Bleach chapter6.
( Don't own bleach but I do own the OC's. )
A knock on the door, just a simple rap of the knuckles and I was awake. Opening one eye I scanned the room, same room I'd gone to bed in. Another rap on the door a little more forceful and I was pushing the blankets off me. "What!?" I shouted in a sleepy voice, I was not friendly when I first woke up. "Get your ass up Kayce!" came a voice I knew all to well, Kaydin my best friend who'd come to Soul Society with me and was told by Yamamoto that she could be a Shinigami the night before. "Do you know what freaking time it is Kaydin!?" I shouted as I put my feet on the floor and pushed off the bed. "No but get up!"
"It's not even fucking light out!"
"I don't care, GET UP."
"I am damn it." I walked over to the door and yanked it open staring at the blurry figure of my friend (I'd forgotten my glasses on the night stand.) "Good." Kaydin replied with what I thought was a smug look on her face. Rolling my eyes I smothered a yawn with my left palm. "Get dressed, we have to go see Yamamoto."
"Already? I haven't eaten."
"You can eat afterward or maybe he'll feed you while we're talking."
"Fine." I walked away from the door allowing Kaydin into "my" room. She looked around the room avoiding looking at me while I stripped out the hospital clothes and into the nearly backwards shinigami robes with the green belt and funky symbols stitched into the back and the chest and sleeves. I had worn a karate top but it had always come undone on my till my mother had bobby pinned it together for me when I was around 13, I hoped this wouldn't do what that top had done. Finding strings on the top I tied them together and thankfully it stayed closed. Plus it was long enough to go down to nearly my knees, I was pleased with that. Sliding the black top on over it I let it stay loose over the pants I pulled on next. The green belt helped the pants stay up and it was long enough to double as my katana holder. "The top isn't suppose to be like that stupid." Kaydin pointed out as I stretched. "Oh well, I think it looks cool."
"Whatever, lets go." Kaydin opened the door and outside I could see Shuuhei talking to someone, Kaydin paused and looked at him sorta dreamily before shaking her head and walking out of the room with me behind her. "Hey Kaydin San." Shuuhei greeted with a smile towards her. Kaydin stiffened and gave him one of those goofy shy grins as she bowed to him. "Good morning Shuuhei sama." her voice was kinda squeaky. "Who's that?" he asked referring to me. "My friend Kayce."
"Nice to meet you Kayce."
"It's nice to meet you as well." I replied bowing to him before I started to unwind the headphones from around my MP3 player, sure he was cute but Kaydin liked him so I wouldn't get attached to him, there would other guys. "I'm sorry Shuuhei Sama, we have a meeting with 1st division captain Yamamoto Sama and can't be late."
"It's understandable, I'll talk to you later Kaydin, bye Kayce." He waved to the two of us before turning back to the person on crutches he'd been talking to. Kaydin tried not to run from the hallway but I could see it was either running or stay sighing over Shuuhei all day. "Race you." I said and pushed her shoulder slightly and took a few steps ahead of her. "Bring it." The two of us sped down the halls, jumping over or around the people who occupied the halls this early in the morning.
"I WIN!" I announced hands in the air with my MP3 player dangling by my headphones and Kaydin huffed loudly next to me. "It was a tie dumb ass." she replied in a out of breath tone and I turned to grin at her. "It's about time you two got here." came a snappy voice and I jumped to turn around and see a woman with a seemingly permanent scowl on her face. "Dude, we ran all the way here, how are we late?"
"The order to arrive was given 20mins ago, YOU'RE LATE." She waved a book at me and I leaned back away from it. "What crawled up your ass and died?" I asked and she hit me with the book before grabbing my shoulders with one hand opening a door and shoving me inside, Kaydin nearly got shoved as well but she ducked under the woman's arms and dropped to her knees next to me with all that sever Japanese respect toward Yamamoto while I sat up in a relaxed pose one leg over the other with my arms supporting me. MP3 player Hard Rock Hallelujah in my right ear as I looked at the old man. "You're probably wondering why your clothes are so different from the other Shinigami." I liked a man who got to the point, his vice captain was pouring tea and left the pot on the table. "Please, before I go any further take a seat." Yamamoto pointed to two cushions before him. I pushed myself up walking over to the cushion and plopped down next to Kaydin setting my Katana down on the floor to my right.
