Yawning, Momo opened her eyes to meet pitch black dark. She laid there for a few minutes, just listening to the cricket's chirp from outside. It was still dark out... sighing Momo rolled out from under her nice, warm covers and grabbed her sword. She carefully put it in her sheathe and grabbed the bag that she had packed earlier in the night.
Quickly glancing at the clock she noticed that it was around four in the morning. She sighed, she had to leave in an hour. Wondering what to do she looked around her room...nothing. She had packed, cleaned her room, and checked to make sure everything was in place the day before.
She was too awake now to go back to sleep so that was out of the question. Scanning her room one more time her eyes fell on the documents of her next mission...Walking over to her desk she picked it up and stared at the name; Toushiro Hitsugaya...
Walking back to her bed she sat down and read through the papers. This was the one thing she forgot to do yesterday. 'Figures...' She thought as she turned the page.
-----------------
Name - Toushiro Hitsugaya
Age - Unknown
Hometown - Rukongai district 1
Last Apperence - Ten yrs.
-----------------
Momo's eyes went wide...Rukongai district one? That's where she grew up...'Maybe that's why his name sounds so familiar...I must of heard it somewhere around there...' She thought. She kept reading;
-----------------
Spiritual level - Captain
Squad - Ten
-----------------
Momo was, once again, surprised. 'Hmm...Captain of squad ten huh? I wonder If Captain Matsumoto knows anything about him...'
Quickly glancing at her clock, she noticed it was now four-thirty...
-----------------
"Oof!" Rukia mumbled as she hit the floor. She was about to snap at whoever it was until she caught a glimpse of orange hair. "Ichi--I mean Captain Kurosaki." Rukia mumbled, Ichigo rolled his eyes, "Please, spare me all the proper crap...Ichigo is fine." He said as he adjusted his new captains haori. Rukia laughed, "I must say you definitely have a dangerous air about you now..."
Ichigo smiled, "It makes me seem sexy doesn't it." He stated rather than asked. Rukia blushed, "I-I didn't say that! I simply meant that...you look different..." She mumbled.
Ichigo smirked, "As do you, lieutenant." Rukia smiled, like Ichigo, she also had a new position of authority. She had now become the lieutenant of the thirteenth squad. 'She looks somewhat different this morning...prettier than usual...' He thought, not that Rukia was ugly or any thing, before...it's just that he was sort of seeing her in a different light now. Rukia yawned which brought him back to reality, 'What did I just think?!!' He thought and mentally scolded himself.
Rukia was now looking at him rather concerned, "Are you feeling okay?" She asked. Though she couldn't hide the amusement that shone in her eyes. Ichigo could feel his face get hot and quickly crossed his arms as he nodded his head. "Yep, never better!! So...what are you doing up so early?" He asked, trying to change the subject.
Rukia smirked, knowing full well that she had Ichigo in the palm of her hand, but let it go...it was too early to start bickering...besides, with the way their voices always seemed to increase when they argued, the whole Seireitei would wake up.
Yeah... now was not the time for a screaming match.
Rukia shrugged, "I don't know...just enjoying the peacefulness...And you? Why are you up so early?"
Ichigo smiled, "My lieutenant is going out on a mission today...I was told by Renji that she leaves at five." Rukia smirked, "Awww...How cute. Not many captains do that anymore...sucking up are we?"
Ichigo frowned, "No! I'm just trying to be a good captain! That's all!! Now step aside shorty!" He started to laugh and Rukia glared, "That was not in the least bit funny..."
Ichigo ignored her and kept on laughing. Rukia stomped on his foot and snatched his ear, bringing him down to her height. "Listen Captain. You may be a higher rank, but I swear that if you call me shorty one more time I'll--"
"Rukia? Ichigo?" Said a confused voice behind them. Said people turned their heads and found Renji staring at them with the utmost amusement.
Ichigo took a step towards his direction, "What are you doing up Renji?" He asked, Renji blinked, "Um...getting ready to wish Momo good luck." Ichigo smirked and turned towards Rukia, "See, I'm not the only one who's doing it!" Rukia rolled her eyes and started to walk in the direction of Momo's room.
As they neared it, Rukia pulled Ichigo to a stop. "Some advice before you see Momo...Don't say anything bad about Aizen in front of her...in fact don't even mention him or anything to do with him at all." Renji nodded, "Yeah...in fact, the less you say the better."
Ichigo glared at him, "Watch it lieutenant." Renji glared back but kept his mouth shut. Rukia cleared her throat to get Ichigo's attention and gave him a warning look, "I mean it. Nothing about Aizen, the poor girl has suffered enough." Ichigo nodded, "Okay."
------------------
Momo took a deep breath and picked up her bag. She took one final look before she opened her door and took on the crisp morning air. It was then that she heard voices. Momo turned around and saw her new Captain in a heated argument with Lieutenant Kuchki and Renji.
She smiled at Renji who smiled back and ran towards her. "Hey Momo! Just came to wish you good luck." Momo smiled, "Arigato Renji." She gave him a small hug. "Sorry Izuru couldn't be here...ever since Urahara came back and became Captain of squad three, he's been getting assigned missions like crazy!" Momo smiled, "It's alright."
She then turned towards Ichigo and bowed, "Captain Kurosaki." She greeted politely. Ichigo stopped bickering with Rukia and stared at Momo dumbfounded. "Uh, hey there Momo...I mean lieutenant Hinamori...I mean--"
Momo chuckled, "Momo is fine. Just call me that." Ichigo nodded, obviously not very used to this. Momo turned to Rukia, "Lieutenant Kuchki, Congratulations on you're new position. I'm sorry I never got the chance to congratulate you before." Rukia smiled, "No need to apologize, and call me Rukia."
Momo nodded, "Well, I better get going." She said as she swung her bag over her shoulder. "Bye Momo!!" Said Renji waving his hand, the others followed suitely. "Bye guys!" She replied and started to hop from building to building.
-----------------
It was cold and dark. He'd been walking non stop for nearly three days.
Damn, he wasn't expecting that last attack. He never even saw it coming.
As he started to lose his sight he wobbled to the left. Three days...it had been three days since he got this wound, and it hurt like hell. He thought he had the bleeding under control but the last attack reopened it.
He knew he needed to stop walking, find shelter, and treat his wound. And he would've done just that...if a snowstorm hadn't ushered it's way here and got him lost. He also knew that he was leaving a nice blood trail for the trackers to follow. But sadly, there was nothing he could do at the moment.
'Is this really how I'm going to die?' He thought. 'No! I refuse to die like this!' Forcing himself to continue walking, he noted his breathing was getting harder. But lucky for him there was a cave near by.
Quickly crawling towards it he collapsed on the ground and let the darkness consume him.

Hey guys! Thanks for the reviews on the last chapter! They were great! Sorry there wasn't much Hitsugaya in this chapter but I thought I'd take a minute to introduce the other characters and give you somewhat of an idea as to how I'm doing this...
Also, does anyone know how old Hitsugaya is? Next chappie should hopefully be up soon!
Please Review! Because they make everything wonderful!
