Chizuru: I'm scared, I don't want to fight
Ryo: Well, you can just take it like you take Tatsuki's attacks
Tatsuki: If you can live through that, you can live through anything
Chizuru: What does that have to do with anything, it's not like you try to kill me or anything?
Tatsuki: True, but I hit you with enough force that can take out any grown man, so you should be able to take what's coming to you this chapter
Ryo: Sounds like you're finally getting into things
Tatsuki: Shut up, I'm just doing my part for now
Chizuru: Konsu doesn't own Bleach
Ryo: The plot developing in the plot however, he does
"You're glowing Chizuru,"
Tatsuki stares at Chizuru blankly, and then at the shivering and unusually pale Keigo, he mumbling nonsense under his breath.
"It wasn't real, it wasn't real, it wasn't real, it was hot, but it wasn't real,"
The poor boy was scarred for life, and Tatsuki had no idea why. By the way he was sending strange glances at Chizuru, and the way his face would turn five different shades of red whenever she glances at him, she knew the girl was the cause. All of this had to do with her glowing, and quite frankly Tatsuki was interested.
"Am I?" Questions Chizuru innocently. "It's such a wonderful day, I can't help but smile," Chizuru twirls happily. "Maybe you should smile too, I'm sure you'll attract more girls," Tatsuki raises an eyebrow, honestly confused by her words. "Yep," Chizuru stops twirling. "It's always the dense ones who get all the girls, but I won't fall behind, I have two on my team just like you," Chizuru pats Tatsuki's shoulder happily, while throwing a small glance at the stiffening Michiru.
Tatsuki grabs Chizuru's hand tightly, a twitch in her eye. Squeezing it a bit, she earns a small cry from her friend. "Please don't do that, I had a very irritating dream and for some odd reason my body feels like shit," Tatsuki rolls her right arm, still feeling the invisible pain from last night. "Didn't know a dream could feel so real," She mumbles.
A perverse grin spreads across Chizuru's face, and Tatsuki almost misses it. "So, what kind of dream was it, one of those rare BDSM dreams," Tatsuki wanted so badly to hit the girl, but held back, knowing the girl had some kind of strange pleasure from it. So in her better judgment, she thought it was better not to give the masochist what she desired. Tatsuki took her seat and wordlessly brought out her things, preparing for class.
For a reason completely foreign to Chizuru, she felt upset, honestly hurt that Tatsuki would ignore her like that. Before she could say anything about this, Ochi-sensei enters class, her eyes dark.
"Everyone take a seat, now,"
Ochi was strangely serious and professional.
"I will now take roll," Ochi coughs a few times and calls out each student, receiving 'here's and 'present' from each student. Surprisingly every student was in class today, which was good for her. "Open your English textbooks to page sixty and follow along as I read. When I call on you, I want each of you to read the same paragraph I had to the best of your abilities. Now, let's begin,"
All through class, Ochi was strangely like many teachers, boring, serious, and very up-tight. It was a big difference from the loveable, crazy, and very random teacher they've come to love. It was only when Ochi mumbles under her breath about short ugly trolls, the class door suddenly opens, revealing said ugly troll, and they now knew why she was acting so strangely.
There she was, standing in her short and round glory, Tsubaki-sensei. The woman's beady eyes, burn through Ochi-sensei's clearly frighten ones.
"Ochi-sensei," The woman's voice was surprisingly beautiful despite her troll tendencies and appearance. "You will do well not to speak ill of your colleagues, you're already in hot water, don't make your situation any worse," A vein is seen pulsating violently in Ochi's forehead; a strain smile is also seen.
