By: Tomatopiranha
Writers note: Okay guys, here is chappy 14 (of course) as i said in the last chapter i already had this written a long time ago, idk if i'll be able to continue though i'll try my best to! Thx for reading nd writing i luv all of u! ^.^
It's getting harder to control. Why? I.. I need to.. control it. I must. If not, my friends.. they will.. be hurt! Stop. Stop it. Stop!
Rebecca fell from the bed in Kira's house gripping her head tightly between her thighs. She had her hand over her left eye. She yelled in pain as she felt like her skull was going to collapse.
"-knock knock- Hello? Are you okay in here? Oi" Ukitake said from outside the door.
He was feeling a little bit better than normal that day, so he decided to take a walk. As he was randomly walking around different squads, he stumbled across where Kira's house was. He heard a yell and a loud thump from Kira's room. It did not sound like him, so Ukitake was worried.
Rebecca paid no attention to the knocking outside of the door as the pain was almost to hard to bare.
"Oi! Are you okay in there?!" Ukitake said now pounding on the door extreemly worried. "I'm coming in" he said opening the door.
He walked in to see Rebecca cringing on the floor with her head in her hands. He could tell she was in immense pain, for he himself had expirienced pain because of sickness.
"Rebecca! Are you okay?" he said walking over to her.
She could not answer. She could not see or now hear anything going on around her.
I.. must... control it!
Rebecca's reiatsu than exploded.
"Akk, what's going on?" Ukitake wondered.
He then saw Rebecca after the reiatsu cleared up. She had a small scar coming from her neck.
"What the hell happened?" Ukitake said kneeling over to Rebecca.
"U-Ukita-ke?" she said looking up at him.
"Yes, it's me, Ukitake. What happened here? I'm going to take you to fourth squad okay?" he said.
Rebecca looked up at Ukitake. He seemed like a big teddy bear. He was like an uncle to her. Rebecca than fell over hugging Ukitake like a bear. He patted her on the head.
"O-kay" she said with complete trust in the white haired shinigami.
So Ukitake picked up Rebecca and shunpoed to fourth squad.
"Oh, Ukitake. Whats wrong?" Unohana said as Ukitake appeared.
Rebecca then burst out in a rage of coughing.
"Rebecca are you okay?" Ukitake said.
Right after that, Ukitake then also broke into a fit of coughing.
The two of them slumped down onto the floor, both coughing up blood. They were both exausted. Rebecca from what happened earlier, and Ukitake from shunpoing with Rebecca when still feeling somewhat ill.
"Hanataro, please come help me" Unohana said.
"Oh, hai" he said running over.
So the two sick captains were put in the same room, where Unohana and Hanataro were taking care of them.
After they had been put in the room, Rebecca had passed out. Unohana said it was because of exaustion.
"Huh? Where am I?" Rebecca said sitting up putting her hand to her head as she woke up.
"Ah, please don't sit up so suddenly Smith-Taicho" Hanataro said.
"Hm? Why what happened?" she asked.
"You don't remember?" Ukitake said from the hospital bed next to hers.
"Oh, your here to Ukitake?" she said.
"Yeah"
Ukitake then explained all of what had just happened.
"Ehh? Seirously? Man, I really wish I knew what was wrong with me" Rebecca said sighing.
"Excuse me" Rebecca heard from the door behind her.
She turned her head to the door and recognised the familiar reiatsu. It was Byakuya standing in the door frame.
"Ah, hey Bya" she said slightly coughing into her hand.
"What did you get yourself into this time?" he said walking over to her bedside.
"Well, I don't remember it, but Ukitake helped me" she said looking over at Ukitake.
"Thank you" Byakuya said to him.
"(Wow, he's grown alot since he was younger. It makes me feel like an old geezer.)"
"It's no problem" Ukitake said with his usual smile.
"Oh, by the way Bya" Rebecca said.
"Yes?"
"Happy Birthday!" she said smiling.
Byakuya was slightly suprised. He did not tell anyone that it was his birthday.
"Sorry, I didn't get ya a present. I was gunna but then a bunch of stuff happened and I didn't get to get you anything" she said.
"Thank you, how did you know it was my birthday?" he asked.
"Ah, well I looked into it a little. It's pretty easy to find out stuff like this" she said smiling.
"Oh, and by the way. I think I left my glasses in Kira's house. I should go get them" Rebecca said trying to stand up.
"No Smith-Taicho! You have to rest for a little bit" Hanataro said.
"But I can't see without my glasses" she whined wanting to get up.
"What were you doing in Kira's house?" Byakuya asked.
"Well I didn't get any sleep with Isane with me. So in the morning Kira came over and he said that I could sleep at his place. He went back to work after that, and I guess thats when I got really sick and Ukitake showed up. I'm pretty sure that I didn't bring them with me" she said.
Ukitake chuckled. "If you can't see without your glasses, how are you going to make it there?" he asked.
