Chapter 7 was actually pretty fun to write. If you are a Toshiro fangirl, please get some tissues because this is emotional for Toshiro. I do not own Bleach nor 07-Ghost. Thanks -Mary
Chapter 7: The Birthday Girl
-Honenia's P.O.V-
"HE DID WHAT?" I turned around quickly to see Kirei.
"Kirei! What are you doing here?" I asked. She placed her hands on her hips.
"I came to be Ayanami's Vice-Captain." I stared at her before I began to laugh.
"Wait hold it. You aregoing to be Ayanami's vice-Captain?" She nodded. I rolled my eyes.
"Idiot."
"You're the idiot!" I stood and began to walk away.
"How so?" I said as she ran up next to me.
"'Cause you kissed-" I put my hand over her mouth.
"Be quiet!" I hissed. I heard footsteps around the corner and flash-stepped onto the roof.
"What are you doing, Honenia?" She whispered angrily at me. I looked down to see Kenpachi. I sighed in relief. I jumped down and looked at him.
"Why are you still up, Kenpachi?" I demanded. He shrugged.
"No reason." He handed my a small box wrapped in dark blue wrapping-paper. I blinked in confusion.
"That's from me and Yachiru." The small girl giggled as she smiled.
"Happy Birthday!" I smiled.
"Thanks." I said, unwrapping the gift. In the box was a black and blue ring. It fit me perfectly.
"I thought you would like that. Yachiru picked it out." I hugged Kenpachi, tears in my eyes.
"Thanks, Kenpachi. When I learn my bankai, you'll be the first one to see if its strong or not." He laughed.
"Its a promise." I laughed and put my ring on. It looked great.
*Next day...
I woke up with my four younger sisters sleeping in my bed with me. I sighed.
"Alisia, Serena, Mia, Kia, wake up. NOW!" I yelled. All of them groaned.
"Why are you in my bed?" I insisted.
"Father was yelling. We haven't been in here long. Maybe 30 minutes. Oh, Happy Birthday, Onii-Sama." Mia told me with a smile at the end. I smirked.
"Thanks." I stood up and began to dress, along with my sisters. All of them kept cloths in my room, just for the sake if they ended up sleeping in my room, they don't have to run out wearing only a tank-top and a pair of panties. I walked out of my room and to the main hall to see my father arguing with Yamamoto-taichou. I paced up to them.
"Whats going on?" I demanded. Father exhaled.
"Someone was murdered last night. Around four o' clock." I hadn't been awake at that time. I gasped.
"Who was it?" I pressed. He shook his head.
"A member of the 10th squad. Misaki Rinaku, she was the last seat." I shook my head.
"Where is Toshiro-chan?" I asked. Father pointed to the Garden. I ran out and stopped when I saw Toshiro-chan sitting on the bench with his Squad around him. I knew he wanted to cry but he didn't. He was telling them that it wasn't going to happen again. He promised. Tears filled my eyes. Why did this have to happen to Toshiro-chan? I walked over.
"Honenia-hime. Happy Birthday." He told me with a smile. I lost it. I hugged him into my shoulder and began to cry.
"I k-know you're upset. You don't have to a-act like nothing happened around me, Toshiro. I won't j-j-judge y-you." Toshiro-chan didn't try to get out of my arms. He actually hugged me back and hid his face in my shoulder. I felt his shoulders shake. Father ran out.
"Honenia! Are you okay?" He asked. Rangiku nodded to Father and waved to the other members to leave.
"They are having a moment together."Rangiku whispered to my Father. He nodded and also walked away. As soon as Toshiro-chan knew they were gone, he began to cry more. I never knew Toshiro-chan was this sensitive.
"Why did they do that to her, Honenia? She didn't do anything! She was so innocent." He told me after he calmed down a bit. I rubbed his shoulders.
"I don't know, Toshiro." He shook his head.
"Can't we do anything to fix this?" He asked. I looked away.
"I can't fix everything." He looked up to see more tears drip down my face. He looked around again for Rangiku. He wasn't good at comforting girls when they are upset, was he? Rangiku, as if he called her, popped out of no where.
"What's wrong, honey?" I shook my head and wiped my tears away.