"Tsubaki-sensei, you seem to be mistaken," Ochi's eyebrow twitches slightly. "Your sharp little round puffy ears must have picked up something from down the hall," Ochi gives a nonchalant shrug. "If you did hear me say anything, it was about this ugly little troll in this book here," Lies Ochi. "The author made a really vivid detailing about the thing here, wanna read?" The grin Ochi gave Tsubaki was nothing less than disturbing, and the small teacher takes a step back in fear. "I'll take your word for it Ochi-sensei," Tsubaki straightens out her coat, trying to compose herself. "Just make sure you stick to how you were taught in college, you don't wish to be terminated...do you?" Ochi remains silent, and Tsubaki smirks cruelly as she leaves the class. The door shuts behind her, but Ochi and her students could hear the woman's heavy footsteps echoing down the hall. When the footsteps grew silent, Ochi releases a large sigh.
"Fucking Old Crone is a pain in my ass,"
The class can only watch in silence as the woman rants for ten minutes straight to no one.
"Wow," Chizuru glances at Michiru. "I never seen Ochi-sensei so stressed," The woman was drinking a soda, she panting, trying to control her emotions. "Ah, Tsubaki-sensei isn't one to be trifled with," States Ryo. "I hear she has connections with the School Board, and well," Mumbles Mahana. "More than five teachers this year, two from this school, and three from three different schools was fired because of her," Orihime nods, having heard of this as well.
Tatsuki says the one phrase, which summed up Ochi-sensei's situation.
"So, Ochi-sensei is pretty fucked for screwing up the troll's car,"
Ichigo gives his answer, almost as if he was waiting for it.
"Seems so, almost feel bad for her,"
Ochi, who hears the two, glares darkly at them, she resembling a demon more than an angry teacher.
"You two have detention,"
Ichigo and Tatsuki responses were immediate.
"WHAT?"
XxXxXxXxXx
- After School -
"I kinda feel bad for Tatsuki and Ichigo, they being on the end of sensei's wrath,"
Many grunts of agreements are heard from the girls.
"It's their fault," Shrugs Chizuru adjusting her glasses. "Ochi-sensei looks like she hasn't been laid in quite awhile, and them making such careless comments, must have really set her over the edge,"
The girls didn't know how to take that comment, so they ignore it, much to Chizuru's annoyance.
"Well," Said Mahana spotting Asano and Mizurio walking off. "Looks like my group plans on ditching me again, I'll have to kick their asses later," Mahana grins at her buddies and gives them a wave. "I'll talk to ya later, gotta find out what kind of cake we should be baking," Mahana runs off, dropping a small necklace in her attempt to catch her team, who were running away from the cursing girl.
Michiru lifts the silver necklace. "Mahana you forgot your necklace," Shouts Michiru loudly, but her friend was long gone. "Geez, stuff is always falling from her pockets," A particular incident was when she dropped twenty dollars the other day, which she also picked up. Unlike what she would usually do, she didn't return it; in fact she kept it, and ate great that day.
However this was different. This wasn't money, so she had to return it to her friend. And also, there was something else. "Oh man, Mahana has archery practice today," Michiru dials Mahana's cell number. To her growing irritation, she found the girl had turned off her phone. 'She always does this,' Sighing, she gives Ryo an apologetic smile, knowing the girl wouldn't be too vexed with her. "I'll meet you at Kurosaki-kun's Ryo, I have to remind Mahana about her club's practice in an hour," Ryo nods in understanding, she watching Michiru run off after Mahana and the other two.
Ryo sighs at the predicament she was in. Both members of her team were now out and gone. One was in detention because of their crazed sensei, and the other had run off to chase after a classmate, forgetting about their own project.
'Maybe I should head home; mother did want me to help train the children,'
Ryo nods at this plan, intending on leaving when Chizuru stops her.
"Say Ryo, why don't you come with us to Tatsuki's," Chizuru holds up a key. "Tatsuki lent me her keys, saying we can use her dad's camera for our project, wanna help us out?"
Ryo weighs her options. Help her mother at the dojo or help Chizuru and Rukia with their project.
'Neither really appeals to me at the moment, but I guess if a friend is asking for help, you should help,'
Ryo shrugs and follows after the two, thinking it was better than repeating what she does every single day.
