Kukaku....Shiba." the old man growled. Everyone looked at him strangely. "Are you sure? Dont tell me you're planning on going over the wall like that?!"

"Apparently thats what he's saying." Hitomi said with her arms crossed and eyes closed.

"Huh? Whats that noise?" Ichigo said. Everyone listened closely and they could hear something outside.

"It sounds like a stampede." Orihime said.

Suddenly a guy bursted through the door and fell at Ichigo's feet. "Anyone know who this guy is?" Ichigo asked as the guy stood up. Everyone heard a snorting and looked at the door to see a boar with a red bow on walk in. "Huh?!? Are you kidding?! What in the....what's a boar doing here?!"

"Well, well, well, what do you know. Thrown in by old Bonnie. There's gotta be a better way to travel." the guy said brushing himself off. Then he looked over at the elder. "Hey! Its been a long time old man."

"Ganju no! What are you doing here?!" the old man asked frantically. "I think you should go home!"

"What gives?" the guy asked. "Look I know its been a while but is that any way to greet an old friend? I mean what are your guests here going to think?" He looked around at all of them and then noticed Ichigo, Hikaru, Hitomi, and Kyouko.

"What do we have here? Would someone explain to me why there are stinkin' soul reapers here?" Ganju said angrily.

"What did you say?" Ichigo said.

"What's the matter? Your ears not workin?" Ganju said walking over to Ichigo. "What I said was would someone explain to me why there are stinkin' soul reapers here." he said while slapping Ichigo's face. They both glared at each other. Then Ganju grabbed Ichigo's face. "Well say something you sniveling dandilion." Then he flew back when Ichigo punched him.

Everybody got sweatdrops.

"Hey!!! Just what are you trying to do?!" Ganju yelled. "Are you picking a fight with me?!"

"You started it, pig straddler!! You walked in and picked on me for no reason!!" Ichigo yelled. "What kind of moron are you?!"

"Moron?!" Ganju yelled. they kept arguing with each other.

"What should we do about this? We've got to stop those two!" Orihime said.

"Eh, let 'em go." Hitomi said.

"Come on!" Uryu said. "Tell us who the guy is!"

"Are you kidding me? You really dont know who I am?" Ganju said.

"No I dont." Uryu said.

"Me either." Orihime said.

"No." Chad said.

"Same here." Hikaru said.

"I dont wanna know." Ichigo said.

"Well, let me introduce you to-"

"Ganju." Kyouko said.

"Huh?" Uryu said.

"Thats his name." she sighed.

"Oh."

"Thats right." Ganju said. "And I'm the self proclaimed deep red bullet of West Rukon. And self proclaimed, but univerally acknowledged bossman of West Rukon. And finally, the self proclaimed number one soul reaper hater of West Rukon!"

"You forgot self proclaimed fool." Ichigo said.

"Say what?" Ganju said.

"You heard me." Then Ganju tackled Ichigo and they flew outside. Everyone tried to go outside but Ganju's men stood in the way.

"Hold it right there! We wont let you get in the bossmans way." one of them said.

"But look, if you really wanna fight someone...." another said.

"We would be happy to oblige you." a third said.

"Ganju's henchmen." Uryu said.

"What do we do now?" Orihime asked.

Hitomi stepped up to the front of the group and glared, and the others could almost see a creepy bluish white glow around her. "Alright." she pulled out her sword, and the guys took a step back scared. Face it, anyone would be scared of her right now. and the two idiots fought for a few minutes. "Well come on! You said you'd fight." she smirked.

"Uh, Hitomi? Lets just wait and see what happens with Ichigo ok?" Hikaru said nervously. Hitomi rolled her eyes but put her sword away.

"Man you always spoil my fun Hikaru."

Ichigo and Ganju were fighting outside. Ganju was ranting about something then Ichigo kicked him and said "Shut up! Give it a rest why dont ya? If its a fight you want then fine."

"No Ichigo!" Hikaru said. "You shouldnt waste your energy on meaningless battles."

"Hey dont forget he started the fight!" Ichigo said. "So if you want this to stop then tell him."

