Bleach Ch11
Head-desk, head-desk, head-desk. "Kayce what are you doing?" My teacher asked as I beat my head against the table. "Head-desking," Turning my head just a bit to look at her she seemed sorta weirded out by my actions but I lifted my head to look at her. "Stop your head-desking and go back to your work."
"Yes ma'am." I rolled my eyes and kept my head on the desk, just inches away from my head was a stack of books and papers. All the work I had missed with the four or five days out practicing with Kenpachi. This place was just as bad as my high school! Atop of that Kenpachi was keeping his distance now that we where back in the city, I wanted to clobber that man sometimes but right now I was sorta worried about my feelings for him. He was so much older then me that I sorta sometimes thought of him as a brother or an uncle rather then a boyfriend and he treated me like a little girl.. which I was to him.. Maybe we should stay friends.. Frowning as I lifted my head from the table I glared at the book I was suppose to be reading. Someone had found a English copy for me to read about the demon arts unit. "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!! Dude, where is the Internet!?" I pushed my chair back and it fell over taking me with it. Landing on my back I glared up at the ceiling. Woot for Internet withdrawal! I laid there for a few minuets before a really cute guy came over to loom. "You ok?" He asked as he loomed over me in clothes that where so not Shinigami robes. "Yeah.. but whats with your clothes?" The guy looked at his clothes for a moment before looking at mine. "My clothes are normal.. Yours are the one covered in seals." He pointed to my top making me follow his finger, ok so a black top covered in seals with a white set of pants and over robe covered in seals wasn't an every day sight but it wasn't like it never happened. The guy basically looked like a ninja, maybe he was the special forces or something. He reached a hand down to me and I took it, with a simple pull of his arm I was yanked to my feet, he was really strong. "Soifon would like to speak with you." I knew who she was from my avid watching of Bleach back in the real world but here, I had not heard a word of her so I thought it better to play stupid then to let anyone know I was not of soul society. "Who?" I muttered meekly, not real hard to pull off with being a naturally shy person who couldn't even manage to say hello or flirt with the people I liked in the physical world! But maybe I was coming out of my shell with being so friendly toward Kenpachi.. but he was more of a father or uncle figure then a boyfriend or a crush. Shaking my head from that line of thought I focused on the man in front of me. "Soifon would be the leader of the Special forces unit and second division captain." The man before me crossed his arms and looked at me like I was stupid. "Don't look at me like that! It's not like I was fucking raised here!" I snapped at him and he jumped back from me holding his hands up. "I forget you're from another place." He said in a snide manner, I would of killed him if I wasn't such a wuss and bound nearly hand and foot by these damn symbols. Growling at him appeared to put my point of dissatisfaction across and he backed away from a step attack but did not think of a lunge attack, even though I didn't attack him I lunged forward and stepped on his toes as I walked past him, my hair hitting him in the face. Asshole good looking men.. if they weren't gay or taken.. they where assholes. Tossing my hands in the air I stormed from the little study area and walked down the hall randomly till I was flanked by two ninja looking people. "Soifon escorts I assume?" I stopped in my tracks and they stopped to, it took them a moment to realize I was asking a question. The taller one nodded their head before gesturing that I should follow, I did.
After a long walk out of the corridors and into the open of a court yard where a tree was starting to grow greener then those around it who where still covered in dying or newly blooming flowers. Soifon stood under it, a hand on the bark and a lost look on her face, the back of her uniform was nonexistent and she had short hair. "Hello Kayce, I like it that you have taken a liking in the special forces, we have so few in our ranks." I tilted my head and nodded it slightly when she would not go on. "What made you join us instead of the Kidou corps?"
"I suck at Kidou and you have fewer members of the Kidou corps, I don't like big groups." I looked at the ground and slightly dug my foot into the ground. Soifon looked at me with a bit of a frown in the corners of her mouth before crossing her arms. "I see from your grades and the like amongst your teachers is that you have vast amounts of talent.. but you prefer non combative things?" She crossed her arms and looked me over. "I don't like fighting.. Kenpachi tried to break me of it.. but I won't let him."
"Why?"
"I obviously made that wall for a reason.. What happened when I didn't have it I have yet to know but obviously I don't wanna go threw it again." I looked at my feet and twisted my hands in my top sleeves slightly, I hated talking about my hated desire to fight. "But your brother Cory, was it? Is an excellent fighter.."
"SHUT UP!" I had a deep hatred for how my brother did things, I found him disgusting at times but my bonds of family where forged so deep that I found it nearly impossible to turn my back on him. Soifon glared at me and I glared at her right back. "HOW DARE YOU COMPARE ME TO MY BROTHER! I will NEVER be him! He has no love for anyone but himself and rarely for himself.." I spat on the ground and Soifon stopped glaring. "How do you even know of my brother?"
