Names

"Sorry, I couldn't resist. So? Why am I tied up?" The boy looked at the two of them with a shy smile, however, his eyes were completely attentive and his only hand was moving silently through his body to let go.

Rangiku and Gin heard the boy's question and felt bad. But, Rangiku cocked his head to the side looking at the boy behind Gin with a guilty look.

"Sorry, we can't allow you to be free in our house without knowing if you're a threat!" Gin replied quietly with a guilty tone.

"it's ok if it were me I would do the same thing!" The boy watched them and relaxed leaning against the wall looking calm.

Rangiku and Gin were surprised by the boy's answer and the feeling of guilt hit once again Rangiku asked

"Who are you?"

The boy raised his head in surprise to talk about him, but the name didn't come. Despite being on the tip of his tongue it was like the fake sneeze. He tempts you, making you keep trying to sneeze, but nothing comes of it.

He then, not knowing what to do, took the freshest things in his head to name. The idea was good, the person he was in the past life died or partially died.

It was time for him to be a new person with two names coming to his mind.

He said "I don't remember much, I just remember my name, I'm Ryujin I. Acnologia, but you can call Acnologia or Ryujin"

"I."

"Izanami!"

The names he put on himself were The name of the goddess who brought him to this world, The name of the actual owner of this body, and the name of the species of the body.

I: The Goddess

Acnologia: Body

Ryujin: Dragon

Rangiku and Gin were surprised by his name. They have never seen such a different name as Acnologia. The two began to think that with the exotic name maybe he was a noble or something. Perhaps because he was born a cripple, his family abandoned him in the forest waiting for him to die!

Without wasting much time, Rangiku started asking more and more questions and starting to get more excited. At first, Ryujin was a little scared of such a change, but he remembered her personality in the anime.

He answered all her questions with simple answers made up of

I do not remember.

No

Yea

He made a point of assuring her that he wasn't from a noble family and that his arm was ripped off by an attack by an annoying giant lizard.

What caught the attention of Rangiku and Gin who recognized the creature as a Hollow, a pity that Ryujin wasn't talking about a Hollow but about Igneel the dragon that took Acnologia's arm.

However, having the two of them talk about the Hollow made Ryujin sure he was in Bleach's world. He then only had one thought that the mad goddess had sent him to a different world than he thought he would.

Quickly time passed and their conversations started to be closer with Rangiku leading the conversation excitedly while Ryujin and Gin followed her talking. The fear and dread the two had of Ryujin began to wear off. Making the possibility of unbarring the boy begin to appear in their minds.

It all came to a head when in a single moment Ryujin's stomach rumbled like a dragon's roar. Making the boy feel embarrassed for such a situation to have happened to him since he was a proud, fearful, but very proud adult in the other life.

Seeing Ryujin's embarrassment. Rangiku lost all the rest of the fear he had. she finally realized that Draco was just a soul like her in the same situation as her and not a monstrous dragon that would kill her and destroy her village.

Gin smiled at Rangiku's stupor and offered to take the ropes off of Ryujin which she gladly accepted to be untied, though he could untie himself from the ropes. Only, she didn't because she didn't want to generate more distrust between the two.

Taking Ryujin's ropes off, Gin helped him up and Rangiku apologize took a piece of bread leftover from the last day which neither of them had the urge to eat since they had filled their stomachs earlier with oranges.

Ryujin happily accepted the bread and as he ate the bread, Rangiku and Gin spoke to him about where they were. They explained to him about soul society, about Reiatsu, and about the district they were in, and why they were suspicious of him.

Remember a little about the anime. Ryujin realized that being in District 64 was far from the center of the eastern branch of the Soul Society and that the place was probably hell to live in.

Just looking at the wooden house where he was with many holes in the upper part and even some parts where you could see the full moon because the holes were so big. He just made it clear that the district situation was horrible for people like Ryu, Rangiku, and Gin who had Reatsu and needed to eat.

After being released, Ryujin managed to lean into the corner of the house leaning close to some firewood that was burned outside and placed in a steel cauldron that was generating heat.

In the meantime, Gin left the house leaving Ryujin talking to Rangiku and came back outside with some oranges. Rangiku was the first to run to him and get the oranges.

She took the oranges from Gin's hands and divided the oranges as 5 for her, 2 for Gin, and 2 for Ryujin. The two just watched her make the unfair division, but they didn't say anything because she knew they wouldn't win the argument with someone so energetic

Ryujin took him without worrying too much, as two oranges were enough to sustain him for some time. as he has already gone through some moments of near-starvation when some deputies decided to take populist measures and blame their inefficiency in dealing with the economy on the businessmen and his store went almost bankrupt with him starving

While he ate his last orange. Rangiku looked at Ryu remembering that she forgot something

"Ahh sorry I didn't introduce myself, I'm Rangiku Matsumoto and He's Ichimaru Gin-- It's nice to meet you Ryujin-kun"

"Nice to meet you Gin and Rangiku!"
