Chapter Two

Moriko and Toushirou stepped into his office. Rangiku was sitting in the far left corner doing paper work. "Hello you two!" Said Rangiku cheerfully.

"Hello." The two said simultaneously, they looked at each other and the three laughed. Just when the laughter stopped, all three of their Shinigami cellular phones began to ring. Toushirou flipped his open and read what the mission was.

"There is a hollow attack in the world of the living. It's a Grand Fisher." Toushirou informed. Moriko looked at Rangiku and nodded. The three stormed out of the office and ran outside. Toushirou opened the Senkaimon to the world of the living and the three plus five other men stepped in.

"Moriko-Chan." Toushirou began. "I want you to inform Ichigo and Rukia we'll be there in a moment." Moriko nodded and pulled out her Shinigami cellular phones, and tried to contact Rukia.

"Hello?!" Rukia said frantically.

"Rukia! It's Moriko we'll be there momentarily!" Moriko said quickly.

"Alright." And it was then when the Senkaimon opened to the world of the living. Karakura town was where everything happened most of the time.

The three of them plus the five men stared in the distance, looking for the Grand Fisher. The reiatsu pushed Moriko down to her knees. She tried her hardest to stand up. Once she stood up the, an ear-piercing scream came from the east. Everyone turned their heads to see the Grand Fisher, plus many other hollows. Moriko saw Ichigo attacking the hollows, while Chad, and Uryuu attacking other hollows.

"Alright lets go!" Rangiku commanded. The five men ran over to the hollows, while Rangiku, Toushirou, and Moriko went towards the Grand Fisher.

Rangiku went first. She took her zanpactou out of the sheath and yelled out.

"Hai Neko!" A grayish puff of mist came from the handle of Rangiku's zanpactou. She went for the attack. The Grand Fisher hadn't notice until she had struck. Rangiku had pierced the skin but the Grand Fisher swatted her away like a fly.

"Rangiku!" Moriko yelled out. She tried to help, but Toushirou grabbed her by the shoulder.

"She's fine. It's your turn now. Go!" He shouted at her. Moriko jumped, pulling her zanpactou from its sheath.

"Kashou Burakku Kasai!" Moriko yelled out. She closed her eyes, then reopened them, going from light orange to blood red. The end of her hair the same color of her eyes. Her zanpactou a thin blood red katana, burns whatever it touches.

"Die you beast!" Moriko yelled out cutting down the dark arm of the foul beast. The arm of the Grand Fisher had fell off, melting away. The Grand Fisher cried out and swatted towards Moriko with its other arm. Moriko shielded herself with her zanpactou, burning into Grand Fisher's palm. Moriko pulled away and sliced at its fingers. Cutting away three of the four. It was then Moriko was hit away into the deep forest. She landed abruptly onto her back, her hair back to it's normal black.

......................

"Moriko-Chan!" Yelled out Toushirou. He heard no reply. Toushirou pulled his zanpactou out from it's sheath. Using shunpo Toushirou jumped into the air yelling out:

"Souten ni Zase!" A enormous ice dragon emerged from the halt of Toushirou's zanpactou. It sliced down the middle of the Grand Fisher, the other side peeling away. Grand Fisher screamed, slowly disappearing. Rangiku came back standing next to Toushirou.

"Where's Moriko-Chan?!" She asked. Toushirou was silent for a moment.

"Tell everyone to go back to the soul society. I'll go find her." Toushirou said. Rangiku nodded and went down to where the others were. Toushirou hopped down to the forest, looking around.

"Moriko? Moriko are you here?" Toushirou called out.

......................

Once Moriko fell onto the hard ground, she fainted. When she awoken she felt a sharp pain in her left arm and leg. Moriko screamed at the pain. She had broke her arm and had a terribly large cut down her calf.

Toushirou heard the scream from the south and ran towards it. He saw Moriko on the ground, blood everywhere.

"Moriko!" He exclaimed. Toushirou ran to her side, she opened one eye.

"Captain......is..it dead?" She whispered, fringing at the pain. Toushirou nodded. He put his arms under her back and under her knees. He lift her gently also grabbing her zanpactou. Moriko couldn't keep her eyes open long enough to see where they were going. Once again she had fainted from the loss of blood.

"Damn. Moriko-Chan! Wake up. We'll be there soon." He said as the Senkaimon opened. The doors opened to the doors of squad four's medical hall. Toushirou rushed into the hall and went on a search for captain four, Captain Unohana. Toushirou ran in front of a nurse, asking where Unohana was. She pointed at the room down the hall. Toushirou ran to the room and kicked the door open. Unohana looked up.

"Retsu! Please help it's Moriko ! It was the Grand Fishe-" He was cut off.

"I'll get right to it."

