Blooming Snow Chapter Seven
My captain is the most boring shinigami EVER!
Paragraphs may alternate if the editor is being stubborn. And yes I will be translating Hiroki's meowing. And yes the bald the jokes are back. Yuki calls Byakuya 'Killjoy' for obvious reasons.
(Hiroki's translation.) Thoughts Zanpakuto names and speech/ kido spells 'human references' …= long speech in which I'm too lazy to type. _flashback_ ~inner world~
"Yuki? Why do you need to see her?" Yumichika asked.
"I would like to know what happened to her from her point of view.
"YUKI!" Ikakku called.
"Yeah, ow! Wood burn!" I wince as I tripped on the floor.
"Mew?"(whyz you on the floor?)
"Hiya, Agh! After burn!" I exclaim as both Ikkaku's and Yamamoto's baldness blinds me.
"After burn?" Yumichika asked.
"It's like the term aftershock after an earthquake, but since I got burned twice it's after burn." I come up the weirdest logic ever.
"I see, Yuki could you tell me what exactly happened to you from you point of view?" Yamamoto asks.
"Or you could just read 'Blooming Snow chapter 5 Abducted.'" I smiled. "Fine … and there was a soul trying to escape from some hollows, even though I was injured and put myself at danger I slayed them anyway and I sent her to the Soul Society." I finally finish a summary of chapter 5.
"You risked your own life in order to save a soul, not many shinigami have the courage to do that." Yamamoto stated in surprise.
"I'm getting a promotion aren't I?" I ask knowing what was coming.
"Indeed. I believe that squad 6 has a position open." Yamamoto told me. It looked like he expected me to say I didn't want to squad 6.
"Okay, what's the position?" I ask.
"Well originally I was planning on sending you squad 7, but the captain doesn't like cats. So the next available position is the 3rd seat of squad 6.
"Meow?" (Why?)
"Alright. Thank you Head Captain Yamamoto."
I finally find my way to the Squad 6 barracks. "Ready Hiroki?" I ask nervously, the rumor was the captain of this isn't a psycho scientist (Mayuri), or a guy that's loves violence (Kenpachi). But this guy's extremely strict. I open the doors and I nearly run into a guy with burning red hair.
"Oh, you're Yuki." He said.
"Yep that's me and this is Hiroki! I greeted and pointed to the cat on my shoulder.
"You know you're kinda cute when you aren't covered blood." He smiled.
"What?" I strutted.
"I'm kidding. I'm Renji Abarai by the way c'mon I'll take you Byakuka's office.
"Is that the captain's first name?" I ask Renji.
"Yeah, I'm also the lieutenant." He stated proudly.
"You're Yuki I presume?" a rather bored voice asked.
"That's me." I answer.
"Mew!" (Hiroki at your service.)
At the sound of the mew the figure at the desk looked up. He looked rather unhappy to see me.
"You're younger than I thought. And get that thing out of here." My new captain ordered.
"I'm sorry captain, but that "thing" is Hiroki, and he's my cat." I said trying not to sound annoyed.
He sighed. "I am Captain Kuchiki, and Squad 6 runs on one main rule. That rule is: Men who uphold the law, who can offer up everything for the sake of the division, and who will devote themselves to their practice. And cats aren't devoting themselves to the divison." He said in a boring tone.
"Captain, aren't you being a little harsh?" Renji asked.
"No, I'm not, I expect that cat gone by tomorrow, Yuki." Byakuya ordered.
"But I've had him since he was born. We just recently found each other again." I complained.
"Too bad. Yuki, if I have to take him from you I will." Killyjoy gave me the death glare.
"If the cat goes so do I!" I yelled blurted out.
"Yuki, why don't I show you around?" Renji suggested trying to break up our fight.
"Fine"
Later that night at dinner.
I was sitting with Renji and Killjoy because I was the 3rd seat. I hate seating charts, but Hiroki seems to really like the undercooked fish.
"Simply unacceptable!" Byakuya complained. Then I got an idea.
"Captain I'm a really good cook." I stated.
"Really, then would you mind fixing those foolish cooks errors?" He asked.
"Only under one condition." I smiled.
"What would that be?" the death glare retuned.
"Hiroki stays." I reply giving my cat Renji's tuna.
"Ugh! Why you…deal." He sighed.
At the point where he almost blew I swore here and then that he would know the wrath of 'I hate cat haters'.
The next morning.
I got up sort of late for Squad 6 standards, but hey I'm teen I need my sleep. But I heard my captain arguing with someone whose voice sounded a little too familiar.
"I told you no. That's final." Kuchiki said angrily.
"I will see that brat!" the other voice snapped back.
I exit the room and fall back in fear. "Mayuri?! What are you doing here?!" I ask in pure horror.
"Just to ask a few questions" Dr. Smiles replied with the joker type grin.
"Yuki, just attend to making breakfast." Byakuya told me.
"RARWW! *hiss" (Yuki I'll protect you! *hiss!)
"Nemu! I'm sorry I haven't come to see you yet." I apologized.
"Oh, it's alright. OH!" Nemu was taken by surprise as Hiroki jumped into her arms.
"That's Hiroki, he's my cat." I smile because Hiroki seems make Nemu happy.
"He's a sweet heart isn't he?" She asked while he's in heaven, literally.
"Nemu put that dumb thing down, you failure!" Mayuri ordered.
