"What?"
"... You might want to look in the mirror." Amy said quietly. Chloe turned to the mirror and dropped the towel in shock. Pair of black cat ears flecked with silver were protruding from her hair, which had changed to a dark ash gray. Her eyes had darkened the white turning black and her usually blue irises turned a liquid silver which seemed to move and dance, through her gaping mouth she saw a set of sharp fangs. Shocked she looked over to Amy's reflection, her eyes widened.
She watched as wolf-like ears replaced the human ones the same colour as her hair which had changed from a light blond to a light blue with black tips and gold strips. Her eyes turning from the normal light blue irises to a pitch black, Amy's stared at her own reflection, she open her mouth to say something but a movement behind them stopped her.
Scared they both turned around, faster than humanly possible. Nobody was there, confused they back to the mirror. They noticed the movement again, slowly turning around they stared in disbelief. Each teenager now had a tail, Amy's was most defiantly a wolf tail, a mixture of blue with black tips and gold streaks matching her hair and ears were as Chloe's was thinner and dark black with silver flecks, matching her ears.
"wow" whispered Amy. Chloe eyes widened as she looked around at Amy's back. Two bumps were growing.
"Err. Don't be shocked but," Chloe said trying to be calm "you have wings". A set of powerful blue wings with black tips grew from Amy back. Both teenagers looked at each other
"This is soo COOL" They yelled in unison before looking round in shock. Had anybody heard them?
Both Amy and Chloe started to experiment with their new bodies. Their senses were enhanced, they could hear see and smell better than before. Sharp claws could be extracted from their hand when they wanted to, Amy found that she could hide her wing so they were not seen but could come out at any moment they same went for her ears and tail. Chloe on the other hand found it very hard hiding both her tail and ears at the same time, so she hid her tail and pulled up the her hood. When Amy had enough of Chloe trying to hide both tail and ears at the same time she demanded that they carry on and try to escape.
Walking through the deserted corridors creped both girls out, they finally got to a large double door, swinging it open slowly they dashed to the shadows across from the building. They decided that they needed to escape somehow as neither child liked being kept prisoner. Suddenly alarm bell were ringing everywhere. Their captures had realised they were gone. This was bad.
They waited until a group of about 20 shinigami ran past them then rushed in the opposite direction. They ran for what felt like hour, but it was actually only a few minutes. Dodging and changing direction every time their heighten senses felt a presence drawing near. As they got further away they both started to smile. Chloe running in front turned a corner and ran into a solid object. Both faces paled as they saw the captains of the Gotei 13, they both took up defensive stances as he captains watched them. Chloe growled aggressively as Kenpachi move forward. The hand of the head captain reached out to stop him.
Then something happened that made even Byakuya's face look shocked.
Swords appeared in each of the girl's hands, they both looked as shocked or even more so then the captains. In Amy's hand was a long thin black sword was held tightly blue lines spiralled down from the blue hilt gold lines ran across the edges, a blue ribbon attached to the hilt whipped around in the breeze. Chloe's sword was the opposite, a short blade designed for close combat, sharp ridges ran across the blade as the silver seemed too moved and dance held loosely in her hand.
The surprised girls almost dropped the swords as they realise that they had materialised out of thin air. They both looked up to the captains, Byakuya had already composed himself but many of the others were still looking stunned at the new development. Both girls were glad that they had kept their animal tributes hidden; Chloe just hopes they would not ask for her to show her face, as she still couldn't hide her ears and tail at the same time.
Silence fell and lasted for a very long time. The 1st captain eventually coughed to get everybody's attention, "Would you like to follow me, I am sure that everybody here would like an explanation." He turned and walked away expecting everybody to follow. Amy and Chloe exchanged glances, was it safe? What did they want?
Amy's sword disappeared into the air as she decided it was safe. Chloe attempted to do the same, but like with the ears and tail she couldn't make the sword disappear. A few captains looked vaguely amused at her failed attempts. Soon Amy couldn't control herself, she burst out laughing and Chloe gave her the death glare before deciding to carry the sword. She did not have a sheath for it and felt it was too dangerous to slide in her belt.
Surrounded by the 10 captains (Aizen, Gin and Tousen were gone) they walked up to the main hall. Shinigami came to watch as they were escorted by the captains, many muttered and stared with dark untrusting looks. When they finally go to the main hall the 1st captain took his seat and the rest stood before him in order.
"First, I have to welcome you to the soul society. Second I do believe an apology is in order, due to Captain Kurotsuchi you were dragged from another dimension into ours." The strange man grinned as his eyes bulged, "I also apologise for the way we have treated you in the last few days, locking you away and treating you like prisoners (we have recently got out of a war). Yet is seams you successfully get out of that." Thin lips rose at the edged as he tried to smile. "I do believe introductions are in order. I am Captain Yamamoto, 1st division of the Gotei 14" Both Amy and Chloe looked confused and exchanged quick glances. 14?
Each captain introduced themselves the only exceptions were the 3rd, 5th, 9th and 14th if there was a division that neither girl had heard of before. Amy opened her mouth to ask about the 14th just as the door behind them slammed open, Amy jumped as Chloe flinched, the sound painful to their heightened hearing.
An angry looking teenage boy stormed in, frown plastered to his face, and a shock of orange hair. He took the place beside captain Ukitake (13th division)
"This is captain Kurosaki of the 14th division" the ginger hair teen bowed. Silence filled the room yet again, and then the girls did something that shocked all the captains. They turned to each other and started whispering furiously, the captains only getting half the fast spoken works.
"It can't be."
"But it is"
"...strange"
"abnormal..."
"...strange swords"
"...orange hair..."
"...14 divisions..."
"...still alive."
As Chloe said the last sentence they turned to look at the captains. The blue haired girl had a massive grin on her face "cool!" the captains relaxed as they relaxed that she had accepted what was going on. In unison they turned to the hooded figure, noting that none of them had seen her face properly, even one the first day. "So. What now?" she said quietly. Relief spread across the captains faces.
The old man coughed "Well. We would like to enter you into a division; you would be trained by the captain and vice-captain in combat and knowledge of the shinigami world. If you would like to?" Amy nodded violently and Chloe shrugged, "You both have a tremendous amount of reiatsu. We would have liked to be able to put you into the academy but due to you circumstances of not being shinigami we cannot do that. You will be assigned to the 14th division good luck"
With that the conversation was over and everybody exited the room. Three people were left, the two girls and Captain Kurosaki.
