Hey guys! It's been WAY TOO LONG. I haven't written anything in ages. *cries* I've had all sorts of problems. You could say that real life came along and slapped me across the face. Anyway, this is a new story, but I'll be doing a lot of work on it. There'll be different versions basically. Each character who's in the idol group gets their own story. This is a plot that's been stuck in my head for a little while now, inspired by Morning Musume. Quite a few characters will be in the idol group, so this whole idol series may take me up to a year to finish! Shall be fun! *laughs* Like I said, I've had this idea for a little while now, and it's all planned in my head. So I'll be focusing completely on this. I may go back to my old stories (I may rewrite a few) but for now, idolness!

The reason why Grimmjow's the secondary character is because he'll be paired with Suì-Fēng. Not in an obvious way, because that's not the point of this story, but because I figured if I'm going to put a secondary character it should be him.

Anything in italics is Suì-Fēng thinking.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Bleach. If I did I would've been 8 when I started the series. XD

Chapter 1: Forced into Idoling

Today started off as any other Monday. Wake up. Shower. Get dressed. Do hair. Go to the office for an hour or so, usually doing paperwork. Go to Captains meeting. Get bored at Captains meeting. Go back to the office. Do whatever work was required. Just your average Monday. Sounded…well boring, but it's what Suì-Fēng knew. It's not like she had a problem with doing new things, but she felt comfortable doing the same things. Although, she had to admit…it did get boring.

She figured it be another one of those days. She shunpoed to the Captains meeting and took her place in the hall. She watched as other Captains entered the room. Well, kind of. Hisagi wasn't technically a Captain, neither was Abarai. Or Kurosaki for that matter. Not yet anyway. Ceremony hasn't taken place yet. Still considering the lack of seated officers, and their skills, they deserve to be here. The war had an annoyingly huge impact on the Shinigami. To the point where they had ranked traitor Arrancar. Where the fuck did all the Shinigami go anyway? Suì-Fēng had been stuck with an arrogant bastard for a Vice-Captain. JaegerJaquez was incredibly annoying. Barely does any of his work. Suì-Fēng now understood why Hitsugaya seemed to be constantly stressed.

"Good morning Captains." The words from the Captain-Commander took Suì-Fēng away from her thoughts. All of the Captains bowed.
"I'm sure you are all aware of the situation I am about to present to you, however some of you may not know all of the details. Soul Society is indeed recovering from the war. But not as quick as I'd like. We need to stay alert. Just because Aizen is out of the way doesn't mean every other threat is."
Everyone nodded or muttered in agreement.
"However, as is the case for everything, we need money to speed things up. Funding. And quickly. Has anybody got any ideas on how to do this?"

How on earth are you supposed to raise money without problems these days? The easiest option would be to increase taxes, but people would revolt…Oh, someone's speaking...

Ichigo finished speaking, and Suì-Fēng realised that he suggested raising taxes. Because that's what they do in the human world. Of course what he hasn't seemed to realise is that if humans revolt not much damage is done. Shinigami with powerful weapons and spells revolting? That won't end well.

10 minutes later and still no one had come up with a good solution. Suì-Fēng was losing her patience. This isn't really what she wanted to spend her time doing. Hisagi thought he would try and lighten the mood.

"We could always create an idol group in the human world!"

What the fuck…What's an idol group? Clearly it was meant as a joke…Kurosaki and Abarai laughed. I assume it's a human world thing. Fail. Yamamoto does not look pleased.
"Could you boys possibly explain what an idol group is?"

Hisagi froze up. Finally realised that here isn't a place for jokes Hisagi?

Ichigo came to his rescue.
"Idol groups are really popular in Japan Captain-Commander. They're groups of girls, usually teenagers or young adults who sing and dance. They film the girls singing and dancing and broadcast it all over Japan. People buy those videos or the songs themselves. They're basically just a different type of musical artists. What makes an idol group an idol group is that for pretty much every song or video they do a dance alongside it, the girls can't date and they're beautiful, because they're meant to be idolized. These groups usually have Captains just like here."
Kyōraku spoke up. "They're not allowed to date?"

Typical.

"No. Some do though, just in secret." Ichigo replied casually. Yamamoto seemed to be actually considering this. Now it was Ichigo's turn to freeze up.
"How many of these songs and videos would they sell?" Kyōraku seemed overjoyed when he noticed it was Yamamoto who asked that question. It was a little while before Ichigo replied.
"It depends. Sometimes the videos barely sell, but the songs do and sometimes it's the other way around. Easily thousands though. Millions if the idol group is popular. These groups can afford to get costume designers and make-up artists and stuff after all." Yamamoto seemed very pleased with this answer.
"Interesting. Does anybody know anyone who can sing?"

Ah crap. What do I do? I can sing. But this doesn't sounds like fun. It sounds…well not me. I want to help, but I don't really want to do this. I used to sing for Yoruichi. Some people knew I sung for her too…maybe they won't bring it up…Ah Byakuya's going to speak. I know he knows, but he's intelligent enough to realise that I didn't bring myself forward therefore I don't want to do it. He's an honourable man, he won't do that to me.

"Captain Suì-Fēng, you can sing can't you? Yoruichi informed me years ago of this."

POSH FUCKER'S GONNA DIE

"Well yes, that is true. But I don't think I'd be a very good idol. I'm not exactly the girly singing danc-" Ichigo interrupted her.
"That doesn't matter. There's a couple of idol groups with girls similar to you. Considering your agility you'd be a good dancer, and a good Captain."

THAT FUCKER'S GONNA DIE TOO

Yamamoto hit the floor with his staff to grab the room's attention. "Excellent. Captain Suì-Fēng will be the Captain of this idol group. Kurosaki you are to help her find other members and start up the group in the real world. I expect frequent updates." Suì-Fēng could not believe what she was hearing.
"But Captain-Comm-"
"No buts. You can sing, and like Kurosaki said you'd be a good captain. Please try your hardest with this task." Suì-Fēng felt like screaming.
"Yes Captain-Commander." Yamamoto hit the floor with his staff again and dismissed the hall. Suì-Fēng shunpoed to the second squad's training ground. Fuck the office, she needed to vent out her frustration, and quickly.

You know, I never quite understood how the spacing works on this site, so sorry if you think it looks weird. What do you guys think? I'll try to update regularly. But you know, reviewing helps. I know everyone says it, but it's true. XD If people tell me what they think I feel inclined to write more. XD
