"She has Tenteikura. How would a shinigami have that which she is not strong enough to cast, and why? Captain Kyoraku, do you know anything about this?" Isuin was unable to move inside her own body.

" Not at all. I don't make a habit of pulling up my subordinates sleeves." Someone scoffed.

"She mentioned the name Kazuma… Does anyone know this person? Does he exist or is he some dream she made up?" She didn't want them talking about her like this.

'Please leave... say something else.'

"Be silent. I believe she is aware of her surroundings. Release the spell." As if blindness unfolded she could suddenly see once more. Around her stood her captain, Genrei, Captain Kuchiki and Yamamoto. She feared worse matters were to come.

Why are they all here, why are they looking at me like this? Has Yamamoto Taicho-sama told them? I feel... sick.

"Good morning Isuin. Do you feel well?" Yamamoto called her by her alias and her fears slightly subsided. "I hope you feel better than before. I would allow this to wait if it was not a concern, but I must ask you what happened while in the Kuchiki main house." His face was gentle, but she could tell he was restraining his true disposition and was very concerned.

"I…I… It was like someone had jumped into my body and pushed me out. I could hear and see, yet I was unable to do anything. She was there…" She lifted her hand and touched with a finger her Zanpakuto. "She did this… I was learning from Kuchiki Genrei-sama when I just felt… like letting go. Like giving up. That was when something inside… it was like something broke and she took over. I couldn't do anything. She froze everything and then she attacked Genrei-sama…. I'm so sorry Kuchiki Genrei-sama, forgive me for being so weak." Yamamoto set a hand on her shoulder to calm her.

"It is alright. I do not lay blame with you. I have explained… some things to the Captains and as much as you would have preferred otherwise I have explained of your background." Her insides shrunk.

"I beg forgiveness for my deceiving you all."

"Yes, Genrei has also explained somewhat of the nature behind your Zanpakuto. As of right now, only the captains and their lieutenants know of your identity. This information, for now, will not be wide spread information. I have also commanded you into the care of Genrei for the time, and transferred you to another Squad." Isuin turned to Kyoraku to confirm.

"What? No, please, do not do this." She sat forward and felt the tingle of cool air. "I'm sorry. Let me breath for a moment. The slightest change in composure and it seems I give her a way in…"

"I am glad you understand this. We have not set you aside to be forgotten and Genrei has requested to teach you what he can. He seems to have the most understanding and knowledge about your Zanpakuto and I am pleased to see he would help. I have deceived to have you shifted over to Captains Zaraki's squad for training as well. He also has a very strong Reitsu that needs suppressing and training with him will allow, hopefully a better control of the power that does not seem to lessen like I'd hoped earlier on." She shivered at Zaraki's name.

"Is there no other Captain that would accept me?" Yamamoto looked puzzled and then understood her fear, but he really didn't. She didn't have blood running through like a normal person, it was ice.

"I recall having to deter him from you before. Although he cannot sense Reitsu himself, vice captain Yachiru can. She was able to sense you and that gave way to Zaraki's… high interest. I have informed him that he is not to treat you as some toy and that this matter is of utmost seriousness." She was not convinced in the slightest.

"What of my Reitsu? Am I somehow contained?" Again the air seemed to chill, but only because of their silence this time.

"We have received a good insight into your… condition. Zaraki having brought it to our attention left me rather… at a dead end. You can no longer wear the 'soul eater' to take down your Reitsu. Zaraki explained that someone of your… inner power cannot be taken down by such means. That the Reitsu that comes out of you is unstable when having it constantly drained. By draining it Zaraki has said that your body has trained to build more Reitsu to make up for what has been taken away. It is like training the muscle in your body. You add more weight and built more; well, in your case the more we took away the more your body created Reitsu to make up for it." Isuin was confused and her head begun to pulse with the oncoming headache.

"So what's going to happen to me till I can control this? I can't wear the 'soul eater' any more, but what about everyone else? My friends, training? What will I do, where might I stay?" Yamamoto's face did not please her none the least. "You're going to lock me away aren't you?" She pulled herself from her bed and with difficultly walked towards the door to leave. She was being rude and showing her back to the Captains and on top of that Yamamoto would bode ill, but she was not going to listen to this anymore.

"Where are you going? You cannot go outside of these walls." She stopped and left the door open. She felt the tingle of spell work and knew he was right. They would not allow her to just walk out.

"Allow me to return to my house. I refuse to sit holed up in this place for your benefit. This is most unbecoming for a head of the Shihoin house despite their background." She was spitting venom practically in their face. "I am Yoruichi's' cousin, not Yoruichi. I refuse to be treated as some kind of renegade traitor." Captain Kyoraku seemed impressed enough and stepped beside her where as Kuchiki-Taicho looked most unimpressed.

"She does have a point. I wonder what the outcome of something like this would be if the greater people heard about this… if we continue as we planned. I can think of a few things that could suffice so long as she sticks to them without fail." He tipped his hat back and closed his eyes as if not caring whether they went for his idea or not.

"What do you think Captain Kuchiki?" Genrei looked at his grandson and she waited on what seemed like a guillotines master to haul back and swing.
