Chapter 7: The monster who guards the exit

Whatever was in the fog was too fast for her eyes to keep up as if her mind was playing tricks. Hinamori was shaking trying to relocate the figure. Soon there was warm breath on her neck as he chuckled in her ear smiling with his fangs.

"KYAA!" Hinamori's eyes widen in fear and quickly turned around over her shoulders. There was nothing, she held the side of her neck and shivered. She knew something or someone was breathing down her neck, she quickly started to run trying to look for a wall to hold on to.

Hinamori was at her limit as she couldn't see anything though the fog. She put her arms out trying to get a hold of something. Behind her she could feel someone following her as she heard two footsteps every time she would take a step.

She was so close to the exit, her freedom was only a few inches away! She heard someone chuckle in the fog, whatever it was- she was being followed. Hinamori's eyes watered as she tried to cry in fear.

"MOU! Stop being so scary! I just want to get out!" Hinamori yelled, as she still tried to find a wall to hold on to. She sniffled "Shiro-chan…I'm scared" she said quietly under her breath, she saw a shadowy figure in the fog, it wasn't moving. He heard her call out his name…

"Are you scared, Hinamori?" a voice said. Hinamori in shock as she recognized the voice "Shiro-chan…?"

She started to run towards the shadow "Shiro-chan!" The one person she can count on whenever she was scared, he childhood friend. She always felt safe and secured by her side as she continued to run towards the shadowy figure.

Finally she embraced him with open arms "You came for me! I'm so glad you're here…I was so scared!" Hinamori felt all her fears melt away as she held him tightly. His arms wrapped around her body, she turned her head and saw something…unusual.

Hinamori looked at the side of his ear and saw it was pointy 'Eh?' Hinamori thought as Hitsugaya slowly turned his head to face Hinamori. "Shiro…chan?" she saw his fangs and ears; he looked handsome as she started to blush. He smiled at Hinamori who was in his arms.

Quickly Hinamori pulled away, to take a better look at him and started to giggle. Hitsugaya stood there taken back from the short embrace "W-What?" he asked, Hinamori soon started to laugh; leaving Hitsugaya embarrassed how he was dressed in front of her.

"L-Look, I had no choice! Matsumoto accepted Jushiro's request to help him out for this dumb event…" Hitsugaya explained nervously. Hinamori smiled at her childhood friend "I would have never thought it was you! I think you're a perfect…Monster?"

Hitsugaya shrugged "I think it's called…Dracula."

Hinamori began to tease her friend "I heard you put huge impression on the girls!" she giggled as Hitsugaya raised an eyebrow "What are you talking about? Who told you that nonsense?!" as Hitsugaya explained to his childhood friend what happens when a shinigami reaches towards the exit…and meets him.

-Earlier during the event, inside the maze-

"Yay! Finally reached the exit!" a female shinigami said as she turned left to follow the arrow. The fog was too thick for her to see "eeek…Where is the exit?" she slowly walked towards the open area. A shadow figure moved around the fog "EK! Who's there!?"

Slowly the shadowy figure approaches her, revealing the 10th captain dressed as a handsome Dracula. He stood there looking at the girl and pointed "Exit is over there, get out." He said in a cold monotone voice.

She stood there and soon fainted from the lovely sight. Hitsugaya sighed "Really…?" as he carried her towards the exit which Jushiro and a few shinigami were about to congratulate the survivor.

"CONGRATULA- Eh? Another one fainted?" Jushiro stopped himself as he saw Hitsugaya carrying the girl. "Yeah…It seems like the females are the ones fainting" he said as he placed the girl down. Slowly the fainted shinigami starting to wake up and saw Hitsugaya.

"Oi...She's awake" Hitsugaya said as the girl looks at him, her face flushed red instantly as she fainted again. "Never mind…She's out" he corrected himself as he returned back inside the maze to his station. Jushiro with a smirk "I made an excellent choice putting Hitsugaya Taicho in here!"


Hinamori started to giggle from the story her childhood friend explained "hehe so that's what happened!" Hitsugaya looking away with his cheeks showing a hint of pink "Tsk, stop laughing! I'm not the one who gets easily scared by this stuff!" he said with embarrassment.

She looked at her friend and smiled "It was REALLY scary! I can't believe I made it all the way here…But, I'm not scared anymore…I'm glad you're here Shiro-chan, you always know how to chase away my fears."

Hitsugaya looked at her smile and soften his eyes. Hearing the words she said made him feel he was doing the right thing. He wanted to protect her and keep her safe, he felt proud.

"Hmm…I wonder what those girls were talking about…" Hinamori thought as Hitsugaya crossed his arms "talking about what?"

She looked up and thought about it "Well…I heard from the girls if they wanted to reach the exit…They would have to let you kiss them or suck out their blood…" Hitsugaya stood there shocked and baffled.

"WAIT W-WHAT!? KISS!? I didn't do ANY of that!" he yelled.

Hinamori nodded "Yep! That's what they said" with a smile. Hitsugaya was taken back from hearing the false rumors as he looked at Hinamori's smile.

He sighed with a smirk "Well…" he swiftly grabbed Hinamori and wrapped his arm around her body. Slowly he leaned towards her causing her back to arch with their eyes locked. Hitsugaya softly placed his hand on her cheek with his thumb on her soft lip.

Brushing his thumb across her thumb "I guess if you want to leave this place, you would have to let me…" Hitsugaya said with a smirk as Hinamori blushed red.
