Urahara had instructed each group thoroughly and sent them on their way to their specific quadrant, he held back Kira saying that he had a second job for the Vice Captain and that he would meet Hitsugaya and Yukina at the South West post shortly. Yuki and the young Captain began the walk to the South West Quadrant which was located right outside one of Yuki's favorite sweet shops.
"So you know Kurosaki?" Yuki asked attempting to make conversation.
"Aa, I'm assuming you do as well?" he asked, hands stuffed into his pocket.
"Mhm he's a nice kid," she stated fondly, Hitsugaya gave her a strange look.
"A nice kid?" he questioned with a raised eyebrow, "Is that all he is to you?"
Yukina snapped her head towards the white haired captain, "yeah, what makes you say that short stuff?"
The captain grew a stress marked, clearly irked at her statement, "Who are you calling short stuff? I was just asking because of the way you said it!"
Yuki sighed in defeat, "sorry I shouldn't have called you that. I'm just…agitated, I guess, I want to go to Hueco Mundo to make sure Ichigo doesn't get his ass beat and I need to deal with my sister, but Urahara's having me do this stuff."
Hitsugaya's glare softened a bit, "It's alright I guess, Yukina right?"
Yuki nodded, "Hey do you like sweets?"
Hitsugaya sweat dropped, "you know just because I'm young doesn't mean I like—"
"I didn't mean it like that, I meant that we're passing my favorite sweet shop and since Urahara-san put everyone to sleep we might as well take advantage of it."
Hitsugaya blinked, "I—uh isn't that stealing?"
Yuki laughed and pushed him, "Live a little Shirou-kun of course it's stealing."
"I'll pass it's dishonorable," he huffed crossing his arms.
"Suit yourself—"
"And don't call me Shirou-kun, it's Hitsugaya-Taicho."
"Ha! I'll be damned if I ever call anyone a Taicho who hasn't been my Taicho, sorry Shirou-kun, nice try!" She laughed before pushing the candy store door opened, Hitsugaya reluctantly followed.
"I can't believe you're doing this, aren't you elder's supposed to be setting an example?" he asked with a frown.
"Example this," Yuki turned around quickly tugging on her right eye until Hitsugaya could see the red and stuck her tongue out.
"Very mature," he rolled his eyes.
"So is this," she said as held the first layer of her skirt and filled it with candy. "C'mon cap'm, let's get to our post."
They crossed the street to see Kira waiting for them, "Hey where have you been I've been waiting for like ten minutes."
"Oh you know, just got lost on the path of life," Yuki sighed dreamily.
"Don't let her fool you she was stealing candy," Hitsugaya interjected earning him a slap on the back of the head from Yukina. "Hey!"
"Oh don't worry Hitsugaya-Taicho, I wouldn't I was Nerru Taicho's lieutenant for fifty years. I know all her tricks," Kira chuckled.
"you don't know all my tricks Izuru-baka," the former captain argued.
"Well I know most of them," he grinned, "come on let's get into position we're supposed to be starting now."
The three shinigami stood side by side in the street waiting for their cue, Yuki happily munched on her candy and felt Hitsugaya eying it. "You sure you don't want any?"
"Yes," he answered curtly but was proven wrong by the growl in his stomach causing him to blush.
"Here," Yuki shoved a giant piece of candy into the boy's mouth so that he couldn't protest, and he chomped it happily.
"Alright there he is," Kira stated looking up to the most tallest building to see Urahara standing, clothes ruffling in the wind as he held his hat down.
"Gate one first kaen (flame)," he called out within a few moments there a blue flame shot into the sky from the North East quadrant. "Second Kaen," A red flame shot into the sky accompanying the blue, "Third Kaen!" the last flame was a dark black that Yuki knew only Tessai could create, she smiled slightly, it was almost like old times.
Urahara turned to the left is back still facing them, "Gate two first Kaze (wind)," a stationary tornado shot into the sky, "Second Kaze!" another tornado flew up, "Third Kaze!" the last tornado shot into the sky and then the three began to rotate in a small circle.
The shop keep turned to face the south east, "Gate three, first daichi (earth)," a tree burst out of the ground causing Yuki to almost loose her balance, " second daichi," this time a solid rectangle of earth shot into the air, "third daichi!" a sheet of metal rocketed into the sky.
Kisuke then turned to her group, "Gate four first Nami (wave),"
Kira made the hand seals of the rat, monkey, and dog, " Seki ichi yugi kai (gate one vapor release)," a tower of vapor soared far into the heavens.
"Gate four second Nami," Urahara's called.
Hitsugaya shoved his zanpakuto into the ground and made the hand seals of the sheep, horse and ox, "Seki ni hi kai (gate two ice, release)," a pillar of ice sprung out of the ground where his zanpakuto was.
"Gate four third Nami,"
Yuki made the signs of the rabbit, dog, and pig, "Seki san Nami Kai (Gate three wave, release)," she slammed her palm onto the road and the air began to collect in front of her face quickly forming water. The droplets began to grow rapidly until morphed into a wave and yuki directed the wave to revolve around the water vapor and ice.
"Yon Seki fuu, sou (four gates seal, activate.)" Urahara's voice boomed to the four corners of the town before he mirrored Yuki's actions and slammed his palm down on the building. The elements began to draw near him and swirl over her, a bright flash of light blinded the thirteen shinigami when it dissipated the elements were now replaced by four pillars on each corner of the town.
"It was nice seeing you in action again Nerru-Taicho, I have to be going I'm protecting this pillar," Kira said before shun po-ing to the top of the pillar as Urahara used kido to make the pillar invisible.
"Nice meeting you Toshirou, I gotta get going to Heuco Mundo now, Ja." Hitsugaya turned just in time to see Yuki slice open a riff between worlds and jump in.
'Who is she?' he thought watching her disappear from sigh and the rip sealing it's self back together. That power only lied with someone pure evil, and yet Yuki was good…wasn't she?
