Strange Bottle

Chapter 4: The Meeting

Mouth wide open as they sat there speechlessly looking at the black haired boy with red eyes. Matsumoto suddenly burst "AH! You're that boy from before!" She pointed at him. "Eh!? Rangiku-san, when did you meet Vayu!?" Hinamori completely in shock as well.

Turning her head to her friend"You know this boy!? I don't know him but, he was the one following us, like a little stalker!" A red vain appeared on the boy's forehead as he glared down at the busty shinigami "…Stalker!? Why would anyone be following you…Hag."

Matsumoto stood up from her seat hearing the rude comment "Why...You LITTLE BRAT! WHAT DID YOU SAY!?"

"Erm…Please calm down, both of you" Hinamori trying to calm them down in between them as lightning clashed with one another, giving each other death glares. The atmosphere turned dark around the table.

"Heh! Little boys should listen to their superiors and know how true beauty looks like" Matsumoto chuckled with a menacing voice. "Oh really? Well, I never knew true beauty can still be single at such old age…" Vayu snapped back arrogantly. This was clearly war between them.

"GAH! You disrespectful little brat! Just who in the world is this, Momo-chan!?" Matsumoto looking at her friend as Hinamori let out a hesitant laugh "Hehe…Rangiku-san, he was the one I was talking about…The one who came out of the strange bottle…"

Matsumoto looked at her friend and back at the boy "…What? Seriously?"

She nodded as Vayu looked at her with an annoyed expression. "You really weren't kidding…" Matsumoto slowly fell back on her seat looking at the boy. He clearly wasn't around from here and finally realized her friend was telling her the truth.

After moments of explaining to her friend with the boy sitting next to Hinamori, Matsumoto's head was about to explode with the new information "Okay okay…Wait a minute, you help people find their true love by seeing a red line connected to them?"

He nodded, Matsumoto scratched her head "Wow…How come I never heard of this before!?"

"Like I said before, Mikage doesn't sell us to anyone…I'll be shocked if you even knew about us" he sighed with his arms crossed "Besides…This is my first time here."

"Really?" Hinamori asked, he nodded "Yeah, I mean I heard about Shinigamis…Never worked with them before, you're my first."

"Hey hey, can you see my line as well?" Matsumoto asked curiously as she pointed at herself. Shaking his head to the side "No, I am only allowed to see Miss Hinamori's lines since she is the one who opened the bottle. I am only connected to see her love lines" he replied.

"Tsk! Man…I need to get my hands on one of those strange bottles, might help me become a billionaire or the most beautiful goddess ever!" Matsumoto said as she noticed his eyes, they were slightly glowing red "Hey…Why is your eyes glowing?"

Vayu scratched the corner of his eye "It's similar to a cat's eyes, helps me see the red lines during the night and day…" Now Matsumoto was curious about the boy and fascinated. Hinamori was listening as well; she never knew the world was filled with strange magic and wonder.

The girls continued to have their dinner with the strange guest and talked. Learning more about himself and his creator, Mikage. The fight between the busty vice-captain and the black haired boy was long lost and forgotten.

"HAhaha! Momo-chan! You tried to put him back into his bottle with force?!" Matsumoto laughed as Hinamori blushed from the embarrassing moment when they first met. Vayu nodded "she kept jabbing the bottle onto my head...I thought my skull was going to break."

"Mou! I was panicking!" Hinamori said with her face filled with embarrassment. Matsumoto laughed harder holding on her sides "HAHAHa Oh god Momo-chan, I never knew you had it in you to do something SO bold!" Matsumoto always knew Hinamori was kind and sweet but never to the point she would attack someone with a glass bottle.

Vayu glanced over to the other table where a group of female shinigamis sat down and giggled while they looked at him. The whispered and looked at him, confused Vayu arched an eyebrow "Why are they looking at me like that...?"

"Hehe, what are you talking about?" Matsumoto still trying to stop laughing as she saw the table and saw the girls "Ooooh...Look at you, Mr. Popular already! Hehehe, looks like you're being checked out!"

