HAHAHAHA OMG LOOK WHAT I DID!
CH7
All I could see was darkness, but I knew I was somewhere big and open. It was cold, and my steps echoed slightly. I walked forwards, rubbing my arms to smooth the hairs that stood on end. I looked around me for some reason, stupid, considering I couldn't see a thing.
I tried to call out, I wanted to find someone who could help me, but I couldn't hear my voice, although I felt my lips moving.
'Where the fuck am I?' I thought
Ahhh, there you are…
My eyes widened at the foreign voice in my own head
'What?'
Focus your mind, and come closer. Follow my voice.
The voice was soft and gentle, but it had the sort of authority that you immediately do as it tells you. I thought and I focussed, although I had no idea what on, but something seemed to change
There was an orange glow, no
Two orange glows, side by side, a considerable gap between them
As I got closer, I realised they were illuminating bars, and I could make out something shimmering behind them
Good, come closer still
The voice came from the creature, although it was in my head.
'Who are you? What are you?'
I felt as if I knew this creature
The creature moved, a scraping sound of scales and claws.
I sensed it was trying to speak to me, but I couldn't make out what it said, the language seemed strange and foreign. I heard a word, loud and angry thrown around my skull. I couldn't understand it.
The orange glow of flames reflected off scales that shone like mirrors
"I see that you do not want to hear my name yet… it muttered
'What are you doing here? Where is here?'
The voice chuckled slowly, and I could hear it moving around. He seemed so massive, and trapped in such a small space
We are in your own world. In your mind. In your soul. I am your power, and I have been locked away for so long...
'M-my power?'
"You've got your power too, Tatsuki Arisawa, you just haven't unlocked it yet. Yours isn't brought about from Ichigo Kurosaki's reiatsu evolving your own, like how Orihime Inoue and Sado Yasutora developed theirs. Yours is your own power. You are stronger than them."
My mouth hung open and my heart swelled. I felt as if I had finally achieved something worthwhile. That I was...actually something.
You're not an ordinary human at all, Tatsuki, your powers are far superior, our powers...
'How come you only chose now to show yourself?'
Ahhh well, you see
Out of the darkness, a white mass was thrown to my feet. I looked closer and saw the 'hollow' from earlier, tiny and dead at my feet.
'Wha? It seemed so much bigger earlier...'
"That's how weak you were, now look. With our power you could crush it with your foot as easily as stepping on an ant…
I ... needed this interaction to wake me from my slumber. I've been stored away down here in the darkness for so long. How I wish to stretch my wings."
He shuffled behind the bars that trapped him.
'How did it wake you? What do you mean?'
When it bit you, it transferred some of its energy and soul into you, as a kind of backup plan, in case it died. If it did, it would take control of your soul and reform itself. Luckily, your soul is already inhabited.
I rubbed my head, not sure to make of all this.
'So what now? What does all this mean?'
There was some shuffling again, and I saw a pair of golden eyes staring at me through the pitch black.
I can give you the power to finally defeat that worthless piece of scum Kurosaki, and together we could become so powerful. All you need to do is free me
Its voice was more urgent
'How?'
When you find my name, I will be free.
His voice started to fade, and I felt myself being pulled away,
'Wait!'
I gasped and was flung back into reality, face to face with a pair of bright blue eyes.
"Shit" I breathed
"Fuck," she growled, rubbing her head and sitting up, "what a dream..."
She glanced up and I stood back, eyes wide and mouth slightly agape.
"What's up with you? Watching people sleep! Rude!"
She stood up and stretched her arms and neck, before stopping and crossing her arms, looking at me.
"Grimmjow, that goldfish impression was good at first, but now it's getting on my nerves. What's up? You look like you've seen a ghost"
I blinked and closed my mouth, but I couldn't stop staring at those eyes.
The reiatsu in the wound, the hollow's reiatsu… that must be what's doing this. Somehow...
I made a decision.
He swung his fist at me. Or, I saw him do it, about a minute before he actually did it. He was so slow that I didn't even flinch or panic, I just grabbed his wrist, pulled it down and kicked him in the face. When I looked up, there was a hole in my wall.
"What the fuck!?"
I ran over and saw Grimmjow sprawled in my hallway rubbing his jaw, blood gushing down his head, a dusting of plaster over his body.
"Ohmygod. What the fuck have you done?"
"Me?" he sneered, wide eyed. "That's all on you Goldie!" He wiped at the blood with his sleeve.
I scrunched up my face "Goldie?"
The dream was present in my mind, and the gold eyes looking out of the darkness. I frowned and glanced at my reflection in the mirror and did a double take. I rushed over and pulled at my eyelids
"What the fuck. Why the fuck are my fucking eyes fucking gold?"
Grimmjow stood up and walked over, gazing at me in the mirror.
"Your reiatsu is crazy high. I think it's something to do with that hollow."
