I wasn't planning on writing this one up so soon, but I'm bored out of my mind and I have nothing else to do, so why not write.
I think my first chapter went ok, at least I hope it did. Well I kinda wasn't planning on making Harumi so well 'nit witted' but the whole Captain thing just over-whelmed her and well let's just say she really isn't completely hopeless. This chapter will hopefully show that, so without further ado…..
-:-Chapter 2--
When Harumi and Shūhei got to the gate everyone else was already there.
"Don't tell me I'm late again?" Harumi asked worriedly, slighting covering her eyes in embarrassment.
Renji laughed a bit and walked up to his long time friend. "Your just on time, not like this morning."
"You heard about that!?" She asked shocked that he had already found out.
"Yeah Matsumoto told us." Kira blurted out pointing his thumb at the large breasted woman with Hitsugaya.
"Gee thanks."
Matsumoto only smiled in that 'no-problem' kinda way.
"Any way, we should be going now." Hitsugaya said with his arms folded and eyes closed. "Ichigo and the others are waiting for us."
"Yeah, right." Harumi said with a slight nod.
All six of them turned and walked through the gate that led to the human world.
--Ichigo's school-:-
"Ichigo!" Rukia shouted, while running towards him. Ichigo, Uryū, and Chad were sitting on the roof in their normal spot. "Ichigo, I just got word that Renji and the others just past through the gate and are on their way here."
Ichigo opened one eye, and had an unconcerned look on his face. "Yeah, so what?" He asked letting out a loud sigh, like he didn't care.
"Do you always have to be like that!?" Rukia called out, bending down to yell at Ichigo.
Ichigo jumped up and pointed his finger at Rukia's face, right between her eyes. "Hey give me a break, Rukia! I couldn't care less about them coming." He started, folding his arms across his chest. "I don't even know why we need them here. I can handle this without their help." Ichigo fought back, before turning away with a pout and looking through the gated fence that outlined the rooftop.
"Ichigo your impossi-"Rukia began, but was then cut off by a familiar voice coming from behind her. They all looked behind Rukia at the group that just appeared.
"What were you saying about not needing any help?" Renji questioned, smirking.
"Renji!" Rukia shouted with a smile on her face.
"Great why did you have to come?" Ichigo said in an unenthusiastic tone.
"Because apparently you need our help…" Harumi said with a smirk, looking straight at the orange haired teen.
"Hey who's the shrimp?" Ichigo blurted out, moving his hand down and stopping near his hip, trying to imitate Harumi's height.
"Who you callin' shrimp!" Harumi angrily shouted, clenching her fist tightly. "You wanna come over here and say that!"
"Fine by me. I'm not afraid of you!" He said stepping forward with one foot, gritting his teeth.
Harumi was about to leap towards Ichigo, but Shūhei and Renji held her back. "Take it easy Captain. No need to get all wild up." Shūhei said in a calm voice.
Harumi wiggled her way out of Renji and Shūhei's grasp and turned her nose up to Ichigo and gave him the cold shoulder.
"Can't you get along with anyone, Ichigo?" Uryū commented, rolling his eyes.
"WHAT WAS THAT!?" Ichigo demanded, turning his glare at Uryū.
"Ichigo, you moron." Rukia sighed inwardly, before whacking Ichigo over his head. "Shut up for once. We have bigger things we need to deal with other then these petty little problems."
Ichigo rubbed his head, and then plopped back on the ground, crossed his legs and arms, and pretended to ignore everyone.
"If you guys are done, we need to talk about these attacks." Hitsugaya spoke up. "Have you guys been able to find anything out about what, or who these people are?"
"Not at all. All we know is these people are taking the souls of human people. We don't know exactly why but we are still trying to figure it out." Rukia said with a serious look on her face. "We haven't even really been able to locate then when they actually attack the humans."
"So basically there really aren't any leads that we can follow?" Harumi said somewhat disappointed.
"Captain's what should we do?" Kira asked from behind everyone.
"We have to try and figure out what these people are planning. And try to find something that will point us in the right direction." Hitsugaya explained. "Tomorrow we will start to research more, but for know I say that we just look around without getting involved too much."
