What if Hitsugaya was overly sensitive?

"Why did they let a kid become a captain?" murmured a shinigami to his companion as they passed by.

Hitsugaya twitch in annoyance at hearing such insolence from the new recruits to the Thirteen Court Guard Squads.

"I... am... not... a... kid," he growled under his breath, barely loud enough for his Lieutenant to hear.

Matsumoto simply turned her head away to hide her amused grin, not wanting to anger her Captain more.

"Who knows," replied the other, not noticing said Capitan's twitch, "but he really is short..."

'So much for avoiding that,' thought Matsumoto with a mental wince.

The young Capitan spun around angrily on the pair, his icy aura flaring around him.

"I AM NOT SHORT!!" he yelled furiously, reaching up to draw his blade.

The two men cried out in terror as they turned around to run, tripping over their own feet and landing square on their faces before finally stumbling into a run. They wouldn't have gotten very far had Matsumoto not grabbed her Captain to prevent him from making chase. It took a few minutes for her to finally get him to calm down, allowing the icy terrain that had formed around them to melt away.

"Whatever," muttered Hitsugaya, turning to walk away, "They weren't worth my time anyway!"

However, before they could even begin to continue on their way Hitsugaya noticed something strange. Bothered, he turned to his Lieutenant for an explanation.

"Why did all of the grass turn brown," he asked curiously, "It was green just a few moments ago."

"Well..." Matsumoto began, unsure of how her Captain was going to react, "It died."

Hitsugaya stared at her for a moment before finally asking, "Why?"

"Um, well you see," she explained, knowing the result wasn't going to be good, "Your ice froze it and grass can't survive such rapid climate changes... so it died."

"Y-y-you m-mean..." stuttered Hitsugaya in horror, "That I killed it?"

With that Hitsugaya burst into tears, sobbing hysterically. It took Matsumoto a few hours to get him to stop his crying and by that time he had decided that it was all those two shinigami's fault and swore his revenge, flash stepping away before Matsumoto could stop him.

'I,' thought Matsumoto warily to herself, 'am never telling the truth again...'

A(s)/N: In a perfect world I would own Bleach... Unfortunately, this world is far from perfect and so I own neither Bleach nor it's characters. On a different not, you're all still welcome to offer any funny "What If" ideas you may have. So keep reading and I hope you all REVIEW!!

My friend and I were joking around and thought it would be funny if Hitsugaya started crying because his frost killed some grass, thus leading to the idea of him being overly sensitive. Making up an actually plot to go with it was really... tricky but I guess it came out alright. Tell me what you guys think 'cause I'm not sure if I really like this one. Thanks!
