Hoshi ran all the way back to her dorm. Leaving a very confused Kenpachi, Yumichika, and Ikkaku in her wake. Hoshi burst though the door, only to find that she was too late. "Crap."
"Hoshi Takaya!" Yamamoto roared. "Where have you been? Your fitting for the shinigami uniform was a half hour ago."
"I was out drinking." Hoshi admitted.
"Again?!" Yamamoto yelled. Hoshi backed up a bit.
"Sorry. But at least I didn't get drunk this time." Hoshi defended.
Letting out a long sigh Yamamoto shook his head and left. Hoshi smiled and the tailor set to work, despite the late hour. Hoshi did as he asked, stripping down to just her underwear so that he could take her measurements. She wasn't comfortable with that, but he was a scrawny man, and she knew she could take him down, if he tried anything.
"You couldn't make it batter fitting could ya?" Hoshi complained, looking at the loose fitting garment.
"Sorry, Takaya-san everyone has to wear the standard uniform." He sighed, getting up. "Have a good night Takaya-san."
Hoshi closed the door behind him. Taking off her uniform she folded it and flopped onto her bed. Now that she had been advanced so many times she now had her own room. Hoshi fell asleep almost instantly.
As she slept Hoshi dreamed. She dreamed of a tall man, with spiky hair. He was covered in a Hollow's blood. Hoshi smiled. The man had a gruff voice and a harsh wicked laugh. Hoshi liked it. Just before Hoshi saw his face she woke.
Hoshi sat up, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "Weird dream." She muttered. Getting out of bed, reluctantly, Hoshi donned her shinigami uniform. She grabbed her zanpakuto and headed out the door. As she made her way to the 11 division, her small bag of things on her back. The other students watched in shocked silence as Hoshi walked out of the Academy. Ikkaku and Yumichika greeted her.
"This way Hoshi." Ikkaku said leading the way.
As the group walked though to the 11 division Hoshi asked. "So any idea of what rank I'm gonna get?"
"No. Captain Zaraki didn't say." Yumichika answered. "You'll find out soon enough though. And don't think that you'll be getting that high a rank, you're only a girl after all."
"What was that?!" Hoshi snapped.
Yumichika and Ikkaku flinched. "I-it's just th-that."
Hoshi silently glared at them. "That girls aren't good fighters, is that what you think?" Yumichika backed away slightly. "That's pretty odd considering your vice-captain is an 8 year old girl."
The two men immediately shut up. They reached the 11th division in short time, walking quickly into Kenpachi's office.
"Captain Zaraki." Ikkaku and Yumichika bowed, while Hoshi remained standing, much to their shock.
"Good, you're here." Yachiru smiled cheerfully. "Ken-chan was getting tiered of waiting."
"Hoshi Takaya." Kenpachi stood crossing his arms. "You're my new 4th seat. Welcome to the 11th division."
Hoshi grinned wolfishly turning to Yumichika. "And you said not to expect a high rank. Thank you Captain Zaraki. Heh, I'm glad I got fourth. Four's my favorite number."
"Why is that?" Kenpachi asked.
"Because," Hoshi smiled dangerously. "in Chinese, the word for 4 is pronounced and spelt the same as the word for death."
Ikkaku and Yumichika backed away from Hoshi. Kenpachi laughed. "I knew you'd be a good addition to the squad. Yumichika, show Hoshi to her room."
