Nanao: ^^' umm well FTP is currently occupied I would like to remind the readers that FTP-san does not own bleach we are only of Tite Kubo-sama alone =D tnx, Shiki-sama however is a creation of FTP, enjoy the chappie ^^ Oh and FTP-san is putting the bio for Shiki-sama at the end of this chapter and also in her profile as Shiki shall be used again in another fic ^^
"I'm surprised, you actually managed to catch them," Nanao said visibly impressed as she put the book she was reading down,
"You actually stayed here to enjoy the show?" Shiki asked annoyed at her friend.
"I'm sorry but I would get killed if I treid to help you, think of me as moral support, oh, by the way, the book you lent me is amazing I love it!" Nanao changed subject trying t lighten the mood.
"Add Urahara to our must kill list," Soifon said still struggling against the reitsu blocking ropes of invention of Mister Hat and Clogs.
"Wasn't he already on her must kill list…"a voice mumbled, "Shiki-taichou what?"
"Kiyone, what's happening?" Isane said staring at the two captains tied up scowling in a corner
"Oh you're just in time Isane-nee-chan , Miki-fukutaichou, we're just putting on the tux on our dear captains, they will be taking Youruichi-san and Momo-chan to the ball,"
"Taichou? Who…" Miki asked her captain
"One word; Rangiku-san"
"Ah," Isane and Miki said in unison
Yoruichi grinned and went to a giant white blanket concealing something which the two captains knew they would not like at all.
"Nanao?" Shiki asked giving her a questioning look.
"Urahara-san's, Tessai-san brought that,"Nanao responded shrugging, "I know as much as you do for the rest,"
Yoruichi pulled the veal off to reveal two giant dressing rooms to which Shiki sighed in relief but Soifon tensed.
"If Urahara made that we should start running again once they free us," She explained to Shiki who had given her a puzzled look.
"Exactly, it's a special dressing room who won't let you out unless you're wearing the stuff written on the small computer screen, we put some of your hair here, in this tube thingy, so the machine recognizes you and write tuxedo and tada!, no going out for you unless you're all dressed up," the were-cat grinned.
"If he had time to build this couldn't he take you to the ball!" Soi fumed
"Oh he built this years ago…right now h'es to busy plus I want to see you all dressed up," Yoruichi responded
"What about you, you can't go out unless…,"
"This thing works on reitsu, I can walk in and out with no problem, it's you who can't,"
"I'm a GIRL, a WOMAN, and so is Shiki I'm supposed to wear a dress not a tux!"
"Yes, I know, but I don't have a partner so I'm going to take you, plus you weren't going anyway in a dress so might as well come with me and have some fun in a tux,"
Soifon could only gape at her old mentor as she was pulled by her in one of the dressing rooms. The woman yanked a strand of her hair and put it in a tube, wrote the instructions and then threw her inside. Rangiku did the same for Shiki who only scowled. Both had now realized escape was no longer an option.
Operation 2.1 - dress up Shiki;
"Just because I'm here inside doesn't mean I'll put that on," Shiki spat at the tuxedo who was clearly made for her. She had to give it to Hinamori, she was really observant and had taste. The suit was of a dark blue colour with a sky blue tie and a white shirt.
"Oh come on, Momo-chan really wants to go be nice and take her," Rangiku pleaded
"Why doesn't she go with the free man like, like Ikakku-san?"
"Down with the flu,"
"Yumichika-san?"
"Guess who's taking care of baldy,"
"Hanatarou-san?'
"Going with Isane-chan,"
"…Kenpachi?"
"You're that desperate?"
Rangiku laughed and pulled at the younger girl's haori much to Shiki's protests. Soon they were struggling and punching at each other. Rangiku was of course thrown out in a few seconds but as she rolled and the wall put a stop to her race she smirked at the others holding up Shiki's haori in triumph.
"And now to get the rest," she said tossing the haori to Nanao who was giggling in a corner very amused.
Miki sat down clearly dreading the mood her taichou would be in. 'And she really wanted to go with him, poor taichou,'
"Come on Shiki, we only got a few hours left to the ball, be a good taichou!"
However as Rangiku pounced back inside to her dismay she landed on a very wolfy captain who smirked arrogantly.
"Cheater!" Rangiku cried grabbing her tail and pulling roughly to which Shiki responded by twirling her tail and throwing the shocked fukutaichou out of the dressing room once again.