The bell rang, letting Ichigo and the others that it was time for them to go back inside and finish up the day while the rest split up and search around town.
"If you guys find anything out, call my phone." Rukia said before running to the door heading back downstairs.
Everyone had left already, all but Ichigo. He looked at Harumi, narrowed his eyes and made a 'pf' noise, before descending down the stairs.
"Looks like Harumi made herself a friend." Renji teased, in a sarcastic way.
"Shut up, Renji." She back sassed. "Any-who, I say that we split up, so we can search more of the area."
"Captain Harumi is right." Hitsugaya agreed. "We will split up in groups of two. Kira you and Renji, Matsumoto you and Shūhei, and me and Harumi will go together. If any of you find anything, or see anything call either me or Captain Harumi."
"Got it!" All four of them said in unison, before dispersing in two different ways.
Harumi looked around and tried to sense any spiritual pressure. Nothing. The only thing she could sense was the spiritual pressure of the others.
"Hey Hitsugaya can you sense anything? I can't, nothing but the others."
Hitsugaya walked to the edge of the roof and looked out at the city below. "I can't either. I don't get it. Why aren't we able to sense any of their spiritual pressure? It just doesn't make any sense."
Harumi walked up beside him and leaned on the fence. "I know what you mean. Who are these people?" She said gazing at the other side of the roof. "Well should we go?"
Hitsugaya merely nodded before jumping on top of the fence and then to the roof below. Harumi followed after him. They had been all through the town, and haven't been able to find a single clue, and by the lack of calls, they figured that none of the others have either.
"This is turning out to be pointless." Hitsugaya finally spoke up after the long silence. He stopped and jumped onto the pavement, and started looking around in random directions. "Where are they? Wouldn't they have made a move by now?"
I landed beside him and folded my hands behind my back and smiled. "Oh come on. Not everything comes so easily. You have to work for some things. We just have to look harder, and more. It's only our first day. Give it some time." The sun was setting and the glow from the sun shone on Harumi's face making her natural features stand out more.
"I guess she is right." Hitsugaya thought to himself. "Let's go find the others."
"Alright." Harumi took out her black razor phone and called up Renji and Shūhei so she could tell them where to meet up again. Hitsugaya called up Rukia to tell her that they were headed back.
Everyone met up again at the rooftop of the high school. This time Orihime joined them.
"So I'm guessing that you guys didn't find anything?" Rukia asked. She obviously came to that conclusion not only because they didn't call but because of the look of defeat on most of everyone's face.
"Psh you got that right. A whole lotta nothing, that's what we found." Renji complained plopping on the ground.
Harumi slightly kicked his knee. "Shut up. This is only the first day. Like I told Tōshirō you have to work a bit harder for some things. Not everything in life will come automatically."
"Yeah, yeah…" Renji muttered resting his chin in his hand.
"We will still be on the look-out tonight too." Tōshirō spoke up, eyeing Harumi and the Lieutenants.
Ichigo made a slight noise before addressing everyone. "You don't need to try so hard. Whatever 'it' is, it will turn up eventually. If these things know that you are out looking for them, they might not show up." Ichigo had a slight point.
"Well that's true, but we need to find these things before things get even worse. No need to put more human's life's a risk, because we took some time off. This is part of our job. And we either do it right or not at-.."Harumi was cut off by a familiar sound.
Everyone turned their attention to the direction the sound came from.
"A hollow!" Matsumoto shouted.
"Yeah but not just one." Chad said pointing in the direction of yet more rumbling.
"Yeah well there aren't just two either." Kira added pointing out three more behind them.
"There's five!?" Rukia and Ichigo bellowed in agreement, slightly shocked that there where that many.
All of them reached for their swords and smirked.
"Time for some action…" Harumi said before jumping off with Hitsugaya, to take care of the hollow that was farthest away.
-:- Ok so there is the second chapter. How'd it go? Rate and Review please.
Oh and just to let you all know, that I really gotten this far in the anime yet, so I still have to catch up. So I probably won't be following the story line to much…just a bit.
