Tairei9: I can't sleep right now so I'm going to start writing this story. Most likely won't finish it until tonight, but still. Alright the disclaimer… oh wait I already did that. Well anyway, for the people who guessed and got it right. I will tell you that there is more behind it. Just wait for the rest to come. And it was suppose to be simple, because no one usually expects Aizen to think like that.
Chapter seven.
Kumiko finished eating her meal as Matsumoto and Hinamori laughed.
"Yeah, he was so funny," Matsumoto laughed having another drink. Hinamori looked at Kumiko and then said, "So… Kumiko?"
"Yeah," Kumiko said pushing her plate away.
"We heard from Yachiru-chan what happened," Hinamori said seriously, "We just have to know."
"Know what," Kumiko sighed weakly.
"What did you do to piss them off?"
"Oh well for one I stole the thing back, two I pretty much destroyed Las Noches, and three… well… he just doesn't like me."
"Geez, you were so mischievous," Matsumoto commented, then frowned, "But why didn't they do anything?"
"I'm not sure," Kumiko said, "But I'll tell you this. He is weird."
"Yeah," Hinamori said, "I remember that he used to do things in five!"
"Five?"
"Yeah, he would always make five piles of paper work, had five cabinets in the office, have five plants on the window sill, he said five was a good number!"
"Geez girls," she said smiling, "How did we get stuck with weird men?"
"Dunno," Kumiko said sighing, "I guess we're just magnets."
"AHAHAHAHAHAHA! Magnets!" Matsumoto said laughing.
"She drunk isn't she?" Hinamori said.
"Yep," Kumiko said, and said, "Well, it's time for bed!"
"Yeah, come one let's get her to bed safe and sound," Hinamori said and they helped Matsumoto to her room.
"Phew!" Kumiko said shutting the guest room door, "Well good night…Hinamori?"
Hinamori looked quite sad.
"Well Kumiko-san…it's just that…I wanted to reassure… that I am over Aizen… and I would never… never ever… well you know…"
"Hinamori-chan," Kumiko said, "You most likely would not be here right now if I didn't know that. And I don't mean that as a threat. I know you would never do that."
Hinamori looked at Kumiko and found her eyes were full of understanding.
"You're stronger, Hinamori. He's already lost control in your mind." Kumiko said walking past and down the hall, "Just keep him out of it."
Kumiko walked over to her bedroom window and looked up at the sky. It was normal. She sat on her bed and sighed. She let her hair loose and slipped under the covers.
Knowing she had a long few days ahead.
Scene change
Yoruichi walked down the hall three months later extremely moody. She had been for a while. Everything was calm since the Sakura Grove thing. (Haha guess who was never told!) But she was still moody and no one knew why.
"Perhaps she isn't sleeping enough," one murmured and ended up getting hit on the head.
"I'm fine! Now shut up!"
"Geez," she muttered, "Why is everyone so concerned!"
"Because you've nearly severely hurt five servants, successfully knocked out two of them, and seem very upset."
She flung around to see Byakuya standing there.
"Well it's their fault for bugging me!"
"As much as I sympathize with you," Byakuya murmured, "You are being cranky. Are you not feeling well?"
"…not really," she murmured.
"Then perhaps you should go see Unohana Taichou," he suggested tenderly. She sighed reluctantly but nodded. She gave him a peck on the cheek and left. He heard many sighs of relief and he glared at the servants, and they were scared once more.
"You all really should stop talking about her when she's in a foul mood."
"H-Hai…"
Scene change
Kumiko was sitting with Urahara when Matsumoto burst in.
"Come on Kumiko!" She dragging her off the sofa, "We're going shopping!"
"Ummm, what for?"
"Rukia's wedding and tonight we're are going out!"
"Who?"
"You, Hinamori, and I!"
"Umm to where?"
"We are going out to a dance club! We've been working hard! We need a break! Urahara can come too!"
"No thanks!" he said laughing, "Just you girls!"
"Okay! Hurry up! Rukia is waiting for us!"
"Jerk," Kumiko said and he chuckled.
"Not my fault!"
Kumiko sighed. She hurried outside and found herself being dragged off.
"Come on!" Matsumoto said dragging all the way to the mall.
"Rangiku! Stop dragging her and come look at this with me!"
"Okay!"
Kumiko found herself sitting watching Rukia try on many wedding outfits, much to her chagrin. If there was one thing she didn't like…
…it was shopping with other girls.
"Ohhhhhhhhh! This is so adorable! Come Kumiko! We have to look at stuff for us!"
"Now where is this wedding supposed to be?" Kumiko asked ever so slightly irritated.
"Here in the real world," Hinamori whispered.
