Chp #4- Flying
" Wow look at that, ....so.....pretty "
" KAWAII "
" Really the captain is..."
Rangiku felt like smashing things.... She opened her eyes, grogily, to look at the time. ... Okay now she was irritated, who dare cause a commotion to distrub her beauty sleep, especially at such an early hour. Her mind still hazey from sleep, she wobbled out of bed, towards the bathroom. Since she was up anyway she might as well get ready to go drinking with Kira.
Most people wouldn't be able to handle alcohol so early in the morning, but she was a pro. She could drink any time, day or night and not really be bothered. Besides she needed to wake up a little and drinking her favourite drink, that sometimes she suspected was made by gods, always helped her focus....somehow.
She got ready for the day, showering and dressing, making sure to put on her necklace that sparkled infinitely in any lighting conditions, the one that bore the tenth divisions symbol, along with containg a precious memory. And she continued out the door, and navigated through the compound. It was odd to say the least, now she didn't quite know what people did this early, but she assumed most shinigami were up and about doing their duties.
So than why couldn't she see anyone walking through the windng halls, bustling with activity. The corridors were earily silent, the wooden floor boards screeched in some places to...it was very strange. She couldn't just ignore this, so she headed towards the office, she knew her captain would be there...working again. And he would know what the hell was going on, she was sure of it.
Even in his condition, the small captain toke care of the division, he knew eveything that was going on in this building. It was scary sometimes....he knew everything...if there was water damage, or a one of her cooking accidents had happened, it didn't matter, he just...knew.
She prepared herself for the ineviatable argument about her working, and not being permitted to leave for her sake. She stopped infront the door and toke a deep breath.
" Good Morning captain Hitsugaya " her voice was loud and cheery as she wipped open the door.
To her absolute astonishment she found the room empty...and the paper work, it hadn't been touched. The vice-captains brain began clouding with theories and hypothesis's, all of which involved her captain in fourth. Worry toke over her body and mind as she compelelty forgot about her previous plan about drinking with Kira . She immediately shunpoed out of the office and as fast as she could went to fouth, not once did she look around her, so of course she missed what was going on above her.
The wind was unaturaly cold for summer, as it blew with a cold chill, this only increased her worry.
She burst through fourth division doors and once agian, found the halls lacking any bodies, she was being to panic. Where was everyone what the hell was going on. She barged in to the captains office, hoping to see Unohnana, but only to find the same thing she had found in her own captains office, the paper work untouched and a missing captain.
She stode there frozen in the door way, was she dreaming? That had to be it, this had to be a dream. Through all of her turbulent thoughts, she had over looked the laughing she was now hearing clearly in her mind...Haineko.
What's wrong with you, you shouldn't be laughing. Rangiku's voice even in her head was paniced. Relax, can't you feel it. No one has disappeared, you just let your imagination get the best of you again Haineko continued to laugh at her weilder.
Rangiku immediately began searching out reitsu, only discover a mass amount collected outside, by the Soukyoku hill. She cursed at how stupid she had been, she surmized that her brain really didn't work well this early.
She cursed silently as she shunpoed towards the very noticable reitsu. She coudn't believe that she had missed this much gathered power. As she got closer to her destination the air became colder, and she could make out the mass amount of bodies. It looked like nearly every division was out here.
She noticed that they were all looking towards the sky, with awed expressions. As she looked up she noticed Ichigo's, Rukia's and Corina's reitsu along with most of the other captains ontop of the hill. And flying above the hill were two long, slender dragons.
They looked beyond gorgeous as both Toushiro and Kanna easily manuvered their bodies through sky, ziging and zaging in different directions. The two beasts looked like they were performing a dance, their hides glisened in the sun's rays. And their reitsu, Rangiku hadn't felt either this happy in along time. The great beasts were practically exibiting joy as they soared through the limitless sky.
It didn't take long for her join her friends ontop of the giant hill. " Ran-chan " Corina screamed her name, while hugging her. " Hello Corina-chan. everyone " she greeted.
