DISCLAIMER: I HAVE BLEACH BUT ITS NOT GOOD FOR YOU. USE TOOTHPASTE INSTEAD
The newly promoted taichou of the sixth division together with his newly achieved bankai were not, to say the least, best friends. As the official head of the clan, he walked slowly and nobly down the streets of seireitei before eventually coming to the temple.
Kuchiki Byakuya did not frequent the temple. He only ever went when that grandfather of his (who, thank goodness, is dead and gone) dragged him bodily there as a child. Besides, Kuchiki Byakuya was a noble. Nobles don't go and pray for things. They have what they want. Well, aside from the elderly but dead Kuchiki who visited the temple everyday in hopes of having an obedient grandson.
He never had that obedient grandson.
But here was where an exception came in. The newly appointed head of the Kuchiki clan wanted something, and he didn't have that something. So, in a fit of exasperation, Byakuya trudged up the stairs and picked a shrine to sit in front of and began begging the gods for a change of bankai. After an hour without signs of a reply, the even more exasperated Byakuya got up, turned, and left.
And came back five minutes later with his doting wife who sat at another shrine and begged the gods to answer whatever her husband was praying for.
A couple of hours later, Byakuya got up, told Hisana that he was in absolutely no mood to consume the evening meal known as dinner and turned and left again. Taking that as the cue to leave, Hisana did likewise.
Kuchiki Byakuya has his own reasons for skipping dinner. He was not anorexic, neither was he on a diet. He was determined to try his bankai again, and he just didn't want to puke his guts out in any case the gods either didn't hear him or just laughed at him and tweaked his bankai into an assorted bouquet of roses, sunflowers and tulips.
Having made sure he set up a strong kidou barrier around the training field, Byakuya began training. After another quarrel with Senbonzakura who had eventually agreed to show him another stage of his bankai, he stood up and held his zanpakutou and a sick bag at the ready. You shouldn't take chances. Puking is one thing. Puking and letting your subordinates know about it is a completely different story. Just to, you know, be safe. Kuchiki Byakuya did not know how to use a mop, neither did he know where to get one from.
Bracing himself, he nobly muttered, 'chire, Senbonzakura Kageyoshi Senkei.' Or at least, he hoped it sounded noble.
He watched in awe as the sky turned dark (well, it was night, so it was just a guess) and row upon row of majestic katanas shimmered into existence. It was only a good three seconds later when he exclaimed in shock, 'IT'S STILL PINK!!!!'
Crushing the sick bag and shattering the barrier, he sealed Senbonzakura with a glare and trudged moodily back to the manor. He tossed an angry glare in Hisana's general direction as he stomped past the shoji and past the kitchen before finally stomping into his room and then stomping on his futon in anger.
Lying down on the rather crushed futon, he decided to visit the temple once more to ask for a third bankai.
