Ok, a few things, Louise's reaitsu color is now pink with a blue outline. Just to let you know to avoid any confusion from the previous chapter. Aslo, that was not her shikai. Her shikai will be unveiled soon, along with her banka, so please be patient. I will also do better to youse the proper terms for spirit energy and pressure. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy this chapter.

And thank you Saddas74 for beta-ing.


Head captain Yamamoto looked around the Gotei 13 meeting room. Seeing that all the captains were present, -except for Gin Ichimaru, Sosuke Aizen and Kaname Tosen- for they betrayed the Soul Society and currently reside in Hueco Mundo. Raising his cane, he slammed it on the floor to get everyone's attention.

"Attention, all of you." Everyone's idle chatter calmed down and they all looked over at Yamamoto, waiting for him to continue. "Ten minutes ago, the Department of Research and Development detected a huge spike in reiatsu, originating from Halkeginia. Normally this wouldn't be cause for concern but it seems that it came from just one person. Captain Kurotsuchi, please continue."

Nodding his head in acknowledgement, Kurotsuchi continued. "Like the Head Captain said, this wouldn't be any concern but the amount of reiatsu that was detected was far above that of any human could ever hope to exert, save for one person…"

All captains except for Unohana and Soi Fon- who instead smiled- nodded their heads in silent agreement. They knew who he was talking about and they were too afraid to even speak her name.

Clearing this throat, he carried on. "Now, by analysing it, we found that this person also happens to be related to her," all male captains paled at the thought except for Kenpachi who sported a maniac grin on his face, "and it could be possible that she has a Zanpakuto."

Every captain began to talk amongst themselves, for a human to have a zanpakuto without being a substitute shinigami or a pure shinigami was unheard of.

"Excuse me sir." squad 8's captain Shunsui Kyoraku spoke up gaining everyone's attention in the process. "Are we going to send someone to perform reconnaissance and gain more information?"

"No, Squad 12 will continue to monitor the situation and alert us if anything new happens, the meeting is now over and you are all dismissed!" Once more raising his cane to bang on the floor, every captain silently left the meeting room. Yamamoto opened his eyes just a bit and began to wonder if this would affect Aizen's plans in anyway. Making his way to his office, he wondered just what he was going to tell Kisuke Urahara.

(End scene)

Walking up to the Headmaster's office with a slight limp was no fun. Though Montmorency was able to heal the foot, but the pain was still there. Miss Longeuville didn't help either for she was as quiet as a statue. But if this kept up any longer, Louise thought she would go insane!

"So, why does the Headmaster want to see me?" She was trying to break the silence with a question but Miss Longeuville kept silence and didn't offer so much as a sideways glance.

"Is it because Guiche and I fought each other?" Still nothing. This was starting to get on Louise's nerves.

"Can you at least tell me what he is going to do?" Louise asked before turning her gaze to the stone floor beneath her.

"We're here."

Looking up, they were indeed at the Headmaster's office. Louise was about to yell at Miss Longeuville, but that would only get her into trouble, and the Rule of Steel stated that she had to keep control of her emotions at all times.

So instead of getting angry she just raised her posture in the air like the proud noble she was and entered the office. But she was surprised to see Professor Colbert there as well.

Which immediately caused her to lose all confidence she had and became afraid of what the consequences were going to be.

"Ah, come in Miss Valliere. We have much to discuss." Headmaster Osmond gestured to the one of seat in front of desk.

Louise nodded her head in acknowledgement and sat down. She already had her gaze directed to the floor. She knew she was in trouble. Fighting between nobles was forbidden for a reason. So she accepted the inevitable. She was being expelled!

"Now then, before we begin is there anything you would like to say first?" The Headmaster could tell that Louise was in distraught, but he didn't think that she would be this distraught. 'What was she so worried about that warranted this submissive behaviour?', he wondered.

"I'm sorry! Please don't expel me!"

Old man Osmond blinked and he blinked again. "Come again?"

Picking up on the Headmaster's confusion, Professor Colbert decided to intervene. "Miss Valliere, why would we expel you from this institution?"