"Oh, well. Umm" she said sitting back in her hospital bed.
"I'll get them for you" Byakuya said.
"Really? Thanks Bya!" Rebecca said.
"It's no problem" he said shunpoing away to Kira's house.
"He really has changed" Ukitake said.
"Really?" Rebecca said.
"Yeah, when he was younger he was very short tempered and clumsy, and now when he's around you he seems a tad nicer" Ukitake said.
"He was clumsy?" Rebecca said suprised.
"Yeah, he was so cute" Ukitake said smiling remembering the chibi Byakuya.
Byakuya then came back with Rebecca's glasses.
"Here" he said handing them to her.
"Thanks Bya!" she said sliding on the slick glasses.
"Those look good on you" Ukitake said from his bed.
"Haha, thanks" she said smiling.
"It's no problem. I will be taking Rebecca back to her house now" Byakuya said to Unohana.
"Rebecca needs to rest. She will be staying here Byakuya" Unohana said.
"It's okay. I can take her home" he said.
"I said, Rebecca needs to stay and rest here. Right, Byaukya" Unohana said with an evil look in her eye.
Unohana then gave an evil glare to Byakuya. He glared back. They then glared at each other for a minute.
"Fine, I'll come and get her later" Byakuya said walking out the door.
"Ah, she won" Hanataro said to himself suprised.
"Wow, she is amazing" Ukitake said.
"Bye Bya" Rebecca said waving from her bed.
After a little while, Unohana and Hanataro had other patients to attend to, so they left Ukitake and Rebecca to rest. Rebecca and Ukitake had both fallen asleep in their hospital beds when Kiyone and Sentaro walked in.
"Taicho! I heard that you were in the hospital, are you okay?" Kiyone said running in.
"No, I heard first that he was in the hospital!" Sentaro said.
"What? Why you" Kiyone said getting cut off by Sentaro.
"What is Taicho doing sleeping in the same room as Smith-Taicho!" he said pointing to the sleeping captain.
"Waa!" Kiyone said suprised.
"We have to help Taicho, we have to move her somewhere else so that Taicho will be pure!" Sentaro said not knowing what had happened.
"Yes! Lets move her somewhere else" Kiyone agreed.
So Kiyone and Sentaro undid the locks on the wheels on the bed so that they could move it. They could not choose where to move it, so they decided on leaving it in 11th squads barraks. The reason, because they could not decide on anywhere else. So the two of them secretly rolled the still sleeping girl out of fourth squad, making sure not to come across Unohana, because they knew that if she could them they would both be dead.
So the two of them made it outside of fourth squad without being caught.
"Phew, we made it out alive" Sentaro said relieved.
"Yeah, although, why did we choose to go to eleventh squad?" Kiyone asked.
"Hm, I dunno. Cause you refused to let us drop her off at captain commanders office" Sentaro replied.
"Well, then why the hell are we climbling over a hill right now?" Kiyone said.
"I told you, we can't let Unohana-Taicho catch us or we're gunna be killed. We have to make sure no one see's us"
"Whatever" Kiyone sighed.
As the two reached the top of the hill with the hospital bed, took a break.
"Geez, this is hard. It's a good thing that I'm so devoted to Taicho" Kiyone said stretching her arms.
"You? I'm a hundred times more devoted than you are!" Sentaro said.
"Hah, you wish!"
As the two were arguing, the hospital bed with a still sleeping Rebecca started to roll back down the hill. The two were so involved in their fighting that they did not notice the bed rolling down the hill till it was already half way down.
"Ahh! Sentaro!" Kiyone said pointing.
"What is it? OH MY GOD!" he yelled.
Rebecca was exausted, so even with all the commotion she did not wake up. The bed rolled down towards a porch where Ikkaku and Yumichika were walking.
"Oh crap! What do we do?!" Kiyone yelled pulling at Sentaro's uniform.
"Lets run for it!" he said shunpoing away.
"Hey, wait for me!" she said following him.
As Rebecca was rolling down the hill on the hospital bed, the wheel hit a bump. This made her wake up and she sat up to see herself rolling down a hill.
"What the hell!?" she yelled.
"Hey did you here that?" Yumichika said looking over.
"What?" Ikkaku said before it was to late.
Yumichika had taken a step back since he saw it before Ikkaku did, though Ikkaku did not see the bed rolling down the hill towards them, only to be hit head on by it.
-SMACK-
Rebecca had used lightning step to get off the bed before it hit Ikkaku. She stood next to Yumichika.
"Yo Yumichika" she said to him as he burst out in laughter.
"What the hell was that for dammit!?" Ikkaku yelled jumping up from the ground.
Rebecca put her hand over her mouth hiding her laughter.
"Oi oi oi! I said what was that?!" he said.
"Sorry Ikkaku, I really don't know what happened" she said.
"Whaddya mean ya don't know what happened?" he said.
"Well, last I knew me and Ukitake were in the hospital and I fell asleep. Then I was rolling down a random hill for who knows why" she said.