" They sure look happy, don't they " Rangiku stated. " Yeah..they sure do, I haven't seen Toushiro so happy since he returned." Ichigo spoke quietly.
Captain Unohana just smiled, this was such an amazing sight. That's when the grounded shinigami heard it, a wondrous, melodous sound. It was like a siren, but beautiful and rhythmic. Rukia actually gasped at the sound, it was just so moving and tranquil. The two creature sounded like they were singing, it only enhanced to the scene.
" Its so beautiful " Rukia whispered, but every person on that hill had heard her, and silently they agreed. All eyes were glued on the massive beasts, Kanna looked so small compared to the white dragon flying with her, like a kitten to a cat. As they watched, they saw the massive white beast also known as Toushiro stop suddenly and look down at the people on the hill.
Everyone thought they would stop now, that such a collection of people watching them had them embarrassed. Kanna continued on, through the sky without him, as he began to descend down to the hill. But the song now sounded incomplete with out him. His massive white leather looking body landed softly and he swung his angular head around and hovered a few feet away from Rangiku.
The blond only looked into the dragon form of her captains face. This was the closest she had ever been. Its deep teal eyes were locked on her, she didn't know what her captain wanted. Toushiro wasn't able to talk in this form, like Kanna could.
" Hi Captain, if your telling me to do work I think that's unfair, after all your out here having fun " she stated thinking that was the dragons message. But she was proven wrong when the beast shoke its great head to the side, fo a ' no '.
Rangiku wasn't nervous at all, when the large creature bumbed her so gently she barley felt it, with its snout. Than he layed his head flat on the ground. " Oi, Rangku-san
I think he wants you to get on " Ichigo yelled over the noise Kanna was still admiting. Her heart soared when she saw him nodd his great white head against the ground. She smiled widely, as she gently climbed onto her captains massive head, and situated herself against one of the branced ivory like horns, that portuded high above him. Giving the dragon a regal arura about him.
Then he turned to Corina, head still low. " Corina-chan come on " Rangiku yelled out to her. The small vice captain sped over onto the white half Vargains head so fast they nearly missed her movement. She attached herself to the other branced horn, and both girls held on tightly as they were raised into the sky.
Toushiro was now looking down at Unohana, an odd look in his teal eyes. Unohana blinked unsure of what he wanted. He than deliberately looked up at the sky and back to Unohana. The healers eyes suddenly came alive in realization. She smiled softly I see, Minasuki would you like to fly with them?. Her Great whale like zanpakto made a happy rumble. " Head-captain, may I release Minasuki " she asked.
Yamamoto figured out rather quickly what was going on and nodded. Soon the giant round form of Minasuki appeared Unohana on her back. The great dragon than toke off from the cliff, followed by the whale.
Ichigo and Rukia laughed as they heard Rangiku scream, when Toushiro flew upside down...he would bet anything the short captain did that on purpose. Than the dance resumed along with the other half of the song. Minasuki wasn't keeping up with the graceful creature's but the sword spirit looked happy all the same, even rumbling along with the rhythm.
Ichigo toke a hold of his wife's hand gently, while they both watched in silence.

The room was black beyond all imagination. It was desolate and stark, no lights were on and the air was stale like all life had been choked out of the room long ago. But a single lone figure sat there humming to herself in that raised stone throne. She didn't seem to care about the vast lifelessness of the room. Her voice echoed endlessly in the baren hall that was once used for important meetings, held by her beloved.
She cradled a bundle of soft blankets gently rocking it back and forth. " You'll see my precious everything will be okay " she spoke to the bundle of soft cloth, than resumed her hummed song. Her voice was soft, but held a certain bitter and almost angry qaulity to it.
Her song finally ended as she spoke once again. " We will win, our new allies promised us. You have no need to fear my precious son, my dearest Sasuke Aizen. We will make all the traitors pay, they will fall at our feet. And you will rule as god ".