Great now they were playing with her. Louise could feel tears welling up. She began to sniffle. "Because, *sniff* Guiche and I fought, *sniff* and fighting between *sniff* Noble's *sniff* is *sniff* forbidden!"

Tears began to fall from her face. She knew they were disappointed with her. So they were going to expel her, where she'll return to her family's estate and then be immediately wed to Viscount Wardes, where she will be nothing more but a baby maker and a trophy wife to parade round in gala functions and official cermonies. "I'm so sorry! It'll never happen again! I promise, just please don't expel me!"

Headmaster Osmond had no idea how to handle this. Here was the third daughter of Karin "The Heavy Wind", sobbing and crying like a little child. So he gave a pleading look to Professor Colbert to handle it for him.

Professor Colbert knew exactly why he was making him calm her down but it still irked him to no end that Osmond wouldn't at least try.

So he walked up to Louise, placed a comforting hand on her shoulder and spoke. "It's ok, Miss Valliere. You are not going to be expelled. Please calm down." It seemed to work because Louise stopped sobbing and she only sniffled every now and again.

"Re- *sniff* really?" Her eyes were extremely hopeful. Which made Professor Colbert wonder why she was so afraid of being expelled.

"Yes, we just want to discuss what exactly your familiar is and what was that strange energy that you were releasing, ok?" He gave her a smile, hoping that would help put her at ease.

It seem to have its intended effects because she wiped away the rest of her tears and blew her nose, and began to tell them exactly what they wanted to hear.

(End scene)

It took twenty minutes for Louise to tell them everything she knew so far. Like apparently her familiar is called a "Zanpakuto" and that it's a "Soul Sword" and that strange energy substance was called reiatsu. She tried her best to answer all the questions, but it soon became quite clear that she either had no idea how to explain certain things or that she tried to not say too much.

Still, Headmaster Osmond and Professor Colbert got what they wanted and quickly sent Louise back to her dorm, where she would remain until the next morning as punishment for the fight.

"Thank you, for your time Miss Valliere. You may go now."

Standing up from her chair, she nodded to both the Headmaster and Professor Colbert and left. After the door was shut, Osmond looked directly at Professor Colbert. "Well, what do you think about this new information Professor Colbert?"

Putting a hand to chin, he quickly shook his head. "Well, it does seem strange, but Miss Louise couldn't tell a lie even if her life depended on it. She's too easy to read."

"I agree. But unfortunately there isn't much that we can do now. We can wait and watch to see how this develops." Looking around for his pipe but not seeing it, he sighed. "But until then, we must increase security measures around the Academy. Tomorrow after the Day of the Void, is the Familiar Expedition, and with the Princess coming to personally oversee it, we must make sure that the Academy and all of its treasures are safe."

"Understood, Headmaster. I will talk to the staff about it."

"Good, you're dismissed."

Bowing once and then leaving the eccentric Professor wondered just what the future would hold for Louise Francois.

Unbeknownst to both of them, Miss Longueville heard every word. Now she just had to figure out if this would hamper her plans. But in any case, she would be successful, one way or another.

(End scene)

As soon as Louise was in her dorm she immediately set her familiar against a wall… And threw the biggest rage fit the world has ever seen!

She upturned her table, toppled over her dresser, and threw with great difficulty the small bedside table. She was mostly pissed off because she embarrassed herself in front of both the Headmaster and Professor Colbert!

She was not a little girl anymore and yet she was just so frightened and scared that they would be disappointed in her for what she'd done.

Picking up her familiar once again, she threw it also to the floor. If it didn't somehow come into her life and she summoned some form of animal then none of this would've happened.

*knock, knock, knock*

But the sound of someone knocking on her door, interrupted her internal musings. Making her way to the door, she was surprised to see Siesta there. She was also surprised to see a tray full of food.

"Good evening, Miss Louise, I'm here to drop off ... What exactly happened here?"

Taking a look around, Louise's dorm looked exactly what happens after one of her infamous explosions. Louise killed the growing blush on her face and replied. "Nothing, happened." And then she made her way to the bed and began to sulk.

Siesta knew it was a lie. But whether it was to save face or because she didn't want to talk about it she did not know. Still, there was no way Louise could eat with her room in such a state.

