"HE ASKED YOU WHAT?!" Kiki and Hisana exclaimed, looking at Miyako was fiddling with her black hair, they were in Miyako's room, well used to be Miyako's room. She was going to move out and live with Kaien soon and quit her job here.
"He asked me to go live with him and quit my job here and I accepted." Miyako explained calmly as she put her makeup in a box. Hisana and Kiki stood there.
"But what about us Miyako, we are your friends, don't leave us." Kiki pleaded, Miyako looked at Hisana and Kiki and pursed her lips and sighed.
"I'm sorry, but I think its best, I've always hated this life and wanted to leave it for so long, please don't make me stay." Miyako said, Hisana sighed and put an arm in front of Kiki so she wouldn't talk.
"Alright Miyako, if that is what you should do, then go ahead and do it, we'll live." Hisana said as she glared at Kiki who glared back at her.
"I'm sorry, I'll never forget you, maybe I'll see you around if we have those captains and vice captain parties." Miyako said Hisana almost pursed her lips; no one from the thirteenth court guard squads came near Kiki so it would almost be impossible for Kiki to visit Miyako.
"Maybe you can come by for tea sometime with Kaien and his family." Kiki suggested Miyako stopped packing her stuff and hugged Hisana and Kiki.
"I'll never forget any of you, you guys were like my sisters that I never had. Don't worry, we'll see each other again, I'm expected to leave by tomorrow." Miyako said as she ended the hug, Hisana and Kiki smiled.
"Go, if you are happy doing this then we are happy for you." Kiki said Miyako then shuffled through the boxes and presented Hisana and Kiki some gold combs that had cherry blossom flowers on it.
"Take it, to remember me always." Miyako said, Hisana fingered the comb and stuck it in her sash.
"Come on Kiki, we should help her." Hisana said as Kiki and Hisana started to walk around helping her pack. After they finished helping Miyako pack, Kiki decided to help Miyako and Hisana with their make up and wardrobe for the Kuchiki party tonight. Miyako and Hisana took a bath and then dressed. Hisana dressed into a cerulean kimono with a stallion galloping on it for a design in gold thread. Miyako decided to dress in a simple white kimono with green and red and blue threads for flowers. Everybody decided to get ready in Hisana's room since Miyako's room was currently being stripped of everything and put away. Kiki was helping Miyako with an intricate hairstyle while Hisana just brushed her hair and left it down, she remembered that Byakuya said he liked it down. Hisana put on the powder, an ample amount of blush and pink eye shadow, hell she even put on eyeliner, mascara, and lip gloss for him. She could dress up once for this occasion. Kiki had patted Miyako's and Hisana's arm in good luck and then shoved them outside to make them wait for their dates. Hisana had folded her arms and tucked them in her long sleeves. Miyako was smiling brightly, making Hisana look at her weirdly,
"What's gotten into you today my dear Miyako-san?" Hisana asked peering over and looking at Miyako's beaming face.
"Oh nothing Hisana-chan, nothing at all, I'm just feeling rather happy tonight." Hisana snorted and looked away from her, Hisana blinked.
"Yeah sure, you keep on saying that, but I have a feeling that there is going to be more than just a kiss tonight between you two. Oh god, did I just say that out loud?" Hisana pretended to choke and then Hisana and Miyako started to laugh. Then they felt a sharp breeze go by and stop. Hisana and Miyako saw Byakuya and Kaien right in front of them, eyeing their partners and taking their sight in hungrily. Kaien and Miyako quickly kissed before going off, Hisana and Byakuya stared at each other for about two minutes before Hisana cleared her throat.
"Hello Byakuya." Hisana greeted, Byakuya held in a smile and held out his hand for hers, Hisana gave it to him without any doubt and was on his back. Her legs instinctively wrapped around his waist, Byakuya didn't feel anything, more he had a feeling like it belonged there. Hisana draped her arms over his neck and he placed his hands under her thighs gently and then sped off. When they got to the Kuchiki estate, Hisana dropped any grip she had on Byakuya and sat down for a while, she was dizzy, again. Byakuya knelt down and looked over her,
"Hisana are you okay, you look extremely sick." Byakuya said, he was worried; he was examining Hisana's pale face. Hisana waved her arm to signal she was okay.
"No, Byakuya, seriously, I'm fine, I look like this all the time. Now, I would like some air." Hisana said as she took in four deep breaths. Hisana stood up smoothing her kimono down and then smiling at Byakuya. "I think we should get in now, I'm pretty sure the head of the Kuchiki clan wouldn't want to turn up missing at his own party." Byakuya cracked a small smile and then they went in. Byakuya and Hisana slipped easily in, they weren't noticed, until Hisana heard her name being called by a man.
