I don't own Bleach. Here's a little one-shot.
At his birthday
party, there was only Rukia, Renji and Unohana. They were the only
ones invited. They all drank tea admiring the small cake that the
cooks in The Kuchiki manor prepared for him.
To Renji, This is
the boringest party I have ever been to. This green tea is kinda
gross. Wish I had some sake. To Rukia, I cherish time with
my brother but this is just lame. I'd rather be in the world of the
living arguing with Ichigo. To Unohana, La La La lalalalala…La!
At
the presentation of gifts, Rukia gave him a wristband that had his
squad logo on it. Renji gave him a Hallmark Card and we're not sure
what Unohana gave him but abunch of nice smile.
"Thank you all
for these deeply appreciated gifts." He bows and they bow back in
respect. "You are all dismissed."
"You call that
a party?" The familiarity of the voice only was matched by the
resemblance of her body. It's the demon cat, he
thought.
"Pardon?"
"What your turning like 100-200
somethin' years old and you have a party like this? Live it up a
little! Parties like this only should happen when you're turning
like 2,000 or wrinkled. Jeez."
"I believe you weren't
invited to this occasion, Yoruichi."
"I believe you dismissed
everyone. Meaning it's over. I would've invited myself
anyways."
"Leave my house now."
"What if I don't
wanna? What cha' gonna do?" She teases him like he was still a
teenager. He uses Hado #31 Shakkaho to hit her but she is too
fast.
"C'mon is that all you got?" Byakuya was angry. This
wasn't how he was supposed to spend his Bday.
"C'mon
Byakuya." Each time she said that she'd move to another spot in
the room until she was right next to him."You scared ya' gonna
lose to me,again? I don't ever recall you ever beating me. Byakuya
is just a baby."
"Enough!" He uses Hado#4 Byakurai yet she
dodges it once more.
"Heh, Heh. Too Slow."
"Fine,"
He stands up. "Two can play this game" and he is off, after
her.
"Does this mean that we can go home?" asks Rukia.
"
I guess so. Unohana left a while ago."
"Okay." They exited
the premises at the same time.
After a continuous 6 hours of Shunpo, hunger struck Yoruichi, Byakuya kinda tired out and it was almost dark. " Aww…you tired Byakuya? Thought so. I'm kinda tired and starving myself."
"Why?"
"Why
what?"
"Why did you force me to play such a childish
game?"
"Why not? You always liked it." She sat down on the
roof of the 13th division's building.
" But I have
matured to a captain's level. No captain should be playing such
trivial games. Nor should he play."
"Please spare me the
serious speech. It's your birthday. On such days, you are supposed
to be happy with new beginnings taking hold. But you also need to
take time to reminisce on previous years."
"I assume that's
why you came. Is it not?"
"It is."
"I don't need
anyone to help me look back on past memories." He turns in the
direction of his house. "You may leave now."
"Byakuya.
Before you leave, answer me this one question: Are you
happy?"
"That's none of your business."
He goes home. She sits down and studies her surroundings, smiling. The phrase, "That's none of your business.", kept running through her head. "He is happy. Happy birthday, Byakuya." She stares up at the silver dotted sky and falls asleep.
The End
