chappy 6 up! Shunsui kidnapped Yoji, what will happen now?
Read on!
When Yoji woke up he found himself tied to a chair in the middle of the room. He looked around. There was nobody else. He tried to get loose but failed. How did he get in this mess? Suddenly he heard the door open behind him. "Oh are you finally awake? That' wonderful." The person behind him untied his ropes. "I don't think these will be necessary."
When he was free, Yoji turned around to see who freed him. It was quite a sight indeed. He wore a pink flower kimono and he had a scruffy beard. Despite his akward appearance, Yoji could sense that this guy wasn't a pushover. Judging his spirit energy, he was captain class. The man suddenly pulled out a bottle out of his kimono and started drinking. Yoji could smell it was sake, a very strong sake. When he finished drinking he offered the bottle to Yoji. "You want some too?"
Not while I'm on duty" Yoji replied. "What do you want from me anyway?"
"Oh, You're the straight-forward type heh?" the man laughed, "Well let me introduce myself first. My name is Kyouraku Shunsui, 8th division captain, but you can call me Shunsui."
"So what do you want of me?" Yoji asked.
"Well the rumors say that you have a magic device that causes alot of trouble. Apparently you can make people fall in love."
"Maybe I can" Yoji said carefully.
"That's quite a talent" Shunsui continued, "You must be very popular with the ladies huh?"
"I'm not allowed to have relationships." Yoji replied, "Where are you going with this? Surely you didn't kidnap me to talk about my love life."
"Nothing eludes you hey? Well I'll be honest, I need some of your magic." Shunsui smiled. "You see I have this lovely vice-captain Nanao-chan. She acts really cold but deep inside In know she loves me. She just needs some encouragement if you know what I mean."
"I get it" Yoji said, "Don't worry, I'll make her realize her love for you."
"Really?" Shunsui seemed surprised by Yoji's quick cooperation. "What's the catch?"
"No catch. I'm just tired of hiding and running away from you Shinigami. Besides, you and Nanao are on my list so I have to bring you together." Yoji answered in a toneless voice. What other choices had he? If he stayed with a captain he had more chances of survival.
"Well I don't know what that list thing is you mentioned but if you're willing to help me that's fine. Well, we better leave now. Nanao is in a meeting for the Shinigami Women's Association now. If we hurry we'll still be able to catch her." Shunsui left and Yoji followed,hoping that this would go better than all his previous actions.
Meanwhile at the Kuchiki mansion
Renji stretched himself with a loud yawn on the comfortable bench. He was so bored. Babysitting that human girl was such a pain. She hadn't said a word since Rukia and the others had left. Not to him anyway. All she said was "I love you Kon" or "You're so cute" in such a sweet tone that it made Renji want to throw up. She even had locked herself up in a room so that she could be alone with Kon. Well, at least she didn't cause too much trouble. Renji could even take a nice rest and...
"Whaaa! It's horrible, please someone help me!"
Renji jumped up, surprised by the loud scream. Was that Tatsuki's voice? He ran to Tatsuki's room and starting banging on the door. "What going on? Open the door!"
Renji stepped back when he heard the door being unlocked. Tatsuki appeared, her eyes filled with tears. "What happened?" Renji asked worried "Are you hurt?"
"No I'm fine" she sniffed, "But look!" She held up Kon in her right hand and one of his arms in her left land.
"Oh thank god" He sighed "I thought something bad had happened."
"It is bad! My Kon is fatally injured! He is dying!!" she screamed, swinging Kon's seperated arm in Renji's face.
"Alright alright, I'll see what I can do." Renji promised.
"Really?" Tatsuki's face cleared up. "That would be nice of you" She handed him Kon and his arm. "Please be careful okay?"
"I will, I will, just promise me that you won't leave this place till I'm back." Renji replied.
She nodded with a faint smile. Renji left Kuchiki mansion with Kon. Surely there were some women in Seireitei who could fix him. Maybe Hinamori or someone from the Shingami Women's Association could help.
"Are you going to repair me?" Kon asked suddenly.
"I guess so" Renji mumbled.
"Bring me to Inoue-san or Nee-san." Kon paused for a moment. "Or better yet, bring me to Rangiku-san! I'm sure she'll be able to help me."
"Shut up you sick animal!" Renji yelled, "None of them can sew you back together!" Renji put his hand in Kon's mouth and pulled out the Soul pill. "That will shut you up." Renji increased his pace. The sooner this was over the better.
Shinigami Women's Association meeting.
Shunsui and Yoji sneaked down the hallway that led to the meeting room. "Now we have to be careful" Shunsui whispered. "We have to make sure they don't spot us."
Yoji sighed. "Can't you just call Nanao here? I mean, she is your vice-captain."
"No no, this way it's more fun. And I don't want Nanao to know that I ordered you to make her love me." Shunsui said, while slowly opening the door. He looked through the narrow opening. "Perfect. You got a good view from here. Now do your magic. Nanao is the one with the glasses."
Yoji took Shunsui's place before the opening and aimed his bow. It was a difficult shot,but nothing he couldn't handle. Silently the arrow left his bow, heading towards Nanao. Just before it hit, a small hand snatched the arrow out of the sky,scattering it in pieces.