I spun around
"How did you know about that?" I blinked and rubbed my head, "wait how did I even get back." I sat down on the bed, still staring at myself in the mirror. The gold eyes from my dream were looking back at me.
"I killed the hollow, Orihime healed you and I brought you back."
"You beat it?"
He nodded. I sighed.
"I lost. Again. I was no fucking match for that hollow"
I flopped backwards and covered my eyes with my arm.
"Why can't I just be strong!?" I growled, hitting the bed
"Um, you just punched me through a wall."
I peeked at him through one eye. I scowled
"But…Wait! You can see hollows too?"
There was a loud banging at the door which caught our attention. Before we could do anything it burst open and a pair of thugs stared at us gormlessly
"Which one is it?"
"You moron it's the one with blue hair"
I glared at Grimmjow
"What's going on? What have you done?"
"I haven't fucking done anything!"
I stomped over to the men
"What the fuck do you think you are doing in my house? Get out!"
"We're not here for you girlie."
He pushed me out of the way.
They stalked over to Grimmjow, who was in a defensive stance. My anger boiled over.
"I said get out!"
The taller of the two grabbed Grimmjow and they scuffled, throwing each other against the walls. The other man turned to me, he had a tattoo of scorpion on his neck.
"Are you gonna shut up, or am I gonna have to force something down your throat to make you?"
Bile was at the back of my throat as he grabbed my shoulders, a sly grin on his ugly mug.
"You take your hands off her!" Grimmjow yelled.
I felt my energy surge and a voice in my head, telling me to do it. Everything became kind of surreal, my skin felt prickly, like pins and needles and I felt as if I was rising out of my body through my chest. I smirked
"Anything you put in my mouth you're going to lose."
I punched him in the gut, and as he doubled over I smacked the back of his neck with my elbow. He grunted and passed out, blood dribbling from his mouth.
Her eyes were glowing, bright bright gold and she looked like something ethereal. She was giving off an aura that was raw energy, and it swam around me and pulled me in. She looked completely different with those eyes, like a predator, and a fucking seductive one at that.
She knocked the one guy out before I could blink, and I was glad. Although I would have liked to do it myself. I didn't like the way he was touching her, it stirred uneasily in my gut.
She sauntered over to the other guy, as he released his hands from my collar. Her eyes saw him as nothing but prey. She smiled as she swiped at the back of his knees, I saw blood and realised she'd cut his tendons with her bare hands. I couldn't move, I was too entranced by her confidence and her power.
The man fell to the ground, yelling in agony and she stamped down on his chest. He wheezed and tried to crawl away and she walked next to him, watching him.
"Tatsuki..."
She glanced up at me and my stomach flipped.
Those fucking eyes.
She swallowed and swayed a little on her feet, rubbing her head.
When she opened her eyes, they were brown again.
"What?"
She stared down at the men strewn across her floor
"Did I do this?"
I walked over and kicked the man in the head, and he slumped over unconscious.
I swallowed. "It was fucking amazing."
She smirked, then her face turned serious.
"What did they want with you?"
"I don't know…" I looked around. The two men were wearing the same uniform.
She glanced around her ruined apartment.
"What are we going to do with these guys?"
"Throw them out the window?"
she smirked and looked at me, and laughed even more when she saw he I was serious.
"Um, no."
I stepped around the bodies over to the fridge and pulled out a half empty bottle of white wine. I unscrewed the cap and took a swig, offering the bottle to Grimmjow, who accepted. I leaned on the counter
"But if they were after you, how did they know that you were with me, and that you'd be here?"
Grimmjow made a face after her swallowed the wine and shoved the bottle back into my hands.
"I don't know, but we should get rid of these guys."
I picked up the phone and called the police and they arrived soon enough.
"What happened, here miss?" one officer asked, pen poised over notebook.
"well, me and my, um, boyfriend were just about to make dinner when these men barged in out of nowhere and started demanding money, I tried to make them leave but they were too strong and they threatened me in the most awful way," I feigned a hurt, weak woman, "but luckily, my boyfriend is so strong," I grabbed onto Grimmjow's arm," I don't know what would have happened to me"
The officer nodded and I continued, getting into the role
"Grimmy managed to knock them both out, but they really damaged my home!" I indicated the hole in the wall. I felt Grimmjow's incredulous stare on me.
"I just hope these men get locked up so that they don't barge into someone else's home! They might not be as lucky as I was."
The police took the men away in handcuffs and as soon as the van drove away Grimmjow and I burst out laughing.
"Quite the actress you are"
"Ugh, can you imagine if I was actually like that?" I smirked
I mocked,"Oh Grimmy, save me from the big bad man!"
"It would make a nice change from all the swearing you do."
"Hey!" I punched him on the shoulder lightly and I made my way over to the kitchen.
"I. am. Starving. Are you hungry?"
He nodded eagerly.
I opened the fridge and found nothing but wine and fruit. I rolled my eyes at my inability to look after myself and picked up the phone to order an Indian.