I took Hiroki in my arms. I set the fluffy orange kitty on the ground and causally walk over to Dr. Smiles. No one call my kitty dumb!"GET LOST YOU LOSER, CAT HATER, CHILD ABUSER, MURDERER, PSYCHOTIC FREAK OF NATURE!" I scream in his face. Both Captains were silent. "Now!" I demanded.
"You can't tell me what to do brat!"
"Kurotsuchi, you're causing my 3rd seat a lot of discomfort. Now leave before I draw my bankai." Byakuka threatened.
"Breakfast is sereved!" I announce as I get done making breakfast.
I nearly get trampled trying to get to my table. Man, they must really like my food. "Captain Kuchiki, earlier what did you mean your Bankai?" I ask my rather boring captain.
"It's the final form of a Zanpakuto. It takes years of mastery to use it to its full capability.
"Oh, I see. Um, why did Mayuri want to see me?" I ask not wanting to know the answer.
"He wanted to know how you go back here. You will not go with him. Kuchiki made it crystal clear. Then he muttered "You probably wouldn't make I back…"
"MAN! Yuki where did you learn to cook, it's amazing!" Renji complemented.
"Well my mom thought me how to cook when I was five, and I've been cooking ever since." I smiled remembering her face when I brought her breakfast when she was sick.
"I assume you've achieved your shikai. Let's see it Yuki." My Captain said after breakfast while we were training.
"Okay, Yukihana!" I wondered what went wrong. "I got to work before…" I shrugged.
"Try giving it a command" Suggested Renji.
"Alright." I held my Zanpakuto above my head. "Protect me, Yukihana! Agh!" I dropped my Zanpakuto in shock.
"Pathetic, can you not even hold your sword?" Killjoy crossed his arms.
"I'm still not used my chain sword turning into a scythe!" I protested.
"An ice Zanpakuto? Impressive." Renji said.
"Renji, face Yuki would you." Byakuka said.
"Got it, Howl, Zabimaru!" Renji activated his shikai, his katana turned into a large chain sword. "Here I come!"
"I'll take you down!" I yelled as I swung my ice covered scythe, I accidently froze Renji. Whoops! "Um captain…" I ask.
"I'll take care of it Yuki; you handle your blade nicely, well done." He answers.
"I'm still cold." Renji shrived in his bed.
"I'm said I'm really sorry." I apologized again.
"Mew!" (Pet me!) Hiroki walked across Renji's face.
"Is he always this desperate for attention?" he spat out a couple cat hairs.
"Well he thinks if you sick, you stay in bed, if you stay in bed you're supposed to pet him." I stated. "Come 'ere Hiroki." I patted my lap. But he just lies down by Renji's hand and fell asleep.
"I see you're feeling better Renji." Our captain walked in.
"Yeah but I'm still cold." Renji sighed.
"Well I hope you can handle a visitor." Byakuka replied and walked out.
"Huh? Rukia, long time no see!" He smiled as I helped him sit up.
"Who's this?" a short shinigami with black hair asked.
"I'm Yuki Momochi. I'm the 3rd seat." I answered her.
"I see, I'm Rukia Kuchiki." She walked over to Renji. "How did you get like this in the first place?"
"I…it was my fault." I admitted and lowered my head.
"Is your Zanpakuto an ice type?" She asked.
No, it's a 'Jynx' in disguise! Of course it is! "Yeah it is." I stared at her for a moment. "You like bunnies don't you?"
"I love bunnies!"
"Well bunnies are okay, but kitties are the best." I object.
I was bored that afternoon, I had nothing to do, and I even finished the load of paper work Captain had given me. I decide I'd just mediate.
~ "Where am I now?" I ask myself looking around. I noticed where ever I was, it wasn't the soul society. The ground was covered in a lilac purple snow. And it was snowing the same color. I barely expected to be attacked, but I was.
"You are Yuki Momochi, am I correct." A masculine voice asked.
I turned around I'm confronted by a middle aged samurai in deep and light purple armor; his skin and hair were pure white. But I noticed he had my Zanpakuto.
"Who are you and where is this place?" I ask.
"Me? I'm Yukihana and this is your inner world." He answered calmly.
"…You're a guy named Yukihana (Snow Flower)?" I try to hold back my laughter.
"Yes I'm a male named Yukihana, big deal!" he turned red while trying to keep his fierce straight face.
"Kitty!" I bent down and picked a little Japanese Bobtail. "Wait my inner world?" I asked confussed.
"Your inner world is based off your personality, your likes, and strengths."
"Can you teach me Bankai?" I ask eagerly.
"I don't think you're ready for that yet, Yuki." The purple samurai crossed his arms. ~
Later that evening – "I'll beat this time, Yuki!" Renji yelled as he attempted to disarm me.
We were interrupted by a surprisingly pissed off voice. "YUKI!"
"What did you do?" Renji asked as we flash step to our Captain's office.
"What's wrong Captain?" I ask quickly.
"Your cat, Yuki, your cat." Byakuka said through gritted teeth.
"What do you mean…oh" I noticed that Hiroki has gotten sick on Captain Kuchiki's haori(the white cloak that captains wear.) "I'm sorry…"
"Lucky for you, your cat ran as he got done vomiting." He looked like he was going to blow up.
"Um, do you want me to clean it for you Captain?" I ask trying to calm my Captain down.
"No, I have a Captain's meeting to go to in an half an hour." He sighed. "There won't be enough time."
"But I've got 'BLEACH'!" I held a bottle of the holy substance that is the very reason that this very fan fiction exists.
"No, just no." he sighed and left.
