Kiyoshi watched sadly as Rukia was raised high above their heads.

No others but himself and Nav-I were watching. He turned his eyes to Soi.

"Mama?" Soi hummed to show she was listening.

"Where's Mommy?"

"I don't know." Soi glanced to Retsu's open stop. "Isane?"

"Yes ma'am?" Isane kept her eyes forward.

"Where is Unohana?"

"I don't know miss."

Soi hummed and kept her eyes straight ahead. Where was that woman!?

Kiyoshi looked around and decided it was best to set his plan in action. He wouldn't help Rukia escape.

He would leave that to Yoruichi and the others.

'Time to slip away.'

He took his chance and slipped away from the captains and lieutenants.

Turning he took off at a sprint and jumped off the cliff edge.

Kiyoshi had no fear of falling. Nav-I tinged at his shoulder to show she was there.

As he got closer he knew where he had to go. He remember the captain Aizen…he had come into his Mama's division.

Kiyoshi remembered he came in…dead. But something didn't feel right about it. He was going to find out why.

"Nav-I!"

"Hai" the creature sped down below him and expanded into a type of very large flat bed.

Kiyoshi landed lightly and bounced a bit. He giggled before becoming serious. Well…as serious as a five year old could be.

"Let's go Nav-I!"

"Hai" She shifted into a large purple-blue wolf.

They sped off!

Nobody saw them pass by and take a steep dive downward.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

Unohana finally appeared. She looked around. "Soi?"

The other captain looked over to her with questioning eyes.

"Where's Kiyoshi?"

"He left." She had known he slipped away. He wasn't as keen as he thought he was.

"Where did he go?" Retsu was starting to go into her motherly worry zone.

"He has Nav-I with him. He'll be fine." Soi turned her eyes forward again.

The Sokyoku (I think that's how it's spelled) was released. The officers showed no shock.

"That smarts a bit." Hotaru put in a thought as she blinked at the brightness. "Could use a tan though."

Soi smirked, but quickly swiped it away.

The spear began to change shape. "…A bird. Seems kinda classical." Hotaru piped up again.

"Poor Rukia." Isane whispered.

Yamamoto began a speech about the Sokyoku and delivering punishment.

Four did not hear him. They paid no mind to the old mans words. They held no importance.

The phoenix (I know that's what it is, so shut up!) reared back and lurched forward to kill Rukia.

Rukia closed her eyes as the heat became more intense. A shadow flashed by.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

All the captains and lieutenants present gawked as the Sokyoku was stopped in its tracks.

After no impact came immediately…Rukia slowly opened her eyes.

She gasped. She had been to the top of the tower…she had seen this person…as a statue.

Kimi smirked at Rukia's shocked face. "Calm down…we're here to help."

Rukia tried to speak…"I…go back! I don't need your help!"

Kimi continued to smirk. "No need for snippetry. We're going to help you."

"No! Go away…they'll kill you!!"

"They can do nothing to me…no shut up and let me get rid of this thing." Kimi's words were strong and did not waver.

Rukia noticed Kimi's eyes for the first time. A pale gold…but confident. "You…your blind?"

"Why does everyone think that?" Kimi rolled her eyes.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

The officers below stared on in amazement.

Soi…had expected Yoruichi or a human…not Lady Kimi. "There's no way."

The captain had believed the woman to be dead…she had never been let out of the tower when Soi was little.

Everyone just seemed to forget. But Soi had always remembered her…she was to much like Yoruichi to forget.

Unohana glanced to Soi. Did she know her?

Isane and Hotaru simply stood in shocked silence. Who could be that powerful?

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

Kimi jerked forward as the bird reared back, ready for another attack.

The Shihoin whipped around.

"Get out of here!" Rukia shouted.

Kimi kept a straight face. "Uh uh uh…I wouldn't do that if I was you." ( I love Hellboy!)

"You've got to stop!! You'll be torn to pieces!! …Stop!!" Why were they going through all this trouble?

The phoenix lurched forward once again…Kimi prepared to meet it head on.

Kimi fell back however…as a large rope shot up and wrapped itself around the birds neck.

Looking down she saw Ukitake with his two 'sub' lieutenants. "What are you doing!?"

The ill captain paid her no mind. Captain Kyoraku landed beside him with Nanao.

Ukitake pulled a shield like object from behind him. Kimi's eyes widened. How did that bastard get his hands on that!?

The elder Shihoin growled. "Damn! I can do this on my own! Back off and butt out!!" She shouted down. They were ruining the plan!

Her eyes turned to the other captains Soi Fong and Hotaru were moving away from the others. Unohana and Isane had disappeared completely.

Damn! She lashed out her left hand. A whip of light shot out and cut the ropes.

If they destroyed it…the people below could be seriously hurt.

Kyoraku hissed and looked to Ukitake. They had not expected that.

The phoenix let out a cry and flew over the Sokyoku rack.

Kimi smirked and flipped onto the rack above Rukia.

"What are you doing?" Rukia was trying to be as calm as she could. Not very easy in this situation.

"Just shut up and watch if your so curious." Kimi crouched down and touched her hands to the wood. (I don't know if that's what it is. But that's what it looks like.)

(Using some Naruto jutsu here ^_^!)

Kimi's eyes shined bright as she brought her hands away from the wood and stood. "Suiton Daibakufu no Jutsu!"

She pulled the moisture from the air and shot it at the rack just below her feet.

A very large chunk of it was blasted away.

"One more." Kimi flipped away to get a better shot. She didn't want Rukia hurt. "Zankuukyokuha!" She poured her spiritual pressure into the slicing air attack.

The blast actually shook the grounds below as the rack snapped and shattered. She actually made it to powerful and hit the ground bellow.

Nobody noticed the extent of the damage however, yet anyway…a bright flash of light had accompanied the blast. Flash bombs can really do a number on the eyes.

Rukia felt herself being pulled up and hefted onto something solid.

She blinked as the bright light died down. Rukia gave an 'eep' as she saw Kimi had placed her over her left shoulder.

"You know it's a good thing people don't listen to you much. People are here to help you…accept it."

Rukia looked away from Kimi.

There was a long silence as the other officers scrambled about trying to figure out what to do.

"Time to go." A very familiar voice came from behind them.

Kimi turned fully to figure out who it was. Rukia gasped.

"Captain Soi Fong!!"

Kimi smirked and looked back to the ruckus below.

Soi Fong and Hotaru stood with smiles on their faces. Hotaru's a bit more playful.

"Well…come on…it's time to get out of here. Before they follow us up." Soi Fong turned with her lieutenant and the two shot off the broken rack.

Kimi followed closely behind.

The rest of the problems on the cliff were Yoruichi and Ichigo's.

They needed to find Retsu, Kiyoshi (Nav-I), and Isane. As well as figure out what was really going on.
