"Sorry if you've got a problem with me..." For the past couple of days, something was festering at the pit of her stomach. She had no idea what it was. She didn't feel sick. She wasn't injured or in any kind of pain, but something was definitely off. She felt as if something big was happening and she needed to be a part of it. It was like something was trying to send her some sort of signal. This feeling was constant and had begun to drive her insane. Then, she noticed something. It had been a while since she had talked to a certain someone. "Snopy..." she mumbled under her breath and sighed, "You better be okay..." With this feeling still scratching at the back of her mind, she decided it was about time to pay him a visit. Setting down her pen and turning off her computer, she gave notice to a fellow Squad member and left. "I don't know what's going on, but something is up..." Kanna thought as she left the Squad Four Barracks and began her journey to Squad Fives. Once she arrived, about ten minuted later, she asked around and everyone told her the same thing. That hadn't seen him. Getting highly annoyed, she finally ran into someone who knew something. It was a young woman who told her that Snopy had left for his home in the Rukongai. She was informed about him acting strangely and that some people thought he was getting sick. The girl gave him a few direction to help her find the house, but the directions were a little vague. Apparently they only knew the direction he walked in when leaving the Seireitei. Kanna's left eye twitched out of slight irritation and she shook her head. "That dumbass.. If he's sick he can come see me!" she thought as she waved to the young girl and ran off. It didn't take her too long, but she made her way out of the Seireitei and began heading in the direction that she had been told. One thing that did make her happy, Snopy was not trying to hide. She could easily sense his energy. He wasn't very far at all. Knowing this, she took in a deep breath and let it out in a sigh of relief. She quickened her pace by beginning a few shunpo. After only a minute or two, she stopped right in front of a house that she assumed was his. She felt his energy inside. "This better be it..." she thought as she walked up to the door and knocked, awaiting for him to answer. |

"Sorry if you've got a problem with me..." Just by entering the area, Kanna could tell something was off. She took a step back from the door and awaited it's opening. She took in a deep breath and crossed her arms along her chest. She heard a click of the door and looked towards him. Her left eye twitched just enough for her to feel it, probably not seen by Snopy. "His smile..." she thought as she heard him ask why she was here, "It's fake." She said nothing in reply to him at that moment. Now she was just completely worried. Then she saw him bring his hand up to his head. Immediately she could tell he wasn't feeling well, but how bad was he feeling actually? As he invited her in, she nodded and stepped inside behind him. She turned towards the door and grabbed onto the handle, closing and then locking it. This action might worry Snopy, but she was about to find out what the hell was going on. At least now she knew why she was feeling such a strong sense of dread lately. It was because of him. "You're sick..." she said and then turned to him, her hand leaving the door. Kanna stood up perfectly straight, looking as if she was on some sort of serious mission. She stepped towards Snopy, but then quickened her pace. She set a hand on his chin, grasping rather tightly, while her other hand came out to his left and grabbed onto his wrist. She then stepped forward and without any restraint, pushed him back until he met a wall behind him. She narrowed her eyes, looking actually rather fierce, but not angry. It was an obvious worry and curiosity that lingered within. She brought her left hand, the one that was on his chin, up and around his face, pushing his hair back. Her right hand did not loosen on his wrist at all. "I can't believe you did not come to me when you weren't feeling well... If you're sick enough to make you want to take some time off of work... I THOUGHT YOU'D AT LEAST COME TO SEE IF I CAN FUCKING HELP YOU SNOPY!" |

"Sorry if you've got a problem with me..." Hearing the first of his words, Kanna's face scrunched up in more anger than she had previously felt. She brought her hand down to the collar of his shirt, the other still gripping his wrist, and tugged harshly on it. "You're telling me that it was your gut feeling that something was seriously wrong, yet you still did not come to me! Did you ever think about how bad it could get i-..." she was stopped when his wrist was practically torn from her grip. He wrapped his arms around her and held onto her. At first, her anger kept her from reacting, but after calming down, she was able to lean into him and brought both of her hands up to lay on his chest, gripping his shirt. Hearing his words worried her. It also didn't help that he was feeling bad enough to begin crying. She wasn't sure exactly how to react to this, so for now, she just stood there and listened to him, allowing him to hold her. "You know..." she begun speaking as he finally stopped. She could tell he was at his breaking point, and it even began to scare her. She didn't like seeing him like this, nor was she used to it. "You have no idea how worried you had me. I was able to tell that there was something wrong for the past few days. It was like there was something I should have been doing, someone I should have been with... Now I know that it was you..." She pulled away a bit and looked up to him, a worried, yet softened look in her eyes. "Snopy... You're not a threat to me. You should understand that, okay?" her tone suddenly hardened back to it's norm, "Sooner rather than later, got it? I'm not going to have a boyfriend who can't tell me when something is wrong. I refuse." |