"What an un-beautiful was to wake up" Yumichika said swishing his hair with his hand.
"Geez, what the hell" Ikkaku said brushing off.
"Hey Rebecca, don't you think that Ikkaku would look good with makeup?" Yumichika asked.
"Well, it sorta random. But yeah, he would look better with make up since he's bald" Rebecca said.
"I'm not bald damnit! And I told ya Yumichika, I'm not puttin' on any stupid make up!" Ikkaku yelled.
Rebecca and Yumichika were thinking the same thought. They both walked towards Ikkaku.
"W-Wait guys. Whaddya think you're doin?!" he said as he backed up as the other two walked towards him.
About twenty minutes later.
"There, I'm done!" Rebecca said turning around Ikkaku in a spinny chair.
The two had strapped Ikkaku to a chair to put make up on him.
"Augh! You made him look gothic!" Yumichika shrieked.
"What? No, he looks cooler this way!" she said.
"You drew a skull on the back of his head!" he yelled.
"Well if someone walks behind them they will think that he is a skeleton man" she said smiling.
"Hey guys" he said.
"Hm?" they said both looking at him.
"Why the hell did ya kidnap me and give me a makeover?! Youre both dead once I get outta here!" he yelled.
"Haha, if ya can catch me" Rebecca said smiling.
There was then a knock on the door. Yumichika answered the door to see Byakuya.
"Kuchiki-Taicho! Why are you here?" Yumichika said.
"I followed Rebecca's reiatsu here. Where is she?" he said looking in to see Rebecca standing next to Ikkaku who was strapped to a chair.
"Hey Bya!" she said smiling waving her hand.
"Hello, what are you doing here?" he asked her.
"Giving Ikkaku a makeover!" she said spinning the chair around showing the large skull drawn on Ikkaku's shaved head.
Byakuya couldn't help but slightly smile. It seemed so much like something Rebecca would do.
"(Oh my god! Kuchiki-Taicho just smiled! What the hell, I've never seen him smile before!)" Yumichika thought.
"You were just in the hospital, you should rest. I can walk you home" he said.
"Okay, cya guys" Rebecca said patting Ikkaku's shiny head.
"Oi! Don't pat my head!" he said from the seat.
"Bye" Yumicika said as the two walked out the door.
So the two walked to Rebecca's house talking along the way. Once they got there, Rebecca asked if Byakuya wanted to eat dinner with her. It was already late, and Byakuya hadn't eaten. He accepted on the terms that he would cook.
Rebecca sat down at the little table in the middle of the room where a pile of papers were. She put her up in a ponytail like she usually did before working. At first, Byakuya noticed that other than her bangs, the dye in her hair was starting to fade, leaving her hair looking a mix of black and blondish brown. Though he then saw the scar on the back of Rebecca neck.
"Rebecca, whats that?" he asked after putting on a pot of water to the stove.
"What?" she asked as he walked up to her.
"On your neck, that scar. When did you have that?" he asked.
"A scar?" she said walking up to a mirror.
"Oh my god! The hell? I musta got this this morning" she said looking in the mirror.
The scar ran from her neck to the tip of her shoulder.
"Why, what happened this morning?" he asked.
Rebecca then explained what had happened earlier that morning.
"I guess that's why I have this scar then" she said frowning in the mirror.
The timer on the oven went off, meaning that Byakuya's food was done. He pulled it out and it smelled delicious.
"Wow! That smells great!" she said.
"Thank you" he said putting the food onto two plates.
Once he had divided the food he set the plates on the table and Rebecca walked over.
"Itadekimasu" they both said sitting at the small table.
"Ahh! Bya your food is so amazing! It's like all fancy also! Kyaa this is great!" she said as it almost seemed that she was glittering.
Rebecca kept on rambling to herself about how amazing Byakuya's food was while eating as much as she could.
"(She eats so much, yet she's like a stick. I wonder where all that food goes)" Byakuya wondered.
After eating Byakuya went home and Rebecca went back to doing her paperwork. After working for about a half an hour she heard a bump outside.
She wondered what it was, so she picked up her sword and walked to the door. Rebecca had no idea why, but she had thought that it was an intruder. She opened the door and jumped out with swinging her still sheathed sword at the noise. It was night time so Rebecca could not really see.
A hand then stopped the swinging zambaktou that still had it's cover on. Rebecca was suprised, it was Unohana.
"U-Unohana! Sorry!" Rebecca said.
"Thats not a problem Rebecca. The problem is, why did you escape the hospital" Unohana said staring evily at her.
"U-Umm" Rebecca said trying to explain to no avail.
Rebecca then used lightning step and appeared ontop of the roof. She stuck her head over the side of the roof, looking down at Unohana.
"I know your up there" Unohana said looking up.
"EEP!" she gasped as she dissapeared running away from the so called "demon healer", or so as Kempachi had called her.
