"SMALL" Trouble In Karakura Town

Parius walked along the sidewalk, whistling an old tune. He was wearing his usual ensemble, though with his fancy coat. He stopped, and looked into a store window. He wasn't alive, so he couldn't buy anything, but he still liked to look. He then continued down the road, thinking about the new Organization he had joined. It had been a while since he had been in an Organization, but these, Endless intrigued him. If it wasn't for that fact, he would leave.

Parius stopped, again, and looked at a restaurant. He smiled, and remembered the food he could eat. He stopped reminiscing, when he noticed a gate open, and a small Captains Cloak, pops out. Parius couldn't believe his eyes. Was that a child. As a captain? He shook his head, and decided to follow the Captain, to see if it really was one. He stopped in a couple place, and stole candy, from a candy store, before leaping up onto a building.

Parius was about to leave the child alone, when he shot off into the distance, after something. Which was weird, considering Parius couldn't feel anything. Parius moved after him, when Anokoku spoke up. You sure this is a good idea? Probably not. But, I'd rather not get someone killed, from not going after something like this.

Rena had been helping the committee from the sidelines for months now.. She didn't want to get directly involved..but didn't want to not help the humans in their fight against the hollow menace that everyone has to deal with. She had long since given up wanting to be tied to an Organization..so much so that she wouldn't even join the same organization that was for the vizard..her own kind..Though that was mainly because they allowed her Father there..and the two would spend most of their time trying to kill one another than actually doing any work.

So here she was..patrolling Karakura town.. she had schedules on what part of the world she would patrol and when..being a spiritually powerful being..she could use Shunpo for extended periods of time..though she wasn't as fast as some people she knew..like Raiden Arashi..she was still good enough for travelling the world in a matter of days and now was Karakura's time..it was the most important part of Japan due to it being the most spiritually interfered part of the entire world.

During this time..she noticed another shinigami coming to the world of the living..normally..this didn't even catch her attention. But this shinigami was captain class..and that DID catch her attention..not enough to follow him..but enough to wonder why he was even here. She continued her rounds until she felt another Vizard like herself following the Shinigami. A confrontation? someone too curious for their own good? The vizard and the shinigami had a truce..but they were far from not hating eachother. The Shinigami saw the vizard as traitors..but because of the efforts of Ichigo Kurosaki..left the vizards alone.. if this man did something stupid infront of the Shinigami captain...

So she followed after the vizard who was following the shinigami. Even with her speed..it didn't take long to catch up to the vizard..though she kept her spiritual pressure under lockdown so she would be harder to notice..She didn't want to get involved unless something bad happened after all.

It was a pretty nice day in Japan. This man himself never been to Japan. He looked out at the cloudy horizon. The brim of his black hat shading his eyes. His brown eyes scanning the area when he sees a gate open. “hmm” He said with curiosity. He carried a sling on his back with a blanket wrapped in rolls. His midnight shining nice shoes reflected the sun off of the leather material as he strode toward the area. He had black hair that was a nice cut that went under his hat a bit. He wore a black tuxedo that look like it came out of the 30's. And a yellow polo collar shirt, black tie to match. The town was packed today. Little kids swinging by the hands of their parents. A fun fair could be heard in the distance. Screams of thrill seeking teenagers on the roller coasters would just make it this distance.

He walked down and passed couple open shops. He would graze his eyes through a few. Some couples on dates, what looked like a married couple getting ready for the wedding, he noticed the bored look on the face. But then he noticed something very interesting, a child with a hand full of candy. But that actually wasn't what caught his eye. It was the suspicious human following behind. Well it didn't feel like a human, more like one of those strange swordsman he see wonder the area. And he felt a similar feeling power but escalated. He walked over the the child, He didn't want to leave the child just to find out the strange looking man was a pedophile. “Hello there Mister” He smiled looking down at the by wearing the white jacket, he had a sword to it seemed, but he was still just a kid. “Where are your parents?” his voice sounded faint with Italian accent.

