75 – How Embarrassing
"She really becomes predictable with that temper of her, doesn't she?" Sung-Sun said.
Harribel sighed. "Yeah, she will have to learn at some point," she agreed.
"But, she did get a lot stronger due to the transformation. I wonder if I can succeed," Sung-Sun wondered sounding a little less confident than her usual self.
"Since both Mila Rose and Apacci were able to do it I'm sure you can too, " Harribel did her best to reassure her.
"I believe in you big sis," Nel Tu joined in trying to cheer Sung-Sun up.
"Thank you little one," Sung-Sun said. She sounded more like herself again.
"Before you know it, you'll be pwetty just like big sis Harribel," she responded.
She thought for a moment before breaking into a wide smile. "Maybe then he will let you ride him too, just like me. Riding him is the besht!" Nel Tu added innocently.
Harribel blushed a little at Nel Tu's innocent comments.
"What? You don't think I'm already beautiful enough?" Sung-Sun teased.
Nel Tu seemed to be thinking hard."Big brother Hitashi doesn't look at you the way he looks at big sis Harribel when he thinks no one is looking," she said eventually.
Harribel's blush grew even deeper. She lightly coughed to get their attention. "Their spar seems to be nearing the end," she said to divert the conversation.
"Oh? Don't you want to hear more about this in-te-res-ting topic, Harribel-sa...ma...?" Sung-Sun teased.
Harribel kept her eyes focused on the spar as if she didn't care, but she couldn't hide the light blush that remained on her cheeks. "No. I'm just interested in how Apacci will react once she realises she can't even make him serious," she answered trying to keep her voice as neutral as she could.
Sung-Sun rolled her eyes dramatically, but stopped teasing her leader.
Apacci was standing across from Hisashi panting heavily, her stance on the verge of breaking from exhaustion. Despite the exhaustion she was completely pristine aside from some light dirt. In the entire spar Hisashi hadn't attacked her even once yet.
His calm expression despite all her effort just pissed her off to no end. It was only a minor thing compared to the fact that she couldn't even force him to attack her when she was going all out though. She had hoped by finally achieving Vasto Lorde she would be able to push him a little. Of course she wasn't stupid enough to actually think she would win, but the final result was still depressing.
"Well I could chase you," Harribel offered.
Nel Tu had a glint in her eye, things were going just the way she wanted them to. "Big sis Harribel, is the besht!" she said.
"I though you just said I was the best?" Hisashi asked with a playful smirk.
Nel Tu hesitated for a moment. "Uh... you're both the besht!" she finally said.
Sung-Sun chuckled lightly. "Oh how fickle. How about I join too?" she said.
"Even more is even better!" Nel Tu said happily.
"Me too," Mila Rose quietly added with a slight smile.
Apacci grumbled a little, still annoyed due to her entirely one-sided loss. "I guess I can join too," she eventually conceded.
Nel Tu tilted her head cutely looking at Peshe and Dondochakka. "What about you?" she asked.
They couldn't resist the puppy dog eyes. "Of course Nel-sama!" the both vociferously agreed instantly.
With a wide smile she quickly climbed up onto Hisashi's shoulder again. "Ready... Set... Aaaand... Go!" she yelled.
Hisashi took off like a speeding train while the others tried to keep up with him. Nel Tu couldn't stop giggling. "Faster! Faster! I almost peed!" she said.
Hisashi chuckled. "You don't ever get tired of this do you?" he asked her.
"No. I'm a real masochist!" she announced.
Even being aware of her vocabulary Hisashi still had to do his best to keep a straight face.
"Sure you are Nel... sure you are..." he reassured her. He wondered how embarrassed her adult form would be.
That's how a group containing some of the most powerful Hollow in all of Hueco Mundo ended up running around in a game of endless chase while looking for their next hunt.ALL new chapters on nov(e)lbin(.)com
