Bleach (1x1 with DarkMudkip)

[Jikkah]

Toni looked away from his gaze. "...No...." she said.

[DarkMudkip]

"Then I can't release you...you have to learn to behave, song bird, or something awful will happen..." He told her, tilting back up to continue his work

[Jikkah]

Toni pulled on the shakles, not liking the feeling of the cold metal against her skin. Spiritual pressure radiated from her as she struggled harder, tears of frustration flowed down her cheeks. She started up a cero, aiming it at her shackled legs.

[DarkMudkip]

Szayel looked and gasped softly, "Toni, don't!" He stated, grabbing her wrist. "Do you want to lose your legs!? For God's sake, woman, use your head!"

[Jikkah]

Toni shook her head, looked at him and letting the orb dissapear. She trembled as she hugged onto Szayel, not letting go.

[DarkMudkip]

He sighed softly and held her, "Oh, song bird...I know you don't like this new change. But, I promise, I'm doing everything I can to fix it...if not make it more bearable..." He said, tilting her head up to look at him

[Jikkah]

Toni nodded. "I'm sorry..." she said, looking into his golden eyes. She whipped away the tears, still trembling.

[DarkMudkip]

He smiled faintly and kissed her head, "You know I'll always forgive you...I can't be mad at you for long, even if I wanted to...!" He told her, "Now, I'll unshackle you if you promise to stay here and help me with my research. Ok?"

[Jikkah]

Toni nodded slowly. "Okay." she murmured and smiled weakly, liking the look of his smile.

[DarkMudkip]

He smiled more and nodded, "Good." He said and unshackled her legs. He moved back to her and gently tangled his fingers into her hair, kissing her gently
