I don't speak fluent English but I'm trying my best.

YOSH! Let's get it on!

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach, and if I was, I'll be ending up Byakuya and Rukia together :3


The head of the Onmitsukido, was seating elegantly on her quarters while reading some reports about district 7 incidence. "This is no ordinary killings I guess", she mumbled under her breath. Waiting for another report from her subordinates, she's also doing research. A new order was made by Yoruichi recently, one or two of her men are sent out once a week every midnight to do some research on each districts and see if there are short comings. Majority of the officials in the palace doesn't report anything related to the citizens, good or bad. So it's up to the emperor's advisors to take charge in the shadows. But in this case, district 7 killings caught the attention of some officials which in Yoruichi's mind thought that those old geezers felt threaten. Suddenly, two of her men shunpo-ed infront of her with their knees bent and heads bowed down.

"Yoruichi-sama.."

"What's that status of the district?", her golden eyes fixed on the people in front of her, waiting for a good report.

"When we did our rounds, there are no negative energy lurking in the area. People are at peace, although females, young and old are agitated because of the incident. No report of males have been killed, only females."

Yoruichi slouched in her seat with her right hand placed on her cheek, thinking what would be their next move. "We're getting nowhere in this case..". She summoned a hell butterfly. It flew and landed on her right forefinger. She looked at her men with serious golden eyes, "continue to observe the district in shadows and report to me immediately if something unusual happens.." she sighed and added, "take care".

"Yes, Yoruichi-sama!", and the two figure disappeared. With the hell butterfly in her hand, she muttered, "only girls eh? That's kinda racist" and with that she gave her report to all advisors and the emperor.


"Hallooooooooooooooooooo~", a nerve popped at Byakuya's head when the hell butterfly landed on his finger. "This woman"

"Ehem.. ehem.. Sadly, my men haven't gotten any lead on the killer in district 7 however, they said that females, whatever their age bracket may be are all quite disturbed. Oh and by the way, the negative energy that the Research and Development Institute found? It was already gone. So I'm thinking, is the killer on the run already? Lurking somewhere waiting for the prey? I have my eyes on the district during midnight. We still need reports on this one to make sure. This one is quite scary and disturbing."

The butterfly flew away at the end of Yoruichi's message. He sighed at massage his temples, "females..". The first thing that comes in his mind is Rukia. That stubborn but beautiful girl, he must warn her before she gets the idea to investigate it by herself. For the last months that she stayed in his palace, although she looked like a bride, her inner self radiates her curiosity and knowledge about things. He decided to go to Rukia first before thinking another move, maybe she have a better advice on this one.

He stood up and straighten his clothes and walked up to his concubine's chamber. On his arrival, her personal servant bowed down to give respect. "Where's Rukia?", his monotone voice yet gorgeous face doesn't seem to affect her. "I'm sorry Byakuya-sama, Rukia-sama left the chambers few hours ago. She said she'll be strolling for a while."

"Strolling? A few hours ago?" His face is stoic but his voice is full of concern. Where the heck did she go?

"Yes Byakuya-sama, but I think she went outside the palace to go to some place. I don't know what she's thinking but that's what I felt when she left. She was dress in a commoner with a sakkat on her head. Please Byakuya-sama, find her. I can't say "no" when she's giving me those puppy eyes.." she sighed. "I also informed Jyuushiro-sama and her brothers about the situation". And with that, Byakuya shunpo-ed away from the chamber. Yumi entered the chamber and quickly removed his "palace servant" clothes, revealing a black suit just like the onmitsukido wears. "I'll still be watching you oujo-sama. I promised the Ukitake clan to serve and protect you always".

Byakuya arrived at the back of his chamber, he remove his kenseikans and change his clothes to the one that he uses when he's personally investigating something outside the palace. A regular gray kimono and hakama. He tied his hair in a low ponytail and wore a sakkat over it.

"Just what are you doing Byakuya?", Kaoru was sitting above the roof looking at him in glee.

"I'm going to investigate district 7 if you don't mind", he replied.

"Uh-huh.. I doubt that.", he teased. He lay his back on the roof to get some sleep. ".. Just be back before the old geezers find you out".

"Just back me up when needed"

"Yes, your highness", he replied smiling to himself. Without another word, Byakuya left his best friend behind. "Good work Rukia, for taming that young beast", he said.


Rukia looked around the district with curiosity on her eyes, "It seems like the neighborhood is at peace". She continue to walk around the area. With her looks and attitude, no one can tell that she's a noble. On the alley, she spotted a seller selling sweets. She looked at those cute and colorful candies but what caught her attention is those jaw dropping dangos. With her shaky hands due to excitement, she reached those dango skewers and ask for the price. The lady smiled at Rukia, "That will be 9 bronze young lady". Rukia nodded and gave her payment. While taking her stroll, she bite her first dango. She suddenly exclaimed, "DELICIOOOOOUS!". Looking left and right, doing her inspection and research, "This..is..good. Maybe I should do this in the palace", she mumbled.

Rukia bumped into a fairly tall man with long black hair tied in his back with grey slate eyes. He appeared to be a young man in his early twenties. He smiled behind his sakkat and bent over and held out his hand to help Rukia, who fall down to her bottoms.

"Are you okay Miss?"

Rukia stood up with her head down, brushing her bottoms and the other parts of her clothing. "Nah.. It's cool. Don't wo—" and then she looked up, a stoic expression greeted her. Rukia squinted in annoyance and took his hand to get up. "Seriously, what is he doing here?"

"Thank you.. SIR", She stressed out the word SIR to send her greetings to him.. with irritation. Nearly forgotten her food. "MY DANGOs! Thank goodness they're all right."

"You're more concern in your dangos than yourself?"

She scoffed and walk straight ahead, leaving Byakuya behind. "THAT.. is none of your concern young man" Rukia finished her dangos while taking a stroll, beside her is the young emperor in disguise. There are times that she glance once in a while to see his reaction. She threw the sticks to the nearest trash bin and spoke in a low voice, "Have you found anything?".

"None, Yoruichi said that the reported negative energy had already disappeared. Also, I, myself haven't felt something strange. They all seemed alright."

"just what I expected.." she took a deep breath and explained, "I have a theory that a certain man is the reason".

"How can you say that?", Byakuya asked with interest

"Well, let's just say that the mere fact that ONLY women died in this case. Koenma is quite astounding man, he looked younger in his actual age. Women can fight over to get him even if he already have his family. And also, in this district, the prevalent of females is quite high"

"But they're only females", he said in a low tone. In a monarchy like this, the use of woman can only be seen inside the household, tending children and such.

Rukia send a death glare to the emperor, "Only females? You can't be sure what they are capable of. Experiencing madness jealousy, pain and the likes can turn a sweet girl into a monster. Remember that".
