Captain Retsu Unohana of Squad Four liked to believe she was a patient woman. Despite this the new Captain Kenpachi Zaraki was getting on her last nerve. Every day a dozen or so Shinigami were sent to her barracks because they'd 'irked' him. unohana had sent several warnings by Hell Butterfly, but he'd been sending his Lieutenant and adoptive daughter Yachiru Kusajishi with boxes containing their wings. Now he'd attacked Hanataro Yamada, head of the 14th High Aid Corps and worked under Unohana. Hanataro was a gentle shinigami, and it was the last straw for retsu.
"Captain Kenpachi Zaraki!" It was
dawn when Unohana burst past the other Squad 11 members outside Kenpachi's private quarters. No one had even gotten out of their sleep wear or ready for the day. Ikkaku had an amused look on his face which he exchanged with Renji and Yumichika. They thought Kenpachi was about to prove no one should bother him. Think again.
"What's your problem, Retsu?" Kenpachi was over a foot and a half taller then her, and with out his eye patch and hair down, his spiritual pressure was immense. None the less Unohana stood before him, height difference leaving her unaffected.
"It's Captain Unohana, and you are my problem, Captain Zaraki! behavior is intolerable!" She snapped.
"We're both captains, no reason to be formal. What about it bothers you, Retsu?" Kenpachi sneered.
"You hack and slash indiscriminately!" She shouted. "Shinigami are your allies! And you flood the infirmary with nearly mortal wounds! My squad is overworked! You /must/ stop attacking allies! And call me Captain Unohana!"
"What can you do about it if I don't," Kenpachi smirked down at her, "Retsu?"
Unohana glared at him, her eyes narrowing as her hand fell on the blade of her Zanpakuto.
"Minazuki," She whispered, her unbraided hair floating, "Ban-Kai."
A blood curling scream filled the Seireitei as hundreds upon thousands of wounds appeared on Kenpachi. He collapsed to the ground twitching as his legs could no longer hold him. He continued to howl as Unohana sheathed her blade.
"My ban-kai is an ability called 'Blood Stained Blade'." She began to to braid her hair as she explained, "Its effect varies from person to person. Say the last boy you attacked-Hanataro? It would have minimal effect. You see, Minazuki reads the history of an Zanpakuto, nameless or not. At that point any wound you have ever inflicted on another being is returned to you. Once you can form words, have one of your squad members bring you to the Squad Four barracks. Your wounds will be treated. Though I warn you, my squad members are overworked and may be tired. No one is perfect so mistakes can be expected. By the way," Her braid fell behind her as she stepped over him and to the exit, "It's Captain Unohana."
"Captain Zaraki!"
Kenpachi laid on his back in complete agony in a pool of his own blood and yet there was a goofy look on his face. Yachiru was there first and she seemed to understand as Ikkaku, Yumichika, and Renji ran in. Yumichika gasped and Ikkaku double took.
"Captain," Renji questioned, "Are you...?"
"That was the single most agonizing moment in my life." Kenpachi stated, "She faced me head on while I was at full power and me shriek, howl, and curl up in a fetal position."
"We will make her pay for this!" Ikkaku suggested.
"If you lay so much as a finger on her I take your arm." Kenpachi barked.
"Yeah, let the Captain get his own revenge." Renji added.
"Not what this is about." Kenpachi replied, laying back down and shutting his eyes.
"I don't follow." Yumichika stated. Yachiru beamed at Kenpachi before looking up at them.
"Kenny's in love!"
