Title: Karin In Soul Society
Chapter: 5

Disclaimer: I own nada! Except for a few parts of the storyline & the character RYU

It's been a two days since we've entered in soul society. Apparently we can't get out until this interruder is caught. Which I think is utter bullshit. I was in one of the student kimono's, I laid back on the deck of a small house inside Seirietei. The sky had a good view. I wonder if it'd ever rain here. The sky had a few clouds and a nice cold air blew. My injuries weren't as bad as everyone thought, which landed me a few days off of cleaning since I was right. I could sense Yoruichi's Reiatsu from a mile away. She must be looking for me. I stood up and started to run.

Now, why was I running from my sensai? Well because she thought since they was an interruder, regardless how many freakin' soul reapers there are here. I had to train. Like hardcore training. And I was so not up for that. I ran, thinking of places where Yoruichi would most likely NOT show up. But I was held to a stop, I ducked Urahara's can, laying low, my knee and hand on the ground, ready to fight. "Why are you running?" Urahara asked bored. He had another bottle of sake in his hand. Wow, soul society has so many happy hours an yet they can't protect people on earth. Major bullshit.

"Yoruichi" I explained, trying to catch my breathe. I had forgotten to breathe while on my run. "Training" After saying those two works Urahara made a face then took a sip of his sake bottle. "Oh well, then go on and run. She's coming closer" he flashed a grin. I rolled my eyes.

"Thanks Urahara" I said sarcastically as I ran. I turned every fifth corner I saw, then at the next fifth corner I hid inside of a building. It was big and fancy, and if Yoruichi knew me. I would never dare to enter in something like that. Once I was sure she was long gone. I started to walk out, in the oppsite direction. I continued my walk until I saw most of the taichou's training. So basically I've met most of the captains. Well the ones Urahara introduced me too. They were still a few I didn't know. Like the ones that looked so utterly familiar. But my mind kept forgetting about them and once I remember I'd forgotten already to ask. The white haired kid was growing angry at his sword. Mr. Bell head was laughing at something the pink haired girl said.

"Thought you could run didn't you" I sighed, I knew she'd find me eventually. I turned to face her.

"How do you do that?" She gave me a grin before walking toward the taichou. "Clear this up guys, we're training here"

"Yo Rin-chan" Jinta walked over to me and threw a wooden word at me. I raised an eyebrow. "Come on" he said flashing a cocky grin. "I'll go easy" I shook my head laughing then walked toward him. I've practiced with swords, but not as frequent as fist. Yoruichi told me that one day I'm not going to have a sword to rely on or my soccer balls. He lunged forward, I dodged that hit, using my sword to spin around his and try to stab him, but he was quicker. He pushed his sword up causing mine to get out of my hand. Now the sword was on the other side of the room. He grinned. "Lost already"

"Not until, I get stabbed three times" I announced. I slid underneath him, then tumbled. Once I regained my balance I ran to my sword on the other side of the room. I saw a flash and dodged it getting stabbed in the arm.

"One" Yoruichi called out with her arms crossed. I pushed my legs underneath him, kicking him down. I jumped back up and made another dash for my sword. Jinta wasn't on the floor anymore, or anywhere around. I listened in carefully. I grabbed my sword then threw it. Hitting dead and center on Jinta's chest. "one" she called out again. Jinta waved the sword with a grin. Maybe throwing it was a bad idea. He charged at me, I jumped. Grabbing my sword form his hand. I used my other hand to balance on his head while I jumped over him. Once I was behind him, I stabbed him in the back. "Two"

"You're getting better" he noted. I shrugged.

"You're getting worse" I teased as I jumped back a few feet away from him. Jinta disappeared, but once I found him. It was too alte. He had already stabbed me. I clenched my jaw and backed up.

"Two to two. Next point wins" Yoruichi called. "Let's make this interesting. Winner doesn't have to put up with my trainning" Me and Jinta looked at each other. Her training was hell. It wasn't as bad as Urahara, but it was still pretty bad. We nodded and stared at each other.

We circled around each other. I waited for his move and he waited for mine. Then we both lunged at each other, I dodged his hit while he dodged mine. Both of our wooden swords it against each other so many times. Until finally both of our swords flew out of our hands. We looked at each other. Then dashed for the sword, knocking each other down. I kicked him in the back, causing him to fall foward. Then he grabbed my leg pulling me back. We were running and trying to knock each other down. Right when I picked up my sword and turned, he did he same. Both of our swords were neck and neck.

"Hey look it's a puppy!" Jinta said pointing towards behind. I quickly stabbed him in the chest as he did that.

"Try and stay focus instead of trying to distract your oponent" I said grinning. He threw his sword on the floor mumbling his defeat.

"Okay, gotta hand it to you. You beat me. Big whoop"

"Which means I don't have to train!" I started doing my happy dance. I loved training and all, but too much of a good thing can kill you. "No, no training for meeee!" I sang as I danced. "In. Your. Face" I said sticking my tongue out at him.

He shoved me. "Shut it!" We walked out of the training room, heading to where Urahara's at. "Hey. Where's Ryu? It's been two days and he hasn't been back at the stop yet"

I shrugged. "I really don't know" I said as we walked past a door, I suddenly felt a strong reiatsu. I stumbled and grabbed onto Jinta's shoulder.

"Hey. Karin? You okay" he asked worried. I nodded and shook the feeling out.

"Yeah," I lied, we continued to walk. I looked back at the door, I could see the dark purple aura flowing out.

"OH RIN-CHAN~" Urahara called. My mind forgot about the purple aura as I focused on Urahara, he was sitting on steps with a few other people drinking. They each had a white thing on. Huh, they must be important. I grumbled as I walked over to Urahara. "Time for training" he said smiling at me.

