Grimmjow was gasping for air after an hour or so of fighting Kohana. What got him was that she was perfectly fine, he hasn’t laid a blow on her, she wasn’t out of breath and she was barely breaking a sweat. Grimmjow was quite lucky actually since Kohana just learned her new powers she couldn’t quite control them. Her flames got close but always missed him; the real problem was the power where she can control his body. Kohana has thrown him against boulder, high up in the air, and against the rock flooring. She was treating him like a rag doll. He had bruises and scratches all over his body, his left arm might have even been broken. But all he wanted to do was lay one blow on her, if he was able to at least do that he could injure her enough to win this match. But Kohana kept her distance she knew he could win this with just a punch, but she wasn’t going to let him. Kohana thought I should probably end this now as Grimmjow went at her once again she caught him in her controlling like power. Actually she didn’t think her power had the ability to people, but something else. Once she caught him there were two boulders on both sides of him, so she slammed him into the one on his left and then into the one on his right. She did this until he seemed unconscious or not able to move anymore and she gently put him down. Once he was on the ground he didn’t move but his eyes fluttered open and then closed again, so the match was over; and Kohana won. Kohana was so happy that she won, even though she hurt someone horrible in the process, but she was supposed to though, right? The sound of someone clapping broke Kohana out of her thoughts. She turned to see Aizen applauding her “what a magnificent power. Now while Grimmjow is being healed we will go back and discuss your position and your new ability.” Kohana looked down at herself with a frown “but I’m all sweaty, can I wash up a bit?” Aizen looked up and down at Kohana then looked at her face, she had a miserable expression. “Sure, Gin show her to the bathroom so she may wash up.” Gin gave him a grin that looked fake or pained “sure, Lord Aizen.” While Grimmjow was taken by people in white robes and a full mask everyone filled out of the training grounds and into the enormous hallways. Aizen and the others went one direction and Gin and Kohana went the other way. When they were out of ear shot Kohana walked next to Gin and turned to look at him. After a while “Gin asked is there something you need.” Kohana looked at him a few seconds longer and said “No, but I was wondering do you hate Aizen, or are you afraid of him?” Gin gave Kohana a smile that looked real this time.”No I don’t hate him, and I’m not exactly afraid of him. But He is a man to be feared; he’s powerful and can easily kill anyone he wants.” Kohana kind of understood what he was saying “so you’re not afraid of him, but afraid he might kill you?” “Or get me killed, but yeah you’re right.” For a few seconds there was silence, then Gin asked “now what made ya wanta ask that question?” It took Kohana a second to relies he was saying something, because she was deep in her thoughts. “Hmm, what, Oh! Well before when you smiled at Aizen it looked fake or pained, that’s why.” “Oh so you’re very observant that is a good quality to have.” Gin gave Kohana a genuine smile this time, she guessed that they were becoming what most people call friends. Gin stopped and gestured Kohana to a door; he said “well this is the bathroom, and I’ll get someone to bring you some more clothes. There will be a closet in there, and the towels and cloths will be in there. And you know the works of a bathroom right?” Kohana looked at him like are you serious but replied “yes.” Kohana went inside the bathroom, and waited for a second expecting to hear footsteps walk away. But she didn’t hear anything, so she opened the door to tell Gin to go away, but no one was there. How weird she thought, but she just shrugged it off and closed the door, she locked it just in case. When she finally looked around, the room was huge, there was a door closed near her, it was most likely the closet. She opened it, and it wasn’t that big but big enough for her to get in and close the door. She got her towel and wash cloth, she went closer to the bath but across from it was a huge walk in shower. She decided to take a shower because it was quicker. She walked towards the shower and noticed that the door was glass. It wasn’t see through clear glass, it had a texture to it, you could she through it but only figures, you couldn’t see details. She was a bit nervous to take her clothes off, she felt like someone was watching her. So she stepped inside the shower and undressed, and laid her dirty clothes outside the shower door. When she turned to look at the inside of the shower, it was equipped with everything needed. It had a few bars of soap here and there; a couple bottles of body wash, different types of shampoo and conditioner, there were even stuff to specifically used wash your face with. When Kohana finally turned the water on, water splashed all around her. It must be one of those multiple shower head, type shower. She didn’t really like it because it scared her, but after a while it felt so comfortable and warm, she felt she could stay in there forever. But she had to hurry up to meet with Aizen and the others.
Kohana turned off the water, wrapped the towel around herself, and stepped out of the shower. She looked down and noticed her dirty clothes were gone, but she didn’t notice anyone come in, also she locked the door. This freaked her out a bit, but she shrugged it off, Gin did say he’d have someone bring her clean clothes, so she guessed they took the dirty ones to be washed. When she got to the counter and found her clean clothes, she dried off and got dressed. When she was done she unlocked the door and walked out into the hall. She looked to the left and saw an unending hall, she looked to her right and it was the same. Since they came from the left she decided to go that way. As she quickly turned and takes a step she ran into something big and hard, she lost her balance and fell back on her butt. As she started to get up she mumbled “what was that?” When she was standing up straight, two inches in front of her face was a chest, then she heard “don’tcha mean who was that?” Kohana looked up to see a displeased looking Grimmjow; it took her a few seconds to realize she should say sorry. But it was hard for her to look away from those bright blue eyes. But she finally broke her gaze away and stuttered “I..I’m so..sorry, I didn’t see you.” Grimmjow rolled his eyes in annoyance and replied “obviously.” Grimmjow walked around her, and started walking down the hall, Kohana turned and stopped him “wait.” Grimmjow turned his head towards her and said “what?” Kohana replied “have you seen Gin, I don’t know my way around here yet, and I need to get to the meeting Aizen is having.” Grimmjow rolled his eyes again, and while scratching the back of his head he said “I’m going there now if you want to follow me.” Kohana hesitated for a second but then smiled at him and said “that’d be great.” She ran up next to him and they started walking towards the meeting room. Kohana kept glancing at him, at first Grimmjow ignored it, but then it got on his nerves, so he turned to Kohana and said “what?” Kohana was startled by the anger in his voice but she replied “umm, ahh, y..you got healed quickly, ar…are you okay?” He looked at her skeptically; no one has ever asked or cared if he was okay so she kind of caught him off guard. He answered “yeah I’m fine, and it was only a few scratches.” Kohana looked down disappointed and said “oh.” Grimmjow looked down at her and asked “why do you look so disappointed?” Kohana looked up at him surprised “well I’m glad you’re not hurt and all, but the way Aizen puts it I’m supposed to b strong enough to do some damage, and only being able to give someone scratches isn’t much damage.” Without looking at her Grimmjow replied “is that all you’re worried about? You just learned your new powers you just gotta train and practice with them, and actually you broke my left arm too.” Kohana smiled at him and Grimmjow got a small blush on his cheeks so he looked away while Kohana said “I didn’t break your arm the boulder did, and thank you Grimmjow.” Grimmjow looked at her from the corner of his eyes and asked “for what?” Kohana smiled at him again and said “for making me feel better.” His blush got deeper so he looked away and replied “uhh, yea you’re welcome.” Good thing Grimmjow looked over, because he would have missed the big doors to the meeting room. Grimmjow stopped and so did Kohana, he opened the door and they both walked in. A few of the espada were up arguing about something, but when they noticed Kohana and Grimmjow, all of them stopped to look at Kohana. Aizen turned his chair around to look at her and with a smile he said “well Kohana I think we agreed on your rank."
