Seeing Double
A/N: Okay I admit, I got lazy recently. SORRY! D:
But I will try to do better and have more original scenes for Yoru and his Hollow side. And POSSIBLY I may have music that goes through my head put into the stories for the fight scenes to give you guys a little bit more of a First Person viewpoint. :D
PLEASE REVIEW!
We get to Orihime's door again. The lights were out. I ditched my body back at my house because it would be easier to get around in. Ichigo was about to knock when a bright light illuminated the sky.
"What the hell is that?" I say. It seemed bad.
"Should I pick the lock again?" Uryū suggests.
"There's not enough time for that!" Ichigo replies. "Come on Chad, bust this door down!"
Which he was about to, with his foot picked up, and then the door swung open. Orihime was RIGHT there. But I didn't think it was her…
"What's up guys?" She says, her voice sounded the same. But her spiritual pressure…it felt odd. Even though she was in her body, I could still sense it…how, I didn't know or care.
"Where are they?" I say. I want to bust some heads together.
"Where's who?"
"The kidnappers..?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You were kidnapped yesterday." Uryū says.
"No I wasn't. All I remember is that we started school and Tatsuki and I had some ice cream that gave us headaches after eating it too fast, and I had some tea and then you guys showed up."
"She lost her memory too. She lost a day." Uryū states.
Too suspicious… I keep my hand on my Zanpakutō, to be safe.
"Yoru, why are you so tense?" Ichigo asks. He knows me like the back of his hand.
"Who said I was tense?"
"Your Zanpakutō is partly drawn."
"Oh, it is? Didn't notice." I slide it back in. But keep my hand on it. And I could have sworn that Orihime noticed and gave me a look that was not from her eyes. This is NOT Orihime. I just have to wait for the right moment, and then I'll pin whoever it is down.
"So, you guys want to come in?" She, or he, asks. And we enter to her kitchen area. The group sat down. I stay standing and start to sharpen my Zanpakutō with a sharpener that I had on me at the time. Apparently that imposter knew that I knew.
"Yoru, that sword is so sharp it could cut me by me looking at it. You can put it away now. Relax." Ichigo insists. And I put the sharpener away. But I keep the sword drawn, to polish it up. It was looking grimy. And then the lights went out, and the next thing I saw was Orihime was strangling Chad in a chokehold.
"Ugh, let go..! Orihime..!" He said, with the little breath he may have had. And that's when I put my Zanpakutō at her throat, being careful not to harm her captive.
"Yoru, what are you doing? That's still Orihime's body there possessing!" Uryū yells.
"No it's not." I turn my blade so only the side could be into her neck. "Now, get off!" I pulled the blade away from Chad as hard as I could and just managed to throw this person off. Chad coughed to catch his breath.
"Thanks…" He managed to say. And then he hit the floor due to lack of oxygen. I guess I should have got her off and said my opinion later.
I took a look at the person, now standing, and rubbing their neck a little, and then slowly showing his true form. He was in some kind of suit, yellow hair on one side, what appeared to be a top hat, and glasses, along with a sinister looking smile. "It seems that you knew I was an imposter all along. How was that possible?"
"Your spiritual pressure was different from Orihime's. It was simple."
"Well, I'm actually impressed. My name is Kurōdo and I have been looking forward to this for some time. And there's someone else…" He looked up at the roof, and I sensed a different spiritual pressure. He seemed to just float down from the ceiling from what appeared to be some sort of warp hole. He had some sort of ninja garment on, along with a shield on his back.
"Pleased to meet you." He said.
"Renji!" Ichigo says, FINALLY, and they both draw their swords. They simply give a chuckle as a red light pours through the window. Kurōdo put his hand on Chad.
"We'll be taking this one with us."
"I don't think so! Flare, Shikoku No Kaen!" I scraped my sword on the wall to my side as it burns to life. They disappear outside. I start to charge my darkness element to make tendrils like I did before at times to try and get Chad back. Wherever he may be, I can't see him through that light at this angle. I move closer to the window and see him getting sucked into those gates that Orihime went though. I give a yell and send tendrils out of the tip of my blade in an attempt to grab him. I come close and that guy with the ninja suit gets in the way.
"Not this time." He says, as a warp hole opens up and my tendrils get sucked in. And a similar one opened up behind me, and well, you could guess I was bound by my own attack.
"Damn it!" I shout. Then I feel the strangest spiritual pressure. It felt like mine, but twisted…
Oh shit, not THIS again… I can even feel the mask forming… And my other took a vibrating breath as he took control.
