Chapter 4: The Truth
Miyuki was brought out of her thoughts by a shallow reiatsu and shallow foot steps. She turned the picture back over and put it on the floor before looking up to see her Captain walking towards her.
"Hello Captain, what brings you here?"
"Miyuki I came to talk to you about something" Toushirou replied.
"Ok go ahead"
"I have a feeling I know you from somewhere, do you know why?" he asked in a concerned tone.
"Do you not remember at all?"
"Remember what Miyuki?" Toushirou asked.
"He doesn't remember" she thought.
"If you know then tell me how I know you" he pleaded.
"Why bother telling you if you don't know if you know me or not?" she held the picture tighter.
"Why don't you take a look at this and see if you remember at all" she shouted, throwing the picture on the ground near him before getting up and walking through her door and slamming it shut.
Once she was inside her room, she picked up Kuroyuki and headed into the seireitei. She didn't know where to go, she thought of the only person who she could talk to about this; Momo Hinamori, so she headed to 5th squad barracks to talk to her about this mess.
When she arrived outside 5th squad barracks, she thought about what she was doing. Once she made up her mind she pushed the large gate open and walked in, to her surprise just inside the grounds she came across the 5th squad Captain.
"Hello there, how may I help you?" Sousuke asked.
"Hello Captain Aizen, I'm a friend of Lieutenant Hinamori's, may I please speak with her?" Miyuki asked.
"Ah you must be the new subordinate that Captain Hitsugaya has gained and of course you can talk to Momo" he replied.
"Momo someone is here to see you" he called.
A few moments later a girl a little taller than Miyuki came out of the building and looked at her captain then to the girl.
"Miyuki is that you?" she said in a shocked tone.
"Yes" Miyuki replied.
With that answer Momo walked up to Miyuki grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the building. Once in the building Momo continued to hold Miyuki's hand as they made their way to Momo's room.
When they walked into Momo's room, Miyuki noticed it was pretty much the same as her own room just a mirror image of it. Momo walked over to her back door, opened it then pulled a substance out of the fridge, before going in the cupboard and getting out two cups.
"Would you like a some juice?" Momo asked Miyuki who was now sitting on the edge of her bed looking out the window.
"Yes please Momo" Miyuki replied.
Once Momo had poured a cup of juice for her and Miyuki she put the carton back in the fridge, walked over to her bed, handed Miyuki her drink and sat next to her.
She stared at Miyuki wondering when she last saw her in the state she was in; Miyuki looked like she had just had a fight with one of the kids out in rukongai.
Momo hesitated before asking 'Miyuki are you ok?' the girl in question just turned and stared at her not knowing how to answer.
"What happened, you look like you got into a fight with someone and are about to cry" Momo stated.
"He doesn't remember" Miyuki replied.
"He…. what do you mean?"
"When you left, we continued to talk to each other, then after a few years he disappeared" Miyuki explained.
"I though he had passed on to the human world never to be seen again, then look what happens, I come here, join get told I'm on a trial at 10th squad, walk in only to find HIM sitting at a Captains desk"
"Miyuki calm down, please explain to me what you mean"
"I though he was dead Momo, I though Toushirou was dead" Miyuki answered biting her lower lip to stop herself from crying.
"Toushirou, I thought he came to see you. He told me……….." she trailed off.
"When I came to see you, I asked him if he was going to see you, the answer I got was yes, which is the reason I never said anything when ever I came to see you, I was foolish to believe him"
"He never came to see me Momo, not once, I thought he was dead, and then I join the academy, then do this training on Captain Yamamoto's request and he ends up as my Captain" Miyuki shouted.
"Calm down Miyuki shouting won't help, I am going to have to talk to him, especially for lying to me" Momo confirmed before putting her arms around her friend to comfort her.
After she had calmed down she headed back to her quarters to rest up for the night ready for the following day which consisted of a mission with her squad members.
Once she opened her room door she remembered what had happened before she left the fight with Toushirou and the picture she threw at him.
The picture she had always carried in her bag when she was in class, the only thing that really kept her going.
She walked over to the drawers that had the framed photo on them, picked it up, walked to her bed and sat on it.
"I can't believe you don't remember and of all things you lied to Momo" Miyuki thought before getting herself ready for bed in her dark purple kimono, then she put the picture back on the top of her drawers, turned her lights out and got in bed.
