It was a plain and normal day and there was the usual captains weekly meeting, only with one exception. The captain commander wasn't there. For the first time in 2500 years Captain Yamato of squad 1, was to ill to go to the meeting held in the Seireitei. All 12 captains just stood there. Looking at each other, not knowing what to do or what to say. The thing is this is the first time its been so quiet around the soul society. Ever since the traitors, Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tousen, were defeated and the Espada still in the process of being hunted down and killed in Hueco Mundo, there wasn't much for them to discuss.
The room was a bland as it always was. Just a plain empty room with no furniture in at all. The air was filled with a musky smell, and as always you could always smell the stench of what ever Captain Kurotshuchi of squad 12was doing just before the captains meeting began. The sun shined brightly through the windows with its bright rays. The boring silence filled the room for at least 15 minutes until it was noticeable that Captain Kenpachi of squad 11had enough, and began to eye Byakuya up. He had heard that Ichigo Kurosaki beat him all those years ago at Rukia's execution, and decided that it was time they finished of their little dispute from way back the next 30 minutes the same boring silence filled the room, until Kenpachi decided this was a good time to have a "reasonable" conversation about Rukia's decision to leave the soul society and live in the human world with the favourable substitute shinigami, Ichigo Kurosaki.
"So how's your pride doing Byakuya?" questioned Kenpachi in a laughable manner."That's Captain Kuchiki to you, you troublesome dog." replied Byakuya as he lowered his head in annoyance, "You talk to me about pride? Where is the pride in killing your own captain just to take his place? Then again Captain Kenpachi, I suppose pride isn't needed for a stray dog like yourself"A smile started to form on Kenpachi's face. The fight that he has been longing for, for so long, is about to take of, he could feel it. It was on the tip of his tongue. He hadn't had a descent opponent for a while. Not since the espada whose name he always forgot. Trying to figure out what to say to get the fight started, Captain Hitsugaya squad 10, now a handsome young man instead of young boy, butted into their so called conversation. "If this is all your going to do Kenpachi take it somewhere else. We don't need a fight going on at the moment in this strange time of peacefulness.""Huh, so you want some too, you young punk? Fine I guess it would take more than just Byakuya to take me out. Heck not even all of you could take me on at the same time and live to tell the tale." said Kenpachi with his smile getting ever bigger.
Hitsugaya smiled in animosity. He resented Kenpachi for all his worth. Still he could see where Kenpachi was coming from. It has been to quite these days. Its almost as if the entire hollow world has been purged and therefore rendering the shinigami of soul society useless. The rest of the captains just stared at the two, wondering why they just couldn't enjoy the peacefulness.
They decided to leave the meeting since it was nothing to discuss and went on their way. "Hey Unohana-chan3" came a laid back voice. Captain Unohana turned around to find it was Shunsui, like she expected. "What is it Captain Kyouraku?" she replied with a smile on her face. It wasn't very often she had chances to talk to Shunsui. After all he has his charming ways with women, but she never really understood why his vice captain, Ise Nanao, acted like she resented him so much, when it was obvious that she had a deep respect for him.
"Ahh, your to kind, Unohana-chan, gracing me with a smile so bright, it would truly put the sun to shame."
Unohana let out a brief giggle, but quickly got back to the point of the conversation. Apparently someone left a strange note on Shunsui's desk last night. "How unusual," she responded to this most bizarre occasion. "And you say there was a cat with you? I've never even heard of a cat being in soul society, you know how allergic the old man is to them. After all that's why he banned them from the Seireitei and kept them all in the rukongai districts."
"Yes I know all about old man Yama's allergies to kitties. But still, the sender of the note signed it with Y.O.R.U. Do you think its 'her'?"
"Most likely Shunsui, I shall go with you tonight to tend to the injured man then. Good evening" she said with a smile on her face. The fact that a tough opponent such as Yamato having a weakness so petty was funny in its self. But he got so annoyed that he banned cats from living in the Seireitei, maybe that was taking the matter to far.
