Shinji grimaced from the sudden loud noise that came from the rest of the Visored, he started to rub his ears, while the Visored stared at him with complete shock eyes wide and mouths agape.
To his ever growing dread the first one to come back to reality was Hiyori. Shaking her head she looked at Shinji and growled. "YOU IDIOT, WHAT'RE YOU THINKING GOING BACK TO THE PLACE THAT WANTED TO KILL US ALL", she said as she slapped him with her yellow sandal, knocking him backwards along with the sofa.
Just as the others were about to place in their own two cents regarding the situation, Hachi placed his hand on Hiyori's, an action that told her to stop. Hiyori glared at Hachi for a couple seconds, before lowering her sandal and giving out a heavy sigh, you could never be too mad at Hachi.
Seeing as no one else was going to speak, Hachi gave and appreciative nod before looking back towards Shinji, who just finished placing the sofa back up and started grumbling about some hot headed brat. Taking a deep breath Hachi started "Everyone I know you're all startled as to what Shinji just revealed, but please allow him to continue so that we could get a much better understanding regarding the situation." Everyone looked at each other, about to give their unofficial leader a beatdown, before they backdowned and glared at Shinji.
Rubbing his cheek as to where Hiyori hit him, he gave Hachi an appreciative nod before looking at everyone else. "Alright, alright, i'll tell ya why I agreed to something that could fuck everything up that we worked so hard for over the years, but let me get this out."
Taking a deep breath, Shinji started "Okay the only reason why I really agreed to this, was because I owe Kisuke a huge debt, WE owe Kisuke a huge debt. I mean the guy's done so much for us, if we didn't have someone like him, we wouldn't even be here. He helped us escape Soul Society, got us situated in the real world, helped us control our hollows, the guys practically our savior !"
At that they all had to agree, if it weren't for Kisuke, they all would've turned hollow the day they were infected by Aizen's experiments.
"I couldn't just tell the guy to buzz off, so I decided to just go with it since it'll pay for our debt and i'll be the only one to get involved in this shitshow."
Perking up, Mashiro asked "What do you mean that you'll be the only one involved, Shinji-kun ?"
Sighing, Shinji told them. "If I go to the seireitei and they find out i'm one of the exiled Shinigami, they'll deduce that the rest of you are alive, so I decided that i'm going to ask Kisuke to get you guys out of Karakura and move you to a more crowded city."
Blinking, Love looked at Shinji with worry. "Shinji you don't mean…."
"That's right Love, if I don't end up coming back, I want y'all to promise me you wont engage with any of the Shinigami and move to a safer place."
Everyone looked wide eyed at Shinji before Kensei glared and responded with. "So you're telling us to just hide and cry in a corner, when one of our own just died ?"
"Look I know none of ya like it but just promise me that you will, I won't be able to think with a clear mind, if ya don't, i'll end up like a kebab when I first step in."
The rest of the Visored didn't know what to say, they've been with each other for so long that they didn't know what they would do if one of their own got killed. They all looked and it was clear they were all worried, well Hiyori was really pissed, but there was some worry in her being.
With a final sigh, Lisa looked towards their leader and replied. "We promise Shinji." It left a bitter taste in her mouth, but she knew Shinji wouldn't have a clear, if he thought the rest of them were in complete dange
"When are you leaving Shinji-kun ?"
Surprisingly it was Mashiro who asked the question, and Shinji blinked in response. "I…..don't know, I completely forgot to ask him."
Hiyori just scoffed. "Of course an idiot like you would forget something so simple."
"Shaddap ya damn snaggletooth." Shinji retorted with a gopher like smile.
Veins throbbing all over her forehead, once again, she prepared her sandal before they all heard some cheesy jazz music.
"That music…..". Rose exclaimed with a shiver.
"Oh sorry that's mine." Once Shinji pulled out his phone they all grimaced when the music became even louder.
'How could you listen to something like that ?' They all though with a sweatdrop.
Flipping open his phone, stopping the music in the process, much to everyone's relief, Shinji said a simple hello to the caller, and the person who responded made him blink in surprise.
"Ah Hirako-san it's a good thing you answered, it's time."
"Time ?, time for for what ?"
"To go to Soul Society of course."
Taking a second to process what Kisuke just said, he asked. "You mean like….. right now ?"
"Well of course, the reason I didn't tell you because I thought you would be to anxious."
Shinji swore he could hear the mirth in the creepy bastards voice. "You could've at least told me before I left yer stupid shop."
"I'm sorry Hirako-san"
Bastard didn't sound sorry at all
"You should hurry though, Hirako-san, my student is getting really impatient"
Sighing, Shinji gave out a simple ok, before hanging up. Getting up and stretching, he gave out a satisfied sigh as to hearing the pops in his bones, before slouching and moving towards a dresser that kept his clothes. He knew if one of the captain's from back then were still retaining their position they would recognise him, even if his hair wasn't as long as before. They would surely remember his devilishly handsome good looks though, he thought to himself with a smug grin.
Going over to the dresser he pulled out an all black hoodie, which he didn't even remember getting, and a black surgical mask, again doesn't remember when he got 'em.
So now he was wearing a long sleeve black formal shirt, a white tie, white pants, white belt, and white formal shoes with black soles. (A/N ; basically what he wore with his fight with Grimmjow, with the exception of his overcoat.) He then put on the black hoodie and the black surgical mask, but he didn't let it cover his face just yet.
Turning to a nearby mirror, he started to check himself and he had to admit. "Damn I look good." He said out loud with a giant smug smile, all of a sudden he heard snickering, and turned around to see the Visored laughing, slightly blushing in embarrassment, he gave a sheepish smile before he walked towards them.
"I'm guessing most of you heard the phone call ?" A couple nods and he continued. "Well as you heard, Kisuke decided it would be a funny prank to inform me on the day the brat's are supposed to be heading out to Soul Society, so I guess I'll be heading out for a couple days."
They all gave solemn nods, before they started to say their goodbyes to Shinji, surprisingly Hiyori seemed more nervous about saying goodbye. When Shinji finally turned towards her, her head was turned away but she looked at him from the corner of her eye and said. "Just…make sure you….be careful." Though it was quiet, Shinji just gave another of his giant smiles, before walking towards the entrance.
He stopped, and looked over his shoulder. "Don't worry I will,...Hiyori-chan." He finished with a snicker as he shunpoed out before her sandal could hit him, she could still hear his stupid laugh as she stood there fuming, her face completely red. Upon hearing laughter behind her, she snapped her head towards the Visored, only to see them whistling, acting like they were all innocent. Growling to herself, she walked over to the sofa and plopped herself on it, staring at the ground. Seeing as there was no need to stand around anymore, the Visored went back to their own activities, trying to keep their mind off the situation their leader was in.
