Okay, I admit it. I have absolutely NO EXCUSE for not updating Thursday or last Monday. I'm very very very very very sorry. I hope everybody, including Toshiro-sama, will come to forgive me...
HAVE YOU PPL READ THE NEWEST CHAPTER OF BLEACH?!!! If you haven't I don't want to spoil anything, but OMG I LOVE U TOSHIRO!!! Ahhhh seeing him makes me happy :) But I guess that would b why I write about him, all. The. Time. I love him so much, I wish he was my little brother... Momo doesn't know how lucky she is.
I'm going to continue rambling for another minute if u ppl don't mind... I have officially discovered how absolutely amazing the prismacolor art markers are! I luuvv them now, except the skin color is too dark but I can use colored pencil for that... I guess I should say the reason I haven't updated is because I've been drawing too much, I have a lot of free time and that's all I do lol … I just draw manga manga manga and more manga!
Alright I think I've been going on long enough, and now I'll let u guys read the actual story, unless u r like my twin and only read my author's notes, which are apparently very funny. Ok-ay then... ENJOY THE STORY!!
Far down in the halls of Las Noches, Momo felt herself pushed into the never-changing chambers, the bonds around her falling to the floor. When the heavy door behind her closed, she curled up on the couch in a daze. What she had just witnessed, the thing that had just happened, was too unbelievable.
She shivered as she noticed the tears welling in her eyes. Her friend had just been killed by Toshiro. How could she live with that?
The sound of the opening once more brought Momo around. Wiping the wetness from her eyes, she turned to see Toshiro stumbling in, another arrancar closing the entryway behind him. The shinigami took a few unsteady steps forward, only to collapse. Slowly, Momo walked to him, her emotions so jumbled and confused she was still only dazed.
As she knelt and placed her hand on his shoulder, he breathed unsteadily, whispering her name. Her hand shook uncontrollably, and her eyes sparkled with horror. Every thought that went through her head seemed to be incoherent, except one firm truth.
"You...
...you killed her..."
Toshiro's head rose slightly, looking at his friend in apprehension.
"You...you bastard!! How could you do that to your own lieutenant! I... I...
I HATE YOU!!"
That split second seemed to be the longest in the world to Momo. As the words left her mouth, Toshiro's head jerked up and he looked at her straight in the eye for the first time in a while. Toshiro never showed any emotion other than hatred and anger. That was a fact Momo had begun to understand. But everyone has a limit. There's only so much one can take.
Those teal eyes reflected the most emotion Momo had seen in him in a long time.
That fraction of a moment was already more the she could bear. Pushing Toshiro away, she ran out of the room as fast as she could go.
The door to the separate room slammed behind her as Momo sank to the floor. She clutched her hair and released the tears that had welled up in her eyes. She shivered, not believing anything anymore.
How could I... How could I do that to him? The thoughts swarmed in her head, the hatred she had felt moments ago were gone. After everything that's happened, how could I just make everything even worse like that?
Several minutes passed until Momo got onto her feet again. The sadness from losing Rangiku was still present, but at the moment, she had another friend she had to take care of. The words that had left her mouth earlier, she knew she didn't mean them. It wasn't Toshiro's fault, none of this was his fault. I was Aizen. Everything, everything was because of Aizen.
The door cracked open and Momo looked over at her friend.
"Toshiro?"
Hyourinmaru sat in the ice field that had become home to him, relaxing in his human form on a whim. Icy wind blew threw the plain, brushing against the zanpaktou's skin as another presence entered the world.
The humanoid turned around to see a figure, kneeling on the ground.
"Ma-master?"
The silver haired shinigami didn't answer, his eyes shadowed as he bent his head forward.
Hyourinmaru ran forward and stopped in front of his owner. "Master?"
The sound that came was not in response to him.
"I HATE YOU!!"
It was a girl's voice, and the zanpaktou recognized it as Momo Hinamori.
His surroundings began to rumble, rocks trembling as if an earthquake had begun.
"You bastard! How could you do that?!!"
The voice resounded again and again and the boy didn't move a muscle, remaining completely still.
Hyourinmaru placed his hand on his master's shoulder.
"Toshiro?"
The boy raised his head, and Hyourinmaru backed away as the shinigami released loads of spiritual pressure.
"... I can't... hold on to her... Hyourinmaru... I can't do it..."
"Master?"
A single tremble shook through the boy's body, before he pulled his head back, and screamed. Spiritual pressure flew everywhere, and Hyourinmaru was pushed away forcefully.
The icy plain was blown by the power, and cracks appeared throughout the inner world.
"Master! MASTER, what are you doing!!!??" Hyourinmaru raised his arms just in time against the winds, as blackness rose from the space around the boy.
There was a moment, a tiny second, when Hyourinmaru felt something wet on his hand. He looked down and stared at the clear liquid substance, until he realized what it was.
A single teardrop. It had floated to him from the small body curled in a ball of angst.
"...Master..."
The screaming stopped, and Hyourinmaru blinked in surprise. The boy was gone. Everything was gone. The inner world of Toshiro Hitsugaya had become utter nothingness.
Well I kinda liked that chapter... I hope you guys did too! Poor shiro-chan has completely given up... Momo doesn't deserve him. Can Ichigo-san bring Toshiro back? Or Ichimaru? Or Momo? Or Ukitake? Or SOMEONE ELSE? Who knows?
We get some soul society and some blood next chapter so let's look forward to it!
Also, I'm considering writing a one-shot about when Shiro-chan was little LITTLE but not too little shiro-chan and was actually open about his feelings when the village ppl r mean to him. It wud b extremely fluffy and cute when Momo tries to comfort him!! Look forward to that if I get around to writing it!!
Please oh please REVIEW ME!! I will give u the world! Plz oh plz oh plz oh plz!! u'd make me soo happy!
