(A/N: This is my very first Bleach fanfic. I'm not the best writer in the world so please bear with me. The story will take place after Aizen's betrayal of the Soul Society. I'm also going to tinker with the storyline. Maybe a little, maybe more than a little, or maybe even a lot. And also I'm making Toshiro a bit taller, atleast like 5'4". And one more thing, the story starts with a prologue that takes place 15 years before the actually story begins.)
Disclaimer:
And just so you know, which I hope you all do, and I'm not saying this again. This will be said once and only once, got it. I DO NOT OWN BLEACH. (If I did it definitely wouldn't be the same and I'd make it more centered on the Seireitei.) If you're one the few smart ones, of this or any world or realm, you'd know that the only things I actually own are the OC's, their zanpakuto and powers, etc. Well… enjoy.
Prologue:
It was a nice quiet day in the Seireitei. The birds were chirping, and the sun was shining with hardly a cloud in the sky. It seemed like everyone loved the day. From Squad 2's special training with their tough but loyal captain to Squad 11's 'special' training with their fighting crazed captain.
Especially within the 10th division squad barricades it seemed even more peaceful. There we have our favorite Squad 10 captain and his lieutenant doing paperwork. Yes, Rangiku is doing paperwork; while being strapped down to her seat and being forced to do by her captain. Yes indeed, a normal and peaceful day.
Until…
"Toshiro-kun! Rangiku-chan!" sang the voices of two young girls.
That moment the young captain heard his name being called his left eyebrow twitched in annoyance.
"Oh Captain." Rangiku announced, in a sing-song tone. "It looks like you have visitors." She turned from her 'I'm bored of paperwork' look to her 'Yay, I finally have an excuse to stop' look.
"Matsumoto, if you get distracted from your work or even talk while their here you'll get triple the paperwork." He ordered his lieutenant. He looked at her shocked face as she quickly went back to her work. Then he leans back in his chair and sighs. 'Why?' He thought as he slapped his forehead and slid his hand down his face. 'And it seemed like such a quiet day.' He sighed again as the doors of his office burst open revealing two young girls.
"Hiya Shiro-kun. Hiya Ran-chan." They chimed as they entered the office.
The taller of the two was Drew Kamasaki. She is lieutenant of the newly formed Squad 14, and also a part of the Stealth Force. She had dark-toned skin back-length black hair with a dark red tint in it and bronze colored eyes. She wore her Stealth Force uniform top with her hakama.
The shorter one, about the same height as Toshiro, was Katilyn Kamasaki. She is the 5th seat of Squad 14. She is also Drew's adopted sister. She has fair skin, long hair silver that went past her waist in a low ponytail, and lavender-like colored eyes. She wore the regular given shihakshu but with a panda button on it. How cute.
The 10th division Captain looked at the two intruders with his usual icy glare. You know, the look that would usually send a soul reaper running; hoping not to stay in eye-sight with it. But these two were different. They just stood there, unfazed by it.
"Shiro." The silence was finally broke by Drew. "Now you know that look doesn't work on us. We walk in for a nice talk and you give us that dirty icy look of yours. Have you no shame?"
"Yeah, no shame." Katilyn echoed Drew's words with a big smile.
"Shouldn't you two be somewhere else? You know, not bothering me." He said, in his usual tone of voice. It's not that he hated have Drew nor Katilyn around; they were two of closest people to him there in the Soul Society, other than Hinamori. It's just he wanted it quiet while he did his paperwork is all. Is that too much to ask for? In his case, it just might be.
"Aww, Shiro. There's no need be so negative." Drew said, nonchalantly, as she walked up to Toshiro's desk. But she stopped half way before taking a look at Rangiku. She looked at the poor busty lieutenant doing her paperwork. She knew, along with everyone else, that Rangiku hates doing paperwork. Then after thinking, an evil smirk crept on her face. "Hey, Rangiku. If you help us get Toshiro off his ass then I'll do half of your paperwork and take you out for sake, my treat."
