Author's Note: Hi everyone! I finally got the courage to create my first fanfic. throws confetti So, if you want to shred the story into tiny pieces, feed it to your dog, or whatever, be my guest. So yeah, a bit of criticism is cool with me. If it's positive comments, I'll send you pocky.
Note: I've made the story, action and a bit of humor. There are a lot of angst stories, so I wanted to try to make one that didn't have that. There are YoruSoi moments, but that will be later on. By the way, Hollows appear in the story.
I don't own Bleach or any other characters.
Unspoken Words
Chapter 1: The Mission
----
In the forest
----
It was a full moon and a sudden cry echoed the Soul Society. A group of men wearing black yukatas, led by a petite figure, sprinted unnoticeably through the dark forest where the loud cry was heard. Shinigamis surrounded the forest, the giant creature appeared before them, ready to devour any death gods that prevented him from eating anyone.
"INSTEAD OF CHASING MY FOOD. THEY COME TO ME," the monster laughed menacingly.
The creature had a round white mask, two black oblong-shaped eyes, a gigantic red body, and fat orange tentacles on his back.
A body stood in front of the creature, she had two long braids attached to her short black hair and cold silver eyes that glared. "How I despise Hollows… MEN! GO!" she commanded, dashing towards the monster ready to attack.
The Hollow shoved the death gods then consumed some of them. Blood splattered everywhere, swords were reflected back to their users, the menace was too strong for them to kill.
The 2nd division captain, took out her Zanpakuto, " Kill Instantly, Suzumebachi!" She darted her blade into the creature's shoulder, where a black butterfly tattoo showed. "One more time, and it should do it," Soi Fong smirked.
The Hollow grabbed her body and pinned her to the ground. The captain performed her flash cry technique that made the creature back away from her.
Soi Fong quickly tried to target his shoulder again, but the Hollow disappeared.
'Nani? Where'd he go?' cautiously scanning her surroundings.
A Shinigami appeared beside the captain. "Captain! The creature went that way!" pointing towards the village.
Immediately, she ordered her men to go straight there, but before Soi Fong followed, the very same Shinigami bit her right arm, transforming back to his original form. "FOOLED YOU CAN'T USE YOUR SWORD NOW, MISSY," the creature bit her arm harder.
Unable to use her arm, she turned Suzumebachi into a katana. Soi Fong took action and used her japanese sword to smash the Hollow's mask, using her left hand.
The monster shouted in pain and lets go of Soi Fong's arm. Holding up his cracking mask, "SHINIGAMIS DON'T TASTE THAT GOOD ANYWAYS. I PREFER HEPLESS HUMANS." The Hollow smiled mischievously, "I'LL KILL YOU SOMEDAY…" and the monster warped back to Hell.
Blood dripped off Soi Fong's right arm. 'Ack, the pest injured my arm, I can't use Suzumebachi for awhile.'
"Captain! Are you alright?" one of her men asked.
"Hai. I'm fine. Although, the creature escaped…" holding up her right arm.

3 days later…
---
Each Shinigami members were minding their own business in their divisions, either it was training, patrolling the neighborhood, paperwork in the office, or just relaxing.
The 2nd division captain, Soi Fong, rested quietly underneath the large Sakura tree after her appointment from 4th division's hospital. Thanks to Unohana Retsu, the 4th division captain, her right arm has recovered. She longing stared at the tree, remembering the memories she has spent with her former mistress, Shihouin Yoruichi. Soi Fong looked up at the clouds passing by and spotted a cloud formed like cat. 'I wonder what Yoruichi-sama is doing, right now.' A small smile formed on her face, but she frowned at the sudden thoughts of conflict that loomed in mind. 'I cannot stop thinking about Yoruichi-sama. I miss her… Even though I may see her sometimes, it's different. Every time we finish a mission together, I always have to go straight home. No moments to spend with her, like before.' Soi Fong closed her eyes trying to remove her thoughts. Once opening them, she stared at the pink petals slowly floating away, "Yoruichi-sama..."
Suddenly, a hell butterfly flew around her, and a voice spoke, it was the 8th division lieutenant, Ise Nanao. "To all Women Soul Society members, after lunch, there will be a meeting in headquarters regarding an important mission. Please be prompt, do not be late." The dark butterfly fluttered away.
Soi Fong scowled at the message, "Might as well go."
Hearing the notice, a tall shadow behind the tree mischievously smiled and followed Soi Fong to the meeting.

Women's Soul Society
---
In the women's headquarters, every female sat in their assigned seats and started talking with one another. Soi Fong sat silently and waited for the meeting to start.
Nanao entered the room and fixed her glasses, facing everyone, "Good afternoon everybody. Thank you for being here today. Before we begin, we have a visitor in the Women's Soul Society, her name is…what IS your name may I ask?" Nanao asked the girl who just entered the room.
The tall girl wore a black Soul Society yukata and she had red long glossy hair tied up in a bun with chopsticks, rosy-red cheeks, a black-designed tattoo on her forehead with lots of violet eye shadow, and red-lipstick which made her face look overly make-up. The girl began to speak in a high-pitched tone, "Umm, teehee! My name is Ren-. . ." she quickly covered her mouth and continued, "Oh! Yes! I'm Abarai RenRen! Yes that's my name! I'm from 6th division! Please to meet you all!"
Whispers spread across the room.
"I didn't know 6th division had a new member," one murmured.
"Neither did I."
"Her name sounds oddly familiar."
"I swear her make-up is too much, and what is up with her tattoo? It looks weird." the 10th vice-captain, Rangiku Matsumoto, commented.