Parius felt a power behind him, and it was Vizard, same as him, but he discounted it. It made no aggressive actions towards him, so he really didn't care. However, a man, wearing a suit, and a black hat appeared. Parius looked at him, as the child Captain drew his sword, sheath and all, before hitting him in the head with it, yelling "You're it." Parius laughed, as Emi ran away. Parius's eyes widened, as he could move. Fast. Parius walked up to the man, who had been hit. "Seems he put the slip on you." With a chuckle, Parius extended his hand. "Hello. I am Parius Chitose."

Parius watched, as the kid moved off, the slapped his rear, calling them dumbies. "Well, that's a new one." Parius said. He had been called alot of names. But dumbie was not exactly top of that list. He sighed, and looked at the man. "Well, now what." He noticed the power from earlier, really close. He looked around, to see a women. "So. You're the one following me. Are you in the Endless? Introduce yourself. We are the same race, so it is not like I'm going to attack..."

"I am not in the Endless..and even IF we are the same race..that doesn't mean anything. I've witnessed humans slay eachother.. Bounto's slay eachother, shinigami slay eachother..and hollow slay eachother.. You could be different..or not. That will be judged by myself..not your words."

Rena walked out of the shadows..her stealth having been foiled so easily that it was kind of lame..with her hand in reversed grip on her Zanpaktou handle..allowing for the easy drawing and defending with it at a moment's notice. she didn't really care about the Shinigami..but apparently this man and the man she couldn't sense energy from did..and that bothered her instincts a little bit. So she figured it wouldn't hurt to try and play along...for now.

"We should probably go after him..Captain-class or not..Shinigami running around like a child can pose a problem to the humans."

With that she simply took off running after him. It wouldn't be hard to catch up to her..but she wasn't super slow either..luckily..thanks to her high stamina..she could run for a long time..she just wasn't as fast as some people she knew..So off she went. Figuring the two men would follow after her or try to stop her. It didn't matter which.

The man just stood there processing what just happened. He shook his head. Kids where kids, might as well play along. Then the potential Pedophile came up to him and introduced himself. “Well Mr. Chitose, my names is Gauge Jackson” he smiled and then decided its about time to go after the kid. He could still sense the child. He dashed off towards it not noticing the other woman coming up. The child was very fast, Gauge could catch up if he got serious possibly, but otherwise he would have to use sneak tactics to tag him. He scanned the surroundings and chased after the child now in his sights. Hopping off the same buildings he did, but avoided the cars. He chuckled a bit, it has been awhile since he took a break and played some games. He dashed up closer to the kid and noticed the Woman chasing to. He remember the child yelling everyone is it, maybe she was a parent of his or something. She did feel strong, not someone Gauge would want to piss off.

Gauge veered off the path and thought where would the child end next. He noticed the pattern and disappeared at high speeds(using whatever bounts have that’s like flash step) and appeared right in front of the child. Due to his race, this would be completely off guard, but who knows what this kid can do. He ran forward right after reappearing and dove over the kid and tagged at his head. If succeeded he would say“Now your it” he chuckled and kicked off the air deeper into the city, always making sure he could sense the kid. If failed, he would keep trying to tag him. He did not realize there were two vizards, and this one child was a shinigami.

"Fine" Parius said, to the women's words "Couldn't blame you." Parius nodded, as all of them agreed to go after the little Captain. The other two shot off, but Parius wasn't as quick about it. He walked casually down the street, before smiling, and Shunpo'ing off. He could still see the guy. Gauge, as he went the same route as the child. Parius followed him, and was soon close, when he stopped, Parius about ran into him, when he was off again. Parius watched, as he went to catch the child, but the small Captain, Shunpo'ed above the man, and used him, to get further away.

Parius followed, using his Shunpo. He landed, in front of a market place, before going into a toy shop. He got weird looks, but he didn't care. He saw the Captain, playing with a toy truck, as if it was a plane. Parius walked over, and, if this works, poked him on the head, stating, "You're it." If not, he would miss, and pick up the chase again.

Rena didn't care for childs games. Though it made her wonder how in the nine hells this manhad become a captain. He acted like he was 4 years old and looked like he was 9. However..unless he stole the Haori..which Rena doubted..he really was a captain of gotei 13. Looks like Soul Society had seriously sunk to new llows if they had to allow a child into their ranks. Unlike the others however..she wasn't playing tag. She was only making sure he didn't do anything seriously stupid. Playing as though he was a child was stupid yes.. but it wasn't dangerous to anyone. She intended to keep it that way.