Shiki snorted and sat down, 'Now how the hell do I get out of here…'
"T-taichou?" a shy, whisper called
"Hinamori fukutaichou, everything okay," Shiki asked in her harsh wolf voice
"umm, well, yeah i-I j-just, ahem," the girl stuttered playing with her fingers nervously then she suddenly bowed low, "I'm sorry to inconvenience you Shiki-taichou! I know Rangiku-san can be really pushy sometimes, she just wanted to help me,"
Shiki sighed and swore under her breath, 'Damn, she really wants to go huh…guess there's always next year for him…'
"Momo-san, do you want to go to the ball?"
"Wh-what? I mean well," Momo scratched her head as Shiki rolled her eyes and finally answered truthfully, "I really, really want to go…"
"I'd go without hesitation if someone asked nicely…" Shiki said matter-of-factly hoping the girl would pick up
The girls eyes widened and she hesitantly said still bowing, "Please Shiki-taichou would you take me to the ball even if you have to dress in a tux,"
Shiki laughed and transformed back into a human, unlike Yoruichi though she was fully dressed, as unlike the Goddess of Flash, she was taught to think of clothes as an extension of herself and thus learnt to transform with them.
"That's what friends are for right, Momo-san?," she told the beaming girl.
Meanwhile outside Rangiku fumed, "That's it, after I got all beaten up it could have been that easy!"
Operation 2.2 – dress up Soifon
"Can't you take someone else like umm Sentaro-san?"
"Kiyone-chan is going with him,"
Soifon could only stare at her former mentor at the sound of that news; the two hated each other's guts.
"Ukitake-san said they needed to bond…" Yoruichi said as she saw Soi's expression
'They'd do anything for the guy…'
"Hisagi-san,"
"Rangiku-chan made him take Orihime-chan, one of the ryoka,"
"Rengi-fukutaichou?"
"He lost a bet with Rukia-chan and is going to bring Kuukaku-chan,"
"Ichigo-san,"
"Taking Rukia-chan,"
"Then, well, how about…," Soi fretted trying to think of any other male who was still available, 'Come on a name any name,'
"Zarakii,"
To this Yoruichi's eyebrow twitched in annoyance and she readily pounced on a frustrated Soi who yelped.
"Yoruichi-sama, with all due respect, get off!"
"Not until you accept the fact that you're gonna go to the damn ball, in a damn tuxedo with yours truly," Yoruichi answered as they both struggled.
Soon Yoruichi managed to untie the small captain's sash and take away her haori which she tossed out of the dressing room.
"Hey!"
"That way you'll have no choice but to put on the tux," Yoruichi answered a mischievous glint in her eyes, "Soi? You were quite ticklish as a kid weren't you?"
Hearing this, the poor petite Chinese woman stepped back as her old mentor smile stretched as if to compete with that of the chesire cat until she hit the wall of the room. Yoruichi jumped one more time on Soi who couldn't find any escape routes landing on her stomach she placed her hands on Soi's sides and promptly tortured into submission the 2nd division's captain. Soi bit her lips and squeezed her eyes trying to fight the urge to laugh but soon she was sent into a fit of giggles.
"St-st-op, pl-please,"
"Not until you agree…" Yoruichi teased not relenting on her torture.
Soi struggled and wriggled under her mentor laughing and soon she could take no more, "Ok-Okay, Okay! You-you win!"
At this Yoruichi allowed the girl to get up and lean on the wall gasping for air, "Still comes in handy your weakness,"
Soi gave Yoruichi her most disapproving look to which Yoruichi winked and stuck her tongue out at her student playfully.
"Now put on the damn tux, little bee we got a ball to attend"
Soifon pouted but kept her word and walked up to the tuxedo looking at it as if she could make it erupt in flames by thoughts alone. Then she stopped, "I can't change until you're here,"
"You've got nothing I don't have," Yoruivhi grinned making Soi blush badly, "I'm just kidding, I'll be back soon, got to go dress up myself, and Soi?"
"What?"
"Thanks kid,"
FTP: and tada next time we'll see how the ball will be going! Ze epilogue soon to be posted!
Yoruichi: *smug* My little bee in a tux, for me, how cute!
Soi: *sulks* correction you FORCED me in a tux…
Shiki: *smiles* better than a dress though ^^
Rangiku: tell the truth you wouldn't have minded putting on a tux you just wanted to have some fun didn't you? *tick mark*