So after putting the tray of food gently on her bed, she began to right the room. She righted the dresser and the table, put back the bedside table where it belonged swept the floor for any broken glass and debris, piled them in a rough pile near the door, and then set the food on the table, under five minutes. A new personal best, for Siesta.

She then turned to Louise who was still sulking and walked over to her. "Miss Louise, your dinner is ready."

If Louise heard her, she gave no indication that she did. Sighing to herself, she got up but before she took a single step, she felt a tug on her sleeve. Turning around she saw that Louise was clutching onto her sleeve. But what really surprised her was that her eyes were puffy and red. But she knew that look all too well. She didn't want to be alone but also she didn't want to talk about it.

So instead, Siesta sat back down and embraced Louise in a hug. First Louise stiffened, but then she began to relax and then she began to cry for the second time that day. During which, Siesta was offering words of comfort, like telling her "It's ok, it's ok. Everything will be fine." And "Just let it out, you'll feel better."

Siesta also knew that this was going to be a long night.

(End scene)

Or maybe not.

After Louise cried for about thirty minutes, she finally calmed down and began to wolf down her dinner. Emotional breakdowns often left people feeling hungry or tired. And sometimes both, but with Louise, it just left her hungrier than a wolf.

All the while, she just wouldn't stop talking. Talking about her family, the Academy, her Familiar. She talked about anything and everything.

After downing her fifth cup of wine, she turned to face Siesta who just stood there. "Thank you for listening. And thank you for bringing my dinner."

Siesta began to collect the dishes and looked over at Louise and smiled at her. "You're welcome Miss Louise. And…" Siesta gained a small blush on her face. "Thank you for helping me today."

A blush that Louise also returned. "I-Err, it was nothing. Any decent person would've done the exact same thing."

"But they didn't!" Siesta was surprised the amount of anger that her voice carried. "I mean, everybody saw what happened but you were the only one to do anything."

Looking away, she continued. "You, a Noble who had no reason to stop Mr. Gramont, and help out a mere commoner like me. I… Don't know how to properly thank you but… Thank you Miss Louise, I'm in your debt."

Now Louise was speechless. Here was a commoner- a maid- who worked for the Tristain Magic Academy, saying that she was in her debt? But she felt something, stir inside. She knew exactly what to say.

"If you can find time in your busy schedule to visit, then considered your debt paid."

Now it was Siesta's turn to be speechless. She knew that Louise wouldn't take her to be her mistress, but she thought that she would ask for money or be her own personal maid. Instead all she had to do was make time to visit her? "I will see what my schedule is like."

Grabbing the tray, she turned back once again. "I'll be back with a brown and dust pan to clean up the broken glass and dirt." She then bowed and left… But she forgot to properly close the door all the way.

(End scene)

Louise just sat on her bed and was reading a book she swiped from Eleanor's personal collection called "The Mistress and her Servant". This was the first time she read it but she still couldn't believe that Eleanor reads this type of thing. Love, sex… Needless to say Eleanor lost a fair bit of credibility with Louise and yet the book intrigued her a bit. Maybe, love between women wasn't as unnatural as she first thought.

Shaking her head to rid herself of these thoughts. She knew better. Love is reserved for men and women, women can never love each other… right?

It was also in that moment that Flame decided to stop by. He stood up on his hind legs and leaned onto Louise's bed. Louise turned her head to look at her unexpected guest. Forcefully resisting the urge to shriek with fright, she asked in the most serious voice she could muster. "What do you want?"

This apparently was the wrong question to ask, because as soon as she finished speaking, Flame leaned over, grabbed Louise by the collar of her shirt and began to drag her away to Brimir knows where.

Louise, unable to grab her familiar and fend off and not knowing where her wand ended up during her fit of anger was dragged helplessly through the halls of the academy until Flame came to rest in front of Kirche's door. Letting Louise go, but standing behind her so she wouldn't try to escape.

Louise stood up, looked at the door, then back at Flame. Flame pointed his snout at the door, and Louise received the message. She knocked one and waited.

"Just a moment!" Kirche's voice rang out loud and clear and Louise dreaded what she was going to see when she entered the room. She would have tried to run, but then Flame would've just tripped her or grabbed her again, so might as well get this over with.