"Nothing. You feeling better, Toshiro-chan?" I asked. He nodded. We ran back to the main hall where everyone gathered. The main hall was rather large, I had come to realize. Because ALL of the squads and their Captains stood there. I ran up to where I was supposed to stand. I took a deep breath.
"You want me to talk?" I whispered to my Father. He was also clearly upset. He nodded.
"If you would." I nodded back.
"Last night, something terrible occurred. Our intelligence has found nothing of what could of happened but the obvious. Misaki Rinaku, the last seat in the 10th squad, was killed. We, as in Yamamoto-taichou, Ou-Sama, Hitsugaya-taichou, Ayanami-Sama, and myself, are working on who the suspects may be, why she was killed, how she was killed, and what the exact time she died. The approximate time she was killed was four o' clock in the morning, in the barracks of the 10th squad. We are not sure if that means anything significant but we will soon find out. Are there any questions?" I finished. Kuchiki-taichou, the Captain to the sixth squad cleared his throat.
"I'm curious by what you mean you will figure out how she was killed. Is it already obvious how she was?" I smiled.
"That is a great question and a great point, Kuchiki-taichou. There can actually be many different types of ways she was killed, and they all look the same. We are trying to figure out the certain method she was killed in and the type of weapon. I do not believe it was one of our own, but Aizen betrayed us, why can't someone else?" I explained. Kuchiki-taichou looked at me as if I were crazy then nodded.
"Thank you, Honenia-hime. That makes much sense." I bowed and walked off stage. As I began to pace quickly back to my room, I saw Aizen Sosuke. I stopped dead in my tracks.
"What are you doing here?" I asked. He shrugged.
"Nothing really. I just came to take you back to Hueco Mundo with me." He told me, as if he could. I laughed bitterly.
"Its not going to be that easy to kidnap me, Aizen. You know that." Three men came out from the corner. One was a very tall, lanky man with shoulder length black hair. The next man was much shorter, had messy black hair and green eyes. And the last man was in between the two other men. He was easily 6 ft, had spiky blue hair, and a lighter blue eyes. He was the one who caught my attention the most, not because of his hair, but because of his looks. I rolled my eyes.
"You think they are gonna make it any easier?" I pressed. Aizen laughed.
"Like you'd resist being carried off by Grimmjow?" He pointed to the blue haired man. He gave me a cocky smile, which I rolled my eyes to. I had began to carry around new Zanpactous(I'll get to how I got them). I withdrew one and took a deep breath.
"Drown them, Souten." I said before sending a huge wave of water at my enemies. They all dodged, as I figured.
FLASHBACK*
I paced outside of Yamamoto-taichou's office. They were talking about me. They gave me two new Zanpactous to see if I could use them, which I made obvious I could. I withdrew Zero and softly touched the blade. Zero had a defense system. I was the only one who could touch his blade or you got silenced. That's the only way I could use him. His silencer no longer works on my because I used it so many times on myself for that purpose, but I still touched the blade, more out of habit than safety. I could always talk to him. He always gave me advice on things. Like when Ayanami kissed me, he yelled at me for not taking him with me, because he would have materialized and kicked Ayanami's ass. Like hell was anyone like him touching his Honenia-hime. I laughed at that. Zero could materialize whenever he pleased, just for the sake of materializing I guess. I sheathed Zero again and withdrew Souten, my Water Zanpactou. I also had an Ice Zanpactou names Shinji. He was beautiful. Toshiro-chan helped me learn their names and helped my fight because it didn't seem to hurt him. His Zanpactou was Ice also. Kirei had been bothering me a lot lately on helping her learn her Zanpactous name, which she has now done. Its name was Bara and her command was Storm, Bara. She was a very pretty Zanpactou. I touched Souten's blade. So pretty.
END OF FLASHBACK
Grimmjow grabbed the arm I was holding my sword, which was my left hand, and took Souten out of it. I withdrew Zero fast and touched the blade. He tried to take Zero out of my hand was fell to the ground.
"Silence them, Zero!" I yelled. I silenced the tall guy but Zero was knocked out of my hand by both Grimmjow and the green-eyed man. They held my arms as Aizen walked to me and laughed.
"That was easy."
