Thread: Throwing in a Variable (Shyone x thewhiterabbit)

It was moments later that the injured Shinigami looked up in the sky and noticed that one of them was floating up in the air. For just a moment they made eye contact, and he knew that she had already found him. The young Shinigami was surprised though when the hollow didn't move to cornering him instantly. Ryou had a feeling that either she was probably taking stock of the situation, as well as calling on those other two. He had to admire a creature that thought before it leaped. At first Ryou didn't make any moves to stop her, but he knew that Urahara might try to pull something and the Shinigami was not one to take chances. So he moved to make another cut in the shadow of the buildings lip, but found that by now... all three of the hollows were in the air. At this point both of the Shinigami's turned to stare at the trio in order to try and figure out what they were going to do, but suddenly one of them pulling something out and blew into it like a horn. Ryous eyes grew wide as the environment around them seemly began to change everything seemed to melt as though in a dream scape. The 4th seat held his hand up in front of his face and moved his fingers a few times noticing that they had slowed, but even with this power he wondered if it affected the situation. It had always been the appearance of Urahara that made things that much harder, and frankly it was only at this moment did Ryou actually considered things to be out of his control. He had actually been a little curious about were these hollows wanted to go... yet now with the former Captain watching over the situation he knew that was not possible. Again he kept wondering why Urahara was holding back and not even striking at the trio, but instead just stood there observing the situation. Even when the hollows began to close the distance towards him the other Shinigami didnt seem to do anything at least until they were standing on the building near Ryou. At that moment Uraharas sword flashed out, and a crimson arc of energy flew at the trio, though at a slower rate than normal. The attack caused Ryou to growl in annoyance as he suddenly said, Kage no tate... Out of the shinigamis shadow shot out two of these large shield tentacles which struck out in a double layer formation, and were destroyed in order to stop the attack. This happened again and again, for a few minutes as Ryou wondered why the former Captain wasnt even using hardly trying. Remaking them after every block, it was obvious that this was draining Ryou's energy especially because of his wound, and his reactions grew slower. His features were losing what little color they had as breathing harder. Then for a moment the attacks stopped at the former Captain examined the scene and asked, Ahhh Ryou-san... Urahara spoke in a bit of a breathy manner as he facepalmed while shaking his head, You are going to get in big trouble you know for doing this. Why don't you just let me take you back to... well never mind, but I can get Yoruirchi-chan to take you back to Soul Society. Kiskue was being light hearted about it with a bit of a laugh as he re-adjusted his hat. Though his tone grew very serious for a moment as he said, Because I need to be the one to clean up my mess here... His voice fading off causing Ryou to growl in annoyance as he suddenly said, Kage no ken... A bladed tentacle shot out of his shadow and right at Urahara, who didn't even move, but simply stopped the attack, by deflecting it easily. As Kurosawa breathed heavily the two of them just stared each other down with expressionless faces. Then turning to look towards the trio Urahara said, I am sorry, but he won't be going anywhere with you. The kid is coming back..... His words were suddenly interrupted as the younger Shinigami started to sit up a little, No... I will not be coming back, and you will not hurt them. I am sssorry Urahara-sssama, but you will have to kill me firssst if you even want to be able to lay a finger on these. The words that came from Kiskue's lips seemed to hold a sense of fake curiosity, Really now Ryou... and why would the 'Mad Dog' of the 10th want to be 'un-loyal' to his home and go with these ladies? It was grin that crossed Ryou as he said the words, Curiousssity Kiskue... plan and sssimple. I am sssure you can understand that of all people. The words made Urahara laugh as he stood there for a moment and readjusted his hat saying, Fair enough then... Without another then man turned around and suddenly jumped off the building though in a bit slower motion. The hollows would feel his reatisu disappear just as quickly as it had come... Watching the older Shinigami leave Ryou turned to the three hollows and gently held his hand out and took hold of Appaci's quite wiling. His Shikai turn back into its katana form and slipping back into its sheath, as the young Shinigami stood up on obviously shaky legs saying, Oh my name isss Ryou by the way it isss very nice to meet you. Stumbling forward he found himself wrapping his arms around Appaci for support, and in a way it was because he was scared. He didnt understand it, because it was an emotion he hadnt felt in so long, but there it was, Well whenever youre ready to go. With those words the Shinigami simply blacked out clinging to the Arrancar, obviously affected by the use of his powers combined with the blood loss.
