Is Death our curse or is it our savior? I own absolutely nothing except a broken pen and some sheets of paper.
Twisted and ForgottenChapter Three:
"WHY THE HELL---" Reigo stared at Shuuhei. Shuuhei groaned inwardly. Just his luck. He was the one being stuck with the almighty lecturer. But apparently Reigo is at a loss for words. "WHO THE HELL---"
"It was your little friend whom you abducted I think around an hour ago." Shuuhei couldn't look at him right. Not after what he found out about what the fourth company did in its spare time.
"What friend?"
"You know the one with the hobby of jumping off cliffs and punching people in the nose. Mainly me."
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO PROVOKE HER!!!" Reigo's voice rang across the room.
"I didn't…"
"So what caused her to punch you? Because Anjyl won't attack someone as long as they leave her alone."
"I told her to shut up. There happy now?"
"WHY IN GOD'S NAME DID YOU SAY THAT?"
"…"
"Why in the first place were you two in the same room?"
"I'm stuck with her for who knows how long because of the first captain…"
"Oh. So you're another one. Bet you won't last a week."
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?"
"Okay let me explain. Anjyl being so… violent needs to be watched at all times. In the past year she's gone through I think fifteen different people and they all ran away from her screaming after I think two days. Now you being a vice captain I'm sure you'll have much more will power."
"So… Any advice?"
"She doesn't care about ranks or titles. If you want her respect… earn it." And with that Shuuhei was yet again unceremoniously pushed out the door.
Shuuhei decided that since it had only been five minutes and Anjyl had taken around a hundred and twenty, he would go visit some people and try to get some advice.
An hour later and Shuuhei had only learned five things.
Don't get her wet.
Don't get her pissed.
Don't make her hang out with annoying little kids.
Don't make any major changes.
And
Don't draw blood.
The main thing was that Shuuhei was heading back when he heard someone saying in an utterly serious voice. "If you want to talk than shut up and go find someone else. As you can see I'm currently debating whether to beat you up or to tell you to shut up again."
And when he turned around who would he see but Anjyl? Yeah that's right and this time she was mouthing off Yachiru. Now we all know that Yachiru could probably be able to beat up at least three quarters of the people in Soul Society.
Shuuhei was amused trying to see who would win, the hyper active little girl with inhumane strength or the oh so violent, temperamental shinigami. His money was on Yachiru but then to his surprise Yachiru backed down. "I'm sorry Anjyl chan… but could you please tell me which way is north?"
An anime sweat drop appeared on Anjyl's head. "That's all you wanted? For god sake go find a compass Yachiru chan."
"I did."
"So where the Hell is it?" Anjyl looked impatient.
"I chewed on it. Than it broke."
"Oh me gee… North… uh…" Anjyl looked up at the sky and thought about it. "It's that way." She told Yachiru this while pointing at the direction of north. Anjyl pointed at a wall with a hole in it and almost everybody in the eleventh company knew what was behind that wall…
"Okay. Thanks Anjyl!" Yachiru headed off in that direction. Apparently Yachiru was one of the few who did not.
"That was so cruel… And don't you still have paper work to do?" Shuuhei inquired as he approached.
"Well she asked me which way was north! And anyways I don't any paper work. You do. But since I'm such a nice person and I was in a good mood I decided to finish it for you… But we have to go pick it up and deliver it because you see I was too lazy to so yeah…"
"… You—" When suddenly he remembered number two on the list of don'ts.
2. Don't get her pissed.
"Do you think you could overpower Yachiru in a fight?" He asked instead.
"HELL NO! She's got freakin' super powers! She's so dammit hyper!"
They started walking back to the room full of paper work. "So why in god's name is she scared of you?"
"Cuz' I beat her in a fight. Oh and then I beat the shit out of Zaraki." They turned the corner.
"But you just said she could over power you in a fight!"
"Exactly. In matters of strength she'd win. It matters if whether I'm pissed as Hell or not. It also matters if I'm as drunk as the devil or not."
"You were drunk?"
"No but I was as pissed as yesterdays Mafia gangsters." She opened the door, thought about something and then suddenly looked at Shuuhei. "Do you consider yourself idiotic?"
"What?" Shuuhei asked sharply as he hauled a pile of reports up.
"You know… as in moronic, dumb, stupid…" She trailed off.
Is this some kind of a test?
"I don't consider myself smart…"
"Tch. Low self esteem. Very bad."
"I NEVER SAID I CONSIDERED MYSELF DUMB EITHER!"
Anjyl fell silent at this. And then quietly, "Do you consider yourself a killer or a savior?"
"I consider myself as both."
"Do you think life is fair?"
"No. Life never was and never will be fair."
"Do you think Tousen left because he wanted to?"
Something in Shuuhei twinged. "Stop asking awkward questions okay."
"You suck."
"Don't we all?"
"What do you think of hollows?"
"I told you not to ask awkward questions!"
"That question is strictly diplomatic."
Shuuhei sighed. " I think they're poor souls with no one to love them."
"That was way too sappy for my taste."
"You have special needs."
"What about those people who sacrifice themselves?"
"They're all cold hearted bastards… with the exception of one or two."
"What do you think of people who are cursed?"
"I think they don't waste their life times asking weird questions."
"You'd be amazed."
"Are you a demon?"
"What do you think?"
"What should I think?"
"What do you think you should think?"
"What do you think?"
"Why the Hell am I talking to you?"
"I don't know. Why are you talking to me?" Shuuhei retorted as they reached they finished dumping the rest of the papers.
And then it came suddenly. Her fist flew out of nowhere as she hit him in the nose.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?"
"Because I felt like it."
