A Cat's Tale of Jealousy

Seemingly never-ending black clouds hung above the Soul Society. A shroud of pounding rain fell from these dark heavy masses, covering every inch of exposed surface with chilling precipitation. The eerie claps and smacks of thunder echoed its bellowing cry for miles to hear. Blinding cracks of jagged light danced across the stormy sky, allowing a quick glimpse of the raging hurricane before disappearing completely. Leaves and other debris rode the rugged gusts of the wicked wind as they tore through trees and neighborhoods. It was a horrible night. Everyone – including on-duty soul reapers – were ordered to stay indoors until the storm had passed… which would be in three days.

All production was shut down as soon as the swirling clouds appeared on the horizon and when the echo of pummeling rain could be heard from a distance. Sincerely, the captain commander hoped the storm would veer off course and head in another direction; however the Soul Society was hit dead on. No one has ever seen a naturally occurring hurricane in Soul Society before, therefore this was definitely a first for everyone. Citizens and soul reapers quickly ran to the nearest stores to stock up on necessities and food before the storm hit. Everyone was now shut up in their own homes while the streets and offices were vacant. Most people were very happy when they got the news that they were to remain indoors with no work while others went as far as getting three days' worth of paperwork so they wouldn't be behind when they return to the office.

With thunder rumbling above head, everyone was in their homes hoping to get a goodnight's rest. In the whole Soul Society, only a few of the many houses had lights on inside. One of those houses belonged to the captain of squad two. Inside, Soifon was just finishing the day's paperwork on her living room couch, she being one of the people requesting work. Signing her name on the second to last paper, she put the pen and the last piece of paper down on the coffee table in front of her and cracked and rotated her cramping hand. With a sigh, she turned her head to take a glance out the window behind her. She was rewarded with a loud clap of thunder and a flash of lightning. She saw rain just pouring down, creating giant puddles that were getting bigger by the minute. Her vision was reduced to black again when the lightning's light faded away to nothing. Another breathy sigh escaped her lips as she turned back around. A little thunder and lightning was fine in her book, but the rain?

Shaking her head, the captain went to grab the pen to sign the last paper, but found it to be gone. She raised an eyebrow in confusion, scanning the top and beneath the coffee table for any sign of the missing pen, but she found nothing. Soifon stood and looked around the table. She still found nothing and decided to check underneath the couch. Dropping to her knees, she leaned over and waved an arm beneath the couch in an attempt to locate the stupid thing. With frustration and no luck, Soifon leaned in further and looked underneath the couch.

"What on earth are you doing?"

The male voice spooked the commander of the Stealth Force, causing her to fly to her feet. Frantically looking around, Soifon recognized the voice. Matching the voice to a certain person, a blush began to rush to her cheeks. She dropped her attack stance when her grey eyes met a golden gaze. The black cat sat on the couch with its tail wrapped around its front paws and chuckled at the sight of the reddening skin, but then looked down and nudged something with its paw.

"Hm, looking for this? Catch."

The cat hit the object with its paw, sending it flying toward the captain. With quick reflexes, Soifon caught the projectile with ease. Opening her hand, she found the pen that was supposedly M.I.A.

"It fell off the table."

With a small smile on her lips, the captain sat down on the sofa and signed the last piece of paperwork.

"Thank you, Lady Yoruichi," Soifon said with an incline of her head to the Shihoin as she stood and walked into another room and over to a desk. She opened a drawer and placed the stack of documents inside before closing it and returning to the living room where her former mentor waited.

"Well thank you for allowing me to stay here to wait out the storm," Yoruichi said as the young woman sat down on the couch. Soifon hummed in response, too exhausted to give a proper answer and close her eyes for a few seconds. The black cat followed suit, laid down on the couch and she too rested her eyes. She came to the Second Divisions office to meet up with the young captain despite the hurricane warning. Soifon was there packing up all the paperwork that she needed and was heading back to her quarters when the storm hit. Lucky enough, they were able to escape the harsh weather by entering Soifon's home. They dried off and Soifon graciously, yet awkwardly, offered for her former mentor to wait out the horrendous hurricane with her. There was no way the Shihoin could go out and return to Karakura Town in this weather and Yoruichi thought it was the perfect time to spend some quality time with her little bee. Accepting her offer, Yoruichi suggested that they both should take baths and get ready for the night ahead. While Soifon took the first shower, it allowed Yoruichi plan a somewhat splendid evening in her mind. After showering and changing, Soifon allowed the golden-eyed woman to have her turn with the shower. She grabbed the rest of the day's paperwork, sat down on the couch and started them.

That was not even a half an hour ago and here they were. A few seconds of silence passed by before the younger woman stood up and walked out of the room, leaving a confused Yoruichi alone on the sofa. When she returned, she had another whole stack of paperwork in her arms. At the sight of this, the cat's jaw dropped.

Is she joking; another stack? Oh hell no.

"Um, what are you doing?" Yoruichi asked as Soifon returned to the couch and sat down next to her. As soon as she sat down, the captain began to write away with the pen, scribbling out formal reports and approvals. If a cat could frown, Yoruichi was definitely doing so.