"His powers where registered at his birth but your father protected him against us.. You came along and the moment to pick you up and train you was emenent so we took you instead of your brother."
"You ever touch my brother, my family, my friends.. I'll bring soul society crashing down around your fucking ears Soifon." The wind in the area started to kick up leaves, blossoms and flap the clothes on people, it was like it responded to my temper, yes I was angry outwardly but deep inside of me was a knot of deadly calm that told me if I just gave it a chance it could do everything I wanted, I dreamed of. I wanted my dreams and wants to become real someday but not at the price of loosing control of some part of me. Soifon glared at me, and pointed a finger at me, "If you can't keep your temper then you have no place in the Special forces."
"My temper IS under control Soifon, you're not dead yet so that's a VERY good indication that my TEMPER is just fine."Soifon said no more and dismissed me, I left with nothing more to say to the woman.
Leaning back against my bed I scribbled a picture of randomness onto some paper before me. I should of been doing homework, training or doing something constructive but right now all I wanted was to be alone and away from anyone and everything. Sighing loudly I let my pencil fall from my hands, what was I going to do? If I stayed here, the wall I had made would break, I couldn't stay and not fight. Putting my head in my hands I growled and doubled over my head to the floor. The door to my shared room pushed open with a clatter, I masked my confusion and prone position with reaching for my pencil. "I heard about your spat with Soifon, Kayce." Damn it, it was Yamamoto, he'd probably be repraminding toward me like any old leading man would be. I watched him come closer to me before he sat down with a soft thud, his cane going into a his lap. Did that mean he was not safe feeling in my room? Sitting up and going back to fiddling with my pencil I gave him a shrug as an answer. "You must speak Kayce, I do not read minds."
"Yeah, I got into a argument with Soifon."
"Why?"
"She talked about my brother, I hate being compared to him.."
"That was no reason to shout at her."
"I.. I'm not sorry for what I did, I'm not going to apologize for it either." Yamamoto frowned slightly as I stared at the floor, I didn't have the guts to look at someone I was disappointing, I was a damn people pleaser. I'd probably get in trouble for this, given some kind of stupid duty or made to apologize but all Yamamoto did was sigh softly and leaned forward before putting a hand on my head and asking to be helped up. I helped him up and walked him to the door. Once he was gone I tossed my pencil clean across the room and embedded it into the wall. "Fuck this place." I growled before going to sleep in my clothes. I didn't wake up when Shuuhei brought Kaydin back, I didn't wake up when they laughed too loud over some kind of joke and I didn't wake up for anything. But I did wake up when someone touched my shoulder, jerking awake I opened my eyes to stare up at some figure with a mask. "Kayce." It said a hoarse but understandable voice. "Who....?" The figured leaned forward and put a hand over my mouth. "Don't talk, please come with me." I pushed my blankets up and off my body before following the swaying lanky figure, wow they must of gotten fucking wasted. down the hall, threw Yamamoto's office and into the dimly lit halls. white robes? Who in this place wore white robes? Out into the moonlit outdoors the person lead me and when they turned the mask was more illuminated by the moon, why would you wear a hollow mask? "I've undergone Shinigamification, it's a pain the ass but I assume you have too."
"Are you calling me a Hollow?"
"You are a Hollow girl! You wreak of shinigami but you are a hollow!" My jaw dropped as I looked at this guy, he was calling me a Hollow AND telling me I stunk like one too! "Who the hell do you think you are to tell me I STINK like a Hollow!?" I nearly shouted and the man covered my mouth with a hiss. "Yes you're a Hollow! You can leave with me tonight if you want sister! You'd be the greatest of us, you're power is so immense, I'm jealous and I'm a greater Hollow!" the man scooped me up into a hug, and spun around like me being the greatest could do anything for him. "You have her?" Came a voice behind me as the Hollow holding me stopped and let me go. "Ye... yes sir."
"Good." I spun around and looked at a scrawny man with a huge grin on his face and squinty eyes. "You're the hollow, human, shinigami." He smiled at me and I stared at him. Hollow, human shinigami.. wow I was a mutt, I already knew that! He leaned forward and eyed me over, "Your wall is nearly half broken." He smiled before stepping out of the way of a man who was nearly twice his size who wore a Hollow mask, his fist drove right into my stomach and knocked me back. God that hurt, hands clenching the big fist I leaned over it gasping for the air that refused to fill my lungs.. hands went over my nose and mouth, cutting off my air. Tears sprung up in my eyes, I didn't want to die. The more I struggled the more they held me and the less air I had but it was primal I had to live. "I'm sorry." The bouncy man said as blackness started to flick into my eyesight. I tried to sob but I could make no noise with their hands over my mouth and slowly I desended into darkness with only a prayer that they would let me breath once I was unconscious.