'A change in pace wouldn't be so bad,'
The three makes their way to Tatsuki's home, but Rukia pauses feeling something off. A cold feeling crawl down her spine and for a moment Rukia felt as if someone was watching her.
'Is someone watching me?'
Glancing around nervously, Rukia saw a flash of movement coming from the rooftop of the building to the right. Another cold feeling crawls down her spine, this time not from her awareness, but from fear.
'Is it them?'
Rukia didn't know, but she knew if it was, it would be best not to get those girls involved.
"Sorry," Chizuru and Ryo stops walking to stare at the brightly smiling Rukia. "I seem to have forgotten a task that was asked of me by my mother," Rukia claps her hands together, her fingers intertwining. "Please forgive me, but I must go," Chizuru opens her mouth to say something, but Rukia runs off before she could.
Huffing in annoyance, Chizuru places her hands on her hips. "Rukia's emotions flips more than a damn light switch," Ryo grunts and glances at the building Rukia had moments before. "What is it?" Ryo glances at Chizuru, and then at the building once more.
"Nothing, we should get going?"
Ryo walks off once more.
"But what are we suppose to do? We're both down two partners?"
Ryo answers without stopping, forcing Chizuru to catch up.
"We'll just have to work together then," Ryo eyes Chizuru. "You'll help me out with my project, and I'll film you," Seeing the blush rising appearing on her friend's face, Ryo resists the urge to groan. "No you perverted fool, did you forget your purpose for going to Tatsuki's?" Chizuru blinks owlishly, and this time Ryo really does groan.
'What was the point in going to Tatsuki's then? Was she planning something again?'
Knowing Chizuru anything was possible, so Ryo sighs, and glares at the sky.
XxXxXxXxXx
"What a disturbance that was last night,"
"Did anything out of the ordinary happen?"
"Not if you don't count that Inoue-girl's soul being thrown out her body,"
A familiar blonde-haired man and a cat sit on a building, watching the panic Rukia head for the Kurosaki Household.
"You really startled her Yoruichi; you have to be more careful old friend,"
The cat's eye glow darkly.
"Hmph, the girl is foolish giving her powers to a human, she could have killed the hollow easily, truly pathetic," Yoruichi yawns and lowers its head in distain. "What inexperience, do they really let children like her out of the Academy?" Urahara laughs a bit.
"Well, from what I hear, she's been under Byakuya-taicho's constant watch," Yoruichi hums a bit. "She hasn't been able to take any real missions until now," Urahara suddenly stands. "And with her current body, she can't really do anything," Yoruichi eyes Urahara curiously as he digs in his pocket.
"What are you doing Kisuke?" The cat's question was answered when she saw Urahara draw out two silver rings. "What are those?" She knew Kisuke long enough to know when he was planning something, and she knew without a doubt those rings were special.
Urahara smirks and answers. "Nothing really, just a little tool to help my powerless shinigami friend along," Urahara chuckles a bit. "I mean, this is the least I can do for her after giving her that little gigai of mine," Urahara's grin becomes a bit dark. "Plus, the sooner she learns how to control these rings, the sooner I can start the games," Yoruichi sits up at the word games.
"What games?"
Urahara only chuckles and walks away.
"Who do you think you're ignoring?"
Yoruichi chases after Urahara, he vanishing via shunpo, and she vanishes also, giving chase to the irritating man.
XxXxXxXxXx
- The Urahara Shop -
- Midnight -
"What's the big idea calling me here at this time of night Urahara?"
Rukia glares at the widely grinning man. The guy always gave off a terrifying vibe, causing shivers to run up and down her spine whenever she was around him. The shop owner was truly a mysterious and frightening man. True she didn't know much about him, but he did supply her with the gigai when she was in need, so he was alright in her book, if only a bit.
"I have a gift for you Kuchiki-san,"
Urahara pulls out two silver rings from his pocket.
