I felt something sharp push against my neck. My eyes opened in fear to see Kirei-chan's face close to mine. Something pushed against my neck harder. I glanced down to see a purely white zanpukuto against my neck. It was around one foot long yet it was strangely beautiful and mystifying. Slowly the blue aura that surrounded her faded as she took her zanpukuto off of my neck.

I… I lost? How-How did I lose. I was so close. I looked at Kirei-chan. She turned to me and smiled bringing her hand up to me. I flinched stepping back. She looked at me strangely.

"Geez. Ya don't have to be scared Riku-kun. All I was going to say was good game!" She said. I eyed her strangely looking into her eyes for the anticipated haughtiness. None. Then took her hand and shook it.

"Good game." I said back smiling. We both smiled at each other sharing the warm moment. I then turned around and started to leave.

"Gomen Riku-kun but I can't have you leaving seeing and remembering what you just seen." Kirei said in a creepy voice. I turned around quickly my eyes opened wide in horror. What?! My eyes caught a glimpse of her far away to then see her right in front of my face. I flinched trying to jump back yet it felt as if something was draining my strength away. I fell to my knees then clashed to the ground.

"I'm sorry." I heard her say before my eyes came to darkness.

Hitsugaya's POV:

I stared at them, my eyes opened wide in horror. What the hell does this girl do on her free time? She just sort of poisoned him by throwing a powder into the air that made him collapse. Slowly she walked to the boy's lying body and started to heal him. When she was finally done she just stood over his body.

"I'm sorry Riku-kun, but it was inevitable. I can't-I can't have you leaving remembering." She said in a pained voice. I stepped out of the shadows.

"Why is that?" I asked loud enough so that she could hear me. She laughed silently to herself.

"There are a lot of reasons for him not knowing." She answered back unconsciously. Silence. She jumped back really quickly putting her hands in front of her as some weird sort of defense looking absolutely freaked out.

"H-h-how did you get in here?!?!" She screamed stuttering in shock. I stared at her. How could've I gotten in here in the first place? This girl is either an idiot and is really really dumb or she just does not know how her own contraption works.

"How do you think I have gotten in here?" I asked bored. She paused and thought about it for a moment thinking. Silence. She looked at me and glared with a sort of crazed look on her face. She pointed her finger out at me shaking it.

"You STALKER!!!" She screamed. A… a stalker?

"ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!?! I'M NOT A STALKER!" I yelled back furiously. I felt veins pulsing on my forehead. She stared at me for a really long moment with an examining look on her face. I flinched. What is she doing?

"Yeah, yeah you're right. You are way to short to be a stalker. I mean who ever even heard of a shorty stalker." She said laughing really hard. For the last time-

"STOP CALLING ME SHORT!!!" I yelled. The veins on my forehead got bigger. Every single day I get teased because of my height from various people and they just don't seem to stop irritating the heck out of me like Matsumoto.

"Yare yare Chibi-chan. I only called you short once. Calm down." She said in a happy yet soothing voice. I could feel the veins pulsing faster and way bigger. Who does this girl even think she is? She barely even knows me and she is already pissing me off. Does she even know that I am a captain?

Kirei's POV

AUGH! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! What the hell am I going to do?! I can't keep him mad and distracted for long and I can't outrun him because cheater Riku injured my leg and my arm. The only thing that I can actually do right know is poison him with the paralysis powder but if he saw me the whole fight he knows how I fight, how I defend, EVERYTHING!

…Well, I was going to get caught anyway… NO! Yama-jii is going to know that I fought hard and he is going to know the extent of my powers from the damage that we made and the condition that I'm in. Kuso. What can I do? I sighed. The only thing I can do is to use the paralysis powder and then use the amnesia because I'm limited in it. Slowly I reached to my pocket (yes we shinigami do have pockets) and felt for the vial that held the powder.

I tried desperately hard to keep my outer appearance on of teasing and not a care in the world and tried not let my inner feelings show of franticness. I kept my eyes locked on him not daring to let it off. I giggled a bit. His beautiful emerald eyes were still filled with anger. I did one more distraction.

"Like I said before. Chill Shirou koebi-chan." I said in a calming voice. More veins appeared on his head as I was trying the hardest I could not to waste precious time laughing away.

"I'M NOT AN EBI!!!" The white haired wonder screamed back at me. He seriously looked like he wanted to kill the hell out of me. But no way I was staying to find out how he was going to kill me because this was my queue. Queue to what? Queue to run like hell dammit! Quickly I turned and did the best that I could to shunpo away from the potential danger. Pain overfilled my leg as I tried to run.

"Argh. Kuso." I muttered to myself as if swearing would take away my pain. I turned back to see Shirou-chan speedily catching up. I hissed silently enduring the blinding pain. Don't let it bother you. Pain is just a signal. Slowly but surely I started to go faster.

