Chapter 16

   The two were now inside and the silence was uncomfortable, usually the silence on shared with Saya let others at ease, but this time he could feel the heavy waves of heartbreak. "So you found out what happened huh?" She slowly nodded. "Did you know?" He sighed and took off his hand and handed her the onigiri and coffee, both of which she took. "I had no choice but to know, I took in Nnoitora and Ulquiorra, I'm responding for why all of them have jobs."
    She tilted her head and he saw the curiosity. "I don't know how to explain to much without causing you nothing but pain." She sighed "the one....Grimmjow he said I'm like them....the only difference is I'm human." Urahara almost groaned, how much had they said. "Do you know what they are?" She frowned as she tried to think of the same. "They have hollow masks....or what looked one." Urahara
nodded at this. "That's correct Saya, they have what remains of their hollow selves."
    She blinked. "I thought hollows...had no feelings? That's what you told me." He nods. "That's correct princess, but they're no longer hollows." She raised an eyebrow, she was now incredibly curious. "They are Espada's, human like creatures who still have their own unique abilities." She blinked again, she had never thought of that. "But why didn't they tell me?" "Eat first." She sighed and took a bite out of the onigiri.
       He watched her carefully as he chose his next words very carefully, he didn't know how stable she was, and he could feel her reitsu flaring must below the surface, and usually he couldn't feel her at all. "Your reitsu has gotten much stronger" she froze, when had she lost control over it? "Calm down kid, ya ain't losing control, ya just got stronger, and it's coming out more and more lately, so it's only natural that it's harder to hide." She blinked before she realized what he said was right, her reitsu had indeed gotten stronger.
     "Now, what else is going on Saya?" She blinked "what do you mean?" "What else set you off...something's changed and I feel it." She shifted this time and put down her food before sighing. "I admitted what killed my mother." He raised an eyebrow he knew but wanted her to say it. "Oh?" "Yes, a hollow....a hollow murdered my mother." He frowned, she was oddly calm as he said this and he felt a shift in her reitsu again. Like something was coming and he wasn't sure what. "So you admitted the truth to yourself." She only nodded this time and that's when he felt eyes on him. Looking over he saw a figure staring at them, a sadistic smile on its face.
    "Im sorry." She shrugged. "So, are you really mad at them?" She looked at him "of course I am, they hid stuff from me." "What If it was for your own safety?" She blinked "what If they hid it so you could feel somewhat normal around them, so you could feel safe. They always wanted to tell you, but be honest Saya...you couldn't even admit what murdered your mother. Would you have really been able to accept what they are without accepting that truth?" Her Grey eyes widened at this, Urahara had a point, as scary as that was, she was in denial, she had been in denial for so long.
     "You're right....fuck....what....what have I done?" "You did what any sane person would do, you freaked out, you panicked and you lashed out." She frowned again. "I hurt them." "You did." She flinched. "You are so much like them....you are like them, the same abilities. Just they're right, you're human." She sighed and blinked suddenly curious. "Why did they approach me though?" Urahara sighed, he should have seen that coming. "I can't say to much, I don't know everything, but they probably saw the similarities....you could see them, you could sense them, you have reitsu....and something more. What it is I'm unsure of but I'm sure in time it'll reveal itself."
     Saya frowned as she allowed that to sink in, however the figure was still watching them, it felt the pull, it felt the rise of power and it was grinning, it was so close, so close she could almost taste it. "I guess I should call them huh?" Urahara smiled softly. "That would be a good start ya know?" She went to stand up and grab her phone when a gargantuan opened up inside her house and she froze, why had that thing opened up? Urahara also looked over and frowned, what was going on, he told them to let him handle this. However what came through the gargantuan made his blood run cold and even Saya looked horrified. Looking at his adopted child he grabbed her "Saya....we need to run...now."