"They're special rings, made just for you,"
Urahara hands the rings to Rukia. The girl stares at them curiously, wondering what were so special about the plain looking rings.
"Um, what's so damn special about them?"
Rukia honestly couldn't tell what was so special about the ring. Staring at them closely, Rukia gasps and smiles brightly.
"That's it, you're amazing Urahara," Shouts Rukia.
"I am aren't I?" Laughs Urahara.
"You are, you are," Rukia points to rings. "You've engraved Chappy in the rings, so wonderful," Urahara's laughter dies at the shout.
"Eh?" Urahara peers down at the ring, ignoring the happily blushing Rukia, and saw that she was right, there was the silly little rabbit engraved in the ring. 'I didn't put that there,' Feeling someone's anxious eyes on him, Urahara slowly glances at the door to the right, outside Rukia's view, to see Ururu. The girl was shifting nervously, staring at him hopefully, as if asking for his approval. Urahara smiles at the girl and gives her a thumb up, earning a delightful smile from her. Ururu bows and skips off happily, amusing the small time candy shop owner.
Turning his attention back to Rukia, Urahara sweatdrops seeing her still praising his Chappy work, and he sighs.
"Um, Kuchiki-san, not trying to rain on your Chappy Parade, but that's not what so special about these rings?"
Rukia's head snaps at him at this statement, and stares at him, not believing the garbage he said.
"You lie, Chappy is, Chappy is what makes the rings so special,"
Realizing she was going into Super Chappy Mode, Rukia takes a deep breath to calm her boiling emotions. Coughing a bit, she stares at Urahara, serious once more.
"So, what other specialties do these rings have?"
Urahara's sweatdrop grows at how quickly her Modes flipped, but nods, grinning once more.
"Trust me, in the state you're in now, these rings will become your greatest weapons,"
XxXxXxXxXx
- The Next Day -
"Damn that gorilla, having me fetch her food, I'm nobodies dog,"
Chizuru huffs angrily, not liking that Tatsuki is using her like some mule.
"I'm not a gopher, fucking gorilla, I'll kick her ass just watch," Chizuru suddenly smiles a perverse grin. "Speaking of ass, her ass has become a bit bigger and firmer," Chizuru giggles like crazy. "Those thighs of hers have also become sexier, maybe I should make a move, no, no, she'll me, I know she will," Chizuru suddenly sighs. "How can such a dense girl have beauties like Orihime and Rukia after her? Geez, I guess it's true, all the dense people do get all the girls,"
Chizuru sighs once more, but topples over as a powerful explosion shakes the ground.
"Ouch, that really smarts,"
Returning to her feet, Chizuru rubs her butt, wondering what the hell happened, when she hears screaming from above. Glancing up, she saw a familiar figure falling fast from above.
"Ehhhhh?"
Bang
"Damn, does the ground love me or something?"
Chizuru glares at the girl who made her meet the cement once more, but she blushes instead. A nice round ass in white panties, with a cute pink bunny on them was inches from her face. If she didn't know who the person was, she would have thought the offender was a child, but it wasn't, so this was fair game. Forgetting all about her anger, Chizuru giggles and grabs it roughly.
"Hey, cut that out!"
Chizuru ignores the shout, she playing with the girl's butt, a bit blood leaking from her nose.
"I said,"
Chizuru removes one hand about to touch the girl's precious area when a foot connects with her face, sending her skidding across the ground.
"Cut that out,"
Rukia rolls to her feet, glaring at Chizuru angrily, face imitating a tomato. The psycho classmate of hers groans painfully, slowly rising to her feet once more, she rubs her aching face.
"What a kick that almost felt like one of Tatsuki's," Chizuru gives Rukia a large grin and a thumb up. "Nice kick partner, but the feel of your ass was wonderful," Rukia bristles at the comment and now realizes why Tatsuki hits the girl on a daily basis. "But seriously Rukia-chan, why did you fall out the sky like that?" Rukia freezes at the question and then stiffens hearing a roar.
