Hi guys! Well I hope this chapter was worth the wait!! Disclaimer: Nope, haven't owned it yet.
Sorry I haven't updated for soooo long, school has been a pain D:
_____________________________________________________________Hitsugaya awoke, his eyes slowly opening. The place he was laying in looked somewhat familiar, that distant smell, the sparkling white walls…
He shot up in the bed, but the searing pain that flowed through his body the moment he got up made him lay down again. It was obvious, he was in the 4th squad.
He saw Ichigo, who was leaning against the door. Orihime rushed over to Hitsugaya, a big smile on her face.
"I'm so glad your okay, Toushiro-kun!" She cried, hugging herself.
"…Inuoe, why are we here?"
She gave him a sad smile. " I'm sorry Toushiro-kun…" She started "I couldn't heal that big wound, and this was our only solution…We gave in, Toushiro-kun." She said, almost in a whisper, still a faint smile on her features.
Hitsugaya's eyes widened.
"Y…You mean…"
"Ah, I'm glad your okay, Hitsugaya-san." Said someone, who walked in. It was Unohana.
"U-Unohana-taicho!" Said Hitsugaya, startled.
"Ah, don't be so uptight, Hitsugaya-san," Replied the elder, wearing her trademark smile, "It's not good for your body."
He relaxed a little, then turned around to ask her. "Unohana-taicho…What happens now…?"
"I'm not sure, Hitsugaya-san." She said in all seriousness. "But, once you get better and well enough to stand, they want to speak to you."
"H..Hai…"
After a few months, Hitsugaya was well enough to stand. He walked through the hallways, and entered the captain's room. However, he wasn't wearing his captain's robe.
He knelt down infront of the captains, and noticed there was a new captain in his place. He stole a quick glance of the new guy before looking down again.
"Hitsugaya Toushiro," started the Captain Commander. "You have been suspected of treason, am I correct?"
"Hai."
"So, will you accept the punishment I give to you?"
"…Hai."
"What if I do not give you a punishment?"
"Huh?"
All the captains turned there heads to the Captain Commander.
"After hearing Kurosaki Ichigo's side of the sotry and he told me what happened, I must say it isn't very fair. I guess the laws aren't fair."
"But Sou-taicho he-!" Blurted out Soi fon
"Soi fon. Be quiet please." Replied the Sou-taicho. "So Hitsugaya, I'm prepared to promote you back to your place as 10th squad captain. What do you say?"
Hitsugaya looked nervously at the new 10th captain, who appeared to be smiling.
"I…I'm…"
He took a deep breath. "I'm sorry Sou-taicho, I could not accept this offer. I've commited many crimes, and all I ask is forgivness."
Most of the captains stared in shock.
The Sou-taicho paused, "Very well, Hitsugaya Toushiro. I'll respect your decision."
He stood up, bowed to everyone, and left the room quietly.
Everything was silent for a moment.
"Hey Kyouraku," Said Ukitake, breaking the silence.
"Mm?"
"Do you think we'll see him again?"
Woah. Never saw THAT coming. Anyway, Review and I'll give you a cookie recipe to make your own cookies!