A few seconds later, and the door opened and she entered. Louise looked around. There were so many candles, and no other lighting. Flame came in after her and made his way to his little bed and nestled in for the night.

"Well, looks like Flame did a wonderful job of retrieving you." Turning her head to where the voice was Louise was stunned beyond words at what she saw.

Kirche was wearing lingerie so revealing that it hardly left anything to the imagination. The panties and bra- two sizes to small- were lacy black which contrasted nicely with the see-through purple nightgown that she wore.

Louise's face became beet red and she did the most sensible thing imaginable. Covering her eyes and hoping that it was a bad dream.

"Oh," Kirche couldn't help but giggle, this was so cute. "Don't behave like this Louise, besides you have yourself to blame for this."

"What exactly did I do to deserve this!?" Louise's voice was cracking and it rose several octaves. She was praying to Brimir that this was a bad dream.

"Your fight with Guiche," Kirche got up from her bed and began to advance towards Louise. "It lit a fire so hot inside of me, that I'm afraid I've fallen for you."

Louise with her eyes still covered couldn't believe what she was hearing. "You've fallen for me? But… But…"

"Shh, don't worry," Kirche then wrapped her arms around Louise, an act which caused Louise to stiffen. "I'll treat you gently since it's your first time." She whispered in a sultry voice.

Louise gulped. She knew where this was going and she didn't want any part of it. Maybe this was karma, coming back to bite her since she stole that book from her sister?

Louise could feel Kirche beginning to undo the buttons on her shirt and a hand going down to her skirt. She began to praying to anyone who would listen to her for a miracle. A miracle that she needed right now!

"Kirche… It's me. Zac, I'm ready for our…" Louise removed her hands from her eyes and looked where the new voice came from. Sitting on the window sill was a third year. "Um, I don't mind having a third person Kirche, but, give me some warn-"

It was also in that moment that Kirche sent a fireball his way, knocking him off his perch and fall down to the ground.

"-ing!" a distant thud and a grunt of pain were the last things that they both heard from Zac.

Putting her wand away, she began to pick up where she left off at. "Now, where were we? Ah, yes. I remember."

"Kirche, it's me Adam. I'm here for our-"

Another fireball to the window and another man fell to the ground.

"- Fun Filled Night!" A thud and a grunt later, Kirche nodded to herself and put her wand away.

"Now then… Shall we continue?" Kirche just had one button left then, she and Louise could-

"Kirche! Tell this guy that it's my night with you!"

Whipping around to the sudden increase of voices, Kirche spotted, Adam, Daniel, Jack, Gary and William all trying to force their way through her window in order to get to her.

Several tic marks appeared on her head before she launched a third fireball at all five of them. After hearing six thuds, she sighed and turned around so she could continue, but Louise was long gone. And on top of that Flame was sound asleep so he wouldn't be able to fetch her a second time.

"Well, this is no fun. Now what am I supposed to do…" Kirche contemplated this question for a good while before coming up with a decision with a sly smile. "Well, there's always next time."

(End scene)

Louise walked down the hallway towards her room, where Siesta was just finishing up.

Noticing Louise, Siesta bowed to her. "Hello again Miss Louise. Is there anything else that nees to be done?"

"Kirche… loves… me." Louise stumbled into her room and closed the door behind her. She didn't need to see anyone and didn't want to see anyone. She just wanted to go to bed and hope that what happened was just a bad dream.

But before she did that, she took one look at that book and immediately tried to come up with a plan to give it back to Eleanor without her finding out that she stole it. A task that she will have to sleep on for now.

(End scene)

Louise woke up on her cloud again, but she didn't bother getting up. Instead she just looked around. The people were out again, buying food in the marketplace, drawing water from the well and just having a good time. They sounded very happy.

"It's peaceful isn't it?"

Not even bothering to turn her head she already knew who it was. "Yes, it is. It's very nice."

The hooded woman allowed a smile to adorn her face. "I like it when it's like this. People out and about, kids playing in the street. It brings a smile to your face doesn't it?"

Louise had to agree with her. It did bring a smile to her face. Sitting up she turned so she was looking at the hooded woman. "When exactly am I going to learn your name?"

