Chapter 2

Toshiro stared at her for a moment with wide eyes. "Listen," he said in a calm voice not wanting to upset Mizore any further, "I don't know what you're talking about or what a snow person is. I just came here to ask about-"

"You're lying!" Mizore shouted as she held the ice blade closer to his throat. "If you weren't a Snow Person than I would've been able to freeze you back in class today!"

Toshiro got a surprised look in his eye once again and then closed them slowly. "I see, so your energy is the one I felt try to harm me. I thought it was that Tsukune kid that did that cus' he was onto me but I guess not." Then Toshiro kicked Mizore back and pulled out some Soul Candy from his pocket and ate one.

Once Mizore was done flying back from Toshiro's kick she looked up only to see that there were now two Toshiros. One of them was up against the wall where she had left him, wearing the pants and white buttoned up shirt, and the other was wearing a soul reaper's captain uniform standing on thin air. "Wha- what's going on?" Mizore asked in a frightened voice. "Why are there two of you all of the sudden?"

Toshiro looked down at her. "So, since your energy is similar to that of spirit energy you are able to see and hear me. Well then," he said pulling his sword and pointing it at Mizore, "by order of the Head Captain I hereby take you into custody!"

"I don't think so!" said an evil sounding voice. "That bitch is mine!" Just then Toshiro got hit by a whirl of fire. Toshiro's body flew into the forest and out of sight. Mizore looked in relief and in terror as she saw both her savior, and executioner in one monster. It was the old Security Comity's leader, Kuyou! "Oh shit!" She thought to herself. "So," she started speaking out loud now, "when did they finally decide to let you back on school grounds?"

"They didn't." Explained a very cocky looking Kuyou. "I snuck back here to get revenge on your damned newspaper club. But mostly to get revenge on that cocky lovey-dovey pair Tsukune and Moka. What those two did to me is completely unforgivable!"

"What?" Mizore asked "Kicked your ass from here to the human world. Well, I guess I'd want revenge too if I got humiliated and exposed like that in front of the whole school." Mizore knew she was just adding insult to injury by making him mad, but hey, it's not like she stood a chance against him anyway. Even if she trained with Gin and got in constant fights while around Tsukune, Moka, and the others, she still knew that their power was too great apart from each other. Especially since it seemed he got stronger as well.

Then in a flash Kuyou was in front of Mizore, grabbing her by the throat, and levitating off the ground. "Ya know," Kuyou said with an irritated look, "you really need to learn to keep that big trap of yours shut you filthy ice skank!" Mizore started to struggle to get free but quickly stopped when she noticed how high up they were. "You know," Kuyou said as the tone of his voice changed from irritated to seductive. He stopped levitating upwards and started feeling under Mizore's skirt. "I never realized how cute you were. I just might have a bit of fun with you before killing you."

Both Mizore and Kuyou suddenly heard a voice off in the distance. "I'm afraid you won't have that chance, seeing as how you're about to die." They suddenly saw Toshiro levitate up to where they were. He was now in full-fledged Bankai mode.

"Hahahahaha!" Kuyou burst out in laughter. "And who's gonna kill me! You, little man? Please, you couldn't even stop my first attack. Besides, aren't you even a little afraid to face me and my four tails?"

"Shut up!" Yelled Toshiro. "I've faced opponents ten times as strong as you and barely gotten a scratch! Now you may not know this," he said as he held his sword in front of his face, "but my sword can control any amount of ice it wishes to. Leaving me alone in an open area for this long was your first and final mistake. And just so you know, your first attack didn't actually hit me. Your eyes just weren't fast enough to see that I blocked it. You may have four tails but, as I once explained to someone with eight arms, my weapon is all the water in the atmosphere."

Then, all these ice pillars started to lift up off of the ground and surround Kuyou and Mizore. Mizore looked amazed at what this, seemingly, fifteen to sixteen year old boy could already do with his powers. Then Toshiro lifted up his left hand and yelled out "Barrier, #39, Enkosen!" Next thing she knew, Mizore's whole body was in a barrier like shield. Finally Toshiro turned his sword and said in a calm voice, "Sennon Hyoro." Then, all at once, the pillars closed in and crushed Kuyou before he even had time to scream.

The ice started to disappear after a few seconds and all that was left when the shards dissolved was Mizore in Toshiro's Enkosen. Toshiro slowly and gently levitated her down and as soon as she was on the ground, the worn out Toshiro collapsed and could hear voices running towards him.

"Mizore are you all right?" Moka said.

"Yes." Mizore said with a look of disbelief that she actually survived the attack. "But Toshiro, he needs medical attention right away."

"Alright," said Tsukune, "I'll carry him." Next thing Toshiro knew he was being lifted off of the ground and onto the boy's shoulder.

"No," Toshiro thought, "I hate being carried… it makes me feel small." Then he passed out.