"Sorry if you've got a problem with me..." Kanna was happy when he held onto her for a bit longer. The happiness faded and worry rose up once more as he let go of her and began walking towards a door. She followed him. The two came to stairs that lead down into a large basement. She looked around, noticing all of the things he was pointing out, including the fridge and stove. It was strange for a house in the Rukongai to have such things inside of it. It was rather impressive. She looked back to him, listening quietly to everything that he was explaining to her. She was easily able to tell what was going on with him. It upset her. It worried her. Because of these feelings, it was almost like she was beginning to lock herself away once more. Her softened face began to harden. Her eyes began to drain themselves of any emotion that they had. With what was about to come, there was no point of any of them. They would likely only get in the way of what she knew she had to do. "What he's hinting at..." she thought as she crossed her arms along her chest, "He might as well just come out and say it... He's making it way too obvious in the first place." As he sat upon the ground, she moved to stand about five feet away from and direction in front of him. Looking down at him, her eyes would be just as cold as they were the day they first met. Not only was she in her 'professional' mode, but it was like all love she had felt for Snopy was being pushed back. The reasons for this were hers and hers only. She gave no hints otherwise. She nodded to his requests about the barrier, but as he asked whether she wished to say anything to him she kept silent. She stared blankly at him for a while. "Yes... There is something I've been wanting to tell you, but..." she spoke bluntly and coldly, but then continued, "I will speak with you when you decide to return." Those were her words to him at the moment. Yes, she was cold, but the reasons for this were... One: She knew she was probably going to have to fight him to protect him and herself from what she knew was about to happen. Allowing her emotions to get in the way was not a good idea, so she had to push them back to keep her focus. Two: This gave him more motivation to return to her. She was worried about him, but she wanted him to get through this first. It was sort of her way of giving him some sort of motivation. Three: This was her way of coping with the situation. Right now, at any moment, the man she had come to truly care for was going through something that she could not understand and in the end, there was always a chance that she could lose him. By acting emotionless, it helped her cope with the situation and not break down emotionally and mentally. "Now do it." were her last words. From then on, she stayed silent and watched. |

"Sorry if you've got a problem with me..." Kanna said nothing more to him, ignoring his reply to her decision about speaking with him after what was about to occur. As Snopy entered a meditative state, she began to feel the worry increase, making it a bit difficult to breathe like normal. There was even a moment where she felt like she might cry, but she held that back to make sure she kept the image of the fearless and cold girlfriend. “You better come back...” she thought as she watched Snopy move into his unconscious state. Now there was nothing more she could do, except wait. Although she seemed to 'maybe' have known whether Snopy was going to return to her, this was not the case. Never before had she ever witnessed such. This was completely new to her, and the stories she heard from others only made her worry more. For a good fifteen to twenty minutes everything was calm and quiet. Kanna had began slowly pacing back and forth in the basement. Every now and then, she'd glance over to Snopy with a bit of worry on her face, but it soon died and she continued her pacing. With how long it seemed to be taking, she began wondering if anything would happen at all. Snopy was extremely intelligent and highly controlled, so would anything even happen in this instance? Something made her foolishly drop her guard for a minute. She stepped back over to Snopy and kneeled down next to him. The way he was slumped over made her want to lay him down. It looked so uncomfortable. She decided against it though, knowing that if she moved him, she might mess something up. She wasn't really in the type of mood that would allow her to mess something up for Snopy at the moment. The reitsu that Snopy was giving off every now and then only made her wonder about him more. “God...” she thought to herself, letting out a small sigh, “Just sitting here waiting is driving me insane. Why is all of this taking so long!?” As she stood up fully, she turned and began walking away in an attempt to continue her nervous pacing, but something happened. A burst of reitsu shot out from Snopy's slumped form. Kanna's head snapped back towards him in shock, her eyes widening as she watched him. “So....” she thought to herself as this unfamiliar red energy began condensing around his face, “It's begun....” Kanna's face calmed completely. She was ready now. She watched Snopy's face become covered in a white, fox-like substance. It seems that she was correct. She had known from practically the beginning what was about to happen here. Watching this only confirmed her suspicion, but replaced that with a heavy feeling of dread. “He's... hollowfying....” Whether it was out of fear or preparation, Kanna was unsure... But as Snopy stood up, something made her take a step back. Her face still lay emotionless, her eye showing nothing but a serious determination, but still... she took another step back. The low groaning sound he was now making actually made her worry. Right now, he was not the Snopy she knew. Although it was his body, the fact that he actually was not himself only helped her in this sense. She will not hesitate to defend herself if the need arises. And with that thought, the need arose. Snopy turned towards her, looking straight into her eyes, and yes... she took yet another step back. Seeing as this creature, the man that was once Snopy, curled his hand into a fist, she prepared herself and within a single second he charged at her at a speed she was not expecting Snopy to move. The first attack came. Kanna was completely focused so it was very easy to read his movements at this point. He was much faster than usual, but these hollow instincts that he now possessed were keeping his movements readable, which was fantastic for her. The first punch came towards her head. Kanna did not move until the last moment, as the punch was being thrown. She took a half step forward towards him, moved her head to the side of his punch. With this, her body was positioned in such a way that she was able to pivot and turn her back to him. Her back practically touching his torso, now she quickly brought her hands up, grabbed onto the arm that punched, and used his running momentum to actually pull him over her back. Once he was flying over her, she braced her lowered body and easily slammed this creature into the ground before her. Kanna was still alert and awaiting the next attack. She watched as this creature before her stood up and went for another attack by kicking towards her side. “Do. Not. Get. Hit.” was all she could think of and with that thought, instead of another counter, she moved to completely dodge and shunpo'd out of the way of the kick. She appeared about seven feet to his right, out of the way of any more attacks that he might of attempted to get through to her. It had been a long while since Kanna was in such an intense situation. The last intense situation she had was with a Hollow that annihilated her entire squad, leaving only her alive. Now that she thought about it, the person who came to comfort her after that... “Snopy...” she mumbled under her breath. She just found a new determination within it all. She was going to stay here and do her best to make sure he comes back. She couldn't leave him like this. She did wonder one thing though... If Snopy never comes back and it is always this creature... “What do I do then? How do I know whether Snopy has been swallowed by this beast... I can tell when it's the real him, but for all I know I could be here fighting for days... This thing will kill me before then... So... What do I do!?” |
