The shinigami glanced around as the pokemon settled, the machine no longer transmitting so many cruel images and memories they no longer felt thier pain intensified but were still prone to agression a having been attacked by the shinigami. it was official pokemon were as powerful as standard shinigami some as powerful as captains and others were as strong as a whole squad of captains bu those like the horrendous monster they had just faced seemed to have been taken with him. xavi...who was he?

Some pokemon fled and ran into the rukongai to chase them would just ensure needless injuries. The sound of a loud electric zap sounded many resting shinigami were startled and stood up even some with wounds being healed and bandaged. They looked to where it came from, a lone shinigami was holding up a white ball capsule with a red cover. a brown chicken-sized bird screeched and glowed the rookie looked scared, it was starting up a Tackle attack, similar to a bala surrounding thier whole body and bieng rammed into you.
But as it charged the ball flashed red and from the black whole on the top clicked open and a red lightining bolt crashed into it, the red glowing faded away to quickly show a small golden rat.

The flustered shinigami tried slashing at the bird. It ruffled a fiew feathers but it's hierro held tightly. A few others told him to run '' I just need to get through it'ls hierro!'' they gaped, hadn't he been fighting these things too?!

''Ratta!Rattatak!'' The Rattatak* hissed at it it's tail glowing green as did it's opponent who tried to Tackle it once more.

The shinigami sliced as Ichigo and the captains approached these things were small and hostile thanks to that Shinigami, they appeared be unable to trust people anymore. But this time it cried in pain a few dozen heads looked up surprised. ''Woah thanks there little guy! You sure are helpful!'' He as just relieved he had a fighting chance.

The bird shrieked loudly at him sending the air rushing from it's mouth red and blurry ''Pidge!''. Ichigo held them back and they stared at him confused but understood as the shinigami teetered and tottered dizzily.

''M-my reiatsu just dropped!'' He cried, nothing was going to go his way was it!? ''Rattatak! Use um...That Tail Attack!''

The Rattatak waved it's tail at the Pidge and hissed. The shinigami attacked again and managed to wound it the bird flew off squaking, apparenty it didn't deal well with near loss. ''Wait! I Need To Kill You!'' He cried, apparently he wasn't the clearest lake in the valley.

The captains approached slowly. So apparently it was listening to him now? '' I like you! You helped me out and you got a weird name! I do too, it's Dane! Dayne can you say Dayne?''

''Rattra-?'' It yipped.

''Okay good! I'll take that as Dane! I'll call you Shade okay-? Cause your a weird shade compared to the other Rattataks lil'dude...You are a dude, right?'' He cuddled the small golden rat which purred openly. It was more of a foot tall mouse-kitten than a rat. The captains walked away, theman was pratically a kitten himself, but at least they understood some thing they murmured to eachother, the pokemon appeared immune to the signal when captured.

''Why do you trust that vermin?'' One of the higher ups questioned. There were so many wounded it was safer to rest here than trek back, they in no way trusted those things. It even hissed at him!

''Hey you hurt her feelings!''

''her?'' was this man crazy? These were just mere monsters they didn't have-

''Uh, yeah her. She has these itty-bitty whiskers-see, so she has to be female! All the others had longer ones yuh-know?'' so the bucket was half-full!''

''It does not matter! She could prove to be dangerous or a liability she-''

''Well she was certainly more useful than you were...''he mumbled.

The man bristled how dare he insult him! ''You have been trouble from day one! I can't believe one as immature as you would dare insult me!''He turned and left the man, he had better not show hind or tail of himself later on! Such insultive lower shinigami!

The brunette watched him go with anger '' Well you know what! I-I'm leaving and you can't make me come back!'' He turned and left the mouse trotting at his heels obediently like a cute yellow rabbit moving in a dog-like fashion. The man was furious! He was nineteen! He had just come from school ready to be taught how to be a real shinigami but all that happened was he went from crawling off the beach to splashing in the water. Sure he had moved but seriously!? Almost everyone treated him like an idiot! He kicked a rock, and stared down at his weak looking pale skin, he wasn't pathetic...right?

''Rattra!'' Well he couldn't say she didn't warn him. He bashed his head into a tree...Hard.

He was stunned enough to stop thinking ''Th-thanks Shade..'' He smiled sheepishly, her tackling him had gotten him to stop angsting so much. They weren't vermin, they were people, just like the rest of them.'' Oh, wait!'' He took out something from his pocket he had picked it up along with that red capsule...which he accidently bopped on the head off a golden mouse. It had appeared lonely as the other stared at it suspiciously. He had bent over to pet the poor thing and the capsule had flashed the thing inside. He opened the black box one of the scientist they had led into cusody many crying about thier lost work and bieng comforted by that crazy science captain 'Seriously...?' had dropped. It was a brown package it contained five other pokeballs and a small red box like device which appeared to have the words Pokemon Dictionary or Pokedex, ' probably 'cause pokedic just sounded dumb'. It also had three potions with instructions on the back and two yellow antidotes 'Wow what scientific names! Wonder what they do!?'. It appeared to be an emergency pack. See he didn't need them, he was smart on his own!

Shade stared up at her trainer tackling the other pokemon, would he look where he was going for once!? ''Rattra!'' she yipped, it actually meant 'Dawn' but since her new language was very selective it would do. Plus he was like the dawn! Extremely hazy and not very see-through. You just didn't get him because even though you saw everything it was too dim for you to fully understand.

He whipped his head around in time to see her tackling an odd beige monkey. It apeared to be a small round creature with the limbs and tail of a monkey and the snout of a pig. The same one which had followed them for the last fifteen minutes since they got here. He turned around and threw a pokeball at it.

If Shade could facepalm she would have done so long ago.