I turned back to find him. He was a good twenty feet behind me still catching up. Ok it's time to put this plan into action! As fast as possible I opened up the vial and at the same time pushed off against a tree to have myself speeding in the opposite direction. In short, speeding off toward Shirou-chan. I then took out the vial and held it out on the side of me having the powder slide out. His eyes widened as I passed him. I smirked knowing that I got him.

I then landed lightly on a branch leaning my weight on my right leg not wanting to strain it more. I winced in pain looking up to the white haired boy. He stood there in shock then fell to the ground. It was a pretty good thing that we weren't too high because he certainly would die from the fall because I wouldn't be able to catch him in my condition. I jumped to the ground and stood over him. He was lying on his stomach with his face to the side.

"W-what did you do to me?" He asked apparently really mad. I crouched down to his face and smiled. I brought the empty bottle and showed it to him.

"I paralyzed you using my paralysis powder! Riku-kun was actually my guinea pig to see if it actually worked and stuff. Yet you must've watched to ne? I guess that I'll have to erase your memories too." I sighed. I'm going to have to make a lot more powder now. It's going to take way too much of my time now. I took out my now almost empty bottle of amnesia powder. His eyes were full of anger as he glared at me.

"ALLEYOOP!" I heard a girl's voice say. I my eyes widened in horror as turned around quickly just to feel something really hard hit my head. I slumped to the ground as darkness surrounded me.

I groaned softly to myself. My head hurts… in fact my whole body aches. What the heck happened last night. I opened my eyes slowly to find myself in a bright room and in a hospital bed. A… hospital bed? Memories soon then flooded back to me. My eyes widened in horror. I have to get out of here!

I immediately sat up in bed… or at least I tried to. Something was holding me back. I stared at my arms to see that it had been hand cuffed with leather to the railing on the side of the bed. My eyes widened in horror. I guess they learned from their other mistake on putting me in Velcro straps. Sigh good memories.

I leaned toward my wrist and started to gnaw on the leather. How the hell did that person who knocked me out actually know where I was? I doubt it that the person was with Shirou-chan or they both would've went trying to catch me. Shouldn't the thingy (not yet named though it is the four boxes that acted as a barrier to the fight; see ch. 4) have stopped them?

I lied gnawed harder hoping that it would help me come up with something. How did they get me? Wait… I ran way more then sixty feet. Also if I'm not mistaken we were by one of the boxes during the fight. Yet the boxes are strong enough to withhold regular attacks and only a really strong attack could break it, which would thus let others to feel our reiatsu, which would then make us get caught easier. (She is rambling on in a train of thought. If you guys do not know what this is, it is when you just write down all of the words that go through your head, which is what she is doing now.) Yet… what destroyed that box? I replayed our fight together through my head.

My eyes widened in horror. GAH! I'm such an idiot. I made my own self get caught. (She just figured out that she destroyed the box when she used the souren soukatsui thus meaning that she brought the calamity of being caught over herself.) Nooo! I gnawed harder wallowing in self-pity and in my own stupidity.

I bit really hard after scolding myself just to find my teeth clanging really hard together. I yelped silently not wanting anybody to hear me. I sobbed silently to myself (manga style). Why am I such an idiot? I stared down to see that I actually had bitten through the leather. I smiled in success. Woohoo! I rock! I brought my hand across to my other hand to unhook that one.

Painfully I brought myself off the bed and onto my feet and then am when I finally got a good look at myself. My left shoulder was wrapped up so the bandages went across my chest, my thigh was wrapped up pretty tight too and I had a lot of bandages on my face too. I was dressed in a white yukata that was really thin yet not see through and was about one inch lower then my knees. I smiled at myself. It's been a while since I got beaten up this bad.

I looked around for my clothes knowing that there wouldn't be any. Well… it's not like that stopped me before! I then limped to the window and tried to open it. It didn't budge. Goodness, they sure know how to keep a prisoner tied up in here. I leaned back and was going to kick it open with my left leg when my right leg screaming in pain surprisingly interrupted me. I fell to the ground clutching my leg cursing myself for my once again, stupidity.

ARGH! Damn you Riku! Slowly I got up again and this time was going to punch the window down when I again was interrupted by pain, not in my leg, but in my shoulder. I staggered clutching my left shoulder, like before, cursing myself about my stupidity.

"You really are… an idiot." I heard a voice say behind me. I yelped and jumped around again with a feeble attempt of defense. I turned to see a familiar face. White hair, emerald eyes… short, am I missing anything? I stared at him strangely. He seems more different then last night.

"Urusai! At least I didn't get beaten by some academy student!" I shot back. He glared at me. I glared back. Lightning clashed between our eyes. We stared at each other glaring for the longest time. I have no idea when we actually stopped. Maybe the things that were going through his head was, "do you have any idea who I am," or "how dare she speak that way to me," or something to that effect.
