Chapter 04:
"Chiyo- where are you going?" A young looking women said as she chased the dark haired toddler. "You're not suppose to leave the house."
The child started to cry, sadden by her restraints. The women shushed her child, "What's wrong hunny. Is there something out there that you want to see?" The child sniffed and nodded, pointing over the gates to the dark sky above the woods that were near the household. "Let's go for a walk then. I don't want you being by yourself..."
Chiyo sat on the roof of a house, waiting for a hollow to appear. The dawn started to break through more as the sun rose.
The women took the childs hand and led the dark haired girl out of the gates. The child giggled, pleased that she was finally able to see what was on the other side of the gates. She saw the shinigami walking around, running in groups. "Those are Shinigami, Chiyo. They save the living humans and the spirits that wait for them." The mother explained.
The young child kept her eyes on the shinigamis as they passed by. They're black outfits, the swords they carried on their sides, the way they kept the same expression on their face unless they were talking to friends of theirs. There were some that wore white jackets over theirs, a sign of a title, next to them were shinigami with badges on their arms, showing that they were almost as elite as the ones in white jackets.
Chiyo sighed, there were no hollows around. "Oi! No skills! How about we get this party started?!" Chiyo's eyebrow twitched.
"That's not my name! And what do you mean?" Chiyo inquired of the girl standing on the balcony below her.
"This is a tablet that if you crush it, hollows will come. It's a good way to begin our challenge." Tai Lee grinned as she held up a white tablet.
"Isn't that illegal and putting the spirits in danger?!" Chiyo said as Tatsumi looked over.
"Of course it'll put them in danger, that's why we're here. We're going to protect them and stop the hollows from getting them." Tai Lee said as she put pressure on the tablet.
"No! Don't do it, Tsuwan-san!" Tatsumi said just as Tai Lee crushed the tablet. It was silent for a moment.
"Nothings happening..." Tai Lee said looking around.
"Wow- you got a dud!" Chiyo laughed at Tai Lee.
"I'll just crush another one!" Tai Lee said. She pulled another out and just as she was about to crush it, the sky darkened and a bunch of hollows appeared. It startled Tai Lee that she crushed the second tablet. "Oh no!" She yelled. "I just crushed the second tablet too! We're going to get the double amount of hollows!" She said paniced.
"WHAT?!" Chiyo and Tatsumi yelled.
"We have to make sure the spirits are all safe!" Chiyo said standing up.
"You want to go to the woods, Chiyo?" The women asked her daughter. "All right, let's go." She led the young girl into the woods as they walked around, the mother picked up her daughter, not wanting her to get hurt by the twigs on the ground. "Isn't it beautiful?" The young child nodded vigorously as she looked around.
There was a loud roar, a hollows call.
Chiyo landed in a park where some young spirits were playing on the playground. "Oh- who are you?!" One asked her.
"Please, let me send you to soul society before any harm is done to you." She said to the kids. "It will be fast and it will be painless. It is for your own good."
"Who are you?"
"My name is Yaya Chiyo, of squad nine." She said, "Now please, let me do a soul burial."
"Why?! What if we don't want to go."
"You must or else you will never get a chance to be living again." She said, pulling off her zanpakuto. "It's simple, I just stamp your forehead, and you are taken away before a hollow comes and eats you." She told them.
A hollow ran through the woods towards the women and her young daughter. Spiritual energy- their reiatsu- was strong. The hollow wanted it. He had snuck into soul society unnoticed, and now he was going to get some rich noble reiatsu. "OKA-SAN!" The young daughter screamed as she was dropped onto the ground as her mother was snatched up.
"Chiyo!" The mother yelled, "You spoke!"
"Oka-san!" Chiyo yelled again running towards the beast that had snatched her mother up. "Oka-san!"
"Run, Chiyo! Run far away!" Her mother yelled as the hollow lifted her up in the air. "I will be fine..."
"OKA-SAN!" Chiyo yelled runnig towards the beast more. She was suddenly picked up as another shinigami went and attacked the hollow. It was to late, it had already swallowed her mother who did not scream, did not yell, did not want to worry her daughter. "Oka-san!" Chiyo cried, knowing what happened.
A hollow landed behind her, and her eyes widened as she stood up straight. She could feel it's reiatsu as it roared in her ears. She could hear her own heart beating faster and faster, the memory being brought to life. She turned and faced the hollow, only for it to swipe at her and send her into one of the park trees. The spirits screamed and ran, hiding.
"OKA-SAN!"
