It was just after Seigen and Konoka had brought Matsuri and her twin Fujimaru back to their normal lives knowing that they still had much to do. The twins had already taken on Seigen as a dragon-like creature. The twins after a meeting with the captains decided that they would be in the world of the living as a precautionary measure. And as such they had spent much of their days making sure that the flux of souls being reborn by the shisui mirror were safe and not the targets of the arrancars or Aizen. Their other reason for being stationed in the world of the living as the war between the arrancars and the soul society was fast approaching.
It started off as any other day could be in the autumn a slight breeze blowing through Karakura town and the trees were an abundance of colours. As Matsuri awoke she noticed her brother was still fast asleep. She was glad that she managed to achieve what she had set out to do and yet her mind was thinking of the inevitable war that was now around the corner. She then proceeded to try and awaken her twin Fujimaru with calling out to him and since that didn't work hit him on the head.
"Five more minutes…."Fujimaru moaned groggily.
"You said that half an hour ago!" Matsuri replied irritated with her brother's lax attitude. She was curious though as to what happened in Las Noches but she didn't want to bring it up due to how it caused a rift that had since been long healed.
Instead she would wait for him to wake up properly before making the daily task of making sure the citizens of Karakura town were safe. It wasn't long after that they ran into Ichigo and the gang on their way to was a brief moment as they all had things to do and promised to meet up afterwards.
Now sensing the spiritual pressure of an enemy nearby the twins set off to see who it was. Along the way she would remember the first time she had sensed this spiritual pressure. The male and captain Zaraki were in battle when she arrived that time. It was awkward as she was treated by a pest by both sides. Even just after it she had shown she could hold her ground.
When she arrived the male had already known who she was and looked at her with his blue eyes.
" I finally get to kill you both." The male grinned looking at both Matsuri and Fujimaru. He had disliked the fact every time they had previously fought he was told to hold back. This time he was allowed go all out in an attempt to see how formidable the twins truly were.