I knew it was a bad idea to give her that damn pen back…

Without looking up from her work and not bothering to even stop, Soifon replied, "Oh, I figured that I should start on tomorrow's paperwork."

Yoruichi raised an eyebrow.

"Uh, why?"

"Well, I guess I could just get them done early so I could go train for the next two days." Yoruichi just stared at her as she continued with her work. After a moment or two, the black cat sighed and pulled herself up to a sitting position.

"Soi?"

The younger woman seemed not to have heard her name for she continued to write with a focused expression on her face.

"Soi?" Yoruichi repeated louder and more firmly, trying to get the younger woman's attention. Alas, she still was not able to snap Soifon out of her working trance.

"Soifon!"

The young captain jumped and finally tore her gaze away from the paperwork and to the cat beside her. However, in a blink of an eye, Yoruichi flashed from her spot and disappeared somewhere else. Frantically scanning the room for any sign of the cat, her silver gaze finally locked on to a small black figure on the carpet in front of the unlit fireplace. The feline wore a Cheshire cat grin on its features as a deep chuckle filled the room while the she shook her head. Soifon raised an eyebrow, confused before looking down to her lap to continue with her work. However, when she glanced down, her lap was empty. She looked back up to her former mistress and saw that she was sitting upon a stack of papers – her paperwork!

"Now Soi, look outside and tell me what you see."

Soifon obediently turned to take a glance out the window and saw that the raging hurricane has gotten much worse. The wind howled like a feral beast lurking in the night, ripping violently through anything that was in its way as it continued to roam, scaring children to the brink of fright. It caused tree trunks to sway dangerously to almost the point of breaking right in half. Tree limbs broke and now litter the ground, window stutters have been blown off houses, and every inch of exposed space was flooded with water that was still coming down without any sign of stopping anytime soon. The thunderous bellow of thunder boomed above head, causing the house to rumble and vibrate. Cracks of lightning flashed almost every few seconds, illuminating the dreary scenery to all who dared to look out their windows. It was quite the catastrophe.

Soifon turned back to Yoruichi with a sheepish look on her face.

"I see- um, a storm…?"

"Good, but what kind?"

"…A hurricane?"

"Excellent. Now should I even ask what made you even think that you can go out in that storm-to train of all things? And on a three days off period!?" Yoruichi said firmly. Of course the idea of a day off seemed to be a complete waste of time in Soifon's mind; however the Shihoin had hoped that a hurricane would be enough to make her see the bright side of a free day. Alas, her hopes just washed away with the rain water outside.

"A hurricane won't keep me from heightening my skills, Lady Yoruichi. It would be smart to take advantage of the situation at hand and I intend to do so. Besides, the storm will be beneficial to my training; it'll give me a little challenge," Soifon explained with a confident tone, "May I have my papers back?"

"Nope," the cat replied smirking and decided to lick her paw. She brought it over her head and ears a few times to give them a quick clean. Blushing at the cute scene before her, Soifon got up from her spot on the couch and made her way over to the grooming cat. She sat down on her knees as she looked straight at Yoruichi sitting on the ridiculously huge tower of paper. Yoruichi was eye level with Soifon now and she had stopped with her self-grooming to look straight into those silver pools. Oh how she loved them. Yoruichi had decided when she was in the shower that in the next few, she would declare her love for the captain of squad two. However, if Soifon was going to just do her paperwork and go train out in the hurricane, there was clearly no possible way she could even talk to her former student. So, Yoruichi had a plan.

For the next few days, she had everything planned out. For example tonight, (after she convinces the stubborn captain to quit the work and training) they would have a night of sitting by a crackling fire, talking and if things speed up, maybe a few moments of hand holding or cuddles! But she knew the night wouldn't escalate that far, but, hey, a girl can hope, right? She could see it now, perfection. The relationship that is more than a hundred years overdue will finally begin in the ashes of a vicious, fiery hurricane.

Soifon , even though she was enchanted by those sparkling eyes, got tired of playing the staring game with the cat and gave Yoruichi a frustrated look. Still the goddess didn't budge. The captain then blinked and looked away, trying to be patient with Yoruichi since she knew that she wouldn't give up the papers so easily.

"Yay! I win," the cat exclaimed, her tail lashing to and fro.

"Win?" Soifon said, turning her gaze back to the cat.

"Yup. The starring contest," Yoruichi said proudly, "It looks like you need to work on your focusing and concentration skills."

"But, I was concentrating just fine on my paperwork before you took it!"

"Well, paperwork doesn't count."

"Then I am most definitely focused when I'm training!"

"That also doesn't count," the cat smirked, intentionally agitating the younger woman which was step one of her little master plan.

"Then what does count?"

Bringing a paw to eye level, Yoruichi seemed to have bestowed all of her attention to it, thoroughly examining it and looking at it from all angles. Seeing that she was completely ignoring her question, Soifon released a sigh as she hung her head, showing that she had given up. Yoruichi congratulated herself mentally; step one, complete, now on to step two of getting Soifon to go along with her plan.