"Oh." Kumiko played with strand of her hair and Matsumoto held out a dress in front of her.
"Isn't it beautiful?"
It was dark velvet green. It had no sleeves but came with white silk long gloves.
"It's pretty…"
"Good! Go try it on!"
"W-Wait a sec! How do you know this is my size!"
"It's a gift!"
"Damn," she muttered and put it on. Amazingly it fit. She finished pulling on the gloves when she heard, "Kumiko! Come out! I want to see it!"
"Coming, coming!"
Kumiko came out and heard happy squeals.
"Oh, it's so pretty!"
"I agree!"
"My Kumiko! You look great!"
"Alright already," Kumiko said twitching, "Go get the bride her wedding dress."
She went back in and changed. She tried to slip away but was stopped by Hinamori.
"Oh come on, Kumiko-chan," she said, "I know you hate shopping with us, but please, put up with it this once!"
So Kumiko sat until everyone had everything they needed. They then said goodbye to Rukia and went off to another store.
"Here we are!" Matsumoto said dragging the two girls into a very different store. Instead of gowns and dresses, there were jeans, shirts, plainer dresses, heck name it and it's in there.
"Come on lets get something for tonight!"
"Where exactly are we going?"
"I found this really cool dance club and I think it would be nice to get out!" Matsumoto said smiling. Kumiko rolled her eyes and sighed.
Today was going to be a very long day.
Scene change
"Kisuke!"
"Ah that sounds like Yoruichi-san!" Urahara said.
"Kisuke, where is Kumiko!"
"She went out with Rangiku-chan and Hinamori-chan," Urahara said, "Geez Yoruichi, do ever just come to visit me any more?"
"I do, I just need to talk to her," Yoruichi said, "It's important."
"Oh? Work related?"
"No, no family matters," Yoruichi said.
"What's wrong?"
"Well, there nothing wrong…"
"Then what's the matter?"
"Well…"
"Any luck?" Byakuya came in still in gigai.
"Aha! Kuchiki-san!" Urahara said cheerfully, "It must be important if you're here."
"No she's not here," Yoruichi said ignoring Urahara.
"I see," Byakuya said, and then turned his attention to Urahara, "Do you know where she is?"
"Yeah," Urahara said waving his face, "She went to a club with Hinamori-chan and Rangiku-chan"
"They didn't tell you which one?"
"Nope," Urahara said turning away. Yoruichi frowned and said, "You're lying…"
"I've been ordered not to say a word," Urahara said simply.
"By whom may I ask," Yoruichi snapped, now fed up, "You never were one to follow orders."
"True… but I would rather not get my but kicked thank you very much."
"Fine, we'll just go find out our selves," Yoruichi huffed and the two couple ran of. Urahara shouted after them but they paid no heed to him. He groaned and mumbled, "Damn it."
Scene change
Kumiko watched as the waiter put their drinks on the table.
"Will that be all miss?" he asked.
"Yeah!" Matsumoto said smiling big. The waiter left and they each took their drink.
"To not working!" Matsumoto said raising her glass in the air and then drinking it. Hinamori and Kumiko laughed. They each to a sip and Hinamori said, "Geez look at all these people dancing! And the music is so loud!"
"Yeah, what is every one deaf?" Kumiko said smiling and looked over her shoulder, with the same arm resting on top of the cushioned seat. The other two laughed and Kumiko said, "Shikashi, there is something weird about this place."
Shikashi: but, however.
"Ne, don't concentrate so much," Rangiku said waving her hand around. Then she felt someone tap her on the shoulder. She looked behind her and saw three guys standing there.
"Hiya," one said to Rangiku, "Care to dance?"
"Sure," she said with a smile. She took his hand and the other held his hand out to Hinamori. She shyly took it and the two disappeared onto the dance floor. The other one looked at her smiling and asked, "Were you dragged here also?"
"Eh?" Kumiko said shocked for a moment and said, "Yeah…"
"Mind if I sit down?"
She thought for and moment and then smirked.
"Sure," she said closing her eyes.
He sat across from her and glanced over at the other two dancing.
"So your friends seem to be having fun."
"Yep," she said her eyes still closed.
"So where do you live?"
"Cut to the chase," Kumiko said, "I'm not stupid… Aizen."
She opened her eyes and Aizen was sitting right across from her.
"My, my," he said, "That wasn't very nice."
"Since when I have I been nice to you," Kumiko said flatly, "What is this like the fifth warning?"
He chuckled and said, "I've already done the fifth warning."
"What… do you mean…?" Kumiko said frowning.
Tairei9: BUMBUMBUM! What do you think he means? Hahaha! Why am I laughing? I don't know… I'm just laughing. Review!
