Volume II Chapter 2

Then He Created Woman

A snake slithers through the twigs and branches that were scattered throughout a small enclosed cave. Inside, there was also a fire brewing with Kisuke laying on the ground with a large grey cloak over his body. At the entrance of the cave was a figure who held their back toward Kisuke. From the back, the being was wearing a tight strapped gown that had black straps, black material on the back with holes that were revealing the apparent woman's flesh. Her skin could be seen on her shoulders, neck, back bones, and through the openings of her arms, the sides of her breasts had striped holes that were revealing her as well. A warm peach tone of color that made it apparent that she was from someplace that was very warm. To go with the color of her skin, her hair was long with a fiery red flashy color. Under her gown, she wore a short skirt with blazing red stripes with her sheathed blade holding sternly on her side. Under the skirt, white strands of bandages were circling around her perfectly round and long thighs could easily be seen.

The woman raised her right long leg and pressed her foot into the wall where her long black boots with white lines could be seen in the light from the small camp fire. She lowered herself and placed a hand over her boot. Her hand was covered in long leather glove that had a red glowing ring over her index finger. She began unzipping her boot from the top, near her knee and all the way down to back of her heel. She then pulled it off and dropped it on the ground as she began taking off the other. Right after she had made herself barefoot, Kisuke woke up and raised his eyes up to where the back of the woman could be seen. She heard him begin to wake up and turned her head slightly to the side, only allowing her right eye to be seen. It was no longer glowing red, instead it was a sort of pinkish color while her reddish/blackish eye brow raised itself in a curious way.

"Pft, enjoying the show there human?"

She snarled as she turned around to reveal the rest of herself to him. Her gown was also black in the front, with the exception that two white colored flowers were pinned near the top of her chest. Around her neck was a purple spiked color which could also be found on the top of her left arm. The front of her chest was large in size, made perfectly to match with the back of her waist. Her lips were painted with a dark red while her eyes had thin black lines surrounding them to give off a Cleopatra look to her eyes. Comparing the tone color of her face to the skin around the rest of her body was only a slight difference. Her face was slightly lighter, meaning that she either painted her face with a lighter color or she has a history of hiding her face from the light.

"I...I suppose I am."

He said as he slowly began to straighten his back and turn his head toward her.

"Hahah! all you humans are the same. Maybe all MEN are. All they want to do and see are woman."

She turned around and took a seat on the ground as she took off her gloves and dropped them near her boots.

"....I suppose you can say that as well."

She turned her head around again and raised her eye again as well.

"What? are you still hurt from when I saved you? because you do know that I saved you and you are very much welcome for that."

"Huh? oh. Yes, why thank you for that...and I'm not hurt. Just curious as to who you are and why did you save me, not only save but are sheltering me here with you."

She twirled around and scooted in front of him with her legs being crossed over one another.

"Cant someone want a little company? as for the saving you part. I do not know. I guess I was just interested in a fight at the time."

She placed a hand behind her neck and massaged herself some.

"Is there anything I can do to repay you? I have very little as you can tell-"

"OH! little you say! I saw nothing. So do not be assuming that I did see anything large or big, or small."

He raised an eye to her as he placed a hand over the top of his head.
"Uhm....yeah. Well, what I meant to say was that I just want to repay you for saving me."

She shrunk herself as she turned her face away from his with a pinkish color now on her cheeks.

"Oh, well do not worry about that. I'm leaving this place tomorrow anyway, so our paths just happen to have been crossed. So lets just leave it at that."

"But it does not seem right...can I at least catch your name?"

She straightened her posture and looked at him with a serious expression on her face.

"I'm Izanami Adachi. That is the only thing you'll get out of me. Now if you'll excuse me....I have to get some rest."

She turned around and leaned down on her side, extending her legs out and slipping her hands under her face.

"Oh....well thanks. Thank you miss Adachi. Thank you very very much."

He stood up and placed the cloak over her. He then leaned down and placed a kiss on her head before her made his way out of the cave.

Izanami curled into a ball as her eyes widened and stayed open until he had left.

"Dammit!....awww. I read the books wrong. Maybe it was suppose to be the other way around."

Kisuke was now outside and was scouting the area around him.

"Ack...this suit is dying already. I have to get another one. While I'm at it, I might as well retrieve Benihime."

He started to race through the forrest. Meanwhile, the snake from earlier quickly darted after him at an incredible speed. About an hour had passed before Kisuke stopped and found himself to be in the ruins of his last home. He looked around and spotted his blade laying on the ground near the broken down bath house he had made a few days earlier. He walked over and picked it up and made his way to the little shady shack across from the rubble.

"Wow, I cant believe that I could be dead right now. Me, the smartest guy from the Soul Society. Or use to be anyway. I guess that's what happens when you loose everything. All because of Aizen..."

He stopped and leaned down to pick up a thin suit laying on the ground. He held it up to his face and glared at it before he slammed it to the ground and fell on his knees.

"Failure! I can't even save myself anymore. My mind is no good to anyone, not even myself."

He pressed his hands over his eyes and began to sob. At the same time, the snake watched from afar and slowly slithered closer to him. All the while, it kept itself hidden under the twigs rocks, and dirt on the ground.

A large breeze swept by and Kisuke turned his head to the right only slightly as a dark figure stood in the shadows behind him.

"A shinigami. How interesting. I had no idea that they could walk on the plane of the mortals."

Said a man like voice who's figure began to move closer and closer towards Kisuke until the beings arm could be seen in the light. It was wrapped around with a number of dry bloodied bandages. Only his fingers were revealing the light colored skin he was colored.

"....and who might you be?...another hollow or maybe another shinigami?"

Kisuke turned around and leaned down to lift a haori that was laying on the ground. He then wrapped it around himself and tied it with the long white rope around his waist.

"I'm surprised. I cant believe you don't have a clue as to who or what I am. Then again, not many beings know of my kinds existence."

The mans fingers quickly grew bloodied claws as he pulled his arm away to hide himself again from Kisuke.

"And I'm going to take a wild guess that that's the way you just love it?"

The man stayed quite for a moment before he spoke again.

"What I love you say. Well I can help you there with that question. I just love.....souls. And yours I am just falling head over heels for!"

The wind intensified as the being darted out of the shadows at an incredible speed. Upon seeing this, Kisuke quickly pulled his right arm up to guard himself from the unknown being. The little snakes eyes widened as it was shocked to see how a lonely shinigami could possibly get into trouble yet again.
