Today was the day he thought he would never live to see. Today was the day he was going to the world of the living to arrest someone close, well if close can be considered as growing up together then separating for 40 years. He was going to arrest Rukia Kuchiki—his childhood sweetheart.
As he finally reached his captains office he got a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach, his captain wasn't just one of the strongest captains the soul society has ever know he was the man who had taken Rukia from him so many years ago. This is the reason why Renji had striven to become stronger and reach the rank of lieutenant at the lowest, just so he could prove himself worthy of Rukia and maybe get her back that way. So he could prove that he wasn't just a stray dog howling at the stars.
Being placed in squad 6 just worked out in his favor.
He slowly reached for the door handle but paused when he touched the cold metal. Would any of this have happened if ii had told her to stay with me? He shook his head slowly. No she would still be here with me. He pulled his hand away from the door and sighed loudly. He looked around and sat on the bench that was outside the door. He put his elbows on his knees and his head in his hands.
That day always brought back bad memories. Memories of regret and disappointment in himself. I could have told her anything, anything I could have told her to stay with me. But all I did was go on and on about how great her life was going to be.
"That was the Kuchiki family Renji. They want to adopt me as their daughter. T-they say that they will let me graduate immediately and place me into the 13th squad. I- I don't know what to do."
"What? Of course you know what to do! You say yes Rukia! You have an amazing opportunity and you shouldn't pass it up! Plus you get to graduate immediately! This is perfect!"
Rukia paused "y-you think so?"
"Of course this is amazing" Renji continued to smile even though on the inside he was dying silently begging her not to leave him behind.
Rukia reached up and grabbed his hands with tears forming in her eyes threating to spill over at any given moment. "Thank you." She whispered as he turned and left. Her footsteps echoed through the room and down the hall as she ran off to her new life.
Don't go after her Renji, she deserves this. Don't be the one to hold her back. Renji thought as he tried to remain calm. Don't go after her.
Dammit it feels worse every time. He rubbed his eyes and slowly glanced up at the clock. Ten minutes and then I leave. He stood up straightened his clothes and once again reached for the door handle. He slowly turned and walked inside the door as it was opened.
"Morning captain."
"are you ready to depart?"
"yes."
His captain slowly rose out of his chair and headed for the door when he was out Renji followed like the respected lieutenant he was.
"Remember the mission, arrest Rukia Kuchiki. Use force if necessary."
"Yes sir."
When Byakuya walked through the gates Renji followed what a great way to reunite with the love of your life.
