The Lady and the Lunatic - Free

[Baocao]

Hueco Mundo was boring. That much had to be accepted as fact by any Arrancar. It was just... sand, with a single building standing out in the landscape. ...Yeah, this wasn't going to work. Not caring where he went as long as it had some form of entertainment, the strange bundle of bandages and purple cloth known as the Cuarta Espada opened up a Garganta, hopping through with a happy giggle. Destination? Any-goddamn-where.

..... So now he was in an unfamiliar city, full of people. So icky. They had all sorts of bacteria and viruses all over them. The very thought made the madman shudder. Thus, he walked along the streets, an invisible, masked, mummy-like creep wearing a very jingly shawl and trying to avoid any and all contact with these disgusting beings. Ah, life was good.

Spotting a small anthill, Baocao began to cackle with glee. Bugs were fun to squash. They were so.... disgusting. THEY HAD TO DIE. So this oh-so-strange Arrancar decided to bend over in front of the small pile of dirt and squish the ants one-by-one. The poor insects had no clue what was going on. All they saw was their comrades being mercilessly slaughtered by an invisible force before their eyes. Hundreds of times his index finger came down, each time snuffing out the life of one ant. This was bliss, it was.

"Oh, bug, bug, bug. How I hate you soooo~ You all need to die, I hope you all fry~ And theeeeere I go!"

This little song was sung in a shaky, high-pitched voice on the verge of either laughing or crying. It was hard to tell sometimes.

It was very clear that this man was insane. But for the most part he seemed harmless. Well, harmless to anyone but insects. With his tattoo hidden and his Reiatsu being pitifully weak, he was nothing more than a docile curiosity... and an easy target for any bloodthirsty Shinigami.

A chill wind blew across the streets of the bustling town, this Karakura Town, one of the most spiritually active towns in all the world. It blew the pitch black hair of the goddess-like shinigami standing over the heads of the bustling shoppers and workers, unseen to a select few, obvious by their averted gazes and lustful glances at the Soul Reaper captain. Her delicate hands were resting at her sides, her right resting on her zanpakutou: and what a zanpakutou it was. Completely white, with a star-shaped tsuba and white wrapping around the hilt, it seemed to glow with an ethereal shine, cast from the mid-morning sun. But the truly astonishing, and most beautiful, aspect of her zanpakutou were the gems. Diamonds and sapphires, beautifully cut and flawless, adorned her zanpakutou sheath, couple with sapphires like pools of liquid blue, spiraling down the entirety of her scabbard, until it caps at a large diamond retainer.

A small hollow, sensing her supposedly meager spiritual power, jumped for her, some form of lizard. Without a backwards glance, she pointed at the creature. A small bolt of lightning flew through it ... and slammed into the ground in front of what appeared to be a man, completely incinerating the anthill it was studying, as well as a large portion of the surrounding land. Sakaya mentally sighed in relief, her face remaining elegant, cut in the fine shapes of aristocracy. If she had hit the poor guy, she would never forgive herself. Her blue eyes - deep and bright, like starlight caught in sapphires - were wide with worry. She quickly moved to him, though never at a full run: the lady of the Kuchiki Household never ran.

As she moved, the diamonds around her black Shikahusho sleeves and hem, as well as those around her Hakama - customized so as to not be pants, but more of a dress - glimmered subtly in the sunlight, casting reflections as she walked. Her approach was like the heralding of angels, her pitch black hair and tanned skin cast in light, the ruby earrings she wore casting a nice contrast against the nobility of her features. She hovered over the man, leaning over to get a better look at him, in whatever position he may be in, a beautiful gold locket dangling in front of her breasts. She knew - or rather thought - he couldn't see her, so there was no harm in approaching it, surely. She was curious, however, as to what was under those raps .... she frowned softly, her lips pouting ever so slightly. She was truly beautiful, a beauty to match her zanpakutou.

"BLEAAAAARGH!"

....That escalated quickly. One moment he was simply killing those evil, evil insects, and the next EVERYTHING WAS FIRE. JESUS FUCK WHERE DID THE ANTS GO? Baocao's mind instantly began flooding itself with conspiracy theories... Perhaps the ants wanted REVENGE. WHAT IF THE SUN WAS FALLING? WHAT THEN, HUH?! The strange masked man began flailing wildly about, his entire being overcome with fear at the potential situations... But then... a glint caught his eye.

The being now lay on his back, looking up at the noblewoman. His wide eyes were hidden by the darkness beneath his mask, yes. But they were so wide and bright at this point that it didn't matter. They could be clearly seen, and the his bright green corneas could barely be seen due to the dilation of his pupils.

Baocao was staring at the locket. It was... magnificent. So was the sword... but the locket was closer. He had to have it. Something so beautiful and brilliant would need to be added to his shawl, to help ward off the evil that was certainly stalking him wherever he went. Without missing a beat, Baocao raised a leg.

His leg was completely covered in bandages, save for the strange, metal, claw-like caps on his toes. To make it even stranger... he was stick-thin. This creature barely had any muscle or fat. But who was to know what he really looked like? The rest was hidden beneath the shawl. Calmly, and surprisingly quickly, Baocao kicked at the Shinigami, grabbing the locket between his toes.... and yanking. The chain would easily break, and he would have a new shiny. After that... Who knows? He had forgotten why he was there in the first place.
