Chapter 10: Unknown people appear?
Mitch leapt up suddenly as he sensed the huge reiatsu that just emerged and drew his zanpukto before racing outside to find Ania, Tom and their spirit beasts lying passed out on the floor. Rushing over to their side he quickly felt their pulses to see that they were alive just out cold from the sheer force of reiatsu.
"Guess they couldn't stand up to the power of my reiatsu" a cold voice spoke as Mitch spun around to see three shadowy figures on the roof. Raising his zanpukto Mitch waited for them to make the first move and attack, quick as a flash a bald headed man leapt off the building flying towards Mitch as he unsheathed his katana and went to strike a blow only for Mitch to parry the blow. "I'm impressed it seems you've improved Mitch" the man said sheathing his sword and spun around to face him.
Mitch sheathed his zanpukto and walked over to the man as they glared eye to eye before embracing each other in a huge hug "Man I'm amazed to see you here Madarame and I'm guessing behind me is Yumichika". "Right you are Mitch and I must say though your clothes are filthy and that isn't entirely beautiful at all" an arrogant and pompous voice spoke as Yumichika stepped out of the shadows, he looked like a woman at first glance wearing fake eyelashes that were red and yellow while his hair was long and blue styled in a fancy way so he looked in his opinion "beautiful".
All three of the shadowed assailants were part of Mitch's squad in Soul Society the 11th division, Yumichika was the 5th seat just one below Mitch while Madarame was the 3rd seat the one above him. Madarame stepped forward as he clasped a hand over Mitch's back "Yeah we didn't mean to knock your friends out with our power but that was mainly the captains doing". Upon hearing his name the huge towering man stepped out of the shadows as Mitch sank to one knee in salute "Captain I'm honored you would come to see me" he said as the huge man named Zaraki Kenpachi lumbered over to Mitch.
"Hey, hey stand up I never did like formalities" he spoke in a laid back sort of tone that relaxed Mitch right up as he rose and stood next to Zaraki who easily stood 1 extra foot over Mitch at 7 foot. He had black spiked hair that shot up into the sky and had bells on the end of each one; he wore an eye patch over his left eye while the robe he wore was old and tattered. At his side hung a battered looking zanpukto but looks were deceiving as the blade was anything but weak.
Ikkaku came and stood by Mitch ready to fill him in on the situation, he was slightly shorter than Mitch maybe at 5 foot 6 as his head was completely bald. He had red eyeliner underneath both his eyes and he always wore a wicked battle grin as he quickly briefed Mitch in on the situation. "Well it's like this, the captain commander sent us to gather you and those two newbie's of yours to head back to Seretii and prepare for an upcoming war that the White Lotus society will be waging against us".
"The captain wants you to be properly trained along with those two so when battle comes you can be at your peak to help us" Mitch stood dumbfounded at all of this, war in Soul Society that hadn't happened in years!
"Alright fine I'll come back with these two just me a second to brief them and then I'll meet you at the Senkai gate near Urahara's shop in 4 days time" Ikkaku nodded at this and the three members of Mitch's squad disappeared just like that off into the darkness.
Sitting down next to the inanimate bodies of Ania and Tom he sighed "This is going to be a long journey" he mumbled to himself as he gave them both a nudge trying to wake both of them up.
"Alright so let me get this straight we are journeying all the way to Japan to meet up with your buddies from your squad to head to Soul Society so we can train up and fight in a war?" Ania questioned as Mitch nodded his head as she smiled "Oh it all makes sense when you put it like that but there is one thing that does bother me, HOW ARE WE TO GET TO JAPAN IN FOUR DAYS" she roared at him.
Both Mitch and Ashura cowered back while Ania stood there panting to catch her breath "Easy calm down there Ania it's simple using quick step we can easily reach the location within 3 days max if you keep to my schedule" he said trying desperately to calm Ania down before god knows what would happen.
"Alright but what do we do about our other lives in the meantime I mean we can't just randomly disappear for a long period of time people will get suspicious" Tom asked as Mitch spun to face him while he held three weird lolly dispensers in his hand. They had the heads of a bunny rabbit on a spring as a weird ball like candy lay inside the stomach of the device.
"We can resume our daily lives with these things" Mitch said holding them up "Oh great some candy will make our lives normal are you insane" Ania said as she slapped Mitch over the head. "hey stop jumping to conclusions and let me explain them" he said rubbing his head as he popped a piece of candy out into his hand "These are called soul candy they transform your body into its soul reaper form yet places another soul inside your other body so it can resume its normal life. So with these they can attend school and do everything we normally do and no one will be the wiser that we left".
Popping the piece of candy into his mouth his shinigami form burst forth but instead of the original body dropping to the floor it stood there gazing about confused. Finally it wandered over to Ania and grabbed her hand as he dropped to one knee "Never before have I gazed into anything so beautiful such as your divine beauty oh won't thee please give me thy name so I may wonder what to call this goddess" he spoke in almost a poetic voice as Ania sighed "Well he's an extreme version of yourself but it's close enough".
Shaking him free of her hand she walked over towards Mitch in his shinigami form and took the dispenser popping a piece of candy into her mouth while she stared at her other self just standing there. Mitch's mod soul quickly ran over to mod soul Ania and began stroking her hair making more comments about her beauty and the lustrous look of her hair before she suddenly whacked him over the head and skulked off mumbling as Ania laughed "Yeah mine defiantly kept my personality no one will be able to tell the difference".
Tom was the last to take his candy as his mod soul wandered over to the other group and they all began conversing to each other while Mitch quickly laid out the plan to Tom and Ania. "Alright if we manage to leave in 3 hours we can reach the edge of Australia by night fall but only if you two stick to my movements, now we meet back here and don't be late or I'll leave without you". Everyone went their separate ways as the mod souls took the vehicles back as to avoid any suspicion.
