Frowning at the young man who'd knocked him, Peishin shrugged.
"Just be more careful next time," he said. A moment later he had forgotten all about the incident. It was a warm morning and the sun was climbing the sky steadily. Nice morning for a walk, all told.
He came to the Blue Stream Gate and looked around for the guardian. Of course the guardians had other duties in addition to guarding the gate, but Peishin had been hoping to see his old friend briefly.
Choosing a comfortable wall, he sat down, cross legged, zanpakuto on his lap, folded his arms, and closed his eyes, letting the warmth of the sun soak into him. Itsuru should be along soon.
He opened his eyes again when a shadow fell over him.
"Ah, gatekeeper," he greeted his friend. "Take a pew."
"Don't mind if I do," said the titan, and sat beside Peishin.
The Blue Stream Gate guardian was twenty feet tall, with a handlebar moustache and sharp face behind a pointed nose. His phsyical presence was immense, but Peishin knew he was a gentle soul.
They engaged in small talk, Peishin keeping an eye out for Itsuru.

Looking at a long distance a boy with blonde buzz-cut hair was spying on Peishin talking to the gate guardian.
"Thanks for the hat Rai, This is gonna be easy, Itsuru I'm guessing is in his room having one of his "emo urges" and here I am, impersonating Beanie Boy and making him a complete dumbass and the hobo will never train with Itsuru again." said the boy with the blonde hair.
Rai was leaning by the wall stroking his chin and looking up.
"But Yakuru, What if that Peishin guy, faffs out, ya know?" questioned Rai.
Yakuru laughed as he puts on Itsuru's beanie.
"I have the same body type as Itsuru" replied Yakuru.
"Well exept for the hair and the eyes, ya know?" said Rai who was stating the obvious.
Yakuru gave Rai and heavy glare and thumpped Rai on the head.
"That is what this beanie is for, it's to cover my hair and my eyes, and besides THAT Tramp was the one who took me in the detention unit two years ago, Revenge is best served cold."
As Yakuru was ready to go in the open to make Itsuru's life a nightmare. Rai felt like another flaw in his plan.
"Ya know, you seem to be missing something, you don't have his upbeat personality and his tone of voice, smile, ya know?"
Yakuru atempt to smile was awful it looked like he was constipated so Rai gave him some quick voice coaching until Yakuru's tone sounded correct.
"Hi, I'm Itsuru, The life of the wife is ended by the knife!" starting to sound like Itsuru, Yakuru got Itsuru's rollerblades and tied it on to Koori Jun.
Yakuru (impersonating Itsuru), is walking toward Peishin and the Gate Keeper.
Back in the academy the real Itsuru was running out of the academy.

OOC: THAT Tramp was the one who took me in the detention unit two years ago, Revenge is best served cold. i realise this is probably a mistake by one of us, but i got a very, very bad image when i read this. what did you mean, exactly? what exactly are you planning to do? i'm afraid i'm a little lost as to what to do next, so if i spoil whatever you're attempting to do... i apologise in advance. ------ Peishin saw an academy student approaching, a large board tucked under one arm. He was wearing a hat. From the board alone he assumed it was Itsuru, and so continued his conversation with the gatekeeper. "This is the kid I was telling you about," he indicated 'Itsuru'. "Mitsurugi has been giving him some trouble, so I said I'd tutor him a little, try and put him on an equal footing with the other students." "He's small," said the titanic Shinigami. "He feels weak, too." "So were we at that age," Peishin reminded his friend. The giant nodded. "Why does he carry a plank of wood?" "It's not a plank of wood, it's a kind of shield, I think. I don't know why he keeps it, but he has an attachment to it, so I hold my tongue." Peishin stood as the academy student came closer. "If it keeps him quiet, he can keep it. At least I'm not getting complained at all day long. Let his superiors take it away if they want." As the kid approached, Peishin noticed something out of place. The spiritual pressure coming from this boy was weak, yes, and unstable, but that wasn't unusual in an academy student. What was unusual was; this was not Itsuru's spiritual pressure. This one was thick with spite. He chose to say nothing about it, and instead raised his hand in greeting. "Ho! Itsuru-kun, that was fast!"