Vayu looked at the girls again "...Checked out? Why?" Matsumoto winked at him "probably cause you cute-looking! Honestly, you're not too bad looking." Vayu looked at the girls and simply ignored them 'How stupid...I'm not even a living soul or anything. They aren't even looking for true love either' he said to himself knowing the girls only liked him because how he looked, not bothering to know his name or personality...Or even knowing what he is.

Letting out a small quiet sigh 'no one seems to be looking for their true love anymore...' he glanced towards Hinamori who was smiling towards Matsumoto. He let out a soft smile '...At least, all hope isn't lost.'

"But hey, this must be a sign you and Taicho belong together!" Matsumoto cheerfully said as Vayu looked at the busty vice-captain.

"You know already Miss Hinamori is in love with the young captain?" Vayu asked, Matsumoto nodded "Of course, I knew it WAY before you even came out of that bottle! It was way too obvious."

Hinamori's cheeks turned red "Mou…Rangiku-san!"

"What? its fine, he's here to help you right?!" She smiled as she teased her "So Taicho has the line connecting, which is good!"

He shook his head "Like I said, it's not fully…It's there but, not enough to be her true love. It needs to be a solid red line in order for him to become Miss Hinamori's true love." Matsumoto scratched her chin "So…What can we do to make it solid?"

"Well…" He looked at the brown haired girl "He needs to realize his true feelings; it seems he isn't too sure about them…Miss Hinamori, you're the same too. Both of you are holding back about your feelings for each other."

Hinamori looked down at the tea cup "…I-I just don't want to ruin our friendship we have, that's all…" she quietly said.

"Do you love him?" he asked in a serious tone.

She lifted her head up and looked at the boy sitting next to her. His red glowing eyes looked like the red sand that was sparking when it was still inside the bottle. She nodded softly "…I do."

"Then don't hold back, I need you to promise me that…" he asked.

Hinamori looked at him and her friend who was smiling "Okay…I won't hold back anymore. I promise." Matsumoto squealed "Way to go Momo-chan! Don't worry, I want to help too!"

She smiled "Rangiku-san...Thank you!" she never felt so relief as a huge weight just lifted off her chest. They continued their night soon; it was time to go home. Waving good bye to the girls, Vayu decided to take a walk alone in Soul Society.

Under the full moon, his path was lightening by the moonlight. Looking up at the stars and seeing his own breath fog to the skies "So that guy is a captain, interesting for such a young guy to be a captain…Must be skilled as well."

Putting his hands in his pockets, he continued to walk as he left the walls and headed up the hill with the tree. Under the tree, he looked at Soul Society with his low glowing red eyes as cold wind blew against the tree.

"Is there something I can help you with…Captain?" Vayu said as he looked over his shoulder.

Slowly, behind the tree a white haired captain shows himself looking at the boy "You knew I was here even with my reiatsu hidden…How?"

With a smirk "…I have my ways" his eyes began to glow seeing the faint red ribbon around his wrist. Hitsugaya glaring at the boy, unable to sense his reiatsu or any form of energy. He sensed a small part of his childhood friend's reiatsu inside him and stood his ground "…Who and what are you?" he asked in a low tone of voice.

The black haired boy turned around slowly as his hands were still in his coat pocket "Who and what I am…Is none of your concern, not yet at least."

Aggravated by the comment, Hitsugaya put a hand on his sword "This is going to be the last time I'm going to ask…What are you?" Vayu stood there unmoved by the captain's threat "I'm not your enemy, Captain…"

Hitsugaya let out a chuckle "Heh. You think I'm going to believe that to an empty soul?" Vayu's eyes began to glow brighter, clearly angry by the rude comment.

Soon, Hitsugaya unsheathed his sword and attacked. Vayu quickly dodged and jumped back to gain some distance. Looking at the captain, he let out a smirk and quickly disappeared.

"What-!" Hitsugaya looking around to find the boy; He was already gone, lowering his sword to the ground. Alone on the hill, he gripped his sword tightly "Who is the world was that…And why does he have Hinamori's reiatsu?" he questioned himself as he heard the tree branches sway in the wind.