Ganju pulled out his sword. "Stop this fightin Ganju!" the old man said coming out of the house. "Cant you see this man is a good soul reaper?"

"Hah! There are no good soul reapers to me!" Ganju said then he ran at Ichigo.

"Not good! How does Ichigo intend to fight without his zanpakto?" Uryu asked.

Chad threw Ichigo his Zanpakto. Him and Ganju fought then Ganju used his sand technique and Ichigo lost his sword. Ganju went to bring his sword down on Ichigo but Ichigo blocked and punched Ganju. The two continued fighting, punching and kicking each other. Ganju started running at Ichigo but then got stopped by a timer going off. "What time is it?!" he asked one of his men.

"9 o clock bossman!"

"9 o clock!?" he yelled. Then he whistled. "Lets go Bonnie!"

"Bonnie?" Ichigo said as a boar jumped over his head.

Ganju climbed on Bonnie and rode of saying "We'll finish this some other time!"

"You stupid coward!" Ichigo yelled. Then he got trampled by Ganju's men.

"Ichigo!" Hikaru, Orihime, and Kyouko yelled. Ichigo stood up.

"That was wierd..." Orihime said.

"Tell me about it." Hitomi sighed.

"I'm going to kill that guy when I find out who he is!" he yelled.


The next morning, Hikaru, Hitomi, and Kyouko were trying to get Ichigo to get up. "Lets go Ichigo!" Hikaru yelled.

"No! I'm staying here until that pinhead comes back!" he yelled. "I'm gonna finish my battle with him."

"What?! Ichigo, thats not our priority here!!" she yelled. Then she grabbed the back of his shirt and dragged him out.


The group was walking into what seemed to be country. "Are you sure we're going the right way?" Ichigo asked. "Hey! Hitomi!" She stopped and turned around and glared at him.

"I'm following the elders directions!! If you dont like it, then come do it yourself!!" she yelled. Her and Kyouko were ahead of the rest of them following the map the elder had given them.

"Dont get your panties in a wat, I was just wondering." Ichigo said. Hikaru and Kyouko sighed. Hitomi grabbed the front of his shirt angrily.

"What was that?!" she yelled.

"You heard me!" Ichigo said.

Hitomi growled and was about to punch him when Yoroichi said "Thats enough!" Everyone looked at him. "We have to find the house. Now lets go."

Hitomi let go of Ichigo and walked away.


They continued walking until they came to a house with an arm on each side of it that was holding up a sign. "What kind of weirdo lives in a house like that?!" Ichigo said.

"Oh shut up and lets go." Hikaru said. They walked up to the house.

"Halt strangers! Who dares tresspass here?" everyone heard.

"Huh?" they said. They all looked up and saw a guy on one of the hands.

"Foreigners, by the looks of it. And there are soul reapers." another guy on the other arm said. Then they both jumped down in front of the group.

"Very suspicious." the first guy said. "I, Kohonohiko..."

"And I, Shiroganohiko...." the other guy said.

"Cannot allow you passage inside this building!" they said. Ichigo grabbed his sword while Hitomi and Kyouko sighed.

"Be gone!" Kohonohiko said.

"Or advance! And be killed now for your insolense!" Shiroganohiko said.

"Crap. gate keepers." Ichigo said annoyed. "This soul society is just one annoyance after another!"

Yoroichi stepped out from behind Ichigo smiling. The two guards looked down at him and gasped.

"Master Yoroichi!" they both said.


Everyone walked down a staircase then into a hallway. They stopped in front of a door. "Please wait here while I announce your arrival." the guy said. Hikaru heard a noise from behind the door. "Uh, master, we have visitors." the guy said. "now, please enter." he said getting down on his knee.

He opened the door and Yoroichi walked in followed by the rest of them. "well, its been a long time hasnt it Yoroichi." a woman said.

"Kukaku's a..." Ichigo said.

"A woman?!" Orihime, Uryu, and Chad finished.

"You just assumed it was a man." Kyouko said.

"I need a favor." Yoroichi said.

"Thats usually the case." Kukaku said. "Is it dangerous?"

"Probably." Yoroichi said.

Kukaku smirked. "Then its a good thing I like danger."
