"ARRRGHH" yelled Captain Hitsugaya as he attacked me. This what? Our third training session? But anyways, I feel like I improved so much. Not only my attacking power has gotten stronger, my reflexes are fast too. Oh and I learned how to flash step. It's really handy.

"Is that form very useful?" asked Captain Hitsugaya. I look down at my form. Both hands on my Zanpukuto, legs in a ready stance and my toes pointed forward. There is nothing that I see wrong with my form.

"If you were in that stance with a enemy, how would you react fast enough if they were to do this" said Captain Hitsugaya. He suddenly disappear and I felt something cold by the right side of my neck. I look over to see his Zanpukuto, blade touching on the side of my neck. I sighed, he would always win like this.

"So what do you propose to do then?" I questioned since I honestly didn't know what stance I should use.

"Well for starters, your Zanpukto is more of a single-handed type of Zanpukuto. So using it with one hand would be ideal" suggested Captain Hitsugaya.

"But how will that help me block an opponent's blade if they're behind me?" I asked.

"Turning around for instance, would be much faster. If you were to turn around with the stance you were using earlier, you've would've needed to turn your waist. But where would your sword be? Now, if you were to use one hand. You could turn your waist and your shoulder and your sword would be there to block it. Though it's a habit of all of us really, using two hands and all. Even captains do it. Usually using two hand would help if you were to overpower someone" babbled Captain Hitsugaya. My poor poor mind. That's simply way too much information to soak in but I got the important parts right? The turning around quicker stuff.

"So using one hand is more ideal for my Zanpukuto but I can use two hands anyway?" I asked to make sure. He sighed, then turning away and waving his hand.

"Forget everything I just said" he said. While he was walking away I got a little idea. Walking towards him, I slowly went into a sprint. I got ready to attack him when he turned around to block me. Just what I planned. Just about when his blade touched mine, I flash stepped behind him and did his finishing move that he uses on me. Except I was using it on him.

"Ha ha you got me" He admitted.

"Okay, if you're so confident let's have round 2 shall we?" smirked Captain Hitsugaya.

We fought for quite a long time. During this time, I tried to include some kido into the fight.

"Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creations, flutter of wings, ye lord who bares the name of man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south! Hado number 31, Shakkaho!" I chanted. A large red ball appeared at the palm of my left hand. I aimed and fired at Captain Hitsugaya. Just when it was about to hit him, he said a kido of his own.

"Bakudo number 39, Enkosen" he yelled and a large yellow circle appeared in front of his own palm, acting as a barrier. My Shakkaho quickly disappeared when I hit his Enkosen.

"Dammit!" I cursed.

"Your Shakkaho doesn't stand a chance against a Captain's bakudo" said a voice behind me. Both me and Captain Hitsugaya turn around to see who was speaking. The person behind is...

"Captain Kuchiki" I said. So this is the Captain of Squad 6. He has a very serious face and his eyes are dull, like a rainy day. There is no life to his eyes. But his hair though. It's quite, odd. With it's three parts of hair in front of his face and two parts on the right side. I find that it's a very weird hairstyle when you style it like that.

"Captain Kuchiki, sorry to ask this but what you doing here?" asked Captain Hitsugaya. That's right, what is he doing here. From what I know, the Squad 6 barracks is quite far from here.

"I was walking by when I felt familiar Spiritual Power being used" answered Capain Kuchiki in a monotone type voice. Then he looked at me, for quite a long time. It was to the point that it got a little creepy. When I was about to say something Captain Kuchiki said something before me.

"Learn other kidos so you have more of a variety of attacks. But I take it that you're more of a swordsman aren't you?" I nodded at his remark. He turned around to leave the exit of the training grounds.

"Remember everything Captain Hitsugaya teaches you. He may be young but he is quite a fighter if I do say so myself" and with that he flash stepped to who know where. There is something about Captain Kuchuki that sparks my interest. He seems so familiar but this was the first time I met him. Did I meet him somewhere before? I'm not sure.

"Let's finish our fight Haya. Then we can go rest. I still have some paperwork to do" said Captain Hitsugaya. And like that we continued our fight.

Byakuya's POV

Who was she? She seemed so familiar. Her Spiritual Power, it felt like a Spiritual Power that I know. Where have I felt it before? Wait, stop with these question, I must concentrate. I cannot allow these thoughts to distract me. The law comes first.

I am walking back from the Squad 10 training grounds to go back to my own barracks. Renji should be back from his mission to the world of the living. So I would have a lot of things to do. It's getting late too.

But that girl, she reminds me a lot of Hisana. Especially her eyes, they are something that I always loved about Hisana. But, in another way, she reminds me of myself somehow. Could she be? No, Haya is gone. Every since she disappeared, it's like she vanished from existence. Oh, how much I regretted going to work that day. I was so centred on getting Rukia used to this part of the Soul Society and protecting her because it was Hisana's dying wish, that I forgot about my own daughter. Stupid me, I even forgot her face. It's been that long.

Then again, the Nishimura twins were and still on the loose. Who knows how many people they have killed over the past 20 years. I just hope that Haya is safe and that I can find her one day.
