Hello people! Thank you for reviews :) Oh and one important thing - if at any moment you'll think I should change the rating, please tell me, 'cause I never know these things... I'd appreciate that.
This is chapter 21, I know it's long, but the idea just appeared in my head and I had to write it. Let's call it A Special Report Chapter, and you'll find out what I mean :) Read and review, please.
And I truly love Ulquiorra.
Dear Renji,
what a relief, you finally found Kyoraku-taicho! I was seriously worried! I'm sure everyone was happy to see him again, I mean he's a really nice captain. I hope no one will do something like this in future...
About Hisagi-fukutaicho – I was really thinking about this, but my conclusion is that I don't have creativity. As you suggested, I asked people from Karakura. Interesting experience.
Here's my "report".
TARGET 1: ICHIGO
"Ahem... Ichigo?" I started, mentally prepared that it was going to be a weird talk. Ichigo, who was washing dishes after the dinner, looked at me.
"Yes?"
"How would you..." I thought for a while, trying to find the best words. "If there was a girl you really liked, what would you do to make her your girlfriend?"
Long. And confusing.
Ichigo's jaw dropped and he turned red, still staring at me. I made the most innocent and puppy eyes I could.
"There is no such girl!" Ichigo shouted. Did I say something that there is?
"But if there was..."
"I'd tell her not to ask such embarrassing questions! Go torture someone else!"
Sometimes I really don't understand that guy... Well, he was no help, blame him, not me. I just had to leave the kitchen.
TARGET 2: KARIN
I met her in the hall. She was going out, so I went with her. She had a meeting and I decided to ask her and then go to Urahara Shoten.
"What did you do to Ichi-nii? He was cursing" Karin started.
"He's just being an idiot" seemed like it was enough for Karin. But not for me. "I asked him about one thing, but he's too stupid to come up with anything."
Karin giggled at this.
"As always" she commented. "Then what was the question?"
I opened my mouth to reply, but then I heard a familiar voice:
"Kuchiki?"
I and Karin turned to see the newcomer.
TARGET 3 (BY ACCIDENT): HITSUGAYA-TAICHO
"Taicho! That's even better!" I shouted. Never before would I think he knows the answer, but things have changed.
Hitsugaya-taicho ignored me and looked at Karin.
"You didn't say a thing about bringing others."
"She was going to Urahara, it's the same way."
I don't like being ignored.
"Taicho, how did you get Karin?"
Silence.
Now I know it was stupid.
Both Karin and Hitsugaya-taicho looked at me in a very strange way and I felt extremely uncomfortable.
"How did I what?" Hitsugaya-taicho asked.
I've never heard him talking in this special candy-sweet-Disney Junior tone before.
"How did he what?"
And here was the tone of anger.
TARGET 4 (SUSPICIOUS...): HINAMORI-FUKUTAICHO
As written above, Hinamori-fukutaicho appeared. I felt a bit like watching a soap opera, when somebody hears something he shouldn't.
"Who are you?" Karin asked and Hinamori-fukutaicho noticed the girl. Something in her eyes told me she knew she just met "this Karin".
"I'm Hinamori Momo" she introduced herself. "The best friend of Shiro-chan."
"Don't call me like that!"
"I see" Karin ignored Hitsugaya-taicho. "The one that wanted to kill him, right? I've heard about you."
Hinamori-fukutaicho twitched. Karin turned to me with a huge grin on her face.
"Coming back to your question. Toshiro got me 'cause he doesn't pretend anyone. I truly hope that helps." She grabbed Hitsugaya-taicho's hand and started to walk away. "Let's already go, Toshiro. Bye everyone!"
Hitsugaya-taicho blushed, not really understanding what had happened, but he went with Karin, muttering some goodbyes. I noticed he didn't release his hand, though.
I looked at Hinamori-fukutaicho, who was pretty shocked.
"She's mean..." she said, obviously about Karin.
"She's gone a bit too far, but she won" I replied. I felt it wasn't a good moment to ask your question, so I just cheered her up and went further.
TARGET 5: CIFER
When I stepped inside Urahara Shoten, I saw no one else but Ulquiorra Cifer sitting at a table and drinking tea.
"Good morning" I said, not sure how to act in front of him.
"Good morning" he said, turning to me.
I overcame the sudden need to laugh, when he looked at me with these sad eyes and "lines" below them. As always he looked like he was crying, seriously... And these colours...
I coughed and he narrowed his eyes.
"What brings you here, Kuchiki woman?"
And this Kuchiki woman thing.
Don't get me wrong, I like that man, he's just a bit different.
"Looks like Inoue likes you."
"I guess so" Cifer replied suspiciously.
"Why?" I asked. "I mean, what qualities does she value in you? Or what did you do to catch her attention?"
As always, I was given a weird look.
"I was giving her food three times a day."
Don't get mad, but I decided to end this talk.
TARGETS 6 AND 7: URAHARA AND YORUICHI
In another room I found them playing cards. They noticed me immediately.
"Ah, Kuchiki-san!" Urahara stood up quickly, Yoruichi followed him. "Wanna buy something?"
"Not this time" I replied, shaking my head. "I've got a question, but please don't think I'm strange or something."
"We? Never" Yoruichi said with a smile on her face. "Go ahead."
"How can a boy make a girl love him?"
Yoruichi and Urahara glanced at each other.
"He should invite her to his house..." Yoruichi started.
"...and suggest a sleepover" Urahara ended.
"Sleep?" Yoruichi asked, truly surprised, she and Urahara laughed loudly and forgot about me.
"Who the f**k woke me up?"
TARGET 8 (UNLUCKILY): JEAGERJAQUEZ
I thought we really should get rid of him already and ran away.
I know I forgot to ask him. Still, you have three ideas, don't you? I must tell you that I was hurt because of this mission. Ichigo didn't talk to me for the rest of the day and Karin was irritated and she was shouting at everybody including me.
So appreciate my effort, understood?
Long letter, I know, but I think that's all.

PS. You really should be proud of me.