OOC: Don't worry I can recover the story quicky, so don't panic Louh-San.
Yakuru's story is called a "plot-hole" (something that happens outside of the main story) he went into the Seireitai and 20th seat officers laughed at him for wearing a girls academy uniform, you found him and you arrested him for assult. You ARE a security guard Nii-san, they can do thay you know.
P.S. feel free to hair-pull if he gets out of line (he ain't got much hair up there hehe). ---
Yakuru had to say something to Peishin first he given Peishin his trademark "Humph", but then all he needs to remember is to sound peppy
"Oh C'mon, there are alternative routes to the Blue Gate but atleast I found my blades, Rai was holding them for me on Thursday, I didn't ask anyone for a flash step." Lied Yakuru
Yakuru took off the rollerblades from Itsuru's bag and puts them on the floor.
Meanwhile Itsuru was half way there running to the Blue Stream gate that Peishin told him to meet him at, but he felt like he needed a quick warm-up session.
"Just one song from my phone and a quick drink of dnL and then I'll meet up with Nii-san, I hope he isn't worried that I'm late, he needs me to up my game abit, I knew he means well about me not having Koori Jun."
Itsuru finished having a quick drink and looked at his Asauchis and drew both of them and puts one of his earphones in feeling abit conserned.
"But Koori Jun says my spirit is not ready for him, OK it's not like he is asking me to say his REAL name or resight SOME poems or anything but I wonder. what you would look like if I released you? I'd bet you would be EPIC if I see you for the first time."
Itsuru shruged his shoulder and started to focus on the here-and-now.
"But what the heck?... Zak Attack: Shockwave, 100 times! 2... 4... 6... 8..."

OOC:

---
What a strange young man, Peishin thought. I wonder what he means, 'ask somebody for a flash-step'? Is he so inept he doesn't realise what a shunpo is? What's going on? Why would someone impersonate Itsuru?
"Don't be so modest, Itsuru, I'm impressed with you. You're not even out of breath."
"Peishin-san is right," said the gatekeeper, smiling at 'Itsuru'. "That's quite a way to run and not lose your breath. You must be a lot tougher than I thought."

"98... 100... and the finisher, Zak Attack: Vortex Sabre!" Itsuru spun his body and felt more energetic. Itsuru put away his asauchi and ran to the district he'd promise he would meet Peishin, he is finally at the Blue Stream Gate he can see the giant over the distance.
"Maybe I've beaten Peishin-Nii. Nope, He seems to be there, maybe, I should try detecting spiritual energy" thought Itsuru.
Itsturu closed his eyes and focused on Peishin, he can see about four flames. the Giant's, Peishin's, one seems to be near Peishin and has an odd colour and another one over a few distance.
"He is talking to someone, well I should look around for a while. I am in no hurry."
He looked around at the shops and found one particular shop. He can remember Peishin blowing up his moblie. (The soul Society do have some good gadgets, especaily when talking on a moblie is free).
"Maybe I should take a detour get him a mobile, just to say thanks and maybe teach him to use a moblie." laughed Itsuru.
Back by the Blue Stream Gate.
Peishin was talking to Yakuru, Peishin is starting to worry if this is Itsuru or some imitation.
"Well since you and the orge say I'm hardly out of breath, lets get started! shall we?"
Not letting Peishin answer, The Itsuru imposter got his hand out towards Peishin and started to chant.
"Ye Lord, Blood of Mask Flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of man! Inferno and pandemonium, The Sea Barrier surges, march on to the south! Destuction Art 31: Shot of Red Fire"

OOC:
i'm not sure a first year could use hado 31. for now i'll let it stand, but i'll check with tort.
---
As the impostor-Itsuru began chanting, Peishin shot a warning glance to his friend. Obediently the large gatekeeper backed off, and, hearing the academy student had almost finished the incantation, he used his imperfect shunpo to sidestep the attack.
As the red destructive kido was fired, the gatekeeper leapt in its path and caught it, containing the attack from causing collateral damage to rukongai.
Peishin, on his attacker's left, used his right hand to grab the outstretched wrist and twisted him off-centre, and swung his left palm up, arm straightening, aiming to break the boy's nose. It might not have been very fair, but the boy had pissed the older Shinigami off, causing him to use about half of his strength and speed.

