"Kurosaki Ichigo" Ichigo retorted

"Kurosaki Ichigo" Ichigo retorted.

"Interesting." Renji smirked.

Mitsu sighed, "Leave Ichigo out of this, at the moment he's of no importance."

"Leave this to us, you go back to Soul Society, we wouldn't want you getting hurt now would be Byakuya?"

"Shut up Renji!" she growled, punching him straight in the face. "I'm not a helpless girl! I can fight for myself!" she stood, grabbed Ichigo's wrist and stormed off.

"Wait Mitsu, I didn't mean it like that" Renji shouted after her.

"Just leave her, we're after Rukia" Byakuya interrupted.

Renji gave up; both the men started walking around searching for their target, Rukia Kuchiki.

"This is where I leave you for now Ichigo, I hope you get stronger next time we meet. Remember my name kay? Mitsu-kia Kuchiki. The name Takeishi comes from my Soul Slayer! Well, bye!" she grinned, waved then entered through the portal to the Soul Society. Once there she went to the 6th Squad residence and entered Renji's room.

She took a scrap of paper of his desk and started writing, when Mitsu had finished she placed it on his pillow and ran off back to the living world.

Renji and Byakuya walked into the portal followed by Rukia. After delivering Rukia to the holding cell Renji went back to his room. He saw the note and immediately knew who it was from. He took it off the pillow, sat down and read it to himself.

"Dear Renji-kun,

Gomen, but I must leave for a few months, or years. When I get back I hope to be strong enough to be a captain, I hope you get stronger too. It'd be fun if we both became captains. Well good luck, please don't try to find me, I'll come back when I'm strong enough. I think I found an amazing trainer, here's a secret kay? I never could completely control this power. Tell Hitsugaya-kun I said bye too! Thanks!

Love,

Mitsu-kia Kuchiki" He laid back, not believing what she had wrote. He saw a small feather drawn on the page next to her signature, it was the color white.

"What's that Abarai-kun?" Hinamori questioned opening the sliding door.

"Nothing" he slide it under the sheets. "Just a piece of paper."

"Pass! Does it have anything to do with Mitsu-chan? She left a few minutes ago after she asked not to continue being a Death God!" tears started to form in Hinamori's eyes, "Why would she leave? What's so important to her?"

Renji sighed, "I don't really know."

Hinamori continued to cry as she sat down beside Renji.

"I know she'll come back, don't worry about it!" He tried to smile but a frown needed to come out.

"How can you be sure she won't die when she enters the living world!?" Hinamori shouted, more tears flowed from her eyes.

"Calm down, I know she's gonna come back" he tried to reassure her.

"I guess" she sighed, wiping the tears away, then leaving.

Mitsu sighed sheathing her soul slayer. "Man that was tough" her hand ran down the slice in her arm. "How much longer Kisuke-san?"

"Soon, you're almost there" he replied from the other end of the field.

"Sweet! I can't wait Takeishi! Can you?" she spoke to her sword.

It glowed red in color, and Mitsu took that as a Yes.

"We're gonna be a badass team, right Takei" she patted the sheath and smirked.

Each day that passed seemed like an eternity for the Shinigami back in Soul Society. Mitsu always livened up things back there, since she had left everyone was down once the news spread that she had quit. It had already been two months without any sign of her. Hitsugaya, Matsumoto, Hinamori, Kira, and the rest of the captains and vice-captains gathered in a large room. The vice-captains on one side and the captains on the other.

"This is pointless, what's a meeting going to do to bring that brat back?" Mayuri hissed.

"I heard that!" someone shouted from the door.