With a cat-like smirk, Yoruichi looked back at Soifon and smirked at the scene she saw. Her protégé was glaring down at the floor with a barely visible pout on her lips as she fiddled with the bottom of her sleepwear bottoms. It was quite the adorable sight, even more so that she didn't notice that she was being watched. The cat decided to end the poor girl's suffering after a few silent moments.

"First off, you should be more focused and wary of things that don't relate to work or training because that's not what life is all about. I know that I was unable to educate you on the subject back then and I apologize. But now, I will gladly teach you the art of concentration if you promise that you will drop all of the paperwork and training for the next three days," Yoruichi offered, tilting her small black head to the side in anticipation.

The younger woman thought about the proposition deeply. On the downside, she would lose three days' worth of work and she would not progress in her training; seeming to be just a waste of time. However, the situation also gave her a chance to spend more valuable quality time with her beloved mentor. With being the captain of Squad Two and the leader of the Stealth Force (and also with Soifon being herself with all of the hours of nonstop training), it left Soifon with little or no time to see the violet-haired woman. Also, if she were to agree to the special training, she would acquire further knowledge on a field that she is apparently lacking in. Therefore, she decided to hit two birds with one stone and accept Yoruichi's offer.

"I guess I could spare a few days," Soifon sighed as she witnessed the feline's eyes brighten with elation.

"Perfect," Yoruichi purred, her tail wrapping around her front paws, "But, you have to promise me," she finished, a serious face adorning her kitty face.

After a few moments had passed, the captain answered, "I promise."

Yoruichi purred in approval, as she jumped down from the mountain of paperwork and sat on the floor next to the younger woman.

"Okay, let's prepare to begin. I want you to put those papers away. In another room. In a desk; a locked desk. Also, to make sure you're not going to sneak off to do any work, I am confiscating all of your writing utensils – including all of your crayons that you think I don't know about. By the way, your little pictures are just too adorable," Yoruichi explained, the last part causing the usually mature Soifon to flush red.

This produced a deep chuckle from the cat next to her.

Obeying the feline's suggestions, the captain rose from her spot on the floor, picked up the stack of paperwork, and walked into her at-home office. Upon arriving at her desk, she noticed that all of her pens and pencils had vanished from the small drawer she usually kept them. Setting down the papers, Soifon swiftly went to a small closet and opened it, almost tearing it off its hinges with the amount of force she used. Stretching up on her toes, she blindly searched for something at the back of the top shelf. When her hand hit something, she quickly grabbed it, and brought it out of the closet. Returning to the desk, she placed the object - a little box – on its flat surface and unlocked its hatch; flipping open the lid. Her silver eyes widened at the sight of vacancy inside the box.

My crayons! She even took my magic markers….

After locking away the large stack of work papers in her desk and placing her "special writing utensil" box back into the closet, Soifon started to make her way back to the living room. However, before she could even get halfway down the hallway that led to the room, she was halted by a male voice.

"Wait Soi, hold on a second! Don't come into the living room yet!"

"Why not?"

"It's your first lesson in…um… concentration?" Yoruichi half lied. What Soifon didn't know was that she was about to get a very, observant lesson in a few seconds. When Yoruichi felt good and ready she leapt up on the coffee table and called for her soon to be 'surprised' little bee.

"Okay Soi, you can come in now."

During this whole wait, Soifon had been wondering what Yoruichi had in store for her focus training and had obediently waited until she was called. Hearing the soft pad of feet on hardwood floor coming closer and closer, Yoruichi readied herself. Soifon was no less than a foot away from the living room threshold now.

Yoruichi grinned.

Three.

The footsteps were literally outside the doorway.

Two.

"Lady Yorui-"

One.

A huge bang of thunder erupted, blocking out the 'poof' sound of Yoruichi transforming to her human form. Before the huge puff of smoke that usually emits from the transformation could be seen, all of the lights went out. The two (now) human women were now left in the dark, both unable to see a thing.

"Well, shit!" Yoruichi said, raising her bare arms, an 'are you friggin serious' face adorning her features.

"I guess the power went out," Soifon said after blindly searching for a nearby lamp and trying to turn one on. She had no idea that the tan goddess was wearing nothing at all in front of her. She also didn't know that Yoruichi was sneaking her way out of the room.

The naked woman made her way out of the room and into the nearby bathroom - where she left her cloths – after hearing about the power outage. She closed the door and began to put her cloths on, cursing the stupid hurricane for thwarting her master plan.

I was so close! Just my luck the freaking power goes out as soon as she was about to see me! Step one has failed. Now wha- You know what? Screw step one: Sexy Time! Commencing step two! It looks like I'll have to make some…minor adjustments… hehe… she'll be mine by the end of this hurricane.

Yoruichi chuckled, stepping out of the bathroom now fully clothed and aimlessly made her way back to the living room in the darkness, where her little bee was lighting some candles so that they can see. But, of course this caused a huge Cheshire cat grin to appear on the older woman's lips.

Oh, this is going to be a very fun and interesting night.

Well, that's chapter one. It's boring now but it will definitely get better in the next chapter! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for the next few chapters!