"OH HISANNAAA-CCCCHHHHAAANN!!" Hisana had the urge to palm herself, she knew who was calling her, Kyouraku, Nanao, and Ukitake came up to Byakuya and Hisana. Hisana put on a worried smile which Byakuya easily saw.
"Hello Captain Kyouraku, how are you this evening?" Hisana asked chuckling nervously. Kyouraku raised his hat.
"Oh Hisana-chan you have to help me, my poor little Nanao-chan won't come drink with me." Kyouraku said flailing his arms making it a dramatic problem. Hisana had the urge to roll her eyes at the rather drunken man, but Hisana kept on her smile and looked at Nanao who rolled her eyes at her captain and smiled at Hisana.
"I can see why Captain Kyouraku, she wants to uphold herself a proper young lady then let her, not try to make her drink with you and destroy everything she has tried to build up." Hisana said calmly, Kyouraku made a fake whine.
"Oh not you too Hisana-chan, why Jyuu, why, are all of the pretty girls turning their back on me and drinking?" Kyouraku asked, Ukitake laughed nervously and tugged on Kyouraku's haori collar.
"I think we'll be leaving now Byakuya, nice to see you Hisana." Ukitake said as he dragged Kyouraku who was whining and Nanao followed. Hisana rolled her eyes at the flailing Kyouraku and noticed Byakuya slightly laughing, Hisana raised a brow.
"Tell me Byakuya, what's so funny?" Hisana asked, Byakuya chuckled and closed his eyes,
"Nothing, nothing at all, I'm just surprised you could handle that well, usually people make Vice Captain Nanao hit him." Byakuya said Hisana raised her brow higher, making it an amused brow.
"Oh whatever, it doesn't matter, we should go enjoy ourselves, after all, this is your party." Byakuya nodded and then they walked around. After talking with several captains, Byakuya and Hisana were just talking to each other and just talking while they walked around, but that was stopped. Hisana and Byakuya were talking about how noble he always acted.
"Why do you always act so noble in public, but not around me, it's rather confusing actually." Hisana said Byakuya made an attempt to snort.
"I have to, I was raised to be like this, you are my friend, so I guess I could act a little different around you can't I?" Byakuya asked Hisana rolled her eyes while smiling.
"I wonder how your kids are going to be when you have them; I bet they are going to act all noble like, like you." Hisana teased and got a good chuckle out of Byakuya. Byakuya and Hisana gracefully walked around, talking to each other when Senbonzakura appeared up in his mind, Byakuya raised a brow slightly at this.
'Byakuya Kuchiki, alert, alert, alert, five noble young ladies coming your way, goes east to avoid them! Not the way you are going, hurry up!' Senbonzakura said roughly before disappearing, but before Byakuya could even apprehend his warning, just like he said, five noble young girls all with their fans raised and poised, and their fans were opened and covering their pretty smiles. Byakuya felt Hisana tense up and eyed her as her back went even straighter. The noble girls then finally stopped right in front of Byakuya and Hisana, the leader of the group then waved her hand and all of the girls shut their fans at the same time. Byakuya wanted to roll his eyes, but god damn it, he was a Kuchiki, it was unacceptable. The five girls then realigned themselves so they were in a straight line. Byakuya nodded,
"Tao, Mizuki, Kama, Heredachi, Ibizuko." Byakuya acknowledged, Kama, the leader smiled so it showed her dead white teeth, all of the girls narrowed their eyes at Hisana but then brightened them up at Byakuya.
"Hello Kuchiki-Sama, this is a nice party, but if I may ask, who is this young lady?" Kama said Byakuya almost widened his eyes; they would make fun of Hisana if Byakuya told them her last name was not of noble wealth. Byakuya was about to speak when Hisana sweetly smiled at them and opened her eyes.
"I'm Hisana; it's a pleasure to meet you young ladies." Hisana bowed politely and brought herself up, Byakuya could see right through that fake smile. Kama frowned slightly,
"Are you not going to tell us your last name?" Hisana smiled wider, she cleared her throat,
"I do not feel the need to, um, Kuchiki-Sama, I need to go talk to someone about more private affairs, I will meet up with you later." Hisana said as she disentangled from his hold, Hisana gave him a look that translated: I'm going outside; again, I don't want to talk to these bitches. Byakuya nodded silently and Hisana bowed and left. Byakuya watched as Hisana was ambushed by Matsumoto and talking to her. Byakuya's gaze on Hisana never left until he heard all of the girls clear their throat, Byakuya looked at them.
"Kuchiki-Sama, is there something wrong?" Kama asked sweetly, Byakuya looked at her with his grey eyes, piercing through hers coldly.
