[u]Souta Fushimaru Hari[/u] Souta continued to shunpo his way back to Squad 8. The smile he showed Aya to try and make her cheer up had long since dropped off of his face... Looking down, he watched his feet as he moved, sighing. [i]'Me and Aya... would never work out anyway... hmm, well, Sunshine is more suitable... Wait, why am I thinking about this? There's nothing to think about anymore... I just need to get back'[/i] After a while, Souta found himself standing at the gates of Squad 8. Stepping into the barracks, he felt something unusual under his foot, causing him to immediately move it back. [i]'Huh?'[/i] Looking down, Souta's eyes widened slightly. [i]'Aya's Zanpakuto? What is it doing he-Oh yeah, she left abruptly so must of forgotten it...'[/i] Picking up the sword, he removed Konome's Zanpakuto from his back. [i]'Sorry sis but I'm going to have to leave this behind... I'll come back for it'[/i] Souta shunpo'ed into Fumio's room, placing the blade on top of the table. He almost instantly noticed Chie sleeping on Fumio's bed which made his body tense. [i]'Must... be ... quiet'[/i] The moment he had placed the blade, Souta shunpo'ed once more to leave the room without making any unnecessary sounds. Wrapping his left arm around Aya's sword while putting his left hand in his pocket, Souta made sure the sword was secure before shunpo'ing again, making his way back to the area he was in only mere moments again. [i]'I hope they haven't left yet...'[/i] Speeding up, Souta focused on reaching his destination... Once he got there, he couldn't believe the damage that had occurred while he was gone... [b]"What happened here?"[/b] Souta thought allowed after a short gasp. [b]"Aya?!"[/b] He yelled... Hopefully she wasn't too far...
