Something wasn't right... Oh, THAT explains it! ^^'

When I sat down, I started to wonder why I said that. It wasn't like me, but sometimes I really got into the thrill of the fight.

You really are stupid Suchi came the voice.

You?! You made me say that?!

Wow, it took you this long? Actually, I only had part to do with it. It was as simple as putting the idea in the back of your thoughts.

Uh, Suchi, who are you talking to? asked Niikashira.

There you go again, hiding everything. I suggest we all have a little private meeting. If you'll ditch this group for a bit, we'll all talk face to face.

"Hey, Ichigo? Can I use the bathroom?" I called out of nowhere. People turned to stare, but I didn't care.

"That's Mr. Kurosaki to you, Ms. Harmony!" he half whined half yelled.

"What ever, but please call me Suchi. I can't stand all this formal stuff." He looked at me for a second or two, then turned away.

"Fine, go." I smiled, and stood up, using Niikashira for a slight amount of help. Exiting, I flash stepped to the privacy of the girl's bathroom. Closing my eyes and meditating with my back against a wall, I found myself swept to my inner world.

~~~

Niikashira stood there, magestically. "Give me a second," she said. Her form melted in the rain, and she reappeared as a girl of about 18, with silver hair and gold eyes, with dragon wings and a tail. She wore a simple, sleeveless, silky silver dress.

"Well, we're all here!" came the voice behind me. I whirled around to face...

Myself?! Only the whites of my eyes were black, and my irises were blood red. My pupils were a slightly gold white color.

"So, I finally get to meet Suchi's sword. Niikashira Doragon, wasn't it?" Niikashira eyed her carefully. I set a firm glare at her, or me, or what ever she was.

"Heh, Suchi? Surprised to see me?" she lifted a hand to shake mine. I just looked at it.

"I don't trust you yet..." I told her/me.

"Hmph! Good! Well, now that we're all introduced, I think it's time I should be going. Train her well Niikashira Doragon. The next time you see me, I won't be so friendly. Ciao!" She/me walked off into the fire with a small wave of her hand.

"Beware Suchi, I don't like her being part of you like this."

"I didn't need your advice to know she was dangerous," I said, calmly. The rain came down a bit softer, the fire died a bit, and the edges of some the grass blades turned a dry brown, but only for a second, but then all was 'normal' again.

~Suchi

Sry! Long post! This took quite a while to write. Feel free to mess with Suchi as you wish. Slap her if you want or something. ^_^
