This story takes place DURING Attack On Titan- more specifically- those two weeks Toushiro went missing in Chapter 6.

Sorry but this chapter has quite a bit of language in it.


Sudden Intrusion

Kenryū: "Please sir, it is crucial that we act now!"

Kenryū and Enryū, the loyal servants and caretakers of Rurichiyo Kasumiōji of the Kasumiōji Clan were talking to Head-Captain Yamamoto in his office. Although young, Rurichiyo Kasumiōji was the last member of her family and thus had a lot of responsibilities. Also being the head of her clan made her a desired target. A cult of assassins have made it obvious lately that they wanted Rurichiyo dead, which wouldn't be the first time she was hunted. So she and her two servants were seeking the 13 Court Guard Squads help.

Yamamoto: "I understand that you want to take action immediately. But until I have evidence, I cannot just blindly send men in. However considering the events involving the Kasumiōji Clan last time I will assign one squad to you as temporary protection and to assess the situation you are telling me."

Kenryū: "Just ONE!?"

Yamamoto: "Yes. I have a particular squad in mind that would be perfect. They can offer sufficient defense. I will summon their captain right away."

Kenryū: "But Head-Captain Yamamoto!"

All of a sudden, there was some commotion outside of the Head-Captain's office door.

Squad 1 Guard: "Y-You can't go in there!"

?: "Move!"

Squad 1 Guard: "Please, captain! The Head-Captain's in an important meeting!"

?: "I don't care if he's talking to the emperor of my butt! I need to talk to him and that's FINAL! Now move!"

Yamamoto: "It would seem I don't have to summon him after all."

The doors flew open with a bang! Just a moment later and Toushiro Hitsugaya stormed in! He was angry about something.

Yamamoto: "Hitsugaya, I-"

Toushiro: "Yeah, I know! You're busy! I've heard it like nine times now! But I need to speak with you and NOW!"

Yamamoto: "Very well."

Kenryū: "Excuse me, sir, but I-"

Yamamoto held up his hand as he watched Toushiro approaching.

Yamamoto: "This will not take long, I promise. Besides, Captain Hitsugaya would not just barge in here like that without good reason."

Reluctantly, Kenryū and Enryū stood back and waited with Rurichiyo next to them.

Yamamoto: "Alright, what is it Hitsugaya?"

Toushiro finally reached the desk and just slapped his hands down on it in anger!

Toushiro: "Alright, look... I know he's done some important research and has made many things that have been of great use to us, but you've GOT to DO SOMETHING about Kurotsuchi, sir! He's driving me up the wall with his constantly harassing Vegeta! In fact, just this morning, he came over to my squad and started bothering Vegeta to no end and he's still there NOW! And to make things worse, he's also harassing LEVI! It's only been a week since we rescued him! He's still got bandages wrapped around his head and everything for god's sake! The poor guy's been through enough as it is already, the last thing he needs right now is for that FUCKING ASS-HOLE to come over and start bothering him!"

Yamamoto: "So ask him to leave."

Toushiro: "I did, nicely in fact, and you wanna know what he said to me?! He said: 'Go suck my dick, you little breast-feeding brat! I'm not leaving till I get what I want and that is to examine and study both the saiyan and the human from another world!' That's what he fucking said to me!"

Yamamoto was understandably a little shocked and extremely appalled by what Toushiro had just told him.

Yamamoto: "He said THAT to you?!"

Toushiro: "Oh hell yes! I don't care what or how you do it, just get him AWAY from my squad, Yamamoto! Ban him, threaten him, put up a barrier that only affects him- I don't CARE! Because at this rate, one of two things are gonna happen, sir! Either YOU MAKE him go away or start looking to fill in THREE captains positions cuz I am DONE with this shit! Next time I see him in or anywhere near my squad, there's gonna be another Ice Age RIGHT UP HIS ASS and that's IF I don't sick Vegeta on him FIRST!"

There was a short pause after Toushiro had finished to allow him to catch his breath. Kurotsuchi loves to examine and study different races. Saiyans like Vegeta were rare on earth and Levi was a human from a different worldly dimension all together, and right now both were living in the same squad. The temptation for him was great. Vegeta was Hitsugaya's second lieutenant and best friend, something Toushiro's been needing for a long time. The old man still remembers just how far the young captain was willing to go to save his new best friend. And just a week ago, the two of them found Levi and rescued him from three T-Rex's after accidentally getting sucked out of his world where he fought giant humanoid creatures called Titans. The soldier was still injured and was in a completely strange new world. For Yamamoto, it was understandable the reasoning for his youngest captain's vent. He was just protecting them both.