Chizuru also heard the roar, and a hollow pressure crushes down on her. Trembling uncontrollably, Chizuru's pupils suddenly shrink, and she glares in the sky to see some kind of bat monster floating above them. Something stirs within Chizuru, something she couldn't quite explain, but an urge she always felt when facing danger awakens.
Survive
The command was simple, and yet it wasn't.
Survive
"What...is that thing?" She finally gasps out.
The question shocks Rukia, and she casts Chizuru a small glance.
"A hollow," Rukia answers lowly.
This was no time for stupid questions such as you can see it or what. The sight of Sado punching the hollow earlier still plays repeatedly in her mind.
"Hollow...so...it's dangerous?" Deadpans Chizuru, her shaking coming to a stop and she takes a step back.
"Very dangerous, especially to humans such as yourself with high spiritual powers,"
Chizuru didn't have time to be shock, because at that moment, the hollow roars down at them, no, at Rukia. For her part, Rukia only glares at the thing and then at the two rings on her right hand.
'These things, how am I supposed to use them without the damn things blowing up in my face? Kido don't blow up in my face, I'm not Renji,'
Leeches suddenly shoots at Rukia and Chizuru from all directions. Rukia curses and holds out her hands, she standing in front of Chizuru protectively.
"Bakudo 39: Enkosen!" Cries Rukia desperately.
The ring on Rukia's middle finger flares to life, but as it does, the ring on her index finger bursts to life, disrupting the flow of energy in the other ring. Instead of a shield like Rukia hoped would form, an explosion does, sending her and Chizuru crashing through the wall behind them.
"Shit,"
Rukia slides across the ground, she groaning painfully. There was a gash running down her right arm, and the wounds she somehow managed to close earlier were open again, they bleeding fiercely.
"Ouch, what was that explosion all about Rukia-chan?"
To Rukia's astonishment, Chizuru didn't have a scratch on her body. The girl's glasses were broken, and her clothes were a bit worn, but she was unharmed, not a single burnt mark from the explosion from the stupid rings was seen. Chizuru groans and takes off her glasses, revealing her shrunken pupils to the shinigami.
'Huh, what's up with her eyes?'
No, that wasn't what Rukia should be really questioning at the moment. No, what she should be questioning is the strange spiritual pressure the girl was releasing. It was thick, but not powerful. It wasn't the spiritual pressure of a shinigami or a hollow or not even that of a human, it was different, much different.
"Little Shinigami, are you finish with your little fireworks,"
Chizuru and Rukia stiffens at the voice, the two didn't turn knowing the hollow was standing in the tree behind them. Casting the other a glance, they nod in understanding and make a run for it; the hollow grins, always enjoying a nice chase.
"Run little kittens, because once I catch you, you're all mine,"
The hollow, Shrieker, licks its lips and laughs maliciously.
"Such delicious prey, a shinigami and a unknown, that little boy gathered such tasty meals this time around,"
Shrieker laughs and flies off to catch his meals. Watching from a distance was Urahara and Yoruichi for different reasons. For Urahara it was to see his rings in action, and for Yoruichi it was to see the strengths of Ichigo, Rukia, and surprisingly Chizuru.
'That girl's spiritual pressure, it feels familiar,'
Yoruichi casts the odd ball Urahara a mysterious glance. Everyone once in awhile, his eyes would turn from Rukia to glance at Chizuru, the girl was moving faster than Rukia, she ducking and dodging all leaches shot at her. It was an amazing sight to see. Even Chizuru herself was in a state of awe over this. The girl was practically grinning in shock. However, a leech from above lands on her back, shocking the girl enough to trip her, leaving her open for more leech barrages.
Shrieker from above vibrates his tuning fork tongue, and the leeches covering Chizuru explodes. Chizuru cries out more out of surprise than pain. To her the little explosions from the leeches were like punches from Michiru, not strong at all, but still enough to hurt her a little.
