Chapter 6
The room started to slowly go back to normal, despite the tension between Tatsukichi , Ayumi and the new kid. The student kept stealing glances at the white-haired
child. He didn't show any emotions on his face, which slightly unnerved them. Even though they weren't sitting near him, they could feel a cold aura surrounding him.
Misuki sensei found it was harder to teach the students today, and wanted to keep them from straying. So she clapped her hands twice to get their attention.
" Alright you guys, enough dilly dally. It's time to practice your Kido, you will be graduating soon, so lets not let it go sloppy now. Gather outside and line up in four rows for me."
The students stood up from their chairs and gathered outside. Hitsugaya was the last one to go outside and just stood in the line closest to him. The students in the same row inched as far away from him as possible, not wanting to get close to the wierd looking kid. Hitsugaya was used to the same treatment so he just ignored it.
Misuki sensei was standing to the side and was carrying a clipboard and brush to record down their scores. She ordered to students to practice the Hado, way of destruction.
The students took turns one by one in each row to recite the spell and aim it at the target board, while Misuki sensei wrote down the scores. Hitsuagaya saw that the students were pretty focused on their reiatsu, but the amount that they were putting into the spell was unsteady and over used. 'That would have to be fixed.' he thought.
Soon, before he knew it, it was his turn to cast a Hado spell. All of the students were watching him, curious to see . He stepped up, aimed his hand at the target board , and muttered,
" Hado, number 31 Shakkaho!", the red light shot from his hand, and went directly into the board, destroying it. The students were gaping at him with surprise and awe. He had conjured up the spell without even saying the incantation. It took a very experienced shinigami to do that!
Now the students have seen an example of his ablilities. They knew he was strong. But that was what Hitsugaya wanted. It might solve a few problems, like for one, they wouldn't underestimate him as a mere weak child. The students knew they needed help, so they would try to find someone who could assist them. There might be a possibility that they would go to him to ask for it, because he knew it would be more troublesome if he was the one who went to them. It would cause discomfort for all, and will be a a hindrance in training.
Hitsugaya began to walk slowly back into the classroom. He had already gone through the schools' daily schedule and knew the first class was about to come to an end. The students looked curiously after him wondering what he was doing, and why wasn't Misuki sensei stopping him. The bell suddenly rang and startled them, causing them to jump.
Misuki sensei just smirked at Hitsugayas' precision, and dismissed the children.
Hitsugaya picked up his books, and walked out of the classroom, not issuing a single glance back. Tatsukichi and Ayumi stared after him, the fear still clear in their eyes. Then they too, packed up their stuff and started walking to their next class. They walked in silence before Ayumi broke it.
"It's been quite a while since we've see him, ne Tatsukichi-san?"
Tatsukichi looked at her and nodded." Yeah, remember his ba-san said that he went to this academy with Hinamori?"
"But that was 70 years ago!, It only takes 6 years to graduate!" Ayumi exclaimed
Tatsukichi frowned "Yeah so that means that either he was held back, but thats impossible or else the academy wouldn't have accepted him in the first place, or hes' just too young to graduate and has to wait."
Ayumi considered the followings and agreed with him. They walked into their next class, History, and found out that Hitsugaya was also in their class.
Hitsugaya saw this too, and inwardly frowned.'Why, of all schedules must we have the same? Kami is playing a joke on me" Hitsuagaya thought. But he didn't let his annoyance show and just ignored the looks he was given. The reactions to his prescence was the same as the first class, not that it was much of a surprise. They were all the same.
He also noticed that the teachers were eyeing him with wariness, like if something bad happened, he would explode on them. They were nervous to have a captain among them, and even though it wasn't necessary, they treated him with silent respect and kept out of his way. He really appreciated this very much.
The second bell rang to announce it was lunch time. All the students quickly hurried out the door and towards the cafeteria( sorry, don't know if theres any specific names for it).
Though it didn't take much reiatsu to cast the Hado, Hitsugaya felt his stomach growl. It seems the more reiatsu you have, the more food you have to eat in order to conserve your energy. He thought it was sometimes troublesome, but things are what they are.
He followed behind the class, keeping away from them.'I wonder what we're having today. Hope they got tea.' he thought. The last time he was there, he wasn't in need of tea yet, but due to the nights he stayed awake to finish the paperwork that Matsumoto left behind, he found it very soothing for the mind.
He lined up with the students to get their boxed lunches. As soon as he got one, he started to walk towards one of the empty tables. Suddenly, he saw something flash in the corner of his eyes, and before he knew it, down he went. As he fell, he felt hot liquid splashing all over him. If you need to be reminded, Hitsugaya Toshirou, the ice prince, does not dwell well with anything hot. He gave out a short, surprised yelp as he crashed onto ground, hard.
He opened his eyes and immediately sat up. " WHAT THE FUCK!" (Ed moment there :D) he growled and looked for the person at fault. Turns out it was one of the teachers who he didn't have yet. He was staring with horror at Hitsugaya, and was inwardly cursing himself himself for bumping into the captain out of all people. The said captain was trying to calm himslef down before he started a snow blizzard.
The students, who haven't heard the new kid speak until now, was surprised by the deep and furiousness in his voice. They felt the room temperature decreasing until it was almost at freezing point. But everyone was to busy staring at the incident to realize that.
Hitsugaya closed his eyes, then slowlyopened it again to examine the problem more closely. The still burning liquid, which turned out to be green tea, had went all over his uniform.
The teacher was still frozen onto the floor, looking as if it was his death day. Giving a big sigh, Hitsugaya stood up carefully and realized everyone was shivering. He lowered his reiatsu, and the room temperature went back to normal. He could feel the tension building up and did't want it to last long, so instead, he walked over to the teacher a few feet away from him.
He put out his hand, gesturing for the teacher to grab it. The teacher eyes widened and immediately grabbed it and stood up. He looked at Hitsugaya and was about to say something, but Hitsugaya just turned away and stated walking off.
" I'm going to go change" he muttered towards the teachers, who were expecting the complete opposite. Hitsugaya hurried down the hall, towards his room and sighed yet again.' This is not my day.' he inwardly groaned.