So while everyone kept trying to catch him and fail. She simply kept pace with the speedy little kid and didn't bother with anything else. If he did something that could cause problems..then she'd stop him. Until then this was just a way to kill time..since she had been searching for hollows this whole time and hadn't found any. Kind of figuring they would have attacked a captain class shinigami by now..or ran with their tails between their legs..Either way it didn't matter long as this kid didn't ruin the city.

(..sorry..but I'm basically spectating.)

Gauge looked up to see the lady he that he assumed to be his mother. Instead of chasing him the man slowly walked over to her. “Nice kid you have” He smiled. He didn't know anything really about the Gotei ,figured that whole captain nonsense was just a game. Although he did shrug off the fact the kid could use Shunpou. “So what are you all doing here?" Are there hollow around” he did know the basis of them killing hollow. He didn't mind them. However he could not tell the difference between vizard and shinigami, he has never encountered a vizard before. He looked down at Parius playing with the child. “I hope that man isn't a pedophile” he chuckled a bit. He had an impression that the woman may be ignoring him, well then so be it, he will talk to himself. “By the way, I'm Gauge Jackson” he took off his hat and bowed like a gentleman.

Parius smiled, at the Captains innocence. It reminded him, of his younger brother. Parius grimaced. A pang of guilt, for leaving his family. Then, the small captain, waved his blade again, a devilish smile on his face. Parius smiled, as he moved out of the way again, before Shunpo'ing outside. He looked to see the other two, Gauge and the women, talking. He smiled, and moved towards them. "Before he comes back out, I would like a name, from you." He asked the women.

If the captain came back up, he would laugh, before looking at the two. "Well, before you start thinking it, I'm not a pedophile. I just...like to do things. Hate being bored...." He Shunpo'ed off, before landing on a roof. He watched what would happen next, with a smile in his face. I hope this gets a bit more interesting.......

She grabbed the man and glared him down as he implied that the shinigami kid was her child. She didn't want a child. She didn't need the burdens of a child..and she didn't want to know how messed up the child would be..having a vizard mother as a parent. She lifted him quite easily off the ground and continued to glare at him before speaking and then setting him back down as the other vizard came out of the building nearby.

"He isn't my kid. I'm doing damage control. Nothing more. I'd rather have him out of the world of the living since he obviously isn't here for a mission."

The other vizard asked her name at this point. She scoffed a bit..considering it didn't matter who she was, but since he bothered to ask..she figured she'd let him know. After all..she wasn't without a nice side.

"Rena Lisola. Daughter of infamous Kaze Lisola. Don't even try to compare me to that lunatic either."

She watched as the vizard took off. Guess that ment he had tagged the kid and was now running from being it. She didn't go after him..instead she waited for the kid so that she could keep an eye on him. Vizard didn't concern her.. they knew what not to do.. but this shinigami captain was so childish she couldn't shake the feeling he was going to do something stupid.

Gauge could have dodged the hand, but he didn't really care, instead he gave a funny smile and laughed nervously. “Sure” he smiled. She was pretty funny he thought to himself, and then she introduced herself. She obviously had some issues. “If you don't want us to compare, why bring up his name in the first place.” he was curious in thought and saw as the vizard left. The a small hush left the blankets on his back. “ah..i see” he smiled things are gonna get interesting, or so he hopped. He looked down at the store and spotted the kid, he could see the sword out, uh oh, he thought. He wasn't wanting conflict, however different could be said for the blade hidden in the blankets. He hasn't stopped being so restless since we spotted the kid. He turned back at the Female named Rena. “So, why would this kid be here on a mission”. He didn't quite understand that the child was a captain, or part of the Gotei, which Gauge didn't know of either. “What's wrong with such a kid doing here? And why are you so defensive about children.” he decided to throw in just for some kicks, however already he could tell it would either be ignored, or not taken lightly, oh well, Gauge knew he could take care of himself in a battle.

He had no hatred for any race, little did he know that the kid was of the gotei, and they hated his own race. He looked back at Rena. “are you as shinigami as well” he asked, he knew the kid was by the outfit, he had seen many of those kind around. But he didn't see one on her and Parius, who talked about being the same race he heard while dashing to the kid in the first place.

