Thread: A Secert Alliance Is Formed (Shyone and Frogger)

The young Shinigami contiuned to mumble softly to himself as walked along bettewen the grave stones. The peace and silience of the outside world were so quite when compare to the sounds inside of his head. His Zanpakuto aruged with each other in such an adorable and laughable fashion that the Shinigami almost didn't notice the face that he was indeed not alone among the gravestones of the dead. In fact it was In'ei who said, I believe we are being wacthed... About the same time that Ryou noticed it. He began to wonder and he began to ponder... who it was that it could possiably be. This person who was distrubing his thinking time that was spent under his mental Tumtum tree. Sighing to himself the Shinigami knew that no risk could be taken as he slowly took his Zanpaktou onto his hand. He wasn't sure if it was sure what the being was... that had wondering into the 'Dark Puppeteer's land. The creature seemed be quite weak or was very good at concealing itself so no way that he could possiably know. So turning around his eyes began to as the preasance of another sound began to grow. Tears... Sadness... the feelings of a young girl hiding in darkness. The emotions made the one visable eye grow wide as he finally laid eyes on the sigh of a small human spirit. The sound made the one visable eye grow wide as he recongized a sound so much like his defenseless sisters. In a way it started to bring out his protective side to much. Calm down there silly boy Was the silly voice of Ningy speaking into his mind. The more feminie part of the sword toyed with him saying, Why don't we find our new friend. They might need some help. His only reply, Prehapss. So he began to search around in the direction the noise came form. It was behind a couple of gravestones that the young man found a child Plus who was sitting there and crying over two graves. Playing your respects Kyoko-chan? It was the first time that the emotion in his voice didn't seem as impish, but geninuely curious. The small child looked up at the Shinigami, and there was an obvious sense that they knew each other. Ryou's fondness for protecting kids in a big brother manner was quite well know around Seireitei, as well as the districts of the Rukion were he took care of the poor kids. Especially in his former 40th district of the Rukion where he had lived, before moving to Seireitei to live as a Shinigami. The man was always treating a certian large group of the kids to better food from his personal salary. He also had a habit of trying to encourge them to become Shinigamis. It was for this reason that the 6th Division had at least 20 members who used to be kids back when Ryou first starting doing it. So that was why he extended that towards the Pluses, and made sure to wacth out for the young ones. This also included giving them a little extra time and help to make sure they could pass over without any regrets. Tonight he remembered just so happen to the time him and this spirit had agreed would be the best time to go. Before the young Plus could reply Ryou gently laughed, before affectionately ruffling the spirits hair, So what do you think.... His words though were cut off at the last second as he sensed an attack, but in his relaxed state he had only moments to react as he pushed the young spirit to the ground. When she looked up at him she would see the Shinigami was stabbed through the shoulder by somthing... causing the young male to laugh in his manic way, Oh dear... it looksss like thisss could be a problem Kyoko-chan. Though I hope your ok... Ryou's pain tolerance was very very high, but it was somthing that caused him to write checks his body couldn't cash. So it was more of a mental numbness. It was obvious though that the attack had been ment for Kyoko... the 4th seat had protected her from it. The man even went so far as to not only not protect himself, but like a flash the little Plus was gone. The Shinigami having preformed a Soul Burial on it to make sure it was sent to the afterlife before even daring to save himself. Though the hollow which had attacked the young Shinigami at this point had wrapped his sword arm in a manner were he couldn't attack because it wasn't done with it's prize yet. The creature didn't mind the loss because it had a better prize than a simple Plus... he also would be able to kill and devor the Shinigami and gain even more power. The creature laughed softly as it said, Well I guess this is the end for you... little Shinigami. With those words it's bladed arm fell to cut Ryou in half.
