Toshiro Hitsugaya: A new Horizon

Chapter 11: The Pendulum Begins To Swing

Welcome to the Eleventh Chapter of this story! Now I want to thank everyone who reviewed the last chapter, seriously all your positive responses make me feel warm inside!

READ EVERYTHING BELOW OTHERWISE YOU'LL MISS SOME IMPORTANT FACTS!

Okay on to business, first off is that there is going to be changes to certain characters and parts in this section of the storyline to fit mine otherwise it wouldn't make sense. I've been doing several versions of this part of the story since Chapter Five and this one seems the best to me and my friends and also, due to a project coming up which WILL take up a good deal of my time online, I'll be doing the entire Turn Back The Pendulum in this chapter.

I originally wanted to break it down to three parts but when my teacher announced this project, I knew that I wasn't going to have time to work on the three parts so I had to combine them into one which meant major rewriting on my part. Seriously I'm sorry about putting it all into one chapter but school is really sucking my free time up so I had to improvise. Trust me, if I hadn't put it all into one chapter, the next update would be weeks from now and that would just be the first part.

I do promise you, however, this chapter will answer your long awaited question.

Yoruichi's Decision: Will she stay or will she go?

Also I'll explain Damian's Bankai and its abilities at the end of the chapter.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the storyline otherwise I would make millions!

Two months after the death of Isshin, nothing much had change in the Seireitei besides Toshiro becoming Lieutenant and Acting Captain of the Tenth. Of course that caused some trouble within the Tenth as many of the members blamed Toshiro for the death of Isshin and were outraged that he was given the rank of Lieutenant.

Some said that they could be a better lieutenant than him, said people were quickly sent to the Fourth with broken bones by Toshiro who they challenged.

Others said that he won't be able to handle the stress of running a division for long, they were quickly proven wrong after Toshiro successfully ran the division for two months.

One was even foolish enough to say aloud in a bar that the only reason why that Toshiro got the rank of Lieutenant was because that he went and cried to his Kaa-chan about it. Unfortunately, Yoruichi was at the same bar with Soifon, Kuukaku, and Unohana and the three barely stopped her from murdering him... but not before she beat him into a bloody mess.

Toshiro, however, appeared to be running the division smoothly but that is only if you don't know him well enough.

"Shiro-chan you need to get some sleep." Yoruichi said to her son who was halfway done with a stack of paperwork sitting behind Isshin's desk. He rubbed his eyes as he let out a yawn. "Just wait Kaa-chan, I need to finish this year's budget and after that find some time to meet the new recruits."

Yoruichi sighed as she walked over to her son, taking the brush from his hands. "You can do all that once you get some sleep Shiro-chan. When did you even start on this paperwork?"

He shook his head and stared into space for a minute. "I think... eight PM." Yoruichi's eyes widen in surprised before she picked up her son into her arms, making him protest. "Kaa-chan! I'm not done yet!"