As the Itsuru imposter attempted to struggle from Peishin's physical restraint he was screaming and yelling.
"Let me go! You stupid hobo!" yelled Yakuru.
Itsuru heard the loud noice and went to the Blue Stream Gate to see what that racket was all about. Itsuru carrying a box was walking towards the ruckus. Then he saw Peishin restraining someone who looked like him. Itsuru checked his pocket, his beanie was stolen AND the board bag was on the floor. Itsuru was witnessing Peishin turning the boy to face him, Itsuru couldn't do anything he was petrified to see Peishin hit someone that especaily to someone who stolen his Beanie and Koori Jun.
[shadow=blue,left,300]"Yes, I want to see Peishin to smack him one, I want justice, he took things that didn't belong to him, he deserves it."[/shadow]
"Sure, maybe he deserved to be punished, but not THAT way." Thought Itsuru who is starting to flinch seeing Peishin punch the boy so hard.
Itsuru starting to get flashbacks from when he got expeled from his last school it was like seeing Peishin was him at 14 and the boy who acted like him was someone who wronged him years ago.
Still watching, he didn't want to see Peishin hit someone it was like being in a private screening of a film and all the doors are locked.
Remembering Peishin telling him if he was a man? or a mouse? If a mouse wanted to win he would run and hide, if Itsuru did that he wouldn't want to look Peishin in the eye again. But if man wanted to win he has to fight even if he loses, if Itsuru choose to fight he would get hurt along with the boy.
"I'm not a man and I'm not a mouse" thought Itsuru. Then he started to whisper what he thought, his voice became louder like he can talk then he shouted at the top of his lungs to make sure the whole Seireitai can hear his resolve.
"I am NOT a man, I am NOT a mouse, I am Zak Itsuru" shouted Itsuru.
Starting to shed a tear for his enraged Nii-san, Itsuru knew what to do, if he was going to get shouted at or get his hair pulled, then so be it.
"Nii-san, I'm sorry, I'm only doing this because I love you" said Itsuru summoning all the courage he can have.
Itsuru steping towards the brawl he was ready to do the art of binding, his best is 1 minute and 30 seconds, He'll talk to the boy and talk to Peishin next. with index and middle finger ready he is pointing at Peishin worried that he may punch the boy again.
Binding Art: Number 1 "Sai"

He'd just hit his attacker and was about to call the detention corps when Peishin felt his arms twist behind his back so his wrists touched. Both movements had been forced upon him, done without him willing it.
Ah. The first art of binding, he realised.
Itsuru stood not far away, the real Itsuru, his face sad. Peishin realised it must have been him who cast the spell. He'd assumed at first it was the gatekeeper, but no. Probing the spell with his senses he realised it wasn't as strong or as stable as the gatekeeper's would have been.
"You want help getting out of that?" asked the gatekeeper.
Peishin shook his head. His ponytail swinging. "No thanks."
Concentrating a pulse of his spiritual pressure, Peishin shattered the spell and straightened, rubbing his wrists. Not bad, Itsuru. I only taught you that a week ago. Keep practising like that and you'll go far.
He said nothing, did nothing, content to watch Itsuru confront the impostor.