"What? Training? Urahara, I think you had too much sake" I stated with my hands on my hips. "Sensai said that I didn't have to train"

"Noo, I said you didn't have to train with me. You are now training with Urahara" Yoruichi said grinning at me. My mouth hung open.

"Oh, now I'm so glad I lost" Jinta explained. I pushed him, causing him to fall since he missed a step.

"Oh shut it Baka-Jin" I said glaring at him.

"It's easy." He stood up and walked over to me. Turned me around and I knew I was blinded by a cloth. "Remember we did this the very first time you asked me to train you" I rolled my eyes, too bad he couldn't see it. "Jinta, you are her oponent"

"Again!" I heard him saw, I also heard him grumble some unkind words. I kicked forward, when I felt a somewhat hard yet soft surface, an ow, and heard a big bang. I knew I nailed him.

This was a technique Urahara showed me. He told me that in a battle I only have a second to see things. Sometimes these things move and I won't remember their placement. Which is why I must learn to feel their reiatsu and learn where they're movements are. I must try to be them and know where they hit. For a while, I did very bad. But eventually I was pretty darn good at it.

I focused around me. I could see the colors of reiatsu through the cloth. I couldn't see the person, but I could see their reiatsu. I felt Jinta's red reiatsu run towards me, I dodged it. His reiatsu traced his body. I could feel it and yet see glimspe of it. Then he disappeared. I couldn't feel his reiatsu anymore. I listened carefully. Any sound of moment and I had him. Another thing about this exercise. If they lower their reiatsu, the only thing you could rely on his your hearing. Once I heard a twing snap beside me, I knocked him off of his feet.

"OUCH FUCK," I knew I had him. I removed the cloth and smiled.

"I win again!"

"ICHIGO!" my heart stopped beating. Or at least felt like it. Ichigo. It's been a while since I've heard that name. That baka of a brother. I clenched my fist. When I looked up I saw a young girl, about my age running to him.

"Nii-san" the girl stated, beside her was another girl that I didn't recognize. They talked and I thought about Ichigo and Yuzu. Which the girl looked smiliar too. And that guy that Urahara was talking too resembled my dad... It couldn't be. Could it?

"uh oh thinking face." that snapped me out of my deep thought. I rolled my eyes. "Come on Rin-chan, we should go look for Ryu"

"I'm in on that" I stated.

(Toshiro's POV)

Ichigo was laughing at me. He was broken down laughing into tears. I was already annoyed. "Kurosaki taichou!" I yelled, he looked up at me, trying not to laugh. "It's not funny!"

"Why are you telling me this? Go ask one of the elders. They'd probably know" he stated. I rolled my eyes. So basically, I had just told Ichigo that hyourinmaru had refused to use his bankai on that stupid girl! That inturder! And he won't even talk to me about it! He's hiding something from me. So I told Ichigo because he was the only person who I thought would actually help me out. But boy was I wrong. This guy is a major idiot. "Come on, I'll help you look in the library or something"

We started to go to the library when I saw that girl. The girl who freakin' did something to hyourinmaru! She was with that red headed kid Jinta. She rolled her eyes and shoved him like he was a toy. "Rin-chan! This is serious stuff! Urahara wouldn't just come to soul society to have a drunken party with his old friends. You know that"

"Yeah, but knowing Urahara when he feels like telling us, he will."

"Wow, you are not bother by any of this?"

"Course I am! Which is why you should listen to Yoruichi and Urahara's conversation. They turned around the corner as me and Ichigo entered the library. It was filled with books, scrolls, everything and anything about previous soul reapers to the human world. To the history of Kido.

(three hours later)

Ichigo and I spent three hours looking for something, but it wasn't there. There was nothing on your swords hiding themselves against an enemy. Which left me with one option. Ask. Urahara.

Ichigo went off with his father to visit his mother to have some family bonding time. I shrugged it off. I walked into my office to see Rangiku talking to the girl who freakin' did some weird thing to hyourinmaru!

"Wait, sorry repeat that. Your name is what?" Rangiku asked. I cut in before she could answer.

"Did you do your paperwork" I asked. Ranguki looked at me, her eyes telling me something but I shrugged it off. "Well?"

She rolled her eyes. "Yes Taichou!" She focused back on the girl. "Now your name"

"Karin Kurosaki" I froze. Why did that name sound so familiar. I understood Kurosaki, but Karin. That name. It sounded very familiar. Rangiku and I looked at each other, she eyed us carefully.

"RIN-CHAN~ OH RANGIKU! LET'S GO WE'RE PARTYI-" Urahara stopped. He looked back at the other taichou's "I'll catch up" Kurosaki-Taichou nodded and dragged the two other taichou's out. "So you know"

"Know? Know what?" she stood up and walked over to Urahara. "Ura-"

"does she know" I asked.

"what! know what?"

"not yet"

"what don't I know yet!"

"Are you gonna tell her?"

"hello?"

"Maybe... unless you would want to did that for me. Seeing as you two were very close. Toshiro Hitsugaya."

She froze.

Karin's POV

Toshiro Hitsugaya. The guy that helped me win my soccer my game, but I knew there was something else. He somehow knew Ichi-nii too... And then it just connected all together. Ichigo was a Soul Reaper. I was right. He lied to me. He abandoned me. Urahara knew. Jinta knew. Everyone kenw Ichi-nii was a soul reaper. They knew about my family. But I wondered if they killed that hollow. They must have. There was that man that looked like my father. There was that girl that looked like my sister but an older verison. But the thing was. In soul society you were suppose to stop aging. One year in the human world was like 10 years here. Questions ran through my head. But one thing flared through my mind.

"I'm going to kill Jinta" I growled
