Report 002 [Accidental Video]
[ The PCD begins recording on its own, revealing the side of a building and the familiar garden scenery of Unohana's clinic. The angle from which the video is recording makes it clear the device is on the ground, probably leaning against a rock or a bush. Situated in a patch of dirt between two flowering bushes is Hitsugaya himself, small enough to hide among the plants as he sits down and leans his back against the clinic's side wall. His zanpakutou (sword) is not on his back but unsheathed, blade pointing toward the sky as it leans against the wall next to him. Hitsugaya is speaking on and off, but even though there is no audible response, he carries on the one-sided conversation as if there is. ]
I'd prepared myself for every possible outcome, every possible attack Aizen could have carried out. I'd run every possible scenerio through my mind countless times and steeled myself to accept them. I just didn't prepare myself for the impossible.
[ Silence, before Hitsugaya speaks again, sounding aggitated. ]
Tch. Well obviously it was possible, but it should have been impossible. Time compression? Combining worlds and dimensions? I couldn't have prepared for something like this.
[ Silence. ]
I know that no one is blaming me. I never said anyone was. I wasn't being defensive; I was only making an observation.
[ More silence. ]
I am not. There are several other captains here as well. Clearly it has nothing to do with ability. Even if it did, there's nothing I could do about it. I'll just have to offer my services here and hope they're worth something.
[ You get the picture by now, right? ]
...Must you persist with that? I told you. I'm not blaming myself. It would be ridiculous and childish to do so.
[ A pause before his brows furrow in frustration and he picks up the zanpakutou, replacing it at his back. ]
Honestly. You're worse than Matsumoto sometimes. Unohana-taichou mentioned something about hunting. I might take her up on that.
[ He reaches for the PCD and holds it up, realizing that it's recording. A frown, and then the feed cuts off. ]