"Kayce, your clothes are made to constrain your powers so your emotions will not hold sway over them."
"I'm not a damn little kid who needs to be watched over all the time!" The old man looked at me and I kept talking, it pissed me off to know that people where trying to control me, it was one thing for my father but for a man who I had thought only existed in a TV show was another thing all together. "Take the symbols off, I show you how much I can control my powers, set your freaking beard on fire!" Kaydin looked at me from the corner of her eye, slightly worried about my apparent anger toward Yamamoto. "I cannot do that Kayce."
"Why the hell not!?"
"For your own good and the good of soul society your powers WILL be bound until further notice."
"THAT'S FUCKED! I didn't do anything to you!"
"No but you are too strong to allow freedom."
"I'm not a slave."
"No, your not. You're my ward and until I say other wise all of your clothes will be made with those symbols and if I have to, I'll have them tattooed onto you young lady. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir." I replied and glared at the floor hands on my knees. "What about me Sir?" Kaydin asked sheepishly
"You do not need this kind of precaution, your skills are in the sword and until you show otherwise you will have your Zanpakto." The old man took a sip of his tea before continuing. "You will both receive classes in private but together."
"Yes sir." Kaydin replied while I continued to glare at the floor "I'm not going to stand this.. the moment I get a chance.. I'm breaking out and this damn place can kiss my ass." I thought silently before lifting my head and glaring at the old man who looked at me cooly. I hated this, my powers where like a part of me, cut it off and I'm left with a deep hollow feeling as though something should be there. "Now, follow me and I'll show you to your room."
"Room?"I asked with a tilted head "Yes, you two will be sharing a room."
"Oh come on old man!"
"We do not have enough space for you two NOT to share a room." He stood up with that gnarled old walking stick and walked to another door that he slid open. Sighing I grabbed my sword and followed after him with Kaydin behind me. "You better not snore Kaydin." I told her with a grin and she slapped my shoulder. "I do not snore!!"
"Good cause I'd smother you if you did." I made the motion of using a pillow to smother someone and she laughed as we followed Yamamoto down a hall to a room.
The room was big like master bed room big! Two beds where in the room, night stands, lamps and a set of dressers. "I call this bed!" Kaydin shouted before darting across the room to a bed in a corner. "That's ok I got this side!" I replied as I ran to the bed on the opposite wall. "This is your room, keep it clean and no boys."
"What?! Take all my fun away! Ya know how I plan on fucking half the men in the soul society." I waved my arms and laughed, in truth I'd never even had a close distance boy friend. (LAME) Kaydin laughed and sat up on her bed. "As if Kayce, you'd scare all the guys away."
"Oh please, I can get any man I want."
"I have yet to see it."
"Cause at school I don't want any boys."
"I understand why."
"Well, you two have the day off for today but tomorrow you have training." With that Yamamoto walked off his cane thumping on the floor as he left. I began picking at my clothes again slightly annoyed at how the symbols would stop my powers from being used. That damn annoying wall was still there too, cut off from damn near everything I knew. "You think they'll catch the others?" I asked and Kaydin shrugged her shoulders as she laid on her back staring at the ceiling. "Probably.. but I hope it's them over the bad guys."
"What bad guys?"
"The hollows."
"Oh please, I trust them to trip and fall over themselves before they'd get their asses kicked." Kaydin laughed slightly before sighing and rolling over so her back was to me, it was depressing to know that we where basically nothin but well kept prisoners. I closed my eyes and drifted back to sleep listening to 'because of you' by Ne-yo.