"Show 'em the light! Hiraishin!" She yelled pulling her zanpakuto out of it's sheath. It turned into an iron rod- a lightning rod- and the skys above darkened, clouds covering them as rain started to pour heavily, and lightning started to strike down. The rod in her hands had a point, as if it still claimed to be a sword.
She walked towards the hollow and stopped feet away raising the rod into the air. "Hiraishin!" She yelled as a stike of lighting came down and hit the rod, the lighting circling the sword as electricity ran through her veins. She jumped into the air and came down on the hollow, sending it into the darkness as it died. More appeared, and more were sliced down. She put the rod back into it's sheath, the sky clearing above. She turned to the kids in the park, "Now let me hurry." She said to them as one came out.
"Send me to soul society. It is much safer there, right?"
"Deffinately." She said stamping his forehead with Soul Society marked on it. The other seven kids followed pursuit and they were all sent to soul society.
she turned and jumped over cars, and buses as she ran to the center of the town. Hollows emerged everywhere, and Chiyo kepted her zanpakuto out, cutting through them all as she made her way through to the center. "Tai Lee! Tatumi!" She yelled as she spotted them.
"Let me guess, you gave up and admit I'm the better Shinigami, no skills?" Tai Lee smirked.
"I told you that's not my name, and I'd never admit defeat! Especially to the likes of you." Chiyo shot at her. "I'm going to finish this once and for all!"
"What are you going to do?!" Tai lee yelled as Chiyo shot up in the air, hollows following her.
"Show 'em the light, Hiraishin!" She yelled calling out her zanpakuto. "Hadou 63-"
"She's not..." Tai Lee said, "She can't... that's a high level Hadou..."
"Raikouhou! Lightning Tiger Canon!" She yelled holding her zanpakuto in the air as the lighting gathered on that and in her left hand. "Merge together, and create a lightshow, Hiraishin!" She yelled as she slammed her hand onto her zanpakuto. Millions of ligtning bolts shot out of her zanpakuto and targeted the hollows surrounding them, eliminating them all.
"No way!" Tai Lee yelled. "This isn't suppose to happen!" She turned to Tatsumi, "How is she better than me!?!"
"I-" Tatsumi was cut off by the sound of metal hitting the ground behind them, as if someone dropped a huge piece of steel off an eight story building. It clanked down before simmering to a light patter. The two turned to see Chiyo decending from the sky slowly, her reiatsu surrounding her, keeping her from falling all the way to the ground. "Chiyo-san!" She yelled spotting her in the air. Tai Lee's eyes widened as she watched the girl fall. "Tai Lee! Go get her!"
"I can't! My leg is injured, and I'm low on reiatsu! I wouldn't be able to make it! You go after!" Tai Lee yelled at the small girl.
"I can't... I don't know how to stay in the air with more weight than my own." She said shyly.
"She's going to die!" Tai Lee yelled at Tatsumi.
They heard two pairs of feet hit the ground, and felt two new reiatsu's. Tai Lee and Tatsumi turned. "Hisagi-fuzentaicho! Kira-fuzentaicho!"
"What was the meaning with all the hollows!" Hisagi demanded from Tai Lee. "Is this part of a game?!"
"I...I..." She stumbled over her words.
"You could have lost a comrad out there, and not to mention all the spirits in this area. There was huge school bombing just the other day, and houndreds of students had been killed. There were a number of those spirits that have been eaten by hollows today, and then there were the numbers that are still out there, plus the ones that Chiyo sent to Soul Society in that time." Hisagi told her sternly.
"I..." She could feel tears coming to her eyes.
"Arogance doesn't hurt others, but it hurts you too. You're pride is your downfall, Tai Lee." Hisagi told her.
"B-but..." Tai Lee said but found no words. "This isn't fair!" She yelled at Hisagi. "I tired my hardest, and I barely have any reiatsu left! A hollow got my leg, and then miss little princess here had to show up and show off! She thinks she's better than everyone else just because she's of noblility and has a family and thinks she is the best. You think that my arogance is high, have you even seen hers!? Do you even realize that she's just trying to beat me, Hisagi-fuzentaicho?!"
"Enough! You will return to Soul Society and go straight to squad 4 to healed. Both of you." He commanded them.
"Come along." Kira told them as the gates opened. The two girls trudged through with Kira.
Hisagi was about to follow when he heard a hollows call. He turned to see one coming towards the gate and towards them. He pulled out his zanpakuto, and sliced through it easily while still holding onto Chiyo. She grabbed his top tightly as she heard the hollows roar. He looked down at her as he landed on the ground. "Chiyo...?"
"O...ka...san..." She said softly under her breath as she let go of Hisagi's top. He went through the gates and re-entered Soul Society.
