The next day
Hoshi reluctantly changed into her new uniform. She was just about to walk to her fist class when someone knocked on the door. Hoshi answered and Yamamoto stepped in.
"Captain Yamamoto-sama!" the two other girls said in unison, slightly confused.
"Takaya," he said. "as the principal of this school, I will escort you to your first class but that is all."
"Fine by me. Long as I can keep a relatively low profile." Hoshi shrugged.
"Afaird not Takaya." Yamamoto shook his head. "I must inform the teachers of your abilities and some of the students will want an explanation."
Hoshi slammed her head on the wall. "Well aint that just fucking beautiful."
Her room-mates flinched. "What was that?" Yamamoto asked.
"Nothing." Hoshi sighed walking out the door, with Yamamoto following closely. Her first class was kiduo, taught by Nori Endo. Hoshi walked into the nearly full classroom and waved lazily at her new teacher.
Yamamoto walked in front of the rude teenager. "Endo-san, your new student, Hoshi Takaya." Yamamoto also handed the bespectacled man a file containing Hoshi's information. Endo's eyes went wide as he read the file. "When you're done be sure to give the file back to Takaya so that each of her teachers are aware." Endo nodded. And with that Yamamoto left.
"Right, Takaya-san," Endo said slightly nervous. "Everyone, we have a new student, Hoshi Takaya." Hoshi lazily waved at them. "Since she's new hear please make her feel welcome." Endo turned to Hoshi. "You may now take a seat."
Hoshi walked up to an empty space near the back. Looking over the classroom she saw Miki and Chiyo, they were already spreading rumors. They didn't mean anything by it, the two girls just wanted to seem important because they now shared a room with the girl who made Endo, the strictest teacher in the Soul Society, nervous.
"Did you know…" Hoshi overheard Miki say. "Hoshi made fun of Yumichika in front of half of division 11….." Hoshi didn't hear the rest.
'Least these rumors are true. Hoshi thought to herself.
Endo began the lesson, droning on and on about, reiatsu, and the various spells they would need to learn for the upcoming test. Hoshi took notes, only finding it interesting because she was thinking of ways to kill opponents with the spells. The boy beside her inched away, as a impish grin spread across Hoshi's face. Hoshi took down notes faster then anyone in the class, and Endo noticed. "Alright class, now get to the field, and show me what you can do."
"Field?" Hoshi asked, to no one really.
The boy who was sitting beside her answered. "We go to a training ground and use what we learned in class."
A devilish grin appeared on Hoshi's face. "How interesting." Hoshi walked out with the rest of the class, eager to try out the spells.
"Kido number 9, strike." Hoshi smiled, as a strong blast of red energy hit the target on the other side of the training ground. "Looks like I'm getting the hang of this."
"You certainly are Takaya." Endo complimented.
Her classmates glared at her, they thought that she had cheated somehow. After all how could a newbie perform a perfect kido on her fist day? Hoshi shrugged off the glares, and sat back watching the rest of her classmates. Only a quarter of them hit the targets, the rest barely made it halfway across the field. Hoshi stifled a laugh when Miki tried and it blew up in her face.
After kido class was over Hoshi hurried to Shunpo class. "Is it just me or does sunpo, sound like shampoo?" Hoshi laughed to herself, stepping into the classroom. A woman with short black hair stood at the front of the class. Hoshi handed her the file, that Yamamoto had given her first teacher. "Name's Hoshi Takaya, and as you can see I'm new."
Kimiko Kitakawa, glared at Hoshi then leafed though the file, her eyes widened. "I see. Take a seat Takaya."
This lesson interested Hoshi a lot, because of her size Hoshi had always been fast, it was like this class was made for her. After an hour or two of note taking, Kitakawa ushered the class the field.
"Alright, today we'll be playing tag!" she announced. There were several groans heard. "Shut it! You will be paired into teams of 5 and will use shunpo to avoid who ever is it."
Kitakawa put Hoshi, Miki, Chiyo, and two other boys together. "Ready." Hoshi was it. "and Begin!"
Everyone in Hoshi's group immediately jumped away from her. Hoshi just snickered, using a flash step she appeared behind one of the boys and kicked him in the head.
"HEY!" He yelled, but Hoshi had flash stepped away already.
"Don't hurt your classmates!" Kitakawa shouted.
"Aww." Hoshi fake wined. "But that's no fun. Hahaha!"
The others cringed at Hoshi's sadistic laugh. Shunpo class ended a bit too soon for Hoshi, but her face lit up when she saw what her last class was. "Armed combat!" Hoshi cheered.
Stepping into the class room she saw a big man who had many scars adorning his face. "This should be fun." Hoshi grinned handing him the file.
"Hoshi Takaya." Her last teacher, Kiba Hatake, smiled as he read her file. "welcome to the class."
Hoshi listened intently through the whole lesson, taking notes like a mad man. A wide wicked grin slid onto Hoshi's face as Hatake began to lecture on 'what to do if you lose the use of an arm'. Hoshi was overjoyed when they went to the field again. As Hatake handed out swords Hoshi smiled maliciously, royally freaking out everyone.
"Now I want everyone to only use one hand, and to ensure this." He said, pulling out a rope. "I will bind the hand that you've chosen not to use."
The students lined up in front of Hatake and he tied their arms behind their backs, and told them who their partner would be. There was an uneven number of students so Hatake was going to spar with Hoshi.
"If I cut you," Hoshi asked as everyone prepared to begin. "will I loose marks, or get more marks?"
"Don't get cocky kid," Hatake smirked. "it's your first day, but if you do manage to cut me, I'll give you marks for it."
"This should be interesting then." Hoshi slashed the air.
"Begin!" Hatake ordered.
Hoshi charged with a flash step, and Hatake dodged, jumping into the air. Hoshi kicked off the ground, and swiped at him with her sword. She missed, but cut off a lock of his silver hair.
"Not bad kid." He complimented. Hoshi rushed him again, this time he blocked her sword with his. He brought his sword up, and brought it down over Hoshi's head. Hoshi used her sword to block above has as she quickly went down into the splits, and kicked Hatake's legs from under him. Hatake, didn't expect Hoshi to be so tricky and fell back. Hoshi jumped up and placed the tip of her sword at his neck, while stepping on his stomach, and the bade of his sword, pinning him down. Hatake's eyes widened.
The other students had stopped and watched the whole scene. "Holy crap she's scary!" someone whispered. Hoshi stepped off her teacher and helped him up. "Thanks kid."
"That's enough for today, now go home!" Hatake ordered them. "Oh and Takaya, come here."
"Ummm….okay." Hoshi frowned slightly. "What is it sensei?"
"I'm going to ask Yamamoto to put you into the advanced class." He told her simply.
"Does that mean I'm a really awesome fighter?" she asked, happily.
"I haven't been pinned by anyone for almost 5 decades." He smirked at her.
"Cool." Hoshi smiled impishly.
Hoshi and Hatake walked down to Yamamoto's office. It was mandatory that Hoshi report back to him at the end of the day. When they reached the room, Hoshi's other teachers were there too.
"Ah, Takaya." Yamamoto said with a faint smile. "Please have a seat. It seems that you've done extremely well for your first day."
"I guess so." Hoshi shrugged.
Yamamoto laughed slightly. "Well, tomorrow you will be placed in the advanced class. I hope you will enjoy it."