At last line Rangiku shot up out of her seat and was standing a few feet away from her desk saluting. "Rangiku Matsumoto, reporting for duty ma'am!"
Drew had a huge smile planted on her face. Katilyn jumped up cheerfully and ran over to Rangiku, hugging her. And as for Toshiro, well… he wasn't the happiest camper.
"Lieutenant Kamasaki."
"Nuh uh, Toshiro. I'm not fully responding to you while you call me that. And you know how I dislike that formality talk."
"Grr. Drew!"
"You rang?"
"Drew. You can't come into my office and tell my officers what to do; you have you own squad for that. And it's Captain Hitsugaya."
"Oh. Okay I see. Just got one thing to say to that."
She walked to his desk and looked him dead in the eyes with a cocky look and leaning on the desk. Using one hand for support on the desk and the other resting on her hip. Then doing the unsuspected.
"Pffft…" She blew raspberry. "That's what I say to that, my little Shiro."
Now, either she's very brave or very stupid and wants to die.
"Uh, Drew." Katilyn spoke, with fear in her voice. "I think you may have gone a bit too far this time."
The temperature in the room started to drop very rapidly. And with the look on Toshiro's face it surely wasn't helping to make it better.
"I second that 'gone to far thing' too." Rangiku said, just as frighten.
Drew then turned with her back facing Toshiro. "Well, there's only one thing we can do now." Taking a long deep breath before yelling: "Every soul for themselves!", and running towards the door. But was sadly stop by the ice forming around her feet and her falling on the floor, face first. "Oh damn it to hell. I'm dead."
Rangiku and Katilyn stood in shock, and also for being to cold to move, as Toshiro walked over to where the poor girl had fallen. They were both thinking the same thing that moment. 'She is so gonna die.'
"Uh, Toshiro? Your not gonna do anything inconsiderate are you?" she pleaded facing towards him. He stood right in front of her with a smirk on his face. She knew he was planning something. Something cold and bad. "Come on. You knew it was a joke. I was kidding. You knew that. Right?" Hoping that a miracle would happen any moment now and save her from her soon to be torture.
It seemed like the gods have answered her prayers. A hell butterfly came in. Katilyn, Rangiku, and Drew and let out a sigh of relief. It landed on Rangiku's finger and she announced the message:
"It's an announcement from Head Captain Yamamoto. It says: 'All members of Squad 14 please prepare report to the Senkaimon gates for the departure of the world of the living'."
After she read it she looked at Drew and Katilyn with sorrowful eyes. The temperature in the room also seemed to go back to normal.
"You guys are leaving for-"
"Yeah." Katilyn said sadly facing the floor. "They actually just told us this morning. We've been going 'round all morning and afternoon telling our friends 'bye' and stuff. But I guess we don't have time to tell anyone else."
"But why didn't you guys tell us when you found out. We could've at least gave you guys a party or-"
"Rangiku, please." Rangiku was interrupted by Drew. "We know you would have wanted to do a party or something. And truth be told, you have no cash on you to really do that do you?" The red head was appalled at that and just pouted.
"How long?" Everyone turned the heads to the captain. "How long are you guys planning on being gone?"
"Well, know that you bring it up…" She puts her finger up to her lip and starts to think. And think. And think. And think. And… well god she's still thinking.
"Well do you know or not?" He was starting to get even more ticked off then he was a few minutes ago.
She sits up, Indian-style, and looks at him with her head tilted to the side. "Nope. Guess I don't."
He sighs, and then continues with another question. "What are you guys going to the world of the living for? Hopefully you can answer that question at least."
She glares at him. "That's to remain classified and that last part, no comment. All I can say is that while we're the Head Captain said we would be able to go to different place all over the world of the living; as long as it pertains to our assignment and we get rid of hollows that is."
"Yeah!" Katilyn exclaimed, going back to her cheery mood. "We'll go to different countries, cities, and a whole bunch of other places. We'll even bring you guys back some souvenirs and stuff."
Rangiku claps her hands together. "Ohh. Can you guys bring me back so make-up? I wanna see how the living's cosmetics and clothes are."
