Hi, so this is the second installment of Hidden Soul Reapers. You'll learn why it is called that in a few chapters, well that is of course if I see that people like it. Anyway, on with the show!

"Ryoko," Matsumoto questioned, "How the heck..."

"That's not important right now Matsumoto," Ryoko stated calmly while flipping the dagger in her hand, "What's important is if you want to arrest him or do you want me to."

"Uhhhhh, I will I guess, but Ryoko," Rangiku said while standing up, "what happened? How did you get here so fast? How-WAAH!" She exclaimed as she fell on her face from drinking too much.

"Matsumoto!" her friends yelped.

"Uh. He he, I think I've had a bit to much to drink. Don't you agree?"

"You can't bring this guy to confinement being as intoxicated as you are," Ryoko mumbled as she helped Matsumoto to her feet, "I'll do it for you."

"Um, if I may ask, may I come with you Miss. Tanaka?" Kira inquired, "I don't believe it is safe for a young women like you to be walking around at night, much less with a crime committer."

"O-oh, yeah, I guess..." Ryoko said nervously. She really did not have the social skills to make small talk with a superior. This was going to be a long walk...

"Soooo, that was pretty impressive back there," Izuru commented.

"Hrmm, thank you Kira fukutaicho." Ryoko thanked while blushing.

"Matsumoto was right, you are pretty shy," Kira teased.

"Oh, sorry," Ryoko replied, blushing again.

"Stop with the awkward conversation! I'm already annoyed enough as it is!" said the crook.

"I could make you more annoyed, and tighten these bonds for you, would that be nice?" grumbled Ryoko.

"I'd like to see that," seethed the bound man.

"Now would you?" Ryoko challenged with a deadly glare.

"Yeah!"

"Yeah? Well your wish is my command." With that she tightened the bonds so tight it made his hands turn purple.

Kira stared in amazement. She actually did it. That took some guts to stand up to a felon like that.

"Ow! You actually did it, you bitch!" said felon yelled.

"Be quiet, people are staring" Ryoko mumbled, she hated getting this much attention.

"OW OW OW! SOMEONE HELP ME! I AM BEING MISTREATED!" the criminal screamed as loud as he could.

"Gah! Shut up man! People are staring," Ryoko commanded, her cheeks gaining more and more color.

"Ow! Please someone-"

"B-be quiet! We are already here, anyway!" Ryoko stuttered, releasing him from his bonds.

"Mmmnn, much better," he said smoothly right before he swung around to punch Ryoko in the face, but she caught it.

"Ugh, so much violence from you," she scorned as her hand flicked to his neck and made him fall in a heap to the ground, unconscious.

"Uh, can you help me with him," she said awkwardly to a surprised Izuru.

"What, oh, yeah sure. Where did you learn that?" Kira asked quizzically.

"Umm, from an old teacher," Ryoko said vaguely.

"O-kay," Kira accepted, though with a little doubt.

After they deposited their burden, Ryoko turned to Izuru and said quietly "Thank you for accompanying me, I better see if Matsumoto is still at the bar. I will be seeing you soon." And with that she faded into the night, on her way to the bar.

She left Izuru with a sense of wonder. Wonder about who Ryoko Tanaka was, and why she was so shy, but amusing.

Please R&R!