"There is nothing wrong Kama." Kama giggled and stepped closer to Byakuya and traced a finger up his chest.
"Then why don't we go take a pleasant stroll outside, alone?" Kama's hand was about to go slip inside his robes but Byakuya caught her hand and threw it away; he smoothed a hand over his robes.
"I'm sorry, but I have business to attend you, please enjoy your night." Byakuya said coldly as he left the five girls and walked off.
Hisana had got to the courtyard and seated herself on a stone bench; she placed her elbow on her thigh and cupped her cheek with her palm. Hisana tilted her head back to gaze at the glowing moon and stars. She heard footsteps about a few feet behind her; Hisana knew exactly who it was.
"You know, I love looking at the night sky, it makes me feel peaceful and just let everything flow away." Hisana said, Byakuya sighed and his shoulders fell, he looked at Hisana, whose skin seemed to have a special glow in the moon, making her look like a goddess. Byakuya swallowed and tried to clear the thoughts in his head. The very naughty thoughts in his head, Byakuya didn't move. "I know it's probably wrong to think this, but I want the moon to devour me and take me away so I don't have to live anymore and can just forever bless myself in the sky." Byakuya moved closer and sat down next to Hisana.
"If you did that then you wouldn't enjoy life." Hisana continued her gaze to the stars, her smile almost fading. Byakuya looked at her.
"I don't want to enjoy this life, I've done terrible things." Hisana said she wasn't ready to break the news yet to him on how she abandoned her little sister Rukia when she was just a baby.
"They can't be so terrible, we all make mistakes, and there is nothing to be ashamed of." Byakuya said, Hisana looked down at her lap and interlocked her fingers together.
"I made one big mistake that I've been regretting all my life since I have done it." Hisana drew in a breath, it turned deathly silent.
"It can't be that bad, you can tell me, I won't get mad at you or anything." Byakuya offered, Hisana looked up at him and smiled but it quickly faded as she looked back into her lap.
"The only reason I look at the sky is because it reminds me of my little sister." Byakuya widened his eyes, he didn't know she had a little sister nor heard of her.
"Well what happened to her that makes you feel so horrible?" Byakuya asked, keeping his emotions in control, Hisana chuckled and threw her head back to look at the sky.
"I know I'm going to sound really stupid when I tell you this though." Byakuya closed his eyes and sighed.
"You can tell me, I won't think anything of you." Hisana looked at him again.
"It was a long time ago," Hisana drew in a breath and exhaled it. "When I first died, so did my little sister, her name was Rukia. When we first entered Rukongai, it was hard trying to take care of her and earn a living." Byakuya was confused by this; Hisana hadn't done anything wrong just yet so he stayed silent for her to continue her story. "I couldn't take the pressure anymore, I was slowly cracking and I cracked finally, when she was just a baby, I…I…" Hisana's voice cracked, Byakuya didn't know what to do, he really wanted to put a hand on her shoulder or something to try to comfort her, but his body didn't move. "I…I…left her, I abandoned her and never looked back. Though, after it, I felt so guilty for leaving her, for two years I've been looking for her, but I have not had any luck and I haven't found her." Hisana looked at Byakuya; Byakuya's eyes had softened when he saw Hisana crying in the dark. Byakuya brought his hand up and hesitantly wiped the tears away. Hisana then practically jumped on him, hugging him and sobbing, Byakuya was shocked and then his arms came around her and held her there for a while.
Meanwhile…
"See, look at that, I told you!!" Matsumoto said as she drank from her bottle of sake as the looked at the scene of Byakuya and Hisana hugging each other. Shunsui tipped his hat,
"You were right, but I didn't hear her story though, damn it." Then Nanao smacked Kyouraku's head with her fan.
"Do not use such profanity Captain, it's unbecoming!" Nanao said sharply as she shoved the fan in her right sleeve, her left sleeve was where she kept her zanpaktou nicely hidden.
"Oh come on Nanao-chan, lighten up a little bit! You can drink some sake with your old captain and then you can… OW!! My Nanao-chan is so mean!" Kyouraku cried, rubbing head as it was sore; Nanao had brought the end of her hilt against his head hard.
"Don't get perverted thoughts and I'm not your Nanao-chan!" Nanao spoke strictly; Ukitake was examining the two hugging.
"I've never seen Byakuya hug a young lady before." Ukitake said as he put a finger covering the base of his chin, Matsumoto waved her hand and put her sake bottle away.
"It doesn't matter, I have a feeling this is going to be the start of a great relationship." Matsumoto slurred, Ukitake and Kyouraku tsked as Matsumoto fell on the grass like a sack of potatoes.
"She's right you know Jyuu." Kyouraku said, Ukitake nodded and then they grabbed Matsumoto and left.