Parius watched, his smile dissapearing a bit. Rena Lisola....So, she's the daughter, of Death? Parius chuckled, before watching what transpired below, as Emi launched at him. The kid was fast, but speed was on of Parius's specialty. So, he Shunpo'ed away, taking a very long route, back to Gauge, and Rena.

He appeared, as the silence between them grew. His wolfish smile back, he sat there, for a bit, listening to what the two had to say. Or, they might try to tag him. If that happened, Parius would Shunpo away, stopping on a street corner. He pushed hisd hair, out of his eyes, before moving again. He didn't know, if they were after him. He didn't care. PArius hadn't let his speed loose, since he had fought with Ashen. And now, he was gioing to enjoy his little trip. He had other things to do....

Her reiatsu flared angrily as the idiot made another comment about her being a "mother" indirectly. but for the most part she ignored him. She had already answered his questions with her previous answers. She was here for damage control. Nothing more. Nothing less. and the idiot captain was acting so childish it was no wonder Rena was worried something bad might happen.

However..the captain apparently had a high interest in acting like a fool. He came out of the store..trying to flying drop kick the guy next to her in the chest and then did something very..incredibly..truely..retarded. He swung his weapon..sheathed or not didn't matter..at Rena.

Her Zanpaktou snapped from it's sheath and the reverse blade style katana slammed down onto his with more than enough force to send the tip into the ground. Her reiatsu once again flared dangerous out of anger. It was bad enough he was being a childish moron but now he was swinging that zanpaktou around like a toy! HOW did this man ever become a captain!?

the little boy laughed and took off after the vizard with the purple hair right afterwards..and Rena was forced to take off after them. If for some reason this turned into a brawl..even a friendly one..this was going to get far more irritating than it needed to be. Spiritual beings shouldn't clash unless there is a damn good reason. Not because someone is acting 4.

The child came fast, but Gauge could see it coming. He grabbed out the blanket and flung it in front of him still all rolled up to block the attack. Gauge's own strength was not weak, he easily redirected and flung off the child’s attack. The blanket even cushioned the blow. “heh” he smiled. Gauge was a whole lot better than he looked. He flung the feet in the air and Rena took care of the rest. A Hush left the blanket. Gauge sighed as the blanket unraveled after Rena went off. It revealed a golden hilt double edge sword, gleaming in the sun. The hush rumbled from the sword, as if it were alive itself. Gauge slowly walked towards where everyone was running. “No killing though, he is just a kid” he glared at his blade. He wasn't gonna put so much effort, he just walked casually over there.

Parius watched everything, before moving again. Rena seemed to be pissed, so he didn't try to get near them. The small Captain seemed to be trying a bit harder. Ha moved towards him, but Parius Shunpo'ed more. He decided to move towards Gauge. As he landed near the man. He waved. "So, you have do have a sword?" He smiled, before Anokoku interjected himself. Fight. Now. "Ok, you know what? Shut up., Anokoku. Or, I'll spin you, again."

He sighed, before looking at Gauge. He was probably confused. "My sword is....bothersome, sometimes. So. I mean no disrespect, but what are you? I can't feel any Rietsu from you, like normal Humans. But, neither are you a Vizard, or Shinigami..." If, by that time, Emi had caught up to him, Parius would look at him, before sighing again. He would move away again. He was getting bored, but he would keep moving.

Rena stopped as she caught up to the other vizard and sighed a bit at how stupid this had become. What was the point? This kid obviously had no mission. No reason to be in the world of the living at all. Especially while wearing a captain haori. Is this how far the gotei 13's precious standards had dropped? Even a useless good for nothing child could become a captain?

"I've had enough..I'm tired of this. He has no mission and no right to that haori..I'm done. Gotei 13 can clean up it's own wrecks if this kid starts trouble."

With that she clapped her hands together and was gone. No spiritual pressure was detected. No trace of where she went. She had literally warped away from there she was before hand. Hundreds of miles away in Kyoto she relaxed on a rooftop and decided to take a nap.

"I can't believe Soul Society has dropped so low.. I had heard it was much more grand than to allow a child to be a top ranked official.."
