Ch. 2
Just Plan Nuts
After that day in the hospital Isane was as timid as a mouse and twice as suspicious of that oaf Ikakku, no knowing what he would do…or worse, SAY!
She was walking in the court yard of the fourth squad and thankfully she was off duty, Unohana had other plans in store for the twelve squad captain and Isane wanted to stay as far away from that as possible, plus Unohana could take care of herself…
Isane suddenly sat against a far east wall and groaned into a meat bun she had packed for lunch imagining what Ikakku could be blabbing now "Hey guys! Guess what I saw? Lieutenant Isane and the captain, yeah, totally getting friendly in his private hospital room!" Isane nearly choked and she rose one feathery eyebrow to the suddenly clouded sky "if he says ANYTHING…I'll bribe Captain Kurotuchi to turn him into to a science project, Stupid skin head!" (Obviously, they don't get along too well)
She got up and was leisurely licking the last of the bun from her fingers when she suddenly stopped, frozen as a miasma of spirit power slammed into her …for a minute she couldn't breath or even move but as she forced herself to come to her senses she slowly recognized that huge spirit force…Captain Kenpachi was IN the house!
(Or he's out of it…(makes the universal sign for loony) She started walking, her hand on her sword just in case…she didn't feel any other spirit force besides his but she just wanted to make sure he wasn't in danger…she found herself thinking of him as a child… "Yes, a really BIG scary child…" she suddenly stopped when she heard roaring and someone scream from the other side of the wall! And then suddenly she remembered something else about Kenpachi… "He was a big kid with a murder streak!"
It was a last resort! she winced as she poured her demon magic into her legs and started running full speed, getting enough ground to leap on to the roof top of the fourth section and looking for the murderous captain, as she got closer she felt in that spirit force pure bloodlust…she rolled her eyes. "This has GOT to be worse than dealing with Captain Unohana!" she cried as she leapt to the ground on the other side and turning the corner skidded to a halt, only to meet a very strange scene. Blood splattered sickeningly to the ground a few feet from where she now stood, wary eyed and weapon drawn…Captain Kenpachi turned, his face a mask of fury, with a slight blush…bells rang as the wind tousled his hair, someone choked…Isane sighed " Um…Captain…please don't kill him…that would make quite a mess." Kenpachi raised an eyebrow and turning around dropped the struggling man (who thankfully she didn't recognize).
She watched the man slowly get up and keeping no shred of dignity to him wiped the blood from his mouth and with not even a last look ran as fast as his little legs could take him in fright. A minute passed, possibly two before Zaraki turned around first looking at her drawn blade and then covering his eye patched right eye with one large hand "going to try and kill me?" he grinned, fangs and all…it made him scarier, she sheathed her sword " I-I apologize, I thought there was…danger." She cursed her voice for its betrayal. Zaraki stood there and blinked at the girl…she wasn't the best looking thing in soul society but…neither was he, she had been kind to him and even now stood her ground against his spirit force… "Ah shit..." he let low on the spirit force and let the spirit force monster over his eye devour most of it, letting Isane visibly become calmer.
"So…what was going on…if I may ask Captain Kenpachi?" she smoothed back her hair and tried to look calm…she needed to know. He wasn't sure but he was starting to notice he had other feelings than hate or bloodlust, or companionship with this girl…not even his Yachiru made him feel this way…he was totally baffled…he didn't know what his face looked like…personally he hated this feeling I-it made him too clumsy.
He turned and wiped his hands on his coat then casting a look back at her he smiled, as politely as he could…which almost set her to laughing had she not been so controlled, she thought him quite reminiscent to a human pet called a bull dog, only made to smile and wear a bow of some kind. He shifted his attention to Ikakku spirit force that was meandering with Yamichka's down in his squad and then looking back at Isane who was shifting around uncomfortably in the silence spoke " Nothin much…little bastard asked for it, going around spreading lies n shit…cant stand it."
Isane turned red "that so?"
Kenpachi saw her angry for the first time and nearly lost his balance as he leapt to the rooftop above him "well…err, don't get killed"
(For all he knows, this means: "have a good day" ) and with that he started hop scotching rooftops double time just to get away from that girl named Isane who managed to send those shivers down his spine.
Something had to be done.
