Child of the Hogyoku

Chapter 7

"That was as bad as always." Ichigo moaned clutching his stomach.
He walked back with Rukia after a evening of avoid eating as much as possible. Him, Chad, Uryuu and Rukia always had fun trying to find ways to get rid of the food where one, Orihime wouldn't find it and two, looked like they'd eaten it.
"I don't know, I think she'd getting better." Rukia shrugged.
"Don't tell me you're starting to like her...creations..." He stared.
"I don't know. She gets something's right."
"If you say so," He shook his head as the carried on.
The two enjoyed the cold nights breeze that swept across the street. It whipped up Rukia's dress and ruffled Ichigo's orange hair but then Rukia stopped.
"Huh?" Ichigo turned and looked back, "What is it?"
"It's colder than usual," She replied, "This way."
She ran to him and dragged him round a corner.
"R-Rukia." He was taken by surprise but eventually his eyes fixed.

"We were warned about you." The officer put the white haired boy in cuffs as the other threw his skateboard and spray cans into the back on his vehicle.
"Careful with that." Toushrio barked jolting forward to be stopped by the officer behind him.
"Cool it kid." He was told.
He glared back at him, "Don't call me a kid."
One office got out his phone with a sigh, "It's what you are kid. Deal with it."
"Well you're a fat b-"
"Is there something wrong officers?"
He was interrupted by Ichigo calmly walking over Rukia behind him. Toushrio looked up only to look away at the sight of the man he was trying to avoid.
"Great..."
Rukia tried not to laugh at the boys reaction.
"Who are you?" One officer looked between Tousrhio and the new orange haired man.
"Name's Ichigo Kurasaki. I'm an assistant teacher at the local school," He told them, "Had Toushrio in my class today and was wondering what was going on."
The two policemen looked at each other before the more senior, the one restring Toushrio nodded.
"Well look down there." He pointed to an alley way they were near.
Ichigo and Rukia peaked round they corner.
It wasn't just and eye this time. It was a full blown dragon, well, weather it was known to Toushrio or not it was more like a full blown Hyorinmaru. Piercing red eyes in the on the head, the long snake like body coiled and the wings spread wide. The icy and powerful looking dragon wasn't as big as he should be restricted by the boy's height but there was no doubt it was impressive.
"That's...good." Ichigo mumbled.
"And who are you miss?" The officer distracted Rukia.
"Rukia Kuchiki," She politely bowed her head, "I live with Ichigo, we were walking home."
He gave a nod and flipped the phone.
"Who're you calling?" Ichigo looked back round.
"Kid's social worker." He replied.
"Stop calling me a kid." Toushrio yelled at him.
"Shut up." The officer behind him shook him.
"Social worker?" Rukia glanced back from Toushiro.
"Yeah," The officer holding Toushrio replied as the other was one the phone, "Boy's a resident of the local kids home."
The two looked at the tenth squad reincarnation as the officer spoke of the phone and watched him give some sudden jolts to try get free of the grip of the man behind him. He didn't have much luck though.
"He'll meet us at the station." He closed the call.
"Come on then kid." Toushrio was pushed towards the car.
"Can we come with you?" Ichigo jumped in, "Maybe we can help sort this out."
He saw this as a chance knowing it would be hard to get Toushrio to say near him long enough to talk after this.
"I don't see what you could do." The junior officer replied.
"I don't see why not," The more senior closed the door on Toushrio, "Could use any ideas on how to set this kid straight."
"We'll try help how we can." Ichigo nodded.
"Thank you." Rukia made sure to say.