Yamamoto: "You have my word that Kurotsuchi will leave you, Vegeta, Levi, and your squad alone, Captain Hitsugaya."

Toushiro: "Thank you! Finally!..."

Toushiro turned around and noticed the other three. He apologized for the interruption as he started to leave.

Toushiro: "Sorry for my interruption."

Toushiro started to leave, but not so fast...

Yamamoto: "This is Toushiro Hitsugaya, Captain of the 10th Division. His squad is the one I am assigning to investigate and provide protection to your situation."

Toushiro froze and turned around.

Toushiro: "... Say what?..."

Yamamoto: "Hitsugaya, I assume you remember the incident involving the Kasumiōji Clan not too long ago?"

Toushiro: "... Is that a rhetorical question?"

Yamamoto: "It would appear that the Kasumiōji Clan is in trouble again. However I need more evidence in order to act more throughly. So I want you and your squad to protect Princess Rurichiyo Kasumiōji while gathering the information and evidence that I need."

Rurichiyo came up and greeted the young captain. Surprisingly, Toushiro was actually just a little taller than her.

Rurichiyo: "Nice to meet you, Captain Hitsugaya, and thank you ever so much for your assistance."

Toushiro was just staring at her with wide eyes. There was one thing on his mind.

Toushiro: "... Are you really a princess?"

Kenryū: "Do not ask Lady Rurichiyo such a question."

Rurichiyo: "It's alright, Kenryū. Indeed I am, Captain. Is there a problem with that?"

There was a momentary pause before...

Toushiro: "Hold that thought..."

The child prodigy just turned back to his superior.

Toushiro: "Yamamoto, do I need to remind you of the incident I had with one Princess Nina Kamiki? Cuz I feel like I do!"

Yamamoto: "Rest assured, Hitsugaya. I remember. This princess is already engaged."

Toushiro: "Oh thank god!"

Kenryū: "You're THAT Hitsugaya?"

Toushiro Hitsugaya was the ONLY Hitsugaya within the Seireitei. In fact, he just might be the only Hitsugaya within the whole of the Soul Society! So Kenryū's remark deserved an annoyed stare from the young captain.

Kenryū: "With all do respect, Head-Captain Yamamoto, I don't see how this kid can defend Lady Rurichiyo."

Yamamoto: "Captain Hitsugaya and his squad are one of my best squads. In fact they are among my top three. Now then, Hitsugaya. Please keep me informed of the mission status as often as possible."

There was a beep from Toushiro and the young captain pulled out his soul phone. He looked at the message and raised an eyebrow. He actually wasn't all that surprised by what the message said.

Toushiro: "I'll do that if you get Kurotsuchi out of my office like right now. Rangiku just informed me that a certain someone is starting to snarl, bare his teeth and stare a little too much at his throat. ... And I don't think I need to tell you where this is going."

And with that, Yamamoto called forth a hell butterfly and sent a summoning message to Kurotsuchi at once.

Yamamoto: "There. He'll be gone by the time you return to your squad, captain. Assuming the message gets to him in time."

Toushiro: "For his sake, it better... Alright. You three come with me."

Yamamoto: "Thank you, Captain Hitsugaya."

Toushiro just waved as he started for home with Kenryū, Enryū, and Rurichiyo following behind. But before they passed by the doors, Toushiro had one last thing to say to Kenryū.

Toushiro: "Oh and call me a kid again and see what happens!"

Kenryū was thrown back by the statement for a moment before following once again. Once the four of them were gone, Yamamoto summoned his lieutenant.

Yamamoto: "Chojiro. Come here for a moment."

Sasakibe: "Yes sir."

Yamamoto: "Chojiro... Please send a message to Kisuke Urahara asking if he would be willing to take command of Squad 12 again either permanently or temporarily until we find a suitable replacement."

Sasakibe: "Of course, sir. But may I ask why?"

Yamamoto: "... At the rate Mayuri Kurotsuchi is going, I'm starting to think that replacing him before something actually happens will be the only way to keep the sanity."

Sasakibe: "Ah, I understand, sir. I will send the message right away."