Drew then gets up from her spot and walks over to Katilyn. "Well, Kate it seems like we better head out. Looks like these people have some paperwork to do."
"Okay." Katilyn says cheerfully. She gives Rangiku a good bye hug, then walks over to Toshiro. She looks at him and he looks at her with a little bit of a confused face. She then quickly hugs him and let goes just as quick. With that she skips out of the office just as merrily as a kid to a candy store.
My goodness you cannot say she isn't adorable.
"Well I guess it's time for me to go too. Can you believe as lieutenant they expect me to be there on time? Ha! They must have no clue yet." She said, as she started to walk towards the door but stops. "Hey, Toshiro."
"What is it Drew?" That being said in his mid-cold tone.
She turns around three-fourth to face him. "While I'm gone, I'ma need for you to keep this place how it is. Like watching over Ran-chan and don't let her get over drunk." Rangiku gasps at that, but Drew continues. "I want you to help look after some people; which include Rangiku, Yachiru, Captain Jushiro who I hope will one day feel better, and Momo." Toshiro looks at her and nods at her request. "One last thing… by the time I get back you better not be that same height. Got that?"
"Just because you're taller than me doesn't mean you can continue to pick on my height. But yeah, I'll do what I can."
"Good, then it's a promise." She turns back around to leave out the door. "Later, Lieutenant Masumoto. Later, Captain Hitsugaya."
Toshiro stood there and looked through the door Drew just walked right through. Not just because he was surprise that she called him Captain Hitsugaya, which he was shocked, happy, and a tad confused about. But that the fact is that she's gone for who knows how long. He's known Drew since they were both kids, she would always come by to see him knowing that Momo was at the Academy. The only times they have truly been separated was when she left for the Academy before he even had any interest; until she and Rangiku persuaded him to go. But no matter what they were mostly together. Either it may be her annoying him, trying to get him to have fun, get him to stop his paperwork, or just to hang out. Or it either may be him scowling her, getting her to do her paperwork, or annoying her in his own way. So no matter how much they annoying or aggravate one another, they're always gonna be the best of friends.
Now that's what I call friendship, or may it be something more.
"Uh, Captain?"
Toshiro was knocked out of his daze by his lieutenant. "What is it Rangiku?" He said coming back to his senses. The woman quickly gets up and runs to hug her captain, who is now being squished between her, uh…, exposed cleavage. He could barely mutter a word. "Ra-Rangiku. What is the… meaning of this?" He tries to squirm himself free from her clutches.
"Ohh, Captain, I know how much you're gonna miss them terribly. Especially Drew." She cried with huge fake tears.
"Ran...gi...ku…can…not…breath."
"Oops. Gomenasai, Captain." She lets go of him and he drops to the floor grasping for air. "I'm also so glad you took that so easily."
"If you mean your bone crushing hugs, I've gotten use to it by now." He looks up at Rangiku who has her arms crossed in front of her and looking down at him. "What?"
"Don't hide it. I know you miss her."
"What are talking about?"
"Drew, duh. And I know on the inside you're truly gonna miss her." She told him. Toshiro opened his mouth to speak, but she continued. "Captain I know you're gonna something like 'What are you trying to get at Rangiku?', or 'It's not like that Rangiku.', or something in that. But at least say you're gonna miss her." She then looked at her captain with a pleading face. All he did was raise an eyebrow. Then let out a slight chuckle which took Rangiku for a loop.
"For once Rangiku, you might be right." He said as he walked to his desk.
"I was right?… I mean, of course I was right. Which part was I right about again?"
He sat down at his desk. "The fact that I was about to say 'What are you trying to get at?' Now I'm about to tell you to finish your paperwork or I'll give away all your sake to Captain Shunsui." He watched Rangiku dropped her head after mutter a 'Yes sir' and walks back to her desk and does her unfinished paperwork. He then starts to do his paperwork before looking out his window thinking:
'You better be careful Drew. And come back in one piece.'
(A/N: I hope you guy like it. Well that's only the beginning I have more in stored.)
