Chapter 1: A new captain arrives…

The nine captains stood in two lines, facing each other and some blank spots, the head captain of squad one sat in front of the two lines awaiting to introduce the new captain. He slid his bitten off nails across the top of the cane, tracing the edged in marks before licking his lips and standing up, "I've called you all here to introduce the new ninth squad captain, if she was here rig-" as if on cue, a short and thinly built women entered the meeting room, her captain's jacket flew back at the sudden gust of wind from the doors. "Sorry, I'm here!" She spoke out loud, rushing to her new spot as her boots instead of sandals hit the floor every step in the quiet room. "Never mind, she is here, everyone please meet the new ninth squad captain, Takai Jung, make her feel welcome among us captains." The old man spoke, one hand raised and flattened to gesture to the new women standing between kamamura, the rather large man made it near impossible to see past him to her and so did Kenpachi who scooted ever closer to whisper, "How strong are you?" Only to get an elbow in his hip, pushing him back to his place and giving her space. "You guys can call me Jung or Takai, I don't mind!" Her white hair lay past her hips; a French braid made it go only that length and laid it over her shoulder to show off the glorious length. Her white eyes were like Gin's rarely seen eyes but they held that generous sparkle of Aizen's brother who died when she was little. "Now that she has been introduced, lets get on to business, bounts have appeared in the human world, Takai, I request you stay here until more information in known but if it comes to it and they get close to winning, you will defeat them understood?" Nod, a simple gesture before they were dismissed the hunt began for Toshiro to get more information and Takai to visit her friend while things were still calm.

Once most captains left including Takai, the only presence left was three captains; Jui Feng of 2nd division, Toshiro Histugaya of 10th division and Jushiro Ukitake of 13th division. They stood silent once the coast was clear before the comments began. "She seems odd...suspicious even...I never even heard of that soul reaper until today!" Feng's voice was spiteful about the new captain of 9th division. "Calm down, Feng." Ukitake's soft voice hoped to calm the strict women to not say such things about a new captain but Toshiro did not help. "I've never seen such a captain outfit and she wears boots instead of traditional sandals!" Feng spoke, interrupting Toshiro fast and unpleasantly. "Captain Feng, calm down now! This is not the time to distrust the new captain, if you're so suspicious then go ask captain Kurotsuchi about her data. For now we have to get more information on the bounts that appeared." He turned towards the door, not accepting any other comments from either of the captains and being the strong commander he was, he left swiftly to get the patrols out. Ukitake was smiling ever so softly before going in to a coughing fit, Feng sighed, helping Ukitake back to his squad's barracks. Her suspicions were not ending there, she was far too curious to let this new captain be a mystery.