Itsuru looked at the imposter and circled him he seemed pleased to have an Itsuru cosplayer smiled.
"Hey there, beautiful! ^^" said Itsuru.
The Imposter froze on the spot with a huge sweat drop when Itsuru called him "beautiful" Itsuru got his board bag open to pull out a black box no bigger then his palm of his hand he opened the lid and there was a necklace with a snowflake then he took out his sheathed Asauchi just to decorate the hilt
--- OOC: Yes Peishin-sama, the handle of the sword. ;D ---
"Hey sorry if I got involed in that fight of yours you must have been trumatized, you see I wanted to protect you first."
Yakuru is starting to be really grumpy that Itsuru got involed in the fight and starting to act buddy on him.
"Humph I didn't need protecting, loser!" replied the imposter.
"Oh come on, I know you do, us academy students have to stick together, now lets take my hat off and go look at Peishin-sama in the eye and apologize, if he attacks you, I promice I won't let him hurt you, ok?"
Itsuru took his hat from the imposters head and Peishin sees his sky blue eyes and short buzzed cut blonde hair.
"Humph, I am NOT apologizing, to Regee no ojisan."
--- OOC: Regee no ojisan = Japanese for Ungle Reggae a.k.a Bum with dirty matted hair ---
he pushed Itsuru and left the scene and gave Itsuru the middle finger.
"I'll see you in the afternoon in Mitsurugi's class, Loser"
Seeing Yakuru leave the Blue Stream Gate. Itsuru sat next to Peishin and gave a heavy drawn out sigh.
"Cody Yakuru, 2nd Year Student, If I wasn't adobted, that is who I would look like... What am I going to do with him?" confided Itsuru to Peishin.
Itsuru puts down a box with a ribbon infront of Peishin.
"I got you something to say thanks, just don't blow this one up this time ok and sorry I had use kido on you Nii-san, are you OK?"

"Cody Yakuru, eh? The detention corps will be paying him a visit soon."
Itsuru put a ribboned box at his feet.
"I got you something to say thanks," the boy said. "Are you ok?"
Peishin nodded. "I'm fine."
He turned to his friend the guardian, looking up at him in concern. The giant Shinigami was rubbing his palms together.
"You okay big guy?"
The gatekeeper nodded. "Just a scratch."
"Right." He turned to Itsuru once more, his voice low and dangerous. "You tell that kid Yakuru he's lucky. This time I'm reporting him to the detention corps, but the next time he pulls something like that, I kill him. He put innocent lives in danger as well as attacking me for no good reason."

Itsuru looked at Peishin giving him a serious tone of voice, he didn't want to say "Yeah, can I beat him up first?" he had to keep that to himself, until Peishin is back on the "father figure channel" Itsuru closed his eye and gave a nod.
"Shouldn't I get reported too for assulting you aswell Louh-sama?" asked Itsuru
Itsuru felt like it was partly his fault for not comming with Peishin in the first place.
"But I will apologize on my behalf" said Itsuru.
Itsuru looked up to check if the Blue Stream Gate Guardian is ok. He was huge so Itsuru looked way up.
"Try not to rub your hands together, I wish I could help you with healing and stuff but i'm not 4th squad, but all you need is ice or get one of my bandages I use."

The guardian of the gate smiled at Itsuru's concern. "Thanks, kid."
Peishin tapped Itsuru's collarbone. "I'm not going to report you. You tried to stop what probably looked like a fight, and there's nothing wrong with that." He folded his arms. "What the hell is going on between you and that Yakuru boy, anyway? What possible reason could he have to do this?"

Itsuru leaning on a wall starting to drink.
"Peishin-Nii, Do you remember when I said this to you? "I just wanted to make it in everyday school life, every teenager's life is a battlefield." - Drink's up! 5th Squad Party! (Pg. 2)
"When I first came to the academy I wasn't strong or smart... On the first night of my first year you can say "I was playing with fire" and "he was walking on thin ice". So to be frank with you, there was bad blood between us from day one."

"Yeah, I remember," Peishin said, though struggled to actually call it to mind.
So, there's some kind of rivalry going on between them. Itsuru better be careful - if Yakuru was crazy enough to attack a ninth seat, he's capable of some real damage among the students.
"Right, he slapped his palms together loudly. "I've changed my mind about your lesson today. Seeing as my good friend, the Guardian of the Blue Stream Gate, is here, we're going to involve him too."
He paused, glanced at the other Shinigami. "That is, if you don't mind?"
"Not at all," said the giant, shrugging.
"Alright! Okay, Itsuru, today we're studying hakuda. Do you remember what that means?"
