Ichigo: C'mon Demon, what's all this about no booty till later chapters.

Demonaria: Down Ichi. You'll get your booty just not right now.

Renji: Nope he can have some booty right now if he wants it.

Prologue

"Who's that?"

"I've never seen her before."

"Idiots, that's Kurosaki Izumi. She's a third division third seat."

Izumi smiled as she walked down the halls of the third division headquarters. After all she did need to report in.

"Why haven't we ever seen her?"

"Did you say Kurosaki? Any relation to Kurosaki Ichigo?"

Izumi slightly paused in her advance down the hall. 'Another with the name of Kurosaki was known in soul society. I guess things have changed in the five years I've been gone' she thought.

"Not that I know of, but who knows if there is or not."

"Hey how come we've never seen her here before if she's a third seat?"

"She's been on assignment for the past five years. Whatever it was that she was doing was top secret and was even important enough for her not to be called back during the Aizen rebellion."

"Wow. That's a long time to be stuck in a gigai, and in the real world."

New recruits were impressed so easily. Izumi arrived at her destination. It felt good to be back after five years. She really needed to catch up on everything that had been happening. Sure she knew about the Aizen rebellion, but was ordered to remain where she was through the whole thing. And she really wanted to know more about this other Kurosaki who seemed to be so well knows through soul society. Her whole way back to headquarters she had heard the name several times.

Izumi knocked on the door in front of her and waited for the command to enter. Once it was given, she entered her captain's office. After shutting the door she turned around to greet her captain. "3rd seat Kurosaki Izumi reporting in taichou."

"How does it feel to be back Kurosaki? You've been gone for what, five years." Kira-taichou said.

"Yes. The last time I was in soul society I was only 16 years old. It seems that a lot has changed Taichou. If I may ask, what did you want to see me about? There are still many other things I need to do today."

"Still as to the point as ever I see. Very well. As you probably know, I have been captain for two years and in that time, I have not had a vice-captain. Your name was added to the list of reserves this past fortnight, and I would like you to become my Lieutenant."

Izumi was shocked. It was unheard of for someone as young as her to make Lieutenant.
