Chapter 3: Where There's a Will...

Hiyori!

Ow!!!

Wh-What the hell was that for?!

Get over here!

Ouch! Ow, ow, ow!

Stop pulling on my ear!

What's the matter with you? Why did you bring me here?

I heard you caused a big ruckus at your own squad and at Squad 3. Why did you do such a thing?

You're a lieutenant, for god's sake. You need to control yourself.

Or were you starting to feel weak from being holed up in all those lab experiments at Squad 12?

No way! That's not the reason!

You could've just told me. I'm always down to do some training.

Here, let me help you out. Let's do a round of practice fights right now! Ready?

Wait! That's not it, you idiot! I just wanted them to know how strong I...

Dammit, will you even listen to me?!

Stop, stop, stop! Why are you so mad?

You're acting a little strange today.

You're a lieutenant of Squad 12. Everyone knows that you're skilled.

Then, explain to me why!

I heard about it from Lisa! The thing about the guest lecturer at the Academy!

No one recommended me for it, so I was going around making sure everyone knew how strong I really am!

That way, someone will vouch for me, right?

You probably only know half the story there.

Huh?

Right after the talks about the guest lecturer, we all settled on Aizen for the position with a unanimous vote.

What?!

Meaning it's pointless even if you go around trying to catch everyone's attention now.

But I...

Whaaaaat the hellllllll?!