"What was that Soi Fong?" Yoji heard Nanao yell.
"Assassin" a cold voice replied.
"I think they spotted us Shunsui, what should we do..." Yoji turned around, only to see Shunsui running away in the distance. "Good luck my friend!" He yelled before he disappeared out of sight.Yoji realized he had to leave too but it was too late. The door slammed open behind him and he was dragged in the room.
"Here's the culprit" a small woman in a sleeveless outfit said. "What should I do with him Nanao?"
"Let's find out who he is first before we gut him." Nanao replied in a harsh tone.
"I know who he is, it's Sparky!!" A cheerful voice yelled.
"Do you know him Yachiru?" Nanao asked surprised.
"Sure, he gave me chocolates and he has a toy that makes people sparkle hug and kiss!" Nanao looked confused at the little Shinigami and then turned to Yoji who was still being held down by Soi Fong. "What does she mean?" Nanao asked.
"Nothing really" Yoji stammered, " I mean I just showed her some magic tricks."
"What is this?" Soi Fong asked,holding up Yoji's bow.
"That's his sparkle toy!" Yachiru cheered. "Now we can make people sparkle!"
"No it can't!" it's just some old bow I use in my magic tricks!" Yoji desperately yelled. If Yachiru got a hold on his bow again it would mean the end of Soul Society.
"Don't lie to us worm" Soi Fong coldly said, "I saw you trying to shoot Nanao with it. If you don't confess I'll take you to 2nd division headquarters. We have plenty of ways to make people talk."
"Alright alright I tried to shoot her!" Yoji cried. He didn't know what Soi Fong would do to him but he didn't want to take any risks. "I only did it because her captain ordered me to. He wanted her to love him. It was his idea I swear!"
"My captain?" Nanao turned red and her eyes burned with rage. "Why that..."
"So you're bow really can make people hug and kiss huh" a orange haired woman with a large bosom suddenly asked.
"So what Matsumoto? I care more about that weasel of a captain that tried to brainwash me!" Nanao yelled.
"Calm down Nanao" Matsumoto replied, "You can get revenge any time you want. first let's discuss what we are going to do with..." Matsumoto looked at Yoji. "Err what's your name?"
"Y-Yoji" He answered with a broken voice.
"Right, Yoji-kun here has a nice ability, why shouldn't take advantage of that?" Matsumoto smiled.
"Nonsense" Soi Fong replied angrily "I say we lock him up and let supreme captain Yamamoto decide what to do with him."
"Are you sure Soi Fong? I mean, he could make someone love you, someone like... Yoruichi-san." Matsumoto grinned as she saw Soi Fong's face cheer up.
"Hmm if you put it that way...well why not?" Soi Fong smiled.
"Excellent! Now what do you think Nanao?" Matsumoto asked.
"Alright I guess I couldn't hurt" she replied. "Yay we're going to play again!" Yachiru cheered.
"Well that leaves you Kiyone, what do you think?" Matsumoto asked the small Shinigami. She hadn't said anything the whole time.
"I guess it's okay" she answered.
"Wonderful!" Matsumoto smiled while turning to Yoji. "Now then ,for your first task I had this cute couple in mind..."
Back at Kuchiki Mansion
Renji entered the house,tired of all the running. It had been quite a task to find someone who could fix a torn plushie. Killin Hollows,no problem; healing fatal injuries, piece of cake but sewing? Shinigami didn't like such boring and plain work. Eventually he had to go to Rukongai to find someone who could fix Kon. Renji inserted the Soul pill back in the stuffed animal. The moment it entered the body,Kon started screaming. "You bastard, how dare you taking me out of my body! I spent an eternity in that stinking pocket of yours! Don't you Shinigami know a washing machine?"
"Shut up! I got your arm repaired didn't I? You should be more grateful." Renji angrily replied.
"Grateful? I should..."
"Oh Kon you're back!" Tatsuki screamed.
"Yea he's back,unfortunately." Renji sighed, "I found someone who could sew his arm back on in..."
"Oh thank you Renji!!" Tatsuki suddenly hugged Renji. In her enthusiasm the kiss that was meant for his cheek landed on his lips. Renji stepped back. "Hey calm down, it was no big deal really."
Tatsuki pulled Kon out Renji's arms. "Don't be so modest, you're a hero." she smiled. When he saw her smiling face, Renji heart started beating a little faster. She was actually pretty cute. Why hadn't he noticed that before? He scratched his head. "Uh well no problem. I was glad I could help."
Tatsuki didn't answer but returned to her room with Kon in her arms. Renji watched as the door closed behind her. "Be careful this time okay!" He yelled. Renji touched his lips. He could still feel the sweet taste of Tatsuki's lips burning. He shook his head. "What wrong with me? It was a mistake. She didn't mean to kiss me." Renji sat down next to the door of Tatsuki's room. " If Ichigo finds that cupid and he fixes Tatsuki," he thought. "maybe I could..." His thoughts were interrupted by Tatsuki's voice who was calling Kon cute.
"Never thought I would become jealous of that stupid animal" Renji mumbled.