And it was then Toushirou watched from the side lines that they healed the cut, and the cracked bone. It was only a hair-line fracture, so it wasn't that hard to heal. Once they finished healing Moriko, Toushirou was aloud to go in. He sat on a small stool, staring at her face waiting for her to wake up. Moriko's eyes opened, she felt better just weak.

"Moriko." Toushirou said softly.

"Captain!" She said getting up. Moriko's arm struck a pain to her body, she grabbed it with her left arm. She yelled out in pain. Toushirou grabbed her by the shoulders and laid her back down.

"You shouldn't move to much you'll open up the wound." He said mockingly. They both laughed.

"I guess we're evening now, aren't we?" He asked Moriko. She giggled and nodded.

"I saved you, and you saved me." She said. He nodded and they laughed again. Moriko sighed,

"Does this mean I don't have to get Momo's dinner?" Moriko asked with puppy eyes. Toushirou laughed, "I guess not." He smiled. On the inside Moriko was cheering her butt off.

The two spent hours talking, till it was about eleven o' clock according to the world of the living. Right when they had finished talking, a nurse came into Moriko's room and told Toushirou he had to leave.

"I'm a Captain. I should stay as long as I want." He demaned. The nurse flinched.

"Captain Unohana told me Moriko-Chan has to rest." She said quietly.

"But I want Captain Hitsugaya to stay.." Moriko said.

"Evening Moriko-Chan wants me to stay."

"Can't I leave the infirmary now? I feel better." Moriko asked. The nurse thought about it.

"How long have you been staying here." Toushirou and Moriko looked at each other. Moriko shrugged.

"About seven hours? Eight maybe."

"The required amount of time is six hours so I guess you can go." She said stepping out of the room leaving Toushirou and Moriko alone once again.

"Do you want me to help?" Toushirou asked.

"That depends if I can stand up.." Moriko said pulling the blanket away from her legs. She set her right leg down first then her left. Moriko tried to stand but fell. Toushirou caught her, their faces inches away from each other. Moriko blushed, and Toushirou looked away. They were both beet red, and froze in that position for a few minutes.

"S-should I carry you back to y-your room?" He asked closing his eyes. Moriko blushed again, going a darker shade of red.

"S-sure."

Toushirou walked down the hall with Moriko in his arms, both of them as red as apples. Once they got to Moriko's room, Toushirou pushed the door open with his back and stepped in. He set Moriko on her bed and lit a few candles.

"I'm going to be here if you need anything." He said. Moriko smiled.

"You don't need to stay here with me Captain. Go back to your room and sleep." She insisted.

"Well I'm your captain and I can stay whether you like it or not." He smirked.

"Well I'm the lady here, and I should get what I want." She snapped back.

"Then I order you to let me stay here with you.." Moriko didn't know what to say, it was an order.

"Well......." Moriko paused.

"Ha! You don't know what to say." He said, smiling. They both laughed for a period of time.

"I guess you can stay then." Moriko said with a warming smile. She thought about it for a moment.

"Are you just gonna be a freak and stare at me all night?" She asked, her head cocked to the side.

"No. I'm going to sleep too. Whenever you need something just say something and I'll wake up." Toushirou said. Moriko smiled and laid her head down. She thought about what happened today. Well she woke up, took a bath, then went on a mission, got injured, was in the infirmary, and was carried by her captain to her room, and now he is here with her in her room alone.

"Captain..." She whispered.

"Hmm?"

"I can't sleep.." She said.

"Neither can I."

"There's a noise outside."

"I know." Moriko struggled to get up, Toushirou there aiding her. The both walked to the wall and put their ears against it. Heavy foot steps bounced on the concrete flooring..

"A hollow?" Moriko asked quietly.

"Maybe.." Toushirou got up.

"I'm going outside to check..Stay right here." He said. Right when Toushirou was heading for the door, Moriko grabbed his pant leg.

"Please don't leave me." Moriko said getting up. She stood up moaning in pain. Toushirou

slung her arm around his neck and set her down onto her bedding.

"I'll be quick. I'll get Rangiku to watch you.." He said. Moriko nodded, sitting in the silence that was. Then Rangiku stepped. She was wearing an all black kimono, and her hair was a bit messy.

"Good Morning...." Rangiku said monotone. Moriko lightly smiled.

"I'm sorry I woke you up so early.." Moriko apologized.

"It's alright. I heard the noises outside too." Moriko nodded.

"So what were you and Captain doing alone in a room, when everyone was a sleep..?" Rangiku teased. Moriko blushed.

"N-nothing.." She stuttered.

"Oh Come on. You can tell me!" She joked.

"We did nothing. H-he just carried me back to my room and volunteered to stay with me.

"Right.." Rangiku said smirking. And it was just then the two young women heard a blood curdling scream. The call of the hollow.

"Captain!"

And so forth the blood will spill once again.
