"Everybody! Gather 'round!" Yachiru yelled eagerly, bouncing up and down in excitement. The group of people who had been summoned (for some, more like "forced" and "blackmailed") to the 11th Division surrounded the little fukutaicho, some looking apprehensive, some bored, and some amused. Yachiru gave them all a big grin before continuing.

"Thank you all SOOO much for coming!" she started, "Today, we are going to play a fun new game Big Boobies told me about that comes from the living world!"

Several people gave the strawberry blonde an accusing glare, the most reproachful being from her own taicho. If looks could kill, Rangiku would have dropped dead on the spot.

"Matsumoto…" growled said taicho, Toshiro.

"Eh? Taicho, calm down! It's not my fault! I didn't think she'd actually want to play it!" Rangiku defended herself.

"Hey! Whitey and Big Boobies! Shut up!" Yachiru shouted, pointing an accusing finger at the two offenders. "As I was saying…" she continued, "We are all going to play… HIDE AND GO SEEK!"

Everyone present silently stared at the pink haired girl, not entirely sure how to respond. Until, finally…

"Well then, I'll be going back to my Division now." Byakuya stated. "I have no time for such childish games. Renji, if you want, you may stay. You are not needed."

And with that, the regal man strode away, leaving an unhappy Yachiru behind him.

"Hey, hey! Bya-kun! That's no fun!" she pouted, actually stamping her foot in annoyance. "Oh well!" she turned to the remaining shinigami, grinning. "We can still play without that big old party pooper! Ok, so, who wants to seek?"

Another silence.

"Seek what?" Ikkaku asked, peeved. "Not all of us know how to play this ridiculous game, fukutaicho. In fact, screw this, I'm going to go train!"

He began to leave as well, following Byakuya's beeline to the exit, when Yachiru's voice stopped him.

"Fine, I guess Cueball doesn't want to win the prize." She said with a shrug. The bald man's ears pricked at this, as did numerous others in the crowd. The same thought seemed to rush through all their minds at once. No one said anything about a prize…

"What, may I ask, is this most wondrous prize that you speak of, fukutaicho?" Yumichika asked, curiosity sparking in his eyes.

"You'll find out if you win! The prize was bought with money from the Shinigami Women's Association, so it's super duper amazingly awesome!" Yachiru cried, happy to finally have everyone's undivided attention.

"So, how do you play?" Renji asked, already getting pumped. He loved a challenge.

"It's simple, Pineapple-Head! All you gotta do is hide really, really well, so no one can find you! But if the person who's seeking does find you, you gotta help them find everyone else. The last person to be found is the winner!" Yachiru exclaimed.

"Sorry, but I agree with Kuchiki-san, this sounds childish. I'm leaving." Toshiro declared, turning to leave.

"But Shiro-chan! I wanted to play with you!" said Momo, tugging on Toshiro's sleeve. Several people snickered quietly to themselves. It was impossible for the stoic 10th Division taicho to refuse the 5th Division fukutaicho.

Toshiro sighed. "How many times do I have to tell you? It's Hitsugaya-taicho, not Shiro-chan, Bed-wetter Momo."

"That's mean, Shiro-chan!" Momo said cheerfully, smiling as Toshiro's eyebrow twitched. A pause, and then…

"Fine, I'll play." He said, a very faint blush sweeping across his face.

"Yay! Whitey's playing!" Yachiru shouted, jumping around some more. She abruptly stopped, and turned to the suddenly very eager group of shinigami. "Okies, so who's going to seek?"

No one wanted to volunteer. To become the seeker would be to sacrifice the chance of winning the prize.

"No one?" Yachiru demanded, looking around. "Fine, fine, YOU! You're the seeker!"

"Who, me?!" Hanataro asked, startled, as Yachiru pointed at him.

"Yes, you! Now start counting to 100, Turtle!" Yachiru cried happily, as she skipped out of the 11th Division.

"100?!" Hanataro exclaimed, eyes wide. He wasn't even entirely sure why he was here, never mind why he was supposed to count to 100.

"Good luck kid!" Ikkaku said with a smirk, running off with a stampede of people following close behind.

"Why me?" Hanataro thought as he sighed, starting to count to 100…

I was playing hide and seek with the kids I babysit when this idea hit me.

This is going to be a multi-chapter story. Each chapter shows where a different shinigami is hiding until Hanataro (or someone else) manages to find them in the final chapter.

Anyway, give me ideas where everyone can hide. Anywhere in the Gotei 13 is fair game, so please help me out with hiding spots for everyone! Plus, who else you'd like to see playing. Obviously the people I mentioned above are playing, but if there is anyone else you'd like to see make an appearance, please let me know!

And please review! This story is kinda relying on all of you, so do your part!

…but no pressure, right? ^.^;

Either way, thank you for reading!
