Chapter 2
xXxXx
Yuki wanted to stay where she was. The feeling of security, love and power flowed through her as she rested on the mountain. Her inner mind stretched before her in a white mist blanket and her zanpaktou lay next to her in materialized form. Kasumi, the mist goddess, was in her human form of a beautiful young girl with pale skin, light grey hair and silver eyes. Kasumi lay with her head on her wielder's lap, staring up at the mist-covered roof as she wondered the pain in her wielder's heart.
"Yuki-hime, why do you love him?" Kasumi asked, glancing at her smiling wielder.
"You know very well why I love him, Kasumi-chan," Yuki said as she carded her hand through Kasumi's hair. Kasumi sighed but accepted her wielder's answer.
Yuki and Kasumi both relaxed, knowing it would take Unahana-taicho a while before Yuki needed to wake up.
After a while a light thumping against Yuki's head told her it was time to wake up. As she stood, Kasumi waved at her wielder as Yuki started to wake up.

Yuki woke with a start, feeling like she had been drenched in water. She flailed for merely a second before the calming effect of Unohana-taicho washed over her. Yuki sighed, really hoping she wasn't being a nuisance if Unohana-taicho was here personally to take care of her. Vaguely Yuki could make out what others around her were saying.
"How long?" It was Matsumoto-fukutaicho.
"The poison had been in her system for a while. There's no knowing how much damage has been done," Unohana-taicho replied as she shifted her hands from Yuki's shoulder to her stomach. Yuki twitched lightly at the feeling, which did not go unnoticed when Unohana-taicho removed her hands.
"Yuki. Yuki! Time to wake up now Yuki," Matsumoto-fukutaicho whispered in her ear.
"Stop that! She should actually not wake up now. Let her rest and naturally get rid of the poison."
Yuki twitched again at the frosty voice of her taicho.
He had come.
Matsumoto laughed softly, "Look taicho, she likes your voice."
A soft growl, "Matsumoto!"
"Everyone out, now. She needs to sleep." Unohana-taicho ushered everyone out and softly shut the door, and the noise out.
Yuki sighed but slipped under.

The next time Yuki woke she was able to open her eyes and blink up at the soft, dull light shining in the room. On her right was Unohana-taicho. To her left was Matsumoto-fukutaicho and at her feet was her taicho.
They all watched her, waiting for her to react. Yuki blinked at them before opening her mouth. "Is there something on my face?"
Matsumoto laughed, "Yeah that's Yuki-hime alright."
Unohana-taicho stepped forward and said softly, "You underwent some heavy damage but the good thing was your reiatsu did some kind of cushioning that blocked most of the poison from the hollow."
Yuki smiled, "Her name is Kasumi, the mist goddess."
Matsumoto blinked at their taicho before turning back to Yuki, "How long have you known your Zanpaktou personally?"
Yuki thought for a minute before she answered, "I've know her since I died."
"Then why are you still unseated if you can interact with your Zanpaktou?"
Yuki frowned, "I tried once, but the man I talked to said taicho would not be needing any new people."
Hitsugaya-taicho frowned before he strode from the room in a hurry.
Yuki turned to Matsumoto-fukutaicho in confusion and, seeing her face Matsumoto explained that they had never found any application so the man had lied to Yuki. Yuki snarled under her breath at the idiocy of some people. By refusing her, the man could have set the entire group in danger.
Yuki tried to stand but with a hand to the head courtesy of Unohana-taicho she was out like a light.

Not really much changes going on so far. It's more a getting loose ends tied down.
Peace.
Out.
