Chapter 21- Reconnaissance
*crack*
Iroha's smug look slowly gave way to confusuion and rage as a huge crack appeared in what he thought was Nicholas, the beglieghter who appeared before them minutes earlier. Iroha relaxed his stance as the 'body' of his quarry turned earth brown and fell to pieces. The look of confusion vanished as the air temperature began to soar.
"What the..., enough parlour tricks, come out and face me"
A low chuckle rang out, and Iroha looked around wildly like a rabid animal attempting to locate his prey.
"You're wasting your time you hot head its Tenteikura again." Sai muttered while bracing for any attack.
"This isn't the place for this we need to take this else where, people will soon be on the move, we can't drag innocents into this" said Shoguu in a matter of fact tone, as the sun was still low in the sky but getting ever higher.
Iroha unwillingly showed restraint on his rage for once and resealed his zanpakuto. He immediately turned and gave the wall of the castle a blow that would break normal men's fist.
A strong wind blew by the trio as Nicholas's laughter rang out once more.
"How gauche of you, like I said I just wanted to talk, however, I do believe I've seen enough. We will end here for now. Hahaha"
With that the air became still; that was only for a passing moment though as Iroha rushed at Sai picking him up by the jacket and swinging him into the wall. Shoguu looked on stunned, but before he could speak or act, Iroha looked back and the sheer force of the reshi that came from him paralysed him.
"You! Track him now! I will not be made a fool of" Iroha shouted at Sai who didn't seem to be fazed in the least.
"A bit late for that, now if you don't mind..." Sai whipped capriciously
Iroha came to his senses and put Sai down,
"We should get a move on, where next Shoguu" Iroha said with contrite as Shoguu slowly got to his feet and brushing the dirt off. Koala kun sautered back to Sai as he fixed his now ruffled feathers.
An old man looked out of an upper storey window and began to ramble on in Romanian at the men below. While none of them had a clue what he was saying they knew it wasn't anything pleasant.
"Our que to go" muttered Sai while he dished out affection for his pet, "exit stage west north west, agreed?"
"Agreed" Shoguu and Iroha said unanimously while the old man continued his agressive banter above.
The group shunpo'd away just as two armed guards turned the corner and headed for their location. Meanwhile, a short dark haired female who was observing from the shadows followed suit as she got a fix on their new location
Soul Society
I do hope Rukia san will be ok
Momo thought while she sat in her quarters preparing to leave to report in. Her thought train was suddenly interrupted when she felt a familiar reiatsu weigh down upon her.
The unknown from the real world
Her eyes opened wide, she turned grabbed her zanpakutou and left her quarters quickly. Shunpoing from rooftop to rooftop many thoughts ran through her mind, she stopped to track the moving reshi when it disappeared.
"no…I'm too close…Heart of the south, eye of the north, fingertip of the west, foot of the east, arrive with the wind and depart with the rain Bakudo no go juu hachi Kakushitsuijaku…no…
……. It can't be there…whats going on…"
She turned her eyes west to Seijotokyorin;
"not the central 46 chambers again…"
Somewhere in Romania
"I think we've gone far enough now we should be safe from the regular population" Shoguu muttered, while Sai began to play with Koala kun once more.
"Im hungry we need to hunt…" Iroha stated
"Or we could eat fruit considering I can generate it using my zanpakutou rather than expend valuable energy hunting" Shoguu cut him off.
"Before you people start your squabbling again" said an unfamiliar voice "I would like to speak with you"
"yare yare not again" Sai said without even stopping dotting over his pet "don't you people get tired"
Iroha drew his sword and began to warm up his lungs for his typical bellowing, when Shoguu cut him off,
"Come out who ever you are, you're out numbered."
A short dark haired refined looking girl came out from the shadows; she wore a white clay hair piece, a black hamaka overlaid by a white haori.
"Even if you're numbers are more numerous that means nothing to me, you children are a 1000 years to early to challenge me"
"Iro-han put your sword away and don't be rude to the young lady" chirped Sai while he observed her "besides I do believe she's right if we go up against her we will have a real fight on our hands, she doesn't have the intent to fight us though"
Iroha looked at Sai warily and put his aggression to a side and obeyed. Shoguu stepped to the front and began his line of questioning.
"Who are you and what do you want? You're obviously from soul society and you have rank, what division are you from"
Rukia looked on a gasp that he knew these things,
"you have some nerve, but you do deserve answers I suppose. In my heart I feel that you are the 'good guys'. I am Juu ni ban tai and juu san ban tai taicho Kuchiki Rukia, and the 29th head of the Kuchiki House"