"My, my, aren't you in a tight spot. No matter…because I'm sure not!" He busts the tendrils with the strength of his arms. And by that time, Chad was already gone. My other noticed them all on the top of the gate, even the one with the squeaky voice, which was a little girl with some sort of cape that the front looked somewhat like a crow's head and short blonde hair.
"Well, aren't you the temperamental one!" The girl says. My other took our body and sprinted behind her in a split second, sword in hand.
"Shut up!" He shouts, and takes a swing with all the strength he had. All I know is that that gate was DEFINITELY broken. Somehow, the mask was broken too, and I was on the roof with Ichigo and Renji. But I was wrong before…the gate wasn't even damaged!
"Let's just pretend that little upset didn't happen, shall we?" The girl said again, still sitting in the same dang spot like nothing happened. Everything went mute to me as Ichigo and Renji go and make their attacks. Why? I don't get it! It's like I'm invisible to them! The group leaves as the gate disappears and we stand in awe for a second. I climb through the window again, getting the sheath for my sword which I accidentally dropped.
"That was pretty impressive, the way you knew he was posing as Orihime and not simply taking her body over. You seem to be quick at resolving things." Uryū, wait, he COMPLIMENTED me?
"Thanks. But now what?"
"Most likely to Urahara's place."
"Good, I should keep my body there. I'll see you all in a few minutes." And I use Flash Step to get back to my room to pick up and deliver my body at Urahara's.
Looks like this will get pretty tricky.
I showed up to the shop first. Kisuke and Tessai were drinking tea. They must really like it, I usually see them drinking tea recently.
"Oh, look who it is. I take it you want your body to be staying with us for the time being?" Kisuke says, sipping more tea.
"If at all possible, yes." I respond.
"All right then. It'll be in good hands here, don't worry about it."
"Where should I put it?"
"Just put it in that room behind me; I'll find a better place for it after I finish my tea."
"Very well." I put it in the small room. The two shopkeepers take another sip of their tea, and about two seconds later, Ichigo and everyone else came through the sliding door to the right. As Ichigo entered, he kicked Kon out of his body and shoved him back into that stuffed animal.
"Hey, what did you have to do THAT for?" Kon said, disgusted.
"Hey, I need a favor." Ichigo said, ignoring the crazy cotton-filled companion.
"Let me guess, watch your body? Yoru here already took the liberty of asking that. Just put yours next to his for now."
"Oh, thanks." He did as suggested.
"So, why the body storage rush?"
"Now Chad has been kidnapped too." Ichigo replied without hesitation. "It looks like there trying to pick us off one by one, so it's not going to be a good idea to have my body lying around unoccupied."
"Fine, then what am I supposed to do?" Kon jumped into the conversation.
"You're going to stick with me."
"Oh, so you finally acknowledge my abilities? Well now I don't know if I feel like helping you or not…"
As the argument continued, Tessai moved our bodies into the back storage room. I kind of tuned it out to think things over. Even for Kisuke, he seems a little bit TOO calm. I doubt that he has anything to do with this…as of now.
"Damn, how are we supposed to get to those guys? All my attacks were completely useless!" Renji said, zapping me out of my little trance.
"Just charging at them didn't work, so we should try a different strategy…" Uryū jumps in.
"How? They got us up against a wall here, it's not like we can sneak up on them." I say.
"Urahara, were you able to find out anything about the telephone call?"
"I was hoping to get a Raemon, which is the spirit equivalent of a fingerprint. But I didn't come up with anything."
"So what does that mean?"
"Who knows? Hard to tell. But by the looks of it, it seems like we're not dealing with Hollows or Soul Reapers here."
Wait a second…now that I think about it, that guy's spiritual pressure did feel a lot like Kon's…And we got Kon from…KISUKE! But I'm not sure…there could be other possibilities that I don't know about yet. I need more information before I can make a clear accusation.
Looks like I missed part of the conversation.
"Uryū, you're going to have to take those guys out with your Quincy powers." Ichigo said.
"I kind of figured you would come up with that conclusion."
"They took Orihime and Chad first, knowing that they would be the easiest to take out. It's clear now that we face an intelligent enemy."
"Yeah, like they know all about us…" I say. What? I had to at least get PART of my idea out.
And then the phone rang.
"Thank you for calling Urahara Shop, what can I do for you?" Kisuke answered it. And handed it to Ichigo. He talked for a minute, trying to get them to see if their captives were okay. But it was no good.
"Now they want us to go to the museum." He said
"Well, I'll meet you guys there. Might as well stake it out. Could be a trap to get another one of us." I say, and grab my Zanpakutō's hilt.
"I don't suggest"-
"He can handle it." Ichigo said, interrupting Uryū. "It may be best to have a scout on this one."
And on that note I head out to the museum. This won't take too long.