Hearing cries from Rukia, she saw the girl bleeding all over from the little exploding leeches, further stunning her. Staring down at her body, Chizuru saw only small bruises, bruises that should be bloody patches like Rukia's.
'I don't know what's going on, but if this body can take those leech bombs and Rukia's can't, then,'
Chizuru run over to Rukia, just as another barrage of leeches is shot at the down shinigami.
"Rukia-chan,"
Chizuru covers Rukia's body with her own, the leeches hitting her all over. Rukia stares at Chizuru stun, not believing her eyes.
"You,"
"I'll protect you,"
The leeches suddenly explode, and Chizuru cries out painfully. The attack was stronger than before, and Chizuru could feel blood sliding down her back, the back of her arms and legs.
'Damn,' Chizuru's vision blurs. 'To think all of this started because I had to play gopher for Tatsuki,' Chizuru collapses on Rukia breathing heavily, her pupils returning to normal. 'If I live, I'm stealing a kiss from her and Rukia,' the strange spiritual pressure rising from Chizuru fades and she closes her eyes, her wounds suddenly becoming worse. Rukia feels blood soaking her uniform, and she glances down to see blood soaking through Chizuru's shirt through her own. The girl's breathing was growing weaker by the second alarming Rukia.
"She's going to die if I don't do something,"
Chizuru is suddenly thrown from Rukia's back by Shrieker. The girl sails over the fence and in the water below.
"Oops, didn't mean to toss her that hard," Shrieker's eyes gleam in sadistic pleasure. "But it's alright, I'll eat her soul once she passes, but first you shinigami," Shrieker leaps at Rukia, but a foot to the back stops him.
"Hey asshole,"
Ichigo glares at the hollow angrily.
"No one does that to one of my friends and lives,"
Ichigo throws a glare at Rukia.
"Hurry up and turn me into a shinigami," Ichigo steps on the hollow and leaps next to Rukia. "I'll deal with this bastard, you get Honsho," Rukia smirks and dons her glove. Thrusting her hand into Ichigo's chest, his soul skids out his body, much to the hollow's shock. Ichigo swings his zanpakuto over his shoulder, and casts Rukia a back glance. The girl was already diving in the water from the top of the fence, and Ichigo grunts watching her go. Ichigo glowers at the hollow once his attention was back on it, anger clear in his eyes.
"Injuring Chad and Rukia, doing that to the boy," Ichigo spots the bird and Chad standing a few feet away from his down body, he checking it over. "And nearly killing Honsho," Ichigo's spiritual pressure crushes down on Shrieker, driving the hollow to the ground. Ichigo was suddenly in Shrieker's guard, his sword to the hollow's neck, and he whispers coldly, saying a line an irritating black-haired, cold speaking beauty said to him days before after an accidental kiss and grope.
"Your death is guaranteed,"
Ichigo rips his sword through Shrieker's neck, blood spraying everywhere. Ichigo then whispers once more, not knowing Shrieker was going to do just as he declares.
"Rot in hell bastard,"
Chizuru: Whyyyyy
(Ryo and Tatsuki stares at Chizuru, the girl was on her knees in despair screaming to the heavens)
Tatsuki: Hey, you got a lot of action this chapter
Chizuru: Like hell, I died
Ryo: If you were dead, the story would be over
Rukia: Not necessarily, she would become a spirit, and then possibly a shinigami
Chizuru: Too bad that's not happening, with the awesome power of Plot Armor, I'll survive anything thrown at me
Tatsuki: Hmph, just hope that armor doesn't break by the time things really get heated
Chizuru: Heated in what way
Tatsuki: I'm not saying
Ryo: You're really getting into things
Tatsuki: Oh shut up
(Tatsuki stalks off)
Chizuru: Guess we should go too then
Ryo: Hmph
(Ryo and Chizuru follows after Tatsuki, ending the chapter)
