Enforcement Run-Into [Chihiro, Hono]

Feet that proved to be far busier than most going about the Rukongai sped on through the streets, Chihiro’s bright hair fluttering in the breeze as she was performing her afternoon mad dash across the district. Today was pure running as opposed to Hoho, blitzing through the streets and for the most part doing well to avoid obstacles, her ultimate goal to get to the other end of the district without crashing, or well, that sure was her goal for the last three months. Something always messed up her run, and today was no different.

Hopping over a cart and weaving between a crowd, she felt pretty confident in her stride, almost halfway through the district and the sun hadn’t even started falling yet. Maybe today was the day! Her heart was pounding, eyes bright as her steps hardly touched the ground from her speed, before the unfortunate happened; someone weaving the corner in front of her all of a sudden! But she didn’t want to stop, but there wasn’t enough time to get out of the-

WHAM!

Her skinny form slammed her and the unfortunate victim onto the floor, the golden girl buzzed with dizziness before slowly getting off and holding her head, “Ow ow ow… Ah sheesh..”

That hit was still ringing her skull, rubbing her head and peeking an eye open to see a head of pink hair yelling at her to carry her or something after... Some guys? Bad guys? OH! Her gaze suddenly brightened as her shoulders squared, "Right-o!" She wouldn't hesitate if it meant she could get into some action, suddenly dipping below Hono to scoop her up to sit on her shoulders in an incredibly sure move as she'd go on to run after the ne'er-do-wells, struggling to keep herself upright as she wasn't used to the additional weight on her. Ah man, maybe she should practice running with heavy stuff!

"Oh! Are those the guys? I can get them with my Zanpakuto!" She'd point to the guys running ahead of them, grinning ear to ear as she felt her blood pump.

Though the girl started bolting, the kick was both painful and unnecessary, causing a small squeak as she jumped from the unexpected kick.

"Hey! Ow! You didn't have to kick me!" A complaint would ring but quickly get cut off when she almost ran into a group in the crowd, sidestepping clumsily but quickly forcing her balance back under control, although it was entirely possible Hono hit her head on something, "Aahh, sorry! Oh crap the guys!" She could see them running off not that far ahead, putting a hand on the grasp of her Zanpakuto, hastily calling out, "Okay! Let's do it, Hachiman!"

"A chase?! So exciting!" The chipper tiny buzz of her Zanpakuto hit her ears right as her sword transformed into the golden glove, pointing the stinger at their targets as she focused on being careful with which fingers she put down; wrong finger and she could accidentally blow the guys up or fill them with holes, after all! Luckily she had a nice, safe immobilization technique, flexing her ring finger and taking aim, before the stinger tip of the glove would suddenly fire a goopy pale stream of flowery-smelling liquid, hitting the feet of one of the runners and consequentially stopping him in his tracks.

"Woah! I actually hit em!" She'd cry out in joy. It wasn't that she was a bad shot or incompetent with her Zanpakuto, but rather that she never expected the first shot to go well. So she WAS getting better! "OH RIGHT! There was more than one, sorry!"

Wow, she really should incorporate running with something heavy on her shoulders during her daily runs, this was really a workout! Chihiro had a big dumb grin on her face as she kept up with the chase, though she tripped up a bit when she felt the load on her shoulders fall back a bit, yelling a big "WOAH!" before she forced herself back upright, having cringed a bit at the sound, "You okay?!"

She couldn't even look up to see Hono properly, but the girl's yell to keep going shocked her straight into keeping up, her footsteps quickly gaining as she adapted to the weight, yelling as the tip of her weapon suddenly shot another stream of the sticky pale yellow fluid to stick up the other two, the waxy formations causing them to trip and get stuck on the ground.

"YEAH! We got em!" Chihiro's joy was insurmountable by all but the wooden post her eager feet ran the two of them into, the girl falling backwards and groaning, "..Ohh, my feet forgot to stop..."

Dizzy and wheezing, Chihiro lied sprawled on the ground, pain radiating from a slightly bleeding nose and definitely going to bruise forehead, she'd never hear the end of it from the medical ward... At least they managed to catch the bad guys, that was the win here! Thankfully she didn't need to scrape herself off the ground, Hono did plenty by pulling her into a hug and thanking her, a bit of warmth on her cheeks at the flattery. Yeah, she did help catch criminals, she should get thanks, that's right!

"Haha, you know, no problem!" She tried to sound all cool and interesting, but it was tough to put on a good act given she's never been in any real action before, at least none that weren't monitored or leashed by instructors. Standing up straight once relieved of the hug, her hands on her hips as she glowed with pride, extending a hand, "Chihiro Sano! Second division! Nice to meetcha, Kaen!"

She swore that name sounded familiar, but she couldn't immediately place it..