"When you stop seeing me as your familiar." Was her reply. She still couldn't believe that Louise still saw her as nothing more than just a tool. It hurt her. It hurt her every day.

"But you are my familiar aren't you?" Louise didn't like the fact that they were having this conversation again. This person was her familiar, nothing more nothing less. "So tell me your name."

"We won't tell you our name Princess, until we think you are worthy of knowing it!" That same distorted voice again. But where was it coming from?

"What! I'm a Noble! I have a right to know your name you ungrateful-!"

"Enough! It's time to train her. Just be patient, your time will come."

Walking away from a flabbergasted Louise, the hooded woman began to walk away.

Turning around as she sat down upon a cloud, she began to give instruction to Louise. "Now, we are going to work on controlling your reiatsu as well as figure out how much you have. You may begin now."

Nodding her head, once again, Louise went through the steps and once that geyser erupted, she was told to keep going, so Louise forced that imaginary geyser to become bigger and bigger.

And did it ever get bigger, and more powerful. The swirling pink energy with a blue outline, was flowing at an incredible rate, which caused her skirt, hair and cape to stand straight up, but causing the cape to flap at an incredible rate.

But the most astounding thing was, instead of the original half meter radius, it was now a three meter radius all around her. Looking up, she could tell that her reiatsu was pretty much a vertical column at this point. But she could see air waves also being exhausted from where she was standing because the middle aged woman's cloak was also billowing back.

The cloaked woman looked extremely proud, and then something happened that she did not expect to happen. Louise was beginning to wake up.

Not just by a natural occurrence, but somebody was forcibly trying to wake her up. It then dawned upon her, because she hasn't entered this place through communication, they could be effecting the real world. Louise's massive amount of Reiki- Spirit Energy- and Reiatsu could also be on par with one of the Gotei 13! Meaning this could be very bad.

So she materialized Louise's Zanpakuto, she immediately charged which caused Louise to lose focus and to stop the geyser from erupting.

She then calmly dematerialised it and said, "It's close enough to your usual wake up time… We are done for tonight."

(End scene)

Louise woke up the next morning, but instead of facing the sun, she was instead looking into the face of… Professor Colbert!

"Gah! What are you doing here!?" Louise tried her best to keep calm but honestly, seeing someone's face as soon as you open your eyes, is a little unsettling.

"Miss Valliere. You are hereby kicked off school grounds for the day." Colbert was trying to calm, trying to rational, but if it wasn't for his days as a soldier, he and probably half the students and faculty would be dead by now.

"What do you mean, I'm not allowed on the school grounds for the day?" Now Louise was confused. They settled the matter with Guiche yesterday. So why is she still in trouble?

"Because you have put many people's lives in danger." Taking several deep breaths to calm himself and he continued. "You somehow released a massive amount of that energy substance in your sleep and it caused a massive amount of pressure to build up around you."

Louise still not following, just nodded her head so Professor Colbert could continue.

"It woke up every single student and teacher outside of this tower, but you nearly killed every student in this tower. So until you can properly control your power or find some way to contain it, you are not allowed to comeback until dinner time. Is that understood?"

Louise could not believe she did that. She almost killed everybody in this tower, because of her training during the middle of the night. Things could not get any worse.

The Book of Mages, Chapter 3

"Hello everyone, I am Headmaster Osmond and this is my mouse familiar Chuchu." Holding up Chuchu in his right hand, and his staff in his left, he continued. "And today we're going to be talking about the various tasks that a Familiar performs."

Placing Chuchu on a desk and handing him a peanut he then scampered off, while Osmond took levitated a piece of chalk and began to write some basic tasks. "A Familiar is the eyes and ears of a Mage, as well as a life long companion. It's a mutually beneficial for both the Familiar and Mage, because they are both equally loyal to one another."

Chuchu then came back onto the desk and began to squeak excitedly. "Ah, so it's blue today is it... I still think she would look better in lacy black though."

"Mister Osmond!"

Freezing like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar, Osmond slowly turned around to face a very angry Miss Longvuelle.

"I told you that if you ever looked at my panties again!" She began to raise her wand high and was drawing a massive amount of willpower.

"Ah, no please take it easy with the old man!"
