Two of a Kind (Amaya and Tora)

Tora ignored the girl and kept staring at the vacant spot in the floor, she had never killed anybody before, the worst she had done was knock them out. Tora wished she had someone to comfort her, she wished Renji was here, he would say all the right things and get her to feel better, but he was away on a mission, she was alone.

Amaya looked down at the ground. She didn’t know how to comfort her teammate or make her feel better. “Do-you-have-a-boy-friend” she asked to try and start a conversation.

As soon as the words left Amaya's mouth her thoughts automatically turned to Renji, Toras mood evaporated and she giggled as if she was sharing a joke with herself "I might" she smiled dreamily, he thoughts making her lose focus on the man she had just killed "what about you, with your pretty features I'm sure the guys would be all over you" Tora had a good way of making people feel good about themselves without even meaning to.

Amaya smiled and nodded her head yes. She may not of looked it but she was already in the early stages of pregnancy. “Does-He-Have-A-Name” She asked in sign language.

She nodded, of course he had a name "well I guess Renji and I are kinda together" she quickly blurted out and covered her mouth with her hands, he was in the organization after all and she wasn't sure if romances were allowed, she was new after all.

It was Renji eh. Amaya had been on missions with him before. He was smart, handsome, caring. “L-U-C-K-Y” she spelt with a little laugh.

Tora laughed back and fiddled with her fingers, she certainly felt lucky, she winked at her and nudged her gently in the ribs "I bet your guy is just as sweet as mine, does he have a name, is he in the guild?"

The last two questions were as yes though she wished she could say the same for question number one. “Z-E-N-T-S-U” she spelt.

Tora nearly chocked on her words "Zentsu, as in of the demon hidden in the mist?" she had had a run in with him numerous times, they wern't enemies, I guess. You would classify it as a lie hate relationship, he had tried 'things' on her in the past and had almost succeeded once into bedding her, luckily the drugs wore off in time.

She nodded her head yes. Judging by her reaction she met him before and it probably of the good sort either.

"so you and him huh, let's just say we've had a couple of run ins in the past" she absentmindedly rubbed her neck where he had bitten her a few times.

Well Amaya certainly made this conversation awkward. Maybe if she took the topic back to Renji, “ALL-THE-GIRLS-IN-THE-GUILD-HAVE-A-CRUSH-ON-R-E-N-J-I.” she signed smiling. It was a sort of friendly warning to watch out for the other girls.

She giggled and turned her thoughts back to Renji, his sweet smile, when she tripped he always caught her, he was caring and kind "wait, when you mean all tue girls you don't mean yourself do you?" she winked playfully and started to let her thoughts wander as she started to day dream.

She was unfortunately guilty. She nodded yes with a little blush. “Do-not-worry-I-have-mine” She signed. Soon Amaya’s stomach started to make sounds. “Are-you-hungry” she asked to see if her teammate was hungry also.

Tora nodded As her stomach responded by growling as well and she laughed, "have you got anything to eat?" she said ignoring the dead body

Amaya nodded and pulled out a scroll. She usually doesn’t take them on her mission just in case the enemy got a hold of them. But since it was just going to be just her and her teammate she made an exception. She unrolled the scroll and then smeared blood on it. A cloud of smock appeared and when it appeared there appeared the food. The side of the scroll that was closer to Tora had a plate containing of a slice of turkey, mashed potatoes, a corn on the cob, and a slice of cake. On Amaya’s side however there were 6 glass cups. Each cup had a disgusting looking color. It was a drink of juiced carrots, and peaches mixed in with water and finely diced pieces of meat floating around. A normal person would have thrown up just by looking at it let alone drinking it. But Amaya started chugging one done as if it was just a normal glass of apple juice.

Tora looked at the cups then back at Amaya quizzically "why only liquid?" she asked looking back down at her own food, she cringed at the turkey and mashed potato, Tora was a vegan and didn't eat any meat or foods made by animals such as milk, she picked up the corn cob and bit off a peice "for future reference I'm a vegan" she explained

Amaya finished off the first cup and smiled at Tora’s remark. At least she knew that she wouldn’t have to hunt on their mission. “to-answer-your-question” Amaya signed. She opened her mouth wide to show it to Tora. Her tongue had been cut out down to the very last cell. That was why she only talked through sign language.

Tora gasped, who would have done such a thing "that must have hurt, but why would anyone do such a thing to a sweet girl?" she asked

“Long-Story-It-will-bore/boring-you” She signed. She took another cup to drink. With her tongue gone she couldn’t taste it as it went to her throat.

She nodded, Tora realised that she probably didnt want to relive it and ate her meal in silence "so care to inform me of our mission?"

“Even-I-do-not-know” She signed. Their orders would be sent to them in the morning. Amaya took another cup of the discussing liquid and started drinking it down.

She yawned after her meal was finished and layed back on the far wall away from the man "I'm gonna get some sleep then" she said and closed her eyes, only to fall into her usual nightmare.
Soon enough the screaming started

Amaya went to sleep too. She awoke every so often to the sounds of Tora screaming but then would go back to sleep. She had nightmares of her own. Remember that “day when everything changed”.

Tora jolted awake in the middle of the night and attempted to punch the air "NO!" she yelled then realised that she was in no danger. She looked across to where Amaya was sleeping quietly and scooted herself across the floor to the corner, where she tucked her knees to her chest and rested her chin on them, she knew if she went back to sleep that nightmare woulod just reappear so she would stay awake until morning.