The red-haired girl panicked, 'Ack! My cover is almost being blown off!'
"Now, now everyone settle down so that I can begin the announcement regard to this meeting. Please give respect to our guest and make her feel welcome." Nanao fixed her glasses and offered her a seat.
"A-arigatou," the girl thanked.
"As I was saying, the purpose of this meeting is that I have been ordered by 1st division captain, Shigekuni Yamamoto Genryusai, to assign one of you to stay in the human world. After the Hollow attack 3 days ago, more Hollows have appeared in the human world, so more Shinigamis are needed there." Nanao announced receiving a commotion of noise from everyone.
Soi Fong's eyes widen, 'This might be my only opportunity to stay with Yoruichi-sama. Although, if I do go, that means I have to leave my job for awhile. But still... knowing Nanao-san, she would pick a Shinigami who is seriously reliable and responsible.' A slight frown of disappointment appeared on Soi Fong's face.
'As soon as she decides, I'll raise my hand,' the visitor had a wide smile plastered on her face, making Matsumoto move away from the creepy aura she was getting from her.
Nanao fixed her glasses and continued, "Now, I shall decide who will go…"
Matsumoto eagerly raised her hand, "Pick Me! Pick Me! I want to go! I'll kick those Hollow's butts and not only that! I'll buy lots of make-up and great presents for all of you!"
'Gah! That bitch got to me first!' the girl thought angrily.
"I'm afraid I cannot pick you Matsumoto-san, your captain, Hitsugaya Toshiro, cannot permit you to go, because you have not done your paperwork for the past two weeks." Nanao replied.
"Aww! That party pooper. . ." Matsumoto pouted sadly.
'Phew…'
Unexpectedly there was a knock on the door. It was the 6th division captain, Kuchiki Byakuya. "Excuse me, but has anyone seen my vice-captain, Abarai Renji?" Byakuya asked in a serious cool tone.
The red-haired girl looked at Byakuya nervously, hoping that he does not recognize the person behind the yukata.
"Abarai? Sounds familiar when have I've heard of that name..." the woman with glasses wondered while tapping her pen and eyed the red-haired guest who looked uneasy in her seat. The 8th division vice-captain smiled impishly, "Gomen ne, Captain Kuchiki-san, we have not seen Abarai-san anywhere."
"Ah, If you do encounter my lieutenant, please inform him that there is an important meeting in our headquarters. I do apologize for interrupting." he nodded and left.
Right after the 6th division captain left, the red-haired girl hurriedly raised her hand, "I would like to do this assignment sempai! I'm willing to work hard!" Starry-like eyes appeared in the her face which caused everyone to surprisingly stare at her.
"Eh?! But you are just a visitor RenRen-san. This mission is for the women who are only part of Women's Soul Society. I'm sorry but look too weak to defeat a Hollow," Nanao clarified, while wiping her glasses.
An angry mark appeared on the girl and shouted, "Nani?! I assure you lady! That I am capable of defeating any Hollows! I may not be a woman, but. . ." a more manly voice occurred. "I'm going to prove to Kurosaki that I am better than him at any fights in his life and that he can't protect Rukia-chan properly!" she yelled and stood up with his fist up high, then a small pillow suddenly dropped off the girl's yukata.
Everyone gasped.
"It seems we have an imposter in our meeting today..." the 8th division lieutenant said strictly and took off the red-head girl's disguise. "ABBARAI! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!?" she shouted at the same time everybody laughed.
The 11th division pink-haired lieutenant, pointed to Renji laughingly, "Renji-niisan is a cross dresser!"
Renji blushed and glaced at the girls giggling at him, "Ah, I wanted to go back with Kurosaki and um..this is embarrassing..." he tried to ran out the door, but tripped.
"You do know that the Men Soul Society will be assigning the same mission. That is why Captain Kuchiki was looking for you. One male and female Shinigamis are required for this mission." Nanao explained, looking down at the clumsy Shinigami.
"Eh?! Oh My God! Baka!" Renji got up and quickly ran to the Men's headquarters.
The lieutenant cleared her throat, "Ahem! Now that's taken care of, let us proceed." She looked over at Soi Fong, who looked utterly serious and attentive. "I've decided that 2nd division captain, Soi Fong, will be disperse this mission, since she's the only one who is quiet enough to take this mission seriously."
'What?! But! What about my job?' the silver-eyed girl thought in a panic.
"I will simply explain to you, Shigekuni-san's orders." the lieutenant read the notice. "Your objective in this mission is to eliminate any Hollows that will harm anyone. You shall be working along with your partnered Shinigami. According to 1st division captain, with two elite Shinigamis patrolling the human world, there will be less deaths. Next, you will be staying in the human world for the time-being until you are ordered to return. Bring any important belongings you'll need and try to adapt in the human world, in order to survive. The mission starts tomorrow morning. Meet at the Gate an hour early with your partner. Understood?"
'I want to accept the mission, but it would be selfish of me, leaving my squads behind for my personal desire to see Yoruichi-sama.'
"I do not mean to object, but I am the general of the military and the police squad of the Special Forces in the Soul Society. What about my men? Without me, they are hopeless." Soi Fong stated downheartedly feeling she might not able to participate in this mission.
"Ah, yes of course. I'm sure that Captain Yanmamoto-san will assign someone to temporarily take your job until you come back. He will choose a responsible Shinigami to take care them." Nanao replied with confidence.
"Um… Hai. Arigatou. It is an honor, for choosing me with this task, Nanao-san. Please tell the 1st division captain that I deeply trust him with my troops," she stood up and bowed down properly with a hint of a smile on her face.
